(b) The Class A Membership Interests and the Class B Membership Interests shall (i) have the rights and obligations ascribed to such Membership Interests in this Agreement and the Act; (ii) be evidenced solely by certificates in the forms annexed hereto as Exhibit A and Exhibit B, respectively, or such other form as may be prescribed from time to time by any Applicable Law; (iii) be recorded in a register of Membership Interests (the "Register"), which shall be in the form attached hereto as Schedule I setting forth, with respect to all Members, such Member's name; the number and class of Membership Interests held by such Member, and which the Managing Member shall maintain; (iv) be transferable only in compliance with the provisions of Article IX hereof and upon presentation of the certificates duly endorsed for Transfer, or accompanied by assignment documentation in accordance with Article IX; (v) be "securities" governed by Article 8 of the UCC in any jurisdiction (x) that has adopted revisions to Article 8 of the UCC substantially consistent with the 1994 revisions to Article 8 adopted by the American Law Institute and the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws and (y) whose laws may be applicable, from time to time, to the issues of perfection, the effect of perfection or non-perfection, and the priority of a security interest in Membership Interests in the Company; and (vi) be personal property.

(c) The Company shall be entitled to treat the registered holder of a Membership Interest, as shown in the Register, as a Member for all purposes of this Agreement, except that the Managing Member may record in the Register any security interest of a secured party pursuant to any security interest permitted by this Agreement. The Managing Member shall from time to time update the Register as necessary to accurately reflect the information therein. Any reference in this Agreement to the Register shall be deemed to be a reference to the Register as in effect at that time. Each Member shall receive, upon such Member's request, the information set forth on the Register with respect to such Member's Membership Interest as of the date of such request. Revisions to the Register made by the Managing Member as a result of changes to the information set forth therein made in accordance with this Agreement shall not constitute an amendment of this Agreement, and shall not require the consent of any Member.

(d) If a Member transfers all of its Membership Interest to another Person pursuant to and in accordance with the terms set forth in Article IX, the transferor shall automatically cease to be a Member.

Section 3.2. Meetings of the Members; Actions by the Members.

(a) Meetings of the Members shall be held quarterly and may also be called at any time by the Managing Member within 10 days following the written request of a Member. Except as otherwise permitted by this Agreement (including Section 3.2(e) below), all actions of the Members shall be taken at meetings of the Members. The Members may conduct any Company business at any such meeting that is permitted under the Act or this Agreement. Meetings shall be at a reasonable time and place. Accurate minutes of any meeting shall be taken and filed with the minute books of the Company. Following each meeting, the minutes of the meeting shall be sent to each Member.

(b) Members may participate in any meeting of the Members by means of conference telephone or other communications equipment so that all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other or by any other means permitted by law. Such participation shall constitute presence in person at such meeting. A Member may designate a third party (non-employee of the Member) as its representative for any meeting of the Members; provided, that such designee (i) is not then currently employed directly or indirectly as an employee, consultant, or advisor (or in any similar capacity) of or by a Competitor, (ii) prior to, and as a condition of, attending any meeting of the Members, such designee has executed a confidentiality agreement which shall include customary confidentiality undertakings and restrictions on use provisions, which shall be in all respects acceptable to the Managing Member (or, if Ormat is no longer the Managing Member, acceptable to the Managing Member and Ormat) and (iii) the Member designating such third party shall be responsible and liable for the acts or omissions of its designee.

(c) The presence in person or by proxy of Members owning more than 50% of the aggregate Class A Membership Interests and more than 50% of the aggregate Class B Membership Interests shall constitute a quorum for purposes of transacting business at any meeting of the Members.

(d) Written notice stating the place, day and hour of the meeting of the Members, and the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called, shall be delivered by or at the direction of the Managing Member, to each Member of record not less than 5 Business Days nor more than 30 days prior to the meeting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, meetings of the Members may be held without notice so long as all the Members are present in person or by proxy.

(e) Any action of the Members that may be taken at a meeting of the Members may be taken by the Members without a meeting if such action is proposed by written notice to the Members as provided in this Section 3.2(e) and is authorized or approved by the written consent of Members representing sufficient Membership Interests (based on voting power of such Membership Interests) to authorize or approve such action pursuant to this Agreement. Written notice stating the proposed Member action, authorization or approval to be considered, together with relevant materials and information reasonably necessary for the Members to consider such action, authorization or approval, shall be delivered by or at the direction of the Managing Member to each Member of record entitled to vote on such matter not less than 5 Business Days nor more than 30 days prior to the time that such action, authorization or approval is proposed to take effect. Where such action by written consent is authorized by unanimous written consent, no such prior notice is required. A copy of any action taken by written consent shall be sent promptly to all Members and all actions by written consent shall be filed with the minute books of the Company.

(f) With respect to those matters required or permitted to be voted upon by the Members, or for which a consent or approval of Members is required or permitted, the affirmative vote, consent or approval by a simple majority of Membership Interests (based on voting power of such Membership Interests) (the "Majority Vote") shall be required to authorize or approve any such matter; provided, that, the affirmative unanimous vote, consent or approval of the Class A Members and Class B Members shall be required for any Major Decisions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (x) either the Managing Member or Northleaf (for so long as Northleaf and its Affiliates, collectively hold the majority of the Class B Membership Interests) may determine and so instruct the Company pursuant to written notice delivered to the Company (with a copy to each Member), to cause the relevant Project Company to exercise (i) the purchase option under Section 21 of the Puna Project Lease Agreement and (ii) the renewal option under Section 15 of the Puna Project Lease Agreement and (y) the Class B Member shall have the right to enforce the provisions of any Affiliate Contract and the warranties and indemnities under the Don A. Campbell Expansion EPC Agreement and the ORNI 37 Purchase Agreement on behalf of the Project Company party thereto (including ORNI 37). Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no separate vote, consent or approval of either the Class A Members, acting as a class, or the Class B Members, acting as a class, shall be required to authorize or approve any matter for which a vote, consent or approval of Members is required under this Agreement.

(g) The voting power of each Membership Interest for purposes of any vote, consent or approval of Members required under this Agreement or the Act shall be as follows:

(i) each Class A Membership Interest shall be entitled to 1 vote; and

(ii) each Class B Membership Interest shall be entitled to 1 vote.

Section 3.3. Management Rights. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement with respect to matters which are expressly required to be approved by the Members under this Agreement or as otherwise mandatorily required by the Act, no Member other than the Managing Member shall have any right, power or authority to take part in the management or control of the business of, or transact any business for, the Company, to sign for or on behalf of the Company or to bind the Company in any manner whatsoever. Except as otherwise provided herein, neither the Managing Member nor the Manager shall hold out or represent to any third party that any other Member has any such power or right or that any Member is anything other than a member in the Company. A Member shall not be deemed to be participating in the control of the business of the Company by virtue of its possessing or exercising any rights set forth in this Agreement or the Act or any other agreement relating to the Company.

Section 3.4. Other Activities. Notwithstanding any duty otherwise existing at law or in equity, any Member or the Manager may engage in or possess an interest in other business ventures of every nature and description, independently or with others, even if such activities compete directly with the business of the Company, and, except as and to the extent expressly set forth in this Agreement, neither the Company nor any of the Members shall have any rights by virtue of this Agreement in and to such independent ventures or any income, profits or property derived from them. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Members recognize and agree that:

(a) the Members and their respective Affiliates currently engage in certain activities involving the generation, transmission, distribution, marketing and trading of electricity and other energy products (including futures, options, swaps, exchanges of future positions for physical deliveries and commodity trading), and the gathering, processing, storage and transportation of such products, as well as other commercial activities related to such products, and that these and other activities by Members and their Affiliates (herein referred to as "Outside Activities") may be made possible or more profitable by reason of the Company's activities. The Members agree that (i) no Member or Affiliate of a Member shall be restricted in its right to conduct, individually or jointly with others, for its own account any Outside Activities, and (ii) no Member or its Affiliates shall have any duty or obligation, express or implied, to account to, or to share the results or profits of such Outside Activities with, the Company, any other Member or any Affiliate of any other Member, by reason of such Outside Activities.

(b) Except for the Don A. Campbell Expansion (which shall be contributed to the Company in accordance with Section 4.5 hereof), neither party has an exclusivity obligation for future investments.

(c) Each Member, for itself and its Affiliates, retain any and all rights to directly or indirectly pursue future development and acquisition opportunities outside of the Company and without participation of the Company or the other Member.

(d) The Members hereby agree that each of the Puna Project and the Don A. Campbell Project utilizes specific geothermal resources as set forth in the Puna GeothermEx Report and the DAC GeothermEx Report, respectively, located on such land owned or leased by the relevant Project Company as set forth in Schedule 3.1(m) to the Purchase Agreement (for purposes hereof, the "Geothermal Resource Area"). Notwithstanding anything in this Section 3.4 to the contrary, Ormat agrees that it shall not separately develop any geothermal power project (other than the Don A. Campbell Expansion) that relies on the same Geothermal Resource Area or any contiguous tract unless it shall have first delivered to each Class B Member a resource report from a recognized geothermal reservoir engineering firm mutually selected by the Members that confirms that such new project development and use of such Geothermal Resource Area could not reasonably be expected to adversely affect the relevant Project Company's existing Project.

Section 3.5. No Right to Withdraw. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no Member shall have any right to voluntarily resign or otherwise withdraw from the Company without the prior written consent of the remaining Members of the Company in their sole and absolute discretion.

Section 3.6. Limitation on Liability of Members.

(a) Each Member's liability shall be limited as set forth in the Act and other Applicable Laws. Except as otherwise required by the Act, the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise, shall be the debts, obligations and liabilities solely of the Company, and the Members of the Company shall not be obligated personally for any of such debts, obligations or liabilities solely by reason of being a Member of the Company. In no event shall any Member or the Manager be liable under this Agreement to another Member for any lost profits of, or any consequential, punitive, special or incidental damages incurred by, such Member arising from a breach of this Agreement; provided, that this Section 3.6(a) shall in no way limit any such liability of a Member or the Manager to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or another Member under any other Transaction Document or for gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct.

(b) Each Covered Person shall be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the records of the Company and upon such information, opinions, reports or statements presented to the Company by any other Person who is a Member, the Manager or any officer or employee of the Company, or by any other individual as to matters such Covered Person reasonably believe are within such other individual's professional or expert competence, including information, opinions, reports or statements as to the value and amount of the assets, liabilities, profits or losses of the Company or any other facts pertinent to the existence and amount of assets from which distribution to the Members might properly be paid.

(c) To the extent that, at law or in equity, a Member, in its capacity as a member (or manager) of the Company or otherwise, has duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities relating thereto to the Company or to any Member or other Person bound by this Agreement, such Member, acting under this Agreement shall not be liable to the Company or to any Member or other Person bound by this Agreement for its good faith reliance on the provisions of this Agreement; provided, that this Section 3.6(c) shall not be construed to limit obligations or liabilities therefor, in each case as expressly stated in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or in the event of gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct. The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of a Member, in its capacity as a member (or manager) of the Company or otherwise, otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Members to replace such other duties and liabilities of such Member.

(d) No Member, in its capacity as a Member, Managing Member or Manager, shall have any liability for breach of contract (except as provided in (i) and (ii) below) or breach of duties (including fiduciary duties) of a member or manager to the Company or to any other Person that is a party to or is otherwise bound by this Agreement, in each case, to the fullest extent permitted by the Act; provided, that (i) this Agreement shall not limit or eliminate liability for any (x) obligations expressly imposed on such Member, as Member, Managing Member or Manager, pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or (y) act or omission that constitutes a bad faith violation of the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing or (z) fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence and (ii) this Section 3.6(d) shall not limit or eliminate liabilities expressly stated in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

(e) Liability to the Company, any Class B Member or any other Person bound by this Agreement for damages resulting from a breach or breaches by (i) the Manager of any of its obligations, covenants or agreements under the Management Services Agreement or (ii) by the Operator of any of its obligations, covenants or agreements under any O&M Agreement shall be separate and distinct from liabilities of Ormat in its capacity as a Class A Member.

