Item 8.01	Other Events.

On September 12, 2019, Hannon Armstrong Sustainable Infrastructure Capital, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), through its indirect subsidiaries HAT Holdings I LLC, a Maryland limited liability company (“HAT I”), and HAT Holdings II LLC, a Maryland limited liability company (“HAT II”, and together with HAT I, the “Issuers”), issued an additional $150 million aggregate principal amount of its 5.25% unsecured senior notes due 2024 (the “Additional Notes”) under the indenture, dated as of July 2, 2019 (the “Indenture”), between the Issuers and the Company, Hannon Armstrong Sustainable Infrastructure, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), and Hannon Armstrong Capital, LLC, a Maryland limited liability company (“HAC,” and collectively with the Company and the Operating Partnership, the “Guarantors”), as guarantors, and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The Additional Notes are additional notes and form part of the same series as the Company’s existing 5.25% unsecured senior notes due 2024. The Additional Notes were priced at 104.875% of the principal amount plus interest deemed to have accrued since July 2, 2019, with a yield to maturity of 4.13% and a yield to worst of 3.86%. For additional information regarding the terms of the Additional Notes and the Indenture, see the Company’s current report on Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on July 2, 2019.

The Additional Notes were issued in a private offering exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), to qualified institutional buyers within the United States in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act and to non-U.S. persons in offshore transactions in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Additional Notes are subject to restrictions on transfer and may only be offered or sold in transactions exempt from or not subject to the registration requirements of the Securities Act and other applicable securities laws.

The Company believes the Additional Notes meet the environmental eligibility criteria for green bonds as defined by the International Capital Market Association’s Green Bond Principles. The Company intends to utilize the net proceeds of approximately $155 million (excluding amounts for accrued interest) of this offering to acquire or refinance, in whole or in part, eligible green projects, which include assets that are neutral to negative on incremental carbon emissions. In addition, these projects may include projects with disbursements made during the twelve months preceding the issue date of the Additional Notes and those with disbursements to be made following the issue date. Prior to the full investment of such net proceeds, the Company intends to apply the proceeds to repay a portion of the outstanding revolving borrowings under the Company’s two senior secured credit facilities. For any net proceeds from the offering not used to repay these credit facilities, the Company intends to invest such net proceeds in interest-bearing accounts and short-term, interest-bearing securities which are consistent with the Company’s intention to continue to qualify for taxation as a real estate investment trust.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
