Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 3, 2025, Cardinal Purchaser LLC (the “Clearway Purchaser”), a subsidiary of Clearway Energy LLC (the “Company”), entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Clearway Purchase Agreement”) with Deriva Energy, LLC (“Deriva Seller”), Symphony Breeze, LLC (“Breeze Seller”) and Symphony Sun, LLC (“Sun Seller”, and together with Deriva Seller and Breeze Seller, the “Sellers”). Pursuant to the terms of the Clearway Purchase Agreement, Clearway Purchaser will acquire from Sellers all of the limited liability company membership interests in each of Deriva Energy NC Solar, LLC, Clear Skies Solar Holdings, LLC, Washington Millfield Solar, LLC, Deriva Energy Solar I, LLC and Washington Airport Solar, LLC (collectively, the “Target Companies”) for a base purchase price of approximately $225.8 million in cash, subject to certain customary price adjustments (the “Clearway Transaction”). The Target Companies are engaged in the business of managing, owning and operating utility-scale solar energy generation projects generating approximately 386 megawatt alternating current (“MWac”) throughout the United States.

On October 3, 2025, Cardinal JV Purchaser LLC (the “Clearway JV Purchaser”), a subsidiary of the Company, Fengate Cardinal Blocker LLC (“Fengate Purchaser 1”), Fengate Yield (VCOC) UBTI Blocker LLC (“Fengate Purchaser 2”, together with Fengate Purchaser 1, the “Fengate Purchasers”, and together with Clearway JV Purchaser, the “JV Purchasers”), and Sellers entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “JV Purchase Agreement”, and together with the Clearway Purchase Agreement, the “Purchase Agreements”). Pursuant to the terms of the JV Purchase Agreement, (i) Clearway JV Purchaser will acquire from Sellers 50% of the limited liability company membership interests in each of Caprock Solar 2 LLC and two limited liability companies to be formed prior to closing (collectively, the “JV Target Companies”) for a base purchase price of approximately $79.5 million in cash, subject to certain customary price adjustments, and (ii) the Fengate Purchasers will collectively acquire the remaining 50% of the limited liability company membership interests in the JV Target Companies for a base purchase price of approximately $79.5 million in cash, subject to certain customary price adjustments (collectively, the “JV Transaction” and together with the Clearway Transaction, the “Transactions”). The JV Target Companies are engaged in the business of managing, owning and operating utility-scale solar energy generation projects generating approximately 227 MWac in California, New Mexico and Colorado.

The Purchase Agreements contain customary representations and warranties and covenants made by each of the parties. Except in the event of fraud, the representations and warranties will not survive the closing of the Transactions. Instead, Clearway Purchaser and the JV Purchasers have obtained a representation and warranty insurance policy, under which the issuer of such policy will insure Clearway Purchaser and the JV Purchasers against certain claims, damages or other losses arising from breaches by the Sellers of their representations and warranties in the Purchase Agreements, subject to certain limitations and exclusions and other customary terms and conditions.

The closing of the Transactions is subject to customary closing conditions and certain third-party actions. The closing of the Transactions is expected to occur during the first half of 2026.

The foregoing description of the Transactions and the Purchase Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreements, copies of which are filed as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.
