NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of Ormat Technologies, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for interim financial statements. Accordingly, they do not contain all information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the Company's consolidated financial position as of June 30, 2005, consolidated results of operations for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, and condensed consolidated cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004.

The financial data and other information disclosed in these notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements related to these periods are unaudited. The results for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2005.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2004. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2004 is derived from the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2004.

Dollar amounts, except per share data, in the notes to these financial statements are rounded to the closest $1,000.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist principally of temporary cash investments and accounts receivable.

The Company places its temporary cash investments with high credit quality financial institutions located in the United States ("U.S.") and in foreign countries. At June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, the Company had deposits totaling $13,937,000 and $30,988,000, respectively, in five U.S. financial institutions that were federally insured up to $100,000 per account. At June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, the Company's deposits in foreign countries of approximately $6,400,000 and $9,184,000, respectively, were not insured.

At June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, accounts receivable related to operations in foreign countries amounted to approximately $13,193,000 and $7,963,000, respectively. At June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, accounts receivable from the Company's major customers that have generated 10% or more of its revenues amounted to approximately 72% and 80% of the Company's accounts receivable, respectively.

Southern California Edison Company accounted for 38.8% and 42.4% of the Company's total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, and 36.2% and 41.6% of the Company's total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Southern California Edison Company is also the power purchaser and revenue source for the Company's Mammoth project, which is accounted for under the equity method of accounting.

Sierra Pacific Power Company accounted for 14.1% and 14.3% of the Company's total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, and 15.5% and 13.1 % of the Company's total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Following the acquisition of the Puna project in June 2004, Hawaii Electric Light Company became one of the Company's key customers, accounting for 12.7% and 13.5% or the Company's total revenues for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2005, respectively.

The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition. The Company requires its customer in Nicaragua to provide a cash security arrangement for its payment obligations. The Company has historically been able to collect on all of its receivable balances, and accordingly, no provision for doubtful accounts has been made.

NOTE 2 – STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in respect of options issued to its employees based on the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees ("APB No. 25"), and Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Interpretation No. 44, Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation, and other related interpretations which state that no compensation expense is required to be recorded for stock options or other stock-based awards to employees that are granted with an exercise price equal to or above the estimated fair value per share of common stock on the grant date. In the event that stock options are granted at a price lower than the fair market value at that date, the difference between the fair market value of the common stock and the exercise price of the stock options is recorded as unearned stock-based compensation. Unearned compensation is amortized to compensation expense over the vesting period applicable to the stock option. The Company has adopted the disclosure requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, as it relates to stock options granted to employees, which requires pro forma net income be disclosed based on the fair value of the options granted at the date of the grant.

Had compensation cost for the options granted to employees of the Company been determined based on the fair value method prescribed by SFAS No. 123, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, the Company's pro forma net income and net income per share would have been as follows:

NOTE 3 – REFINANCING OF THE PUNA PROJECT

On May 19, 2005, the Company's subsidiary in Hawaii, Puna Geothermal Ventures ("PGV") completed a refinancing of the cost of its June 2004 acquisition of the Puna geothermal power plant located on the Big Island of Hawaii (the "Puna Project"). The refinancing was concluded with financing parties by means of the lease transactions described below.

Pursuant to a 31-year head lease (the "Head Lease"), PGV leased its geothermal power plant to an unrelated company (the "Lessor") in return for a prepaid lease payment in the amount of $71 million (the "Deferred Lease Income"). PGV's rights in the geothermal resource and the related power purchase agreement will not be leased to the Lessor as part of the Head Lease but will be part of the Lessor's security package. PGV simultaneously leased-back the Puna facilities from the Lessor under a 23-year lease (the "Project Lease"). PGV's rent obligations under the Project Lease will be paid solely from revenues generated by the Puna Project under a power purchase agreement that PGV has with Hawaii Electric Light Company Inc. ("HELCO"). The Head Lease and the Project Lease are non-recourse lease obligations to the Company.

Neither the Head Lease nor the Project Lease meet one or more of the criteria set forth in paragraph 7 of SFAS No. 13, Accounting for Leases, for classification as capital leases and, therefore, are accounted for as operating leases. The Deferred Lease Income will be amortized, using the straight-line method, over the 31-year term of the Head Lease. Deferred transaction costs amounting to $4.2 million will be amortized, using the straight-line method, over the 23-year term of the Project Lease. The net annual lease expenses will be $2.6 million (which is net of the $2.3 million annual amortization of the Deferred Lease Income).

Future minimum lease payments under the Project Lease, as of June 30, 2005, are as follows:

A secondary stage of the lease transaction is anticipated to refinance two new geothermal wells that PGV plans to drill during the remainder of 2005 (for production and injection). Upon the completion of the drilling of such wells and meeting certain other operation conditions, the Lessor and PGV will supplement the Head Lease and Project Lease agreements to include the additional wells in a manner similar to the original Head Lease and Project Lease. The total amount to be received is approximately $11.8 million.

  Reserve accounts
  As required under the terms of the refinancing agreements, there are certain reserve funds that need to be managed by the indenture trustee in accordance with certain balance requirements, and which are included in the balance sheet as of June 30, 2005 in restricted cash accounts, as mentioned below:
  PGV maintains accounts to fund the full amount of the next rent payment according to the payment schedule.

  PGV maintains an account to fund well field work that is not included in the annual budget, including the drilling of new wells (except for the 2005 wells which have separate accounts as described below). The reserve should be met on a monthly basis, in amounts equal to 1/12 of a scheduled annual contribution.

PGV maintains accounts, which are deposited with the indenture trustee until December 30, 2005 to serve as make-whole payments, in case the secondary stage does not occur. As of June 30, 2005, the balance of such accounts is approximately $1.4 million.

In anticipation of the above refinancing, on February 25, 2005, the Company entered into a treasury rate lock agreement with a financial institution, at a locked-in treasury rate of 4.31%, with a notional amount of $52.0 million, which terminated on March 31, 2005. The rate lock was based on a 10-year treasury security that matures on February 15, 2015. On March 31, 2005, the Company received from the counterparty to the Rate Lock Agreement an amount of $658,000. This amount net of related taxes of $250,000 is recorded as "Gain in respect of derivative instruments designated for cash flow hedge, net of related taxes" under "Other comprehensive income (loss)" and is amortized over the 23-year term of the Project Lease.

On April 20, 2005, the Company entered into a new treasury rate lock agreement with the abovementioned financial institution, at a locked-in treasury rate of 4.22%, with a notional amount of $52.0 million and originally scheduled to terminate on May 2, 2005. The new rate lock agreement's termination date was extended until May 18, 2005 at a new locked-in treasury rate of 4.25%. The rate lock was based on a 10-year treasury security that matures on February 15, 2015. There was no consideration paid by either party as a result of the extension. On May 18, 2005, the Company paid the counterparty to the new rate lock agreement the amount of $762,000. This amount net of related taxes of $290,000 is recorded as "Loss in respect of derivative instruments designated for cash flow hedge, net of related taxes" under "Other comprehensive income (loss)" and is amortized over the 23-year term of the Project Lease.

NOTE 4 – NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

SFAS No. 123R (Revised 2004) – Share-Based Payments

In December 2004, the FASB issued the revised SFAS No. 123, Share-Based Payments ("SFAS No. 123R"), which addresses the accounting for share-based payment transactions in which a company obtains employee services in exchange for: (i) equity instruments of the company, or (ii) liabilities that are based on the fair value of the company's equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity instruments. SFAS No. 123R eliminates the ability to account for employee share-based payment transactions using APB No. 25 and requires instead that such transactions be accounted for using the grant date fair value based method. On April 14, 2005, the SEC adopted a new rule amending the compliance dates for SFAS No. 123R. In accordance with the new rule, the accounting provisions of SFAS No. 123R will be applicable to the Company for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006. Early adoption of SFAS No. 123R is encouraged. SFAS No. 123R applies to all awards granted or modified after its effective date. In addition, compensation cost for the unvested portion of previously granted awards that remain outstanding on SFAS No. 123R's effective date shall be recognized on or after such date, as the related services are rendered, based on the awards' grant date fair value as previously calculated for the pro forma disclosure under SFAS No. 123.

The Company estimates that the cumulative effect of adopting SFAS No. 123R as of its effective date by the Company (January 1, 2006), based on the awards outstanding as of June 30, 2005, will be immaterial. This estimate does not include the impact of additional awards, which may be granted, or forfeitures, which may occur subsequent to June 30, 2005 and prior to the Company's adoption of SFAS No. 123R. The Company expects that upon adoption of SFAS No. 123R, it will apply the modified prospective application transition method, as permitted thereunder. Under such transition

11




ORMAT TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

method, upon the adoption of SFAS No. 123R, the Company's consolidated financial statements for periods prior to the effective date will not be restated. The Company does not expect SFAS No. 123R to have a material impact on its results of operations and financial position in future periods.

SFAS No. 151 – Inventory Costs

In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, Inventory Costs – An Amendment of ARB 43, Chapter 4. SFAS No. 151 amends the guidance in ARB No. 43, Chapter 4, Inventory Pricing, to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material. This Statement requires that those items be recognized as current period charges. In addition, SFAS No. 151 requires that allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. SFAS No. 151 will be effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005 (January 1, 2006 for the Company). Earlier application of SFAS No. 151 is permitted. The provisions of SFAS No. 151 shall be applied prospectively. The Company does not expect SFAS No. 151 to have a material impact on its results of operations and financial position in future periods.

SFAS No. 153 – Exchange of Nonmonetary Assets

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets – An Amendment of APB Opinion No. 29. SFAS No. 153 amends APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions. The amendments made by SFAS No. 153 are based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. Further, the amendments eliminate the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replace it with a general exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. The provisions in SFAS No. 153 are effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005 (July 1, 2005 for the Company). Early application of SFAS No. 153 is permitted. The provisions of SFAS No. 153 shall be applied prospectively. The Company does not expect SFAS No. 153 to have a material impact on its results of operations and financial position in future periods.

FIN No. 47 – Accounting for Conditional Retirement Obligations, an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143

In March of 2005, FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 47, Accounting for Conditional Retirement Obligations, an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143 ("FIN No. 47"), which requires companies to recognize a liability for the fair value of a legal obligation to perform asset-retirement activities that are conditional on a future event, if the amount can be reasonably estimated. FIN No. 47 is effective no later than the end of fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005 (December 31, 2005 for the Company). Retrospective application for interim financial information is permitted but is not required. Early adoption of FIN No. 47 is encouraged. The Company does not expect FIN No. 47 to have a material impact on its results of operations and financial position in future periods.

SFAS No. 154 – Accounting Changes and Error Corrections

In June 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections. SFAS No. 154 replaces APB Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes and FAS No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements. SFAS No. 154 requires that a voluntary change in accounting principle be applied retrospectively with all prior period financial statements presented on the new accounting principle. SFAS No. 154 also requires that a change in method of depreciating or amortizing a long-lived non-financial asset be accounted for prospectively as a change in estimate, and correction of errors in previously issued financial statements should be termed a restatement. SFAS No. 154 is effective for accounting changes and correction of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005 (January 1, 2006 for the Company). The Company does not expect SFAS No. 154 to have a material impact on its results of operations and financial position in future periods.

Loan three

On March 10, 2005, the Company repaid a $10 million loan from a bank in full. The outstanding amount that was paid off on such date was $3.3 million.

Bridge loan two

In June 2004, the Company entered into a $20 million revolving credit agreement. On February 10, 2005, the Company repaid the then outstanding balance under the agreement. The full amount of the line of credit remains available through December 31, 2005 and is guaranteed by the Parent. The interest on the line of credit is computed at LIBOR plus 1.45% and is payable quarterly.

Senior secured notes

On February 13, 2004, the Company, through Ormat Funding Corp. ("Ormat Funding") , a wholly owned subsidiary, completed the issuance of $190 million 8¼% senior secured notes (the "Notes" or "Senior Secured Notes") pursuant to an exempt offering under Rule 144A and Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Offering"), from which it received net cash proceeds of approximately $179.7 million after deduction of deferred issuance costs of approximately $10.3 million. Such net proceeds have been included in deferred financing costs at December 31, 2004. The Notes have a final maturity date of December 30, 2020. Principal and interest on the Notes are payable in semi-annual payments that commenced in June 30, 2004. The Notes are collateralized by substantially

all of the assets of Ormat Funding and fully and unconditionally guaranteed by all of the wholly owned subsidiaries of Ormat Funding, and (with certain exceptions) by all real property, contractual rights, revenues and bank accounts, intercompany notes, certain insurance policies and guarantees of Ormat Funding and its subsidiaries. There are various restrictive covenants under the Notes, which include limitations on additional indebtedness and payment of dividends.

Ormat Funding may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time at redemption price equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed plus accrued interest, premium and liquidated damages, if any, plus a "make-whole" premium. Upon certain events, as defined in the indenture governing the Notes, Ormat Funding may be required to redeem a portion of the Notes at a redemption price ranging from 100% to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued interest, premium and liquidated damages, if any.

A registration statement on Form S-4 relating to the Notes was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 9, 2005. Pursuant to the registration statement, Ormat Funding made an offer to the holders of the Notes to exchange them for publicly registered exchange notes with substantially identical terms until March 11, 2005. On March 16, 2005 the exchange offer was completed.

As required under the terms of the Notes, Ormat Funding has restricted cash accounts, consisting of the following:

Galena's construction reserve

As required under the terms of the Notes, Ormat Funding set aside approximately $25.8 million ($8.9 million at June 30, 2005) to replace the existing equipment at the Steamboat 1/1A project with more efficient equipment, in order to optimize the geothermal resources available. After such replacement, the Company will rename the Steamboat 1/1A project as the Galena project. The Company expects the construction will be complete and the project will achieve commercial operations by the end of 2005.

Debt service reserve

Ormat Funding maintains an account, which may be funded by cash or backed by letters of credit (see Note 10), to fund an amount sufficient to pay scheduled debt service amounts, including principal and interest, due under the terms of the Notes in the following six months. As of June 30, 2005, the balance of such account was $10.8 million in cash.

Revenue reserve

Ormat Funding deposits all revenues received into the revenue account. Such amounts are used to pay operating expenses and fund the debt service reserve account, but the funds are only available to Ormat Funding upon submission of draw requests by Ormat Funding to the bank. As such amounts are not fully unrestricted for use by Ormat Funding, they have been classified as restricted (current) in the balance sheets. As of June 30, 2005, the balance of such account was $4.1 million.

NOTE 9 – BUSINESS SEGMENTS

The Company has two reporting segments that are aggregated based on similar products, market and operating factors: electricity and products segments. Such segments are managed and reported separately as each offers different products and serves different markets. The electricity segment is engaged in the sale of electricity pursuant to power purchase agreements. The products segment is engaged in the manufacture, including design and development, of turbines and power units for the supply of electrical energy and in the associated construction of power plants utilizing the power units manufactured by the Company to supply energy from geothermal fields and other alternative energy

NOTE 10 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Letters of credit

In the ordinary course of business with customers, vendors and lenders, the Company is contingently liable for performance under letters of credit totaling $22.8 million and $25.8 million at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively (out of these amounts, letters of credit totaling $8.8 million and

18




ORMAT TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

$25.8 million at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively, have been obtained by the Parent on behalf of the Company). Management does not expect any material expense to result from these letters of credit because performance is not expected to be required and, therefore, is of the opinion that the fair value of these instruments is zero.

LOC Agreement

In addition, a wholly owned subsidiary, Ormat Nevada, Inc., has a letter of credit and loan agreement ("LOC Agreement") with Hudson United Bank pursuant to which Hudson United Bank agreed to issue one or more letters of credit for an aggregate amount of up to $15.0 million. The LOC Agreement expires on June 30, 2007, which expiry date shall be extended for successive one-year periods unless notice is provided by either the Company or the bank to the contrary. In the event that the bank is required to pay on a letter of credit drawn by the beneficiary thereof, such letter of credit converts into a loan, bearing interest at LIBOR plus 4.0%, to be repaid in equal installments at the end of each of the next four quarters. There are various restrictive covenants in the LOC Agreement, which include maintaining certain levels of tangible net worth, leverage ratio, and minimum coverage ratio. As of June 30, 2005, management believes that the Company was in compliance with the covenants under the LOC Agreement. At December 31, 2004, letters of credit amounting to $10.8 million and $3.6 million were issued under the LOC Agreement, which were used to replace cash on deposit in reserve funds pledged against the Ormat Funding Notes and the Beal Bank Credit Agreement, respectively. As of June 30, 2005, such letters of credit have not been renewed by the Company.

Phase II of the Olkaria III Project in Kenya

The Company has waived the receipt of a letter from the Kenyan government that would have supported the payment obligations of Kenya Power & Lighting Co. Ltd. ("KPLC") as a necessary prerequisite for proceeding with Phase II of the Olkaria III project in Kenya, and therefore did not provide a notice of cancellation of Phase II to KPLC. As a result, the Company is required to construct Phase II and to reach commercial operations by May 31, 2007, in order to avoid financial penalties, or by April 17, 2008, at the latest, to avoid termination of the entire power purchase agreement.

Contingencies

In response to an order issued by a California State Court of Appeal, the California Public Utilities Commission ("CPUC"), has commenced an administrative proceeding in order to address short run avoided cost ("SRAC") pricing for Qualifying Facilities for the period from December 2000 to March 2001. The court directed that the CPUC modify SRAC pricing on a retroactive basis to the extent that the CPUC determined that SRAC prices were not sufficiently "accurate" or "correct". On February 15, 2005, the CPUC issued a draft decision affirming that SRAC pricing during the disputed period was correct and compliant with the Public Utility Regulated Policies Act ("PURPA") requirements and that no retroactive adjustments are warranted. Comments on the draft may be filed and a final decision from the CPUC has not yet been issued. If the SRAC prices charged during the period in question were determined by the CPUC to not be "accurate" or "correct", retroactive price adjustments could be required with respect to payments by any of the Company's Qualifying Facilities in California that are tied to SRAC pricing, including the Heber 1, Mammoth and Ormesa projects. Currently it is not possible to predict the final outcome of such proceeding; however, any retroactive price adjustments required to be made in relation to any of the Company's projects may require such projects to make refund payments or charge less for future sales, which could materially and adversely effect the business, financial condition, future results and cash flow of the Company.

In connection with the power purchase agreements for the Ormesa project, Southern California Edison Company ("SCE") has challenged the contract rate for the power supplied by the GEM 2 and

19

GEM 3 plants to the Ormesa project for auxiliary purposes. SCE contends that California ISO real-time prices should apply, while management believes that SP-15 prices quoted by NYMEX should apply. According to SCE's estimation, the amount under dispute is approximately $2.5 million. Management is in early discussions with SCE and does not believe that the resolution will materially affect the Company's financial results.

Steamboat Geothermal LLC ("SG"), a wholly owned subsidiary that owns the Steamboat 1/1A Project is a defendant in litigation related to a dispute over amounts owed to the plaintiffs under certain operating agreements. SG has initiated settlement discussions with the plaintiff and the Company believes that any outcome will not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations.

The Company is a defendant in various other legal suits in the ordinary course of business. It is the opinion of the Company's management that the expected outcome of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material effect on the results of operations and financial condition of the Company.

Certain of the Company's projects are subject to contested Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC") rulings whereby an adverse outcome could result in the refunding of a portion of previously-recognized revenues to customers and/or a reduction in future revenues from those projects. The outcome of theses matters cannot be predicted at this time.

General

Overview

We are a leading vertically integrated company engaged in the geothermal and recovered energy power business. We design, develop, build, own and operate clean, environmentally friendly geothermal power plants, and we also design, develop and build, and plan to own and operate, recovered energy-based power plants, in each case, using equipment that we design and manufacture. In addition, we sell the equipment we design and manufacture for geothermal electricity generation, recovered energy-based electricity generation, and other equipment for electricity generation to third parties. Our operations consist of two principal business segments. The first consists of the sale of electricity from our power plants, which we refer to as the Electricity Segment. The second consists of the design, manufacturing and sale of equipment for electricity generation, the installation thereof and the provision of services relating to the engineering, procurement, construction, operation and maintenance of geothermal and recovered energy power plants, which we refer to as the Products Segment.

Our Electricity Segment currently consists of our investment in power plants producing electricity from geothermal resources. It will also include our planned investment in power plants producing electricity from recovered energy resources. Our geothermal power plants include both power plants that we have built and power plants that we have acquired. Our Products Segment consists of the design, manufacture and sale of equipment that generates electricity, principally from geothermal and recovered energy resources, but also using other fuel sources as well. Our Products Segment also includes, to the extent requested by our customers, the installation of our equipment and other related power plant installations and the provision of services relating to the engineering, procurement, construction, operation and maintenance of geothermal and recovered energy power plants. For the six months ended June 30, 2005, our Electricity Segment represented approximately 75.3% of our total revenues, while our Products Segment represented approximately 24.7% of our total revenues during such period.

In the six months ended June 30, 2005, total Electricity Segment revenues from the sale of electricity by our wholly owned power plants were $82.6 million. In addition, revenues from our 50% ownership of the Mammoth Project and from our 80% ownership of the Leyte Project were $9.8 million. The investments in such projects are accounted for in our consolidated financial statements under the equity method.

Our Electricity Segment operations are conducted in the United States and throughout the world. We have increased our net ownership interest in generating capacity by 164 MW between December

22




31, 2002 and June 30, 2005, of which 150 MW was attributable to our acquisition of geothermal power plants from third parties and 14 MW was attributable to increased generating capacity of our existing geothermal power plants resulting from plant technology upgrades and improvements to our geothermal reservoir operations. Since January 1, 2001, we have completed various acquisitions of geothermal power plants in the United States with an aggregate acquisition cost, net of cash received, of $503.9 million. We also own or control as well as operate geothermal projects in Guatemala, Kenya, Nicaragua and the Philippines.

Our Products Segment operations are also conducted in the United States and throughout the world. For the six months ended June 30, 2005, revenues attributable to our Products Segment were $27.1 million. We have identified recovered energy-based power generation as a significant market opportunity for us in the United States and throughout the world. In the second quarter of this year we entered into supply and construction agreements valued at approximately $9.1 million with a pipeline company in Western Canada for an Ormat Recovered Energy Generation ("REG") facility system. We also have signed a letter of intent and are currently negotiating a definitive agreement with a utility company located in the northwest region of the United States regarding the proposed acquisition by the utility of a REG facility for a purchase price of approximately $13.0 million. We expect that an important component of our Products Segment will be the design, manufacturing and sale of recovered energy products that we expect will allow us (in our Electricity Segment) and potential customers (in our Products Segment) to utilize waste heat for the purpose of producing electricity.

Our Electricity Segment is characterized by relatively predictable revenues generated by our power plants pursuant to long-term power purchase agreements, with terms which are generally up to 20 years. By contrast, revenues attributable to our Products Segment, which are based on the sale of equipment and the provision of various services to our customers are far less predictable and may vary significantly from period to period. Our management assesses the performance of our two segments of operation differently. In the case of our Electricity Segment, when making decisions about potential acquisitions or the development of new projects, our management typically focuses on the internal rate of return of the relevant investment, relevant technical and geological matters and other relevant business considerations. Additionally, as part of our Electricity Segment, our management evaluates our operating projects based on the performance of such projects in terms of revenues and expenses in contrast to projects that are under development, which our management evaluates based on costs attributable to each such project. By contrast, our management evaluates the performance of our Products Segment based on the timely delivery of our products, performance quality of our products and costs actually incurred to complete customer orders as compared to the costs originally budgeted for such orders.

During the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2005, our total revenues increased by 7.0% (from $52.1 to $55.7 million) and 10.0% (from $99.7 to $109.6 million), respectively, over the same periods last year. Revenues from the Electricity Segment increased by 14.6% and 17.6%, respectively, while revenues from the Product Segment decreased by 11.2% and 8.2%, respectively, from the same periods last year. It is important to note, however, that revenues in the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2005 included all revenues generated by the Steamboat 2/3 project that we acquired on February 13, 2004 and the Steamboat Hills and Puna projects that we acquired during the second quarter of 2004. Accordingly, our results for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2005 may not be comparable with our results for the same periods in 2004.

During the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2005, our U.S. projects generated 443,856 MWh and 914,347 MWh, respectively, which include our 50% share in the Mammoth project. During the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2004, our U.S. projects generated 411,499 MWh and 796, 453 MWh, respectively, which include our 50% share in the Mammoth project.

Recent Developments

On June 30, 2005, Puna Geothermal Ventures ("PGV") completed the re-drilling of an existing production well at the Puna project. The well re-drilling increased net generating capacity of the power plant by approximately 4 MW, bringing the total net generating capacity to approximately 29 MW.

On June 20, 2005, our 25-year power purchase agreement with Basin Electric Power Corporation became effective, pursuant to which we will supply approximately 22 MW from REG power plants. The power plants are to be constructed between 15 and 18 months from the effectiveness of the power purchase agreement. The power plants will be constructed on gas compressor stations along a natural gas pipeline in North and South Dakota.

On June 1, 2005, two of our subsidiaries entered into supply and construction contracts with a pipeline company in Western Canada for an Ormat REG power plant in the amount of approximately $9.1 million. The power plant will have design capacity of 5 MW net and will utilize recovered waste heat from gas turbines driving compressors on a natural gas pipeline.

On May 19, 2005, our subsidiary in Hawaii, Puna Geothermal Ventures PGV, completed a refinancing of the cost of its June 2004 acquisition of the Puna geothermal power plant located on the Big Island of Hawaii (the "Puna Project"). The refinancing was concluded with financing parties by means of the lease transactions described below. The proceeds from the refinancing will be used for future capital expenditures and for general corporate purposes.

Pursuant to a 31-year head lease (the "Head Lease"), PGV leased its geothermal power plant to an unrelated company (the "Lessor") in return for a payment of $71 million (the "Deferred Lease Income"). PGV's rights in the geothermal resource and the related power purchase agreement will not be leased to the Lessor as part of the Head Lease but will be part of the Lessor's security package. PGV simultaneously leased-back the Puna facilities from the Lessor under a 23-year lease (the "Project Lease"). PGV's rent obligations under the Project Lease will be paid solely from revenues generated by the Puna Project under a power purchase agreement that PGV has with Hawaii Electric Light Company Inc. ("HELCO"). The Head Lease and the Project Lease are non-recourse lease obligations to us.

Both the Head Lease and the Project Lease are accounted for as operating leases. The Deferred Lease Income will be amortized, using the straight-line method, over the 31-year term of the Head Lease. Deferred transaction costs amounting to $4.2 million will be amortized, using the straight-line method, over the 23-year term of the Project Lease. The net annual lease expenses will be $2.6 million (which is net of the $2.3 million annual amortization of the Deferred Lease Income).

A secondary stage of the lease transaction is anticipated to refinance two new geothermal wells that PGV plans to drill during the remainder of 2005 (for production and injection). Upon the completion of the drilling of such wells and meeting certain other operation conditions, the Lessor and PGV will supplement the Head Lease and Project Lease agreements to include the additional wells in a manner similar to the original Head Lease and Project Lease. The total amount to be received is of approximately $11.8 million.

On May 6, 2005, we completed negotiations for two new 25-year power purchase agreements (which were described as being under negotiation with a third party in our annual report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended 2004) with Southern California Public Power Authority ("SCPPA") for the purchase of energy from each of our Ormesa and Heber Complex projects. Under each agreement, 10 MW of power will be delivered from Ormesa or Heber, as applicable, to SCPPA for a fixed price of $57.50/MWh. This price will escalate annually at a rate of 1.5% and includes the value for the environmental attributes, known as renewable energy credits, which will assist the SCPPA member cities to comply with their respective renewable portfolio standards. In addition, if and when available, 30% of the production tax credits generated from the applicable project will be shared with SCPPA. Deliveries pursuant to the Ormesa power purchase agreement are expected to begin in the fourth quarter of 2006 and deliveries pursuant to the Heber power purchase agreement are scheduled to begin by the end of 2005. The parties are expected to enter into definitive agreements in the coming weeks.

24




On April 14, 2005, our wholly owned subsidiary, Ormat Nevada, Inc., entered into a letter of intent with a utility company located in the northwest region of the United States regarding the proposed acquisition by the utility of an Ormat REG facility for a purchase price of approximately $13 million. The facility will have a design capacity of 4.95 MW net and will utilize recovered waste heat from gas turbines driving compressors on a major interstate gas pipeline located in Washington State. The utility will also be entitled to elect to enter into an agreement with Ormat Nevada whereby Ormat Nevada would provide all corrective and major maintenance ("extended services agreement") for the facility for a period of not less than five years and not more than ten years. The transaction is subject to the execution of definitive agreements, which the parties are currently negotiating and intend to finalize by September 15, 2005. The expected completion date for the facility would be 22 months from the date of the definitive agreements.

In April 2005, we have waived the receipt of a letter from the Kenyan government that would have supported the payment obligations of Kenya Power & Lighting Co. Ltd. ("KPLC") as a necessary prerequisite for proceeding with Phase II of the Olkaria III project in Kenya and therefore did not provide a notice of cancellation of Phase II KPLC. As a result, we are required to construct Phase II and to reach commercial operations by May 31, 2007, in order to avoid financial penalties, or, by April 17, 2008, at the latest, to avoid termination of the entire power purchase agreement.

On February 14, 2005, two of our subsidiaries entered into a contract for the supply of equipment and construction of a geothermal power plant on Sao Miguel Island in the Azores in the total amount of Euro 19.2 million (approximately $24 million).

Trends and Uncertainties

The geothermal industry in the United States has historically experienced significant growth followed by a consolidation of owners and operators of geothermal power plants. During the 1990s, growth and development in the geothermal industry occurred primarily in foreign markets and only minimal growth and development occurred in the United States. Since 2001, there has been increased demand for energy generated from geothermal resources in the United States as production costs for electricity generated from geothermal resources have become more competitive relative to fossil fuel generation due to increasing natural gas prices and as a result of newly enacted legislative and regulatory incentives, such as state renewable portfolio standards and the Energy Policy Act of 2005. We see the increasing demand for energy generated from geothermal and other renewable resources in the United States and the further introduction of renewable portfolio standards as the most significant trends affecting our industry today and in the immediate future. Our operations and the trends that from time to time impact our operations are subject to market cycles.

Although other trends, factors and uncertainties may impact our operations and financial condition, including many that we do not or cannot foresee, we believe that our results of operations and financial condition for the foreseeable future will be affected by the following trends, factors and uncertainties:

•  In the United States, we expect to continue to benefit from the increasing demand for renewable energy as a result of favorable legislation adopted by 18 states and the District of Columbia, including California, Nevada and Hawaii (where we have been the most active in our geothermal development and in which all of our U.S. projects are located). In each of these states, relevant legislation currently requires that an increasing percentage of the electricity supplied by electric utility companies operating in such states be derived from renewable energy resources until certain pre-established goals are met. We expect that the additional demand for renewable energy from utilities in such states will create additional opportunities for us to expand existing projects and build new power plants. Outside of the United States, we expect that a variety of governmental initiatives, including the award of long-term contracts to independent power generators, the creation of competitive wholesale markets for selling and trading energy, capacity and related energy products and the adoption of programs designed to encourage "clean" renewable and sustainable energy sources, will create new opportunities for the development of new projects as well as create additional markets for our remote power units and other products.

25




•  We have identified recovered energy-based power generation as a significant market opportunity for us in the United States and throughout the world. We are initially targeting the North American market thereafter, we intend to leverage our success in that market in order to expand such operations throughout the world. If our expectations regarding the growth in demand for our recovered energy units are not met, we may not be able to generate the revenues we expect from such operations.
•  We expect the revenues from our Products Segment in 2005 to be similar to the revenue level we achieved in 2004. In pursuing new orders, we participate in tenders for projects and proposals for installations and identify and monitor markets which utilize or plan to utilize geothermal energy and in which geothermal resources are available. Over the long-term, we intend to continue to pursue growth in our recovered energy business, and we expect that the portion of revenues from our recovered energy business as a percentage of the total revenues from our Products Segment will increase.
•  We expect to continue to generate the majority of our revenues from the sale of electricity from our power plants. All of our current revenues from the sale of electricity are derived from fully-contracted payments under long-term power purchase agreements.
•  The viability of the geothermal resources utilized by our power plants depends on various factors such as the heat content of the geothermal reservoir, useful life of the reservoir (the term during which such geothermal reservoir has sufficient extractable fluids for our operations) and operational factors relating to the extraction of the geothermal fluids. Our geothermal power plants may experience an unexpected decline in the capacity of their respective geothermal wells. Such factors, together with the possibility that we may fail to find commercially viable geothermal resources in the future, represent significant uncertainties we face in connection with our operations.
•  Our foreign operations are subject to significant political, economic and financial risks, which vary by country. Such risks include the ongoing privatization of the electricity industry in the Philippines, the partial privatization of the electricity sector in Guatemala, labor unrest and strengthening of unions in Nicaragua and the political uncertainty currently prevailing in Kenya. Although we maintain some political risk insurance as an attempt to mitigate such risks, such insurance does not provide complete coverage with respect to all such risks.
•  We expect current interest rates to gradually increase in the short-term. Any increases in interest rates that impact our existing financings or future financings could increase the aggregate amount of our interest expenses and thus could have an adverse effect on our results of operations
•  We have experienced recent increases in the cost of raw materials required for our equipment manufacturing activities, which we believe have resulted primarily from increased demand in the Chinese market for such raw materials, and increases in the cost to transport our products. Additionally, we have experienced an increase in drilling costs and a shortage in drilling equipment, which we believe is the result of the high oil prices resulting in increased drilling activity in the marketplace. We also have experienced an increase in construction costs, particularly in the United States, due to rising prices attendant to a significant increase in activities in the construction industry. An increase in such costs may have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
•  The United States extended a tax subsidy and increased the amount for companies that use geothermal steam or fluid to generate electricity as part of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 that became law on August 8, 2005. The tax subsidy is a "production tax credit" of 1.9 cents per kWh. It may be claimed on the electricity output of new geothermal power plants put into service during a "window period" that runs from October 23, 2004 through December 31, 2007. The window had been scheduled to close at the end of this year, but the new act extended it. Credit may be claimed for five years on the output from any new geothermal power plants put into service during the first part of the window period, from October 23,

26




  2004 to August 8, 2005. Plants put into service during the remainder of the "window period" qualify for 10 years of tax credits. Production tax credits may significantly improve our financial results. We, as the owner of projects that may be put into service during this window period, must choose between this production tax credit and a 10% investment tax credit. Some of our power purchase agreements allow the power purchaser to benefit from part of such production tax credits, if and when they become available to us.
•  The Energy Policy Act of 2005, as mentioned above, authorizes FERC to revise PURPA so as to terminate the obligation of electric utilities to enter into new contracts to purchase the output of a Qualifying Facility if FERC finds that there is an accessible competitive market for energy and capacity from the Qualifying Facility. The legislation does not affect existing power purchase agreements. We do not expect this change in law to affect our U.S. projects significantly, as all except one (our Steamboat 1 project, which has a contract with Sierra Pacific Power Co. that expires in 2006) of the contracts are long-term.

Revenues

We generate our revenues primarily from the sale of electricity from our geothermal power plants, the design, manufacturing and sale of equipment for electricity generation and the construction, installation and engineering of power plant equipment.

Revenues attributable to our Electricity Segment are relatively predictable as they are derived from the sale of electricity from our power plants pursuant to long-term power purchase agreements; however, such revenues are subject to seasonal variations, as more fully described below in the section entitled "Seasonality". Our power purchase agreements generally provide for the payment of capacity payments, energy payments, or both. Generally, capacity payments are payments calculated based on the amount of time that our power plants are available to generate electricity. Some of our power purchase agreements provide for bonus payments in the event that we are able to exceed certain target levels and the potential forfeiture of payments if we fail to meet minimum target levels. Energy payments, on the other hand, are payments calculated based on the amount of electrical energy delivered to the relevant power purchaser at a designated delivery point. The rates applicable to such payments are either fixed (subject, in certain cases, to certain adjustments) or are based on the relevant power purchaser's short run avoided costs (the incremental costs that the power purchaser avoids by not having to generate such electrical energy itself or purchase it from others).

As required by Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 01-8, Determining Whether an Arrangement Contains a Lease, we assessed all of our power purchase agreements acquired since July 1, 2003, and concluded that all such agreements related to our Heber 1 and 2, Steamboat 2/3, Steamboat Hills, and Puna projects contained a lease element requiring lease accounting. Accordingly, revenues related to the lease element of the agreements are presented as "lease portion of energy and capacity" revenue, with the remaining revenue related to the production and delivery of the energy presented as "energy and capacity" revenue in our consolidated financial statements. As the lease revenue and the energy and capacity revenues are derived from the same arrangement and both fall within our Electricity Segment, we analyze such revenues, and related costs, on a combined basis for management purposes.

Revenues attributable to our Products Segment are generally unpredictable because larger customer orders for our products are typically a result of our participating in, and winning, tenders issued by potential customers in connection with projects they are developing. Such projects often take a long time to design and develop and are often subject to various contingencies such as the customer's ability to raise the necessary financing for a project. As a result, we are generally unable to predict the timing of such orders for our products and may not be able to replace existing orders that we have completed with new ones. As a result, our revenues from our Products Segment fluctuate (and at times, extensively) from period to period.

Geographical Breakdown of Revenues

For the three months ended June 30, 2005, 86.9% of our revenues attributable to our Electricity Segment were generated in the United States, as compared to 85.3% for the same period in 2004, and for the six months ended June 30, 2005, 86.5%, as compared to 80.3% for the same period in 2004. The following table sets forth the geographic breakdown of the revenues attributable to our Electricity Segment for the periods indicated:

Foreign   13.1     14.7     13.5     19.7  
Total   100.0   100.0   100.0   100.0

Historically, revenues attributable to our Products Segment, after giving effect to the elimination of intercompany transactions, have been derived primarily from outside of the United States. Since 2003, we have begun to generate revenues attributable to our Products Segment in the United States as well. However, as a result of the fluctuation and unpredictability of the revenues attributable to our Products Segment and the impact that a few sales or engineering, procurement and construction ("EPC") contracts can have on the geographic distribution of such revenues, the geographical distribution of such revenues may not be indicative of any developing trends or of our future results.

Seasonality

The demand for the electricity generated by our domestic projects and the prices paid for such electricity pursuant to our power purchase agreements are subject to seasonal variations. The demand for electricity from the Heber 1 and 2 project, the Mammoth project and the Ormesa project is the highest in the summer months of June through September, because the power purchaser for those projects, Southern California Edison Company, delivers more electricity to its California markets during such period in order to meet demand for air conditioning and other energy-intensive cooling systems utilized during such summer months. The demand for electricity from the Steamboat complex and the Brady project is more balanced, consisting of both summer and winter peaks that reflect the greater temperature variations in Nevada. The demand for electricity from the Puna project is balanced due to the equatorial temperature in Hawaii (with less pronounced temperature variations during the year). In California, the capacity rates payable pursuant to the applicable power purchase agreement are higher in the summer months and as a result we receive higher revenues during such months. In contrast, there are no significant changes in prices during the year payable pursuant to our power purchase agreements for the Puna project and the Nevada projects. In the winter, due principally to the lower ambient temperature, our power plants produce more energy and as a result we receive higher energy revenues. However, the higher capacity payments payable by the power purchaser in California in the summer months as a result of the increase in demand and in prices have a more significant impact on our revenues than that of the higher energy revenues generally generated in winter due to increased efficiency, and as a result our revenues are generally higher in the summer than in the winter.

Breakdown of Expenses

Electricity Segment

The principal expenses attributable to our operating projects include operation and maintenance expenses such as salaries, equipment expenses, costs of parts and chemicals, costs related to third-party services, lease expenses, royalties, startup and auxiliary electricity purchases, property taxes and insurance and, for the California projects, transmission charges, scheduling charges and purchases of sweet water for use in our plant cooling towers. Some of these expenses, such as parts and third-party services, are not incurred on a regular basis, which results in fluctuations in our expenses and our results of operations for individual projects from quarter to quarter.