(f) Except as otherwise mandatorily required under Applicable Law, whenever in this Agreement a Member is permitted or required to make a decision (i) in its "sole discretion" or "discretion" or under a grant of similar authority or latitude, the Member may consider such interests and factors as it desires, including expressly its own interests, and shall have no duty or obligation to give any consideration to any interests of or factors affecting the Company or any other Member, or (ii) in its "good faith" or under another expressed standard, a Member shall act under such express standard and shall not be subject to any other or different standard imposed by this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated herein or by relevant provisions of law (whether common or statutory) or in equity or otherwise.

Section 3.7. No Liability for Deficits. Except to the extent otherwise provided by law with respect to third party creditors of the Company and in Section 10.2(f), none of the Members shall be liable to the Company for any deficit in its Capital Account, nor shall such deficits be deemed assets of the Company.

Section 3.8. Company Property. All property owned by the Company, whether real or personal, tangible or intangible and wherever located, shall be deemed to be owned by the Company, and no Member, individually, shall have any ownership of such property.

Section 3.9. Retirement, Resignation, Expulsion, Incompetency, Bankruptcy or Dissolution of a Member. The retirement, resignation, expulsion, Bankruptcy or dissolution of a Member shall not, in and of itself, dissolve the Company. The successors in interest to the bankrupt Member shall, for the purpose of settling the estate, have all of the rights of such Member, including the same rights and subject to the same limitations that such Member would have had under the provisions of this Agreement to Transfer its Membership Interest. A successor in interest to a Member shall not become a substituted Member except as provided in this Agreement.

Section 3.10. Withdrawal of Capital. No Member shall have the right to withdraw capital from the Company or to receive or demand distributions (except as to distributions of Distributable Cash as set forth in Article VI) or return of its Capital Contributions until the Company is dissolved in accordance with this Agreement and applicable provisions of the Act. No Member shall be entitled to demand or receive any interest on its Capital Contributions.

Section 3.11. Representations and Warranties.

(a) Each Member hereby represents and warrants to the Company and each other Member that the following statements are true and correct as of the date it becomes a Member (both immediately before and after the time it becomes a Member):

(i) That the Member is duly incorporated, organized or formed (as applicable), validly existing and (if applicable), in good standing under the law of the jurisdiction of its incorporation, organization or formation; if required by applicable law, that Member is duly qualified and in good standing in the jurisdiction of its principal place of business, if different from its jurisdiction of incorporation, organization or formation; and that Member has full power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder, and all necessary actions by the board of directors, shareholders, managers, members, partners, trustees, beneficiaries, or other applicable Persons necessary for the due authorization, execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement by that Member have been duly taken.

(ii) That the Member has duly executed and delivered this Agreement and the other documents contemplated herein, and they constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Member enforceable against it in accordance with their terms (except as may be limited by Bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws of general application and by the effect of general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered at law or in equity).

Article IV
CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS; CAPITAL ACCOUNTS; RESERVES

Section 4.1. Capital Contributions. Except as provided in this Article IV and Section 10.2(f) of this Agreement, no Member will be required to make any Capital Contributions to the Company after the Effective Date.

Section 4.2. Capital Accounts.

(a) A capital account (a "Capital Account") will be established and maintained for each Member. If there is more than one Member in a class, then each of the Members in that class will have a separate Capital Account.

(b) A Member's Capital Account will be increased by (i) the amount of money the Member contributes to the Company, (ii) the net value of any property the Member contributes or is deemed to contribute to the Company (i.e., the fair market value of the property net of liabilities secured by the property that the Company is considered to assume or take subject to under Section 752 of the Code), and (iii) the income and gain the Member is allocated by the Company, including any income and gain that are exempted from tax. A Member's Capital Account will be decreased by (w) the amount of Distributable Cash distributed or deemed distributed to the Member by the Company, (x) the net value of any property distributed to the Member by the Company (i.e., the fair market value of the property net of liabilities secured by the property that the Member is considered to assume or take subject to under Section 752 of the Code), (y) any expenditures of the Company described in Section 705(a)(2)(B) of the Code (i.e., that cannot be capitalized or deducted in computing taxable income) that are allocated to the Member; and (z) losses and deductions that are allocated to the Member.

(d) The Capital Account balances and Membership Interests of each Member on the Effective Date are shown in Schedule 4.2(d).

(e) The Managing Member will update Schedule 4.2(d) from time to time as necessary to reflect accurately the information therein. Any such updating will be consistent with how this Article IV requires that the Capital Accounts be maintained. Any reference in this Agreement to Schedule 4.2(d) will be treated as a reference to Schedule 4.2(d) as amended and in effect from time to time.

(f) If all or a portion of a Membership Interest in the Company is Transferred in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, then the transferee will succeed to the Capital Account of the transferor to the extent it relates to the Membership Interests so Transferred.

(g) The provisions of this Agreement relating to maintenance of Capital Accounts are intended to comply with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2, and will be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such Treasury Regulations or any successor provision.

Section 4.3. Additional Capital Contributions.

(a) Subject to Section 3.2(f), if the Managing Member determines that the Company requires additional capital to cover working capital, maintenance or capital expenditure needs of the Company, then the Managing Member shall call for additional Capital Contributions in cash (each such Capital Contribution, an "Additional Capital Contribution") from the Members in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in clause (b) below. Upon any such call for an Additional Capital Contribution, the Members shall contribute to the Company such Additional Capital Contribution as is designated by the Managing Member to be needed.

(b) Each such capital call, if any, shall consist of notice to each Member specifying the following:

(i) the total Additional Capital Contribution required from all Members and the purpose of the Additional Capital Contribution;

(ii) the amount of each Member's pro rata share of the Additional Capital Contribution required (allocated among the Members pro rata in accordance with the percentage of the Membership Interests held by each Member);

(iii) the date on which such Additional Capital Contribution is due (which shall not be less than 10 Business Days after the date that notice of such capital call is given pursuant to the notice provisions in Section 11.1); and

(iv) the account of the Company to which such Additional Capital Contribution should be made.

(c) If any Member (a "Non-Funding Member") fails to deliver to the Company any amount requested to be contributed by such Member pursuant to a capital call under this Section 4.3 within the time prescribed, the Managing Member may request the amount of such Non-Funding Member's share of the capital call from other Members, in which event, each other Member may, at its election, contribute to the Company such Non-Funding Member's Additional Capital Contribution. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall a Member have the obligation to fund any portion of a Non-Funding Member's Additional Capital Contribution.

Section 4.4. Dilution Mechanism. Notwithstanding Section 4.3(c) above, following a failure to make an Additional Capital Contribution by a Non-Funding Member, the Managing Member shall cause the units of Membership Interests of each Member to be adjusted accordingly by issuing additional units of Membership Interests to the Members who have funded their portion of such Additional Capital Contribution in an amount equal to the amount of the Additional Capital Contribution divided by the Fair Market Value of the units of Membership Interests as of the date such Additional Capital Contribution was made, and recording such issuance in the Register. For purposes of this Agreement, "Fair Market Value" means the value (a) unanimously agreed by the Members or (b) failing agreement within 15 Business Days, determined by a nationally-recognized independent financial advisor having specific expertise in the valuation of assets similar to the Membership Interests (the "Independent Appraiser") selected by the Members. The Independent Appraiser shall determine the Fair Market Value based on the following assumptions and bases: (i) the value that a third-party purchaser would pay in an arm's length sale between a willing seller and a willing purchaser, (ii) if the Company is carrying on business as a going concern, on the assumption that it will continue to do so, and (iii) taking into account any information that the Independent Appraiser reasonably thinks fit, including submissions from the Members, based on then current customary market practices for valuing geothermal assets similar to the Project. The Independent Appraiser shall determine the Fair Market Value within 20 Business Days after being engaged. In the event that the Independent Appraiser provides a range of values, then the Fair Market Value shall be deemed to be the mid-point of that range. The cost of the Independent Appraiser shall be borne equally by the Members.

Section 4.5. Additional Activities Contribution.

(a) Additional Project Commencement. Ormat, in its sole discretion, may determine to proceed with an expansion of the Don A. Campbell Project (the "Don A. Campbell Expansion").

(i) If Ormat determines to proceed with the Don A. Campbell Expansion, Ormat shall bear the cost of and be solely responsible for the development and construction thereof (which shall be performed pursuant to the Don A. Campbell Expansion EPC Agreement and the related purchase orders) and, on the 12^th Business Day after determination of the DAC Expansion Capital Contribution and satisfaction of the closing conditions set forth in Sections 2.4 and 2.5 of the ORNI 37 Purchase Agreement, (x) Ormat and the Company shall enter into the ORNI 37 Purchase Agreement pursuant to which Ormat will sell all of the membership interests of ORNI 37 to the Company and (y) the Members shall make a capital contribution (the "DAC Expansion Capital Contribution") in the manner described below.

(ii) The DAC Expansion Capital Contribution will be calculated on the basis of the generation capacity of the Don A. Campbell Project and the Don A. Campbell Expansion (collectively, the "Don A. Campbell Facility") demonstrated by the capacity tests (the "Capacity Tests"). Each Capacity Test shall be performed in accordance with the capacity test procedures set forth in Exhibit F attached hereto and mutually agreed to by the Members (the "Capacity Test Procedures"). The results of any Capacity Test conducted under this Section 4.5(a) will not be deemed final until the Independent Engineer confirms that (x) such Capacity Tests were performed in accordance with the Capacity Test Procedures and that (y) the results of such Capacity Test were correctly calculated.

(iii) The first Capacity Test will be conducted at the end of the second month following the Don A. Campbell 2 COD and the second Capacity Test will be conducted at the end of the fourth month following the Don A. Campbell 2 COD. If the average result of such Capacity Tests (the "First Tested Capacity") is less than or equal to 40.82 MW, but greater than or equal to 37.82 MW, then the "Final Tested Capacity" will be equal to the First Tested Capacity. If the First Tested Capacity is outside of the ranges described in the prior sentence, the Final Tested Capacity will be calculated in accordance with clauses (iv) and (v) below (as applicable).

(iv) If the First Tested Capacity is less than 37.82MW, Ormat shall be entitled, at its option (exercised in its sole discretion by providing written notice to the Company and Northleaf within 14 days from the end of the second Capacity Test described in clause (iii) above) to delay the transfer of ORNI 37 to the Company for a period of up to 12 months following the Don A. Campbell 2 COD. During such 12 month period, Ormat shall undertake at its sole cost and expense such additional work and investment as it may deem appropriate to improve the generation capacity of the Don A. Campbell Expansion (which costs and expenses shall not be funded from revenues received by ORNI 37 under the Don A. Campbell 2 PPA or otherwise or be deemed to be capital contributions, loans or other amounts contributed by Ormat to the Company, ORNI 47 or ORNI 37). At any time during such 12-month period, upon written notification by Ormat to the Company and Northleaf, a single Capacity Test will be performed, and the "Revised Tested Capacity" will be equal to the result of such Capacity Test.

(v) If the First Tested Capacity is lower than 37.82 MW but greater than or equal to 36.82 MW and Ormat has not exercised its option under clause (iv) above, then the Final Tested Capacity will be equal to the First Tested Capacity. If Ormat has exercised its option under clause (iv) and the Revised Tested Capacity is within a tolerance of plus/minus 2 MW of 38.82 MW, then the Final Tested Capacity will be equal to the Revised Tested Capacity.

(vi) If (x) the First Tested Capacity is higher than 40.82 MW or lower than 36.82 MW and Ormat has not exercised its option under clause (iv) above, or (y) if Ormat has exercised its option under clause (iv) above and the Revised Tested Capacity is higher than 40.82 MW or lower than 36.82 MW, then the Independent Engineer shall verify the validity of such First Tested Capacity or the Revised Tested Capacity (as applicable). If the Independent Engineer confirms the validity of such First Tested Capacity or the Revised Tested Capacity, then the Final Tested Capacity will be equal to such First Tested Capacity or the Revised Tested Capacity (as applicable). If the Independent Engineer invalidates the First Tested Capacity or the Revised Tested Capacity, a Capacity Test will be performed again in accordance with the Capacity Test Procedures until the Independent Engineer has validated the results of a Capacity Test, and the Final Tested Capacity will be equal to the result of such Capacity Test.

