Vivint Solar Vendor Communications
Email to Vendors:
Hi <Vendor exec>,
As you are likely aware, Sunrun announced its intention to acquire Vivint Solar earlier today. Were excited about the opportunities this
presentsto expand offerings to our customers, accelerate the adoption of Solar in the market, and create more meaningful partnerships in the industry.
We expect that the transaction will close during the fourth quarter of 2020 and in the meantime, the two companies will continue to operate as separate
entities until closing. As we go through this process, Im keen to ensure that business transactions continue as usual and want to reaffirm that <vendor> remains a key strategic partner to Vivint Solar.
Ive attached a copy of the press release from today. If helpful, I am happy to set up a call in the coming days to discuss any questions you may have.
Thanks,
Dana