Payments made to government agencies and private entities as compensation for the use of the relevant geothermal resources and site leases where plants are located are included in cost of revenues.

Royalty payments are payments made as compensation for the right to use certain geothermal resources and are included as a component of operating expenses in cost of revenues, and are paid as a percentage of the revenues derived from the associated geothermal resources. For the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2005, royalties were approximately 4% of the electricity revenues.

Products Segment

The principal expenses attributable to our Products Segment include materials, salaries and related employee benefits, expenses related to subcontracting activities, transportation expenses, sales commissions to sales representatives and royalties pertaining to government participation in our research and development programs at a rate of 3.5% to 5.0% of the proceeds recovered from the sale of products which were developed pursuant to such research and development programs.

Some of the principal expenses attributable to our Products Segment, such as a portion of the costs related to labor, utilities and other support services are fixed and, in order to maintain our current production and construction capability, must be incurred, notwithstanding the revenues attributable to our Products Segment. As a result, the cost of revenues attributable to our Products Segment, expressed as a percentage of total revenues, fluctuates. To date, our management has made the strategic decision to maintain our production and construction capacity and, therefore, maintain the fixed cost component of the total costs attributable to our Products Segment at the current level. Another reason for such fluctuation is that in responding to bids for our products, we price our products and services in relation to existing competition and other prevailing market conditions, which may vary substantially from order to order.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities

Our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as of June 30, 2005 decreased to $105.0 million from $125.9 million as of December 31, 2004, principally due to the repayment of long-term debt to our parent and to third parties and the designation to restricted cash of amounts that will be used to maintain debt service reserves and for capital expenditures, offset by an increase of $71.0 million as a result of the refinancing of the Puna project acquisition on May 19, 2005.

Critical Accounting Policies

A comprehensive discussion of our critical accounting policies is included in the "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations" section in our annual report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2004.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Share-Based Payments

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued the revised Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, Share-Based Payments, which we

29




refer to as SFAS No. 123R and which addresses the accounting for share-based payment transactions in which a company obtains employee services in exchange for: (i) equity instruments of the company, or (ii) liabilities that are based on the fair value of the company's equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity instruments. SFAS No. 123R eliminates the ability to account for employee share-based payment transactions using APB Opinion No. 25, and requires instead that such transactions be accounted for using the grant date fair value based method. On April 14, 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted a new rule amending the compliance date for SFAS No. 123R. In accordance with the new rule, the accounting provision of SFAS No. 123R will be applicable to us for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006. Early adoption of SFAS No. 123R is encouraged. SFAS No. 123R applies to all awards granted or modified after its effective date. In addition, compensation cost for the unvested portion of previously granted awards that remain outstanding on the SFAS No. 123R's effective date shall be recognized on or after such date, as the related services are rendered, based on the awards' grant date fair value as previously calculated for the pro forma disclosure under SFAS No. 123.

We estimate that the cumulative effect of our adoption of SFAS No. 123R as of its effective date (January 1, 2006), based on the awards outstanding as of June 30, 2005, will be immaterial. This estimate does not include the impact of additional awards, which may be granted, or forfeitures, which may occur subsequent to June 30, 2005 and prior to our adoption of SFAS No. 123R. We expect that upon adoption of SFAS No. 123R, we will apply the modified prospective application transition method, as permitted thereunder. Under such transition method, upon the adoption of SFAS No. 123R, our consolidated financial statements for periods prior to the effective date will not be restated. We do not expect SFAS No. 123R to have a material impact on our results of operations and financial position in future periods.

Inventory Costs

In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, Inventory Costs – an amendment of ARB 43, Chapter 4. SFAS No. 151 amends the guidance in ARB No. 43, Chapter 4, Inventory Pricing, to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material. This Statement requires that those items be recognized as current period charges. In addition, SFAS No. 151 requires that allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. SFAS No. 151 will be effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005 and applicable to our fiscal year ending December 31, 2006. Earlier application of SFAS No. 151 is permitted. The provisions of SFAS No. 151 shall be applied prospectively. We do not expect SFAS No. 151 to have a material impact on our results of operations and financial position in future periods.

Exchange of Non-monetary Assets

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, Exchanges of Non-monetary Assets – An Amendment of APB Opinion No. 29. SFAS No. 153 amends APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Non-monetary Transactions. The amendments made by SFAS No. 153 are based on the principle that exchanges of non-monetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. Further, the amendments eliminate the exception for non-monetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replace it with a general exception for exchanges of non-monetary assets that do not have commercial substance. The provisions in SFAS No. 153 are effective for non-monetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005 (July 1, 2005 for us). Early application of SFAS No. 153 is permitted. The provisions of SFAS No. 153 shall be applied prospectively. We do not expect SFAS No. 153 to have a material impact on our results of operations and financial position in future periods.

Accounting for Conditional Retirement Obligations

In March of 2005, FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 47, Accounting for Conditional Retirement Obligations, an Interpretation of FASB Statement No.143 ("FIN No. 47"), which requires

30




companies to recognize a liability for the fair value of a legal obligation to perform asset-retirement activities that are conditional on a future event, if the amount can be reasonably estimated. FIN No. 47 is effective no later than the end of fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005 (December 31, 2005 for us). Retrospective application for interim financial information is permitted but is not required. Early adoption of FIN No. 47 is encouraged. We not expect FIN No. 47 to have a material impact on our results of operations and financial position in future periods.

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections

In June 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections. SFAS No. 154 replaces APB Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes and FAS No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements. SFAS No. 154 requires that a voluntary change in accounting principle be applied retrospectively with all prior period financial statements presented on the new accounting principle. SFAS No. 154 also requires that a change in method of depreciating or amortizing a long-lived non-financial asset be accounted for prospectively as a change in estimate, and correction of errors in previously issued financial statements should be termed a restatement. SFAS No. 154 is effective for accounting changes and correction of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005 (January 1, 2006 for us). We do not expect SFAS No. 154 to have a material impact on our results of operations and financial position in future periods.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2005 and the Three Months Ended June 30, 2004

Total Revenues

Total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2005 were $55.7 million, as compared with $52.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004, which represented a 7.0% increase in total revenues. This increase is primarily attributable to our Electricity Segment whose revenues increased by 14.6% over the same period in 2004. This increase was partially offset by a decrease of 11.2% in our Product Segment revenues from the same period in 2004.

Electricity Segment


  Three Months ended
June 30,
  2005 2004
  (in millions)
Steamboat Project $ 3.9   $ 3.9  
Puna Project   7.1     1.8  
Steamboat Hills Project   1.0     0.6  
Other Projects   30.1     30.5  
Total $ 42.1   $ 36.8  

Revenues attributable to our Electricity Segment for the three months ended June 30, 2005 were $42.1 million, as compared with $36.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004, which represented a 14.6% increase in such revenues. This increase is primarily attributable to additional revenues being generated from the Steamboat Hills project, which we acquired on May 20, 2004, and the Puna project, which we acquired on June 3, 2004. The decrease in revenues from Other Projects is primarily due to a lower availability of the Ormesa well field as described under "Total Cost of Revenues — Electricity Segment".

Products Segment

Revenues attributable to our Products Segment for the three months ended June 30, 2005 were $13.6 million, as compared with $15.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004, which represented a 11.2% decrease in such revenues. This decrease of $1.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2005 is principally attributable to the usual quarterly fluctuations in the revenues generated from our Products Segment.

Total Cost of Revenues

Total cost of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2005 was $38.9 million, as compared with $33.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004, which represented a 17.9% increase in total cost of revenues. As a percentage of total revenues, our total cost of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and the three months ended June 30, 2004 were 69.8% and 63.4%, respectively. The increase is principally attributable to increased costs in our Electricity Segment during the second quarter of 2005.

Electricity Segment

Total cost of revenues attributable to our Electricity Segment for the three months ended June 30, 2005 was $27.5 million, as compared with $21.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004, which represented a 29.6% increase in total cost of revenues for such segment. This increase is primarily due to costs of $0.7 million and $3.6 million attributable to the Steamboat Hills project (which was acquired on May 20, 2004) and the Puna project ( which was acquired on June 3, 2004), respectively, for the second quarter of 2005 as compared with $0.3 million and $1.1 million, respectively, for the second quarter of 2004. The remainder of the increase is mainly due to a significant increase in the geothermal field costs within the Ormesa project due to a higher-than-average rate of failure of production pumps and wells. This failure required us to replace a relatively large number of pumps during the quarter and to abandon one production well. As a percentage of total electricity revenues, the total cost of revenues attributable to our Electricity Segment for the three months ended June 30, 2005 (65.3%) was higher than the percentage for the three months ended June 30, 2004 (57.7%). Such 7.6% increase is primarily due to the increased costs in the Ormesa project as described above. It should be noted that the Puna project incurred additional costs of $0.3 million in the period from May 19, 2005 to June 30, 2005 in the form of net lease payments pursuant to the operating lease transaction described under "Recent Developments". The net quarterly lease expenses going forward are expected to be $0.7 million.

34




Products Segment

Total cost of revenues attributable to our Products Segment for the three months ended June 30, 2005 was $11.4 million, as compared with $11.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004, which represented a 3.1% decrease in total cost of revenues related to such segment. Such $0.4 million decrease in total cost of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2005 reflects a decrease in production volume, as compared with the corresponding period in 2004. As a percentage of total products revenues, our total cost of revenues attributable to our Products Segment for the three months ended June 30, 2005 was 83.8% compared with 76.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2004. Such 6.9% increase was primarily attributable to an 11.2% decrease in our Product Segment revenues while the fixed portion of our cost of product revenues, such as salaries, depreciation, expenses related to maintaining operations, utilities and property expenses, remained constant.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2005 were $0.7 million, as compared with $0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004, which represented a 20.7% decrease in research and development expenses. Such decrease was in the ordinary course of our operations and does not represent any significant change in our research and development program or our ability to maintain and continue to develop our technologies and operations and reflects fluctuations in the period in which actual expenses were incurred.

Selling and Marketing Expenses

Selling and marketing expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2005 were $1.7 million, as compared with $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004, which represented a 21.1% decrease in selling and marketing expenses due to the timing of incurring such expenses. Selling and marketing expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2005 constituted 3.0% of total revenues for such period, as compared with 4.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2004. Such decrease is principally attributable to a decrease in commissions and delivery costs relating to the Products Segment and the fixed cost nature of certain of our selling and marketing expenses against a larger total revenue base.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2005 were $ 3.0 million, as compared with $2.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004, which represented a 3.0% increase in general and administrative expenses. Such increase was principally attributable to the increased administrative expenses associated with being a public company whose shares are traded on the New York Stock Exchange. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2005 decreased slightly to 5.3% of total revenues for such period, from 5.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2004.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2005 was $9.5 million, as compared with $11.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004, which represented a 13.2% decrease in such interest expense. The main reasons for such decrease are: (i) interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2004 included $0.9 million related to the decrease in the fair value of the interest rate caps in respect of the Beal Bank financing; beginning in October 2004, the caps qualified for hedge accounting under SFAS No. 133, and as such we have recorded the decrease in the value of the caps in respect of such transactions for the three months ended June 30, 2005 in the amount of $0.6 million in other comprehensive income. (ii) a decrease in interest expenses of $0.4 million as a result of the repayment of the Ormesa loan which was repaid on December 31, 2004, and (iii) $1.1 million interest capitalized to projects under construction as compared with only $0.4 million in the same period last year. Such decrease was offset by an increase of $0.4 million in the applicable LIBOR rate for the Beal Bank financing.

35




Income Taxes

Income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 were $1.2 million and $0.5 million, respectively. The effective tax rates for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and June 30, 2004 were 36.6% and 18.9%, respectively. Our effective tax rate was lower in the three months ended June 30, 2004 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005 as a result of application of investment tax credits.

Equity in Income of Investees

Our participation in the income generated from our investees for the three months ended June 30, 2005 was $2.1 million, as compared with $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004. Such increase was principally attributable to an increase of $0.4 million in income generated in connection with our 80% equity interest in the Leyte project and our collection of an insurance claim in relation to the project in the second quarter of 2005.

Net Income

Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2005 was $4.1 million, as compared with $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004, which represented a 15.6% increase in such net income. Net income as a percentage of our total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2005 was 7.3%, as compared with 6.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2004. Such increase in net income was principally attributable to: (i) a decrease in our net interest expense of $2.5 million, (ii) an increase of $0.6 million in equity in income of investees, and (iii) a $0.5 million decrease in operating expenses, offset by a $2.3 million decrease in gross margin and a $0.7 million increase in our income tax provision.

Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2005 and the Six Months Ended June 30, 2004

Total Revenues

Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2005 were $109.6 million, as compared with $99.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004, which represented a 10.0% increase in total revenues. This increase is primarily attributable to our Electricity Segment whose revenues increase by 17.6% over the same period in 2004. This increase was partially offset by a decrease of 8.2% in our Product Segment revenues as compared to the same period in 2004.

Revenues attributable to our Electricity Segment for the six months ended June 30, 2005 were $82.6 million, as compared with $70.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004, which represented a 17.6% increase in such revenues. This increase is primarily attributable to additional revenues being generated from the Steamboat 2/3 project, which we acquired on February 11, 2004, the Steamboat Hills project, which we acquired on May 20, 2004, and the Puna project, which we acquired on June 3, 2004. The decrease in revenues from Other Projects is primarily due to deconsolidation of the Leyte project as of April 1, 2004, which represented $3.1 million of our revenues in the second quarter of 2004, and the lower availability of the well field in the Ormesa project, as described above.

36




Products Segment

Revenues attributable to our Products Segment for the six months ended June 30, 2005 were $27.1 million, as compared with $29.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004, which represented an 8.2% decrease in such revenues. This decrease of $2.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2005 is principally attributable to the usual quarterly fluctuations in the revenues generated from our Products Segment.

Total Cost of Revenues

Total cost of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was $73.2 million, as compared with $63.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004, which represented a 14.9% increase in total cost of revenues. As a percentage of total revenues, our total cost of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and the six months ended June 30, 2004 were 66.8% and 63.9%, respectively. The increase is principally attributable to increased costs in our Electricity Segment during the first half of 2005.

Electricity Segment

Total cost of revenues attributable to our Electricity Segment for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was $51.1 million, as compared with $40.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004, which represented a 25.9% increase in total cost of revenues for such segment. This increase is primarily due to costs of $4.0 million, $1.4 million and $6.6 million attributable to the Steamboat 2/3 project (which was acquired on February 11, 2004), the Steamboat Hills project (which was acquired on May 20, 2004) and the Puna project (which was acquired on June 3, 2004), respectively, for the first half of 2005 as compared with $2.8 million, $0.3 million and $1.1 million, respectively, for the first half of 2004. The remainder of the increase is mainly due to the increased costs within the Ormesa project, as described above. As a percentage of total electricity revenues, the total cost of revenues attributable to our Electricity Segment for the six months ended June 30, 2005 (61.9%) was higher than the percentage for the six months ended June 30, 2004 (57.8%). Such increase is primarily due to the deconsolidation of the Leyte project as of April 1, 2004, whose total cost of revenues as a percentage of the project's revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2004 was 46.3%, which is lower than the average cost of revenues for this segment, as well as the increased costs in the Ormesa project. It should be noted that the Puna project incurred additional costs of $0.3 million in the period from May 19, 2005 to June 30, 2005 in the form of net lease payments pursuant to the operating lease transaction described under "Recent Developments". The net semi-annual lease expenses going forward are expected to be $1.3 million.

Products Segment

Total cost of revenues attributable to our Products Segment for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was $22.1 million, as compared with $23.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004, which represented a 4.4% decrease in total cost of revenues related to such segment. Such $1.0 million decrease in total cost of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2005 reflects a decrease in production volume, as compared with the corresponding period in 2004. As a percentage of total products revenues, our total cost of revenues attributable to our Products Segment for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was 81.7% and for the six months ended June 30, 2004 was 78.4%. Such increase was primarily attributable to an 8.2% decrease in our Products Segment revenues while the fixed portion of our cost of product revenues, such as salaries, depreciation, expenses related to maintaining operations, utilities and property expenses, remained constant.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2005 were $1.1 million, as compared with $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004, which represented a 9.0% decrease in research and development expenses. Such decrease was in the ordinary course of our

37




operations and does not represent any significant change in our research and development program or our ability to maintain and continue to develop our technologies and operations and reflects fluctuations in the period in which actual expenses were incurred.

Selling and Marketing Expenses

Selling and marketing expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2005 decreased by $0.1 million, as compared with the six months ended June 30, 2004, which represented a 2.2% decrease in selling and marketing expenses due to the timing of incurring such expenses. Selling and marketing expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2005 constituted 3.5% of total revenues for such period, as compared with 4.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2004. Such decrease is principally attributable to the fixed cost nature of certain of our selling and marketing expenses against a larger total revenue base.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2005 were $6.6 million, as compared with $5.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004, which represented a 26.5% increase in general and administrative expenses. Such increase was principally attributable to an increase in professional services fees, additional personnel expenses and other administrative expenses, all as a result of being a public company whose shares are traded on the New York Stock Exchange. General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2005 constituted 6.0% of total revenues for such period, as compared with 5.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2004. In addition, the general and administrative expenses in the six months ended June 30, 2004 did not fully reflect the increase in such expenses that was required as a result of the increased activity that occurred in connection with the acquisitions made in 2004.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was $19.8 million, as compared with $19.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004, which represented a 1.7% increase in such interest expense. The net increase of $0.3 million resulted from the following: (i) a $0.8 million increase in the applicable LIBOR rate for the Beal Bank financing, (ii) a $1.9 million interest expense incurred in connection with the issuance by Ormat Funding, on February 13, 2004, of $190.0 million of Senior Secured Notes and (iii) a $0.7 million increase in interest payments to our parent. Such increases were offset by: (i) interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2004 included $0.9 million related to the decrease in the fair value of the interest rate caps in respect of the Beal Bank financing; beginning in October 2004 the caps qualified for hedge accounting under SFAS No. 133, and as such we have recorded the decrease in the value of the caps in respect of such transactions for the three months ended June 30, 2005 in the amount of $0.8 million in other comprehensive income. (ii) a decrease in interest expenses of $0.7 million as a result of the repayment of the Ormesa loan which was repaid on December 31, 2004. (iii) $1.8 million interest capitalized to projects under construction as compared with only $0.4 million in the same period last year, and (iv) the elimination of interest expenses of the Leyte loan in the amount of $0.3 million as a result of the deconsolidation of the Leyte project in April 1, 2004 (as a result of the application of FIN No. 46R).

Income Taxes

Income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2005 were $2.6 million, as compared with $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004, which represents a 34.6% increase in such income taxes. The effective tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and June 30, 2004 were 37.6% and 31.0%, respectively. Our effective tax rate was lower in the six months ended June 30, 2004 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2005 as a result of application of investment tax credits.

Equity in Income of Investees

Our participation in the income generated from our investees for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was $3.6 million, as compared with $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. Such

38




increase was principally attributable to the income generated in connection with our 80% equity interest in the Leyte project, which was deconsolidated as of April 1, 2004 (as a result of the application of FIN No. 46R), which accounted for $0.9 million, and our collection of an insurance claim in that project in the second quarter of 2005.

Net Income

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was $8.0 million, as compared with $6.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004, which represented a 27.4% increase in such net income. Net income as a percentage of our total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was 7.3%, as compared with 6.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2004. Such increase in percentage was principally attributable to: (i) an increase of $1.6 million in equity in income of investees, (ii) a decrease in our net interest expense of $1.5 million, and (iii) a $0.4 million increase in gross margin, offset by a $1.2 million increase in operating expenses and a $0.7 million increase in our income tax provision.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

To date, our principal sources of liquidity have been cash from operations, proceeds from parent company loans, third party debt in the form of borrowing under credit facilities, issuance by Ormat Funding of its Senior Secured Notes, project financing, and the issuance of shares of common stock on the public markets. We have utilized this cash to fund our acquisitions, develop and construct power generation plants and meet our other cash and liquidity needs. Our management believes that the outstanding cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and cash generated from our operations will address our liquidity and other investment requirements.

Loan Agreements with our Parent

In 2003, we entered into a loan agreement with Ormat Industries Ltd. (the parent company), which was further amended on September 20, 2004. Pursuant to this loan agreement, Ormat Industries agreed to make a loan to us in one or more advances not exceeding a total aggregate amount of $150 million. The proceeds of the loan are to be used to fund our general corporate activities and investments. We are required to repay the loan and accrued interest in full and in accordance with an agreed-upon repayment schedule and in any event on or prior to June 5, 2010. Interest on the loan is calculated on the balance from the date of the receipt of each advance until the date of payment thereof at a rate per annum equal to Ormat Industries' average effective cost of funds plus 0.3% percent in dollars, which represented a rate of 7.5% for the advances made during 2003. All computations of interest shall be made by Ormat Industries on the basis of a year consisting of 360 days. As of June 30, 2005, the outstanding balance of the loan was approximately $ 136.2 million compared to $143.2 million as of December 31, 2004.

In addition to the above loan, pursuant to the terms of a capital note, as further amended on September 20, 2004, Ormat Industries converted outstanding balances owed by us to Ormat Industries into a subordinated non-interest bearing loan in an amount equal to New Israeli Shekels (NIS) 240.0 million. At any time after November 30, 2007 upon demand by Ormat Industries, we will be required to repay the loan in full. The final maturity of the loan is December 30, 2009. In accordance with the terms of such note, we will not be required to repay any amount in excess of $50.7 million (using the exchange rate existing on the date of such note).

Third Party Debt

Our third party debt is composed of two principal categories. The first category consists of project finance debt or acquisition financing that we or our subsidiaries have incurred for the purpose of developing and constructing, refinancing or acquiring our various projects. The second category consists of debt incurred by us or our subsidiaries for general corporate purposes.

Limited and Non Recourse Debt

OrCal Geothermal, one of our subsidiaries, entered into a non-recourse project finance loan from Beal Bank for the purpose of financing the acquisition of the Heber 1 and 2 projects and our 50%

39




ownership interest in the Mammoth project, of which $148.3 million was outstanding as of June 30, 2005, bearing an interest rate of the greater of 7.125% or LIBOR plus 5.125% per annum. The Bank Hapoalim project finance debt, of which $15.6 million was outstanding as of June 30, 2005, bearing an interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.375% per annum on tranche one of the loan and LIBOR plus 3.0% per annum on tranche two of the loan, and the Export-Import Bank of the United States project finance debt, of which $11.4 million was outstanding as of June 30, 2005, bearing an interest rate of 6.54% per annum, were entered into by our relevant subsidiaries to finance the Momotombo project and the Leyte project (which was deconsolidated as of April 1, 2004), respectively.

Senior Secured Notes – Non Recourse

On February 13, 2004, Ormat Funding, one of our subsidiaries, issued 8¼% Senior Secured Notes in a capital markets offering subject to Rule 144A and Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for the purpose of refinancing the acquisition cost of the Brady, Ormesa and Steamboat 1/1A projects, and the financing of the acquisition cost of the Steamboat 2/3 project, of which $186.5 million was outstanding as of June 30, 2005. The Senior Secured Notes are collateralized by substantially all of the assets of Ormat Funding and fully and unconditionally guaranteed by all of the wholly owned subsidiaries of Ormat Funding, and (with certain exceptions) by all real property, contractual rights, revenues and bank accounts, intercompany notes, certain insurance policies and guarantees of Ormat Funding and its subsidiaries.

There are various restrictive covenants under the Senior Secured Notes, which include limitations on additional indebtedness and payment of dividends.

A registration statement on Form S-4 relating to the Senior Secured Notes was filed with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 9, 2005. On March 16, 2005, we exchanged these unregistered notes for Senior Secured Notes with substantially identical terms that have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. As of the date of this report, there are $186.5 million of Senior Secured Notes outstanding.

New financing of our projects

Financing of the Amatitlan Project

We currently intend to finance the construction cost of the Amatitlan project by the end of 2005. In connection with such financing, we are in discussions with a local bank in Guatemala to obtain a 10-year construction and term loan in an amount of approximately $41 million.

Financing of Phase II of Olkaria III Project

We are currently negotiating the financing of Phase II of Olkaria III project. In connection with such financing we signed a mandate letter with a financial institution to arrange a long term-loan.

Full Recourse Debt

Our full recourse third party debt includes the following loans: (i) a $20.0 million credit facility from United Mizrahi Bank, of which we repaid the outstanding balance of $20.0 million on February 10, 2005; the full amount of the line of credit remains available through December 31, 2005 and is guaranteed by our parent. (ii) A medium term loan from Israel's Industrial Development Bank, the $3.3 million outstanding balance of which was fully repaid on March 10, 2005, and (iii) a medium term loan from Bank Hapoalim, of which $3.0 million was outstanding as of June 30, 2005, bearing an interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.7% per annum.

In connection with our acquisition through Ormat Systems Ltd. of the power generation business from our parent, we entered into certain agreements of which only those with each of Bank Hapoalim, Bank Leumi and United Mizrahi Bank remain. Under these agreements, in exchange for such banks' release of our parent's guarantee (which has not yet been finalized for United Mizrahi

40




Bank) and a release of their security interest over the assets of our subsidiary, Ormat Systems, we and Ormat Systems have agreed to certain negative covenants, including, but not limited to, a prohibition on: (i) creating any floating charge or any permanent pledge, charge or lien over our assets without obtaining the prior written approval of the lender, (ii) guaranteeing the liabilities of any third party without obtaining the prior written approval of the lender, and (iii) selling, assigning, transferring, conveying or disposing of all or substantially all of our assets. In some cases, we and Ormat Systems have agreed to maintain certain financial ratios such as a debt service coverage ratio and a debt to equity ratio. We do not expect that these covenants or ratios, which apply to us on a consolidated basis, will materially limit our ability to execute our future business plans or our operations. The failure to perform or observe any of the covenants set forth in such agreements, subject to various cure periods, would result in the occurrence of an event of default and would enable the lenders to accelerate all amounts due under each such agreement.

We do not expect that any third party debt that we, or any of our subsidiaries, will incur in the future will be guaranteed by our parent.

Some of the agreements to which we or our subsidiaries are a party contain cross-default provisions with respect to other material indebtedness owed by us or them to any third party.

Our management believes that we are currently in compliance with our covenants with respect to our third-party debt.

Letters of Credit

From time to time, Bank Leumi and Bank Hapoalim have issued, as security for certain of our obligations, performance letters of credit in favor of our customers. In some cases, our parent is the obligor in respect of any reimbursement obligations to the bank with respect to such letters of credit. Pursuant to certain existing agreements with our parent described elsewhere in this quarterly report, we are required to pay to our parent a fee with respect to such letters of credit and we are responsible to reimburse our parent for any draw or payment made under these letters of credit. As of June 30, 2005, Bank Leumi and Bank Hapoalim have agreed to make available to us letters of credit in the amount of $20.3 million and $8.1 million, respectively. As of such date, Bank Leumi and Bank Hapoalim have issued letters of credit in the amount of $15.8 million and $6.9 million, respectively. Accordingly, a further $4.5 million and $1.2 million remain available under the arrangement with Bank Leumi and Bank Hapoalim, respectively.

Our subsidiary, Ormat Nevada, has also entered into a letter of credit agreement with Hudson United Bank, which is described in further detail under Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements" below.

Refinancing of the Puna Project

On May 19, 2005, our subsidiary in Hawaii, PGV, completed a refinancing of the cost of its June 2004 acquisition of the Puna project geothermal power plant located on the Big Island of Hawaii. The refinancing was concluded with financing parties by means of a leveraged lease transaction as described under "Recent developments". The proceeds from the refinancing will be used for future capital expenditures and for general corporate purposes.

Pursuant to a 31-year head lease, PGV leased its geothermal power plant to an unrelated company in return for a prepaid lease payment in the amount of $71 million. Deferred transaction costs amounted to $4.2 million.

Dividend

In accordance with our dividend policy, prior to our initial public offering we declared an interim dividend of $2.5 million ($0.1025 per share) for 2004 to our parent company, Ormat Industries, which was paid on March 2, 2005. In accordance with such dividend policy, on March 22, 2005, we declared, approved and authorized the payment of a quarterly dividend of $947,000 ($0.03 per share), which was paid on April 18, 2005. On May 10, 2005, we declared, approved and authorized payment of a

41




quarterly dividend of $947,000 ($0.03 per share) to all holders of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock on May 23, 2005, which was paid on June 6, 2005. On August 11, 2005, we declared, approved and authorized payment of a quarterly dividend of $947,000 ($0.03 per share) to all holders of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock on August 22, 2005, payable on September 1, 2005. We expect to pay a similar dividend for the third quarter of the fiscal year 2005.

Historical Cash Flows

The following table sets forth the components of our cash flows for the relevant periods indicated:


  Six Months ended
June 30
  2005 2004
  (in thousands)
Net cash provided by operating activities $ 35,200   $ 22,660  
Net cash used in investing activities   (36,909   (233,129
Net cash provided by financing activities   12,183     222,766  
Net increase in cash and cash equivalents   10,474     12,297  

For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2005

Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was $35.2 million, as compared with net cash provided by operating activities of $22.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. Such net increase of $12.5 million resulted primarily from the following: (i) an increase of $14.8 million in accounts payable and accrued expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2005 as compared with an increase of $4.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 due to the increase of our activities relating mainly to projects under construction for third parties, (ii) an increase of $4.0 million in depreciation and amortization to $18.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005 from $14.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as a result of the acquisitions of the Steamboat 2/3 project, the Steamboat Hills project and the Puna project, and (iii) an increase of $8.8 million in accounts receivable for the six months ended June 30, 2005 due to increased revenues in the Electricity Segment, as compared to an increase of $4.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004.

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was $36.9 million, as compared with $233.1 million used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The principal factor that affected our cash flow used in investing activities during the first half of 2005 was capital expenditures of $48.8 million primarily for our power facilities under construction. Such cash used in investing activities was offset by a decrease of $31.5 million in marketable securities of which $20.8 million was allocated to restricted cash. The cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2004 primarily included $174.3 million of cash used for the acquisition of the Steamboat 2/3, Steamboat Hills and Puna projects. In addition our restricted cash and cash equivalents during the six months ended June 30, 2004 increased by $50.7 million resulting primarily from the issuance by Ormat Funding of $190.0 million of its 8 1/4% Senior Secured Notes. A portion of the proceeds from the issuance of such Senior Secured Notes was escrowed and reserved for additional investments in the Galena project and to repay the loan from United Capital to fund the acquisition of the Ormesa project.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was $12.2 million, as compared with $222.8 million provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The principal factors that affected the cash flow provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2005 were the prepaid lease payment of $71.0 million pursuant to the leveraged lease transaction (less $3.7 million deferred cost related to such lease transaction), the repayment of short-term and long-term debt in the amount of $31.1 million, repayment of debt to our parent in the amount of $19.6 million, and the payment of a dividend to our shareholders in the amount of $4.4 million. The principal factors that affected the cash flow provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2004 were the $190.0 million in proceeds (less $8.9 million

42




in debt issuance costs) from the issuance of Ormat Funding 81/4% Senior Secured Notes, which were used to finance the acquisition of the Steamboat 2/3 project and to refinance the acquisition of the Ormesa, Brady, Mammoth and Steamboat 1/A projects.

Capital Expenditures

Our capital expenditures primarily relate to two principal components: the enhancement of our existing power plants and the development of new power plants. In addition, we have budgeted approximately $5.0 million for 2005 and 2006 for buildings and for the acquisition of machinery and equipment.

To the extent not otherwise described below, we expect that the following enhancements of our existing power plants will be funded from internally generated cash or other available corporate resources, which we expect to subsequently refinance with non or limited recourse debt at the project level. Initially, we intend to fund the construction projects described below from internally generated cash or other available corporate resources. We currently do not contemplate obtaining any new loans from our parent company.

Mammoth Project.    We commenced drilling activities at the Mammoth project under an approximately $8.3 million enhancement program ($4.15 million to be funded by us), which we believe will result in an increase in the output of the project by 4 MW. Such enhancement program is expected to be completed in 2006. A substantial portion of the funds required for such enhancement have been earmarked from the project's funds by us and our partners.

Heber Complex.    In connection with the Heber 1 and 2 projects and the Goulds Plant, we are currently pursuing a program consisting of geothermal field optimization, the drilling of an additional well and the addition of Ormat Energy Converter (OEC") units at the Heber projects in order to increase the generating capacity of the Heber 1 and 2 projects by an estimated 18 MW, for an estimated total budgeted investment of approximately $30.5 million. As of June 30, 2005, approximately $20.7 million in costs had been incurred related to the Heber project. On May 6, 2005, we completed negotiations and we expect to enter into a definitive agreement in the coming few weeks for a new 25-year power purchase agreement with SCPPA for the purchase of 10 MW of energy for a fixed price of $57.50/MWh which will escalate annually at a rate of 1.5%. Delivery of energy under this power purchase agreement is scheduled to begin at the end of 2005. Equipment manufacturing is in progress, the well drilling is almost completed and site construction has recently started.

Puna Project.    In connection with the Puna project, we are currently pursuing an approximately $19.0 million enhancement program which is designed to increase the output of the project by an estimated 5 MW and to improve its reliability. As of June 30, 2005, approximately $4.8 million in costs had been incurred related to the enhancement project. On June 30, we completed the re-drilling of an existing well, which increased the output by approximately 4 MW and we started the drilling of a new well. We expect that such enhancement program will be completed in the fourth quarter of 2005. Currently the project sells approximately 29 MW during peak hours and has a contractual commitment to sell 22 MW during off-peak hours.

Ormesa Project.    In connection with the Ormesa project, we have drilled two additional wells, plan to add additional OEC units and replace existing units in order to increase the output of the project by an estimated 10 MW. We estimate that the costs of such enhancements will be up to $36.0 million. As of June 30, 2005, approximately $4.3 million in costs had been incurred related to the enhancement project. On May 6, 2005, we completed negotiations and we expect to enter into definitive agreement in the coming few weeks for a new 25-year power purchase agreement with SCPPA for the purchase of 10 MW of energy for a fixed price $57.50/MWh which will escalate annually at a rate of 1.5%. Delivery of energy under this power purchase agreement is expected to begin in the fourth quarter of 2006.

Galena Project.    We commenced construction of the Galena project during the third quarter of 2004, started site construction in the first quarter of 2005 and expect to complete construction and

43




commence commercial operations in the fourth quarter of 2005. Construction costs of $25.4 million are being funded from the proceeds of Ormat Funding's offering of Senior Secured Notes, $8.9 million of which is currently deposited in an escrow account, and will be released in accordance with the progress of the construction phase for such enhancement. As of June 30, 2005, approximately $16.4 million in costs had been incurred related to the Galena project. Based on the final design of the project, we plan to increase the Steamboat complex output by 13 MW.

Desert Peak 2 Project.    In connection with the Desert Peak 2 project, we have already drilled the necessary production wells and we began the manufacturing and construction of the associated power plant, which is expected to be completed at the end of 2005 or the first quarter of 2006. The total construction cost for the construction of the 15 MW power plant is estimated to be $35.0 million. As of June 30, 2005, approximately $18.1 million in costs had been incurred related to the Desert Peak 2 project.

Galena 2 Project (formerly Desert Peak 3 Project).    In connection with the Galena 2 project, we plan to construct a power plant in the Steamboat complex, which will supply electricity under the Galena 2 power purchase agreement. We commenced drilling of the wells. The total construction cost for the construction of the 10 MW power plant is estimated to be $22.0 million. We estimate that the construction of the Galena 2 project will be performed during 2005 and 2006.

Amatitlan Project.    The Amatitlan project is scheduled to be completed in 2006 at an aggregate construction cost for the 20 MW plant of approximately $32.5 million. We commenced construction of the plant and as of June 30, 2005, approximately $6.8 million in costs had been incurred related to the Amatitlan project. The municipal local authorities have claimed that a construction license is required for the project while our local counsel has advised us that no such license is required under the applicable laws and regulations. We are simultaneously proceeding to challenge the claim of the local municipal authorities and to obtain the construction license.

OREG 1 Project.    The recovered energy project is scheduled to be completed in 2006 at an aggregate construction cost for the 22 MW plant of approximately $35.0 million. As of June 30, 2005, approximately $5.1 million in costs had been incurred related to this project.

Phase II of Olkaria III Project.    In connection with Phase II of Olkaria III project, we have completed the drilling of the wells and are currently producing a conceptual design of the power plant. We expect the construction costs of the 35 MW power plant to range somewhere between $60 and $80 million.

In addition to the above projects we plan to start the construction and enhancement of additional projects in a total amount of approximately $10.0 million.

Other than the enhancements and new projects described above, and a possible further enhancement to the Ormesa project which is in the early stages of conceptual design, we do not anticipate any other material capital expenditures in the near term for any of our operating projects, other than ordinary maintenance requirements, which we typically fund with internally generated cash.

Exposure to Market Risks

One market risk to which power plants are typically exposed is the volatility of electricity prices. Our exposure to such market risk is limited currently because our long-term power purchase agreements have fixed or escalating rate provisions that limit our exposure to changes in electricity prices. However, beginning in May 2007, the energy payments under the power purchase agreements for the Heber 1 and 2 projects, the Ormesa project and the Mammoth project will be determined by reference to the relevant power purchaser's short run avoided costs. The Puna project is currently benefiting from energy prices which are higher than the floor under the Puna power purchase agreement, as a result of the high fuel costs that impact Hawaii Electric Light Company's avoided costs. In addition, under certain of the power purchase agreements for our projects in Nevada, the price that Sierra Pacific Power Company pays for energy and capacity is based upon its short run avoided costs. We estimate that energy payments will represent approximately two-thirds of those projects' revenues after 2007 and as a result, expect that there will be some volatility in the revenues received from such projects.

44




As of June 30, 2005, 52.8% of our consolidated long-term debt (excluding amounts owed to our parent) was in the form of fixed rate securities and therefore not subject to interest rate volatility risk. As of such date, 47.2% of our debt was in the form of a floating rate instrument, exposing us to changes in interest rates in connection therewith. In order to mitigate such risks, we have acquired an interest rate cap of 6.0% with respect to the LIBOR component of the interest rate applicable to the Beal Bank loan from 2007 to 2011. We do not expect that a 300 basis point increase or decrease from current interest rates would have a material adverse effect on our financial position, but will have an effect on our results of operations and cash flows. As of June 30, 2005, $303.1 million of our debt, including $136.2 million owed to our parent, remained subject to some floating rate risk. As such, we are exposed to changes in interest rates with respect to our long-term obligations. The detrimental effect on our pre-tax earnings of a hypothetical 50 basis point increase in interest rates would be approximately $1.5 million. See "Liquidity and Capital Resources" above for further discussion of our debt instruments.

In anticipation of the refinancing of the acquisition cost of our Puna project, on February 25, 2005, we entered into a rate lock agreement with Lehman Brothers Special Financing, Inc. at a locked-in treasury rate of 4.31%, with a notional amount of $52.0 million, which was terminated on March 31, 2005. The rate lock was based on a 10-year treasury security that matures on February 15, 2015. On March 31, 2005, we received from the counterparty to the rate lock agreement the amount of $658,000. This amount net of related taxes of $250,000 is recorded in our financial statements as "Gain in respect of derivative instruments designated for cash flow hedge, net of related taxes" under "Other comprehensive income (loss)" and will be amortized over the 23-year term of the Project Lease.

On April 20, 2005, we entered into a new rate lock agreement with the abovementioned financial institution, at a locked-in treasury rate of 4.22%, with a notional amount of $52.0 million, and originally scheduled to terminate on May 2, 2005. The new rate lock agreement's termination date was extended until May 18, 2005 at a new locked-in treasury rate of 4.25%. The rate lock was based on a 10-year treasury security that matures on February 15, 2015. On May 18, 2005, we paid the counterparty to the rate lock agreement the amount of $762,000. This amount net of related taxes of $290,000 is recorded in our financial statements as a "Loss in respect of derivative instruments designated for cash flow hedge, net of related taxes" under "Other comprehensive income (loss)" and will be amortized over the 23-year term of the Project Lease.