(vii) If the Final Tested Capacity is within a tolerance of plus/minus 1 MW of 38.82 MW, then the DAC Expansion Capital Contribution shall be $87.8 million, and each Member shall contribute its pro-rata share within twelve (12) Business days following the determination of the Final Tested Capacity.

(viii) If the Final Tested Capacity is not within a tolerance of plus/minus 1 MW of 38.82 MW, then the DAC Expansion Capital Contribution shall be equal to the sum of (x) $87.8 million plus (y) (1) Final Tested Capacity minus 38.82 MW times (2) $7.72 million per MW, and each Member shall contribute its pro-rata share within twelve (12) Business days following the determination of the Final Tested Capacity. All amounts contributed pursuant to clause (vii) or clause (viii) shall be used by the Company to pay the purchase price under the ORNI 37 Purchase Agreement.

(ix) If closing under the ORNI 37 Purchase Agreement occurs more than 90 days after the date on which the Don A. Campbell 2 COD occurs, Northleaf shall pay to the Company, in addition to its pro-rata share of the DAC Expansion Capital Contribution calculated in accordance with subclauses (vii) or (viii) of this Section 4.5(a) (the "Northleaf DAC Pro-Rata Amount"), in an amount equal to (x) the Northleaf DAC Pro-Rata Amount multiplied by (y) 8% multiplied by the number of days between the 91^st day after Don A. Campbell 2 COD and the date of satisfaction of the conditions precedent under the ORNI 37 Purchase Agreement divided by 365.

(x) (A) If Ormat and Northleaf have not agreed on a Tax Equity Transaction as of the closing date of the transfer of ORNI 37 to the Company and counsel to Northleaf has opined that the Don A. Campbell Expansion will qualify for the federal production tax credit under the rules and guidance promulgated by the IRS, the Class B Member's portion of the DAC Expansion Capital Contribution shall be increased by $3.1 million; provided, that if Northleaf owns less than 40% of the Membership Interests, such amount shall be adjusted by multiplying $3.1 million by a fraction, the numerator of which is the percentage of Membership Interests actually owned by Northleaf and the denominator of which is 40%. (B) Ormat and Northleaf agree to cooperate in good faith to achieve a mutually beneficial Tax Equity Transaction. If Ormat and Northleaf do not agree on a Tax Equity Transaction, and a Member, directly or indirectly through an Affiliate, desires to enter into a Tax Equity Transaction, then such Member shall first comply with its obligations under Section 9.5 as if such transaction was a Tag-Along Transfer and the other Member shall have the right to participate in such Tax Equity Transaction on the same terms. (C) If (i) Ormat and Northleaf have not agreed on a Tax Equity Transaction, (ii) counsel to Northleaf has not opined that the Don A. Campbell Expansion will qualify for the federal production tax credit under the rules and guidance promulgated by the IRS, and as result the Class B Member's portion of the DAC Expansion Capital Contribution has not been increased pursuant to sublcause (A) above, and (iv) Northleaf subsequently claims federal production tax credits with respect to the Don A. Campbell Expansion, Northleaf will pay to Ormat $3.1 million; provided, that if Northleaf owns less than 40% of the Membership Interests, such amount shall be adjusted by multiplying $3.1 million by a fraction, the numerator of which is the percentage of Membership Interests actually owned by Northleaf and the denominator of which is 40%.

(xi) Ormat shall remain solely responsible for the payment of any outstanding costs to complete any remaining items on the Punchlist (as defined in the Don A. Campbell Expansion EPC Agreement) after the purchase of ORNI 37 by the Company.

(xii) From the Don A. Campbell 2 COD and until the transfer of ORNI 37 to the Company, Ormat shall not permit ORNI 37 to, and shall cause ORNI 37 not to, make any Restricted Payment.

(b) Ormat may contribute additional projects to the Company on terms to be negotiated by the parties.

Section 4.6. Pre-Emptive Rights. If the Company proposes to issue any additional Membership Interests or other equity securities or interests convertible or exchangeable into Membership Interests ("New Equity Interests") by the Company (other than pursuant to Section 4.4), the Company shall give written notice (an "Issuance Notice") to each of the Members setting forth the material terms and conditions upon which they are proposed to be issued. Both Members will have the right to purchase a pro rata share of such New Equity Interests based upon their proportionate share of the Membership Interests in the Company at the time. Each of the Members may exercise such right by delivering an irrevocable written notice to the Company (the "Acceptance Notice"), within 10 Business Days after receiving the Issuance Notice from the Company (the "Preemptive Right Notice Period"), specifying the number of New Equity Interests (up to its pro rata portion of such New Equity Interests (based on its respective percentage of the Membership Interests)) that it desires to purchase upon the terms and conditions and for the purchase price set forth in the notice. The delivery of an Acceptance Notice shall be a binding and irrevocable offer by such Member to purchase the New Equity Interests described therein. If a Member has failed to exercise its preemptive rights in full (a "Non-Exercising Member"), each Member that has exercised its preemptive rights in full shall have the right to purchase its pro rata portion (based on its respective percentage of the Membership Interests) of the Non-Exercising Member's unpurchased allotment of New Equity Interests, by delivering an irrevocable written notice to the Company within 5 Business Days after receipt of notice from the Company.

Article V
ALLOCATIONS

Section 5.1. Allocations. For purposes of maintaining Capital Accounts, after giving effect to Section 5.2, Profits and Losses and credit for any Fiscal Year will be allocated among the Members pro rata in proportion to the Membership Interests held by each Member.

Section 5.2. Adjustments. The following adjustments will be made to the allocations in Section 5.1 to comply with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b):

(a) In any Fiscal Year in which there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain, income in the amount of the net decrease will be allocated to Members in the ratio required by Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2 or any successor provision.

(b) In any Fiscal Year in which there is a net decrease in Minimum Gain Attributable to Member Nonrecourse Debt, then income in the amount of the net decrease will be allocated to each Member who was considered to have had a share of such minimum gain at the beginning of the Fiscal Year in the ratio required by Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2)(ii) or any successor provisions.

(c) Any Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year will be specially allocated to the Member who bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the Member Nonrecourse Debt to which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(1). Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year will be allocated to the Members in the same ratio as other income and loss under Section 5.1 or Section 10.2(c) as applicable.

(d) To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Company asset pursuant to Section 734(b) or Section 743(b) of the Code is required under Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) or Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4) to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts as the result of a distribution to a Member in complete liquidation of such Member's interest in the Company, the amount of the adjustment to Capital Accounts will be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis) and the gain or loss will be specially allocated to the Members in accordance with Sections 5.2(a) or (b), as in effect at the time of the adjustment, in the event Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) applies, or to the Member to whom such distribution was made in the event Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4) applies.

(e) Items of income or gain for any taxable period shall be allocated to the Members in the manner and to the extent required by the "qualified income offset" provisions of Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d). In no event shall Losses of the Company be allocated to a Member if such allocation would cause or increase a negative balance in such Member's Capital Account (determined for purposes of this Section only, by increasing the Member's Capital Account balance by the amount the Member is obligated to restore to the Company pursuant to Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(c) and the amount the Member is deemed obligated to restore to the Company pursuant to Regulation Sections 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5)).

(f) The allocations in this Section 5.2 are required to comply with the Treasury Regulations. To the extent the Company can do so consistently with the Treasury Regulations, the net amount of the allocations under Article V and Section 10.2 to each Member will be the net amount that would have been allocated to each Member if this Agreement did not have Section 5.2.

Section 5.3. Tax Allocations.

(a) All allocations of tax items of Company income, gain, deductions and losses for each Fiscal Year will be allocated in the same proportions as the allocations of book items of Company income, gain, deductions and losses were made for such Fiscal Year pursuant to Sections 5.1 and 5.2.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 5.3(a), if, as a result of contributions of property by a Member to the Company or an adjustment to the Gross Asset Value of Company assets pursuant to this Agreement, there exists a variation between the adjusted basis of an item of Company property for federal income tax purposes and as determined under the definition of Gross Asset Value, then allocations of income, gain, loss, and deduction will be allocated among the Members so as to take into account any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for federal income tax purposes and its initial Gross Asset Value using the traditional method in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-3(b).

(c) Allocations pursuant to this Section 5.3 are solely for purposes of federal, state and local taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Member's Capital Account or share of income, gain, deductions or losses or distributions pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement.

(d) To the extent that an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Company asset is made pursuant to Section 743(b) of the Code as the result of a purchase of a Membership Interest in the Company, any adjustment to the depreciation, amortization, gain or loss resulting from such adjustment shall affect the transferee only and shall not affect the Capital Account of the transferor or transferee. In such case, the transferee shall be required to agree to provide to the Company (i) information about the allocation of any step-up or step-down in basis to the Company's assets and (ii) the depreciation or amortization method for any step-up in basis to the Company's assets.

Section 5.4. Transfer or Change in Company Interest. If the respective Membership Interests or allocation ratios described in this Article V of the existing Members in the Company change or if a Membership Interest is Transferred in compliance with this Agreement to any other Person, then, for the Fiscal Year in which the change or Transfer occurs, all income, gains, losses, deductions, credits and other tax incidents resulting from the operations of the Company shall be allocated, as between the Members for the Fiscal Year in which the change occurs or between the transferor and transferee, by taking into account their varying interests using the proration method permitted by Treasury Regulation Section 1.706-1(c)(2)(ii), unless otherwise agreed by all the Members.

Section 5.5. Other Allocation Rules.

(a) For purposes of determining the amount of any item of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit allocable to any period, such items shall be determined on a quarterly basis (and prorating the items in such quarterly period to each day within such quarterly period), unless another method is required under Section 706 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder or expressly agreed to by the Members.

(b) The Company shall allocate 100% of the "excess nonrecourse liabilities" of the Company for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.752-3(a) in the ratio in which Profits and Losses are shared under Section 5.1.

(c) For any Fiscal Year, if a distribution is paid to any Member pursuant to Section 6.5 that varies from what such Member would have been distributed without regard to Section 6.5, then the Company shall increase or decrease its allocation of income and deductions to such Member (with a corresponding increase or decrease with respect to the other Member) to reflect such variation in the amount distributed; provided, the foregoing shall not apply to the extent such allocation would result in (i) an allocation of any Tax credits provided for in Sections 45 or 48 of the Code pertaining to the Don A. Campbell Expansion other than in proportion to the Membership Interest held by each Member or (ii) recapture of any such federal income Tax credit; provided, further, the previous proviso shall be inapplicable to the extent the Don A. Campbell Expansion is subject to a Tax Equity Transaction between the Company or a subsidiary of the Company and one or more investors, purchasers or lessees.

Article VI
DISTRIBUTIONS

Section 6.1. Distributions. Except as provided otherwise in Section 10.2 and subject to Section 6.3, Section 6.4 and Section 6.5, Distributable Cash will be distributed to the Members pro rata in proportion to the Membership Interests held by each such Member.

(a) Subject to Section 6.3, the Company will make distributions of Distributable Cash pursuant to this Section 6.1 on each Distribution Date.

Section 6.2. Withholding Taxes. If the Company is required to withhold taxes with respect to any allocation or distribution of Distributable Cash to any Member pursuant to any applicable federal, state or local tax laws, the Company may, after first notifying the Member and permitting the Member, if legally permitted, to contest the applicability of such taxes, withhold such amounts and make such payments to taxing authorities as are necessary to ensure compliance with such tax laws. Any funds withheld by reason of this Section 6.2 shall nonetheless be deemed distributed to the Member in question for all purposes under this Agreement. If the Company did not withhold from actual distributions Distributable Cash any amounts it was required to withhold, the Company may, at its option, (a) require the Member to which the withholding was credited to reimburse the Company for such withholding, or (b) reduce any subsequent distributions of Distributable Cash by the amount of such withholding. This obligation of a Member to reimburse the Company for taxes that were required to be withheld shall continue after such Member Transfers its Membership Interests in the Company. Each Member agrees to furnish the Company with any representations and forms as shall reasonably be requested by the Company to assist it in determining the extent of, and in fulfilling, any withholding obligations it may have.

