Deemed completion may occur under one (1) or both of two (2) circumstances, when: (a) Company fails to provide the countersigned Certificate of Substantial Completion as contemplated in Section 4.4 within the period referenced therein; or (b) Contractor’s conduct or completion of the Synchronization Test is delayed from the date on which such test would otherwise have commenced, been conducted or completed due to a Company Default and Contractor has completed all of the other requirements set forth in Section 4.3. In the event of (b), Contractor shall notify Company of having achieved deemed Substantial Completion pursuant to Section 4.4.

4.6.1 The Parties agree that it would be extremely difficult and impracticable under the presently known and anticipated facts and circumstances to ascertain and fix the actual damages that Company would incur should Contractor fail to achieve Substantial Completion by the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date, and accordingly, the Parties hereby agree that if Contractor fails to so achieve Substantial Completion by the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date, then Company shall be entitled to recover from Contractor as liquidated damages for such delay, and not as a penalty, the amounts set forth in Section 1 of Exhibit K (“Delay Liquidated Damages”). The Delay Liquidated Damages are, subject to Section 4.10 and Article 19, Company’s sole and exclusive remedy in the event Contractor fails to achieve any of the milestones for the Facility, including Substantial Completion, by the dates set forth in the Schedule. Company and Contractor further agree that the Delay Liquidated Damages are a good faith estimate of the damages Company would suffer.

4.6.2 If the Substantial Completion Date occurs prior to the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date, Company shall pay to Contractor a bonus, for each Day which

shall elapse between the Substantial Completion Date and the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date, the amounts set forth in Section 2 of Exhibit K (“Schedule Bonus”).

When all of the following conditions have been met with respect to the Facility, Contractor shall issue to Company a Certificate of Final Completion in substantially the same form as that set forth in Exhibit I:

(a) except for the Punchlist Items and As-Built Drawings, the Facility and Work has been completed and complies with the Scope of Work, the Drawings, the Specifications and applicable Laws, and Contractor has made training available to Company’s personnel (or other nominees of Company);

(b) the Facility has satisfied or, pursuant to Sections 6.4.2, 6.4.3 or 6.7 is deemed to have satisfied, the checks and tests under Exhibit D, including the Performance Guarantee or, if the Performance Guarantee was not met, the Performance Liquidated Damages have either been paid or agreed and shall be deducted from the final payment of the Contract Price;

(c) any amount finally determined due for Delay Liquidated Damages has either been paid or agreed and shall be deducted from the final payment of the Contract Price;

(d) the list of Punchlist Items (if any) for the Facility have been identified by Contractor and provided to Company as provided in Section 4.9;

(e) all other deliverables identified in this Contract with respect to the Facility (except for the As-Built Drawings or deliverables appearing in the Punchlist Items provided by Contractor), including the O&M Manual and other documents and materials described in Article 9, have been completed in accordance with the provisions hereof and have been provided to Company.; and

(f) all rubbish accumulated by Contractor in the Company-designated disposal area has been removed and disposed in accordance with Section 2.2(g) .

Within fifteen (15) Days following the receipt of the Certificate of Final Completion, Company shall inspect the Facility and review all Work and services performed by Contractor with respect thereto, and shall either (i) deliver to Contractor the Certificate of Final Completion countersigned and certifying that the Work requirements of this Contract (other than the Punchlist Items identified by Contractor and the As-Built Drawings) have been fully satisfied for the Facility and Final Completion of the Facility has accordingly been achieved, or (ii) if reasonable cause exists for doing so, notify Contractor in writing that Final Completion of the Facility has not been achieved, stating in detail the reasons therefore. In the event that Company determines that Final Completion has not been achieved and Contractor has not disputed Company’s determination, Contractor shall promptly take such corrective action or perform such

additional Work or other services as shall achieve Final Completion of the Facility and shall issue to Company another Certificate of Final Completion. Such procedure shall be repeated until Final Completion of the Facility has been achieved; provided, however, that Company shall respond to any such subsequent Certificate of Final Completion within five (5) Days following the receipt thereof. If Company fails to provide the Certificate of Final Completion or as contemplated in (ii) above within the aforementioned period, Final Completion of the Facility shall be deemed to have been achieved.

Contractor shall provide to Company a list of all Punchlist Items and the estimated cost thereof prior to the issuance of the Certificate of Final Completion. Within fifteen (15) Days following the receipt of this list of Punchlist Items, Company shall notify Contractor in writing whether Company has any objections to that list or the estimates thereof. If Company has any objections, including additions, the Parties shall use good faith efforts to resolve such objections. If no agreement can be reached, the provisions of Article 14 shall be invoked to resolve the dispute. Two hundred percent (200%) of the estimated value of such Work, as reasonably decided by Company, shall be retained or deducted from the Contract Price by Company or, at Contractor’s option, paid to Company by Contractor pending satisfactory rectification and/or completion. Contractor shall rectify or complete to the reasonable satisfaction of Company within the time stated in the Certificate of Final Completion any such Punchlist Items listed. In the event Contractor fails to rectify or complete any Punchlist Items listed, Company may arrange for the outstanding work to be done and the cost thereof shall be certified by Company and deducted from the Contract Price or, at Contractor’s option, paid to Company by Contractor. Upon satisfactory rectification and/or completion of such Work, the money retained, deducted or paid under this Section 4.9 in relation thereto shall be reimbursed to Contractor by Company. During the period after Final Completion, Contractor and Company shall cooperate to ensure that the performance of the Work does not unreasonably interfere with the commercial operation of the Facility and at the same time allowing the remaining Work to be performed in a prompt and efficient manner. As soon as practicable after the completion of all Punchlist Items, Contractor shall remove all of its equipment and Materials and complete the removal of all Work-related waste material and rubbish from and around the Site.