Another market risk to which we are exposed is primarily related to potential adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates, in particular the fluctuation of the U.S. dollar versus the new Israeli shekel. Risks attributable to fluctuations in currency exchange rates can arise when any of our foreign subsidiaries borrows funds or incurs operating or other expenses in one type of currency but receives revenues in another. In such cases, an adverse change in exchange rates can reduce such subsidiary's ability to meet its debt service obligations, reduce the amount of cash and income we receive from such foreign subsidiary or increase such subsidiary's overall expenses. Risks attributable to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates can arise when the currency-denomination of a particular contract is not the U.S. dollar. All of our power purchase agreements in the international markets are either U.S. dollar-denominated or linked to the U.S. dollar. Our construction contacts from time to time contemplate costs which are incurred in local currencies. For example, in February 2005 we signed a contract in the amount of approximately $24 million for construction of a power plant which is denominated in Euros. A substantial portion of such contract will be matched by costs denominated in Euros. The way we often mitigate such risk is to receive part of the proceeds from the sale contract in the currency in which the expenses are incurred. Currently, we have not used any material foreign currency exchange contracts or other derivative instruments to reduce our exposure to this risk. In the future, we may use such foreign currency exchange contracts and other derivative instruments to reduce our foreign currency exposure to the extent we deem such instruments to be the appropriate tool for managing such exposure. We do not believe that our exchange rate exposure has or will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

We currently maintain our surplus cash in short-term, interest-bearing bank deposits and Preferred Auctioned Rate Securities, which we refer to as PARS (deposits of entities with a minimum investment grade rating of AA (by Standard & Poor's Ratings Services)).

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

On June 30, 2004, our subsidiary, Ormat Nevada, entered into a Letter of Credit Agreement with Hudson United Bank, pursuant to which Hudson United Bank agreed to issue one or more letters of credit in an aggregate face amount of up to $15.0 million. As of the date hereof, two letters of credit have been issued pursuant to this facility. The first was issued in favor of the trustee for the 8¼% Senior Secured Notes, for a face amount of $8.1 million, which was increased by an additional amount of $2.7 million on December 30, 2004. The second was issued in favor of Beal Bank, for a face amount of $3.6 million. Such letters of credit have been issued to substitute for current cash balances in respective reserve accounts. The unrestricted cash resulting from this exchange was used for working capital and reductions of outstanding bank debt. As of June 30, 2005, such letters of credit have not been renewed by us. Under this Letter of Credit Agreement, in the event that the bank is required to pay on a letter of credit drawn by the beneficiary thereof, such letter of credit converts to a loan, bearing interest at LIBOR plus 4.0%, and matures on the next expiration date of the Letter of Credit Agreement. There are various restrictive covenants under the Letter of Credit Agreement, which include maintaining certain levels of tangible net worth, leverage ratio, and minimum coverage ratio. Our management believes that we are currently in compliance with our covenants.

On July 15, 2004, we entered into a reimbursement agreement with Ormat Industries, pursuant to which we agreed to reimburse Ormat Industries for any draws made on any standby letter of credit under which Ormat Industries is obligor and which is subject to the guarantee fee agreement between us and Ormat Industries. Interest on any amounts owing pursuant to the reimbursement agreement is paid in U.S. dollars at a rate per annum equal to Ormat Industries' average effective cost of funds plus 0.3%, which currently amounts to 7.5%.

Some of our customers require our project subsidiaries to post letters of credit in order to guarantee their respective performance under relevant contracts. We are also required to post letters of credit to secure our obligations under various leases and licenses and may, from time to time, decide to post letters of credit in lieu of cash deposits in reserve accounts under certain financing arrangements. In addition, our subsidiary, Ormat Systems, is required from time to time to post performance letters of credit in favor of our customers with respect to orders of products.

Bank Leumi and Bank Hapoalim have issued such performance letters of credit in favor of our customers from time to time. Initially, our parent, Ormat Industries, was the obligor in respect of any reimbursement obligations on such letters of credit and we paid our parent a guarantee fee and were responsible to reimburse our parent for any draw under these letters of credit. In connection with the acquisition of the power generation business by Ormat Systems from our parent, we have assumed such letters of credit and are now the direct obligor of Bank Leumi and Bank Hapoalim on most of such letters of credit. As of June 30, 2005, Bank Leumi and Bank Hapoalim have agreed to make available to us letters of credit totaling $20.3 million and $8.1 million, respectively. As of such date, Bank Leumi and Bank Hapoalim have issued letters of credit in the amount of $15.8 million and $6.9 million, respectively. Out of these amounts, letters of credits totaling $7.1 million and $1.7 million from Bank Leumi and Bank Hapoalim, respectively, have been obtained by our parent and issued on our behalf.

As of the date hereof, we have not had a draw presented against any letter of credit issued or provided on our behalf.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Our credit risk is currently concentrated with a limited number of major customers: Sierra Pacific Power Company, Southern California Edison Company, Hawaii Electric Light Company, PNOC-Energy Development Corporation, The Kenya Power and Lighting Company Limited and two

46




electric distribution companies which are assignees of Empresa Nicaraguense de Electricidad. If any of these electric utilities fails to make payments under its power purchase agreements with us, such failure would have a material adverse impact on our financial condition.

Southern California Edison Company accounted for 38.8% and 42.4% of our total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, and 36.2% and 41.6% of our total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Southern California Edison Company is also the power purchaser and revenue source for our Mammoth project, which we account for separately under the equity method of accounting.

Sierra Pacific Power Company accounted for 14.1% and 14.3% of our total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, and 15.5% and 13.1% of our total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Following the acquisition of the Puna project in June 2004, Hawaii Electric Light Company became one of our key customers, accounting for 12.7% and 13.5% of our total revenues for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2005, respectively.

PNOC-Energy Development Corporation accounted for 3.1% of our total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The results of operations of the Leyte project which sells electricity to PNOC were deconsolidated as of April 1, 2004.

The two electric distribution companies which are assignees of Empresa Nicaraguense de Electricidad accounted for 5.2% and 5.7% of our total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, and 5.5% and 6.0% of our total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The Kenya Power & Lighting Co. Ltd. accounted for 4.6% and 4.6% of our total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, and 4.7% and 4.8% of our total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Government Grants and Tax Benefits

Our subsidiary, Ormat Systems, has received "Approved Enterprise" status under Israel's Law for Encouragement of Capital Investments, 1959, with respect to two of its investment programs. One such approval was received in 1996 and the other was received in May 2004. As an Approved Enterprise, our subsidiary is exempt from Israeli income taxes with respect to income derived from the approved investment program for a period of two years commencing on the year it first generates profits from the approved investment program, and thereafter such income is subject to reduced Israeli income tax rates of 25% for an additional five years. These benefits are subject to certain conditions set forth in the certificate of approval from Israel's Investment Center that include, among other things, a requirement that Ormat Systems comply with Israeli intellectual property law, that all transactions between Ormat Systems and our affiliates be at arms length, and that there will be no change in control of, on a cumulative basis, more than 49% of Ormat Systems' capital stock (including by way of a public offering) without the prior written approval of the Investment Center.

Prior to 2003, our research and development efforts were partially funded through grants from the Office of the Chief Scientist of the Israeli Ministry of Industry, Trade and Labor. We currently have no such grants available or outstanding. Under Israeli law, we are required to pay royalties to the Israeli government based on revenues derived from the sale of products developed with the assistance of such grants. The applicable royalty rate is between of 3.5% to 5.0%, and the amount of royalties required to be paid are capped at the amount of the grants received (in U.S. dollars). The outstanding balance of grants provided after January 1, 1999 accrue interest at a rate equal to the 12-month LIBOR, as published on the first day of the calendar year in which the particular grant was approved. Because the royalties are payable only from revenues, if any, derived from the relevant products, we only recognize a royalty expense to the government upon delivery of the product to our customers.

Risk Factors

A comprehensive discussion of our risk factors is included in the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" section of our annual report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2004.

ITEM 3.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We incorporate by reference the information appearing under "Exposure to Market Risks" and "Concentration of Credit Risk" in Part I, Item 2 of this Form 10-Q.

ITEM 4.    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

a.  Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. The evaluation included certain control areas in which we have made, and are continuing to make, changes to improve and enhance controls. Based on that evaluation as of June 30, 2005, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) were effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q was recorded, processed, summarized and reported accurately and within the time periods specified within the SEC's rules and instructions for Form 10-Q. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

b.  Changes in internal controls over financial reporting

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting in the first six months of 2005 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls over financial reporting.

We are further enhancing our documentation and analyzing our system of internal controls. We have initially identified areas of our internal controls requiring improvement, and are in the process of designing enhanced processes and controls to address issues identified through this review. Areas of improvement include enhancing and streamlining our domestic and international financial reporting procedures. We plan to continue this initiative, as well as prepare for our first management report on internal control over financial reporting, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, on December 31, 2005.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

There were no material developments in any legal proceedings to which the Company is a party during the first six months of fiscal year 2005 from those previously reported in Part I, Item 3 of our annual report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2004.

From time to time, we (and our subsidiaries) are a party to various other lawsuits, claims and other legal and regulatory proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our (and their) business. These actions typically seek, among other things, compensation for alleged personal injury, breach of contract, property damage, punitive damages, civil penalties or other losses, or injunctive or declaratory relief. With respect to such lawsuits, claims and proceedings, we accrue reserves in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. We do not believe that any of these proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, would materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, future results and cash flows.

ITEM 2.    UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

On November 10, 2004, the SEC declared effective our registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-117527) (Registration Statement") for our Initial Public Offering. Under the Registration Statement, we registered and sold 7,187,500 shares of our common stock. All of the 7,187,500 shares sold in that offering were sold at $15.00 per share. The offering closed on November 16, 2004. The underwriting syndicate was managed by Lehman Brothers Inc., Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., RBC Capital Markets Corporation, and Wells Fargo Securities LLC.

The aggregate gross proceeds from the sale of 7,187,500 shares of common stock were $107.8 million. The aggregate net proceeds to us after the offering were $97.0 million, after deducting an aggregate of $7.5 million in underwriting discounts and commissions paid to the underwriters and $3.3 million in other expenses incurred in connection with the offering.

As of the date of this filing, we invested $14.0 million out of the net proceeds in interest-bearing investment-grade instruments and bank deposits; we repaid third party loans in the amount of $23.3 million and used $59.7 million for corporate purposes, including $31.0 million for capital expenditures and $7.0 million to repay loans from our parent, Ormat Industries Ltd.

ITEM 3.    DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

None.

ITEM 4.    SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

On May 9, 2005, we held our 2005 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

     Claims, would result in Total Aggregate Claims in excess of $1,500,000.


                                       13



                    (ii) Except as disclosed in the Environmental Report, the
     Lessee is complying with, and since June 3, 2004 has complied with, and the
     Project has been constructed and is being operated in compliance with, all
     Environmental Laws, provided that if such failure to so comply exists, such
     failure would not result in one or more Claims against or being incurred by
     the Lessee or against or in respect of the Project which when added to all
     other Total Aggregate Claims, would result in Total Aggregate Claims in
     excess of $1,500,000, and there is no pending action, proceeding or, to the
     Lessee's Actual Knowledge, investigation or inquiry by any Person with
     respect to asserting liability for a violation of or noncompliance with any
     Environmental Laws, and there are no capital expenditures currently
     required under applicable Environmental Laws in order to maintain such
     compliance, provided that, in each case, if such a Claim exists, such Claim
     when combined with any Claims against or being incurred by the Lessee or
     against or in respect of the Project which when added to all other Total
     Aggregate Claims, would not result in Total Aggregate Claims in excess of
     $1,500,000.

                    (iii) Except as disclosed in the Environmental Report, to
     the Lessee's Actual Knowledge, there is not and has not been any
     Environmental Condition (A) at, on, under or from the Project or the
     Project Site or (B) resulting from or arising in connection with the
     operation of the Project, or any other circumstances, actions, activities
     or events that could reasonably be expected to (x) result in any danger of
     foreclosure, sale, forfeiture or loss of, or imposition of a Lien on, the
     Project or Project Site, (y) result in the impairment of the ownership,
     construction, operation, use, leasing or maintenance of the Project or the
     Project Site, or (z) reasonably form the basis of any liability under an
     Environmental Law to the Lessee, or any liability (civil or criminal) to
     the Indenture Trustee, the Equity Investor, the Owner Lessor or any
     Noteholder, provided that if any such lien, impairment or liability exists,
     they would not result in one or more Claims against or being incurred by
     the Lessee or against or in respect of the Project which when added to all
     other Total Aggregate Claims, would result in Total Aggregate Claims in
     excess of $1,500,000.

                    (iv) Except as disclosed in the Environmental Report, no
     Governmental Approvals are required under Environmental Laws to own,
     construct, operate, use, lease or maintain the Project in accordance with
     the Operative Documents. All Governmental Approvals necessary to operate
     the Project have been obtained and are in full force and effect and none of
     such Governmental Approvals are subject to any appeal, or any other
     judicial review and the Lessee is in compliance with the provisions of all
     such Governmental Approvals, which involve any danger of impairment of the
     use, operation or maintenance of the Project or the Project Site in any
     respect, including the


                                       14



     rescission, termination or modification of any such Governmental Approvals,
     provided that if such a failure to obtain, maintain the effectiveness of,
     or comply with such Governmental Approvals exists, such failure is not
     reasonably likely to result in one or more Claims against or being incurred
     by the Lessee or against or in respect of the Project which when added to
     all other Total Aggregate Claims, would result in Total Aggregate Claims in
     excess of $1,500,000.

               (n) Applicable Law. The Lessee is in compliance with all
Applicable Laws (excluding Environmental Laws which is covered in Section 3.1(m)
hereunder) relating to the operation, maintenance, use or ownership of the
Project, except where noncompliance is not reasonably likely to result in one or
more Claims against or being incurred by the Lessee or against or in respect of
the Project which when added to all other Total Aggregate Claims, would result
in Total Aggregate Claims in excess of $1,500,000.

               (o) ERISA. Assuming the correctness of the representations of the
Equity Investor in Section 3.4(g) and of the Noteholders in Section 3.5(d), the
Transaction will not constitute a "prohibited transaction" within the meaning of
Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975(c)(1) of the Code, and will not involve any
transaction in connection with which a penalty could be imposed under Section
502(i) of ERISA or a tax could be imposed pursuant to Section 4975 of the Code.

               (p) No Lease Event of Default; No Event of Loss. No Lease Default

     of the Project at the levels of performance contemplated by the Operative
     Documents for the period from the date hereof through the term of the
     Project Lease (it being understood that such level shall be up to 30 MW
     unless the Owner Lessor has purchased the Expansion Project) (including
     electrical, water and sewage services and facilities) are available to the
     Project pursuant to the Project Documents or otherwise on commercially
     reasonable terms.

                    (ii) The services to be performed, the materials to be
     supplied and the property interests, easements and other rights granted
     pursuant to the Project Documents or otherwise publicly available on
     commercially reasonable terms comprise all of the services, materials and
     property interests required for the


                                       15

     maintenance of the Project (including access to, and transmission of
     electricity from, the Project Site) in accordance with Applicable Laws and
     the Project Documents.

               (r) Eminent Domain. There is no action pending or, to the
Lessee's Actual Knowledge, threatened by a Governmental Entity or other Person
to initiate a taking or use of the Project or the Project Site through
condemnation, seizure, requisition of title, power of eminent domain or
otherwise, which is reasonably likely to have an adverse effect on the value
(current and residual), utility or useful life of the Project or would prevent
or interfere with the use or operation of the Project, provided that if such
interference exists, it would not result in one or more Claims against or being
incurred by the Lessee or against or in respect of the Project which when added
to all other Total Aggregate Claims, would result in Total Aggregate Claims in
excess of $1,500,000.

               (s) Permitted Encumbrances. There are no violations of or
proceedings or actions pending or, to the Lessee's Actual Knowledge, threatened
with respect to any easements, reciprocal easement agreements, declarations,
development agreements or recorded restrictions or covenants which (i) would
result in one or more Claims against or being incurred by the Lessee or against
or in respect of the Project which when added to all other Total Aggregate
Claims, would result in Total Aggregate Claims in excess of $1,500,000 or (ii)
enjoin or prevent (A) the use, occupancy or operation of the Project or the
Project Site for the purposes contemplated by the Operative Documents or (B) the
performance by the Lessee of its obligations under this Agreement or any other
Operative Document the failure of which performance would result in one or more
Claims against or being incurred by the Lessee or against or in respect of the
Project which when added to all other Total Aggregate Claims, would result in
Total Aggregate Claims in excess of $1,500,000.

               (t) Power Purchase Agreements; Transmission Agreements. Except
for the Power Purchase Agreement and the Transmission Agreements, there are no
contracts or agreements to which Lessee is a party providing for the sale of the
energy produced by the Project.

               (u) Geothermal Resource. Except for the Resource Sublease, the
Resource Sublease Partial Assignment, the Sublease of Resource Sublease and the
Sub-Sublease of Resource Sublease, there are no contracts or agreements to which
Lessee is a party providing for the sale or transfer of the Geothermal Resource.

               (v) Financial Statements; Accuracy of Information; Projections.

                    (i) The unaudited financial statements of the Lessee dated
     as of December 31, 2004 for the period starting on June 3, 2004 and ending
     on


                                       16



     December 31, 2004 and the unaudited pro forma balance sheet of the Lessee
     as of the quarter ended not more than sixty (60) days prior to the Closing
     Date and, in each case, delivered to the Participants pursuant to Section
     4(cc), are the most recent financial statements prepared by the Lessee
     prior to the execution and delivery of this Participation Agreement, and
     are true and correct, and fairly present the financial condition, results
     of operations and changes in cash flows of the Lessee on such date and for
     such period then ended, in conformity with GAAP applied on a consistent
     basis (subject to normal year-end audit adjustments). Except as have been
     disclosed in writing by the Lessee to the Participants, there are no
     liabilities, direct or contingent, which have accrued since the date of
     such financial statements or such subsequent disclosure, except for any
     liability that, if disclosed to any Participant, as the case may be, would
     not be likely to adversely affect the decision of such Participant to enter
     into the Transaction. Since the date of such financial statements, there
     has been no change in the financial condition of the Lessee which has
     resulted in a reduction of the tangible net worth of the Lessee in an
     amount of $500,000 or more, taking into account all changes previously
     disclosed to the Participants.

                    (ii) All factual information (other than projections or
     other "forward-looking" statements) provided by or on behalf of the Lessee
     to the Participants was true and correct, as of the date delivered or as of
     the specific date of any particular items of information, and such
     information did not, and as of the date hereof, does not omit to state any
     fact necessary to make the statements contained in the information
     providing not misleading in a way which would be likely to adversely affect
     the decision of such Participant to enter into the Transaction. Any
     historical factual information used in making such projections and other
     "forward-looking" statements is, to the Lessee's Actual Knowledge, true and
     accurate in all material respects. The Annual Operating Budget for 2005 and
     the Projections delivered pursuant to Sections 4(h) and (o) herein (i) are
     based on reasonable assumptions as to all legal and factual matters
     material to the estimates set forth therein and (ii) have been prepared in
     good faith and with due care, it being understood that the Projections were
     prepared on the assumption that the Well Improvements are included in the
     Project. To the Lessee's Actual Knowledge, any such information provided
     with respect to any party to a Project Document (other than the Power
     Purchaser) does not, as of the date delivered, omit to state any fact,
     except for any fact that, if true or if disclosed to any Participant, as
     the case may be, would not be likely to adversely affect the decision of
     such Participant to enter into the Transaction.

               (w) No Fees. Neither the Lessee nor any Person authorized or
employed by the Lessee as agent or otherwise has taken any action the effect of
which would be to cause any Participant to be liable for any brokers', finders',
agents' or


                                       17


advisors' fees or commissions or costs of any nature or kind claimed by or on
behalf of brokers, finders, agents or advisors in respect of the transactions
contemplated by the Operative Documents.

               (x) Adequate Rights.

                    (i) Subject to the Owner Lessor's obtaining any necessary
     Governmental Approvals and fulfilling all applicable requirements under the
     Project Documents, it is the good faith belief of the Lessee as of the
     Closing Date that the rights and interest to be made available to the Owner
     Lessor pursuant to the Operative Documents permit, or will permit at such
     time, during the period commencing on the expiration or termination of the
     Project Lease Term and ending on the expiration of the Head Lease Term (A)
     the location, occupation, interconnection, maintenance and repair of the
     Project, (B) the use, operation and possession of the Project in accordance
     with the Projections, (C) appropriate ingress to and egress from the
     Project and the Project Site for any reasonable purpose in connection with
     the exercise of rights under the Operative Documents and (D) the
     transmission of electricity from the Project substantially in the manner
     currently transmitted as of the Closing Date; provided, however, that this
     representation is based solely upon the facts as they exist on the Closing
     Date and Applicable Laws in effect on the Closing Date and existing market
     conditions, and no representation, projection or other statement is being
     made in this paragraph with respect to any change in law or regulations
     including Environmental Laws (whether or not proposed or contemplated), any
     change in market conditions, any other change in facts or circumstances
     after the Closing Date; or any modification, improvement or change to the
     Project or the Project Site after the expiration of the Project Lease Term.

                    (ii) There are no subleases, rental agreements or other
     agreements conferring on any Person other than the Lessee the right to use
     or occupy all or any portion of the Project or the Project Site except
     those, if any, reflected in the Title Policies or permitted or arising
     pursuant to the Operative Documents.

               (y) Qualification to do Business. The qualification of the Owner
Lessor, the Equity Investor, the Trust Company, the Indenture Trustee or any
Noteholder to do business under the laws of the State of Hawaii or any political
subdivision thereof is not required solely as a consequence of the execution and
delivery of the Operative Documents, the making of the Equity Investment or the
Loans or, prior to expiration or termination of the Project Lease, the
performance by the Owner Lessor, the Equity Investor, the Trust Company, the
Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders of this Agreement or any other Operative
Document to which it is or will be a party; provided that no


                                       18



representation is made as to the necessity for qualification in connection with
the exercise by any such party of any remedy under the Operative Documents or
prior to exercising any rights or remedies in a Hawaii court of competent
jurisdiction.

               (z) ERISA and Employees. The Lessee does not sponsor, maintain,
administer, contribute to, participate in, or have any obligation to contribute
to or any liability under, any employee benefit plan within the meaning of
Section 3(3) of ERISA nor since the date which is six years immediately
preceding the Closing Date has Lessee established, sponsored, maintained,
administered, contributed to, participated in, had any obligation to contribute
to or liability under, any such plan. The Lessee does not have, nor is the
Lessee reasonably expected to have, any liability in respect to any defined
benefit pension plan of any ERISA Affiliate that is subject to Title IV of
ERISA.

the filing of and is not aware of any financing statements against the Lessee
that include a description of collateral covering the Collateral under the
Lessee Security Agreement other than any financing statement relating to
Permitted Liens described in clauses (a) through (c) of the definition thereof.
Other than Permitted Liens, the Lessee is not aware of any judgment or tax liens
against the Lessee.

               (bb) Insurance. All insurance required under Section 11 of the
Project Lease or any Operative Document is in full force and effect.

               (cc) Pledge of the Accounts. Other than the security interest
granted to the Owner Lessor and, until the Lien of the Indenture has been
discharged, collaterally assigned to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the
Depositary Agreement, the Lessee has not pledged, assigned, sold, granted a
security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of the Accounts.

               (dd) Taxes. All Taxes, if any, due and payable on or before the
Closing Date in connection with the execution, delivery, recording and filing of
this Agreement or any other Operative Document or any other document or
instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, have been duly paid in full by, or on
behalf of, the Lessee.

               (ee) Access; Egress. Access to and egress from the Project and
the Project Site are available and provided by public and/or private roads fully
accessible by Lessee. To the Lessee's Actual Knowledge, there are no plans of
any Governmental Entity to change the highway or road system in the vicinity of
the Project or Project Site,


                                       19



or to restrict or change access from any such highway or road to the Project or
Project Site, in either case, in any manner that would be likely to adversely
affect the decision of a Participant to enter into the Transaction.

               (ff) Notices. To the Lessee's Actual Knowledge, there are no
outstanding written notices from any Governmental Entity or by any insurance
company which currently issues any insurance to the Lessee or by any board of
fire underwriters or other body exercising similar functions that any repairs or
work or capital improvements are required to be done at or with respect to the
Project or the Project Site provided that if such repairs or other work or
improvements referred to in such notices are required they would not result in
one or Claims against or being incurred by the Lessee or against or in respect
of the Project, which when added to all other Total Aggregate Claims, would
result in Total Aggregate Claims in excess of $1,500,000.

               (gg) Business, Debt, Contracts, Etc. The Lessee is not a party to
or bound by any contract other than (a) the Operative Documents to which it is a
party, and the Puna Geothermal Venture partnership agreement and (b) any other
contract to which it is a party that, if disclosed to the Participants, would
not be likely to affect the decision of a Participant to enter into the
Transaction.

               (hh) Intellectual Property. To the Lessee's Actual Knowledge, the
Lessee owns, possesses or can acquire on reasonable terms, adequate trademarks,
trade names and other rights to inventions, know-how, patents, copyrights,
confidential information and other intellectual property necessary to operate
the Project as contemplated by the Project Lease, and have not received any
notice of infringement of or conflict with asserted rights of others with
respect to any such intellectual property rights provided that if such a failure
exists, it would not result in one or more Claims against or being incurred by
the Lessee or against or in respect of the Project which when added to all other
Total Aggregate Claims, would result in Total Aggregate Claims in excess of
$1,500,000.

               (ii) No Fraudulent Conveyance. Lessee is consummating the
transactions contemplated hereby, including transfer of certain assets and
properties to the Owner Lessor, in good faith and without any intent to defraud

          the meaning of Part V of the QPAM Exemption), no employee benefit


                                       27

          maintained by the same employer or by an affiliate (within the meaning
          of Section V(c)(1) of the QPAM Exemption) of such employer or by the

          meaning of Section IV of PTE 96-23 (the "INHAM Exemption")) managed by
          an "in-house asset manager" or "INHAM" (within the meaning of Part IV
          of the INHAM exemption), the conditions of Part I(a), (g) and (h) of
          the INHAM Exemption are satisfied, neither the INHAM nor a person
          controlling or controlled by the INHAM (applying the definition of

     Section 5.34. Withdrawals from Well Maintenance Reserve Account. At any
time prior to a withdrawal from the Well Maintenance Reserve Account in excess
of $200,000 or, if the aggregate withdrawals from such account in the calendar

specifying the nature of the Well Maintenance Costs proposed to be incurred, the
need therefor and the effect of the proposed work on the Project and its
associated geothermal wells, (ii) a detailed budget specifying by line item each
major category of expenditures, together with information supporting the overall
amount of the budget, and (iii) a schedule of work to be performed, including
estimated commencement and completion dates as well as estimated dates for
completion of major milestones (the "Work Plan"). If the Equity Investor does
not object to any aspect of the Work Plan within 14 days of receipt thereof (the
"14 Day Period"), it will be deemed to have accepted such Work Plan at the end
of such 14 Day Period; provided, however, that if within the 14 Day Period, the
Equity Investor shall reasonably request additional information, such 14 Day
Period shall be extended to add an additional 7 days to such 14 Day Period
beginning on the day that the Equity Investor shall have been provided with the
additional information requested by it (the "Additional Period"). If, however,
the Equity Investor objects to such Work Plan within the 14 Day Period or the
Additional Period, the Equity Investor shall have the option of retaining
GeothermEx, Inc. to review such Work Plan and who will act in accordance with
the standards and procedures specified in the penultimate sentence of this
Section 5.34 and submit changes, if any to such Work Plan within 5 Business
Days; provided, however, that (a) if GeothermEx, Inc. is no longer in existence
or is unable or unwilling to prepare such analysis or give such opinion, then
the Lessee and the Equity Investor shall attempt in good faith to agree upon
another reputable, recognized and independent resource consultant (GeothermEx
Inc. or such other independent resource consultant, the "Geothermal Consultant")
to prepare such analysis and give such opinion (pursuant to an engagement letter
that meets the requirements set forth below), and if such parties are


                                       47



unable to so agree within thirty (30) days, then such other consultant shall be
selected by the procedure set forth in the immediately succeeding sentence of
this Section 5.34, (b) the costs of preparing such analysis shall be paid by
Lessee, and (c) the opinion of Geothermal Consultant shall in any case be
binding and conclusive on the parties. The procedure for selecting such other
Geothermal Consultant shall be as follows: (1) each party shall designate a
reputable, recognized and independent resource consultant who is not affiliated
with the other party, (2) such consultants shall together designate a third
reputable, recognized, and independent resource consultant who is not affiliated
with any party, (3) such third consultant shall prepare such analysis and give
such opinion, and (4) the Lessee shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of
all the consultants. If the Geothermal Consultant determines that changes are
necessary, the Lessee shall incorporate such changes into a revised Work Plan
(the "Revised Work Plan") which the Geothermal Consultant shall approve within
three Business Days. After the Lessee has completed the work, it shall certify
the same to the Equity Investor and Geothermal Consultant. If the work was not
completed in accordance in all material respects with the Work Plan or, if a
Revised Work Plan has been implemented, in accordance with the Revised Work Plan
as determined by the Geothermal Consultant (acting in accordance with the
standards and procedures specified in the penultimate sentence of this Section
5.34), (it being understood that any cost overruns shall not be considered
deviations from the Work Plan or the Revised Work Plan and may be funded from
either a contribution by ONI or by withdrawals from the Well Maintenance Reserve
Account, provided that any such withdrawals in respect of cost overruns shall be
replenished from funds in the Distribution Account) then the amount of Well
Reserve Contributions to be made by the Lessee for the immediately succeeding
calendar year shall be increased by the difference between (x) the amount
actually withdrawn from the Well Maintenance Reserve Account in connection with
such work (without taking into account any cost overruns, which shall be
addressed as set forth above) and (y) the amount that Geothermal Consultant
believed should have been spent in connection with such work in accordance with
the Work Plan or, if implemented, Revised Work Plan, as the case may be (the
"Section 5.34 Differential"). In connection with resolving any dispute pursuant
to this Section, the Geothermal Consultant shall act pursuant to an engagement
letter to which (a) the Lessee and the Equity Investor are parties and (b) the
Geothermal Consultant is held harmless by the parties to the engagement letter
for its conclusions reached pursuant thereto, subject to exceptions for gross
negligence and willful misconduct, and that requires the Geothermal Consultant
to act objectively, with no bias toward any party. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary set forth in the foregoing, the parties agree and acknowledge that
the Lessee shall have the right to (i) withdraw funds from the Well Maintenance
Reserve Account in accordance with Section 5.4 of the Depositary Agreement
without regard to the provisions of this Section 5.34 and (ii) make any
expenditures necessary in connection with addressing any safety or regulatory
issues that


                                       48



require immediate action. The Lessee and the Equity Investor shall promptly
provide the Indenture Trustee with a copy of each document delivered under this
Section 5.34.

the LLC Agreement.

waive or release the transferring Equity Investor or its Equity Investor
Guarantor from any liability existing immediately prior to or occurring
simultaneously with such transfer, including its obligations referenced in
paragraph (f) above.

     Section 7.2. Equity Investor's Liens. The Equity Investor covenants that it
will not directly or indirectly create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any
Equity Investor's Lien and the Equity Investor shall promptly notify the Lessee
and the Indenture Trustee of the imposition of any such Lien of which the Equity
Investor has Actual Knowledge and shall promptly, at its own expense, take such
action as may be necessary to duly discharge such Equity Investor's Lien.

     Section 7.3. Amendments or Revocation of LLC Agreement. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in the LLC Agreement, the Equity Investor
covenants that it will not (a) amend, supplement, or otherwise modify (i) any

or (ii) Sections 1, 2.5, 5, 8, 9, 10, 12.1, 13, 14, 15.2 and 15.3 of the LLC
Agreement (in each case, except for amendments required by the Operative
Documents or by Applicable Laws) without the prior written consent of (x) so
long as the Lease has not terminated or expired and no Lease Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, the Lessee, and (y) so long as the Lien of the
Indenture has not been terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture Trustee,
or (b) rescind, or otherwise waive compliance with or terminate the LLC
Agreement without the prior written consent of (x) so long as the Lease has not
terminated or expired and no Lease Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, the Lessee, and (y) so long as the Lien of the Indenture has not
been terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture Trustee.

     Section 7.4. Bankruptcy Filings. The Equity Investor agrees that it will
not file a petition, or join in the filing of a petition, seeking

other Operative Document.

     Section 7.6. Appointment of Successor Owner Manager. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Agreement, a successor Owner Manager shall not be
appointed by the Equity Investor without the consent of the Lessee, so long as
no Lease Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed) and, so long as the Lien of the Indenture has
not been terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture Trustee, unless (a) such
successor Owner Manager meets the requirements of the LLC Agreement and has a
combined capital and surplus or tangible net worth of at least $150,000,000, and
(b) the Lessee (so long as no Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing and no dispossessory remedies are being exercised), and the Indenture
Trustee, so long as the Lien of the Indenture shall not have been terminated and
fully discharged, shall have received at the expense of the Equity Investor (i)
an opinion or opinions of counsel, such counsel and such opinion to be
reasonably acceptable to such parties, to the effect that no regulatory consents
or approvals are required, or (ii) such other evidence thereof as is reasonably
satisfactory to the Lessee, so long as no Lease Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, and, so long as the Lien of the Indenture shall not have been
terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture Trustee; provided, however, that

become incapable of acting as Owner Manager or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or
insolvent or a receiver of the Owner Manager or its properties shall be
appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Owner
Manager or its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation,
conservation or liquidation, the opinion required by clause (c) shall be at the
expense of the Lessee.

SECTION 8. COVENANTS OF THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE AND NOTEHOLDERS

               (a) The Indenture Trustee will not directly or indirectly create,
incur, assume or suffer to exist any Indenture Trustee's Lien, and will promptly
notify the Equity Investor, the Owner Lessor, the Noteholders and the Lessee of
the imposition of any such Lien of which it has Actual Knowledge and shall
promptly, at its own expense, take such action as may be necessary to duly
discharge such Indenture Trustee's Lien.

               (b) The Indenture Trustee shall, at the written request and
expense of the Lessee, execute and deliver to the Lessee and cooperate with the
Lessee to cause to be filed, if not already filed, such financing statements or
other documents and such continuation statements or other documents with respect
to financing statements or other documents previously filed relating to the Lien

financing statements caused to be filed by it.

               (c) Each Noteholder hereby severally covenants and agrees that in

                    (ix) the imposition of any Lien other than, with respect to

                    (x) any violation by, or liability relating to, the Lessee

                    (xi) responding with respect to the Transaction to any
     subpoenas, document requests or other inquiries of Government Authorities
     relating to any party to the Transaction other than such Indemnitee;

                    (xii) the non-performance or breach by the Lessee or the
     Pledgor of any obligation contained in this Agreement or any other
     Operative Document


                                       57



     or the falsity or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of the

                    (xiii) the continuing fees (if any) and expenses of the

     counsel, accountants and other professional persons) arising out of their
     acceptance of the Operative Documents and the discharge of their respective

                    (xiv) in any other way relating to the Project, the Project
     Site or the Project Document Interest.

               (b) Claims Excluded. Any Claim, to the extent (but only to the
extent) (A) attributable to, (B) arising as a result of or (C) such Claim would
not have occurred but for, any of the following, is excluded from the Lessee's
agreement to indemnify the appropriate Indemnitee under this Section 9.1:

                    (i) acts, omissions or events (including violation of or
     change in law or any change in the Environmental Condition of the Project
     or the Project Site or any portion or Component thereof, or the use,
     storage, transportation, treatment or manufacture of any Hazardous Material
     in, at, under or from the Project or the Project Site) occurring after
     expiration or early termination of the Project Lease and, where required by
     the Project Lease, Sublease of Power Plant Sublease or the Sub-Grant of
     Delivery System Grant of Easements, surrender to the Owner Lessor or its
     successor of the Lessee's interest in the Project in compliance with the
     provisions of the Project Lease and of the Lessee's subleasehold interest
     in the Project Site in accordance with the provisions of the Sublease of
     Power Plant Sublease and the Sub-Grant of Delivery System Grant of
     Easements, as the case may be;

                    (ii) with respect to a particular Indemnitee and Related
     Parties, any offer, sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition
     (voluntary or involuntary) by or on behalf of (A) in the case of the Equity
     Investor, the Equity Investor of any of its interest in the Member
     Interest, (B) in the case of the Owner Lessor, if such action is taken at
     the written direction of the Equity Investor, the Equity Investor and
     Related Parties, the Owner Lessor of all or any of its interest in the
     Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest, or (C) in the case of the Indenture
     Trustee or the Noteholders of any of their respective interests in the
     Senior Notes, unless in any of the foregoing cases such transfer is
     required by the terms of the Operative Documents or occurs in connection
     with the exercise of remedies following the


                                       58



     occurrence and continuance of a Lease Event of Default and no dispossessory
     remedies are being exercised;

                    (iii) in the case of any Indemnitee, fraud, gross negligence
     or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or a Related Party of the
     Indemnitee seeking indemnification;

                    (iv) [Intentionally Omitted];

                    (v) with respect to any Indemnitee, the breach of any
     agreement, covenant, representation or warranty of, such Indemnitee (or a
     Related Party of such Indemnitee) seeking indemnification set forth in the
     Operative Documents unless attributable to a breach by the Lessee of its
     obligations under the Operative Documents;

                    (vi) any obligation or liability expressly borne, assumed or
     to be paid in any Operative Document by the Indemnitee (or a Related Party
     of such Indemnitee) seeking indemnification;

                    (vii) with respect to any Indemnitee (other than the
     Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders), any Claim constituting or arising
     from an Owner Lessor's Lien created by or through such Indemnitee or to a
     Related Party of such Indemnitee (excluding for the purpose of this
     paragraph the liens created pursuant to the Indenture);

                    (viii) except to make payments on an After-Tax Basis, any
     Claim that is a Tax, or is a cost of contesting a Tax imposed on such
     Indemnitee or an Affiliate thereof, whether or not the Lessee is required
     to indemnify therefor under Section 9.2 or the Tax Indemnity Agreement;

                    (ix) any failure by the Owner Manager to distribute in
     accordance with the LLC Agreement any amounts received and distributable
     thereunder;

                    (x) any amendment, supplement, modification or waiver to a
     Financing Document not requested by the Lessee or not required by any
     Financing Document or by Applicable Law, except during and executed in
     connection with a Lease Event of Default;

                    (xi) any Claim that constitutes principal and/or interest on
     the Senior Notes; and


                                       59



                    (xii) with respect to the Owner Lessor, the Owner Manager
     and the Equity Investor only, any Claim resulting from any Indenture Event
     of Default not caused by or attributable to a Lease Event of Default;

provided that the terms "omission," "negligence," "gross negligence" and
"willful misconduct," when applied with respect to the Owner Manager, the Trust
Company, the Equity Investor, the Owner Lessor, the Indenture Trustee, the
Noteholders or any Affiliate of any thereof, shall not include any liability
imputed as a matter of law to such Indemnitee solely by reason of any such
entity's interest in the Project, the Project Site or the Geothermal Resource or
the Project Document Interest or any such Indemnitee's failure to act in respect
of matters which are or were the obligation of the Lessee under this Agreement
or any other Operative Document.

               (c) Insured Claims. Subject to the provisions of Section 9.1(e),
in the case of any Claim indemnified by the Lessee hereunder which is covered by
a policy of insurance maintained by the Lessee, each Indemnitee agrees, unless
it and each other Indemnitee shall waive its rights to indemnification (for
itself and each Related Party thereto) in a manner reasonably acceptable to the
Lessee, to cooperate, at the sole cost and expense of the Lessee, with insurers
in exercise of their rights to investigate, defend or compromise such Claim.