Section 6.3. Limitation upon Distributions. No distribution or deemed distribution of Distributable Cash shall be made: (a) if such distribution would violate any contract or agreement to which the Company is then a party or any Applicable Law then applicable to the Company, (b) to the extent that, in accordance with the Prudent Operator Standard, any amount otherwise distributable should be retained by the Company to pay, or to establish a reserve for the payment of, any liability or obligation of the Company or any Project Company, whether liquidated, fixed, contingent or otherwise, or to hedge an existing investment, including funding reserve accounts for spare parts and operational and maintenance costs for the Projects, or (c) to the extent that the Managing Member, acting in accordance with the Prudent Operator Standard, determines that the Distributable Cash is insufficient to permit such distribution.

Section 6.4. Special Ormat Distribution. Notwithstanding anything in the agreement to the contrary, all distributions following the Closing shall be made to Ormat, until Ormat has received $1 million, and thereafter, all distributions shall be made in accordance with this Article 6.

Section 6.5. Special Puna Distributions. On the Effective Date, the initial values of the Puna Class A Tracking Amount and Puna Class B Tracking Amount will be calculated in accordance with Sections 6.5(a) and 6.5(b) with respect to each payment received from HELCO prior to the Effective Date relating to invoicing periods beginning on January 1, 2015. Thereafter, (x) upon PGV's receipt of any payment from HELCO made under the Puna On-Peak/Off-Peak PPA, excluding any payments made under any extension thereof, relating to any invoicing period beginning on January 1, 2015 and ending upon the termination of the Puna On-Peak/Off-Peak PPA (a "PGV Special Revenue Payment") or (y) each distribution made to Members, the Puna Class A Tracking Amount and the Puna Class B Tracking Amount shall be recalculated as follows:

(a) Immediately following each PGV Special Revenue Payment, if such amount paid by HELCO for electricity delivered under the Puna On-Peak/Off-Peak PPA (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any capacity payment) is higher than the product of (w) the MWh delivered to HELCO under the Puna On-Peak/Off-Peak PPA during such applicable invoice period(s), multiplied by (x) the applicable fixed price per MWh shown in the Puna Fixed Price Table, then the Puna Class A Tracking Amount shall be increased by an amount equal to (A) (y) such positive excess minus (z) the absolute value of any increase in the variable expense items incurred by PGV during such invoice period(s) that is attributable to the excess amounts paid by HELCO relating to such invoice period(s) (including, without limitation, royalties and taxes), multiplied by (B) the Class B Percentage Interest, with such amount never being less than zero;

(b) Immediately following each PGV Special Revenue Payment, if such amount paid by HELCO for electricity delivered under the Puna On-Peak/Off-Peak PPA (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any capacity payment) is lower than the product of (w) the MWh delivered to HELCO under the Puna On-Peak/Off-Peak PPA during such applicable invoice period(s), multiplied by (x) the applicable fixed price per MWh shown in the Puna Fixed Price Table, then the Puna Class B Tracking Amount shall be increased by an amount equal to (A) (y) the absolute value of such differential, minus (z) the absolute value of any decrease in the variable expense items incurred by PGV during such invoice period that is attributable to the reduced amounts paid by HELCO relating to such invoice period(s) (including, without limitation, royalties and taxes), multiplied by (B) the Class B Percentage Interest, with such amount never being less than zero;

(c) Any Puna Class A Tracking Amount and Puna Class B Tracking Amount that are outstanding as of any date of calculation, shall be set-off against each other immediately following any calculation undertaken in accordance with clause (a) and (b) above, such that at all times one of either the Puna Class A Tracking Amount or the Puna Class B Tracking Amount shall be equal to zero;

(d) Upon each Distribution Date, if the Puna Class A Tracking Amount is greater than zero, then any Distributable Cash available on the applicable Distribution Date will be distributed:

(i) to the Class A Member, in an amount equal to (x) the Class A Percentage Interest multiplied by the Distributable Cash available on the applicable Distribution Date plus (y) the Puna Class A Tracking Amount(with the aggregate amount under clauses (x) and (y) not to exceed the amount of available Distributable Cash);

(ii) to the Class B Member, in an amount equal to (x) the Class B Percentage Interest multiplied by the Distributable Cash available on the applicable Distribution Date minus (y) the Puna Class A Tracking Amount (with the aggregate amount under clauses (x) and (y) to be not less than zero);

(e) Upon each Distribution Date, if the Puna Class B Tracking Amount is greater than zero, then any Distributable Cash available on the applicable Distribution Date will be distributed:

(i) to the Class A Member, in an amount equal to (x) the Class A Percentage Interest multiplied by the Distributable Cash available on the applicable Distribution Date minus (y) the Puna Class B Tracking Amount (with the aggregate amount under clauses (x) and (y) to be not less than zero);

(ii) to the Class B Member, in an amount equal to (x) the Class B Percentage Interest multiplied by the Distributable Cash available on the applicable Distribution Date plus (y) the Puna Class B Tracking Amount (with the aggregate amount under clauses (x) and (y) not to exceed the amount of available Distributable Cash);

(f) Immediately following any distribution made to the Members, the Puna Class A Tracking Amount and the Puna Class B Tracking Amount will be reset to zero; provided that if, on any applicable Distribution Date, available Distributable Cash is insufficient to pay in full the Puna Class A Tracking Amount pursuant to subclause (d)(i) above or the Puna Class B Tracking Amount pursuant to subclause (e)(i) above, such unpaid amount will be carried forward as an outstanding Puna Class A Tracking Amount or Puna Class B Tracking Amount, as applicable, and shall be taken into account for purposes of any subsequent calculation in accordance with clauses (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) of this Section 6.5.

(g) No later than 14 days following the Effective Date, upon each Distribution Date and no later than 10 days following each payment by HELCO with respect to the applicable invoice period, the Managing Member shall provide each of the Class A Member and the Class B Member with a copy of its updated calculation of the Puna Class A Tracking Amount and the Puna Class B Tracking Amount in accordance with this Section 6.5.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a deficit Capital Account of a Member shall not be deemed to be a liability of such Member nor an asset or property of the Company.

If at any time after the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, a Member (the "Selling Member") desires to Transfer any of its Membership Interests to a Third Person, it shall first give written notice to the other Member (the "Offering Member") of such desire and request a ROFO Offer (as defined below) from the Offering Member (such notice, a "Transfer Request"); provided, that any Transfer of Ormat's Membership Interests that would otherwise result from a direct or indirect (including by operation of law or otherwise) acquisition, merger, change of control or other like transaction with respect to Ormat or a parent entity of Ormat shall not be subject to this Section 9.4.

(b) Delivery of ROFO Offer. The Offering Member (or any Affiliate of any the Offering Member designated by it) shall have the right, for a period of 45 calendar days after receipt of a Transfer Request, to inform the Selling Member in writing of its offer to purchase the subject Membership Interest, specifying the price (the "Specified Price") and other terms (the "Specified Terms") of such offer (such notice, the "ROFO Offer"). Any ROFO Offer, if given, shall be irrevocable.

(c) Acceptance or Refusal by the Selling Member. The Selling Member shall have the right, for a period of 30 calendar days after receipt of a ROFO Offer, to elect by written notice to the Offering Member that delivered the ROFO Offer to (i) accept the Offering Member's offer to purchase the subject Membership Interests at the Specified Price and on the Specified Terms or (ii) Transfer the subject Membership Interests to a Third Person; provided, that the price offered by such Third Person is higher than the Specified Price and the other applicable terms offered by such Third Person are, when taken as a whole, better than the Specified Terms (such price and terms to be described in the notice). If the Transfer described in the notice given pursuant to Section 9.4(c)(ii) is not consummated within 120 calendar days from delivery of such election notice by the Selling Member, then any subsequent Transfer by such Selling Member of the subject Membership Interests shall again be subject to the right of first offer as set forth in this Section 9.4.

(d) Timing of Closing of ROFO Transfer. The closing of the Transfer of the subject Membership Interests pursuant to Section 9.4(c)(i) shall occur no later than 120 calendar days after the notice of election to accept the ROFO Offer is given pursuant to Section 9.4(c) or such later date as may be required to obtain any applicable governmental consents or approvals, or to satisfy any reporting or waiting period under any Applicable Laws, or at such other time as the parties agree.

(e) Closing of ROFO Transfer. If the ROFO Offer is exercised, at the closing of the Transfer, (i) the Offering Member shall pay (by wire transfer of immediately available United States dollars to such United States bank accounts as the Selling Member may designate in a written notice to the Company and the Offering Member no later than 5 Business Days prior to the closing date for the Transfer pursuant to the ROFO Offer) an amount equal to the cash price of the subject Membership Interests set forth in the ROFO Offer and (ii) the Selling Member that gave the Transfer Request shall: (x) Transfer to the Offering Member all right, title and interest in and to the Membership Interests, free and clear of all Encumbrances other than Permitted Encumbrances; (y) be deemed to have made the representations set forth on Schedule 9.4(e) attached hereto to each of the Offering Member and the Company; and (z) take all such further actions and execute, acknowledge and deliver all such further documents that are necessary to effectuate the Transfer of the subject Membership Interests contemplated by this Section 9.4(e). Upon the closing of such Transfer, (A) all of the Selling Member's obligations and liabilities associated with the subject Membership Interests which are the subject of such Transfer will terminate except those obligations and liabilities accrued through the date of such closing, (B) such Selling Member shall have no further rights as a Member in respect of the Membership Interests which are the subject of such Transfer, and (C) all the rights, obligations and liabilities associated with the Membership Interests which are the subject of such Transfer shall become the rights, obligations and liabilities of the Offering Member acquiring such Membership Interests.

(f) Transfer to Third Parties. If the Offering Member (or its Affiliates) have not given a ROFO Offer by the time required under Section 9.4(b), then thereafter for a period of 120 calendar days the Selling Member that gave the Transfer Request may Transfer its Membership Interests to a Third Person in accordance with the other provisions of this Article IX. If such Transfer is not consummated within such 120 day period, then any subsequent Transfer by the Selling Member of its Membership Interests shall again be subject to the right of first offer as set forth in this Section 9.4.

(g) ROFO Inapplicable to Transfers between Affiliates or Foreclosure Event. A proposed Transfer between one Member to another Member, or to or between a Member and its Affiliates, or in connection with a Foreclosure Event shall not be subject to the right of first offer as set forth in this Section 9.4.

Section 9.5. Tag-Along Sale.

(a) If at any time after the expiration of the Lock-Up Period (i) the Class A Member receives, and intends to accept, a dated, bona fide third party offer ("Third Party Offer") to acquire 50% or more of the Class A Member's Class A Membership Interests, and (ii) the proposed Transfer is to be made to someone who is not an Affiliate of the Class A Member (each Transfer that meets the conditions of (i) and (ii) being called a "Tag-Along Transfer"), the Class B Member shall have the right (the "Tag-Along Right") to participate in the Tag-Along Transfer with respect to a corresponding percentage of its Class B Membership Interests (with the Class A Membership Interests proposed to be sold by the Class A Members being called the "Tagged Membership Interests" and, the Class B Membership Interests proposed to be sold by the Class B Members being called the "Tag-Along Membership Interests").

(b) The Class A Member shall send written notice (the "Tag-Along Notice") to the Company and the Class B Member of the Third Party Offer and proposed Tag-Along Transfer within 10 days after receiving the Third Party Offer, including, without limitation, all consideration to be paid and the identity of the proposed transferee(s). If the B Class Member desires to exercise the Tag-Along Right that became exercisable as a result of such proposed Tag-Along Transfer, it shall give written notice to the Company (a "Tag-Along Election Notice"), within 30 days after the Tag-Along Notice, that such Member desires to sell its Tag-Along Membership Interests. Failure of the Class B Member to deliver such a Tag-Along Exercise Notice by such date shall be deemed to constitute an election by it not to exercise such Tag-Along Right.

