Investor Presentation

Definitions Earnings (loss) Before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization ("EBITDA") We define EBITDA as our consolidated net income (loss) and adding interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. We believe EBITDA provides meaningful information to the performance of our business and therefore we use it to supplement our GAAP reporting. We have chosen to provide this supplemental information to investors, analysts and other interested parties to enable them to perform additional analyses of operating results. Certain Additional Matters This presentation includes operational metrics such as number of customers, number of systems and Gross Portfolio Value, Contracted Portfolio Value and Renewal Portfolio Value. Gross Portfolio Value represents the sum of Contracted Portfolio Value, Renewal Portfolio Value and Uncontracted Renewable Energy Credits. Contracted Portfolio Value represents the present value of the remaining net cash flows discounted at 6% during the initial term of the company's customer agreements as of the measurement date. It is calculated as the present value of cash flows discounted at 6% that the company expects to receive from customers in future periods as set forth in customer agreements, after deducting expected operating and maintenance costs, equipment replacements costs, distributions to tax equity partners in consolidated joint venture partnership flip structures, and distributions to third party project equity investors. The calculation includes cash flows the company expects to receive in future periods from state incentive and rebate programs, contracted sales of solar renewable energy credits, and awarded net cash flows from grid service programs with utilities or grid operators. Renewal Portfolio Value is the forecasted net present value the company would receive upon or following the expiration of the initial customer agreement term, but before the 30th anniversary of the system's activation in the form of cash payments during any applicable renewal period for customers as of the measurement date. The company calculates the Renewal Portfolio Value amount at the expiration of the initial contract term assuming either a system purchase or a renewal and a 30-year customer relationship (although the customer may renew for additional years, or purchase the system), at a contract rate equal to 90% of the customer's contractual rate in effect at the end of the initial contract term. After the initial contract term, the company's customer agreements typically automatically renew on an annual basis and the rate is initially set at up to a 10% discount to then-prevailing utility power prices. These operational metrics are not necessarily comparable to the same or similar metrics as calculated by other companies. This presentation also contains market data, statistical data, estimates and forecasts that are based on independent industry publications or other publicly available information, as well as other information based on our internal sources. This information involves many assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to such information. Some data are also based on Spruce Power's good faith estimates, which are derived from its review of internal sources as well as the independent sources described above. Although Spruce Power believes these sources are reliable, we have not independently verified the accuracy or completeness of the information contained in the industry publications and other publicly available information. Accordingly, Spruce Power makes no representations as to the accuracy or completeness of that information nor do we undertake to update such information after the date of this presentation. spruce | 24
