EXPLANATORY NOTE

8point3 Energy Partners LP (the “Partnership”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (this “Form 10-K/A”) to include in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2017 (the “Original 10-K”), pursuant to Rule 3-09 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, financial statements and related notes of SG2 Holdings, LLC (“SG2 Holdings”), NS Solar Holdings, LLC (“North Star Holdings”), and Parrey Holding Company, LLC (“Henrietta Holdings”), in which the Partnership owns a 49% interest, as well as Desert Stateline Holdings, LLC ("Stateline Holdings") in which the Partnership owns a 34% interest.

Rule 3-09 of Regulation S-X provides that if a 50% or less-owned person accounted for by the equity method meets the first or third condition of the significant subsidiary tests set forth in Rule 1-02(w) of Regulation S-X, substituting 20% for 10%, separate annual financial statements for such 50% or less-owned person corresponding to the periods covered by the financial statements of the Partnership included in the Original 10-K shall be filed. SG2 Holdings met the significance test in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015. North Star Holdings met the significance test in fiscal 2017 and 2015. Henrietta Holdings and Stateline Holdings met the significance test in fiscal 2017. As a result, the Partnership has included in this Form 10-K/A separate annual consolidated financial statements for these investees. The consolidated financial statements of SG2 Holdings and North Star Holdings are audited as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 and for the periods ended December 31, 2017, 2016, and 2015. Henrietta Holdings and Stateline Holdings are audited as of and for the periods ended December 31, 2017 and 2016. The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Item 15 is the only portion of the Original 10-K being supplemented or amended by this Form 10-K/A. Additionally, in connection with the filing of this Form 10-K/A and pursuant to SEC rules, the Partnership is including the consents of the independent auditors of SG2 Holdings, North Star Holdings, Henrietta Holdings and Stateline Holdings and currently dated certifications. This Form 10-K/A does not otherwise update any exhibits as originally filed and does not otherwise reflect events occurring after the original filing date of the Original 10-K. Accordingly, this Form 10-K/A should be read in conjunction with the Partnership’s filings with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Original 10-K.