4.10 Failure to Achieve Final Completion by the Guaranteed Final Completion Date

4.10.1 If the Final Completion Date has not occurred on or before the Guaranteed Final Completion Date and if the Net Deliverable Capacity is less than the Performance Guarantee, and Contractor elects to make corrections to the Facility and continue repeating Performance Tests pursuant to Exhibit D, then Contractor shall be liable for liquidated damages to the Company for the shortfall in generation in the amount calculated as described below until such time that Contractor has performed the final Capacity Test pursuant to Exhibit D so that there can be a determination as to whether Performance Liquidated Damages or a Performance Bonus is payable as provided in this Contract.

4.10.2 The shortfall in generation for purposes of Section 4.10.1 shall be calculated as the lesser of: (a) the Net Deliverable Capacity Deficiency, as defined in Schedule A of Exhibit D; and (b) the difference between what the Facility would have been able to generate and sell to Idaho Power Company had the Facility met the Performance Guarantee, and that which it was actually able to sell as a result of the Facility not meeting the Performance Guarantee. The shortfall in generation shall be calculated between the Guaranteed Final Completion Date and the actual Final Completion Date. Any shortfall generation attributable to the Company, whether because the Facility was unable to operate or to only operate at a reduce power output, shall not be included in the shortfall generation for which the Contractor is liable.

4.10.3 The Shortfall in Generation liquidated damages that the Company shall be entitled to recover from Contractor, and Contractor shall pay to Company, shall be calculated as the shortfall in generation calculated as provided in Section 4.10.2 multiplied by the PPA rate for the power (“Shortfall Generation Liquidated Damages”).

5.1.1 As compensation for the performance of the Work, Company shall pay Contractor, in the manner and at the times hereinafter specified, the Contract Price, which amount may be subject to adjustment in accordance with the terms of this Contract.

5.1.2 The Contract Price includes any and all Taxes imposed directly or indirectly by any Governmental Authority including export taxes, importation duties and income Taxes imposed on Contractor, but excludes State of Idaho and local sales and use taxes.

5.1.3 Contractor shall be responsible for paying all State of Idaho sales and use taxes due as a result of the Work in the construction of the Facility to the State of Idaho on behalf of the Company. Company shall reimburse Contractor for any such taxes so paid. The State of Idaho sales and use taxes paid by Contractor since the previous invoice shall be stated separately and shown on all invoices as a separate line item and shall be paid by Company to Contractor.

(a) promptly provide to Company evidence of its remittance to the applicable Governmental Authority of all state and local sales and use taxes that Contractor collects from Company under this Contract; and

(b) provide Company with sufficient level of detail such that Company is able to claim any State of Idaho sales and use tax refund for geothermal energy projects for which it may be eligible under State of Idaho law.

Exhibit B sets forth the payment installments payable by Company in respect of Work performed by Contractor. The Schedule shall be used as the basis for preparation of invoices and for payments. Any cumulative acceleration of the Milestone Payment Schedule of more than fourteen (14) Days must reflect a reciprocal acceleration in the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date and the Guaranteed Final Completion Date.

5.3.1 Upon the completion of any of the payment milestones described in the Schedule, Contractor shall present to Company the invoice and any other Documents described for payment of such milestone in the Schedule. Except as provided below in this Section 5.3, invoices that are presented for payment shall be paid within thirty (30) Days of Company’s receipt of such invoice. All invoices presented for payment by Contractor to Company shall set forth the following information, the: (i) aggregate Contract Price related committed costs for the period represented by such invoice as provided in the Milestone Payment Schedule (“Gross Invoice Amount”); (ii) minimum cash payment required to be paid by Company pursuant to such invoice as provided in the Milestone Payment Schedule (“Minimum Payment”); and (iii) aggregate payments made by Company to Contractor as of the invoice date. Contractor agrees to forebear the requirement for payment of the Gross Invoice Amount and shall accept payment of the Minimum Payment with respect to such invoice; provided, that Company shall provide to Contractor a Letter of Credit in a form, and issued by a financial institution, acceptable to Contractor, for the: (a) aggregate of the Gross Invoice Amount less the Minimum Payment, and (b) any outstanding balances owed to Contractor by Company in relation to prior invoices where Company paid Contractor a Minimum Payment.