(c) If the Class B Member properly gives the Tag-Along Election Notice, it shall have the right to sell its Class B Membership Interests in the Tag-Along Transfer (each, a "Tag-Along Participant").

(d) The delivery of a Tag-Along Election Notice shall constitute an irrevocable commitment by a Tag-Along Participant to sell its respective Tag-Along Membership Interests for its proportionate share of the consideration specified in the Tag-Along Notice unless a determination not to proceed with the Tag-Along Transfer is made by mutual agreement among the proposed transferee, the Class A Member, and the Tag-Along Participants.

(e) The Class A Member shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the agreement of the prospective transferee(s) to the participation of the Tag-Along Participants. The Class A Member shall not Transfer any Class A Membership Interests to the prospective transferee(s) if the prospective transferee(s) refuse to purchase the Tag-Along Membership Interests assigned to each such Tag-Along Participant. After compliance with this Section 9.5, each Tag-Along Participant shall be permitted to Transfer its Tag-Along Membership Interests to the prospective transferee(s) on terms no more advantageous to them than those specified in the Tag-Along Notice, with each Tag-Along Participant providing the same representations, warranties and indemnifications as the Class A Member, except that the liability of any Tag-Along Participant for breach of representations or warranties or for indemnification payments will be several, and not joint, will be proportionate to the proceeds received or receivable by it in the Tag-Along Transfer (unless the obligation arises from a representation, warranty, or covenant unique to such Tag-Along Participant (e.g., title to its the Tag-Along Membership Interests)), and will be limited to any net proceeds received or receivable by it in the Tag-Along Transfer.

(f) Each of the Tag-Along Participants shall assist in effecting the Tag-Along Transfer, pursuant to the terms and conditions specified in the Tag-Along Notice, of its Tag-Along Membership Interests.

Section 9.6. Regulatory and Other Authorizations and Consents.

(a) In connection with any Transfer pursuant to Section 9.4 or 9.5 (the "Designated Transfer"), each Member involved shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all authorizations, consents, orders and approvals of, give all notices to and make all filings with, all Governmental Authorities and third parties that may be or become necessary for the Designated Transfer, its execution and delivery of, and the performance of its obligations under, this Agreement or other Transaction Documents in connection with any such Designated Transfer and will cooperate fully with the other Members in promptly seeking to obtain all such authorizations, consents, orders and approvals, giving such notices and making such filings, including the provision to such third parties and Governmental Authorities of such financial statements and other publicly available financial information with respect to such Member as such third parties or Governmental Authorities may reasonably request; provided, however, that no Member involved shall have any obligation to pay any consideration to obtain any such consents. In addition, the Members involved shall keep each other reasonably apprised of their efforts to obtain necessary consents and waivers from third parties or Governmental Authorities and the responses of such third parties and Governmental Authorities to requests to provide such consents and waivers.

(b) Without limiting the generality of Section 9.6(a), each Member shall make such filings, if any, as may be required under the HSR Act, the Federal Power Act, as amended, or any state Applicable Laws relating to the ownership or control of the Company, the Project Companies, or the Projects.

(i) To the extent required by the HSR Act, each Member involved in a Designated Transfer shall (x) file or cause to be filed, as promptly as practicable but in no event later than the 15^th Business Day after the delivery of any ROFO Offer or Tag-Along Notice, as applicable (each, a "Transfer Notice"), with the Federal Trade Commission and the United States Department of Justice, all reports and other documents required to be filed by such Member under the HSR Act concerning the Designated Transfer and (y) promptly comply with or cause to be complied with any requests by the Federal Trade Commission or the United States Department of Justice for additional information concerning the Designated Transfer, in each case so that the initial 30 day waiting period applicable under the HSR Act shall expire as soon as practicable. Each Member involved in a Designated Transfer agrees to request, and to cooperate with the other Members involved in requesting, early termination of any applicable waiting period under the HSR Act. Each of the Members involved in a Designated Transfer shall be responsible for the filing fees incurred by all Members involved in the Designated Transfer in connection with the initial filings required by the HSR Act in connection with the Designated Transfers (pro rata in the proportion that the number of Membership Interests of each such Member bears to the total number of Membership Interests involved in the Designated Transfer). Except as expressly provided in the prior sentence with respect to filing fees, each Member involved in a Designated Transfer will be responsible for its own fees and expenses, including any fees and expenses of counsel, accountants or other professional advisors.

(ii) To the extent required by the Federal Power Act, each Member involved in a Designated Transfer shall (x) file or cause to be filed, as promptly as practicable but in no event later than the 21st Business Day after the delivery of any Transfer Notice, an application for approval of the Designated Transfer pursuant to Section 203(a)(1) of the Federal Power Act, and (y) as promptly as practicable but in no event later than the tenth Business Day after the delivery of any Transfer Notice, provide to the Company and the Managing Member information needed for the Company and/or the Managing Member to file an application for approval of the Designated Transfer under Section 203(a)(2) of the Federal Power Act.

Section 9.7. Admission. Any transferee of all or part of any Membership Interests pursuant to a Transfer made in accordance with this Agreement shall be admitted to the Company as a Member upon its execution of a counterpart to this Agreement.

Article X
DISSOLUTION AND WINDING-UP

Section 10.1. Events of Dissolution. The Company shall be dissolved and its affairs shall be wound up upon the first to occur of any of the following:

(a) the written consent of the Members representing a unanimous vote to dissolve and terminate the Company;

(b) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution under Section 18-802 of the Act;

(d) the issuance of a final, nonappealable court order which makes it unlawful for the business of the Company to be carried on; or

(e) at any time there are no Members of the Company unless the business of the Company is continued in accordance with the Act.

Section 10.2. Distribution of Assets.

(a) The Members hereby appoint the Managing Member to act as the liquidator upon the occurrence of one of the events in Section 10.1. Upon the occurrence of such an event, the liquidator will proceed diligently to wind up the affairs of the Company and make final distributions as provided herein and in the Act. The liquidator may sell, and will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the best possible price for, any or all Company property, including to Members.

(b) The liquidator will first pay, satisfy or discharge from Company funds all of the debts, liabilities and obligations of the Company (including the Working Capital Loans, and all expenses incurred in liquidation) or otherwise make adequate provision for payment and discharge thereof (including the establishment of a cash escrow fund for contingent, conditional or unmatured liabilities in such amount and for such term as the liquidator may reasonably determine) in the order of priority as provided by law. In no event, without the unanimous approval of the Members, will a sale to a Member be for an amount that is less than Fair Market Value.

(c) Following the distribution in Section 10.2(b), all assets of the Company will be treated as if sold and any gain or loss treated as realized on those assets will be allocated pro rata in proportion to the Membership Interests held by each Member first to Members with deficits in their Adjusted Capital Accounts (in the ratio of the deficits if more than one Member's Adjusted Capital Account is in deficit) in order to eliminate the deficits and then pro rata in proportion to the Membership Interests held by such Member.

(d) After the allocations in clauses (c) have been made, then Distributable Cash and property will be distributed pro rata to the Members in the amount of the positive balances in their Capital Accounts by the end of the Tax Year during which the liquidation occurs (or, if later, within 90 days after the date of such liquidation).

(e) The distribution of Distributable Cash and property to a Member in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.2 constitutes a complete return to the Member of its Capital Contributions and a complete distribution to the Member on its Membership Interests in the Company of all the Company's property and constitutes a compromise to which all Members have consented within the meaning of Section 18-502(b) of the Act. If the assets of the Company remaining after the payment or discharge of the debts and liabilities of the Company are insufficient to return Capital Contributions of each Member, such Member shall have no recourse against the Company or any other Member.

(f) If a Member has a deficit balance in its Capital Account (after giving effect to all contributions, distributions and allocations for all Tax Years including the Tax Year in which the liquidation and dissolution occurs) the Member shall be obligated to contribute cash to the Company in an amount equal to such deficit balance by the end of the Tax Year of the Company during which the liquidation of the Company occurs, or if later, within 90 days after the date of such liquidation; provided, that the amount a Member is required to contribute under this Section 10.2(f) shall not exceed the amount necessary to ensure that tax credits are not reallocated to the other Members.

Section 10.3. In-Kind Distributions. There shall be no distribution of assets of the Company in kind without the unanimous approval of the Members.

Section 10.4. Certificate of Cancellation.

(a) When all debts, liabilities and obligations have been paid and discharged or adequate provisions have been made therefor and all of the remaining property and assets have been distributed to the Members, a certificate of cancellation shall be executed and filed by the liquidator with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, which certificate shall set forth the information required by Section 18-203 of the Act.

(b) Upon the filing of the certificate of cancellation, the existence of the Company shall cease.

Article XI
MISCELLANEOUS

Section 11.1. Notices. Unless otherwise provided herein, any offer, acceptance, election, approval, consent, certification, request, waiver, notice or other communication required or permitted to be given hereunder (collectively referred to as a "Notice"), shall be in writing and deemed given if delivered personally, by a nationally-recognized overnight courier, by facsimile, email, or mailed by registered or certified mail (return receipt requested) directed to the intended recipient at the address of such Member set forth on Schedule 4.2(d) attached hereto (as applicable) or at such other address as any Member hereafter may designate to the others in accordance with a Notice under this Section 11.1. A Notice and other communications given in accordance herewith shall be deemed given (a) on the date of delivery, if hand delivered, (b) on the date of receipt, if faxed or emailed (provided a hard copy of such transmission is dispatched by first class mail within 48 hours), (c) 3 Business Days after the date of mailing, if mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, and (d) 1 Business Day after the date of sending, if sent by a nationally-recognized overnight courier; provided, that a notice given in accordance with this Section 11.1 but received on any day other than a Business Day or after business hours in the place of receipt, will be deemed given on the next Business Day in that place.

Section 11.2. Amendment. Except for an amendment of Schedule 4.2(d) hereto in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and a Transfer of Membership Interests and the admission of a new Member in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, this Agreement may be changed, modified or amended only by an instrument in writing duly executed by all of the Members.

Section 11.3. Partition. Each of the Members hereby irrevocably waives, to the extent it may lawfully do so, any right that such Member may have to maintain any action for partition with respect to the Company property.

Section 11.4. Waivers and Modifications. Any waiver or consent, express, implied or deemed, to or of any breach or default by any Person in the performance by that Person of its obligations with respect to the Company or any action inconsistent with this Agreement is not a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or default in the performance by that Person of the same or any other obligations of that Person with respect to the Company or any other such action. Failure on the part of a Person to insist in any one or more instances upon strict performance of any provisions of this Agreement, to take advantage of any of its rights hereunder, or to declare any Person in default with respect to the Company, irrespective of how long that failure continues, does not constitute a waiver by that Person of its rights with respect to that Person or its rights with respect to that default until the applicable statute of limitations period has lapsed. All waivers and consents hereunder shall be in writing duly executed by the Members affected by such waiver or consent and shall be delivered to the other Members in the manner set forth in Section 11.1.

Section 11.5. Severability. Except as otherwise provided in the succeeding sentence, every term and provision of this Agreement is intended to be severable, and if any term or provision of this Agreement is illegal or invalid for any reason whatsoever, such illegality or invalidity shall not affect the legality or validity of the remainder of this Agreement. The preceding sentence shall be of no force or effect if the consequence of enforcing the remainder of this Agreement without such illegal or invalid terms or provision would be to cause any Party to lose the benefit of its economic bargain.

Section 11.6. Successors; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is binding on and inures to the benefit of the Members and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns. Nothing in this Agreement shall provide any benefit to any third party or entitle any third party to any Claim, cause of action, remedy or right of any kind, it being the intent of the Members that this Agreement shall not be construed as a third-party beneficiary contract. To the full extent permitted by law, no creditor or other third party having dealings with the Company shall have the right to pursue any other right or remedy hereunder or at law or in equity, it being understood and agreed that the provisions of this Agreement shall be solely for the benefit of, and may be enforced solely by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. None of the rights of the Members herein set forth to make Capital Contributions or loans to the Company shall be deemed an asset of the Company for any purpose by any creditor or other third party, nor may such rights or obligations be sold, transferred or assigned by the Company or pledged or encumbered by the Company to secure any debt or other obligation of the Company or of any of the Members.