               (d) After-Tax Basis. The Lessee agrees that any payment or
indemnity pursuant to this Section 9.1 in respect of any Claim shall be made on
an After-Tax Basis to the Indemnitees.

               (e) Claims Procedure. Each Indemnitee shall promptly after such
Indemnitee shall have Actual Knowledge thereof notify the Lessee of any Claim as
to which indemnification is sought; provided, that the failure so to notify the
Lessee shall not reduce or affect the Lessee's liability which it may have to
such Indemnitee under this Section 9.1, and no payment hereunder by the Lessee
to an Indemnitee shall be deemed to constitute a waiver or release of any right
or remedy that the Lessee may have against any such Indemnitee for actual
damages resulting directly from such failure or delay of such Indemnitee to give
the Lessee such notice. Any amount payable to any Indemnitee pursuant to this
Section 9.1 and not being contested by the Lessee pursuant to this Section
9.1(e) shall be paid within thirty (30) days after receipt of such written
demand therefor from such Indemnitee, accompanied by a certificate of such
Indemnitee stating in reasonable detail the basis for the indemnification
thereby sought and (if such Indemnitee is not a party hereto) an agreement to be
bound by the terms of this Section 9 as if such Indemnitee were such a party.
The foregoing shall not, however, constitute an obligation to disclose
confidential information of any kind without the execution of an appropriate
confidentiality agreement. Promptly after the Lessee receives notification of
such Claim accompanied by a written statement describing in reasonable detail
the


                                       60



Claims which are the subject of and basis for such indemnity and the computation
of the amount so payable, the Lessee shall, without affecting its obligations
hereunder, notify such Indemnitee whether it intends to pay, object to,
compromise or defend any matter involving the asserted liability of such
Indemnitee. Any such contest shall be initiated within 30 days after the giving
of such notice. The Lessee shall have the right to investigate and so long as no
Significant Lease Default or Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Lessee shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to defend,
or, so long as the Lessee has acknowledged in writing its obligation to
indemnify such Indemnitee with respect thereto, compromise any Claim for which
indemnification is sought under this Section 9.1; provided that no such defense
or compromise (i) is reasonably likely to involve any material danger of
foreclosure, sale, forfeiture or loss of, or imposition of a Lien on any part of
the Project, the Project Site, the Project Document Interest, the Lessor Estate
or the impairment of the Project or (ii) could result in any criminal liability
being incurred by, or could reasonably be expected to have any material adverse
effect on, such Indemnitee; provided, further, that no Claim shall be
compromised by the Lessee on a basis that admits any criminal violation or gross
negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Indemnitee without the
express written consent of such Indemnitee (which consent may be withheld by the
Indemnitee in its sole discretion); and provided, further, that to the extent
that other Claims unrelated to the transactions contemplated by the Operative
Documents are part of the same proceeding involving such Claim, the Lessee may
assume responsibility for the contest or compromise of such Claim only if the
same may be and is severed from such other Claims (and each Indemnitee agrees to
use reasonable efforts to obtain such a severance). If the Lessee elects,
subject to the foregoing, to compromise or defend any such asserted liability,
it may do so at its own expense and by counsel selected by it and reasonably
satisfactory to such Indemnitee. Upon the Lessee's election to compromise or
defend such asserted liability and notification to such Indemnitee of its intent
to do so, such Indemnitee shall cooperate at the Lessee's expense with all
reasonable requests of the Lessee in connection therewith and will provide the
Lessee with all information not within the control of the Lessee as is
reasonably available to such Indemnitee which the Lessee may reasonably request;
provided, however, that such Indemnitee shall not, unless otherwise required by
Applicable Law, be obligated to disclose to the Lessee or any other Person, or
permit the Lessee or any other Person to examine (i) any income tax returns of
such Indemnitee or (ii) any confidential information or pricing information not
generally accessible by the public possessed by such Indemnitee (and, in the
event that any such information is made available, the Lessee shall treat such
information as confidential and shall take all actions reasonably requested by
such Indemnitee for purposes of obtaining a stipulation from all parties to the
related proceeding providing for the confidential treatment of such information
from all such parties). Where the Lessee, or the insurers under a policy of
insurance maintained by the Lessee, undertake the defense of such Indemnitee
with respect to a Claim (with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such


                                       61



Indemnitee in the case of the Lessee or its Affiliates and without reservation
of rights against such Indemnitee), no additional legal fees or expenses of such
Indemnitee in connection with the defense of such Claim shall be indemnified
hereunder unless such fees or expenses were incurred at the request of the
Lessee or such insurers. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnitee may
participate at its own expense in any judicial proceeding controlled by the
Lessee pursuant to the preceding provisions, but only to the extent that such
party's participation does not in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the
Lessee interfere with such control; provided, however, that such party's
participation does not constitute a waiver of the indemnification provided in
this Section 9.1; provided further, that if and to the extent that (i) such
Indemnitee is advised by counsel in writing that an actual conflict of interest
exists where it is advisable for such Indemnitee to be represented by separate
counsel or (ii) there is a material risk that such Indemnitee may be indicted or
otherwise charged in a criminal complaint and such Indemnitee informs the Lessee
that such Indemnitee desires to be represented by separate counsel, such
Indemnitee shall have the right to control its own defense of such Claim and the
reasonable fees and expenses of such defense (including the reasonable fees and
expenses of such separate counsel) shall be borne by the Lessee. No Indemnitee
shall enter into any settlement or other compromise with respect to any Claim
without the prior written consent of the Lessee unless (i) the Indemnitee waives
its rights to indemnification hereunder or (ii) the Lessee has not acknowledged
its indemnity obligation with respect thereto and there is a significant risk
that a default judgment will be entered against such Indemnitee. Nothing
contained in this Section 9.1(e) shall be deemed to require an Indemnitee to
contest any Claim or to assume responsibility for or control of any judicial
proceeding with respect thereto. The Lessee shall pay all amounts determined to
be payable after such contest is completed within 15 days after the completion
of such contest.

               (f) Subrogation. To the extent that a Claim indemnified by the
Lessee under this Section 9.1 is in fact paid in full by the Lessee or an
insurer under an insurance policy maintained by the Lessee, the Lessee or such
insurer shall be subrogated to the rights and remedies of the Indemnitee on
whose behalf such Claim was paid to the extent of such payment (other than
rights of such Indemnitee under insurance policies maintained at its own expense
or rights of the Owner Manager under the LLC Agreement) with respect to the
transaction or event giving rise to such Claim. Should an Indemnitee receive any
refund, in whole or in part, with respect to any Claim paid by the Lessee
hereunder, it shall promptly pay over to the Lessee the lesser of (i) the amount
refunded reduced by the amount of any Tax incurred by reason of the receipt or
accrual of such refund and increased by the amount of any Tax saved as a result
of the payment under this Section 9.1(f) or (ii) the amount the Lessee or any of
its insurers has paid in respect of such Claim (including any Tax gross up
amount).


                                       62



               (g) Minimize Claims. The Equity Investor, the Owner Lessor, the
Owner Manager, and each of the other Transaction Parties will, to the extent
within their control, use their respective reasonable efforts to minimize Claims
relating to them, respectively, and indemnifiable by the Lessee under this
Section 9.1, including by complying with reasonable requests by the Lessee to do
or to refrain from doing any act if such compliance is of a purely ministerial
nature or, in the good faith opinion of the Equity Investor, the Owner Lessor,
the Owner Manager, or such other Transaction Party, as the case may be,
otherwise has no material adverse impact on the Equity Investor, the Owner
Lessor, the Owner Manager, or such Transaction Party, as the case may be, or any
Affiliate of any thereof or on the business or operations of any of the
foregoing.

     Section 9.2. General Tax Indemnity.

               (a) Indemnity. Except as provided in Section 9.2(b), the Lessee
agrees to indemnify on an After-Tax Basis each of the Indemnitees and to hold
each Indemnitee harmless from and defend each Indemnitee against all Taxes
imposed upon or with respect to or borne by or asserted against any Indemnitee,
the Lessee, the Project or the Project Site or any portion or Component or
Modification thereof or any interest therein, or upon any Operative Document or
interest therein, or otherwise arising out of, in connection with or relating
to, any of the following:

                    (i) the Project, the Project Site, the Lessor Estate or any
     Collateral or any part thereof or interest therein;

                    (ii) the construction, financing, refinancing, acquisition,
     operation, warranty, ownership, use, possession, maintenance, repair,
     lease, condition, alteration, modification, restoration, refurbishing,
     return, purchase, sale or other disposition, insuring, sublease, or other
     use or non-use of the Project or the Project Site, or any portion or
     Component or Modification thereof or any interest therein;

                    (iii) the conduct of the business or affairs of the Lessee
     or any other operator at or in connection with the Project or the Project
     Site;

                    (iv) the manufacture, design, purchase, acceptance,
     rejection, delivery or condition of, or improvement of or to the Project or
     the Project Site, or any portion or Component thereof or Modification
     thereto, or any interest therein;

                    (v) the Head Lease or the Project Lease, the Sublease of
     Power Plant Sublease or the Sub-Sublease of Power Plant Sublease or any
     other Operative Document, the execution or delivery thereof, or the
     performance or enforcement of any terms thereof or any Amendment thereto;


                                       63



                    (vi) the payment of Periodic Lease Rent, Renewal Lease Rent,
     Supplemental Lease Rent or any other payment under the Project Lease, the
     Sublease of Power Plant Sublease or the Sub-Sublease of Power Plant
     Sublease; or

                    (vii) otherwise in connection with the transactions
     contemplated by the Operative Documents or any document or instrument in
     connection with the Project related to any Operative Document or the
     exercise of rights or remedies under any Operative Document or the
     enforcement of any Operative Document.

               (b) Excluded Taxes. The indemnity provided for in Section 9.2(a)
shall not extend to any Tax that is attributable to or arises as a result of or
is described in any of the following ( "Excluded Taxes"):

                    (i) Taxes imposed by the United States federal government
     (including income and withholding taxes and any future value added,
     consumption or other Taxes resulting from federal legislation subsequent to
     the Closing Date), other than Taxes imposed under ERISA or under section
     4975 of the Code;

                    (ii) Taxes imposed by any United States state or local

     measured by gross or net income or gross or net receipts or capital or net
     worth, including Taxes in the nature of capital gain, accumulated earnings,
     personal holding company, excess profits, succession or estate, minimum,
     alternative minimum, preference, franchise (including those based on
     capital or net worth, loans or other investments), conduct of business and
     other similar taxes (other than Taxes that are, or are in the nature of,
     sales, use, stamp, license, ad valorem, value added, rental or property
     Taxes, including Hawaii General Excise Taxes), including Hawaii Corporate
     Income and Franchise Taxes;

                    (iii) Taxes other than Taxes imposed by the United States or
     any United States state or local government or the District of Columbia or
     any possession of the United States or any taxing authority of or in any
     thereof ("U.S. Taxes") that would not have been imposed but for the
     activities of an Indemnitee or any Affiliate thereof in such jurisdiction
     unrelated to the transactions contemplated by the Operative Documents or
     any document or instrument related thereto;


                                       64



                    (iv) Taxes other than U.S. Taxes to the extent such non-U.S.
     Taxes are a result of a nexus between the taxing jurisdiction and the
     Indemnitee or an Affiliate that is not attributable to the transactions
     contemplated by the Operative Documents;

                    (v) Taxes attributable to any period after the expiration or
     sooner termination of the Project Lease and, if required, surrender of the
     Project to the Owner Lessor or its successor and, as to Taxes in respect of
     the payment of Rent, the payment of all Rent (or, in the case of the
     Indenture Trustee, after the repayment of the Senior Notes and all other
     amounts due and owing the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders) other
     than, in either case, during the exercise of remedies in connection with a
     Lease Event of Default;

                    (vi) Taxes imposed on an Indemnitee attributable to or that
     would not have occurred but for the gross negligence or willful misconduct
     of such Indemnitee or any Affiliate thereof;

                    (vii) Taxes imposed on an Indemnitee attributable to or that
     would not have occurred but for (A) any act or omission of such Indemnitee
     or any Affiliate thereof that is expressly prohibited (or, in the case of a
     failure to act, required to be performed) by the Operative Documents or any
     document or instrument related thereto, or (B) a breach by such Indemnitee
     (or any Affiliate thereof) of, or the inaccuracy of any of its
     representations, warranties or covenants under, any Operative Document,
     unless, in each case, attributable to the breach by the Lessee or any
     Affiliate thereof of its obligations under a Operative Document;

                    (viii) Taxes attributable to or that would not have occurred
     but for any voluntary transfer by the Indemnitee or any Affiliate thereof
     (or, in the case of the Equity Investor, by the Owner Lessor at the written
     direction of the Equity Investor) other than a transfer resulting from an
     exercise by the Lessee of its rights under the Operative Documents; or any
     involuntary transfer resulting from a bankruptcy of such Indemnitee or any
     Affiliate thereof or a foreclosure by a creditor of such Indemnitee or
     Affiliate thereof which bankruptcy or foreclosure is not attributable to
     the breach by the Lessee or any Affiliate thereof of its obligations under
     an Operative Document;

                    (ix) in the case of an Indemnitee that is the Equity
     Investor or an Affiliate thereof, Taxes arising in connection with Equity
     Investor's Liens; or in the case of an Indemnitee that is the Owner Lessor
     or an Affiliate thereof, Taxes arising in connection with Owner Lessor's
     Liens;


                                       65



                    (x) Hawaii General Excise Taxes imposed on an Indemnitee
     that is a Noteholder or the Indenture Trustee except to the extent such
     Taxes are imposed as the result of a change in Applicable Law after the
     Closing Date;

                    (xi) Taxes properly included in Transaction Costs or Head
     Lease Rent;

                    (xii) Taxes imposed on, based on, or measured by any
     compensation that any Owner Lessor, Indenture Trustee, Depositary Bank or
     Paying Agent receives for its services;

                    (xiii) Taxes imposed on any Indemnitee attributable to or
     that would not have occurred but for the Indemnitee's or any Affiliate's
     being treated as other than a U.S. Person (as defined in section
     7701(a)(30) of the Code);

                    (xiv) Taxes attributable to or that would not have occurred
     but for the failure of an Indemnitee or an Affiliate thereof to comply on a
     timely basis with certification, information, documentation, reporting or
     other similar requirements concerning taxation, nationality, residence,
     identity or connection with the jurisdiction or other similar matters,
     provided, that the foregoing exclusion shall only apply if such Indemnitee
     or Affiliate is eligible to comply with such requirement and shall have
     been given timely written notice of such requirement by the Lessee;

                    (xv) Taxes imposed on an Indemnitee to the extent that the
     Indemnitee's or an Affiliate's breach of its contest obligations under
     Section 9.2(d) precludes the Lessee's ability to contest such Taxes,
     provided that the Lessee shall have the right to bring suit for damages
     resulting from any such breach;

                    (xvi) Taxes imposed on any Indemnitee attributable to or
     that would not have occurred but for an Amendment to any Operative Document
     which was not requested by the Lessee unless such Amendment (A) was
     required by Applicable Law or the Operative Documents, (B) is necessary or
     appropriate to conform with any Amendment to any Operative Document
     requested by the Lessee in writing or (C) is made while a Lease Event of
     Default shall have occurred and is continuing;

                    (xvii) Taxes imposed under section 4975 of the Code or under
     ERISA or any comparable law of any Governmental Entity resulting from (A) a
     breach by such Indemnitee of any representation, warranty or covenant made


                                       66



     hereunder or (B) a violation of Sections 406(b) of ERISA or Section
     4975(c)(1)(E) or (F) of the Code by such Indemnitee; and

                    (xviii) Penalties, additions to Tax or interest imposed on
     an Indemnitee attributable to such Indemnitee's or any Affiliate's failure
     to comply with any requirements imposed on it under section 6011, 6111 or
     6112 of the Code or the Treasury Regulations thereunder, unless such
     failure results from the Lessee's breach of Section 9.2(f)(ii).

          Notwithstanding the foregoing exclusions in this Section 9.2(b), no
exclusions shall apply to the determination of amounts needed to make a payment
on an After-Tax Basis.

               (c) Payment.

                    (i) No Tax that is being contested in good faith in an
     appropriate proceeding shall be payable while such proceeding is pending or
     subject to any appeal pending a final judgment, subject to the Equity
     Investor's right to obtain a Tax Advance in accordance with Section
     9.2(d)(iii)(4).

                    (ii) So long as no Lease Event of Default and, in the case
     of the Noteholders, no Indenture Event of Default, is continuing, each
     Indemnitee will pay to the Lessee, without duplication, up to the amount of
     the indemnity paid by the Lessee, (1) any refund of amounts with respect to
     which the Lessee has made a general tax indemnity payment, and (2) any
     current tax benefit realized by the Indemnitee in connection with the
     payment under clause (1) and this clause (2) (net of any current Taxes
     payable by the Indemnitee in respect of such refund). To the extent the
     aggregate amount computed pursuant to clauses (1) and (2) is in excess of
     the indemnity previously paid by the Lessee, such excess shall be used as
     an offset against future general tax indemnity payments, if any, owed by
     the Lessee to the Indemnitee. Any subsequent loss of any such refund or tax
     benefit shall be an indemnified Tax hereunder without regard to the
     exclusions in Section 9.2(b). In calculating tax losses and benefits, each
     Indemnitee shall be presumed to be subject to federal, state and local
     income tax at the highest marginal tax brackets applicable to the
     Indemnitee, taking into account the deductibility of state and local taxes
     for federal income tax purposes and the inclusion, if any, for federal
     income tax purposes, of the refund referred to in clause (1) above.

                    (iii) If, in connection with a refund or credit of all or
     part of any Taxes paid, reimbursed or advanced by the Lessee pursuant to
     this Section 9.2, an Indemnitee receives an amount representing interest on
     such refund or credit (or would have received such an amount but for offset
     by unrelated matters), the


                                       67



     Indemnitee promptly shall pay to the Lessee the amount of such interest
     that shall be fairly attributable to such Taxes paid, reimbursed or
     advanced by the Lessee (net of Taxes payable in respect of the receipt or
     accrual of such interest to the extent the payment of such interest by the
     Indemnitee to the Lessee is not deductible for purposes of such Tax).

                    (iv) Each payment required to be made by the Lessee to an
     Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 9.2 shall be paid either (1) when due
     directly to the applicable taxing authority, by the Lessee if it is
     permitted to do so, or (2) where direct payment is not permitted and with
     respect to gross up amounts, in immediately available funds to such
     Indemnitee by the later of (A) 30 days following the Lessee's receipt of
     the Indemnitee's written demand for the payment (which demand shall be
     accompanied by a statement of the Indemnitee describing in reasonable
     detail the Taxes for which the Indemnitee is demanding indemnity and the
     computation of such Taxes), (B) in the case of amounts which are being
     contested pursuant to Section 9.2(d), at the time and in accordance with a
     final determination of such contest or (C) in the case of any indemnity
     demand for which the Lessee has requested review and determination pursuant
     to Section 9.2(c)(v), the completion of such review and determination;
     provided, however, in no event later than the date which is two Business
     Days prior to the date on which such Taxes are required to be paid to the
     applicable taxing authority (but subject to the Lessee's option under
     Section 9.2(d)(iii)(4) hereof).

                    (v) The Lessee may request in writing that an independent
     public accounting firm (which, in the case of the Noteholders, shall be the
     regular outside auditing firm used by each Noteholder) selected by the
     Indemnitee and reasonably acceptable to the Lessee review and determine the
     amount of any indemnity payment by the Lessee to the Indemnitee pursuant to
     this Section 9.2 (including any tax savings of the Equity Investor
     associated with any indemnity obligation pursuant to this Section 9.2) or
     any payment by an Indemnitee to the Lessee pursuant to Section 9.2(c)(ii).
     The Lessee and the Indemnitee shall cooperate with such accounting firm and
     supply it with all information (other than income tax returns) reasonably
     necessary for the accounting firm to conduct such review and determination,
     provided that such accounting firm shall agree in writing in a manner
     satisfactory to the Indemnitee to maintain the confidentiality of such
     information. The fees and disbursements of such accounting firm will be
     paid by the Lessee; provided that such fees and disbursements will be paid
     by the Indemnitee if the verification results in an adjustment in the
     Lessee's favor of five percent or more of the present value of indemnity
     payment or payments computed by the Indemnitee (determined using the
     Discount Rate). In the event such accounting firm determines that such
     computations are incorrect, then such firm shall determine what it believes
     to be the correct computations. The computations


                                       68



     of the accounting firm shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the
     Lessee and the Indemnitee (absent manifest error). The parties hereto agree
     that the accounting firm's sole responsibility shall be to verify the
     computation of any payment pursuant to this Section 9.2(c) and that matters
     of interpretation of this Participation Agreement or any other Operative
     Document or applicable law are not within the scope of the accounting
     firm's responsibility. Such accounting firm shall be requested to make its
     determination within 30 days.

                    (vi) If the Lessee has paid an indemnity to an Indemnitee
     pursuant to Section 9.1 or 9.2 (which payment shall include any Tax Advance
     to the extent applied toward such indemnity), or if the Lessee has paid to
     an Indemnitee an amount needed to make a payment on an After-Tax Basis, and
     such Indemnitee realizes (or would have realized had such Indemnitee had
     sufficient taxable income and tax liability) a reduction in U.S. federal,
     state or local income taxes (including any offset or refund) ("Tax
     Savings") that it would not have realized but for the relevant indemnified
     Claim or Taxes or payment on an After-Tax Basis, and such Tax Savings shall
     not previously have been taken into account in computing the amount of the
     indemnity or payment on an After-Tax Basis to be paid by the Lessee, such
     Indemnitee shall pay the Lessee (i) an amount equal to such Tax Savings and
     (ii) any tax benefit realized by the Indemnitee in connection with the
     payment under clause (i) and this clause (ii) net of any related tax
     detriment, provided no Lease Event of Default is continuing. In calculating
     the amount of any Tax Savings, and in calculating the amount of any tax
     benefit described in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence, each Indemnitee
     shall be presumed to be subject to federal, state and local income tax at
     the highest marginal tax brackets applicable to the Indemnitee, taking into
     account the deductibility of state and local taxes for federal income tax
     purposes. Anything in this Section 9.2(c)(vi) to the contrary
     notwithstanding, such Indemnitee shall not be required to make payments to
     the Lessee in an amount exceeding the indemnities or After-Tax Basis
     amounts previously paid by the Lessee to such Indemnitee.

          (d) Contest.

                    (i) If a written claim is made by any taxing authority
     against an Indemnitee or an Affiliate thereof for any Taxes with respect to
     which the Lessee may be liable for indemnity hereunder (a "Tax Claim"),
     such Indemnitee shall give the Lessee written notice of such Tax Claim as
     soon as practicable (and in all events within 30 days), and shall furnish
     the Lessee with copies of such Tax Claim and all other writings received
     from the taxing authority to the extent relating to such Tax Claim,
     provided that failure so to notify the Lessee shall not relieve the Lessee
     of any obligation to indemnify the Indemnitee hereunder except


                                       69



     to the extent that such failure precludes the Lessee's ability to conduct a
     contest of such Taxes (provided further, that the Lessee shall have the
     right to bring suit for damages resulting from any such failure). Subject
     to Section 9.2(d)(iii), the Lessee shall be entitled for a period of 30
     days from the receipt of such written notice (or such shorter period as is
     reasonably specified by the lndemnitee if any contest of the Taxes must be
     commenced prior to the expiration of thirty days) to request in writing
     that the Indemnitee contest the imposition of such Taxes at the Lessee's
     sole cost and expense and the Indemnitee shall not pay such Tax within such
     period. The Indemnitee shall not pay such Tax Claim until at least 30 days
     after providing the Lessee with such written notice unless (a) the
     Indemnitee is required to do so by law or regulation and (b) in the written
     notice described above, the Indemnitee has notified the Lessee of such
     requirement.

                    (ii) Subject to Section 9.2(d)(iii), the Lessee will be
     entitled to contest (acting through counsel selected by the Lessee and
     reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee), and control the contest of, any
     Tax Claim in good faith if (i) the contest of the Tax Claim may be pursued
     in the name of the Lessee; (ii) such Tax Claim must be pursued in the name
     of the Indemnitee but may be pursued independently from Tax Claims for
     which the Lessee is not obligated to indemnify the Indemnitee (with each
     Indemnitee agreeing to cooperate with the Lessee in its reasonable efforts
     to sever the contest of any indemnified Tax from the contest of the
     unindemnified Tax, so that the Lessee may control the contest of the
     indemnified Tax); or (iii) the Indemnitee requests in writing that the
     Lessee control such contest. In the case of all other Tax Claims, the
     Indemnitee shall contest the Tax Claim including seeking judicial review of
     any adverse administrative determination as requested by the Lessee, and
     appealing any adverse judicial determination except as otherwise provided
     in Section 9.2(d)(iii), and the Indemnitee shall control the contest of
     such Tax Claim in good faith (acting through counsel selected by the
     Indemnitee and reasonably satisfactory to the Lessee).

                    (iii) In the case of any contest pursuant to clause (i) or
     (ii) above, the Lessee shall use reasonable efforts to contest such claim
     in its own name and the Indemnitee shall use reasonable efforts to allow
     the Lessee to contest such claim in the name of the Lessee. In the case of
     a Tax Claim contested by the Lessee in the Lessee's name, the Lessee shall
     consult in good faith with, and keep reasonably informed, the Indemnitee
     and its counsel and shall provide the Indemnitee with copies of any
     documents, reports or claims issued by or sent to the relevant auditing
     agent or taxing authority, but the decisions regarding what actions to be
     taken shall be made by the Lessee in its sole judgment. In the case of all
     other Tax Claims, the Indemnitee shall contest the Tax Claim at the
     Lessee's sole cost and expense if the Lessee shall request the


                                       70



     Tax Claim be contested and the following rules shall apply to such contest:
     (1) the Indemnitee will control the contest (and all decisions with respect
     to such contest shall be made in its sole judgment exercised in good faith)
     acting through counsel selected by the Indemnitee and reasonably
     satisfactory to the Lessee; (2) at the Lessee's written request, if payment
     is made to the applicable tax authority, the Indemnitee shall use all
     reasonable efforts to obtain a refund thereof in appropriate administrative
     or judicial proceedings; (3) the Indemnitee conducting such contest shall
     consult with and keep reasonably informed the Lessee and its designated
     counsel with respect to such Tax Claim, shall provide the Lessee with
     copies of any documents, reports or claims issued by or sent to the
     relevant auditing agent or taxing authority to the extent relating to such
     Tax Claim (provided that the Indemnitee shall have the right to redact
     items relating to the privileged or unrelated tax matters of the Indemnitee
     or its Affiliates) and shall consult in good faith with the Lessee
     regarding any request (a) to resist payment of Taxes if practical and (b)
     not to pay such Tax except under protest if protest is necessary and
     proper, but the decision regarding what actions to be taken shall be made
     by the Indemnitee in its sole judgment.

                    (iv) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no contest with respect
     to a Tax Claim will be required or permitted pursuant to this Section 9.2
     and the Lessee shall be required to pay the applicable Taxes without
     contest unless:

                         (1) no Lease Event of Default has occurred and is
          continuing;

                         (2) there is no material risk of sale, forfeiture or
          loss of, or the creation of a material Lien (other than a Permitted
          Lien) on the Project or any portion or Component or Modification
          thereof unless the Lessee has posted and maintained a bond or other
          security (taking into account the amount of the Tax Claim and the
          likelihood of success of a contest) (which may include Adequate
          Reserves) reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Indemnitee or the
          Taxes shall have been paid as provided in clause (4) below;

                         (3) the contest of such Tax Claim does not involve a
          risk of imposition of any criminal liability on the Indemnitee;

                         (4) if such contest involves payment of the Tax, the
          Lessee either advances to the Indemnitee on an interest-free basis
          with no after-tax cost to such Indemnitee (a "Tax Advance") or pays,
          on an After-Tax Basis to such Indemnitee, the amount payable by the
          Lessee pursuant to Section 9.2(a) with respect to such Tax;


                                       71



                         (5) the Lessee shall have agreed to pay and shall pay
          to such Indemnitee on an After-Tax Basis all reasonable out-of-pocket
          costs and expenses that the Indemnitee may incur in connection with
          the contest of such Tax Claim (including all reasonable legal,
          accounting and investigatory fees and disbursements);

                         (6) the amount of the Taxes in controversy, taking into
          account the amount of all similar and logically related Taxes with
          respect to the transactions contemplated by the Operative Documents
          that could be raised in any other year (including any future year) not
          barred by the statute of limitations, exceeds $25,000;

                         (7) the contest would not require the Indemnitee to
          extend the statute of limitations in respect of other Taxes not
          indemnifiable by the Lessee hereunder;

                         (8) the Indemnitee has been provided at the Lessee's
          expense with an opinion of independent tax counsel selected by the
          Lessee and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee to the effect that
          there is a Reasonable Basis for contesting such Tax Claim;

                         (9) in the case of a judicial appeal, no appeal to the
          U.S. Supreme Court shall be required of the Indemnitee; and

                         (10) in the case of a contest conducted in the name of
          an Indemnitee, the Lessee shall have delivered to the Indemnitee a
          written acknowledgement of its liability under this Section 9.2 for
          such Taxes, provided however, that such acknowledgement shall not be
          required other than to the extent that the basis for the taxing
          authority's claim is or becomes reasonably clear; provided further,
          that Lessee shall not be bound by its acknowledgement of liability if
          the contest is resolved on the basis of a written opinion of the
          adjudicator that clearly indicates that the basis for the conclusion
          is one for which the Lessee has no liability under this Section 9.2
          with respect to such Tax.

               (e) Settlement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Section 9.2, the Indemnitee at any time may elect to decline
to take any action or any further action with respect to a Tax Claim and may in
its sole discretion settle any contest without the consent of the Lessee if such
Indemnitee (i) shall waive its right to indemnity under this Section 9.2 with
respect to such Tax Claim (and any Tax Claim with respect to any other taxable
year the contest of which is precluded by such waiver) and (ii) shall pay


                                       72



to the Lessee any amount previously paid or advanced by the Lessee pursuant to
Section 9.2 with respect to such Tax Claim other than amounts paid for expenses
of the contest.

               (f) Reports.

                    (i) If any report, statement or return is required to be
     filed by an Indemnitee with respect to any Tax that is subject to
     indemnification under this Section 9.2, the Lessee shall (1) promptly
     notify the Indemnitee (and the Indemnitee shall promptly notify the Lessee
     in writing if a Responsible Officer of such Indemnitee is actually aware of
     the filing, it being understood and agreed that no Indemnitee shall have
     any obligation to determine whether any filing is necessary) in writing of
     such requirement and (2) either (x) if permitted by Applicable Law, the
     Lessee shall, at the Lessee's sole cost and expense, prepare such report,
     statement or return and timely file such report, statement or return with
     the appropriate taxing authority (except for any such filing that an
     Indemnitee has notified the Lessee in writing that such Indemnitee intends
     to file) or (y) if the Lessee is not permitted by Applicable Law to file
     such report, statement or return or if so directed by the Indemnitee,
     prepare and furnish to such Indemnitee not later than 10 days prior to the
     date such report, statement or return is required to be filed a proposed
     form of such report, statement or return for filing by the Indemnitee;
     provided, however, that such Indemnitee shall have furnished the Lessee, at
     the Lessee's written request and expense, with such information, not within
     the control of the Lessee, as is in such Indemnitee's control or is
     reasonably available to such Indemnitee and is necessary for such filing.

                    (ii) Each Indemnitee and the Lessee will timely provide the
     other, at the Lessee's expense, with all information in its possession that
     the other party may reasonably require and request to satisfy its
     obligations under this Section 9.2(e) or otherwise to comply with any tax
     reporting or filing requirement in connection with the transactions
     contemplated by the Operative Documents.

               (g) Non-Parties. If an Indemnitee is not a party to this
Agreement, the Lessee may require such Indemnitee to agree in writing, in a form
reasonably acceptable to the Lessee, to the terms of this Section 9.2 prior to
making any payment to such Indemnitee under this Section.

SECTION 10. LESSEE'S RIGHT OF QUIET ENJOYMENT

          Each party to this Agreement acknowledges notice of the Project Lease,
the Power Plant Sublease and Sublease of Power Plant Sublease and expressly,
severally and as to its own actions only, agrees that, notwithstanding any
provision of any other


                                       73



Operative Document, so long as no Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing, it shall not interfere with or interrupt the quiet enjoyment of
the use, operation and possession by the Lessee of the Project in accordance
with the terms of the Project Lease.

SECTION 11. SUPPLEMENTAL FINANCING; OPTIONAL REFINANCING; ASSUMPTION OF NOTES

     Section 11.1. Financing Modifications. (a) Subject to the satisfaction of
the provisions of Section 8 of the Project Lease, upon the written request of
the Lessee delivered at least ninety (90) days prior to any proposed financing
of the cost of any Modification, the Owner Lessor and the Indenture Trustee
agree, subject to Section 11.1(b), to cooperate with the Lessee to issue
Additional Senior Notes under the Indenture that will rank pari passu with the
Senior Notes and/or any Additional Senior Notes then outstanding as to the
Indenture Estate to finance such Modifications; provided, however, that the
Equity Investor shall have been given the opportunity, but shall have no
obligation, to provide all or part of the funds required to finance the cost of
any such Modification by making an Additional Equity Investment in such amount,
if any, as it may determine in its sole and absolute discretion, but the Lessee
shall have no obligation to accept such Additional Equity Investment. In
connection with any such financing, the Owner Lessor and the Indenture Trustee
will execute and deliver one or more supplements to the Indenture for the
purpose of subjecting any such Modifications to the Lien of the Indenture; and
the Lessee and the Owner Lessor will execute and deliver an amendment to the
Project Lease to reflect the adjustments required by clause (b)(iii) below.

               (b) The obligations of the Owner Manager and the Indenture
Trustee to cooperate in the issuance of Additional Senior Notes pursuant to
Section 11.1(a) (any financing of Modifications through the issuance of such
Additional Senior Notes under the Indenture being called a "Supplemental
Financing") is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.12 of the
Indenture and to the following additional conditions:

                    (i) except with respect to Required Modifications, there
     shall be no more than one such financing in any calendar year;

                    (ii) the Additional Senior Notes (A) shall have a final
     maturity no later than the then-existing Lease Debt, and (B) will be fully
     repaid out of Periodic Lease Rent, as adjusted in accordance with clause
     (iii) below, pursuant to the Project Lease;

                    (iii) appropriate increases to Periodic Lease Rent and
     Termination Value (for incremental debt service associated with any
     Additional


                                       74



     Senior Notes) shall be made to provide for the payment of the Additional
     Senior Notes and to protect the Equity Investor's Net Economic Return;

                    (iv) no Lease Default or Lease Event of Default shall have
     occurred and be continuing unless the Modifications to be constructed with
     the proceeds of the Additional Senior Notes shall cure such default, and
     such Modifications shall be made in compliance with the Operative
     Documents;

                    (v) such Additional Senior Notes represent an aggregate
     amount of not less than $5,000,000, nor greater than 100% of the costs of
     the Modifications being financed; provided that the aggregate balance of
     the Lease Debt (after taking into account the Additional Senior Notes)
     shall not exceed 65% of the fair market value of the Project taking into
     account such Modifications (such fair market value shall, at the request of
     the Equity Investor or the Indenture Trustee, be determined by an appraiser
     selected by the Lessee, at the cost of the Lessee, and reasonably
     acceptable to the Equity Investor) and the Indenture Trustee;

                    (vi) the Equity Investor shall have received (A) an opinion
     of independent tax counsel selected by the Equity Investor and reasonably
     satisfactory to the Lessee to the effect that such financing will create no
     incremental tax risk to the Equity Investor, and (B) an indemnity, with
     verification, tax savings and contest rights provisions substantially the
     same as those set forth in the Tax Indemnity Agreement, against any
     incremental tax risks resulting from such financing in form and substance
     reasonably satisfactory to the Equity Investor from the Lessee;

                    (vii) the Lessee shall have made or delivered such
     representations, warranties, covenants, opinions, reports or certificates
     relating to such Supplemental Financing as the Equity Investor or the
     Indenture Trustee may reasonably request;

                    (viii) the Equity Investor shall not suffer any material
     adverse accounting effect under GAAP as a result of such Supplemental
     Financing; and

                    (ix) the Lease Rent Coverage Ratio for both of the
     immediately preceding two semiannual periods was greater than or equal to
     1.20 to 1.00 and the Projected Lease Rent Coverage Ratio for each
     semiannual period occurring while such Additional Senior Notes are
     outstanding is reasonably estimated (on a basis consistent with estimates
     used in connection with preparing the Projections at closing) to be greater
     than or equal to 1.20 to 1.00, as certified by the Lessee in an Officer's
     Certificate delivered to the Equity Investor, the Owner Lessor, and


                                       75

Noteholders, in each case to the extent incurred in connection with any
financing pursuant to this Section 11.1.

shall provide an Additional Equity Investment in an amount equal to the

     the Equity Investor and (B) an indemnity, with verification, tax savings
     and contest rights provisions substantially the same as those set forth in
     the Tax Indemnity Agreement, against any incremental tax risks resulting

     connection with such refinancing shall have been obtained from each Person
     whose authorization, approval or consent is necessary to consummate such
     refinancing with respect to the Lessee, the Owner Lessor, the Equity
     Investor, the Equity Investor and the Indenture Trustee, and such
     authorizations, approvals and consents shall be in full force and effect on

     Certificate dated the date of the issuance of the Additional Senior Notes

     Section 11.5. Assumption of Senior Notes. Upon the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Indenture Event of Default resulting from a Lease Event of
Default (but in any event prior to the consummation of any sale by the Indenture
Trustee of all or any portion of the Indenture Estate), the Equity Investor
shall have the right (but not the obligation) to assume, on a recourse basis as
joint obligor, all but not less than all of the obligations of the Owner Lessor
then outstanding under the Senior Notes by providing written notice thereof to
the Indenture Trustee, subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions:

                    (i) no Indenture Event of Default, nor any event that with
     the passage of time or the giving of notice or both would become a
     Indenture Event of Default, shall then exist other than such resulting from
     a then existing Lease Event of Default or any event that with the passage
     of time or the giving of notice or both would become a Lease Event of
     Default;

                    (ii) the Equity Investor shall become jointly and severally
     liable for all of the obligations of the Owner Lessor under the Senior
     Notes (including any Make Whole Premium that may become payable under the
     Lease Indenture after the assumption of the Senior Notes) and all such
     obligations shall become direct, primary, recourse obligations of the
     Equity Investor pursuant to an assumption agreement (which assumption
     agreement may be combined with the amendment of the Indenture in order to
     effectuate the assumption by the Equity


                                       80



     Investor, on a joint and several basis, of the obligations and liabilities
     of the Owner Lessor under the Senior Notes) which, among other things, (1)
     shall contain representations, warranties, covenants and defaults
     substantially the same as the representations, warranties, covenants and
     defaults (other than with respect to the payment of Rent) of the Lessee
     under the Project Lease and this Participation Agreement and (2) shall
     contain appropriate amendments to the provisions of the Indenture in order
     to (A) release the Project Lease from the Indenture Estate, (B) remove any
     cross-default to the Project Lease under the Indenture, (C) terminate all
     of the Indenture Trustee's rights in respect of the Project Lease, and (D)
     include the defaults referenced in clause (1) above, including applicable
     grace periods, as Indenture Events of Default under the Indenture;

                    (iii) after giving effect to such assumption and such
     amendment to the Indenture, the Lien of the Indenture shall be and remain a
     valid and first priority perfected security interest in the Indenture
     Estate securing the obligations of the Equity Investor and the Owner Lessor
     under the Senior Notes and the Equity Investor's obligations under such
     assumption agreement (as set forth in the opinion delivered pursuant to
     clause (v) below);

                    (iv) the Indenture Trustee shall have received one or more
     opinion(s) of counsel (which shall contain customary qualifications), which
     opinion(s) and counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to each of them and
     their respective counsel, to the effect that (a) such assumption agreement
     has been duly authorized, executed and delivered on behalf of the Equity
     Investor, (b) such assumption agreement, the amended Indenture and the
     Senior Notes constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Equity
     Investor, enforceable against it in accordance with their respective terms
     (subject to customary bankruptcy and equitable qualifications) and (c) all
     Governmental Approvals and filings required in connection with such
     assumption have been obtained, and such opinion(s) shall address such other
     issues as the Indenture Trustee shall reasonably request, subject, in the
     case of the enforceability opinions to be rendered pursuant to clause (b),
     to the limitation that enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy,
     insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium
     or other laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally
     and by general principles of equity;

                    (v) the Equity Investor shall have paid all amounts then due
     and owing (including overdue interest) under the Senior Notes (other than
     principal thereof then due and owing as a result of any acceleration of the
     Senior Notes);


                                       81



                    (vi) after giving effect to such assumption (and the payment
     in clause (vi) above), no Indenture Event of Default shall have occurred
     and be continuing;

                    (vii) either (i) the Indenture Trustee receives an opinion
     of counsel of a nationally-recognized law firm in form and substance
     reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee stating that the
     Noteholders will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal tax
     purposes as a result of the assumption, or (ii) the Equity Investor shall
     indemnify the Noteholders against any potential adverse tax effect as a
     result of such assumption in form and substance reasonably acceptable to
     the Indenture Trustee;

                    (viii) the Indenture Trustee shall have received a
     certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Equity Investor containing
     representations and warranties of the Equity Investor substantially similar
     to those given by the Lessee hereunder and reasonably satisfactory to the
     Indenture Trustee. Such certificate shall also state that (A) the
     conditions precedent required by this Participation Agreement for such
     assumption have been complied with (assuming that all documents, opinions
     and other matters which must be acceptable or reasonably acceptable to a
     receiving party are so acceptable to such party), (B) there is no pending
     or, to the knowledge of the Equity Investor, threatened, action, suit,
     investigation or proceeding against the Equity Investor that questions the
     validity of any documentation related to such assumption, the Senior Notes
     and the Indenture (each, an "Assumption Document") or the assumption
     contemplated thereby or which, if adversely determined, would have a
     material adverse effect on the ability of the Equity Investor to perform
     its obligations under any Assumption Document and (C) after giving effect
     to the assumption by the Equity Investor, (1) each representation and
     warranty of the Equity Investor made pursuant to the Assumption Documents
     is true and correct in all material respects and (2) the Equity Investor is
     not insolvent within the meaning of any applicable preferential transfer,
     fraudulent conveyance or bankruptcy law; and

                    (ix) the Equity Investor shall have paid, at no after-tax
     cost to such parties, all reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses
     (including reasonable attorney's fees and expenses) of the Owner Lessor,
     the Owner Manager and the Indenture Trustee in connection with such
     assumption and other transactions referred to in this Section 11.5.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Equity Investor shall not have the right
to assume the Senior Notes if the aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes
which have been issued pursuant to the Indenture is more than $45,000,000.