5.3.2 Within ten (10) Days of its receipt of an invoice and such Documents, Company’s Representative shall give written notice to Contractor of any objections that Company’s Representative has with regard to the accomplishment of such milestone. If Company’s Representative fails to provide such notice within such ten (10) Day period, the milestone shall be deemed accomplished and Contractor shall be entitled to payment. If Company’s Representative provides written notice of objection to the accomplishment of such milestone and said Documentation within the period described above, and the contents of Company’s Representative’s notice is not in dispute, Contractor shall resubmit the corrected invoice and/or Documentation, and the above-described approval process shall reapply except that the response time shall be five (5) Days rather than ten (10) Days.

5.3.3 If pursuant to Section 5.3.2, Company’s Representative disputes any amounts invoiced by Contractor within the specified time period, Company shall promptly pay to Contractor the undisputed amount of such invoice in the manner provided in Section 5.3.1, and any disputed amount that is ultimately determined to have been payable shall be paid with interest from the date the item was payable to and including the date of payment, in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.8. The Parties shall resolve their differences regarding the disputed amount in accordance with the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Article 14.

5.3.4 The Letter of Credit will provide that Contractor is entitled to draw under the Letter of Credit the amount of the applicable Minimum Payment upon presentation of a certificate signed by Contractor stating that Company has failed to pay to Contractor a Minimum Payment when due and that such payment is not subject to a bona fide dispute subject to the dispute resolution procedures set forth in this Contract. The Letter of Credit will also provide that Contractor is entitled to draw the full amount of the Letter of Credit upon presentation of a certificate signed by Contractor stating that one of the events described in Section 19.2.1 of this Contract has occurred and Company has failed to cure such default within the time periods specified in Section 19.2.1.

No later than thirty (30) Days after the Final Completion Date, Contractor shall submit to Company a statement summarizing and reconciling all previous invoices, payments and Changes in the Work, with respect to the Work, and a waiver of liens as provided in Section 5.7 from Contractor for the Facility and such other data as Company may reasonably request establishing payment of or surety for payment of such unpaid Contractor obligations. Within thirty (30) Days of the receipt of such statements and lien waiver, Company shall pay Contractor the remaining portion of the Contract Price (except with respect to amounts remaining to be paid by Company under the Contract for Punchlist Items and less any unpaid Liquidated Damages owing by Contractor). Any disputes regarding a final payment shall be handled in accordance with the procedure set forth in Article 14.

No payment made by Company to Contractor shall be considered or deemed to represent that Company has inspected the Work or checked the quality or quantity of the Work and shall not be deemed or construed as an approval or acceptance of any Work or as a waiver of any claim or right Company may have hereunder.

Contractor shall promptly pay, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the respective Subcontract, each Subcontractor the amount to which said Subcontractor is entitled. Contractor shall, by an appropriate agreement with each Subcontractor, require each Subcontractor to make timely payments to its laborers, suppliers and subcontractors in a similar manner.

As a condition precedent to the making of the final Milestone Payment Schedule payment by Company hereunder, Contractor shall be required, upon request by Company, to supply Company with a waiver and release of liens and security interests to the extent of such payment in the form attached as Exhibit J, duly executed by Contractor.

Amounts not paid by either Party to the other when due under any provision of this Contract, including the provisions of this Article 5, shall bear interest, from the date payment was due to and including the date of payment, at the Delayed Payment Rate. For the purposes of this Agreement, interest shall not accrue on sums owed to Contractor by Company that are secured by a Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 5.3.1.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Contractor hereby reserves and Company hereby grants Contractor, a purchase money security interest in the Work as security for the due and punctual performance of all of Company’s obligations hereunder. The security interest referred to above shall be satisfied by payment in full of the Contract Price and any other amounts payable to Contractor hereunder. Company hereby agrees to execute such documents to evidence and perfect such security interest as Contractor may reasonably request from time-to-time. Company hereby appoints each of Contractor’s officers as Company’s duly authorized agent for the purpose of taking any and all such action, including execution of financing statements on Form UCC-1 and other documents deemed reasonably necessary by Contractor for the perfection and enforcement of the security interest granted hereby.

Development and implementation of tests procedures shall be the responsibility of Contractor. Contractor shall be responsible for providing all supplies required for carrying out such tests, except to the extent heat resource, testing power and water is required to be supplied by Company in accordance with this Contract. Company may, at its expense, require independent calibration of any and all instruments used by Contractor and/or supply Company’s own instruments to be used in addition to those of Contractor.

The Performance Tests shall be performed under normal operating conditions as described in Exhibit D hereto and in accordance with all applicable Laws in effect on the date thereof, and the test results shall be adjusted pursuant to the Correction Curves for deviations from the Design Conditions and shall be adjusted for other deviations as set forth in Exhibit D. Contractor may conduct the Performance Tests after the Substantial Completion Date.

Contractor shall notify Company at least fourteen (14) Days in advance of the actual date that Contractor shall start conducting the initial Performance Test. Company’s Representative shall be entitled to attend at the time and place appointed and Company shall instruct its operating personnel to follow the directions of Contractor in connection with the performance of the Performance Tests. If Company’s Representative fails to attend at the time and place

appointed for the Performance Tests, Contractor shall be entitled to proceed with the Performance Tests in their absence. The Performance Tests shall then be deemed to have been made in the presence of Company’s Representative.

