TerraForm has granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to a further 6.75 million shares at the original IPO price.

Furthermore TerraForm Global will also receive gross proceeds of US$67.5 million from the sale of shares of Class A common stock in connection with a concurrent private placement transaction at a price per share equal to the IPO price.

TerraForm intends to use the proceeds of the IPO and proceeds from the private placement transactions to acquire newly-issued Class A units of TerraForm Global, LLC (Global LLC).

Global LLC will use proceeds and cash on hand, combined with an $810 million senior unsecured notes offering of TerraForm Global Operating, LLC, to repay all outstanding indebtedness under its bridge facility, to pay pending acquisition consideration, repay project-level indebtedness, and general corporate purposes, which could include acquisitions of renewable energy assets from SunEdison or other unaffiliated third parties.