Section 11.7. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the Schedules, Annexes and Exhibits attached hereto or incorporated herein by reference constitute the entire agreement of the Members with respect to the matters covered herein. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and oral understandings among the parties hereto with respect to such matters.

Section 11.8. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, excluding any conflict of laws rule or principle that might refer the governance or construction of this Agreement to the law of another jurisdiction.

Section 11.9. Further Assurances.

Section 11.10. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which together will constitute one instrument, binding upon all parties hereto, notwithstanding that all of such parties may not have executed the same counterpart.

Section 11.11. Dispute Resolution.

(a) In the event a dispute, controversy or claim arises hereunder, other than any difference or disagreement over approval of a Major Decision described in clauses (b) through (r) of the definition of Major Decision (a "Dispute"), the aggrieved party will promptly provide written notification of the Dispute to the other party within 10 days after such Dispute arises. A meeting will be held promptly between the parties, attended by representatives of the parties with decision-making authority regarding the Dispute, to attempt in good faith to negotiate a resolution of the Dispute. If the parties are not successful in resolving any Dispute within 21 days, the Dispute will thereafter be resolved in accordance with Sections 11.11(b), 11.11(c) or 11.11(d), as applicable.

(b) If the Dispute arises under Section 4.5(a)(ii), Section 7.1(b) or Section 7.1(c) and involves the resolution of (x) a failure to agree on the Capacity Test Procedures, (y) the approval of an Annual Operating Budget with expenditures exceeding the O&M Variance or (z) the approval of Major Capital Expenditures, the Independent Engineer will provide binding resolution of the Dispute.

(c) Arbitration. If the Parties fail for any reason to resolve the Dispute as provided in Section 11.11(a) (or any mutually agreed extension) and resolution of such Dispute is not provided for in Sections 11.11(b) or 11.11(d), the Parties agree to arbitrate the Dispute using the following procedures:

(i) At the request of either Party upon written notice to that effect to the other Party (a "Demand"), the Dispute shall be finally settled by binding arbitration before a panel of three (3) arbitrators in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") then in effect, except as modified herein and unless the Parties agree otherwise in writing, provided that disputes regarding contributions shall be settled in accordance with the Expedited Procedures of the Commercial Dispute Resolutions Procedures of the AAA. The Demand must include statements of the facts and circumstances surrounding the Dispute, the legal obligation breached by the other Party, the amount in controversy and the requested relief accompanied by documents supporting the Demand.

(ii) Arbitration shall be held in New York City, New York. The arbitration shall be governed by the United States Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1 et seq.

(iii) Each Party shall select one (1) arbitrator within ten (10) days of the receipt of the Demand, or if a Party fails to make such selection within ten (10) days from the receipt of the Demand, the AAA shall make such appointment. The two (2) arbitrators thus appointed shall select the third arbitrator, who shall act as the chairman of the panel. If the two arbitrators fail to agree on a third arbitrator within fifteen (15) days of the selection of the second arbitrator, the AAA shall make such appointment from its National Roster in accordance with its rules.

(iv) The award shall be determined by majority vote. The award shall be in writing (stating the award and the reasons therefor) and shall be final and binding upon the Parties, and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy between the Parties regarding any Disputes, counterclaims, or accountings presented to the arbitral panel. The arbitral panel shall be authorized in its discretion to grant pre-award and post-award interest at commercial rates, except to the extent that applicable interest rates are otherwise provided herein. Judgment upon any award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. For purposes of a pre-arbitral injunction, pre-arbitral attachment or other order in aid of arbitration proceedings, the Parties hereby agree to submit to the jurisdiction of the United States federal courts located in, and the local courts of, the State of New York. Each of the Parties irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection it may now or hereafter have to the jurisdiction of such courts or the laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Each of the Parties hereby consents to service of process by registered mail or receipted courier at its address set forth herein and agrees that its submission to jurisdiction and its consent to service of process by mail is made for the express benefit of the other Party.

(v) This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the Parties hereunder shall remain in full force and effect pending the award in any arbitration proceeding hereunder.

(vi) Unless otherwise ordered by the arbitrators, each Party shall bear its own costs and fees, including attorneys' fees and expenses. The Parties expressly agree that the arbitrators shall have no power to consider or award any form of damages barred by Section 3.6.

(vii) The Parties, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Laws, hereby irrevocably waive and exclude any recourse to the court system other than to enforce the agreement to arbitrate pursuant to this Section 11.11, for attachment, or other order in aid of arbitration proceedings or to enforce the award of the arbitral panel.

(d) Buy-Sell. If the Dispute involves the resolution of the approval of any Major Decision set forth in clauses (a) or (s) of the definition of Major Decision which is not resolved in accordance with Section 11.11(a), then either Member (in such capacity, the "Proposing Member"), may deliver a written notice ("Buyout Notice") to the Company and the other Member (the "Receiving Member") stating that, at the Receiving Member's option, the Receiving Member may either sell all of the Receiving Member's Membership Interests to the Proposing Member or purchase all of the Proposing Member's Membership Interest for the cash price set forth in the Buyout Notice. Upon delivery of the Buyout Notice, the Receiving Member's right to deliver a Buyout Notice shall be suspended.

(i) The Receiving Member shall, within 10 Business Days after receipt of the Buyout Notice, deliver written notice (the "Buyout Response") to the Proposing Member stating whether it will sell all of its Membership Interests to the Proposing Member or purchase all of the Proposing Member's Membership Interests for the price set forth in the Buyout Notice. If the Receiving Member does not timely deliver a Buyout Response, the Proposing Member shall have the right to make the election to purchase the Receiving Member's Membership Interests or sell the Proposing Member's Membership Interests to the Receiving Member for the purchase price set forth in the Buyout Notice. If the Proposing Member does not timely deliver such election within 10 Business Days after the date on which the Buyout Response was due, the Buyout Notice shall expire and neither Member shall be obligated to purchase or sell the Membership Interests purchase to this Section 11.11(d) without the issuance of a new Buyout Notice in accordance with this Section 11.11(d). The purchase and sale of the Membership Interests shall be completed as soon as reasonably practicable after delivery of the Buyout Response or the Proposing Member's election, as applicable, and the Members and the Company shall take all actions and execute all documents reasonably required to consummate such purchase. Each Member shall continue its performance as a Member until the purchase and sale under this Section 11.11(d) has been completed.

(ii) The procedure set forth in this Section 11.11(d) shall be the exclusive remedy for resolving any deadlock regarding a Dispute over the approval of a Major Decision set forth in clauses (a) or (s) of the definition of Major Decision, provided, that the Members shall have the right to continue good faith negotiations regarding such deadlock after delivery of a Buyout Notice. If the Members reach a resolution of such deadlock after delivery of a Buyout Notice or Buyout Response, as applicable, then the Proposing Member or the Receiving Member, as applicable, shall cancel the Buyout Notice. During any period in which a deadlock continues, the Members shall continue to operate the Company in good faith and to the best of their abilities consistent with past practices and the Annual Operating Budget. If no Buyout Notice is delivered, the Members shall try to resolve the deadlock issue pursuant to good faith negotiations.

Section 11.12. Confidentiality.

Additionally, the Parties may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitations of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to it relating to such tax treatment and tax structure; provided, however, that no party hereto shall be permitted to disclose such tax treatment in violation of federal or state securities laws. The preceding sentence is intended to cause the transactions contemplated hereby to be treated as not having been offered under conditions of confidentiality for purposes of Treasury Regulations Section 1.6011-4(b)(3) (or any successor provision) promulgated under Section 6011 of the Code, and shall be construed in a manner consistent with such purpose. If such party becomes compelled by legal or administrative process to disclose any Confidential Information, such party will provide the other Members with prompt Notice so that the other Members may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy or waive compliance with the non-disclosure provisions of this Section 11.12 with respect to the information required to be disclosed. If such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or such other Members waive compliance with the non-disclosure provisions of this Section 11.12 with respect to the information required to be disclosed, the first party will furnish only that portion of such information that it is advised, by opinion of counsel, is legally required to be furnished and will exercise reasonable efforts, at the other Members' expense, to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such information, including, in the case of disclosures to the IRS described in clause (a)(iv) above, to obtain reliable assurance that, to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Laws, such information will not be made available for public inspection pursuant to Section 6110 of the Code. Nothing herein shall be construed as prohibiting a party hereunder from using such Confidential Information in connection with (i) any claim against another Member hereunder, (ii) any exercise by a party hereunder of any of its rights hereunder and (iii) a disposition by a Member of all or a portion of its Membership Interest or a disposition of an equity interest in such Member or its Affiliates, provided, that, such potential purchaser shall have entered into a confidentiality agreement with respect to Confidential Information on customary terms used in confidentiality agreements in connection with corporate acquisitions before any such information may be disclosed. In addition, each Member hereby acknowledges that (x) the financial statements of the Company furnished to Members from time to time are confidential and may constitute material, non-public information concerning Affiliates of the Company or their securities under the United States federal securities laws; (y) the United States federal securities laws, among other things, prohibit certain persons in possession of material, non-public information concerning companies or securities from buying or selling securities issued by those companies or disclosing that material, nonpublic information to others who buy or sell those securities while in possession of that information (or disclose that information to others who buy or sell); and (z) each Member has a duty to comply with applicable United States federal securities laws.

Section 11.13. Joint Efforts. To the fullest extent permitted by law, neither this Agreement nor any ambiguity or uncertainty herein will be construed against any of the parties hereto, whether under any rule of construction or otherwise. On the contrary, this Agreement has been prepared by the joint efforts of the respective attorneys for, and has been reviewed by, each of the parties hereto.

Section 11.14. Specific Performance. The Members agree that irreparable damage may result if this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its terms, and the Members agree that any damages available at law for a breach of this Agreement may not be an adequate remedy. Therefore, to the extent that damages available at law for a breach of this Agreement are an inadequate remedy, the fullest extent permitted by law, the provisions hereof and the obligations of the Members hereunder may be enforceable in a court of equity, or other tribunal with jurisdiction, by a decree of specific performance, and appropriate injunctive relief may be applied for and granted in connection therewith. Such remedies and all other remedies provided for in this Agreement shall, however, be cumulative and not exclusive and shall be in addition to any other remedies that a Member may have under this Agreement, at law or in equity.

Section 11.15. Survival. All indemnities and reimbursement obligations made pursuant to this Agreement shall survive dissolution and liquidation of the Company until expiration of the longest applicable statute of limitations (including extensions and waivers) with respect to the matter for which a Person would be entitled to be indemnified or reimbursed, as the case may be.

All Working Capital Loans (i) shall be on terms and conditions no less favorable to the Company than could be expected to be obtained from a third party lender on an arm's length basis (and, to the extent applicable, shall satisfy all requirements under the Transaction Documents applicable to transactions between the Company and any Affiliate of a Member), (ii) shall be unsecured (and, to the extent applicable, shall satisfy all requirements under the Transaction Documents applicable to subordinated loans); and (iii) shall be repaid by the Company out of Distributable Cash on a pro rata basis with all such other Working Capital Loans and Credit Support Reimbursement Obligations, unless such loans are otherwise agreed by the Company and such lending parties to be payable in installments over a longer period of time. In the event that Ormat or an Affiliate of Ormat makes any Working Capital Loan, each Class B Member will have the option, at its discretion, to participate in such Working Capital Loan by providing up to its pro rata portion (based on its respective percentage of the Membership Interests) of the funds loaned to the Company under such Working Capital Loan within 30 days after the funding of such Working Capital Loan to the Company, on the same terms and conditions as provided under such Working Capital Loan. Any Working Capital Loan shall be evidenced by a note substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto.