6.4.1 In the event that Contractor’s conduct or completion of the Performance Tests is delayed for less than sixty (60) Days from the date on which such test would otherwise have commenced, been conducted or completed due to the failure of Company to fulfill any of its obligations under this Contract, then Company shall issue a Change Order extending the Schedule Day-for-Day for each Day of delay for those Schedule items that are affected by the Company’s failure to fulfill its obligations and compensating Contractor for its additional costs incurred as a result of such delay.

6.4.2 In the event that Contractor’s conduct or completion of the Performance Test is delayed for thirty (30) Days from the Substantial Completion Date due to a Company Default, then Company shall pay to Contractor fifty percent (50%) of the payment milestone set forth in the Milestone Payment Schedule for the Final Completion payment milestone.

6.4.3 In the event that Contractor’s conduct or completion of the Performance Test is delayed for sixty (60) Days from the Substantial Completion Date due to a Company Default, then the Facility shall then be deemed to be completed for all purposes under this Contract, Company shall pay to Contractor the remainder of the Contract Price less only the amounts withheld for Punchlist Items pursuant to Section 4.10 and Final Completion shall be deemed to have occurred.

6.4.4 Subject to Section 6.4.5, prior to the commencement of the Performance Tests or, if the Performances Tests have been delayed as provided in this Section 6.4, if and when the events that prevented the commencement of the Performance Tests cease, the Parties shall inspect the Facility and:

Subject to the foregoing, such Performance Test(s) shall be conducted in accordance with the terms of this Contract and the results of the final Capacity Test conducted during such period, if any, shall be subject to the payment of Net Performance Liquidated Damages or Performance Bonus in accordance with the terms set forth in Article 11. Contractor shall be paid all additional costs and expenses, if any, from those costs and expenses anticipated in the Contract Price that arise directly from such prevention and delay, including without limitation those costs and expenses reasonably incurred for demobilization and remobilization and increased costs and expenses incurred for rescheduling of the testing.

6.4.5 Subject to extension as provided elsewhere in this Agreement, Contractor’s obligations under this Section 6.4 shall cease one hundred eighty (180) Days from the Substantial Completion Date if Contractor has not been able to commence the Performance Tests before the end of that period.

Except as expressly set forth in Section 3.1, Section 6.3 and the Scope of Work, Contractor shall be responsible for the provision of all necessary labor, supervision, consumables, materials and equipment necessary to carry out properly the Performance Tests.

The terms governing the repetition of the Performance Tests are provided in Exhibit D, Section 4.

The terms governing the certification of the Performance Tests and resolution of disputes thereof pursuant to Article 14 of the Contract are provided in Exhibit D, Section 6.

8.1.1 Company may order Contractor to suspend the Work, or any part thereof, for such a time and in such a manner as Company may consider necessary or desirable. Contractor, during such a suspension, shall properly protect and secure the Work, or such part

thereof, so far as is necessary in the opinion of Company. In the event of such order to suspend the Work, or any part thereof, and such suspension is not the result of a Contractor default, Contractor shall be entitled to a Change Order for adjustments pursuant to this Article 8 in the Contract Price and the Schedule (including the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date and the Guaranteed Final Completion Date) as may be affected by such suspension.

8.1.2 Company may order Contractor to accelerate the progress of the Work, or any part thereof, for such a time and in such a manner as Company may consider necessary or desirable provided that such acceleration is reasonably practicable. In the event of such order to accelerate the Work, or any part thereof, and such acceleration is not the result of Contractor’s default, Contractor shall be entitled to a Change Order for adjustments pursuant to this Article 8 in the Contract Price as may be affected by such acceleration.

Company, without invalidating this Contract, may order Change in the Work that are reasonably related to and do not materially reduce or increase the Scope of Work, in which event one or more of the Contract Price, the Schedule (including the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date and the Guaranteed Final Completion Date) and other such parts of the Contract as may be affected by such Change in the Work shall be adjusted as necessary. If Company decides not to issue a Change Order after having requested a Change in the Work, unless such Change Order request is issued in response to a Contractor Change Order notice as set forth in Section 8.3.2, Contractor shall be entitled to reasonable compensation for providing engineering services necessary to respond to Company’s Change Order request. Such reasonable compensation is defined to mean Contractor’s actual direct cost of providing such engineering services plus a fifteen percent (15%) mark-up for overhead and profit. All Changes in the Work shall be authorized by a Change Order and only Company or Company’s Representative may issue Change Orders.

8.3.1 As soon as reasonably possible, but in no event later than fourteen (14) Days after Contractor becomes aware, through the exercise of reasonable diligence, of any circumstances which Contractor has reason to believe may constitute a Change in the Work, Contractor shall issue to Company a Change Order notice using the Change Order Request form set forth in Exhibit M. All Change Order notices shall include preliminary documentation sufficient to enable Company to determine (i) the factors necessitating the possibility of a Change Order; (ii) the impact which the Change Order is likely to have on the Contract Price; and (iii) the impact which the Change Order is likely to have on the Schedule (including the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date and the Guaranteed Final Completion Date). Failure to give such proper and timely Change Order notice shall, to the extent Company is prejudiced by such failure, constitute a waiver of Contractors right to an adjustment.