                                       82



               (b) The rights of the Equity Investor under this Section 11.5
shall not be deemed to limit in any respect the Indenture Trustee's rights and
remedies under the Indenture upon the occurrence of a Indenture Event of
Default; provided that upon the foregoing conditions being satisfied prior to
the consummation of any sale by the Indenture Trustee of all or any portion of
the Indenture Estate, all Indenture Events of Default arising from Lease Events
of Default shall be deemed cured and the Lien of the Indenture shall be
terminated solely with respect to the Owner Lessor's right, title and interest
to the Project Lease (and all Rent thereunder) and the Equity Investor and the
Owner Lessor (to the exclusion of the Indenture Trustee) may exercise all rights
of the Owner Lessor under the Project Lease.

SECTION 12. MISCELLANEOUS

     Section 12.1. Consents. The Equity Investor covenants and agrees that it
shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to any consent requested of the
Owner Lessor under the terms of the Operative Documents that by its terms is not
to be unreasonably withheld by the Owner Lessor.

     Section 12.2. Bankruptcy of Lessor Estate. If (i) all or any part of the
Lessor Estate becomes the property of a debtor subject to the provisions of
Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended from time to time, (ii) pursuant
to such reorganization provisions the Equity Investor is required, by reason of
the Equity Investor being held to have recourse liability to the debtor or the
trustee of the debtor directly or indirectly, to make payment on account of any
amount payable as principal or interest on the Senior Notes, and (iii) the
Indenture Trustee actually receives any Excess Amount, as defined below, which
reflects any payment by the Equity Investor on account of clause (ii) above, the
Indenture Trustee shall, upon obtaining Actual Knowledge thereof or upon written
request of the Equity Investor, promptly refund to the Equity Investor such
Excess Amount. For purposes of this Section 12.2, "Excess Amount" means the
amount by which such payment exceeds the amount that would have been received by
the Indenture Trustee if the Equity Investor had not become subject to the
recourse liability referred to in clause (ii) above. Nothing contained in this
Section 12.2 shall prevent the Indenture Trustee from enforcing any personal
recourse obligations (and retaining the proceeds thereof) of the Equity Investor
as contemplated by this Participation Agreement (other than those referred to in
clause (ii) above).

          The Indenture Trustee agrees that should the Lessor Estate become a
debtor subject to the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, it shall, upon the
written request of the Equity Investor, and provided that the making of the
election hereinafter referred to is permitted to be made by it under Applicable
Law and will not have any adverse impact on any Noteholder or the Indenture
Estate, all as determined by the Equity Investor or the Indenture Trustee, other
than as contemplated by the preceding paragraph, make the


                                       83



election referred to in Section 111 1(b)(1)(A)(i) of the Bankruptcy Code or any
successor provision if, in the absence of such election, the Indenture Trustee
would have recourse against the Equity Investor for the payment of the
indebtedness represented by the Senior Notes in circumstances in which such
Noteholders or the Indenture Trustee would not have recourse under the Indenture
if the Lessor Estate had not become a debtor under the Bankruptcy Code.

     Section 12.3. Amendments and Waivers. No term, covenant, agreement or
condition of this Agreement may be terminated, amended or compliance therewith
waived (either generally or in a particular instance, retroactively or
prospectively) except by an instrument or instruments in writing executed by
each party hereto.

     Section 12.4. Notices. Unless otherwise expressly specified or permitted by
the terms hereof, all communications and notices provided for herein to a party

Operative Documents to which it is a party, and none of the Trust Company or the
Indenture Trustee shall be liable for performance by any other party hereto of
such other party's obligations or duties hereunder or thereunder. In addition,
under no circumstances whatsoever shall the Equity Investor be liable to the
Lessee or any other Person in connection with the transactions contemplated
hereby for any action or inaction on the part of any other party hereto,
including the Owner Lessor or the Owner Manager, whether or not such action or
inaction is caused by willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Owner Lessor

or with the written consent of the Equity Investor.

               (b) The Trust Company is entering into the Operative Documents to
which it is a party solely as manager under the LLC Agreement and not in its

                                       87

Trustee be personally liable for, or for any loss in respect of, any of the

right to consent to or approve of any action or document which requires its
consent or approval and the right to waive any provision of, or consent to any
change or amendment to, any of the Operative Documents) shall not be construed
as giving rise to any expressed or implied duty owed by such trustee, and the
Indenture Trustee shall not be answerable in connection with any of the
foregoing for, or have any liability whatsoever as a result of, (i) its refusal
to perform, consent or approve of such discretionary acts without the prior
consent or direction of the applicable percentage of the Noteholders that would
be required if such consent or direction was obtained under the Indenture, or
(ii) its performance of any such discretionary act (except for any negligence or
willful misconduct in the performance of such acts). In connection with any such
discretionary acts, the Indenture Trustee may in its sole discretion (but shall
not, except as otherwise provided in the Indenture or as otherwise required by
Applicable Law, have any obligation to) request the approval of the Noteholders,
and each of the Noteholders may in its sole discretion (but shall not, except as
otherwise provided in the Operative Documents to which it is a party or as
otherwise required by Applicable Law, have any obligation to) request the
approval of the Noteholders.

Investor, the Equity Investor or the Indenture Trustee, or any Affiliates
thereof (other than the Owner Lessor), will be personally liable to any holder
of a Senior Note or in the case of the Owner Manager or the Equity Investor, to
the Indenture Trustee, for any amounts payable with respect to the Senior Notes.
All payments of principal of, premium,


                                       88

brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the suit, action or
proceeding is improper or that this Agreement, the other Operative Documents, or
the subject matter hereof or thereof may not be enforced in or by such court.

               (b) TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH OF THE
PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO DEMAND A TRIAL BY JURY, IN

     Section 12.18. Expansion Project; Phase II Project.

               (a) Expansion Project. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges
that the Lessee expects to add the Expansion Project to the Project in 2006 or
2007. The Expansion Project is expected to increase the capability of the
Project to generate additional power. The Expansion Project (i) will constitute
a Severable Modification and an Optional Modification which, unless such
Expansion Project is financed with Additional Senior Notes and/or an Additional
Equity Investment pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions
of, the Operative Documents, will be financed by ONI (in which case the
Expansion Project will not be subject to the Head Lease or the Project Lease),
(ii) will not be undertaken unless and until a new power purchase agreement is
entered into with respect to such additional capacity of the Expansion Project,
(iii) will not be undertaken if the Improvement Conditions have not been
satisfied and (iv) will not be undertaken if the implementation of the Expansion
Project would reduce by more than a de minimis amount the rights and benefits of
the Owner Lessor, and so long as the Lien of the Indenture shall not have been
terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture Trustee, with respect to the
Project. To the extent that additional resource rights are needed for the
Expansion Project, and PGV-II is willing to provide such resource rights, the
parties agree to reasonably cooperate with the Lessee in securing an assignment
by PGV-II back to the Lessee of such portion of the rights in the Geothermal
Resource assigned to PGV-II pursuant to the Resource Sublease Partial Assignment
as may be required for the Expansion Project.

               (b) Phase II Project. Each of the parties hereto also
acknowledges that ONI or PGV-II expects to undertake during the Basic Lease Term
the Phase II Project either adjacent to the Project or at a different location
on the Land (as defined in the Resource Sublease Partial Assignment). The Phase
II Project and the Project in the aggregate, are expected to have a generation
capacity of up to approximately 60 MW.


                                       91



The Phase II Project shall be subject to satisfaction of the conditions and
limitations set forth in the Resource Sublease Partial Assignment (which
conditions and limitations are incorporated herein) and shall only be permitted
if the Person that has agreed to purchase the additional contemplated electrical
output of the Phase II Project agrees that it shall have no right against the
Project, the Lessee, the Owner Lessor, the Indenture Trustee, the Equity
Investor or any Noteholder with respect to any matter relating to the Phase II
Project or the power to be sold therefrom, it being understood that if the Power
Purchaser shall purchase the output of the Phase II Project, it shall enter into
a new power purchase agreement. The Phase II Project will not be undertaken if
the implementation thereof would reduce by more than a de minimis amount the
rights and benefits of the Owner Lessor, and so long as the Lien of the
Indenture shall not have been terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture
Trustee, with respect to the Project. The parties agree that the Phase II
Project will not be part of the Project or subject to the Head Lease or the
Project Lease. The parties agree to reasonably cooperate with PGV to implement
the Phase II Project including with respect to any third party consents
necessary to implement such Phase II Project, it being understood that PGV-II
and ONI are third party beneficiaries of this Section. The parties acknowledge
that PGV and PGV-II may have to enter into co-tenancy agreements with PGV and/or
the Owner Lessor with respect to certain shared facilities, as contemplated by
Section 5.23. The parties agree to enter into or consent to such co-tenancy
arrangements provided there is no adverse effect on the operation, fair market
value, residual value or useful life of the Project.

     Section 12.19. Assumption of the Notes. Notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 13.2 of the Project Lease, if (a)(1) the Lessee submits a Qualifying
Cash Bid, and the Owner Lessor accepts (or is deemed to have accepted) such
Qualifying Cash Bid, or (2) the Lessee purchases the Project for scrap pursuant
to Section 13.2(c) of the Project Lease, (b) the Lessee (or its designee) shall
have executed and delivered an assumption agreement to assume in full the Senior
Notes and the obligations and liabilities of the Owner Lessor under the
Indenture as permitted by and in accordance with Section 2.10(B) of the
Indenture, (c) the Indenture Trustee shall have been granted a first priority
security interest in and to all assets and property which form the collateral
under the Lessee Security Agreement and shall have received opinions of counsel,
in form and substance satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, with respect to the

                                            Exhibit D to Participation Agreement

                       [Form of Subordination Provisions]

          The indebtedness evidenced by this instrument (herein called the
"Subordinated Debt") is junior, subordinated and subject in right of payment to
the prior payment in full in cash of all Rent, as defined herein, payable by
Puna Geothermal Venture, a Hawaii general partnership (the "Lessee"). Each
holder of this instrument, by its acceptance hereof, agrees to and shall be
bound by all the provisions hereof.

          As used herein, the term "Rent" shall mean all Periodic Lease Rent,
Renewal Lease Rent and Supplemental Lease Rent (as each term is defined in the
Participation Agreement defined below) payable by the Lessee under the Project
Lease Agreement, dated as of May 18, 2005 (the "Project Lease") between SE Puna,
L.L.C. (the "Owner Lessor") and the Lessee or arising out of or in connection
with the Participation Agreement, dated as of May 18, 2005 (as the same may be
amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the
"Participation Agreement"), among the by and between the Lessee, the Owner
Lessor, Wilmington Trust Company, a banking corporation organized and existing
under the laws of the State of Delaware, in its individual capacity (the "Trust
Company"), SE Puna Lease, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (the
"Equity Investor"), AIG Annuity Insurance Company, American General Life
Insurance Company and Allstate Life Insurance Company (each a "Noteholder" and,
collectively, the "Noteholders") and Union Bank of California, N.A., not in its
individual capacity, but solely as trustee under the Indenture (the "Indenture
Trustee"), and all other Operative Documents (as such term is defined in the
Participation Agreement).

          Unless and until all Rent shall have been paid in full in accordance
with the terms of the Operative Documents, the Lessee will not, directly or
indirectly, make or agree to make:

               (a) any payment (in cash or property, by set-off or otherwise),
               direct or indirect, of or on account of any principal, premium
               (if any) or interest in respect of any Subordinated Debt (or any
               indebtedness subordinated to any Subordinated Debt) and no such
               payment shall be accepted by any holder of Subordinated Debt, or

               (b) any redemption, purchase or other acquisition, direct or
               indirect, of any Subordinated Debt (or any indebtedness
               subordinated to any Subordinated Debt), and no holder of any
               Subordinated Debt shall be a party to any such redemption,
               purchase or other acquisition,

in each case, other than from amounts that are permitted to be distributed to
the Lessee in accordance with Section 5.9 of the Depositary Agreement.



                                            Exhibit D to Participation Agreement

          Upon (a) any acceleration of the principal amount due on the
Subordinated Debt or (b) any payment or distribution of assets of the Lessee of
any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to creditors
upon any dissolution or winding up or total or partial liquidation or
reorganization or similar proceeding of the Lessee or its property, whether
voluntary or involuntary or in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other
proceedings or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors, then and in any
such event all Rent shall first be paid in full in cash before the holders of
the Subordinated Debt shall be entitled to receive and retain any assets so paid
or distributed in respect of the Subordinated Debt (for principal, premium (if
any), interest or otherwise); and, upon any such acceleration, dissolution or
winding up or liquidation or reorganization or similar proceeding, any payment
or distribution of assets of the Lessee of any kind or character, whether in
cash, property or securities, to which the holders of the Subordinated Debt
would be entitled, except as otherwise provided herein, shall be paid by the
Lessee or by any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or
other person making such payment or distribution, or by the holders of the
Subordinated Debt if received by them, directly to the Owner Lessor, the Equity
Investor, the Trust Company, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders or such
other Person to whom such Rent is owed (collectively, the "Financing Parties"),
provided that until the Lien of the Indenture has been terminated and fully
discharged, the Financing Party shall be the Indenture Trustee, in accordance
with the Operative Documents to the extent necessary to pay all Rent in full,
after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to the Financing
Parties, before any payment or distribution is made to the holders of the
Subordinated Debt.

          The holder of this instrument hereby irrevocably authorizes and
empowers (without imposing any obligation on) each Financing Party and such
Financing Party's representatives, under the circumstances set forth in the
immediately preceding paragraph, to demand, sue for, collect and receive every
such payment or distribution described therein and give acquittance therefor, to
file claims and proofs of claims in any statutory or nonstatutory proceeding, to
vote such Financing Party's ratable share of the full amount of the Subordinated
Debt evidenced by this instrument in its sole discretion in connection with any
resolution, arrangement, plan of reorganization, compromise, settlement or
extension and to take all such other action (including without limitation, the
right to participate in any composition of creditors and the right to vote such
Financing Party's ratable share of the Subordinated Debt evidenced by this
instrument at creditors' meetings for the election of trustees, acceptances of
plans and otherwise), in the name of the holder of the Subordinated Debt
evidenced by this instrument or otherwise, as such Financing Party's
representatives may deem necessary or desirable for the enforcement of the
subordination provisions of this instrument. The holder of this instrument shall
execute and deliver to each Financing Party and such Financing Party's
representatives all such further instruments confirming the foregoing
authorization, and all such powers of



                                            Exhibit D to Participation Agreement

attorney, proofs of claim, assignments of claim and other instruments, and shall
take all such other action as may be requested by such Financing Party or such
Financing Party's representatives in order to enable such Financing Party to
enforce all claims upon or in respect of such Financing Party's ratable share of
the Subordinated Debt evidenced by this instrument.

          Should any payment or distribution be collected or received by the
holder of this instrument and such collection or receipt is not expressly
permitted by the foregoing provisions, such holder shall forthwith turn over the
same to the Financing Parties or their representatives in the form received
(except for the endorsement or the assignment of such holder when necessary)
and, until so turned over, the same shall be held in trust by such holder as the
property of the Financing Parties.

          No holder of this instrument shall, without the prior written consent
of the Financing Parties, have any right to demand payment of, or accelerate the
maturity of, or institute any proceedings to enforce, or exercise any rights in
respect of any indebtedness evidenced by this instrument until the Rent is paid
in full.

          Until the Rent shall have been paid in full, the holders of the
Subordinated Debt will not, without the prior written consent of the Financing
Parties, commence or join with any other Person in commencing any proceeding
against the Lessee or any other Person with respect to the Subordinated Debt
under any bankruptcy, reorganization, readjustment of debt, dissolution,
receivership, liquidation or insolvency law or statute now or hereafter in
effect in any jurisdiction, nor shall the holders of the Subordinated Debt,
without the prior written consent of the Financing Parties, participate in any
assignment for benefit of creditors, compositions, or arrangements with respect
to the Lessee's debts with respect to the Subordinated Debt.

          The Lessee shall give prompt written notice to the holders of
Subordinated Debt of any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization
of the Lessee.

          Subject to the payment in full of all Rent, the holders of the
Subordinated Debt shall be subrogated to the rights of the Financing Parties to
receive payments or distributions of assets of the Lessee made with respect to
the Rent until the Subordinated Debt shall be paid in full; provided, however,
that nothing herein contained shall be deemed to assign or grant to any holder
of Subordinated Debt, or subrogate any such holder to, any right of a Financing
Party as a mortgagee, secured party or other lien or pledgeholder to any
property of the Lessee which secures such Rent.

          Nothing contained in this instrument is intended or shall impair as
between the Lessee, its creditors other than the Financing Parties, and the
holders of the Subordinated Debt, the obligation of the Lessee which is absolute
and unconditional, to pay to the



                                            Exhibit D to Participation Agreement

holders of the Subordinated Debt, as and when the same shall become due and
payable in accordance with its terms, principal and interest hereon, subject to
the rights of the Financing Parties as herein provided, or to affect the
relative rights of the holders of the Subordinated Debt and creditors of the
Lessee other than the Financing Parties.

          The terms of these subordination provisions, the subordination
effected thereby, and the rights of the Financing Parties, shall not be affected
by (a) any amendment of or addition or supplement to the Participation
Agreement, the other Operative Documents or Rent or any instrument or agreement

guaranty therefor; or (d) assert or file any claim against the assets of the

Guarantor to pay, perform or discharge any Guaranteed Obligation prior to the
time such Guaranteed Obligation is due and payable pursuant to the Guaranteed
Agreements (other than any additional time periods that may

Transferee or its assets or any resulting release or discharge of any of the
Guaranteed Obligations;

          (e) the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to
enforce the same;

          (f) any failure or delay in the enforcement of the obligations of any
Person under any Guaranteed Agreement or any provision thereof;

circumstance that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable defense
available to or a discharge of a guarantor or surety with respect to any
Guaranteed Obligation;

          (k) the partial payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations
(whether as a result of the exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege or
otherwise) having been accepted or received; or

alleged force majeure, commercial impracticability or otherwise, in the
performance of the Guaranteed Obligations.

          Should any money due or owing under this Guaranty not be recoverable
from the Equity Investor Transferee due to any of the matters specified in
Sections 4.1(a) through (l) above, then, in any such case, such money shall
nevertheless be recoverable from the Guarantor as though the Guarantor were
principal debtor in respect thereof and not merely a guarantor and shall be paid
by the Guarantor forthwith.

          Section 4.2 Waiver by the Guarantor. The Guarantor hereby expressly
and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law,
diligence,

demand for payment, filing of claims with any court, any proceeding to enforce
any provision of any Guaranteed Agreement, notice of acceptance of this

obligation hereunder or any collateral security for any of the foregoing, any
right of protest, presentment, notice or demand whatsoever, all claims of
waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and all defenses (other

shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any
payment by or on behalf of the Equity Investor Transferee is rescinded or must
be otherwise restored by any of the Guaranteed Parties, whether as a result of
any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise.

          Section 4.4 Subrogation. Until all of the Guaranteed Obligations and
all other obligations hereunder shall have been paid or performed in full, the
Guarantor will not exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of
subrogation under this Guaranty, by any performance or payment made hereunder or
otherwise. If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor on account of such
subrogation rights at any time prior to the payment and performance in full of
the Guaranteed Obligations and the other obligations hereunder, such amount
shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Guaranteed Parties and shall
forthwith be paid to the Guaranteed Parties to be credited and applied to the
Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the
terms of the Guaranteed Agreement or to be held by the Guaranteed Parties as
collateral security for any Guaranteed Obligations thereafter existing.

                                    INSURANCE

                           INSURANCE PROVISIONS - PUNA

SECTION 1. (A) PROPERTY INSURANCE.

The Lessee will, subject to Section 8 below, maintain (or cause to be
maintained) in full force and effect at all times "All Risk" property insurance
customarily carried by prudent operators of geothermal power generating
facilities of comparable size and risk of the Project, and against loss or
damage from such causes as are customarily insured against, which includes
coverage for boiler and machinery, in a minimum amount not less than 100% of the
full replacement value of the Project (based on true replacement prices
available to the Lessee as an Affiliate of the equipment manufacturer). Such
insurance coverages are further subject to sublimits of $15,000,000 per
occurrence and in the annual aggregate for catastrophic perils (i.e., flood,
wind, earthquake, hurricane and volcanic eruption). Such insurance coverages
shall further be subject to a deductible, as to the Lessee's interest, not to
exceed (i) $250,000 per occurrence for property (physical) damage and boiler and
machinery breakdown, (ii) regarding occurrence of earthquake, wind, flood and
volcanic eruption 5% of the loss or a minimum of $500,000, and (iii) such other
higher amounts for catastrophic perils customarily maintained by prudent
operators of geothermal power generating facilities of comparable size and risk
of the Project.

     (b) Stipulated Loss Insurance

The Lessee will, subject to Section 8 below, maintain (or cause to be
maintained) in full force and effect at all times Stipulated Loss Insurance in
an amount not less than the difference between the Termination Value and the
Actual Cost Value, which shall mean replacement cost new less depreciation. Such
insurance shall be payable in the event the Lessee elects or is deemed to have
elected to terminate this Project Lease in accordance with Section 10.1.

SECTION 2. BUSINESS INTERRUPTION INSURANCE.

The Lessee will, subject to Section 8 below, maintain (or cause to be
maintained) "Business Interruption" insurance (as a separate policy or as an
extension of the "All Risk" property insurance policy required above) covering a
total or partial loss of net revenue income as a result of indemnifiable
physical loss or damage arising from an occurrence under the "All Risk" property
policy. The limits of liability shall be sufficient to cover 12 months of
Periodic Lease Rent, provided, however, that in the event that the Lessee shall
not maintain Stipulated Loss Insurance as a result of such coverage being
unavailable on a commercially reasonable basis, the Lessee shall use its
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain "Business Interruption" insurance to
cover 18 months of Periodic Lease Rent. The indemnity period of this business
interruption shall be 12 months. Waiting period deductibles shall be consistent
with industry practice subject


                                        1



to a maximum waiting period of (i) 45 days for each occurrence resulting from
property damage and (ii) 60 days for each occurrence resulting from boiler and
machinery breakdown.

SECTION 3. CONTROL OF WELL INSURANCE.

The Lessee will, subject to Section 8 below, maintain (or caused to be
maintained) in full force and effect at all times "Control of Well" insurance
providing coverage for the interest in the wells for (a) costs to bring a well
under control, (b) re-drilling, re-completion and /or re-conditioning expenses,
(c) seepage, pollution and contamination resulting from a well out of control
and (d) loss or damage to property of others in the care, custody or control of
the Lessee. The limit of liability with respect to the combined effects of
clauses (a) and (b) above shall not be less than $20,000,000 per occurrence and
$20,000,000 in the aggregate. Sublimits are not less than $1,000,000 for clauses
(c) and (d) above. Deductibles with respect to the combined effects of this
paragraph shall be consistent with industry practice subject to a maximum a
deductible of not more than $250,000 per occurrence

SECTION 4. LIABILITY INSURANCE.

The Lessee with respect to the Project, will, subject to Section 8 below,
maintain (or caused to be maintained) commercial general liability insurance,
including contractual liability coverage, including sudden and accidental or
named perils pollution liability coverage, subject to such coverage being
commercially available on commercially reasonable terms, business automobile
liability insurance and employers liability insurance and workers compensation
(as applicable), insuring against claims for bodily injury (including death) and
property damage to third parties arising out of the ownership, operation,
maintenance, condition and use of the Project and the Project Site, with limits
of not less than $15,000,000 per occurrence and $15,000,000 in the aggregate (to
be maintained at all times) or such other higher amount customarily maintained
by prudent operators of geothermal power generating facilities of comparable
size and risk of the Project. A maximum deductible of $250,000.00 per occurrence
shall be allowed.

The Lessee will annually review the liability insurance maintained by it or on
its behalf and will, if necessary, revise such coverage and limits (including
deductibles) in order that the liability insurance maintained by it or on its
behalf is consistent with that maintained by prudent operators of similar
facilities of comparable size and risk to the Project; provided, that the Lessee
may not decrease coverage or limits below the requirements set forth herein
without the written consent of the Indenture Trustee (or, if the Lien of the
Indenture has been terminated and fully discharged, Owner Lessor), such consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld and which will be based on an analysis by an
independent insurance expert from an internationally recognized insurance
brokerage firm selected by the Lessee and reasonably acceptable to Indenture
Trustee (or, if the Lien of the Indenture has been terminated and fully
discharged, the Owner Lessor). Such liability insurance may be purchased either
in a single limit or in combination with a general and an excess policy.


                                        2



SECTION 5. PROVISIONS WITH RESPECT TO INSURANCE.

In respect of the insurance required to be maintained or caused to be maintained
under this Schedule 1, the Lessee will (a) place the insurance maintained
pursuant to this Section with reputable insurance companies authorized to do
business in Hawaii having (i) an A.M. Best Insurance Reports rating of at least
"A-" or better and a financial size category of VIII or (ii) a Standard & Poor's
financial strength rating of "BBB" or higher, (b) name the Trust Company, the
Owner Lessor, the Equity Investor and the Indenture Trustee (as Indenture
Trustee and on behalf of the Noteholders) and their respective officers,
directors, employees, affiliates and assigns as additional insureds, as their
interests may appear (and, with respect to the insurance maintained pursuant to
Section 1 and 2 of this Schedule 1, name the Indenture Trustee (or, if the Lien
of the Indenture has been terminated and fully discharged, the Owner Lessor), as
sole payee, (c) cause the insurance companies to agree to waive all rights of
subrogation or action howsoever arising which they may have or acquire arising
out of any occurrence in respect of which any claim is admitted or paid
thereunder against the Trust Company, the Owner Lessor, the Equity Investor and
the Indenture Trustee and their respective directors, officers, employees and
assigns, and (d) cause such insurance or self-insurance to be primary without
right of contribution of any other insurance carried by or on behalf of the
Trust Company, the Owner Lessor, the Equity Investor and the Indenture Trustee
(as Indenture Trustee and on behalf of the Noteholders) with respect to their
respective interests in the Project and the Project Site.

All policies shall provide that the respective interests of the Trust Company,
the Owner Lessor, the Equity Investor and the Indenture Trustee shall not be
invalidated by any act or neglect of the Lessee or any other person, or any
breach or violation by the Lessee or any other person of any warranties,
declarations or conditions contained in the property insurance policies, any
action or inaction of the Lessee or others or by the use of the Project or the
Project Site for purposes more hazardous than permitted by such policies. All
liability insurance policies required to be maintained hereunder shall be
endorsed to provide that, in as much as the policies are written to cover more
than one insured, all terms, conditions, insuring agreements and endorsements,
with the exception of limits of liability, shall operate in the manner as if
there were a separate policy covering each insured. The Lessee shall, at its own
expense, promptly make or cause to be made all proofs of loss and take all other
steps necessary to collect the proceeds of such insurance.

The Lessee shall notify the insurance companies that the Lessee has granted a
first ranking assignment by way of security to the Owner Lessor and the
Indenture Trustee over the title and benefit of this insurance and its interest
and rights in the subject matter of this insurance, and confirm that they have
not been notified of any other pledge or assignment of or security interest in
the Lessee's interest in this insurance.

The insurance companies shall not be entitled to any recourse against or to
offset any sums payable to the Trust Company, the Owner Lessor, the Equity
Investor, the Noteholders or the Indenture Trustee against premium or other
monies owing by the Lessee, nor any sums owing to the Lessee under the policies
against any monies owing by the Lessee under any other policy or contract.


                                        3



All of the insurance policies required by this Schedule 1 may cover other
operations, facilities and properties of the Lessee or its Affiliates as long as
the limits of insurance available to the Project and the Project Site are not
less than the requirements set forth herein.

Claims and losses, if any, under any insurance policies required to be carried
under this Schedule 1 shall be adjusted with the insurance companies, including
the filing of appropriate proceedings, by the Lessee, subject to the approval of
the Indenture Trustee (or, if the Lien of the Indenture has been terminated and
fully discharged the Owner Lessor) if a Lease Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing.

All loss payments under any policy of insurance maintained pursuant to Section 1
and 2 of this Schedule 1 shall be made to the Depositary Bank and applied in
accordance with the terms of the Depositary Agreement.

The Lessee shall promptly notify the Owner Lessor and, so long as the Lien of
the Indenture has not been terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture
Trustee, of any claim in excess of $500,000.00 under any insurance policy
maintained pursuant to this Schedule 1. If any insurance policies for this
Project contain(s) aggregate limits applying to facilities other than this
Project, and such limits are diminished by any incident, occurrence, claim,
settlement or judgment against such insurance which has caused the carrier to
establish a reserve, the Lessee shall take or cause to be taken immediate steps
to restore such aggregate limits or shall provide other equivalent insurance
protection for such aggregate limits at all times.

SECTION 6. REPORTS.

The Lessee shall annually provide (A) the Owner Lessor, the Equity Investor and
the Indenture Trustee a report from an independent insurance broker, signed by
an officer of the broker, stating that in the opinion of such broker, the
insurance then carried or to be renewed is in compliance with all insurance
requirements set forth in this Schedule 1 and (B) a certificate of a Responsible
Officer of the Lessee certifying that all premiums in respect of such policies
are current and that such coverage is in compliance with all insurance
requirements set forth in this Schedule 1.

The insurance policies shall provide for at least 45 (forty-five) days' prior
written notice to the Owner Lessor, the Equity Investor and the Indenture
Trustee of any act or omission or of any event of which the insurance companies
have knowledge and which the insurance companies consider may invalidate or
render unenforceable in whole or in part this insurance or any claim under it or
which might entitle the insurance companies to terminate, rescind or repudiate
this policy in whole or part, or treat it as avoided, terminated or suspended,
against any insured party. The insurance policies shall provide that if an
insurance policy is cancelled for any reason whatsoever, including non-payment
of premium, or any changes are initiated by the Lessee which affect the
interests of the additional insureds, such cancellation or change shall not be
effective as to the additional insureds until 45 (forty-five) days (except for
non-payment of premium which shall be ten (10) days), after receipt by the
Indenture Trustee, Equity Investor and Owner Lessor of written notice sent by
registered mail from the applicable insurance company, such registered mail to
be received at the respective addresses set forth in Section 12.4 of the
Participation Agreement.


                                        4



SECTION 7. ADDITIONAL INSURANCE BY THE OWNER LESSOR.

At any time the Owner Lessor (either directly or in the name of the Equity
Investor) or Indenture Trustee may at its own expense and for its own account
carry insurance with respect to its interest in the Project and the Project
Site, provided, that such insurance does not in any way interfere with the
Lessee's ability to obtain insurance with respect to the Project described in
this Schedule 1. Any insurance payments received from policies maintained by the
Owner Lessor or Indenture Trustee pursuant to the previous sentence shall be
retained by the Owner Lessor or Indenture Trustee, as the case may be, without
reducing or otherwise affecting the Lessee's obligations hereunder.

SECTION 8. AMENDMENT OF INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS; UNAVAILABILITY OF INSURANCE.

If any insurance required to be maintained by the Lessee pursuant to this
Schedule 1 (including the limits or deductibles or any other terms under
policies for such insurance) ceases to be available on a commercially reasonable
basis, the Lessee shall provide written notice to the Owner Lessor, the Equity
Investor and, so long as the Lien of the Indenture has not been terminated and
fully discharged, the Indenture Trustee, which written notice shall be
accompanied by a letter from the Lessee's insurance broker stating that such
insurance is unavailable on a commercially reasonable basis and explaining in
detail the basis for such conclusions. Such notice shall be given not less than
thirty (30) days' prior to the scheduled date for renewal of any such policy.

In the event that a resolution acceptable to both parties cannot be reached,
within ten (10) days, the parties shall make arrangements, at the Lessee's
expense, for the formation of an insurance panel consisting of the Lessee's
insurance advisor (or broker) and the Owner Lessor's and, so long as the Lien of
the Indenture has not been terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture
Trustee's insurance advisor (or broker), and an independent insurance expert
from a internationally recognized insurance brokerage firm, chosen by the Lessee
and reasonably acceptable to the Owner Lessor and, so long as the Lien of the
Indenture has not been terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture Trustee.
Such independent expert shall conduct a separate review of the relevant
insurance requirements of this Schedule 1 and the market for such insurance at
the time, giving due consideration to the representations of both insurance
advisors, and upon conclusion of such review shall issue a written report
stating whether such insurance is available or unavailable on a commercially
reasonable basis and explaining in detail the basis for such conclusions.

If the insurance expert concludes that such insurance is not available on a
commercially reasonable basis, the insurance expert shall provide a written
recommendation and certification (which shall include the amount and type of
insurance which is available upon a commercially reasonable basis) not less than
fifteen (15) days before the date for renewal of such insurance. The Lessee
shall, prior to the expiration of the insurance then in effect, obtain such
insurance recommended and certified by such insurance expert that is available
on a commercially reasonable basis. The recommendation of the insurance expert
shall be conclusive and binding upon the Lessee and the Owner Lessor and the
Lessee shall, for so long as such insurance shall


                                        5



be unavailable on a commercially reasonable basis, be required to carry such
insurance that the insurance expert has recommended and certified is available
on a commercially reasonable basis; provided, however, that if any required
insurance hereunder that had previously been unavailable on a commercially
reasonable basis shall become available on a commercially reasonable basis, the
Lessee shall obtain such required insurance as promptly as practicable after the
Lessee has been given notice of such availability, so long as such insurance can
be obtained without causing unreasonable (as determined by the insurance expert)
cost inefficiencies or disruptions mid-term in the existing insurance programs.

All reasonable fees, costs and expenses associated with the insurance panel
(including the review by the insurance expert) shall be for the sole account of
the Lessee.

higher amounts for catastrophic perils customarily maintained by prudent
operators of geothermal power generating facilities of comparable size and risk
of the Project.

     (b) Stipulated Loss Insurance

The Lessee will, subject to Section 8 below, maintain (or cause to be
maintained) in full force and effect at all times Stipulated Loss Insurance in
an amount not less than the difference between the Termination Value and the
Actual Cost Value, which shall mean replacement cost new less depreciation. Such
insurance shall be payable in the event the Lessee elects or is deemed to have
elected to terminate this Project Lease in accordance with Section 10.1.

SECTION 2. BUSINESS INTERRUPTION INSURANCE.

The Lessee will, subject to Section 8 below, maintain (or cause to be
maintained) "Business Interruption" insurance (as a separate policy or as an
extension of the "All Risk" property insurance policy required above) covering a
total or partial loss of net revenue income as a result of indemnifiable
physical loss or damage arising from an occurrence under the "All Risk" property
policy. The limits of liability shall be sufficient to cover 12 months of
Periodic Lease Rent, provided, however, that in the event that the Lessee shall
not maintain Stipulated Loss Insurance as a result of such coverage being



unavailable on a commercially reasonable basis, the Lessee shall use its
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain "Business Interruption" insurance to
cover 18 months of Periodic Lease Rent. The indemnity period of this business
interruption shall be 12 months. Waiting period deductibles shall be consistent
with industry practice subject to a maximum waiting period of (i) 45 days for
each occurrence resulting from property damage and (ii) 60 days for each
occurrence resulting from boiler and machinery breakdown.

SECTION 3. CONTROL OF WELL INSURANCE.

The Lessee will, subject to Section 8 below, maintain (or caused to be
maintained) in full force and effect at all times "Control of Well" insurance
providing coverage for the interest in the wells for (a) costs to bring a well
under control, (b) re-drilling, re-completion and /or re-conditioning expenses,
(c) seepage, pollution and contamination resulting from a well out of control
and (d) loss or damage to property of others in the care, custody or control of
the Lessee. The limit of liability with respect to the combined effects of
clauses (a) and (b) above shall not be less than $20,000,000 per occurrence and
$20,000,000 in the aggregate. Sublimits are not less than $1,000,000 for clauses
(c) and (d) above. Deductibles with respect to the combined effects of this
paragraph shall be consistent with industry practice subject to a maximum a
deductible of not more than $250,000 per occurrence

SECTION 4. LIABILITY INSURANCE.

The Lessee with respect to the Project, will, subject to Section 8 below,
maintain (or caused to be maintained) commercial general liability insurance,
including contractual liability coverage, including sudden and accidental or
named perils pollution liability coverage, subject to such coverage being
commercially available on commercially reasonable terms, business automobile
liability insurance and employers liability insurance and workers compensation
(as applicable), insuring against claims for bodily injury (including death) and
property damage to third parties arising out of the ownership, operation,
maintenance, condition and use of the Project and the Project Site, with limits
of not less than $15,000,000 per occurrence and $15,000,000 in the aggregate (to
be maintained at all times) or such other higher amount customarily maintained
by prudent operators of geothermal power generating facilities of comparable
size and risk of the Project. A maximum deductible of $250,000.00 per occurrence
shall be allowed.