(b) Credit Support Reimbursement Obligations. In the event that Ormat or any Affiliate thereof incurs reimbursement obligations or loans resulting from draws on any Credit Support provided on behalf of the Company or a Project Company, or otherwise advances cash reserves or posts other collateral in connection with Credit Support, such reimbursement obligations (the "Credit Support Reimbursement Obligations"), loans or cash advances shall be deemed an unsecured loan to the Company or Project Company, as applicable, by Ormat or such Affiliate, as applicable, to be repaid out of available cash flow of the Company (or, if applicable, the Project Company), on a pari passu basis with any outstanding Working Capital Loans, but before any distributions to the Members under Article VI. In any case where the Company incurs such a reimbursement obligation to Ormat or any Affiliate thereof in connection with a market-based third party letter of credit obtained by Ormat or any Affiliate thereof, such obligation shall bear interest at the actual rate incurred by Ormat or any Affiliate thereof under such letter of credit, and shall otherwise have terms and conditions applicable to Working Capital Loans, excluding any limitations on the aggregate principal amount outstanding on Working Capital Loans. In any case where the Company incurs such a reimbursement obligation, the interest rate shall be no greater than the interest rate provided in connection with the Working Capital Loans (LIBOR plus 2.0 %). Each Class B Member shall have the option, at its discretion, to participate in any such loan to the Company by providing up to its pro rata portion (based on its respective percentage of the Membership Interests) of the amount of the Credit Support Reimbursement Obligation incurred by the Company under such Credit Support within 30 days after the incurrence of such reimbursement obligation, under the same terms and conditions as provided in the immediately preceding sentence.

(c) Guaranty Fees. In the event that a Member or an Affiliate thereof provides on behalf of the Company or a Project Company any guaranty, letter of credit or surety bond, such Member shall provide a copy thereof to the other Members within 10 Business Days and such Member or Affiliate will be entitled to (i) receive a fee (the "Guaranty Fee") which fee shall be comparable to a fee chargeable for providing such guaranty, letter of credit or surety bond to a project company rated below investment grade (or not rated), on a non-recourse basis, that may be arranged in an arm's length transaction by a guarantor which would be deemed to have a credit rating of at least BBB+ and taking into account the amount of the underlying obligation being guaranteed and the length of time the guarantee will be outstanding, and (ii) compensation for the costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) incurred in connection with effecting, maintaining and renewing such guaranty, letter of credit or surety bond; provided, that each other Member shall have the right to participate in providing such Credit Support and receiving such Guaranty Fee, by providing up to its pro rata portion (based on its respective percentage of the Membership Interests) of such Credit Support (either by providing a similar credit support instrument with respect to such portion of the obligation, or by indemnifying the Member originally providing such Credit Support with respect to such portion of the credit support obligation,) and shall share in the Guaranty Fee owed in respect thereof by the Company to the original provider of such Credit Support.

Section 11.17. Recourse Only to Member. The sole recourse of the Company for performance of the obligations of any Member hereunder shall be against such Member and its assets and not against any assets or property of any present or future stockholder, partner, member, director, executive, officer, employee, servant, agent, authorized representative or Affiliate of such Member.

(ii) the Borrower shall become insolvent, or generally fail to pay, or admit in writing its inability to pay, its debts as they become due, or shall voluntarily commence any proceeding or file any petition under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar federal, state or foreign law or seeking dissolution, liquidation or reorganization or the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or liquidator for it or a substantial portion of its property, assets or business or to effect a plan or other arrangement with its creditors, or shall file any answer admitting the jurisdiction of the court and the material allegations of an involuntary petition filed against it in any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding, or shall be adjudicated bankrupt, or shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or shall consent to, or acquiesce in the appointment of, a receiver, trustee, custodian or liquidator for a substantial portion of its property, assets or business, or shall by any act or failure to act indicate its consent to or approval of any of the foregoing, or if any corporate action is taken by the Borrower for the purpose of effecting any of the foregoing; or

(iii) involuntary proceedings or an involuntary petition shall be commenced or filed against the Borrower under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar federal, state or foreign law or seeking the dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of it or the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or liquidator for it or of a substantial part of its property, assets or business, and such proceedings or petition shall not be dismissed within sixty (60) days; or any writ, judgment, tax lien, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process shall be issued or levied against a substantial part of its property, assets or business, and such writ, judgment, lien, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process shall not be released, vacated or fully bonded, within sixty (60) days after commencement, filing or levy, as the case may be, or any order for relief shall be entered in any such proceeding; or any winding-up, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Borrower.

The Borrower waives any and all right to assert any defense (except for the Borrower’s performance under the Note), set-off, counterclaim or cross claim of any nature whatsoever with respect to this Note or the obligations of the Borrower hereunder in any action or proceeding brought by the Lender to collect this Note, or any portion hereof. The Borrower waives presentment, demand, notice, protest and all other demands and notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default or enforcement of this Note.

The Borrower promises to pay all reasonable out-of pocket costs and expenses of the Lender (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred in connection with (i) the enforcement of, or collection of any amounts due under, this Note or (ii) any waiver, extension, amendment or modification of this Note.

Exhibit D - 2

This Note shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the Borrower and the Lender and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not assign its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Lender. This Note may be freely assigned by the Lender without the consent of the Borrower.

This Note may only be modified, amended, or terminated (other than by payment in full) by an agreement in writing signed by the Borrower and the Lender. No waiver of any term, covenant or provision of this Note shall be effective unless given in writing by the Lender.

ALL LEGAL ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST THE BORROWER WITH RESPECT TO THIS NOTE MAY BE BROUGHT IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS NOTE THE BORROWER ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN CONNECTION WITH ITS PROPERTIES, THE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS.

(b) Authority. Purchaser has the limited liability company organizational power and authority to enter into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, to perform its obligations hereunder and thereunder, and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

-13-

(c) No Conflicts. The execution and delivery by Purchaser of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which Purchaser is a party do not, and the performance by Purchaser of Purchaser obligations hereunder and thereunder will not, (i) violate any Applicable Law, (ii) conflict with or cause a breach of any provision of its Organizational Documents or (iii) cause a breach of, constitute a default under, cause the acceleration of, create in any party the right to accelerate, terminate, modify or cancel, or require any authorization, consent, waiver or approval under any contract, license, instrument, decree, judgment or other arrangement to which Purchaser is a party or under which it is bound or to which any of its assets are subject (or result in the imposition of a Lien upon any such assets), except (in the case of this clause (iii)) for any that could not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse impact on Purchaser’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(d) Absence of Litigation.

(i) Purchaser has not received written notification of any actions or proceedings that have been instituted or threatened in writing by any Governmental Authority or Person against the Purchaser that seeks to impair, restrain, prohibit or invalidate the transactions contemplated herein or in any Transaction Document.

(ii) Purchaser (x) is not subject to any pending or outstanding injunction, judgment, order, decree, ruling or charge, (y) is not subject to any pending action, suit, proceeding, hearing or investigation of, in, or before any Governmental Authority or before any arbitrator, and (z) to Purchaser’s knowledge, is not threatened with being made a party to any action, suit, proceeding, hearing or investigation of, in, or before any Governmental Authority or before any arbitrator.

(e) Accredited Investor; Information; Investment Intent. Purchaser is an “Accredited Investor” as such term is defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Purchaser has had a reasonable opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from Seller concerning Seller, the Membership Interests and the Company, and all such questions have been answered to the full satisfaction of Purchaser. Purchaser understands that the Membership Interests have not been registered under the Securities Act in reliance on an exemption therefrom, and that the Membership Interests must be held indefinitely unless the sale thereof is registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from registration is available thereunder, and that Seller is under no obligation to register the Membership Interests. Purchaser shall not sell, hypothecate or otherwise transfer the Membership Interests without registering or qualifying them under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws unless the transfer is exempted from registration or qualification under such laws. Purchaser is purchasing the Membership Interests for its own account and not for the account of any other Person and not with a view to distribution to others.

(f) Information and Investment Intent. Purchaser recognizes that investment in the Membership Interests involves substantial risks. Purchaser acknowledges that any financial projections that may have been provided to it are based on assumptions of future operating results developed by Seller and Seller’s advisers and, therefore, represent an estimate of future results based on assumptions about certain events (many of which are beyond the control of Seller and the Company). Purchaser understands that no assurances or representations can be given that the actual results of the operations of the Company will conform to the projected results for any period. Purchaser has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial and business matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risk of its investment and is able to bear the economic risk of holding the Membership Interests for an indefinite period (including total loss of its investment). Purchaser has relied solely on its own legal, tax and financial advisers for its evaluation of an investment in the Membership Interests and not on the advice of the Seller or the Company or any of their respective legal, tax or financial advisers. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this paragraph (f) shall relieve Seller or any of its affiliates of any obligations expressly imposed upon them hereunder or reduce the rights expressly granted hereunder to Purchaser and its affiliates in respect of the express representations, warranties and covenants or other agreements of Seller or its affiliates to the extent contained herein.

(g) Public Utility Holding Company. Purchaser is not a “holding company” within the meaning of PUHCA.

Except with respect to the representations and warranties of Seller and the Company in the Transaction Documents, none of Seller or the Company has made any representation or warranty, either express or implied, nor has the Purchaser relied on any representation or warranty not expressly made herein or in any other Transaction Document. The Purchaser specifically acknowledges that, except as stated in Section 3.1 and any representations and warranties made in any other Transaction Document, no representation or warranty has been made and that the Purchaser has not relied on any representation or warranty about the accuracy of any projections, estimates or budgets, future revenues, future results from operations, future cash flows, the future condition of the Project or any assets of the Company, or the future financial condition of the Company.

Reg. 1.1502-6 Liability”).

(b) Purchaser agrees to severally indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Seller Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Seller Indemnified Costs; provided, however, that except with respect to Seller Indemnified Costs resulting from fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct or failure to pay any amount due to Seller Indemnified Parties under any Transaction Document, in no event shall Purchaser’s aggregate obligation to indemnify the Seller Indemnified Parties hereunder exceed 25% of the sum of the Purchase Price paid by Purchaser as of the date such indemnification obligation arises (provided, however, that the 25% limitation above shall be 100% in respect of a breach of Purchaser’s representations in Section 3.2(a), Section 3.2(b), Section 3.2(c)(ii) and Section 3.2(e)).

-16-

(c) No claim for indemnification may be made with respect to any breach (other than failure to pay an amount due) unless and until the aggregate amount of claims for which indemnification is (or previously has been) sought exceeds $1,000,000; provided, that once such threshold amount of claims has been reached, the relevant Indemnified Party shall have the right to be indemnified for all such claims, including amounts that were not previously paid because such threshold amount had not been reached.

5.2 Direct Claims. In any case in which an Indemnified Party seeks indemnification under Section 5.1 which is not subject to Section 5.3 because no Third Party Claim is involved, the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of such direct claim, of any amounts which such Indemnified Party claims are subject to indemnification under the terms of this Article 5. The failure of the Indemnified Party to exercise promptness in such notification shall not amount to a waiver of such claim, except to the extent the resulting delay materially prejudices the position of the Indemnifying Party with respect to such claim.