8.3.2 If Company desires to make a Change Order in response to a Change Order notice, it shall submit a Change Order request to Contractor using the Change Order Request form set forth in Exhibit M. Contractor shall promptly review the Change Order request and notify Company promptly in writing of the options for implementing the proposed Change

Order (including, if possible, any option that does not involve an extension of time) and the effect, if any, each such option would have on the Contract Price, the Schedule (including the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date and the Guaranteed Final Completion Date), or any other such part of the Contract as may be affected. The preparation and provision of information to Company in response to a Change Order request shall be at Contractor’s expense if such Change Order request is issued in response to a Change Order notice issued by Contractor pursuant to this Section 8.3.2 and otherwise Contractor shall be reimbursed for such expense as provided in Section 8.2.

8.3.3 If Company agrees that a Change Order is in order and accepts Contractor’s statement of the effect of such Change Order on any one or more of the Contract Price, the Schedule (including the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date and the Guaranteed Final Completion Date), or any other such part of the Contract as may be affected, Company shall issue a Change Order. In the event Company disagrees with Contractor’s statement of the effect of such Change Order on any one or more of the Contract Price, the Schedule (including the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date and the Guaranteed Final Completion Date), or any other such part of the Contract as may be affected, Company may proceed to issue the Change Order in accordance with Section 8.8.

Except as provided in Sections 8.5, 8.6 or 8.7, no Change Order shall be issued and no adjustment of any one or more of the Contract Price or the Schedule (including the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date and the Guaranteed Final Completion Date) shall be made to the extent resulting from any delay, failure of performance, correction of errors, and flaws or errors in design, omissions, deficiencies or improper or defective Work, machinery, equipment, materials, systems, supplies or other items on the part of Contractor or any Subcontractor in the performance of the Work or provisions of, or delay in provisions of Materials or other items of the Work where such delay was within the reasonable control of Contractor or any Subcontractor, or any failure of Contractor or any Subcontractor to comply with the Contract. To the extent any delay or failure of performance was concurrently caused by Company and Contractor, Contractor shall be entitled to an adjustment of the Schedule (including the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date and the Guaranteed Final Completion Date) for that portion of the delay or failure of performance that was concurrently caused, but Contractor shall not be entitled to any adjustment of Contract Price for such concurrent delay.

Any Change in the Work necessitated by any Change of Law enacted after the Effective Date (excluding therefrom any change in applicable Law relating to taxation of Contractor’s income) shall be treated as a Change Order under Section 8.3.

If Contractor’s performance hereunder is wholly or partially prevented due to the occurrence of a Force Majeure affecting Contractor and such Force Majeure has caused an extension of the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date or any other date under the Schedule,

Contractor shall provide to Company a written description of Contractor’s plan to make-up Days lost under the Schedule due to the occurrence of such Force Majeure, including an estimate of the costs of such plan. In the event of the occurrence of a Force Majeure, Contractor shall be entitled to a Change Order for adjustments pursuant to this Article 8 in the Schedule (including the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date and the Guaranteed Final Completion Date) and other such parts of the Contract as may be affected by such Force Majeure; provided, however, that there shall be no adjustment in the Contract Price for the first two (2) events of Force Majeure declared by a Party or any event of Force Majeure that arises from a failure of Contractor’s vendor, Ormat Systems Ltd., to timely perform its obligations that are being performed outside of the United States of America under its OEC supply agreement with Contractor. To the extent that Company desires to pay for the costs of acceleration of the Work or change to the Schedule (including the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date and the Guaranteed Final Completion Date) set forth in Contractor’s proposal in order to compensate for delays in the work caused by such Force Majeure, Company shall authorize a Change Order increasing the Contract Price and adjusting the Schedule (in addition to any automatic adjustments of the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date). To the extent Contractor (a) is compensated for the effect of a Force Majeure by insurance maintained pursuant to this Contract, or (b) would have been so compensated, but for Contractor’s failure to provide such insurance as required under this Contract, Contractor shall not be entitled to a Change Order to the Contract Price in connection with such Change Order issued for such Force Majeure. Except for the obligations of either Party to make any required payment then due and owing under this Contract, if either Party is rendered wholly or partially unable to perform its obligations under this Contract because of a Force Majeure, then such Party’s obligations that are so affected shall be excused and suspended to the extent and during the continuance of the Force Majeure. If the Force Majeure continues for six (6) consecutive months or more, this Contract may be terminated by either Party pursuant to Section 19.3. This Section 8.6 is subject to and conditioned upon the following:

(a) the non-performing Party, by exercise of due foresight, could not reasonably have been expected to avoid, or that by the exercise of reasonable due diligence could not have been able to overcome, such Force Majeure;

(b) the non-performing Party gives the other Party notice describing the particulars of the occurrence, with notice given promptly after the occurrence of the Force Majeure, and in no event more than fifteen (15) Days after the affected Party becomes aware of such occurrence; within thirty (30) Days after such occurrence, the non-performing Party shall give the other Party written notice estimating the expected duration and probable impact on the performance of such Party’s obligations hereunder, and continues to furnish timely regular reports with respect thereto during the continuation of the Force Majeure;

(c) the non-performing Party shall forecast the duration of its non-performance, provided that it shall be no more than is reasonably required by the Force Majeure;

(d) the non-performing Party shall exercise all reasonable efforts to mitigate or limit damages to the other Party;

(e) the non-performing Party shall exercise all reasonable efforts to continue to perform its obligations hereunder and to correct or cure the event or condition excusing performance; and

(f) when the non-performing Party is able to resume performance of its obligations under this Contract, that Party shall give the other Party written notice to that effect and shall promptly resume performance hereunder.

