General Terms and Conditions for the Sunrun Inc. Non-Customer Referral Program

Updated: April 13, 2021

This agreement sets forth the general terms and conditions (the “Terms and Conditions”) which apply to participation in the Sunrun Inc. (“Sunrun”) Non-Customer Referral Program (the “NC Referral Program”).  Participation in the NC Referral Program is considered acceptance of these Terms and Conditions. The NC Referral Program shall only be valid during the Promotional Period, which runs from October 1, 2019 to December 31, 2025.

Sunrun reserves the right to both change these Terms and Conditions from time to time and/or to terminate the NC Referral Program at any time and without prior notice. Specific dates of the Promotional Period are set forth in the referral program guidelines which may be published from time to time (the “Referral Program Guidelines”). 

In the event of a conflict between these Terms and Conditions and any Referral Program Guidelines, the terms of the Referral Program Guidelines shall apply with respect only to (i) the Promotional Period and (ii) the Eligibility Requirements for Participants and Referees, including but not limited to certain criteria of residence. The failure by Sunrun to enforce any provision of these Terms and Conditions shall not constitute a waiver of that provision.

PARTICIPANT ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS: The NC Referral Program is open to individuals who are not customers of Sunrun (the “Participant” or “Participants”), i.e. they (i) have not received a fully-executed Customer Agreement with Sunrun (“Customer Agreement”) countersigned by Sunrun (“Sunrun Sign Off”) and (ii) do not have an active complete photovoltaic system designed, engineered, procured, constructed, installed, tested, commissioned, and started-up (“Solar Facility”). Additional eligibility requirements may apply. By submitting the full name and phone number of an individual interested in becoming a Sunrun customer (the “Referee”) for participation in the NC Referral Program, each Participant agrees to the Terms and Conditions set forth herein.

Sunrun reserves the right to modify, limit or restrict participation in the Referral Program to any person at any time for any reason and without notice. Participant eligibility shall be determined by Sunrun in its sole discretion. A Participant’s time of entry into the Referral Program will be determined by Sunrun in its sole discretion.

The following individuals and entities are not eligible to participate in the Referral Program: Sunrun affiliates, including, without limitation, subsidiaries, advertising agencies, promotion agencies, fulfillment agencies, lead generation agencies, suppliers, distributors, attorneys and agents of Sunrun, Sunrun employees, on-site contractors acting in an equivalent capacity to employees, shareholders, officers, directors, and the immediate family members of and those living in the same household as such individuals.

REFEREE ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS: Unless otherwise stated in the applicable Referral Program Guidelines, each Referee must (i) live within a state that Sunrun services, (ii) own his or her residence, (iii) sign a Customer Agreement with Sunrun and receive Sunrun Sign Off by a specified date, and (iv) be legally capable of entering into contracts (the “Eligibility Requirements”). If a Referee does not meet one or more Eligibility Requirement, the Participant shall not be eligible for a Referral Reward (defined below) for the unqualified Referee.

REFERRAL SUBMISSION RULES: Certain non-Sunrun customers will receive an invitation to participate in the NC Referral Program. To be eligible for the NC Referral Program, a Participant must—prior to either the date the Referee first contacts Sunrun to discuss a quotation for service, or the date he or she is first contacted by a Sunrun representative—submit the Referee’s First Name, Last Name, and Phone Number (the “Required Information”) (i) to a Sunrun Sales Representative or (ii) via a dedicated email address, landing page on the Sunrun corporate website designated by Sunrun from time to time, or by creating a Sunrun Ambassador account and entering the Required Information  at https://sunrun.getambassador.com.

Required Information submitted through alternate channels will not be accepted. All Required Information must be accurate and sufficient such that Sunrun or one of its partners or affiliates may prepare a quotation for service to the Referee’s home within 30 (thirty) days after expiration of the Promotional Period. The Terms of Use applicable to Participants’ use of Sunrun’s website can be found at http://www.sunrun.com/terms-of-service.

A Referee may not have been referred to Sunrun previously, as reflected in Sunrun’s records. If a Referee is referred by multiple Participants, the first Participant to submit the Required Information, based on the date and time of the submission (as determined by Sunrun in its sole discretion) shall be the only Participant entitled to receive a Referral Reward.

A Participant may not refer someone who lives in the same household as the Participant, provided, however, that a Participant may refer himself or herself or someone in his or her household if the Participant has multiple homes and has not previously submitted information for home(s) not subject to a Customer Agreement with Sunrun (“Second Home Referee”). Participants who submit Second Home Referees will only receive a Referral Reward with respect to the Second Home Referee’s residence as of the date of the referral.

REFERRAL REWARDS:  Unless otherwise stated in the applicable Referral Program Guidelines, a Participant who refers a Referee who (i) meets the Referee Eligibility Requirements, (ii) signs a Sunrun Customer Agreement and receives Sunrun Sign Off within one (1) year of the date of the referral and (iii) pays any upfront and deposit fees associated with the Solar Facility, shall receive a referral reward to be issued in a form to be determined in the sole discretion of Sunrun (the “Referral Reward”) such as a prepaid or gift card issued by U.S. Bank National Association pursuant to a license from Visa U.S.A. Inc. Referral Rewards are non-transferrable, not for resale, not for use automated gas pumps and not redeemable for cash. Reward Cards expire six (6) months after issuance. Visit http://www.sunrun.com/mysunrun-Rewards/CHAgreement to review the cardholder agreement and all terms and conditions of use.

The Participant shall receive the Referral Reward within ninety (90) days from the date that installation has begun on the Referee’s Sunrun Solar Facility (or as otherwise provided for in the applicable offer), provided that the Referee has paid any upfront and deposit payments associated with the Solar Facility.

Referral Rewards may be taxable, depending on the value of the item and the federal, state, and local tax laws applicable to the Participant. Participants are solely responsible for reporting such items on their tax returns and paying any associated tax liability. If Sunrun’s delivery of a Referral Reward will require Sunrun to issue Participant a 1099, Sunrun’s obligation to make the Referral Reward shall be conditioned upon receipt from Participant of any required tax documentation necessary to issue the 1099.