The Lessee will annually review the liability insurance maintained by it or on
its behalf and will, if necessary, revise such coverage and limits (including
deductibles) in order that the liability insurance maintained by it or on its
behalf is consistent with that maintained by prudent operators of similar
facilities of comparable size and risk to the


                                        2



Project; provided, that the Lessee may not decrease coverage or limits below the
requirements set forth herein without the written consent of the Indenture
Trustee (or, if the Lien of the Indenture has been terminated and fully
discharged, Owner Lessor), such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld and
which will be based on an analysis by an independent insurance expert from an
internationally recognized insurance brokerage firm selected by the Lessee and
reasonably acceptable to Indenture Trustee (or, if the Lien of the Indenture has
been terminated and fully discharged, the Owner Lessor). Such liability
insurance may be purchased either in a single limit or in combination with a
general and an excess policy.

SECTION 5. PROVISIONS WITH RESPECT TO INSURANCE.

In respect of the insurance required to be maintained or caused to be maintained
under this Schedule 1, the Lessee will (a) place the insurance maintained
pursuant to this Section with reputable insurance companies authorized to do
business in Hawaii having (i) an A.M. Best Insurance Reports rating of at least
"A-" or better and a financial size category of VIII or (ii) a Standard & Poor's
financial strength rating of "BBB" or higher, (b) name the Trust Company, the
Owner Lessor, the Equity Investor and the Indenture Trustee (as Indenture
Trustee and on behalf of the Noteholders) and their respective officers,
directors, employees, affiliates and assigns as additional insureds, as their
interests may appear (and, with respect to the insurance maintained pursuant to
Section 1 and 2 of this Schedule 1, name the Indenture Trustee (or, if the Lien
of the Indenture has been terminated and fully discharged, the Owner Lessor), as
sole payee, (c) cause the insurance companies to agree to waive all rights of
subrogation or action howsoever arising which they may have or acquire arising
out of any occurrence in respect of which any claim is admitted or paid
thereunder against the Trust Company, the Owner Lessor, the Equity Investor and
the Indenture Trustee and their respective directors, officers, employees and
assigns, and (d) cause such insurance or self-insurance to be primary without
right of contribution of any other insurance carried by or on behalf of the
Trust Company, the Owner Lessor, the Equity Investor and the Indenture Trustee
(as Indenture Trustee and on behalf of the Noteholders) with respect to their
respective interests in the Project and the Project Site.

All policies shall provide that the respective interests of the Trust Company,
the Owner Lessor, the Equity Investor and the Indenture Trustee shall not be
invalidated by any act or neglect of the Lessee or any other person, or any
breach or violation by the Lessee or any other person of any warranties,
declarations or conditions contained in the property insurance policies, any
action or inaction of the Lessee or others or by the use of the Project or the
Project Site for purposes more hazardous than permitted by such policies.


                                        3



All liability insurance policies required to be maintained hereunder shall be
endorsed to provide that, in as much as the policies are written to cover more
than one insured, all terms, conditions, insuring agreements and endorsements,
with the exception of limits of liability, shall operate in the manner as if
there were a separate policy covering each insured. The Lessee shall, at its own
expense, promptly make or cause to be made all proofs of loss and take all other
steps necessary to collect the proceeds of such insurance.

The Lessee shall notify the insurance companies that the Lessee has granted a
first ranking assignment by way of security to the Owner Lessor and the
Indenture Trustee over the title and benefit of this insurance and its interest
and rights in the subject matter of this insurance, and confirm that they have
not been notified of any other pledge or assignment of or security interest in
the Lessee's interest in this insurance.

The insurance companies shall not be entitled to any recourse against or to
offset any sums payable to the Trust Company, the Owner Lessor, the Equity
Investor, the Noteholders or the Indenture Trustee against premium or other
monies owing by the Lessee, nor any sums owing to the Lessee under the policies
against any monies owing by the Lessee under any other policy or contract.

All of the insurance policies required by this Schedule 1 may cover other
operations, facilities and properties of the Lessee or its Affiliates as long as
the limits of insurance available to the Project and the Project Site are not
less than the requirements set forth herein.

Claims and losses, if any, under any insurance policies required to be carried
under this Schedule 1 shall be adjusted with the insurance companies, including
the filing of appropriate proceedings, by the Lessee, subject to the approval of
the Indenture Trustee (or, if the Lien of the Indenture has been terminated and
fully discharged the Owner Lessor) if a Lease Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing.

All loss payments under any policy of insurance maintained pursuant to Section 1
and 2 of this Schedule 1 shall be made to the Depositary Bank and applied in
accordance with the terms of the Depositary Agreement.

The Lessee shall promptly notify the Owner Lessor and, so long as the Lien of
the Indenture has not been terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture
Trustee, of any claim in excess of $500,000.00 under any insurance policy
maintained pursuant to this Schedule 1. If any insurance policies for this
Project contain(s) aggregate limits applying to facilities other than this
Project, and such limits are diminished by any incident, occurrence, claim,
settlement or judgment against such insurance which has caused the carrier to
establish a reserve, the Lessee shall take or cause to be taken immediate steps
to


                                        4



restore such aggregate limits or shall provide other equivalent insurance
protection for such aggregate limits at all times.

SECTION 6. REPORTS.

The Lessee shall annually provide (A) the Owner Lessor, the Equity Investor and
the Indenture Trustee a report from an independent insurance broker, signed by
an officer of the broker, stating that in the opinion of such broker, the
insurance then carried or to be renewed is in compliance with all insurance
requirements set forth in this Schedule 1 and (B) a certificate of a Responsible
Officer of the Lessee certifying that all premiums in respect of such policies
are current and that such coverage is in compliance with all insurance
requirements set forth in this Schedule 1.

The insurance policies shall provide for at least 45 (forty-five) days' prior
written notice to the Owner Lessor, the Equity Investor and the Indenture
Trustee of any act or omission or of any event of which the insurance companies
have knowledge and which the insurance companies consider may invalidate or
render unenforceable in whole or in part this insurance or any claim under it or
which might entitle the insurance companies to terminate, rescind or repudiate
this policy in whole or part, or treat it as avoided, terminated or suspended,
against any insured party. The insurance policies shall provide that if an
insurance policy is cancelled for any reason whatsoever, including non-payment
of premium, or any changes are initiated by the Lessee which affect the
interests of the additional insureds, such cancellation or change shall not be
effective as to the additional insureds until 45 (forty-five) days (except for
non-payment of premium which shall be ten (10) days), after receipt by the
Indenture Trustee, Equity Investor and Owner Lessor of written notice sent by
registered mail from the applicable insurance company, such registered mail to
be received at the respective addresses set forth in Section 12.4 of the
Participation Agreement.

SECTION 7. ADDITIONAL INSURANCE BY THE OWNER LESSOR.

At any time the Owner Lessor (either directly or in the name of the Equity
Investor) or Indenture Trustee may at its own expense and for its own account
carry insurance with respect to its interest in the Project and the Project
Site, provided, that such insurance does not in any way interfere with the
Lessee's ability to obtain insurance with respect to the Project described in
this Schedule 1. Any insurance payments received from policies maintained by the
Owner Lessor or Indenture Trustee pursuant to the previous sentence shall be
retained by the Owner Lessor or Indenture Trustee, as the case may be, without
reducing or otherwise affecting the Lessee's obligations hereunder.


                                        5



SECTION 8. AMENDMENT OF INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS; UNAVAILABILITY OF INSURANCE.

If any insurance required to be maintained by the Lessee pursuant to this
Schedule 1 (including the limits or deductibles or any other terms under
policies for such insurance) ceases to be available on a commercially reasonable
basis, the Lessee shall provide written notice to the Owner Lessor, the Equity
Investor and, so long as the Lien of the Indenture has not been terminated and
fully discharged, the Indenture Trustee, which written notice shall be
accompanied by a letter from the Lessee's insurance broker stating that such
insurance is unavailable on a commercially reasonable basis and explaining in
detail the basis for such conclusions. Such notice shall be given not less than
thirty (30) days' prior to the scheduled date for renewal of any such policy.

In the event that a resolution acceptable to both parties cannot be reached,
within ten (10) days, the parties shall make arrangements, at the Lessee's
expense, for the formation of an insurance panel consisting of the Lessee's
insurance advisor (or broker) and the Owner Lessor's and, so long as the Lien of
the Indenture has not been terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture
Trustee's insurance advisor (or broker), and an independent insurance expert
from a internationally recognized insurance brokerage firm, chosen by the Lessee
and reasonably acceptable to the Owner Lessor and, so long as the Lien of the
Indenture has not been terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture Trustee.
Such independent expert shall conduct a separate review of the relevant
insurance requirements of this Schedule 1 and the market for such insurance at
the time, giving due consideration to the representations of both insurance
advisors, and upon conclusion of such review shall issue a written report
stating whether such insurance is available or unavailable on a commercially
reasonable basis and explaining in detail the basis for such conclusions.

If the insurance expert concludes that such insurance is not available on a
commercially reasonable basis, the insurance expert shall provide a written
recommendation and certification (which shall include the amount and type of
insurance which is available upon a commercially reasonable basis) not less than
fifteen (15) days before the date for renewal of such insurance. The Lessee
shall, prior to the expiration of the insurance then in effect, obtain such
insurance recommended and certified by such insurance expert that is available
on a commercially reasonable basis. The recommendation of the insurance expert
shall be conclusive and binding upon the Lessee and the Owner Lessor and the
Lessee shall, for so long as such insurance shall be unavailable on a
commercially reasonable basis, be required to carry such insurance that the
insurance expert has recommended and certified is available on a commercially
reasonable basis; provided, however, that if any required insurance hereunder
that had previously been unavailable on a commercially reasonable basis shall
become available on a commercially reasonable basis, the Lessee shall obtain
such required insurance as promptly as practicable after the Lessee has been
given notice of such availability, so long as such insurance can be


                                        6



obtained without causing unreasonable (as determined by the insurance expert)
cost inefficiencies or disruptions mid-term in the existing insurance programs.

All reasonable fees, costs and expenses associated with the insurance panel
(including the review by the insurance expert) shall be for the sole account of
the Lessee.

                         PROJECT LEASE AGREEMENT

     This PROJECT LEASE AGREEMENT, dated as of May 18, 2005 (this "Project
Lease"), is between SE PUNA, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (the
"Owner Lessor"), and PUNA GEOTHERMAL VENTURE, a Hawaii general partnership (the
"Lessee").

                                   WITNESSETH:

     WHEREAS, pursuant to the Head Lease, the Owner Lessor has leased the
Project from the Lessee for the Head Lease Term;

     WHEREAS, pursuant to this Project Lease, the Owner Lessor desires to lease
the Project to the Lessee for the Basic Lease Term and the Renewal Lease Terms,
if any, provided herein, and the Lessee desires to lease the Project from the
Owner Lessor on such terms;

     WHEREAS, the Project is located on the Project Site (as more particularly
described on Exhibit A hereto), but the Project does not include the Project
Site or any part thereof, and no part of the Project Site is being leased to the
Lessee under this Project Lease; and

     WHEREAS, pursuant to the Sublease of the Power Plant Sublease, the Lessee
is subleasing the Project Site to the Owner Lessor for a term equal to the term
of the Head Lease and pursuant to the Sub-Sublease of Power Plant Sublease, the
Owner Lessor is sub-subleasing the Project Site to the Lessee for a term equal
to the Basic Lease Term, including any Renewal Lease Term;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises, the mutual
agreements herein contained, and other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto
agree as follows:

SECTION 1. DEFINITIONS

     Unless the context hereof shall otherwise require, capitalized terms used
in this Project Lease, including the foregoing recitals, and not otherwise
defined herein shall have the respective meanings specified in Appendix A to the
Participation Agreement, dated as of May 18, 2005, among the Lessee, the Owner
Lessor, SE Puna Lease, L.L.C., as Equity Investor, Wilmington Trust Company, in
its individual capacity, the Noteholders named therein and Union Bank of
California, N.A., as Indenture Trustee. The general provisions of such Appendix
A shall apply to this Project Lease.

SECTION 2. LEASE OF THE PROJECT

     Section 2.1. Lease. The Owner Lessor hereby leases the Project (such lease
to be evidenced by the execution and delivery of Project Lease Supplement No. 1
or, if executed, Project Lease Supplement No. 2 in respect thereof), upon the
terms and conditions set forth herein and in Project Lease Supplement No. 1 or,
if executed, Project Lease Supplement No. 2, to the Lessee for the Basic Lease
Term and, subject to the Lessee's exercise of the renewal option or options in
Section 15, one or more Renewal Lease Terms, as the case may be, and the



Lessee hereby leases the Project, upon the terms and conditions set forth herein
and in Project Lease Supplement No. 1 or, if executed, Project Lease Supplement
No. 2, from the Owner Lessor for such term. The Lessee and the Owner Lessor
understand and agree that this Project Lease is subject to the Permitted
Encumbrances. The Project shall be subject to the terms of this Project Lease
from the date on which this Project Lease is executed and delivered.

SECTION 3. BASIC LEASE TERM AND RENT

          Section 3.1. Basic Lease Term. The basic lease term of this Project
Lease for the Project (the "Basic Lease Term") shall commence on the Closing
Date and shall terminate at 11:59 p.m. (New York City time) on January 3, 2028
(the "Basic Lease Term Expiration Date"), subject to earlier termination in
whole pursuant to Section 10, 13, 14, 17 or 22 hereof.

          Section 3.2. Rent.

          (a) Payment of Rent. The Lessee hereby agrees to pay to the Owner
Lessor Periodic Lease Rent, payable with respect to the Basic Lease Term for the
lease of the Project. Renewal Lease Rent shall be paid on the dates and in the
amounts set forth in Section 15. All Periodic Lease Rent and Renewal Lease Rent
to be paid pursuant to this Section 3.2 shall be payable in the manner set forth
in Section 3.5.

          (b) Allocation of Rent. The Periodic Lease Rent allocated to each
Rental Period for the use by the Lessee of the Project shall be an amount equal
to the Allocated Rent. Notwithstanding that Periodic Lease Rent is payable in
accordance with Section 3.2(a) hereof and without limiting the Lessee's payment
obligations under Section 3.2(a), the Allocated Rent calculated pursuant to this
Section 3.2(b) shall represent and be the amount of Periodic Lease Rent for
which the Lessee becomes liable on account of the use of the Project for each
calendar year included in whole or in part in the Basic Lease Term.

          (c) Section 467 Loan, Etc. It is the intention of the Owner Lessor and
the Lessee that the allocation of Periodic Lease Rent to each Rental Period as
provided in Section 3.2(b) constitutes a specific allocation of fixed rent
within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.467-1(c)(2)(ii) with the
effect that the Owner Lessor and the Lessee, on any federal income tax returns
filed by them (or on any federal income tax returns (and any state and local
income tax returns that follow the reporting on the relevant party's federal
income tax return) on which their income is included), shall accrue the amounts
of rental income and rental expense, respectively, set forth for each Rental
Period in an amount equal to the Proportional Rent. In addition, (i) if, with
respect to any Rental Period, the percentage set forth for such Rental Period
under the caption "Section 467 Interest Percentage" set forth in Schedule 2 to
Project Lease Supplement No. 1 (or if executed, Project Lease Supplement No. 2)
is positive, the Owner Lessor shall deduct interest expense and the Lessee shall
accrue interest income with respect to such period in an amount equal to the
product of the Head Lease Rent multiplied by such percentage ("Lessor Section
467 Interest") and (ii) if, with respect to any Rental Period, the percentage
set forth for such Rental Period under the caption "Section 467 Interest
Percentage" set forth in Schedule 2 to Project Lease Supplement No. 1 (or if
executed, Project Lease Supplement No. 2) is in parentheses, the Owner Lessor
shall accrue interest income and the Lessee shall deduct interest expense with
respect to such period in an amount equal to the


                                       2



product of the Head Lease Rent multiplied by such percentage ("Lessee Section
467 Interest"). All Section 467 Interest and principal in respect thereof,
Proportional Rent and Allocated Rent is already included as part of Periodic
Lease Rent and Termination Values, is payable as a portion thereof, and has been
taken into account in the calculation of the percentage set forth under the
heading "Periodic Lease Rent Percentage" on Schedule 1 to Project Lease
Supplement No. 1 (or if executed, Project Lease Supplement No. 2) or under the
heading "Termination Value Percentage" on Schedule 3 to Project Lease Supplement
No. 1 (or if executed, Project Lease Supplement No. 2). In no event shall any
Section 467 Interest or principal in respect thereof, Proportional Rent and/or
Allocated Rent be separately payable (including upon any termination of this
Project Lease, and regardless of whether or not Termination Value shall be
payable in connection with any such termination), it being agreed and understood
that these items represent characterizations for federal income tax purposes
only, including in the case of any termination of this Project Lease pursuant to
Sections 10, 13, 14 and 17 where Termination Value is not payable.

          Section 3.3. Supplemental Lease Rent. The Lessee also agrees to pay to
the Owner Lessor, or to any other Person entitled thereto as expressly provided
herein or in any other Operative Document, as appropriate, any and all
Supplemental Lease Rent, promptly as the same shall become due and owing, or
where no due date is specified, promptly after demand by the Person entitled
thereto, and in the event of any failure on the part of the Lessee to pay any
Supplemental Lease Rent, the Owner Lessor shall have all rights, powers and
remedies provided for herein or by law or equity or otherwise for the failure to
pay Periodic Lease Rent or Renewal Lease Rent. The Lessee will also pay as
Supplemental Lease Rent, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, an amount
equal to interest at the Overdue Rate on any part of any payment of Periodic
Lease Rent or Renewal Lease Rent not paid when due for any period for which the
same shall be overdue and on any Supplemental Lease Rent not paid when due
(whether on demand or otherwise) for the period from such due date until the
same shall be paid. The Lessee also agrees to pay as Supplemental Lease Rent an
amount equal to any premium, including Make Whole Premium, required to be paid
pursuant to the Indenture or any Senior Note (other than any Make Whole Premium
which may be payable after an assumption of the Senior Notes by the Equity
Investor pursuant to Section 11.4 of the Participation Agreement after the
termination of this Project Lease) and any amount required to be paid as
compensation by the Owner Lessor pursuant to Section 5.4(A) of the Indenture.
All Supplemental Lease Rent to be paid pursuant to this Section 3.3 shall be
payable in the manner set forth in Section 3.5.

          Section 3.4. Adjustment of Lease Schedules; Minimum Rent.

          (a) The Lessee and the Owner Lessor agree that Periodic Lease Rent,
Allocated Rent, FPPO Price, EBO Price, Proportional Rent, Section 467 Interest
and principal in respect thereof, and Termination Values shall be adjusted,
either upwards or downwards, to reflect (i) the issuance of any Additional
Senior Notes pursuant to Section 2.12 of the Indenture in connection with a
refunding or refinancing of the Senior Notes pursuant to Section 11.3 of the
Participation Agreement (ii) the issuance of Additional Senior Notes pursuant to
Section 2.12 of the Indenture in connection with the financing of Modifications
pursuant to Section 11.1 of the Participation Agreement and (iii) any payment of
Head Lease Rent pursuant to Section 11.2(c) of the Participation Agreement. In
the event of a refinancing of the Senior Notes and issuance of


                                       3



Additional Senior Notes pursuant to clause (i) above, the Periodic Lease Rent
and Allocated Rent shall change solely to reflect the change in interest payable
on the Additional Senior Notes issued from the interest on the Senior Notes
being refunded or refinanced. In the event that the Lessee obtains supplemental
financing pursuant to clause (ii) above, Periodic Lease Rent and Allocated Rent
shall change solely to reflect the increased debt service payable on the Senior
Notes as a result of the issuance of Additional Senior Notes.

          (b) Any adjustments pursuant to this Section 3.4 shall be calculated
to preserve the Equity Investor's Net Economic Return through the end of the
Basic Lease Term and to maintain a minimum Projected Lease Rent Coverage Ratio
of 1.40 to 1.00 on each Rent Payment Date during the remainder of the Basic
Lease Term; provided, however, that to the extent consistent with preserving the
Equity Investor's Net Economic Return, all adjustments shall be calculated to
preserve operating lease treatment for the Lessee under GAAP and to minimize, to
the extent possible, the internal rate of return of the Periodic Lease Rents and
the present value of the Periodic Lease Rent through the end of the Basic Lease
Term. Adjustments will be made using the same method of computation and
assumptions, including Tax Assumptions and Pricing Assumptions originally used
(other than those that have changed as the result of the event giving rise to
the adjustment) in the calculation of the Periodic Lease Rent, Allocated Rent,
Section 467 Loan Balance, Section 467 Loan Interest and Termination Values and
to comply with law including Section 467 of the Code (except to the extent that
the original transaction did not comply therewith). The adjustments contemplated
by this Section 3.4 will result in corresponding adjustments to Allocated Rent,
Proportional Rent, Section 467 Loan Balances, Section 467 Interest and
Termination Values.

          (c) Anything herein or in any other Operative Document to the contrary
notwithstanding, Periodic Lease Rent payable on any Rent Payment Date, whether
or not adjusted in accordance with this Section 3.4, shall, in the aggregate, be
in an amount at least sufficient to pay in full principal and interest payable
on the Senior Notes on such Rent Payment Date (except principal and interest
payable upon an Indenture Event of Default that is not caused by a Lease Event
of Default). Anything herein or in any other Operative Document to the contrary
notwithstanding, Termination Values, the EBO Price and the FPPO Price payable on
any date under this Project Lease, whether or not adjusted in accordance with
this Section 3.4, shall be, together with all other Rent due and owing on such
date, exclusive of any portion thereof that is an Excepted Payment, in an amount
at least sufficient to pay in full the principal of, premium, if any, and
interest payable on the Senior Notes on such date.

          (d) Any adjustment pursuant to this Section 3.4 shall initially be
computed by the Equity Investor, subject to the verification procedure described
in this Section 3.4(d). Once computed, the results of such computation shall
promptly be delivered by the Equity Investor to the Lessee. Within 20 days after
the receipt of the results of any such adjustment, the Lessee may request that a
nationally recognized firm of accountants or lease advisors selected by the
Equity Investor and reasonably satisfactory to the Lessee (the "Verifier")
verify, after consultation with the Equity Investor and the Lessee, the accuracy
of such adjustment in accordance with this Section 3.4. The Equity Investor and
the Lessee hereby agree, (i) each shall have the right to communicate with the
Verifier, and (ii) subject to the execution by the Verifier of an appropriate
confidentiality agreement, to provide the Verifier with all information and


                                       4



materials (other than income tax returns) as shall be necessary in connection
therewith. If the Verifier confirms that such adjustment is in accordance with
this Section 3.4, it shall so certify to the Lessee, the Owner Lessor and the
Equity Investor and such certification shall be final, binding and conclusive on
the Lessee, the Equity Investor and the Owner Lessor. If the Verifier concludes
that such adjustment is not in accordance with this Section 3.4, and the
adjustments to Periodic Lease Rent, Allocated Rent, Proportional Rent, Section
467 Loan Balance, Section 467 Interest or Termination Value calculated by the
Verifier are different from those calculated by the Equity Investor, then it
shall so certify to the Lessee, the Owner Lessor and the Equity Investor and the
Verifier's calculation shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Lessee, the
Owner Lessor and the Equity Investor. If the Lessee does not request
verification of any adjustment within the period specified above, the
computation provided by the Equity Investor shall be final, binding and
conclusive on the Lessee, the Owner Lessor and the Equity Investor. The final
determination of any adjustment hereunder shall be set forth in an amendment to
this Project Lease, executed and delivered by the Owner Lessor and the Lessee
and consented to by the Equity Investor; provided, however, that any omission to
execute and deliver such amendment shall not affect the validity and
effectiveness of any such adjustment. The reasonable fees, costs and expenses of
the Verifier in verifying an adjustment pursuant to this Section 3.4 shall be
paid by the Lessee; provided, however, that, in the event that such Verifier
determines that the present value of Periodic Lease Rent to be made under this
Project Lease as calculated by the Equity Investor is greater than the present
value of the correct Periodic Lease Rent as certified by the Verifier, in each
case, discounted semiannually on each Rent Payment Date at the Discount Rate, by
more than six basis points, then such expenses of the Verifier shall be paid by
the Equity Investor. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the sole
responsibility of the Verifier shall be to verify the calculations hereunder and
matters of interpretation of this Project Lease or any other Operative Document
shall not be within the scope of the Verifier's responsibilities. In addition,
notwithstanding any other provisions in the Operative Documents, in no event
shall the EBO Price be adjusted to an amount that is less than the greatest of
(A) the Termination Value for the Project computed as of the EBO Date, (B) the
estimated fair market value of the Project on the EBO Date (as set forth in the
appraisal received pursuant to Section 4(n) of the Participation Agreement or
this Section 3.4, as the case may be), and (C) the present value as of the EBO
Date of the sum of (i) the then remaining scheduled Periodic Lease Rent payments
through the end of the Basic Lease Term as set forth in such appraisal, and (ii)
the FPPO Price (the present value calculation described in this clause (C) shall
be determined utilizing a semi-annual compounded discount rate equal to the
Discount Rate.

          Section 3.5. Manner of Payments. All Rent (whether Periodic Lease
Rent, Renewal Lease Rent or Supplemental Lease Rent) shall be paid by the Lessee
in lawful currency of the United States of America in immediately available
funds to the recipient not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date
due. All Rent payable to the Owner Lessor by the Lessee (other than Excepted
Payments) shall be paid by the Lessee to the Owner Lessor by payment to the
Owner Lessor's Account, or to such other place as the Owner Lessor shall notify
the Lessee in writing; provided, however, that so long as the Lien of the
Indenture has not been terminated and fully discharged, the Owner Lessor hereby
irrevocably directs (it being agreed and understood that such direction shall be
deemed to have been revoked after the Lien of the Indenture shall have been
terminated and fully discharged in accordance with its terms), and the Lessee
agrees, that all payments of Rent (other than Excepted Payments) payable to the
Owner


                                       5



Lessor shall be paid to such place as the Indenture Trustee shall notify the
Lessee in writing pursuant to the Indenture. Payments constituting Excepted
Payments shall be made to the Person entitled thereto at the address for such
Person set forth in the Participation Agreement, or to such other place as such
Person shall notify the Lessee in writing.

SECTION 4. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES; RIGHT OF QUIET ENJOYMENT

LESSEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT NONE OF THE OWNER LESSOR, THE EQUITY INVESTOR OR THE
INDENTURE TRUSTEE MAKES NOR SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE MADE, AND EACH EXPRESSLY

Lessor and the Equity Investor on the one hand and the Lessee on the other hand
are to be borne by the Lessee with respect to acts, occurrences or omissions
during the Project Lease Term. None of the

Owner Lessor, the Equity Investor or the Indenture Trustee shall have any

paragraph (a) of this Section 4.1 have been negotiated, and, except to the
extent otherwise expressly stated herein or in Sections 3.2(f) and 3.4(f) of the
Participation Agreement, the foregoing provisions are intended to be a complete
exclusion and negation of any representations or warranties of the Owner Lessor
and the Equity Investor, express or implied, with respect to the Project or any
Components thereof that may arise pursuant to any Applicable Law now or
hereafter in effect or otherwise.

          (b) During the Project Lease Term, so long as no Lease Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Owner Lessor hereby appoints
irrevocably and constitutes the Lessee its agent and attorney-in-fact, coupled
with an interest, to assert and enforce, from time to time, in the name and for
the account of the Owner Lessor and the Lessee, as their interests may appear,
but in all cases at the sole cost and expense of the Lessee, whatever claims and
rights the Owner Lessor may have in respect of the Project or any Component
thereof against any manufacturer, vendor or contractor or under any express or
implied warranties relating to the Project or any Component thereof.

          Section 4.2. Quiet Enjoyment. The Owner Lessor agrees that,
notwithstanding any provision of any other Operative Document, so long as no
Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Owner Lessor
shall not interfere with or interrupt the quiet enjoyment of the use, operation
and possession by the Lessee of the Project or Modifications thereto during the
Project Lease Term.

SECTION 5. RETURN OF PROJECT

          Section 5.1. Return. Unless the Lessee shall have purchased the Owner
Lessor's Leasehold Interest in accordance with Section 22 hereof, upon
expiration or early termination of this Project Lease, the Lessee, at its own
expense, shall return the Project (together with any Modifications, title to
which shall have vested in the Owner Lessor pursuant to the first sentence of
Section 8.3) to the Owner Lessor or any transferee or assignee of the Owner
Lessor by surrendering the Project into the possession of the Owner Lessor or
such transferee or assignee at the Project Site subject to the return conditions
set forth in Sections 5.2 and 5.3. In connection with such return, the Lessee
shall:

               (i) assign, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, and shall
          cooperate with all reasonable requests of the Equity Investor, the
          Owner Lessor or any transferee or assignee of either of such parties
          for purposes of obtaining, or enabling the Equity Investor, the Owner
          Lessor or such transferees or assignees to obtain, any and all
          Governmental Approvals and licenses, permits, approvals and consents
          of any other Persons that are or will be required to be obtained by
          the Equity


                                       7



          Investor, the Owner Lessor or such transferee or assignee in
          connection with the use, operation or maintenance of the Project on or
          after such return in compliance with Applicable Law; provided that if
          any such Governmental Approval or other license, permit, approval or
          consent also relates to any other facilities, the Lessee and the Owner
          Lessor shall enter into mutually satisfactory arrangements so that the
          Project and such other facilities may each be owned, operated and
          maintained in a commercially reasonable manner;

               (ii) provide the Owner Lessor or a transferee or assignee of
          Owner Lessor copies of all documents (including all Governmental
          Approvals and related materials), instruments, plans, maps,
          specifications, manuals, drawings and other documentary materials
          relating to the installation, maintenance, operation, construction,
          design, modification and repair of the Project as shall be in the
          Lessee's possession and shall be reasonably appropriate or necessary
          for the continued operation of the Project; and

               (iii) assign to the Owner Lessor, or its designee, any Project
          Document requested by the Owner Lessor by an appropriate instrument of
          transfer in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Owner
          Lessor and prepared by and at the expense of the Lessee.

Upon such return, the right to use the Project granted hereunder for the benefit
of the Lessee shall cease and terminate.

          Section 5.2. Condition Upon Return. At the time of the return of the
Project by the Lessee to the Owner Lessor or any transferee or assignee of the
Owner Lessor pursuant to Section 5.1, the following conditions shall be complied
with, all at the Lessee's sole cost and expense; provided that clauses (a), (b)
and (d) shall not apply to any return pursuant to Section 10 and clause (b)
(solely with respect to compliance with Section 8) shall not apply to any
termination pursuant to Section 14:

          (a) the Project shall be in at least as good condition as it would
have been in if it had been maintained in the manner required by the terms of
this Project Lease and shall be free and clear of all Liens (other than
Permitted Liens described in clause (a)-(c), (f), (g) and (j) of the definition
thereof);

          (b) the Project shall be in compliance with Sections 7 and 8;

          (c) no Component shall be a temporary component and any replacement
component shall satisfy the standards of Section 7.2;

          (d) if this Project Lease is being terminated and the Owner Lessor's
Leasehold Interest is being transferred to a third party pursuant to Section 13
or Section 14, the Lessee, at the request of the Owner Lessor, shall enter into
arrangements with such third party reasonably acceptable to such third party to
permit such third party access to and use of the Project and the Project Site;
and


                                       8



          (e) the Lessee, at the request of the Owner Lessor made in accordance
with Section 8.4, shall sell to the Owner Lessor (or its transferee or assignee)
on the date set forth in Section 8.4 at the then Fair Market Sales Value thereof
each Removable Modification to the Project requested by the Owner Lessor, and/or
the Expansion Project, subject in each case to all existing Liens. The fees and
expenses of the Independent Appraiser(s) incurred pursuant to this clause (e)
shall be paid by the Owner Lessor. If the Owner Lessor determines not to
purchase any Removable Modification (which may include the Expansion Project)
the Lessee, at its expense, shall remove such Removable Modification from the
Project Site no later than the expiration or termination date of the Project
Lease without damaging or otherwise adversely affecting the Project.

          Section 5.3. Environmental Reports; Clean-up.

          (a) In connection with the return of the Project to the Owner Lessor
pursuant to this Section 5, the Lessee shall, at its own expense, provide the
Owner Lessor and, so long as the Lien of the Indenture shall not have been
terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture Trustee (i) not earlier than nine
(9) months nor later than three (3) months prior to the expiration date of the
Basic Lease Term or the last Renewal Lease Term elected by the Lessee, (ii) in
connection with any return pursuant to Section 10, 13 or 14, no later than three
(3) months prior to the expiration of this Project Lease or (iii) in connection
with any return pursuant to Section 17, as promptly as possible after such
return (but, so long as reasonable access is provided, within 45 days after such
return), a phase I environmental report including a compliance with
Environmental Laws audit (together referred to as "phase I survey") addressed to
the Owner Lessor and, so long as the Lien of the Indenture has not been
terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture Trustee, as to the environmental
condition of the Project, the presence or absence of any Environmental
Conditions and compliance or noncompliance with applicable Environmental Laws.
Such phase I survey shall have been performed not earlier than 90 days prior to
the date such phase I survey is provided to the Owner Lessor, by a reputable
environmental consulting firm (selected by the Lessee and reasonably acceptable
to the Equity Investor), and shall be in form and scope reasonably satisfactory
to the Equity Investor and, if the Lien of the Indenture shall not have been
terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture Trustee. The phase I survey will
only be expanded to a phase II environmental survey if and only if, as a result
of the phase I survey, facts are revealed that would reasonably require further
investigation in order to assess the environmental condition of the Project, the
presence or absence of any Environmental Conditions, or compliance or
noncompliance with applicable Environmental Laws. The provisions of such
environmental surveys shall not relieve the Lessee of any indemnification
obligation or liability with respect to Environmental Conditions existing at the
time of such return, whether known or unknown, in respect of the Project.

          (b) If the phase I survey (and phase II environmental survey, if
necessary) delivered pursuant to Section 5.3(a) indicates that any action
(including cleaning, investigation, abatement, correction, removal or
remediation) is then required under any then applicable Environmental Laws
(whether indicated in the phase I survey or phase II environmental survey or
otherwise and including any action then required under applicable Environmental
Laws for the Project to be then in compliance with such Laws), the Lessee shall,
at its own expense, within 90 days of the Owner Lessor having received such
survey provide the Owner Lessor and, so long


                                       9



as the Lien of the Indenture shall not have been terminated and fully
discharged, the Indenture Trustee, with a remediation plan reasonably
satisfactory to the Equity Investor and, if the Lien of the Indenture shall not
have been terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture Trustee, designed to
effect compliance with applicable Environmental Laws and the return conditions
set forth in this Section 5 as promptly as is reasonably practical (and in any
event prior to the expiration of the Project Lease Term) and without materially
adversely affecting the continued operation of the Project. To the extent that
any action (including cleaning, investigation, abatement, correction, removal or
remediation) required to be taken under this Section 5.3(b) cannot reasonably be
completed prior to expiration or termination of this Project Lease, the Lessee
shall complete such action (including cleaning, investigation, abatement,
correction, removal or remediation) as promptly thereafter as is reasonably
practical, and in addition the Lessee shall provide to the Owner Lessor and, so
long as the Lien of the Indenture shall not have been terminated and fully
discharged, the Indenture Trustee, (x) adequate financial assurance during such
period following such expiration or termination of this Project Lease or (y) an
agreement from an entity that meets the Minimum Credit Rating that such
obligations shall be satisfied. The obligations of the Lessee set forth in this
Section 5.3(a) and (b) shall survive the termination of this Project Lease and
the expiration of the Project Lease Term.

          Section 5.4. Expenses. The Lessee agrees to pay or reimburse, on an
After-Tax Basis, on demand, all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the
Owner Lessor, the Equity Investor, the Indenture Trustee and any Noteholder in
connection with any return contemplated by this Section 5.

SECTION 6. LIENS

     The Lessee will not directly or indirectly create, incur, assume or suffer
to exist any Lien on or with respect to the Project (or any Component thereof),
the Project Site, the Lessee's Interest in the Geothermal Resource or the Owner
Lessor's interest therein, except Permitted Liens, and the Lessee shall promptly
notify the Owner Lessor of the imposition of any such Lien of which the Lessee
is aware and shall promptly, at its own expense, take such action as may be
necessary to fully discharge and release any such Lien.

SECTION 7. MAINTENANCE; REPLACEMENTS OF COMPONENTS

          Section 7.1. Maintenance. The Lessee, at its own cost and expense,
will (a) cause the Project to be maintained in good condition, repair and
working order (ordinary wear and tear excepted) and in any event in all material
respects (i) in accordance with Prudent Industry Practice, (ii) in compliance
with all Applicable Laws of any Governmental Entity having jurisdiction,
including all Environmental Laws (provided, however, that the Lessee may, in
good faith and by appropriate proceedings, diligently contest the validity or
application of any Applicable Law in any reasonable manner which does not
involve any danger of (A) foreclosure, sale, forfeiture or loss of, or
imposition of a Lien (other than a de minimis Lien) on, such Project, (B) impair
(other than in a de minimis fashion) the use, operation or maintenance of such
Project in any respect, (C) any criminal liability being incurred by the Equity
Investor, the Owner Lessor, the Indenture Trustee or any Noteholder, (D) the
Equity Investor, the Owner Lessor, the Indenture Trustee or any Noteholder being
subject to any unindemnified civil liability or of the


                                       10



Equity Investor or the Owner Lessor being subject to regulation as a public
utility under Applicable Law or (E) any Material Adverse Effect); and (iii) in
accordance with the terms of all insurance policies required to be maintained
pursuant to Section 11 and (b) cause to be made, at its own cost and expense,
all repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements thereof, all
as may be necessary so that the Project may be operated in accordance with its
intended purposes.

          Section 7.2. Replacement of Components. In the ordinary course of
maintenance, service, repair or testing of the Project or any Component the
Lessee, at its own cost and expense, may remove or cause or permit to be removed
from the Project any Component; provided, however, that the Lessee shall (a)
cause such Component to be replaced by a replacement Component which shall be
free and clear of all Liens (except Permitted Liens described in clauses
(a)-(c), (e) (solely for amounts not yet delinquent), (f), (g) or (j) of the
definition thereof) and in at least as good operating condition as the Component
replaced, assuming that the Component replaced was maintained in accordance with
this Project Lease (each such replacement Component being herein referred to as
a "Replacement Component") and (b) cause such replacement to be performed in a
manner which does not (i) decrease by more than a de minimis amount the current
or residual value, remaining useful life or utility of the Project below the
current or residual value, the remaining useful life or the utility thereof
immediately prior to such replacement (assuming the Project and such Component
thereof was then in the condition required to be maintained by the terms of this
Project Lease), (ii) cause the Project to become "limited-use" property within
the meaning of Rev. Proc. 2001-28, 2001-1 C.B. 1156 or (iii) cause the Lessee or
the Owner Lessor to be in default under any applicable term or provision of any
Operative Document. If any Component to the Project that is subject to this
Project Lease is at any time removed from the Project, such Component shall
remain subject to this Project Lease, wherever located, until such time as such
Component shall be replaced by a Replacement Component which has been
incorporated in the Project and which meets the requirements for Replacement
Components specified above. Immediately upon any Replacement Component becoming
incorporated in the Project, without further act (and at no cost to the Owner
Lessor and with no adjustment to the Head Lease Rent, Periodic Lease Rent,
Allocated Rent, Proportional Rent or Renewal Lease Rent), (x) the replaced
Component shall no longer be subject to this Project Lease, (y) such replaced
Component shall be free and clear of all rights of the Owner Lessor and the
Indenture Trustee, and (z) the Replacement Component shall become subject to the
Head Lease and this Project Lease and, so long as the Lien of the Indenture
shall not have been terminated and fully discharged, the Lien of the Indenture,
and (ii) be deemed a part of the Project for all purposes of this Project Lease.
Notwithstanding anything in this Section 7.2 or elsewhere in this Project Lease
to the contrary, if the Lessee has determined that a Component is surplus or
obsolete, it shall have the right to remove such Component without replacing it;
provided, that no such Component may be so removed without being replaced if
such removal would decrease by more than a de minimis amount the current or
residual value, remaining useful life or utility of the Project below the
current or residual value, the remaining useful life or the utility thereof
immediately prior to such removal (assuming the Project was then in the
condition required to be maintained by the terms of this Project Lease) or cause
the Project to become "limited-use" property within the meaning of Rev. Proc.
2001-28, 2001-1 C.B. 1156.