In the event and to the extent (a) a failure of Company to perform, or cause performance of, its obligations in accordance with the Contract; or (b) damage to or destruction of any Work caused by Company cause a delay in Contractor’s performance of the Work which impairs Contractor’s ability to meet the Schedule, or impacts Contractor’s cost of performance of the Work, an equitable adjustment in the Schedule (including the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date and the Guaranteed Final Completion Date) or the Contract Price or any other such part of this Contract as may be affected shall be made pursuant to this Article 8. To the extent Contractor cannot reasonably redeploy labor or equipment, reasonable standby and mobilization/remobilization costs incurred by Contractor resulting from any such delay shall be reimbursed to Contractor monthly as such costs are incurred.

8.8.1 An increase or decrease in Contract Price, if any, required pursuant to this Article 8 as a result of a Change Order shall be determined by the mutual agreement of the Parties, and shall be paid (or reimbursed) in one or more payments in accordance with the following:

(a) as a fixed price lump-sum, in an amount proposed by Contractor (properly itemized and supported by sufficient substantiating data to permit evaluation) and accepted by Company; or

(b) if the method set forth in Section 8.1(a) is not agreed upon by the Parties, Contractor shall perform the Work on a time and material basis.

(a) Whenever Company authorizes Contractor to perform Work contemplated under a Change Order on a time and material basis, Company’s authorization shall clearly state:

(ii). type of reimbursement including pre-agreed rates, if any, for material quantities or labor.

(i). cooperate with Company and assist in monitoring the Work being performed. As requested by Company, identify workers assigned to the Work and areas in which they are working;

(ii). identify on daily time sheets all labor, equipment and materials furnished in accordance with this authorization. Submit copies of daily time sheets within two (2) Days for Company’s review;

(v). not be required to perform time and material work past the established not to exceed limit(s) without Company’s prior written approval.

(vi). Submit costs in accordance with Section 8.8.1, plus profit and overhead of fifteen percent (15%) on the sum of such costs and additional verification supported by:

(1) labor priced at Contractor’s then current burdened direct labor rates, detailed on daily time sheets;

If a Change in the Work is initiated under this Article 8, then the Change Order and the modifications made pursuant to such Change Order shall be effective upon Company’s issuance of a Change Order with respect thereto. Notwithstanding a dispute regarding any proposed or requested Change Order, or any adjustment of one or more of the Contract Price, the Schedule (including the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date and the Guaranteed Final Completion Date), or any other such part of this Contract as may be affected with respect to a Change Order, Contractor shall proceed with the performance of such Change Order promptly following Company’s execution of the corresponding Change Order.

All claims by Contractor for adjustments pursuant to a Change Order to one or more of the Contract Price, the Schedule (including the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date and the Guaranteed Final Completion Date), or any other such part of this Contract as may be affected as a result of Change Orders under this Article 8 shall be supported by such documentation as is reasonably sufficient for Company to determine the accuracy thereof. Within thirty (30) Days of Contractor’s knowledge of Contractor’s need to provide additional supporting data for the

Change Order notice, unless Company agrees in writing to allow an additional period of time to ascertain more accurate data, Contractor shall supplement the Change Order notice with additional supporting data. Such additional data shall include, to the extent known, or through the exercise of reasonable diligence should be known at the time, at a minimum (a) the amount of compensation or delay claimed, itemized in accordance with procedures set forth herein; (b) specific facts, circumstances; (c) analysis that confirms not only that Contractor suffered the damages or delay claimed, but that the damages or delay claimed were actually a result of the act, event, or condition complained of, and that the Contract provides entitlement to an equitable adjustment in Contract Price or Schedule (including the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date and the Guaranteed Final Completion Date) for such act, event or condition; and (d) supporting documentation sufficiently detailed to permit an informed analysis of the request by Company. Failure to provide such additional information and documentation, to the extent such information and documentation was reasonably available to Contractor, within the time allowed or within the format required shall, to the extent Company’s interests are prejudiced, constitute a waiver of Contractor’s right to an adjustment.

Pending final resolution of any request in accordance with this Article 8, unless otherwise agreed in writing, Contractor shall proceed diligently with performance of the Work.

If there is any change in the Schedule covered by a Change Order, or based on a Change Order notice, Contractor shall provide Company with an updated version of Contractor’s critical path schedule reflecting the change attributable to the Change Order or event(s) giving rise to the request for adjustment.