5.3 Third Party Claims. An Indemnified Party shall give written notice to any Indemnifying Party within 30 days after it has actual knowledge of commencement or assertion of any action, proceeding, demand, or claim by a third party (collectively, a “Third Party Claim”) in respect of which such Indemnified Party may seek indemnification under Section 5.1. Such notice shall state the nature and basis of such Third Party Claim and the events and the amounts thereof to the extent known. Any failure so to notify an Indemnifying Party shall not relieve such Indemnifying Party from any liability that it, may have to such Indemnified Party under this Article 5, except to the extent the failure to give such notice materially and adversely prejudices such Indemnifying Party. In case any such action, proceeding or claim is brought against an Indemnified Party, so long as (a) the Indemnifying Party has acknowledged in writing to the Indemnified Party that it is liable to the Indemnified Party for such Third Party Claim pursuant to this Section 5.3, (b) in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnified Party a conflict of interest between it and the Indemnifying Party does not exist in respect of such Third Party Claim and (c) in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnified Party such Third Party Claim does not entail a material risk of criminal penalties or civil fines or non-monetary sanctions being imposed on the Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Penalty Claim”) (the forgoing conditions being referred to as the “Control Conditions”), the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in and assume the defense thereof, with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, and after notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to such Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the latter in connection with the defense thereof other than as expressly provided below in this Section 5.3; provided, that nothing contained herein shall permit Seller to control or participate in any Tax contest or dispute involving Purchaser or any Affiliate of Purchaser, or permit Purchaser to control or participate in any Tax contest or dispute involving Seller or any Affiliate of Seller other than the Company. In the event that (i) the Indemnifying Party advises an Indemnified Party that it will not contest a claim for indemnification hereunder, (ii) the Indemnifying Party fails, within 30 days of receipt of any indemnification notice to notify, in writing, such Indemnified Party of its election, to defend, settle or compromise, at is sole cost and expense, any such Third Party Claim (or discontinues its defense at any time after it commences such defense) or (iii) in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnified Party, a conflict of interest between it and the Indemnifying Party exists in respect of such Third Party Claim or the action or claim is a Third Party Penalty Claim, then the Indemnified Party may, at its option, defend, settle or otherwise compromise or pay such action or claim or Third Party Claim, and the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for and shall reimburse the Indemnified Party promptly and periodically for the Indemnified Party’s reasonable costs and expenses arising out of the defense, settlement or compromise of any such action, claim or proceeding. In any event, unless and until the Indemnifying Party elects in writing to assume and does so assume the defense of any such claim, proceeding or action, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the Indemnified Party’s reasonable costs and expenses arising out of the defense, settlement or compromise of any such action, claim or proceeding. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate fully with the Indemnifying Party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or claim by the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall keep the Indemnified Party fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. If the Indemnifying Party elects to defend any such action or claim, then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in such defense with counsel of its choice at its sole cost and expense. If any of the Control Conditions is not satisfied or becomes unsatisfied, (x) the Indemnified Party may defend against, and consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to, such Third Party Claim in any manner it may deem appropriate (and the Indemnified Party need not consult with, or obtain any consent from, any Indemnifying Party in connection therewith), (y) the Indemnifying Party will reimburse the Indemnified Party promptly and periodically for the reasonable costs or defending against such Third Party Claim (including reasonable consultant, attorney and expert witness fees, disbursements and expenses), and (z) the Indemnifying Party will remain responsible for any losses the Indemnified Party may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by such Third Party Claim to the fullest extent provided in this Article 5. The Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate fully with each other in connection with the defense, negotiation or settlement of any such legal proceeding, claim or demand. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.3 to the contrary, the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent, settle or compromise any claim or consent to entry of judgment in respect thereof which imposes any criminal liability or civil fine or sanction or equitable remedy on the Indemnified Party or which does not include, as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the Indemnified Party, a release from all liability in respect of such claim.

-17-

5.4 After-Tax Basis. For tax reporting purposes, to the maximum extent permitted by the Code, each Party will agree to treat all amounts paid under any of the provisions of this Article 5 as an adjustment to the purchase price for the Membership Interests (or otherwise as a non-taxable reimbursement, contribution or return of capital, as the case may be). To the extent any such indemnification payment is includable as income of the Indemnified Party as determined by agreement of the Parties, or if there is no agreement, by an opinion of a nationally-recognized tax counsel selected jointly by the Parties that such amount is “more likely than not” includable as income of the recipient, the amount of the payment shall be increased by the amount of any United States federal income tax required to be paid by the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates on the receipt or accrual of the indemnification payment, including, for this purpose, the amount of any such Tax required to be paid by the Indemnified Party on the receipt or accrual of the additional amount required to be added to such payment pursuant to this Section 5.4, assuming full taxability, using an assumed tax rate equal to the highest marginal United States federal income tax rate applicable to corporations generally (currently 35 % for federal only). Both Parties shall have the opportunity to comment on the opinion delivered in accordance with the foregoing sentence. If an opinion is delivered in accordance with this Section 5.4, the Indemnified Party shall report the relevant indemnification payments as income consistent with such opinion and otherwise act in a manner consistent with such opinion. Any payment made under this Article 5 shall be reduced by the present value (as determined on the basis of a discount rate equal to 8% per annum and the same assumptions about taxability and tax rates) of any federal income tax benefit to be realized by the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates by reason of the facts and circumstances giving rise to such indemnification.

-18-

5.5 No Duplication. Any liability of an Indemnifying Party to an Indemnified Party for indemnification under this Article 5 shall be determined without duplication of recovery by such Indemnified Party from such Indemnifying Party. Without limiting the generality of the prior sentence, if a statement of facts, condition or event constitutes a breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant or agreement which is subject to the indemnification obligation in Section 5.1, only one recovery of Purchaser Indemnified Costs or Seller Indemnified Costs, as applicable, shall be allowed.

5.6 Sole Remedy. The remedies of the Parties under this Article 5 are the sole and exclusive remedies that a Party may have under this Agreement for the recovery of monetary damages with respect to any breach or failure to perform any covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement or any breach of any representation or warranty set forth in this Agreement other than for Purchaser Indemnified Costs or Seller Indemnified Costs, as the case may be, arising from fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct.

5.7 Survival. All representations and warranties in this Agreement shall survive until the final date for any assertion of claims as forth in Section 5.8.

5.8 Final Date for Assertion of Indemnity Claims.

(a) All claims by a Purchaser Indemnified Party for indemnification pursuant to this Article 5 resulting from breaches of representations or warranties shall be forever barred unless Seller is notified on or prior to the date that is 18 months after the Closing Date, except that (i) claims by a Purchaser Indemnified Party for indemnification pursuant to this Article 5 resulting from any Treas. Reg. 1.1502-6 Liability and any breaches of representations and warranties made in Sections 3.1(b), 3.1(e), and 3.1(f) shall survive indefinitely, (ii) claims by a Purchaser Indemnified Party for indemnification pursuant to this Article 5 resulting from breaches of the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.1(g) or 3.1(s) shall survive for 30 days after the applicable statute of limitations on the assessment and collection of such Taxes attributable to Company items, and (iii) claims by a Purchaser Indemnified Party for indemnification pursuant to this Article 5 resulting from breaches of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.1(j) shall survive until the date that is 3 years after the Closing Date; provided, that if written notice of a claim for indemnification has been given by such Purchaser Indemnified Party on or prior to any such date, then the obligation of the Seller to indemnify such Purchaser Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article 5 shall survive with respect to such claim until such claim is finally resolved.

-19-

(b) All claims by a Seller Indemnified Party for indemnification pursuant to this Article 5 resulting from breaches of representations or warranties shall be forever barred unless Purchaser is notified on or prior to the date that is 18 months after the Closing Date; except that claims by a Seller Indemnified Party for indemnification pursuant to this Article 5 resulting from any breaches of representations and warranties made in Sections 3.2(b), Section 3.2(c)(ii) and Section 3.2(e) shall survive indefinitely, provided, that if written notice of a claim for indemnification has been given by such Seller Indemnified Party on or prior to such date, then the obligation of the Purchaser to indemnify such Seller Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article 5 shall survive with respect to such claim until such claim is finally resolved.

5.9 Mitigation and Limitations on Losses. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein:

(a) Reasonable Steps to Mitigate. Each of the Indemnified Parties will take, at the Indemnifying Party’s cost and expense, all reasonable commercial steps identified by the Indemnifying Party to mitigate its Purchaser Indemnified Costs or Seller Indemnified Costs, as the case may be, which steps may include availing itself of any defenses, limitations, rights of contribution, claims against third Persons and other rights at law or equity. The Indemnified Parties will provide such evidence and documentation of the nature and extent of its Purchaser Indemnified Costs or Seller Indemnified Costs, as the case may be, as may be reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party.

(b) Net of Insurance Benefits. The amount of Purchaser Indemnified Costs and Seller Indemnified Costs recoverable hereunder shall be net of insurance recoveries actually received by the applicable Indemnified Party from insurance policies of the Company (including under the existing title policies).

(c) No Consequential Damages. Except to the extent awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment in connection with a Third Party Claim, fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct, neither Purchaser Indemnified Costs nor Seller Indemnified Costs shall include, and the Indemnifying Party shall have no obligation to indemnify any Indemnified Parties for or in respect of any punitive, consequential or exemplary damages of any nature, including damages for lost profits.

5.10 Payment of Indemnification Claims. All claims for indemnification shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party in immediately available funds in United States dollars. Payments for indemnification claims shall be made promptly after any final determination of the amount of such claim is made by a court of competent jurisdiction (or by agreement of the Parties involved).

5.11 Specific Performance. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that the other Party would be damaged irreparably in the event any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise are breached. Accordingly, each of the Parties agrees that the other Party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically this Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof in any action instituted in any court of the United States or any state thereof having jurisdiction over the Parties and the matter in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled, at law or in equity.

-20-

5.12 Third-Party Beneficiary. The Parties acknowledge and agree that Northleaf Geothermal Holdings LLC is a third-party beneficiary of the Company and shall have the right to enforce all of Seller’s indemnification obligations hereunder directly against Seller on behalf of Purchaser.

Capacity Test Procedures

●

Don A. Campbell Project and Don A. Campbell Expansion (each, a “Plant”) shall be tested simultaneously as a combined unit.

●

All parts of the Don A. Campbell Facility shall be operated in normal, automatic operating mode without exceeding the predefined design limits or prudent long-term operating conditions for any system or component.

●

The resource, wells, and equipment shall operate in stable condition for at least 12 hours prior to the start of the test to demonstrate reasonably constant geothermal fluid flows and temperatures being delivered to the Don A. Campbell Facility.

●

Each test shall be conducted for a period of 15 days except as extended as outlined below (the “Test Period”).

●

The average geothermal fluid flow during each test shall not exceed 31,560 gpm.

●

The net energy production shall be measured at the Don A. Campbell Facility revenue meter on the low side of the GSU.

●

The test uncertainties shall be calculated before and after the test and shall not exceed:

Measurement	Units	Max uncertainty
Net output	kW	0.40%
Ambient temperature	°F	1.0 °F
Geothermal fluid flow	gpm	1.0%

●

Instrument accuracies shall be reviewed and calibrated as needed to achieve the target uncertainties to the satisfaction of both parties.

●

No tolerances shall be applied for uncertainty or any other reason. The net capacity (corrected only for ambient temperature) shall be compared directly to the guaranteed value without allowance for uncertainty, i.e. no “deadband”.

●

The Plant Capacity will be calculated by applying the appropriate Ambient Temperature Correction Factor to the capacity. This Ambient Temperature Correction Factor will be the average of the reciprocal of F1 for the measured temperature during the Test Period, as set forth in the formula below:

Exhibit F - 1

Where:

n Number of points

F1i Ambient Temperature Correction Factor for point i.

Meter MWh Meter readings at the each Plant revenue meter on the low side of the GSU transformer.

●

Power and ambient temperature will be measured at least at 10 minutes intervals.

●

Ambient temperature shall be measured with two (2) RTDs at each Plant in locations that give a good average value for the site, as agreed by both Parties.

●

The HMI (Human Machine Interface) shall be used to collect, store, and average the data. Averages shall be available for each minute and hour of each test and provided in Excel or delimited text files. Other normal measurements in the Don A. Campbell Facility shall be recorded and made available upon request.

●

The acceptance criteria are: compliance with Permits and Applicable Laws, compliance with all NV Energy requirements for delivering energy to the transmission grid, compliance with the test procedures, all tests conducted in a safe and sustainable manner, and any other requirements customary for tests of this nature.

●

During each test, each Plant is allowed one trip (complete shutdown) for problems within the Plant. Repeated trips of any major equipment are not acceptable. If any major equipment trips more than twice during the test, the test shall be void and shall be restarted from the beginning.

●

Any Test Periods impacted by grid outages shall be omitted, both energy and duration, in the calculations and the test extended accordingly.

●

Northleaf and/or its representatives shall have the right to witness the tests. Notice of the planned testing schedule shall be provided to Northleaf not less than 10 days prior to the start of each test. Rescheduling of the tests shall be done with at least 3 days’ notice.

●

After completion of the test, Ormat shall provide a Test Report consistent with industry standards that includes, at least, the following information: (i) calibration dates and certificates of the instruments; (ii) evidence that instrumentation uncertainties are within the acceptable range; (iii) a complete set of operating data for the test, including but not limited to kW, gpm, ambient temp and inlet temp for each interval.]