                                       11



SECTION 8. MODIFICATIONS

          Section 8.1. Required Modifications. The Lessee, at its own cost and
expense, shall make or cause to be made all Modifications to the Project as are
required (a) by Applicable Law (provided, however, that the Lessee may, in good
faith and by appropriate proceedings, diligently contest the validity or
application of any Applicable Law in any reasonable manner which (i) does not
involve any danger of foreclosure, sale, forfeiture or loss of, or imposition of
a Lien on, the Project or any material part thereof or impair the use, operation
or maintenance of the Project in any material respect, and (ii) could not result
in any criminal liability being incurred by, or could not reasonably be expected
to have any material adverse effect on the interests of, the Equity Investor (or
any Affiliate thereof) or the Owner Lessor, including subjecting the Equity
Investor (or any Affiliate thereof) or the Owner Lessor to regulation as a
public utility under Applicable Law solely as a result of such contest;
provided, that no such contest may extend beyond the expiration or early
termination of this Project Lease) or (b) to maintain in effect any insurance
required to be maintained by the Lessee under any Operative Document
Modifications (each, a "Required Modification"). In connection with the making
of any Required Modification, the Lessee shall procure all consents (including,
to the extent applicable, consents from the Power Purchaser under the Power
Purchase Agreement) and approvals from any Governmental Entity having
jurisdiction.

          Section 8.2. Optional Modifications. The Lessee at any time may, at
its own cost and expense, make or cause or permit to be made any Modification to
the Project as the Lessee considers necessary or desirable in the proper conduct
of its business (any such Modification that is not a Required Modification being
referred to as an "Optional Modification"), provided that the Lessee shall not
make and shall prevent from being made any Optional Modification to the Project
that would (i) decrease by more than a de minimis amount the current or residual
value, utility or remaining useful life of the Project below the current or
residual value, utility or remaining useful life of the Project immediately
prior to such Modification assuming the Project was then in the condition
required to be maintained by the terms of this Project Lease or (ii) cause the
Project to become "limited-use" property, within the meaning of Rev. Proc.
2001-28, 2001-1 C.B. 1156, and no such Optional Modification shall be made
unless (x) the Lessee provides to the Owner Lessor and, so long as the Lien of
the Indenture shall not have been terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture
Trustee a certification from the Geothermal Consultant that such Modification is
not reasonably expected materially and adversely to affect the Owner Lessor's
rights under the Sublease of Resource Sublease or otherwise materially reduce or
impair the Geothermal Resource available to the Lessee pursuant to the Resource
Sublease Partial Assignment for the purpose of satisfying its obligations under
the Power Purchase Agreement, (y) the Lessee shall have received all consents
(including, to the extent applicable, consents from the Power Purchaser under
the Power Purchase Agreement) and approvals from any Governmental Entity having
jurisdiction and (z) such Modification could not reasonably be expected to have
a Material Adverse Effect (collectively, the "Improvement Conditions").

          Section 8.3. Modifications Subject to Head Lease. All (a) Required
Modifications (including Severable Modifications that are Required
Modifications), (b) Nonseverable Modifications and (c) Modifications financed by
the Owner Lessor by an


                                       12



Additional Equity Investment or a Supplemental Financing pursuant to Section
11.1 of the Participation Agreement shall (without adjustment to the Head Lease
Rent (except as set forth in Section 11.2 of the Participation Agreement) or,
except as provided herein or in Section 11.2 of the Participation Agreement,
Periodic Lease Rent, Allocated Rent, Proportional Rent or Renewal Lease Rent)
immediately (i) become subject to the Head Lease and this Project Lease and, so
long as the Lien of the Indenture shall not have been terminated and fully
discharged, the Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest therein shall immediately
become subject to the Lien of the Indenture, and (ii) be deemed part of the
Project for all purposes of this Project Lease and the other Operative
Documents. The Lessee, at its own cost and expense, shall take such steps as the
Owner Lessor and, so long as the Lien of the Indenture shall not have been
terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture Trustee may reasonably require
from time to time to confirm that such Modifications are subject to the Head
Lease and this Project Lease and, so long as the Lien of the Indenture shall not
have been terminated and fully discharged, the Owner Lessor's interest therein
are subject to the Lien of the Indenture. Optional Modifications which are
Severable Modifications and which are not financed by the Owner Lessor by an
Additional Equity Investment or a Supplemental Financing pursuant to Section
11.1 of the Participation Agreement are referred to herein as "Removable
Modifications"). All Modifications other than Removable Modifications shall
become subject to the Head Lease, this Project Lease and the Lien of the
Indenture. The parties agree that the Well Improvements are Nonseverable
Modifications.

          Section 8.4. Purchase of Removable Modifications and Expansion
Project. Unless this Project Lease shall have sooner terminated, not later than
twenty (20) days prior to the Basic Lease Term Expiration Date (or any Renewal
Term then in effect), the Lessee shall notify the Owner Lessor of all Removable
Modifications which have not been removed from the Project. The Owner Lessor
shall have the right to purchase any Removable Modifications made to the Project
including those with respect to the Expansion Project which have not been
removed from the Project. The Owner Lessor may only exercise the purchase option
described in the immediately preceding sentence by irrevocable written notice to
the Lessee. The purchase price for Removable Modifications and the Expansion
Project to be purchased by the Owner Lessor shall be the then Fair Market Sales
Value as determined pursuant to Section 5.2(e). The Lessee may, at the Lessee's
cost and expense, remove any Removable Modifications, including the Expansion
Project that the Owner Lessor has not elected to purchase. The Lessee shall (at
the Lessee's cost and expense) repair any damage to the Project caused by the
removal by the Lessee of any Removable Modification including those with respect
to the Expansion Project. Any Removable Modification to the Project including
those with respect to the Expansion Project which are not removed by the Lessee
at or prior to the expiration or early termination of the Project Lease shall
become subject to the Head Lease (at no cost to the Owner Lessor).

SECTION 9. NET LEASE

     This Project Lease is a "net lease" and the Lessee's obligation to pay all
Rent, including Periodic Lease Rent, Renewal Lease Rent and Supplemental Rent
payable hereunder, (and the accrual of Allocated Rent) shall be absolute and
unconditional under any and all circumstances and shall not be terminated,
extinguished, diminished, lost, setoff (except as expressly provided herein) or
otherwise impaired by any circumstance of any character, including by (i) any
claim, setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which the Lessee
may have against the


                                       13



Owner Lessor, the Equity Investor, the Indenture Trustee, any of their
respective Affiliates or any other Person, including any claim as a result of
any breach by any of said parties of any covenant or provision in this Project
Lease or any other Operative Document, (ii) any lack or invalidity of title or
any defect in the title, condition, design, operation, merchantability or
fitness for use of the Project or any Component or any portion of any thereof,
or any eviction by paramount title or otherwise, or any unavailability of the
Project, the Lessee's interest in the Geothermal Resource, the Project Site, any
Component or any portion of either thereof, any other portion of the Project, or
any part thereof, (iii) any loss, theft or destruction of, or damage to, the
Project or any Component or any portion of any thereof or interruption or
cessation in the use or possession thereof or any part thereof by the Lessee for
any reason whatsoever and of whatever duration, (iv) the condemnation,
requisitioning, expropriation, seizure or other taking of title to or use of the
Project Site, the Project, the Lessee's interest in the Geothermal Resource, any
Component or any portion thereof by any Governmental Entity or otherwise, (v)
the invalidity or unenforceability (or allegation of invalidity or
unenforceability) or lack of due authorization or other infirmity of this
Project Lease or any other Operative Document, (vi) the lack of right, power or
authority of the Owner Lessor to enter into this Project Lease or any other
Operative Document, (vii) any ineligibility of the Project or any Component or
any portion of any thereof for any particular use, whether or not due to any
failure of the Lessee to comply with any Applicable Law, (viii) any event of
"force majeure" or any frustration of purpose, (ix) any legal requirement
similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, any present or future law to the
contrary notwithstanding, (x) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or
similar proceeding by or against the Lessee or any other Person, (xi) any Lien
of any Person with respect to the Project Site, the Project, any Component or
any portion of any thereof or any part thereof, (xii) any prohibition,
limitation or restriction of Lessee's use of all or any part of the Project, the
Project Site or any portion thereof or any interest therein or the interference
with such use by any Person, (xiii) the termination or loss of the Project Site
or any portion thereof, any other lease, sublease, right-of-way, easement or
other interest in personal or real property upon or to which any portion of the
Project is located, attached or appurtenant or in connection with which any
portion of the Project is used or otherwise affects or may affect the Project or
any right thereto, (xiv) any defect in the title to, or the existence of any
Lien with respect to the Project or any act of circumstances that may constitute
an eviction or constructive eviction, failure of consideration or commercial
frustration of purpose, (xv) any breach, default or misrepresentation by Owner
Lessor or any other Person under this Project Lease or any of the other
Operative Documents, (xvi) any failure, omission or delay on the part of any
Person to exercise any right, power or remedy under any Operative Document,
(xvii) the taking or omission of any of the actions referred to in any of the
Operative Documents or (xviii) any other cause, whether similar or dissimilar to
the foregoing, any present or future law notwithstanding; except as expressly
set forth herein or in any other Operative Document, it being the intention of
the parties hereto that all Rent, including all Periodic Lease Rent, Renewal
Lease Rent and Supplemental Rent payable hereunder, shall continue to be payable
by the Lessee hereunder, and Allocated Rent shall continue to accrue in each
case and in all events in the manner and at times provided for herein. Such
Rent, including Periodic Lease Rent or Renewal Lease Rent and Supplemental Lease
Rent shall not be subject to any abatement and the payments thereof shall not be
subject to any setoff or reduction for any reason whatsoever, including any
present or future claims of the Lessee or any other Person against the Owner
Lessor or any other Person under this Project Lease or otherwise. To the extent
permitted by Applicable Law, the Lessee hereby waives any and all rights which
it may


                                       14



now have or which at any time hereafter may be conferred upon it, by
statute or otherwise, to terminate, cancel, quit or surrender this Project Lease
except in accordance with Section 10, 13, 14 or 22. If for any reason whatsoever
this Project Lease shall be terminated in whole or in part by operation of law
or otherwise, except as specifically provided herein, the Lessee nonetheless
agrees, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, to pay to the Owner Lessor an
amount equal to each installment of Periodic Lease Rent (or, in connection with
a termination of a Renewal Lease Term, Renewal Lease Rent) and all Supplemental
Lease Rent due and owing, at the time such payment would have become due and
payable in accordance with the terms hereof had this Project Lease not been so
terminated. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to waive any claim which
the Lessee might have under any of the Operative Documents or otherwise or to
limit the right of the Lessee to make any claim it might have against the Owner
Lessor or any other Person or to pursue such claim in such manner as the Lessee
shall deem appropriate.

SECTION 10. EVENTS OF LOSS

          Section 10.1. Occurrence of Events of Loss. (a) The Owner Lessor will
promptly notify, or will cause the Equity Investor to promptly notify, the
Lessee upon obtaining Actual Knowledge of any event that upon election of the
Equity Investor would result in a Regulatory Event of Loss; provided that the
failure to deliver such notice shall not result in any liability to the Owner
Lessor or the Equity Investor. If an Event of Loss described in clause (a) or
(b) of the definition of such term shall occur or an event shall occur which
could become an Event of Loss as described in clause (c) of such term, then the
Lessee shall promptly notify the Owner Lessor and, so long as the Lien of the
Indenture shall not have been terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture
Trustee of the occurrence thereof. In the case of an Event of Loss described in
clause (a) or (b) of the definition thereof, the Lessee may elect to rebuild or
replace the damaged Project, provided (i) no Lease Default or Lease Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing (other than any Lease Default or Lease
Event of Default that would be cured by such rebuilding), (ii) notice of such
election has been given to the Owner Lessor and, so long as the Lien of the
Indenture shall not have been terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture
Trustee within 30 days of the date of the occurrence of the Event of Loss and
(iii) the conditions set forth in Section 10.3(a) shall have been satisfied.

     If the Lessee fails to duly satisfy the conditions set forth in Section
10.3(a), the Lessee will be deemed to have made the election to terminate this
Project Lease pursuant to Section 10.1(b) as of the end of the 30 day period
referred to in the previous paragraph. If the Lessee satisfies the conditions in
Section 10.3(a), but fails to satisfy the conditions in Section 10.3(b), (c) or
(d), the Lessee will be deemed to have elected the termination option as of the
last day of the month in which the Owner Lessor has given notice of such
failure.

          (b) If (i) an Event of Loss described in clause (a) or (b) of the
definition of such term shall have occurred and the Lessee shall have elected
(or shall be deemed to have elected) not to rebuild or replace the Project
pursuant to Section 10.1(a) hereof, or (ii) an Event of Loss described in clause
(c) of the definition of Event of Loss shall occur or (iii) a Regulatory Event
of Loss shall occur, then, (x) in the case of clause (i) above, on the next
Termination Date occurring at least 30 days after such election or deemed
election or (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, on the Termination Date next
occurring (1) at least six months after the occurrence of


                                       15



such Event of Loss or (2) if earlier, at least 30 days after receipt of Casualty
Insurance Proceeds or Requisition Proceeds in respect of such Event of Loss, or
(z) in the case of clause (iii) above, on the Termination Date next occurring at
least three months after the occurrence of such Regulatory Event of Loss the
Lessee shall terminate this Project Lease. In connection with any such
termination arising as a result of an Event of Loss described in clause (a), (b)
or (c) of the definition thereof, if the Lessee shall have elected not to
rebuild or replace the Project, the Owner Lessor may elect to retain the Project
and pay the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the Senior
Notes; provided however, that if the Owner Lessor elects to retain the Project
it shall notify the Lessee at least 30 days prior to such Termination Date and
shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee a letter of credit of an Acceptable
Letter of Credit Provider with a maximum drawing amount equal to not less than
the principal and interest which would be payable on the Senior Notes. If the
Owner Lessor elects to retain the Project as provided above, then the Lessee
shall, on such Termination Date, pay to the Owner Lessor (A) all amounts of any
unpaid Periodic Lease Rent and Renewal Lease Rent due on or before such
Termination Date, plus (B) all amounts of Supplemental Lease Rent (including
reasonable documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection
with such Event of Loss by the Owner Lessor, the Equity Investor, and the
Indenture Trustee) due and payable on or before such Termination Date. If the
Owner Lessor fails to elect to retain the Project as provided above, Lessee
shall offer (and unless the Lessor elects to retain the Project, such offer
shall be deemed accepted) to purchase, subject to the rights of any insurers
under policies maintained by the Lessee, on such Termination Date the Owner
Lessor's Leasehold Interest by paying or causing to be paid (1) the Termination
Value determined as of such Termination Date, plus (2) any unpaid Periodic Lease
Rent and Renewal Lease Rent due on or before such Termination Date, plus (3) all
other Supplemental Lease Rent (including reasonable documented out-of-pocket
costs and expenses incurred in connection with such Event of Loss by the Owner
Lessor, the Equity Investor and the Indenture Trustee) due and payable on or
prior to such Termination Date. Upon the payment of all sums required to be paid
pursuant to this Section 10.1(b), (i) Allocated Rent shall cease to accrue and
the obligation to pay Periodic Lease Rent or Renewal Lease Rent shall cease,
(ii) the Lessee shall cease to have any other liability to the Owner Lessor, the
Equity Investor, or the Indenture Trustee except for Supplemental Lease Rent and
other obligations (including those under Sections 9.1 and 9.2 of the
Participation Agreement and the Tax Indemnity Agreement) surviving pursuant to
the express terms of any Operative Document, (iii) the Owner Lessor shall pay
the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the Senior Notes,
(iv) this Project Lease, the Head Lease, the Sublease of the Power Plant
Sublease and the Real Estate Documents related thereto shall terminate, (v) the
Owner Lessor shall, at the Lessee's cost and expense, execute and deliver to the
Lessee a release and termination of this Project Lease, the Head Lease, the
Sublease of the Power Plant Sublease and the Real Estate Documents related
thereto, (vi) the Owner Lessor shall transfer (by an appropriate instrument of
transfer in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Owner Lessor and
prepared by and at the expense of the Lessee) the Owner Lessor's Leasehold
Interest to the Lessee on an "as is, where is" and "with all faults" basis,
without representations or warranties other than a warranty as to the absence of
Owner Lessor's Liens and a warranty of the Equity Investor as to the absence of
Equity Investor's Liens and (vii) the Owner Lessor shall use all reasonable
efforts to cause the Indenture Trustee to discharge the Lien of the Indenture
and shall execute and deliver appropriate releases and other documents or
instruments necessary or desirable to effect the foregoing, all to be prepared,
filed and recorded (as appropriate) at the cost and expense of the Lessee.

          at any time by the Lessee shall be promptly paid to the Owner Lessor
          or if the Lien of the Indenture shall not have been terminated and
          fully discharged, to or at the direction of the Indenture Trustee, for
          application pursuant to the following provisions of this Section 10.2:

                    (A) so much of such payments as shall not exceed the Rent
               required to be paid by the Lessee pursuant to Section 10.1(b)
               shall be applied in reduction of the Lessee's obligation to pay
               such amount if not already paid by the Lessee or, if already paid
               by the Lessee, shall, so long as no Lease Default or Lease Event
               of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, be applied to
               reimburse the Lessee for its payment of the Termination Value
               portion of such amount; and

                    (B) the balance, if any, of such payments remaining
               thereafter shall be apportioned between the Owner Lessor and the
               Lessee as their interests may appear.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Lessee shall have decided to rebuild
or replace the Project pursuant to Section 10.1(a), any Casualty Insurance

conditions:

               (i) receipt by the Equity Investor and, so long as the Lien of
          the Indenture shall not have been terminated and fully discharged, the
          Indenture Trustee, on or prior to the date on which the election to
          rebuild has been delivered pursuant to the third sentence of Section
          10.1(a), of: (A) a report of the Engineering Consultant


                                       17



          or another independent engineer, such other engineer and such report
          to be satisfactory to the Equity Investor and, so long as the Lien of
          the Indenture has not been terminated and fully discharged, the
          Indenture Trustee (and if the Lessee's interest in the Geothermal
          Resource is affected by such Event of Loss a report of the Geothermal
          Consultant or another independent geothermal consultant, such other
          geothermal consultant and such report to be satisfactory to the Equity
          Investor and, so long as the Lien of the Indenture shall not have been
          terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture Trustee) to the effect
          that (1) the rebuilding or replacement of the Project is
          technologically feasible and economically viable with the Casualty
          Insurance Proceeds paid or payable as a result of such damage to the

          terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture Trustee), the
          availability of such funds as required to be guaranteed by an
          Acceptable Letter of Credit Provider whose right to reimbursement
          shall be limited to funds of the Lessee which are not subject to the

          expect that such rebuilding or replacement can be completed within
          eighteen months from the date on which the Event of Loss occurred (the
          "Rebuilding Measuring Date") but, in any event, no later than the last
          day of the Project Lease Term unless Section 15.6 shall be applicable
          and (3) it is reasonable to assume that the total net energy produced
          by the Project at 12 and 18 months, respectively, after the Rebuilding
          Measuring Date is equal to 40% and 100%, respectively, of the total
          net energy produced by the Project in the last full calendar year
          immediately preceding the Event of Loss, and (B) an appraisal of an
          appraiser selected by the Lessee, such appraiser and such appraisal to
          be reasonably acceptable to the Equity Investor and, so long as the

          discharged, the Indenture Trustee, to the effect that the Project,
          after completion of the rebuilding or replacement, will have at least
          the same current and residual value, utility and remaining useful life
          as the Project immediately prior to the Event of Loss (assuming the
          Project was then in the condition required by the terms of this
          Project Lease), and (C) an Officer's Certificate of the Lessee, which
          shall be reasonably satisfactory as to form and substance to the
          Equity Investor and, so long as the Lien of the Indenture shall not
          have been terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture Trustee, to
          the effect that (1) no Lease Default or Lease Event of Default shall
          have occurred and be continuing, (2) the Lessee has adequate financial
          resources, from insurance proceeds or otherwise, to complete such
          rebuilding or replacement and to perform its other obligations under
          the Operative Documents, including the payment of Rent, (3) the Power
          Purchase Agreement will stay in effect during the period of rebuilding
          or replacement, (4) the Lease Rent Coverage Ratio during the period of
          rebuilding or replacement will be not less than 1.00 to 1.00 (taking
          into account all proceeds received from Business Interruption
          insurance) and (5) such rebuilding will not result in the Project
          being "limited use" property within the meaning of Rev. Proc. 2001-28,
          2001-1 C.B. 1156.

               (ii) receipt by the Equity Investor on or prior to the date on
          which the election to rebuild or replace has been delivered pursuant
          to the third sentence of


                                       18



          Section 10.1(a), of (A) a legal opinion of independent tax counsel
          selected by the Equity Investor and reasonably satisfactory to the
          Lessee to the effect that such rebuilding or replacement will not
          result in any incremental tax risks to the Equity Investor, and (B) an
          indemnity (with verification, tax savings, and contest rights
          provisions substantially the same as those set forth in the Tax
          Indemnity Agreement) against any tax risks resulting from the rebuild
          or replacement of the Project in form and substance reasonably
          satisfactory to the Equity Investor from the Lessee;

               (iii) no material adverse accounting effect on the Equity
          Investor shall be caused by such rebuilding or replacement; and

               (iv) the Lessee shall have demonstrated to the reasonable
          satisfaction of the Owner Lessor and, so long as the Lien of the
          Indenture shall not have been terminated and fully discharged, the
          Indenture Trustee (A) the absence of any Lease Default or Lease Event
          of Default (other than any Lease Default or Lease Event of Default
          that would be cured by such rebuilding), and (B) that all Governmental
          Approvals required in connection with the work done or proposed to be
          done have been obtained or can reasonably be expected to be obtained
          on or prior to the date required in connection therewith.

          (b) If the conditions to the rebuilding or replacement of the Project
set forth in paragraph (a) of this Section 10.3 have been fulfilled, the Lessee
shall cause the rebuilding or replacement to commence as soon as practicable,
and in any event within twelve (12) weeks of the Rebuilding Measuring Date and
will cause work on such rebuilding or replacement to proceed diligently
thereafter. As the rebuilding or replacement of the Project progresses, title to
the rebuilt or replacement Project shall vest in the Lessee and become subject
to the Head Lease and such interest of the Owner Lessor shall become subject to
this Project Lease and, so long as the Lien of the Indenture shall not have been
terminated and fully discharged, the Lien of the Indenture automatically without
any further act by any Person.

          (c) Casualty Insurance Proceeds shall be released to pay costs of
rebuilding or replacement only if accompanied by an Officer's Certificate of the
Lessee which demonstrates that the rebuilding or replacement is proceeding in a
manner consistent with the requirements of Section 10.3(a), including in
conformity with the construction schedule described in the report of the
Engineering Consultant delivered pursuant thereto.

          (d) On the date of the completion of such rebuilding or replacement of
the Project which shall occur within eighteen (18) months of the Rebuilding
Measuring Date (the "Rebuilding Closing Date") the following documents shall be
duly authorized, executed and delivered and, if appropriate, filed for
recordation by the respective party or parties thereto and shall be in full
force and effect, and an executed counterpart of each thereto shall be delivered
to the Owner Lessor and, so long as the Lien of the Indenture shall not have
been terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture Trustee:

          supplements to the Head Lease and this Project Lease or other
          documents required by clause (i) above constitute effective
          instruments for subjecting such rebuilt or replacement facility to the
          Head Lease and this Project Lease, (B) the supplements to the
          Indenture required by clause (ii) above, if any, constitute effective
          instruments for subjecting such rebuilt or replacement facility to the
          Lien of the Indenture, and (C) all filings and other action necessary
          to perfect and protect the Owner Lessor's and, if applicable, the
          Indenture Trustee's interest in such rebuilt or replacement facility
          have been accomplished;

               (v) an appraisal by an Independent Appraiser, certifying that the
          rebuilt or replacement facility has a current and residual value,
          remaining useful life and utility at least equal to the current and
          residual value, remaining useful life and utility that the Project
          would have had on the Rebuilding Closing Date had such Event of Loss
          not occurred (assuming the Project would then be in the condition and
          repair required to be maintained by the terms of this Project Lease)
          and the Project is not "limited-use" property within the meaning of
          Rev. Proc. 2001-28, 2001-1 C.B. 1156;

          required by this Project Lease; and

               (vii) satisfactory evidence as to the compliance with Section 11
          of this Project Lease with respect to the rebuilt or replacement
          facility.

          (e) Whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Section 10.3
are consummated, the Lessee agrees to pay or reimburse, on an After-Tax Basis,
any costs or expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred by

in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Section 10.3.

          Section 10.4. Application of Payments Not Relating to an Event of
Loss.

          (a) In the event that during the Project Lease Term (i) the use of all
or any portion of the Project or the Lessee's interest in the Geothermal
Resource is subject to a seizure,


                                       20



condemnation, confiscation or the taking of or requisition of title to or use
thereof by any Governmental Entity, or (ii) the Lessee is prevented from
operating or maintaining all or any portion of the Project, the Lessee's
interest in the Geothermal Resource or the Project Site as a result of a
seizure, condemnation, confiscation or the taking of or requisition of title to
or use thereof by any Governmental Entity, which in either case does not
constitute an Event of Loss, the Lessee's obligation to pay all installments of
Periodic Lease Rent and Renewal Lease Rent and the accrual of Allocated Rent
shall continue for the duration of such requisitioning or taking. The Lessee
shall be entitled to receive and retain for its own account all Requisition
Proceeds payable for any such period by such Governmental Entity as compensation
for such requisition or taking of possession; provided that such payments shall
be paid to the Depositary Bank, deposited into the Loss Proceeds Account and
applied in accordance with the terms of the Depositary Agreement.

          (b) Any Casualty Insurance Proceeds with respect to the Project
received at any time by the Owner Lessor, the Indenture Trustee or the Lessee
under any of the insurance policies required to be maintained by the Lessee
under Section 11 as a result of any Partial Casualty shall be paid to the
Depositary Bank, deposited into the Loss Proceeds Account and applied in
accordance with the terms of the Depositary Agreement.

          Section 10.5. Partial Casualties.

          (a) Upon the occurrence of any Partial Casualty (other than a
Significant Partial Casualty), the Lessee (unless the Casualty Insurance
Proceeds received with respect to such Partial Casualty is less than $2,500,000,
the obligations of HELCO under the PPA are not affected as a result of any
decision not to cause such rebuilding or replacement to occur in accordance with
this Section 10.5(a) and such Partial Casualty does not (i) decrease by more
than a de minimis amount the current or residual value, remaining useful life or
utility of the Project below the current or residual value, the remaining useful
life or the utility thereof immediately prior to such Partial Casualty (assuming
the Project was then in the condition required to be maintained by the terms of
this Project Lease), (ii) cause the Project to become "limited-use" property
within the meaning of Rev. Proc. 2001-28, 2001-1 C.B. 1156 or (iii) result in a
Default or an Event of Default under any applicable term or provision of any
Operative Document) shall cause the rebuilding or replacement of the Project to
commence as soon as practicable, and in any event within twelve (12) months of
the occurrence of the event that caused such Partial Casualty and will cause
work on such rebuilding or replacement to proceed diligently thereafter. As the
rebuilding or replacement of the project progresses, (i) all such rebuilt or
replacement portions of Project shall become subject to the Head Lease and this
Project Lease, and (ii) so long as the Lien of the Indenture shall not have been
terminated and fully discharged, the Owner Lessor's interest therein shall
become subject to the Lien of the Indenture, automatically without any further
act by any Person. A Partial Casualty which constitutes a Significant Partial
Casualty shall be treated for purposes of this Project Lease as an Event of Loss
described in clauses (a) and (b) of the definition of such term, and, if the
Lessee chooses to rebuild or replace the Project, the provisions of Section 10.3
(a)(i) and (b) shall apply to such Partial Casualty. If the Lessee has failed to
satisfy such provisions of Section 10.3 with respect to a Significant Partial
Casualty, then such Partial Casualty shall be considered an Event of Loss for
purposes hereof, and the provisions of Section 10.1(b) shall apply.


                                       21



          (b) Upon the occurrence of a Partial Casualty (other than a
Significant Partial Casualty), the Lessee shall (i) cause the rebuilding or
replacement of the Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest to be completed so that the
Project is in as good operating condition as the Project was immediately prior
to such Partial Casualty, assuming that the Project was maintained in accordance
with this Project Lease, (ii) cause such rebuilding or replacement to be
performed in a manner which does not (A) decrease by more than a de minimis
amount the current or residual value, remaining useful life or utility of the
Project below the current or residual value, the remaining useful life or the
utility thereof immediately prior to such replacement (assuming the Project was
then in the condition required to be maintained by the terms of this Project
Lease) or (B) cause the Project to become "limited-use" property within the
meaning of Rev. Proc. 2001-28, 2001-1 C.B. 1156 and (iii) cause the rebuilding
or replacement of the Project to be conducted and completed so as not to cause
the Lessee or the Owner Lessor to be in default under any applicable term or
provision of any Operative Document.

SECTION 11. INSURANCE

     The Lessee will maintain (or cause to be maintained) the insurance required
to be maintained pursuant to Schedule 1 to this Project Lease.

SECTION 12. INSPECTION

     During the Project Lease Term, each of the Equity Investor, the Owner
Lessor, and, so long as the Lien of the Indenture shall not have been terminated
and fully discharged, the Indenture Trustee and each of their representatives
may, during normal business hours, on reasonable notice to the Lessee, for a
reasonable period of time in light of the circumstances and at their own risk
and expense (except, at the expense but not the risk, of the Lessee when a
Significant Lease Default or a Lease Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing), inspect the Project and the records with respect to the operations
and maintenance thereof, in the Lessee's custody or to which the Lessee has
access so long as the Lessee has the opportunity to be present. Any such
inspection will not unreasonably disturb or interfere with the normal operation
or maintenance of the Project or the conduct by the Lessee of its business and
will be in accordance with the Lessee's safety and insurance programs. In no
event shall the Owner Lessor, the Equity Investor or the Indenture Trustee (or,
if applicable, any Noteholder) have any duty or obligation to make any such
inspection and such Persons shall not incur any liability or obligation by
reason of not making any such inspection.

SECTION 13. TERMINATION OPTION FOR BURDENSOME EVENTS

          Section 13.1. Election to Terminate. So long as no Significant Lease
Default or Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the
Lessee shall have the right to, at its option, upon giving prior written notice
to the Owner Lessor and, so long as the Lien of the Indenture shall have been
terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture Trustee no later than 12 months
after the date the Lessee has Actual Knowledge of the occurrence of an event set
forth in clause (a) or (b) below (any such notice, a "Burdensome Termination
Notice"), terminate this Project Lease in whole on the Termination Date
specified in such notice (the "Burdensome Termination Date") (which shall be a
date occurring not more than 90 days after the date of such


                                       22



notice or such longer period (not to exceed twelve (12) months) as may be
required to effect the consummation of such termination) if:

          (a) as a result of a change in Applicable Law, it shall have become
illegal for the Lessee to continue this Project Lease or for the Lessee to make
payments under this Project Lease or the other Operative Documents, and the
transactions contemplated by the Operative Documents cannot be restructured to
comply with such change in Applicable Law in a manner reasonably acceptable to
the Lessee, the Equity Investor, the Owner Lessor, and, so long as the Lien of
the Indenture shall not have been terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture
Trustee; or

          (b) one or more events outside the control of the Lessee or any
Affiliate thereof shall have occurred that will, or can reasonably be expected
to, give rise to an obligation by the Lessee to incur an indemnity obligation
pursuant to the Tax Indemnity Agreement or Section 9.1 or 9.2 of the
Participation Agreement (excluding any such indemnity in respect of Hawaii
General Excise Taxes on Periodic Lease Rent at the rate thereof in effect of the
Closing Date); provided, that (i) such indemnity (and the underlying cost or
Tax) can be avoided in whole or in part if this Project Lease is terminated and
the Owner Lessor sells the Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest and (ii) the amount
of such avoided payments would exceed (on a present value basis, discounted at
the Discount Rate to the Burdensome Termination Date, compounded on an annual
basis to the Burdensome Termination Date) 2.5% of the Head Lease Rent, and
provided, further, that no such termination option shall exist if the applicable
indemnitee shall waive its right to, or the Equity Investor shall arrange, in
its sole discretion, for payment of (without reimbursement by the Lessee or any
Affiliate thereof), amounts of indemnification payments under the Tax Indemnity
Agreement or Section 9.1 or 9.2 of the Participation Agreement in excess of such
amount as to cause such avoided payments, computed in accordance with the
preceding proviso, not to exceed 2.5% of the Head Lease Rent; or

No termination of this Project Lease pursuant to this Section 13.1 shall become
effective unless the conditions set forth in Section 13.3 are satisfied. In
connection with any termination by the Lessee of the Project Lease pursuant to
this Section 13.1, prior to the date on which notice of prepayment of Senior
Notes has become irrevocable in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, the
Lessee shall provide reasonable assurances to the Indenture Trustee of its
ability to pay the principal, Make Whole Premium, if any, and interest on the
Senior Notes in full on the Burdensome Termination Date. If the Lessee does not
give notice of its exercise of the termination option under this Section 13.1
within twelve (12) months of the date the Lessee receives notice or first has
Actual Knowledge of an event or condition described above, the Lessee will lose
its right to terminate this Project Lease pursuant to this Section 13.1 as a
result of such event or condition.

          Section 13.2. Solicitation of Offers; Payments Upon Termination. (a)
Upon receipt of a termination notice from the Lessee pursuant to Section 13.1,
the Owner Lessor may, but shall be under no obligation to, sell the Owner
Lessor's Leasehold Interest and, at the request of the Owner Lessor, the Lessee
will, as non-exclusive agent for the Owner Lessor, use commercially reasonable
efforts to obtain cash bids for the Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest. In
connection with such termination, the Lessee may, but shall be under no
obligation to, make


                                       23



an offer to purchase the Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest. Only bona fide bids,
whether from the Lessee or a third party, to purchase the Owner Lessor's
Leasehold Interest for cash on the Burdensome Termination Date on an "as is,
where is" and "with all faults" basis without any representation, other than by
the Owner Lessor as to the absence of Owner Lessor's Liens and a warranty of the
Equity Investor as to the absence of Equity Investor's Liens, shall be
"Qualifying Cash Bids". All the proceeds of any such sale shall be for the
account of the Owner Lessor; provided that so long as the Lien of the Indenture
shall not have been terminated and fully discharged, the proceeds of such sale
shall be paid directly to or at the direction of the Indenture Trustee. The
Owner Lessor shall be under no obligation to accept any Qualifying Cash Bid. If
the Owner Lessor receives any Qualifying Cash Bids, the Owner Lessor shall be
deemed to have accepted the highest such bid received by 10 Business Days prior
to the Burdensome Termination Date unless the Owner Lessor rejects such bid and
elects to retain the Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest in writing prior to the
earlier of (x) the expiration date of such bid and (y) the date at least 45 days
prior to the Burdensome Termination Date.

          (b) If the Owner Lessor receives any Qualifying Cash Bid (regardless
of whether or not such Qualifying Cash Bid is accepted by the Owner Lessor) on
the Burdensome Termination Date, the Lessee shall pay the Owner Lessor (i) the
amount, if any, by which the Termination Value determined as of the Burdensome
Termination Date exceeds the sales price of the highest Qualifying Cash Bid
actually received by the Owner Lessor, whether from the Lessee or a third party
(net of the fees, commissions and costs of any broker engaged by the Lessee or
any Affiliate thereof), plus (ii) all other amounts due and payable under
clauses (a), (b) and (c) of Section 13.3; provided that so long as the Lien of
the Indenture shall not have been terminated and fully discharged, such amounts
shall be paid directly to or at the direction of the Indenture Trustee.

          (c) If no Qualifying Cash Bids are received by the Termination Date or
if a Qualifying Cash Bid is accepted (or deemed accepted) by the Owner Lessor
but does not, other than as a result of the Owner Lessor's failure to transfer
the Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest free and clear of Owner Lessor's Liens or
the Equity Investor's failure to provide a warranty as to the absence of Equity
Investor's Liens, result in a sale of the Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest, the
Owner Lessor may elect in writing to retain the Owner Lessor's Leasehold
Interest (and to forego its right to receive payment of Termination Value) and
require the Lessee to pay to the Owner Lessor on the Burdensome Termination Date
all amounts due and payable under clauses (a), (b) and (c) of Section 13.3 (but
not Termination Value); provided, however, that the Owner Lessor may not elect
to retain the Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest unless it shall provide to the
Indenture Trustee an irrevocable commitment to pay, and reasonable assurances of
its ability to pay, the principal, premium and interest on the Senior Notes in
full on the Burdensome Termination Date. In the event the Owner Lessor does not
elect to retain the Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest, the Lessee may, in its
sole discretion, (except as provided in the last sentence of this last paragraph
(c)), (i) withdraw its Burdensome Termination Notice (provided such withdrawal
is prior to the date on which the notice to prepay Senior Notes is irrevocable
in accordance with the terms of the Indenture), in which event this Project
Lease shall continue, any notice of prepayment of Senior Notes pursuant to the
Indenture shall be withdrawn and the Lessee shall pay on an After-Tax Basis all
reasonable, documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Owner Lessor, the
Equity Investor and the Indenture Trustee in connection with


                                       24



the giving (and subsequent withdrawal) of the Burdensome Termination Notice, or
(ii) as non-exclusive agent for the Owner Lessor, use commercially reasonable
efforts to sell the Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest, in which case the Lessee
shall be required to pay the Termination Value determined as of the Burdensome
Termination Date plus all amounts due and payable under clauses (a), (b) and (c)
of Section 13.3. If the Lessee does not withdraw its Burdensome Termination
Notice, the Lessee may, but shall be under no obligation to, make an offer (but
will not have the right) to purchase the Project for scrap. If at least one
Qualifying Cash Bid is received and the Owner Lessor does not elect to retain
the Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest, the Owner Lessor shall sell the Owner
Lessor's Leasehold Interest to the party that submitted the highest Qualifying
Cash Bid on an "as is, where is" and "with all faults" basis, without
representations or warranties other than a warranty as to the absence of Owner
Lessor's Liens and a warranty of the Equity Investor as to the absence of Equity
Investor's Liens. The Lessee shall pay on an After-Tax Basis all reasonable
documented out-of-pocket expenses of the Owner Lessor, the Equity Investor, the
Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders in connection with such sale, and the
Owner Lessor shall pay the net cash proceeds of the sale to the Lessee to the
extent Lessee has paid Termination Value and the amounts under clauses (a), (b)
and (c) of Section 13.3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a notice to prepay
Senior Notes has been given in response to a Burdensome Termination Notice, and
such prepayment notice has become irrevocable in accordance with the terms of
the Indenture, the Lessee shall make the election described in clause (ii) above
and, if no Qualifying Cash Bids are received, offer to (but will not have the
right) purchase the Project for scrap on the Burdensome Termination Date.