Except for aggregate impacts which are either unknown, or despite the exercise of reasonable diligence would not be known at the time of execution of a Change Order, any Change Order signed by Company and Contractor shall constitute full compensation to Contractor for all claims for cost for direct, indirect, labor, temporary construction failures, job site, or home office overhead, stacking of trades, inefficiencies, impacts or any other cost of any kind or nature; and in the event the Change Order adjusts the Schedule, the Change Order signed by Company and Contractor constitutes complete relief to Contractor for schedule impacts for all events giving rise to the Change Order.

8.14.1 If Contractor reasonably believes that a proposed Change in the Work may negatively affect any warranty or performance commitments with regard to any Work, Contractor shall serve Company notice within fourteen (14) Days of Contractor’s receipt of such proposal of its belief and the believed effect. If Company insists, despite Contractor’s notice, upon requiring the execution of such proposal and Contractor acquiesces to Company’s request and executes the proposal, the affected warranties or performance commitments shall be adjusted

to the extent agreed between the Parties or as already determined in accordance with the provisions of Article 14, but only to the extent related to or derived from Company’s proposal.

8.14.2 If Contractor reasonably believes that a proposed Change in the Work may negatively affect safety of the Work or persons in its vicinity or would violate any applicable Laws, Contractor shall serve Company notice within fourteen (14) Days of Contractor’s receipt of such proposal of Contractor’s belief and the believed effect, and Contractor shall not be required to perform such proposal.

Company shall not use any such Documents for any other purpose.

If this Contract is terminated by Company pursuant to Section 19.1 prior to completion of the Facility, Company may, in its sole discretion, use any Drawings, Specifications, Facility manuals or other Documents prepared hereunder solely for the purpose of completing the Facility.

(e) the Work has been and shall be designed and engineered with all the skill, care and diligence to be expected of appropriately qualified and experienced professional designers and engineers with experience in carrying out works of a similar, type, nature and complexity to the Work.

The warranties set forth in Section 10.1 shall extend for a period of twelve (12) Months from the Final Completion Date; provided, however, that such period with respect to any item of the Work that is repaired, replaced, modified, or otherwise altered by Contractor pursuant to Section 10.3 shall be extended for twelve (12) Months from the date of completion of such repair, replacement, modification or alteration, but in no event shall such period exceed twenty-four (24) Months from the Final Completion Date for the subject item of the Work (for such item, the “Warranty Period”). Upon the expiration of the Warranty Period, Contractor will assign to Company, to the extent assignable, the warranties relating to the Work from any Subcontractors or vendors that extend beyond the Warranty Period, if any.

10.3.1 Company shall notify Contractor promptly (but not longer than forty-eight (48) hours) upon discovery of any Defect.

If Contractor requests, Company shall supply all relevant information relating to past maintenance, repair and operational data relating to the failed Work.

10.3.2 Contractor’s responsibility for any such warranty claim shall be limited to Contractor’s performance of Defect Remedy Work on the Defect and Contractor shall perform such Defect Remedy Work as soon as reasonably possible following Contractor’s receipt of notice and the relevant failure report from Company applicable to such Work.

Company shall provide Contractor with access to the Facility and to utilities, tools and equipment available at the Site for Contractor’s performance of any Defect Remedy Work. If Contractor elects not to carry out such Defect Remedy Work and requests Company to perform the same under this Article 10 instead of Contractor, Company may cause the Defect Remedy Work to be effected and Contractor shall reimburse Company the costs Company has reasonably incurred as a result.

10.3.4 The warranty and the liabilities and obligations of Contractor under this Contract shall not extend to replacement of normal consumables or apply to any failure to comply with the warranty that has been caused by (i) any erosion or derosion or normal wear and tear in operation of the subject Work; (ii) any failure of Company or a third party, other than Contractor or Subcontractor, to properly store, install, operate and/or maintain the subject Work in accordance with good industry practices and the O&M Manual; (iii) any modifications made to the subject Work by any person other than personnel of Contractor or Subcontractor without Contractor’s express written consent prior to such modifications; (iv) any neglect, abuse, malicious mischief, vandalism or event of Force Majeure (other than a warranty failure) affecting the subject Work; (v) any other negligent act of Company or Company’s operator; (vi) operation of the Facilities under conditions (including composition of the geothermal fluid) outside of the range specified in the Design Conditions; or (vii) operation of the Facility, other than by personnel of Contractor or Subcontractor, without Contractor’s prior express written consent, outside the Facility’s defined operation range.

THE WARRANTIES, CONDITIONS, OBLIGATION AND LIABILITIES OF CONTRACTOR AND RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF COMPANY SET FORTH IN THIS CONTRACT ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN SUBSTITUTION FOR, AND COMPANY HEREBY WAIVES, RELEASES AND RENOUNCES, ALL OTHER PRESENT AND FUTURE WARRANTIES, CONDITIONS, OBLIGATIONS, REPRESENTATIONS AND LIABILITIES OF CONTRACTOR, TOGETHER WITH ALL OTHER RIGHTS, CLAIMS AND REMEDIES OF COMPANY AGAINST CONTRACTOR, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, ARISING BY LAW OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, (A) ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE; (B) ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OR CONDITION ARISING FROM COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE; (C) ANY OBLIGATION, LIABILITY, RIGHT, CLAIM OR REMEDY IN TORT, WHETHER OR NOT ARISING FROM THE NEGLIGENCE OF CONTRACTOR OR ITS SUBCONTRACTORS, ACTUAL, PASSIVE OR IMPUTED; OR (D) ANY OBLIGATION, LIABILITY, RIGHT, CLAIM OR REMEDY FOR LOSS OF OR DAMAGE TO THE FACILITY, WORK OR ANY