          Section 13.3. Procedure for Exercise of Termination Option. If the
Lessee shall have exercised its option to terminate this Project Lease under
Section 13.1, on the Burdensome Termination Date specified in the Burdensome
Termination Notice, the Lessee shall pay to the Owner Lessor (a) all
Supplemental Lease Rent (including all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and
expenses of the Owner Lessor, the Equity Investor, the Indenture Trustee and the
Noteholders) due and payable on or prior to the Burdensome Termination Date, (b)
any unpaid Periodic Lease Rent and Renewal Lease Rent due on or before such
Burdensome Termination Date and (c) any premium, including Make Whole Premium,
due on the Senior Notes being prepaid pursuant to this Section 13. All Rent
payments, including payments of Make Whole Premium, under Section 13.2 and this
Section 13.3 shall, so long as the Lien of Indenture shall not have been
terminated and fully discharged be made to or at the direction of the Indenture
Trustee. So long as the Lessee shall not have withdrawn its Burdensome
Termination Notice pursuant to Section 13.2(c)(i), upon payment of all sums
specified in Section 13.2 and this Section 13.3, (i) Allocated Rent shall cease
to accrue and the obligation to pay Periodic Lease Rent or Renewal Lease Rent
shall cease, (ii) the Lessee shall cease to have any liability to the Owner
Lessor, the Equity Investor or the Indenture Trustee, except for Supplemental
Lease Rent and other obligations (including those under Sections 9.1 and 9.2 of
the Participation Agreement and the Tax Indemnity Agreement) surviving pursuant
to the express terms of any Operative Document, (iii) unless the Lessee assumes
the Senior Notes and the obligations and liabilities of the Owner Lessor under
the Indenture, the Owner Lessor shall pay the outstanding principal and accrued
and unpaid interest and Make Whole Premium, if any, on the Senior Notes, (iv)
this Project Lease, the Head Lease (unless the Owner Lessor elects to retain
Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest) and the Sublease of the Power Plant Sublease
shall terminate, (v) the Owner Lessor shall, at the Lessee's cost and expense,
execute and deliver to the Lessee a release and


                                       25



termination of this Project Lease, the Head Lease (unless the Owner Lessor
elects to retain the Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest) and the Sublease of the
Power Plant Sublease, (vi) unless the Lessee assumes the Senior Notes and the
obligations and liabilities of the Owner Lessor under the Indenture or purchases
the Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest in accordance with Section 13.1, the
Lessee will return the Project to the Owner Lessor in accordance with Section 5,
(vii) in connection with any sale of Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest pursuant
to Section 13.2, such sale shall be made subject to the Lessee's rights to
remove Severable Modifications as permitted in Section 8.4 and the Owner Lessor
shall (unless the Owner Lessor elects to retain the Owner Lessor's Leasehold
Interest) transfer (by an appropriate instrument of transfer in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Owner Lessor and prepared by and at the
expense of the Lessee) the Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest to the purchaser
pursuant to this Section 13.3 on an "as is, where is" and "with all faults"
basis, without representations or warranties other than a warranty as to the
absence of Owner Lessor's Liens and a warranty of the Equity Investor as to the
absence of Equity Investor's Liens, and (viii) the Owner Lessor shall use all
reasonable efforts to cause the Indenture Trustee to discharge the Lien of the
Indenture, unless the Lessee assumes the Senior Notes and the obligations and
liabilities of the Owner Lessor under the Indenture, and shall execute and
deliver appropriate releases and other documents or instruments necessary or
desirable to effect the foregoing, all to be prepared, filed and recorded (as
appropriate) at the cost and expense of the Lessee. It shall be a condition of
the termination of this Project Lease pursuant to this Section 13 that the
Lessee shall pay all amounts it is obligated to pay under Section 13.2 and this
Section 13.3. If the Lessee fails to consummate the termination option under
this Section 13 after giving notice of its intention to do so, (i) this Project
Lease shall continue, (ii) such failure to consummate shall not constitute a
Lease Default, and (iii) unless such failure is a consequence of a failure of
either the Owner Lessor or the Equity Investor to fulfill its obligations under
this Section 13, the Lessee will lose its right to terminate this Project Lease
pursuant to this Section 13 as a result of the particular event or condition
described in Section 13.1 (a) or (b) then giving rise to the option to terminate
this Project Lease under Section 13.1 during the remainder of the Project Lease
Term, provided that if the notice to prepay Senior Notes given as a result of
the Burdensome Termination Notice has become irrevocable in accordance with the
terms of the Indenture, the Lessee shall make a Supplemental Rent Payment (on an
After-Tax Basis to the Owner Lessor and the Equity Investor) equal to the
principal of, and interest and Make-Whole Premium, if any, on the Senior Notes
which are due and payable on the Burdensome Termination Date. Whether or not
this Project Lease is terminated, the Lessee shall in any event pay all
reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Owner Lessor, the Equity
Investor, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders in connection with the
exercise by the Lessee of its right to terminate this Project Lease under this
Section 13.

SECTION 14. TERMINATION FOR OBSOLESCENCE

          Section 14.1. Termination. Upon at least six month's prior written
notice to the Owner Lessor, the Equity Investor and, so long as the Lien of the
Indenture has not been terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture Trustee
(which notice shall be accompanied by an Officer's Certificate setting forth in
reasonable detail the basis on which it is exercising this termination option),
the Lessee shall have the option, so long as no Significant Lease Default or
Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the proposed
Obsolescence Termination Date, to terminate this Project Lease on any
Termination Date occurring on or after


                                       26



the seventh anniversary of the Closing Date (the date of termination selected by
the Lessee being the "Obsolescence Termination Date") on the terms and
conditions set forth in this Section 14 if the Lessee determines as certified by
either of the Lessee's partners that the Project is economically or
technologically obsolete or surplus to its needs or is no longer useful in its
trade or business (a) as a result of a change in Applicable Law, regulation or
tariff of general application, or imposition by any Governmental Entity having
or claiming jurisdiction over the Lessee or the Project of any conditions or
requirements (including requiring significant capital improvement to the
Project) upon the availability, continued effectiveness or renewal of any
license or permit required for the ownership or operation of the Project or (b)
for any other reason. No termination of this Project Lease pursuant to this
Section 14.1 shall become effective unless the conditions set forth in Section
14.4 hereof are satisfied.

          Section 14.2. Solicitation of Offers. If the Lessee shall give the
Owner Lessor notice pursuant to Section 14.1 and the Owner Lessor shall not have
elected to retain the Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest pursuant to Section 14.3
hereof, the Lessee shall, as non-exclusive agent for the Owner Lessor, use its
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain bids for the sale of and, subject to
Section 14.4 hereof, sell such Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest on the
Obsolescence Termination Date, and all of the proceeds of such sale will be for
the account of the Owner Lessor; provided that so long as the Lien of the
Indenture shall not have been terminated and fully discharged, the proceeds of
such sale shall be paid directly to or at the direction of the Indenture
Trustee. The Owner Lessor shall also have the right, but no obligation, to
obtain bids for the sale of such Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest either
directly or through agents other than the Lessee. At least 90 days prior to the
Obsolescence Termination Date the Lessee shall certify to the Owner Lessor and
the Indenture Trustee each bid or offer, the amount and terms thereof and the
name and address of the party (which shall not be the Lessee, any Affiliate of
the Lessee or any third party with whom the Lessee or an Affiliate of the Lessee
has an arrangement to use or operate the Project to generate power for the
benefit of the Lessee or such Affiliate after the termination of this Project
Lease) submitting such bid or offer.

          Section 14.3. Right of Owner Lessor to Retain the Owner Lessor's
Leasehold Interest. If the Owner Lessor has provided to the Indenture Trustee an
irrevocable commitment to pay, and reasonable assurances of its ability to pay
the principal of, and interest and Make-Whole Premium, if applicable, on, the
Senior Notes which would be payable on the Obsolescence Termination Date, the
Owner Lessor may irrevocably elect to retain, rather than sell, the Owner
Lessor's Leasehold Interest by giving notice to the Lessee not less than 90 days
after the Lessee elects to terminate this Project Lease under Section 14.1. If
the Owner Lessor elects to retain such Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest
pursuant to this Section 14.3, on the Obsolescence Termination Date the Lessee
shall pay to the Owner Lessor (a) all Supplemental Lease Rent (including all
reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Owner Lessor, the Equity
Investor, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders (excluding the fees and
costs of any broker unless engaged by the Lessee on the Owner Lessor's behalf),
but excluding Termination Value) due and payable on or prior to such
Obsolescence Termination Date, (b) any unpaid Periodic Lease Rent and Renewal
Lease Rent due on or before such Obsolescence Termination Date, plus (c) any
premium, including any Make Whole Premium, due on the Senior Notes being prepaid
pursuant to this Section 14, but the Lessee shall not be required to pay
Termination Value. All Rent payments, including payments of Make Whole Premium,
if applicable, under


                                       27



this Section 14.3 shall, so long as the Lien of the Indenture shall not have
been terminated and fully discharged, be made to or at the direction of the
Indenture Trustee. Upon payment of all sums required to be paid pursuant to this
Section 14.3, (i) Allocated Rent shall cease to accrue and the obligation to pay
Periodic Lease Rent and Renewal Lease Rent shall cease, (ii) the Lessee shall
cease to have any liability to the Owner Lessor, the Equity Investor or the
Indenture Trustee with respect to the Project, except for Supplemental Lease
Rent and other obligations (including those under Sections 9.1 and 9.2 of the
Participation Agreement and the Tax Indemnity Agreement) surviving pursuant to
the express terms of any Operative Document, (iii) the Owner Lessor shall pay
the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest (and Make Whole
Premium, if applicable) on the Senior Notes, (iv) this Project Lease and the
Head Lease shall terminate, (v) the Owner Lessor shall, at the Lessee's cost and
expense, execute and deliver to the Lessee a release and termination of this
Project Lease and the Sublease of the Power Plant Sublease, (vi) the Lessee will
return the Project to the Owner Lessor in accordance with Section 5, and (vii)
the Owner Lessor shall use all reasonable efforts to cause the Indenture Trustee
to discharge the Lien of the Indenture and to execute and deliver appropriate
releases and other documents or instruments necessary or desirable to effect the
foregoing, all to be prepared, filed and recorded (as appropriate) at the cost
and expense of the Lessee. It shall be a condition to the termination of this
Project Lease pursuant to this Section 14.3 that the Lessee shall pay all
amounts that it is obligated to pay under this Section 14.3. If the Owner Lessor
shall not have complied with its obligations set forth in the next preceding
sentence, on the Obsolescence Termination Date, the notice of termination shall
be deemed revoked and this Project Lease shall continue in full force and effect
in accordance with its terms (without prejudice to the Lessee's right to
exercise its rights under this Section 14 or the rights of the Noteholders to
exercise their rights under the Indenture if such revocation is given after the
date on which the notice of prepayment of the Senior Notes is irrevocable under
the Indenture).

          Section 14.4. Procedure for Exercise of Termination Option. If the
Owner Lessor has not elected to retain the Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest in
accordance with Section 14.3 hereof, on the Obsolescence Termination Date the
Owner Lessor shall sell the Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest under this Section
14.4 hereof to the bidder or bidders (which shall not be the Lessee, any
Affiliate thereof or any third party with whom the Lessee or an Affiliate of the
Lessee has an arrangement to use or operate the Project to generate power for
the benefit of the Lessee or such Affiliate after the termination of this
Project Lease), that shall have submitted the highest cash bid and the net
proceeds of such sale shall be for the account of the Owner Lessor. In addition,
the Lessee shall certify to the Owner Lessor and, so long as the Lien of the
Indenture shall not have been terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture
Trustee that such buyer is not the Lessee, any Affiliate thereof or any third
party with whom the Lessee or an Affiliate of the Lessee has an arrangement to
use or operate the Project to generate power for the benefit of the Lessee or
such Affiliate after the termination of this Project Lease. On the Obsolescence
Termination Date, the Lessee shall pay to the Owner Lessor (a) the excess, if
any, of Termination Value determined as of such Obsolescence Termination Date,
over the total sales price of the Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest retained by
the Owner Lessor (net of the fees, commissions, costs and other amounts of any
broker engaged by the Lessee or any Affiliate thereof on the Owner Lessor's
behalf), plus (b) any unpaid Periodic Lease Rent and Renewal Lease Rent due on
or before such Obsolescence Termination Date, plus (c) all Supplemental Lease
Rent (including all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Owner
Lessor, the


                                       28



Equity Investor, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders (excluding the fees
and costs of any broker unless engaged by the Lessee on the Owner Lessor's
behalf)) due and payable on or prior to such Obsolescence Termination Date, plus
(d) any premium, including Make Whole Premium, if applicable, due on the Senior
Notes being prepaid pursuant to this Section 14. All Rent payments, including
payments of Make Whole Premium, under this Section 14.4 shall, so long as the
Lien of the Indenture shall not have been terminated and fully discharged, be
made to or at the direction of the Indenture Trustee. Upon the payment of all
sums specified in this Section 14.4, (i) Allocated Rent shall cease to accrue
and the obligation to pay Periodic Lease Rent or Renewal Lease Rent shall cease,
(ii) the Lessee shall cease to have any liability to the Owner Lessor, the
Equity Investor or the Indenture Trustee, except for Supplemental Lease Rent and
other obligations (including those under Sections 9.1 and 9.2 of the
Participation Agreement and the Tax Indemnity Agreement) surviving pursuant to
the express terms of any Operative Document, (iii) the Owner Lessor shall pay
the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest (and Make Whole
Premium, if applicable) on the Senior Notes, (iv) this Project Lease and the
Head Lease shall terminate, (v) the Owner Lessor shall, at the Lessee's cost and
expense, execute and deliver to the Lessee a release and termination of this
Project Lease, the Head Lease and the Real Estate Documents, (vi) the Lessee
will return the Project to the Owner Lessor in accordance with Section 5, (vii)
in connection with any sale of the Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest pursuant to
this Section 14.4, such sale shall be made subject to the Lessee's rights to
remove Severable Modifications as permitted in Section 8.3 and the Owner Lessor
shall transfer (by an appropriate instrument of transfer in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Owner Lessor and prepared and recorded by and at
the expense of the Lessee) the Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest to the
purchaser pursuant to this Section 14.4 on an "as is, where is" and "with all
faults" basis, without representations or warranties other than a warranty as to
the absence of Owner Lessor's Liens and a warranty from the Equity Investor as
to the absence of Equity Investor's Liens, and (viii) the Owner Lessor shall use
all reasonable efforts to cause the Indenture Trustee to discharge the Lien of
the Indenture and shall execute and deliver appropriate releases and other
documents or instruments necessary or desirable to effect the foregoing, all to
be prepared, filed and recorded (as appropriate) at the sole cost and expense of
the Lessee. Unless the Owner Lessor shall have elected to retain the Owner
Lessor's Leasehold Interest pursuant to Section 14.3 or the Owner Lessor with
the consent of the Lessee shall have entered into a legally binding contract to
sell the Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest, the Lessee may, at its election,
revoke its notice of termination on at least 30 days' prior notice to the Owner
Lessor and, so long as the Lien of the Indenture shall not have been terminated
and fully discharged, the Indenture Trustee, in which event this Project Lease
shall continue, and the Lessee will reimburse the Owner Lessor, the Equity
Investor, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders on an After-Tax Basis for
all reasonable, documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in
connection with the election (and subsequent revocation) by the Lessee of its
right to terminate this Project Lease under this Section 14; provided, however,
that the Lessee shall not be permitted to initiate a notice to terminate
pursuant to Section 14.1 more than three times during the term of this Project
Lease or more than twice in any five year period. The Owner Lessor shall be
under no duty to solicit bids, to inquire into the efforts of the Lessee to
obtain bids or otherwise take any action in arranging any such sale of the Owner
Lessor's Leasehold Interest other than, if the Owner Lessor has not elected to
retain the Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest, to transfer the Owner Lessor's
Leasehold Interest in accordance with clause (vii) of this Section 14.4. It
shall be a condition of the Owner Lessor's obligation to consummate


                                       29



a sale of the Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest that the Lessee shall pay all
amounts it is obligated to pay under this Section 14.4. If no sale shall occur
on the Obsolescence Termination Date, the notice of termination shall be deemed
revoked and this Project Lease shall continue in full force and effect in
accordance with its terms (without prejudice to the Lessee's right to exercise
its rights under this Section 14); provided that if the Lessee has not given a
notice of revocation before the date on which the notice of prepayment of Senior
Notes has become irrevocable in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, the
Lessee shall be obligated to make a Supplemental Rent payment (on an After-Tax
Basis to the Owner Lessor and the Equity Investor) equal to the principal of,
and interest and Make-Whole Premium, if applicable, on the Senior Notes which
are due and payable.

SECTION 15. LEASE RENEWAL

          Section 15.1. Wintergreen Renewal Lease Term. Not earlier than
twenty-four (24) months and not later than eighteen (18) months prior to the
expiration of the Basic Lease Term, the Lessee may deliver to the Owner Lessor
written notice (which notice may be in addition to a notice of the Lessee's
tentative interest in electing an FMV Renewal Lease Term under Section 15.2) of
the Lessee's tentative interest in renewing this Project Lease for a term (the
"Wintergreen Renewal Lease Term") commencing on the day following the last day
of the Basic Lease Term and ending on a date (a) as of which the sum of the
number of years of the proposed Wintergreen Renewal Lease Term and the Basic
Lease Term is not more than seventy-five (75%) of the estimated economic useful
life of the Project measured from the Closing Date, but determined by an
Independent Appraiser (which Independent Appraiser shall be selected by the
Owner Lessor and be reasonably acceptable to the Lessee) in accordance with the
Appraisal Procedure not more than twelve (12) months before the end of the Basic
Lease Term, and (b) as of which the estimated fair market value of the Project
determined, by such Independent Appraiser, subsequent to the Lessee's tentative
election of the Wintergreen Renewal Lease Term (but not earlier than twelve (12)
months prior to the expiration of the Basic Lease Term), shall equal or exceed
twenty percent (20%) of the Head Lease Rent (without taking into account
inflation or deflation subsequent to the Closing Date), provided that no
Wintergreen Renewal Lease Term shall be for a period of less than one (1) year.
Unless the Lessee shall have irrevocably elected to renew this Project Lease for
an FMV Renewal Lease Term under Section 15.2, and provided that no Lease Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on such notice date on or prior
to eighteen (18) months before the expiration of the Basic Lease Term, the
Lessee may deliver to the Owner Lessor a further notice in writing irrevocably
electing to renew this Project Lease for the Wintergreen Renewal Lease Term
determined as aforesaid and, subject to no Significant Lease Default or Lease
Event of Default having occurred and continuing on the last day of the Basic
Lease Term, the Wintergreen Renewal Lease Term shall thereupon take effect as
provided herein. The Independent Appraiser's fees and expenses shall be borne by
the Lessee.

          Section 15.2. Fair Market Value Renewal Lease Terms. Not earlier than
thirty-six (36) months and not later than eighteen (18) months prior to the
expiration of the Basic Lease Term, the Wintergreen Renewal Lease Term or any
other Renewal Lease Term, unless a Lease Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing, the Lessee may deliver to the Owner Lessor notice (which
notice may be in addition to a notice of the Lessee's tentative interest in


                                       30



electing the Wintergreen Renewal Lease Term) of the Lessee's tentative interest
in renewing this Project Lease for a term (each such term, a "FMV Renewal Lease
Term") commencing on the day following the last day of the Basic Lease Term or a
Renewal Lease Term otherwise expiring and extending for a period equal to three
years; provided that unless such FMV Renewal Lease Term extends to the end of
the useful life of the Project, no such FMV Renewal Lease Term shall extend
beyond the date that is three (3) years prior to the end of the useful life of
the Project (as set forth in the most recent of (a) the Closing Appraisal or (b)
the appraisal obtained in connection with the exercise of the Wintergreen
Renewal Lease Term or the most recent FMV Renewal Lease Term, if any). Unless
the Lessee shall have irrevocably elected to renew this Project Lease for the
Wintergreen Renewal Lease Term pursuant to Section 15.1 (it being understood
that the exercise by the Lessee of its right to renew this Project Lease at the
end of the Basic Lease Term pursuant to Section 15.1 hereof shall not impair its
right to renew this Project Lease at any time thereafter pursuant to this
Section 15.2), and provided that no Lease Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing on any such notice date or on the date of expiration of the
Basic Lease Term or the Renewal Lease Term immediately preceding such FMV
Renewal Lease Term, as the case may be, on or prior to eighteen (18) months
before the expiration of the existing Basic Lease Term or the relevant Renewal
Lease Term, as the case may be, the Lessee may deliver to the Owner Lessor a
further notice irrevocably electing to renew this Project Lease for the FMV
Renewal Lease Term tentatively elected as aforesaid and, subject to no
Significant Lease Default or Lease Event of Default having occurred and
continuing on the last day of the Basic Lease Term or the Renewal Lease Term
immediately preceding such FMV Renewal Lease Term, as the case may be, the FMV
Renewal Lease Term shall thereupon take effect as provided herein.

          Section 15.3. Renewal Lease Rent for the Renewal Lease Term.

          (a) Renewal Lease Rent shall be paid on each Rent Payment Date, in
arrears, during each Renewal Lease Term.

          (b) The installment of Renewal Lease Rent payable on each Rent Payment
Date during the Wintergreen Renewal Lease Term is an amount equal to 100% of the
average annual Periodic Lease Rent during the Project Lease Term.

          (c) Renewal Lease Rent payable on each Rent Payment Date during any
FMV Renewal Lease Term shall be the Fair Market Rental Value for the Project as
determined in accordance with Section 15.4.

          Section 15.4. Determination of Fair Market Rental Value. The Fair
Market Rental Value of the Project as of the commencement of any Renewal Lease
Term shall be determined by agreement of the Owner Lessor and the Lessee within
six months after receipt by the Owner Lessor of the tentative notice from the
Lessee of its election to renew pursuant to Section 15.2, (but not more than
twelve (12) months before the commencement of such Renewal Lease Term) or, if
they shall fail to agree within such six-month period, shall be determined by an
Independent Appraiser in accordance with the Appraisal Procedures, which
Independent Appraiser shall be selected by the Owner Lessor and reasonably
acceptable to the Lessee. The appraiser's fees and expenses shall be borne by
the Lessee.


                                       31



          Section 15.5. Termination Value During Renewal Lease Terms. The
amounts which are payable during any Renewal Lease Term in respect of
Termination Value shall be determined on the basis of the Fair Market Sales
Value of the Project as of the commencement of such Renewal Lease Term,
amortized on a straight-line basis over such Renewal Lease Term to the projected
Fair Market Sales Value of the Project as of the expiration of such Renewal
Lease Term, as such Fair Market Sales Value in each case is determined prior to
the commencement of such Renewal Lease Term, plus any amount of Renewal Lease
Rent accrued and unpaid to the date of termination. In determining Fair Market
Sales Value for any Renewal Lease Term, effect shall be given, whether positive
or negative, to the encumbrance on the Project of any FMV Renewal Lease Term
available or in force.

          Section 15.6. Rebuilding Related Extensions. In the event that the
Project has suffered an Event of Loss or Significant Partial Loss and the Lessee
has elected to rebuild the Project pursuant to Section 10.1 but is unable to
satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 10.3 prior to the last day of the
Project Lease Term, then, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 15.2, the
Lessee shall be deemed to have elected the renewal option set forth in Section
15.2. The term of any such renewal shall extend until the date that is 18 months
following the date on which all of the conditions set forth in Section 10.3 are
satisfied. The Fair Market Rental Value payable during any such renewal term
shall be equal to the Fair Market Rental Value of the Project assuming that the
Project had been fully rebuilt on the first day of such renewal term in
accordance with Section 10.3.

SECTION 16. EVENTS OF DEFAULT

SECTION 17. REMEDIES

          Section 17.1. Remedies for Lease Event of Default. Upon the occurrence
of any Lease Event of Default and at any time thereafter so long as the same
shall be continuing (the Owner Lessor acknowledging that in making a
determination that a Lease Event of Default has occurred under Section 16(d) or
(e), to the extent the Lessor exercises discretion in making such determination,
it shall exercise such discretion in a commercially reasonable manner), the
Owner Lessor may, at its option, declare this Project Lease to be in default by
written notice to the Lessee; provided that upon the occurrence of a Lease Event
of Default described in paragraph (g) of Section 16, this Project Lease shall
automatically be deemed to be in default without the need for giving any notice;
and at any time thereafter, so long as the Lessee shall not have remedied all
outstanding Lease Events of Default, the Owner Lessor may do one or more of the
following as the Owner Lessor in its sole discretion shall elect, to the extent
permitted by, and subject to compliance with any mandatory requirements of,
Applicable Law then in effect:


                                       34



          (a) proceed by appropriate court action or actions, either at law or
in equity, to enforce performance by the Lessee, at the Lessee's sole cost and
expense, of the applicable covenants and terms of this Project Lease or to
recover damages for breach thereof;

          (b) by notice in writing to the Lessee, terminate this Project Lease
whereupon all right of the Lessee to the possession and use under this Project
Lease of the Project shall absolutely cease and terminate but the Lessee shall
remain liable as hereinafter provided; and thereupon, the Owner Lessor may
demand that the Lessee, and the Lessee shall upon written demand of the Owner
Lessor and at the Lessee's expense, forthwith return possession of the Project
to the Owner Lessor in the manner and condition required by, and otherwise in
accordance with all of the provisions of Section 5, except those provisions
relating to periods of notice; and the Owner Lessor may thenceforth hold,
possess and enjoy the same free from any right of the Lessee, or its successor
or assigns, to use the Project for any purpose whatever;

          (c) sell the Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest at public or private
sale, as the Owner Lessor may determine, free and clear of any rights of the
Lessee under this Project Lease and without any duty to account to the Lessee
with respect to such sale or for the proceeds thereof (except to the extent
required by paragraph (f) below if the Owner Lessor elects to exercise its
rights under said paragraph and by Applicable Law), in which event Allocated
Rent shall cease to accrue and the Lessee's obligation to pay Periodic Lease
Rent or Renewal Lease Rent hereunder due for any periods subsequent to the date
of such sale shall terminate (except to the extent that Periodic Lease Rent and
Renewal Lease Rent is to be included in computations under paragraph (e) or (f)
below if the Owner Lessor elects to exercise its rights under said paragraphs);

          (d) hold, keep idle or lease to others the Project as the Owner Lessor
in its sole discretion may determine, free and clear of any rights of the Lessee
under this Project Lease and without any duty to account to the Lessee with
respect to such action or inaction or for any proceeds with respect thereto,
except that the Lessee's obligation to pay Periodic Lease Rent or Renewal Lease
Rent due for any periods subsequent to the date upon which the Lessee shall have
been deprived of possession and use of the Project pursuant to this Section 17
shall be reduced by the net proceeds, if any, received by the Owner Lessor from
leasing the Project to any Person other than the Lessee;

          (e) whether or not the Owner Lessor shall have exercised, or shall
thereafter at any time exercise, any of its rights under paragraph (b) above,
the Owner Lessor, by written notice to the Lessee specifying a Termination Date
that shall be not earlier than 10 days after the date of such notice, may demand
that the Lessee pay to the Owner Lessor, and the Lessee shall pay to the Owner
Lessor, on the Termination Date specified in such notice, any unpaid Periodic
Lease Rent and Renewal Lease Rent due on or before such Termination Date, any
Supplemental Lease Rent due and payable on or prior to such Termination Date,
plus as liquidated damages for loss of a bargain and not as a penalty (in lieu
of the Periodic Lease Rent or Renewal Lease Rent due on and after such
Termination Date), (i) an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Termination
Value computed as of such Termination Date over the Fair Market Sales Value of
the Project as of such Termination Date, or (ii) an amount equal to the excess,
if any, of Termination Value computed as of such Termination Date over the Fair
Market Rental Value of


                                       35



the Project until the end of the Basic Lease Term or the then current Renewal
Lease Term, after discounting such Fair Market Rental Value semiannually to
present value as of such Termination Date at a rate equal to the Lease Debt
Rate, or (iii) an amount equal to the Termination Value computed as of such
Termination Date; provided that upon payment of such Termination Value by the
Lessee pursuant to this clause (iii) and all other Rent (not otherwise included
in the calculation of such Termination Value) then due and unpaid, or accrued
and unpaid, by the Lessee, then upon any sale of the Owner Lessor's Leasehold
Interest as a result of such exercise of remedies at public or private sale, the
Owner Lessor shall pay over to the Lessee upon consummation of any such sale the
net proceeds of such sale (after deducting from such proceeds all costs and
expenses incurred by the Owner Lessor in connection therewith and all other
amounts that may become payable to the Owner Lessor, the Equity Investor, the
Indenture Trustee or any Noteholder) but not to exceed the sum of such
Termination Value paid by the Lessee plus interest at the Prime Rate (as
published in the Wall Street Journal from time to time) from such Termination
Date until the date of payment of such proceeds to the Lessee and the Lessee
waives all claims against the Owner Lessor and the Equity Investor in connection
with the sale of the Owner Lessor's Leasehold Interest efforts pursuant to this
proviso. Upon payment of such amount under either clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of
this paragraph (e) and all other Rent then due and unpaid, or accrued and
unpaid, by the Lessee, Allocated Rent shall cease to accrue and the Lessee's
obligation to pay Periodic Lease Rent or Renewal Lease Rent hereunder due for
any periods subsequent to the date of such payment shall terminate and this
Project Lease, the Head Lease and the Sublease of the Power Plant Sublease shall
terminate;

          (f) if the Owner Lessor shall have sold the Owner Lessor's Leasehold
Interest pursuant to paragraph (c) above, the Owner Lessor may, if it shall so
elect, demand that the Lessee pay to the Owner Lessor, and the Lessee shall pay
to the Owner Lessor, as liquidated damages for loss of a bargain and not as a
penalty (in lieu of the Periodic Lease Rent or Renewal Lease Rent due for any
periods subsequent to the date of such sale), an amount equal to (i) any unpaid
Periodic Lease Rent and Renewal Lease Rent due on or before the date of such
sale and, plus (ii) if the date is not a Termination Date, the sum of (A)
accrued and unpaid interest on the Senior Notes from the Termination Date next
preceding the date of such sale (after payment of principal, premium and
interest on the Senior Notes on such Termination Date (if such Termination Date
is a Rent Payment Date)) to the date of such sale, plus (B) the product of (x)
the positive or negative difference between the Equity Portion of Termination
Value on the Termination Date next preceding the date of such sale (after any
payment of the Equity Portion of Periodic Lease Rent due on such Termination
Date (if such Termination Date is a Rent Payment Date)) and the Equity Portion
of Termination Value on the Termination Date next succeeding the date of such
sale, and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days from the
Termination Date next preceding the date of such sale to the date of such sale,
and the denominator of which is the number of days between the Termination Date
next preceding the date of such sale and the Termination Date next succeeding
the date of such sale, plus (iii) either (A) if the date of such sale is not a
Termination Date, the amount, if any, by which the Termination Value computed as
of the Termination Date next preceding the date of such sale (after deducting
any payment of the Periodic Lease Rent due on such Termination Date (if such
Termination Date is a Rent Payment Date)), exceeds the net proceeds of such sale
or (B) if the date of such sale is a Termination Date, the amount by which the
Termination Value as of the date of sale exceeds the net proceeds of such sale,
together with interest on the amounts payable


                                       36



pursuant to this Section 17.1(f) at the Overdue Rate for the period, if any,
from the date of sale to and including the date of actual payment of all such
amounts to the Owner Lessor; and, upon payment of all such amounts, the Lessee's
obligation to pay Periodic Lease Rent or Renewal Lease Rent for any periods
subsequent to the date of such payment shall terminate and this Project Lease,
the Head Lease and the Sublease of the Power Plant Sublease shall terminate; or

          (g) apply any amounts that are held by the Owner Lessor or the Lease
Indenture Trustee as security for the Lessee's obligations hereunder or under
any Security Document against any amounts owed by the Lessee hereunder or under
any other Operative Document, subject to Section 12.17 of the Participation
Agreement.

     In addition, the Lessee shall be liable, except as otherwise provided
above, for (i) any and all unpaid Periodic Lease Rent and Renewal Lease Rent due
hereunder before or during the exercise of any of the foregoing remedies, and
(ii) on an After-Tax Basis, for legal fees and other costs and expenses incurred
by reason of the occurrence of any Lease Event of Default or the exercise of the
remedies with respect thereto, including the repayment in full of any costs and
expenses necessary to be expended in connection with the return of the Project
in accordance with Section 5 hereof, including, any costs and expenses incurred
by the Owner Lessor, the Equity Investor, the Indenture Trustee and the
Noteholders in connection with retaking constructive possession of, or in
repairing, the Project in order to cause it to be in compliance with all
maintenance standards imposed by this Project Lease.

     All payments of Rent under this Section 17.1 shall, so long as the Lien of
the Indenture shall not have been terminated and fully discharged, be made to or
at the direction of the Indenture Trustee.

          Section 17.2. Cumulative Remedies. The remedies in this Project Lease
provided in favor of the Owner Lessor shall not be deemed exclusive, but shall
be cumulative and shall be in addition to all other remedies in its favor
existing at law or in equity; and the exercise or beginning of exercise by the
Owner Lessor of any one or more of such remedies shall not, except as
specifically provided in this Section 17, preclude the simultaneous or later
exercise by the Owner Lessor of any or all of such other remedies. To the extent
permitted by Applicable Law, the Lessee hereby waives any rights now or
hereafter conferred by statute or otherwise which may require the Owner Lessor
to sell, lease or otherwise use the Project or any Component thereof in
mitigation of the Owner Lessor's damages as set forth in this Section 17 or
which may otherwise limit or modify any of the Owner Lessor's rights and
remedies in this Section 17.

          Section 17.3. No Delay or Omission to be Construed as Waiver. No delay
or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to the Owner Lessor
upon any breach or default by the Lessee under this Project Lease shall impair
any such right, power or remedy of the Owner Lessor, nor shall any such delay or
omission be construed as a waiver of any breach or default, or of any similar
breach or default hereafter occurring; nor shall any waiver of a single breach
or default be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach or default.

          Section 17.4. Limited Recourse. Notwithstanding anything else in any
Operative Document to the contrary, if the sole Lease Event of Default is
triggered by the occurrence of (each a "Limited Recourse Event" (x) an event set
forth in Section 16(d) (as it pertains to any


                                       37



covenant, obligation or agreement (other than a payment obligation) of the
Lessee in any Real Estate Document or any Project Document) or (y) an event set
forth in Section 16(e) as it pertains to (i) the representation and warranty of
the Lessee in Section 3.1(c)(iii), 3.1(d)(i)(B) (to the extent such
representation and warranty relates to the Owner Lessor), 3.1(e), 3.1(h)(iii),
and 3.1(x) of the Participation Agreement, or (ii) any representation or
warranty of the Lessee in any Real Estate Document or in any Project Document)
or (z) an event set forth in Section 16(f), (j), (k) and (l) (as it pertains to
any party to a Project Document), or any combination of the foregoing and no
other event that gives rise to a Lease Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, the Lessee's recourse liability to the Owner Lessor including
recourse with respect to amounts in the Accounts as a consequence of such Lease
Event of Default (including any liability for enforcement costs or losses
arising as a result of such Lease Event of Default and Section 9 of the
Participation Agreement for any Claims arising out of any Limited Recourse
Event) shall be limited to the Limited Recourse Amount (it being understood by
the parties hereto that the limit on the Lessee's recourse liability with
respect to any indemnification provisions shall only pertain to Claims that
directly arise from a Limited Recourse Event). In addition, any amounts owed to
the Owner Lessor which are not paid in full from the Lessee's liability to pay
the Limited Recourse Amount may be realized by the exercise of remedies with
respect to the Collateral under this Section 17. For the avoidance of doubt, the
Owner Lessor (or the Indenture Trustee) shall not be entitled to claim the
excess, if any, of (i) the aggregate of the balances in the Payment Accounts and
the Accounts (other than the Loss Proceeds Account) over (ii) the Limited
Recourse Amount, in each case as of the date of the declaration of a Limited
Recourse Event.

SECTION 18. SUBLEASE

     The Lessee shall not have the right to sublease the Project or assign its
interest in this Project Lease, the Project Documents or the Project Site, in
whole or in part, without the prior consent of the Owner Lessor.

SECTION 19. OWNER LESSOR'S RIGHT TO PERFORM

     If the Lessee fails to make any payment required to be made by it hereunder
or fails to perform or comply with any of its other agreements contained herein
after notice to the Lessee and failure of the Lessee to so perform or comply,
the Owner Lessor may itself, or may cause the Equity Investor to, make such
payment or perform or comply with such agreement in a reasonable manner, but
shall not be obligated hereunder to do so, and the amount of such payment and of
the reasonable expenses of the Owner Lessor or the Equity Investor incurred in
connection with such payment or the performance of or compliance with such
agreement, as the case may be, together with interest thereon at the Overdue
Rate, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, shall be deemed to be
Supplemental Lease Rent, payable by the Lessee to the Owner Lessor on demand.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the foregoing, the
provisions of this Section 19 shall in no event restrict any of the Owner
Lessor's rights following the occurrence of the a Lease Event of Default, it
being agreed and understood that the Owner Lessor shall be entitled to exercise
all of its remedies pursuant to Section 17 upon the occurrence of any such
event.


                                       38



SECTION 20. SECURITY FOR OWNER LESSOR'S OBLIGATION TO THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE

     In order to secure the Senior Notes, the Owner Lessor will assign and grant
a Lien to the Indenture Trustee in and to all of the Owner Lessor's right, title
and interest in, to and under this Project Lease (other than Excepted Payments),
and grant a security interest in favor of the Indenture Trustee in all of the
Owner Lessor's right, title and interest in and to the Owner Lessor's Leasehold
Interest. The Lessee hereby consents to such assignment and to the creation of
such Lien and security interest and acknowledges receipt of copies of the
Indenture and the other Operative Documents, it being understood that such
consent shall not affect any requirement or the absence of any requirement for
any consent of the Lessee under any other circumstances. Unless and until the
Lessee shall have received written notice from the Indenture Trustee that the
Lien of the Indenture has been terminated and fully discharged, the Indenture
Trustee shall have the right to exercise the rights of the Owner Lessor under
this Project Lease to the extent set forth in and subject in each case to the
exceptions set forth in the Indenture. TO THE EXTENT, IF ANY, THAT THIS PROJECT
LEASE CONSTITUTES CHATTEL PAPER (AS SUCH TERM IS DEFINED IN THE UNIFORM
COMMERCIAL CODE AS IN EFFECT IN ANY APPLICABLE JURISDICTION), NO SECURITY
INTEREST IN THIS PROJECT LEASE MAY BE CREATED THROUGH THE TRANSFER OR POSSESSION
OF ANY COUNTERPART HEREOF OTHER THAN THE ORIGINAL COUNTERPART, WHICH SHALL BE

to the Owner Lessor and prepared by and at the expense of the Lessee) the Owner
Lessor's Leasehold Interest to the Lessee pursuant to this Section 21 on an "as

other than a warranty as to the absence of Owner Lessor's Liens and a warranty

the option set forth in Section 21.1(i) hereof, after giving notice of its
intention to do so, (i) this Project Lease shall continue and (ii) such failure
to consummate shall not constitute a Lease Default; provided, however, that,
unless the exercise of the purchase option has been withdrawn before the date on
which any related notice of prepayment of Senior Notes has become irrevocable in
accordance with the terms of the Indenture, the Lessee shall be obligated to
make a Supplemental Rent payment (on an After-Tax Basis to the Owner Lessor and

executed and delivered an assumption agreement to assume in full the Senior
Notes and the obligations and liabilities of the Owner Lessor under the
Indenture as permitted by and in accordance with Section 2.10(B) of the
Indenture, (b) all other conditions contained in such Section 2.10(B) shall have
been satisfied, and (c) no Significant Lease Default or Lease Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing after giving effect to such assumption,
then the amounts otherwise payable by the Lessee pursuant to this Section 21
shall be reduced by the outstanding principal amount of and accrued interest on
the Senior Notes so assumed by the Lessee.