ARTICLE 11. PERFORMANCE AND PERFORMANCE RELATED REMEDIES; EXCLUSIVITY; LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

11.1.1 In the event that, upon completion of the Capacity Test, the Net Deliverable Capacity result is less than the Performance Guarantee, Contractor shall have the option for the period specified in Exhibit D to undertake any necessary actions to increase the Net Deliverable Capacity of the Facility to satisfy the Performance Guarantee at its own cost. If, upon the expiration of such period, the Net Deliverable Capacity of the Facility as determined by the last Capacity Test is below such Performance Guarantee, then Contractor shall, within thirty (30) Days, pay to Company as liquidated damages, and not as penalty, the amounts set forth in Section 3 of Exhibit K (“Performance Liquidated Damages”); provided, however, that if Contractor has made any payments of Shortfall Generation Liquidated Damages to Company pursuant to Section 4.10, Contractor shall be obligated to only pay Net Performance Liquidated Damages to Company.

11.1.2 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Performance Liquidated Damages as provided in this Section 11.1 or the payments described in Section 4.10 shall not be payable if failure to achieve the Performance Guarantee is due to Force Majeure, Company Default or any other reason not attributable to Contractor.

11.1.3 If the Facility, as determined by the last Capacity Test, exceeds the Performance Guarantee in respect of Net Deliverable Capacity, Company shall pay Contractor within thirty (30) Days of Contractor’s invoice, as a bonus and in addition to the Contract Price, the amounts set forth in Section 4 of Exhibit K (“Performance Bonus”).

The Liquidated Damages payable under this Contract shall, without duplication, be the sole and exclusive remedy and measure of damages with respect to any delay in completion of the Facility or any failure to meet the Performance Guarantee. Once payment of Liquidated Damages and other amounts has been made, or the limits set forth in Section 11.5 have been met, and Contractor has performed all other Work required hereunder with respect to the Facility, Contractor shall be relieved of any further Liability with respect to such failures.

11.3.1 Notwithstanding any other provision to this Contract, Contractor’s maximum aggregate Liability under this Contract (including for Liquidated Damages) from any and all causes shall in no case exceed the sum of: the lower of one hundred percent (100%) of the Contract Price (as the same may be adjusted in accordance with this Contract) or one hundred percent (100%) of the amount of the actual payments for the Work received by Contractor hereunder.

11.3.2 Except to the extent of the Liquidated Damages, Performance Bonus, Schedule Bonus or the termination payments described in Article 19, in no event shall either Party be liable to the other for any indirect, special, incidental, consequential or exemplary damages (which includes loss of profit, revenues or savings), or for costs of procurement of substitute goods whether arising in contract, equity, tort, or other basis for Liability, even if it has been advised of the possibility of such damages.

(a) not limit Company’s right to receive proceeds of Contractor’s insurance required to be maintained pursuant to Article 13 of this Contract;

(b) not apply to limit, nor shall they include, the costs of Contractor’s or Company’s indemnification obligations under Article 15; or

(c) exclude any Liability of Contractor or Company stemming from the fraud or willful misconduct of Contractor, any Subcontractor, or their respective employees or Company or its employees, respectively.

The Parties acknowledge and agree that because of the unique nature of the Facility and the unavailability of substitute facilities, it is difficult or impossible to determine with precision the amount of damages that would or might be incurred by Company as a result of Contractor’s failure to complete the Work so that Substantial Completion is accomplished by the Guaranteed Final Completion Date and the Facility is completed by the Guaranteed Final Completion Date or so that the Facility meets the Performance Guarantee. It is understood and agreed by the Parties that Company shall be damaged by the failure of Contractor to meet such obligations and that (i) it would be impracticable or extremely difficult to fix the actual damages resulting therefrom; (ii) any Liquidated Damages that are payable under this Contract are in the nature of liquidated damages, and not a penalty, and are fair and reasonable; and (iii) such payments represent a reasonable estimate of fair compensation to Company for the losses that may reasonably be anticipated from such failure. The Parties hereby acknowledge that Section 4.6, Section 4.10 and this Article 11 represent a reasonable allocation of risk.

Subject to the provisions of Sections 9.1.1 and 9.4, legal title to and ownership of all Work and Materials provided hereunder shall pass to and vest in Company the later of (i) delivery to the Site; or (ii) upon payment of the respective milestone payment pursuant to the Milestone Payment Schedule.

Contractor shall be responsible to assure safe delivery of all Materials to the Site. Except to the extent caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Company, Contractor shall bear the risk of physical loss or destruction of or damage to the Materials and the Work, whether or not incorporated in the Facility at the Site or located on or off the Site, until the Substantial Completion Date. Notwithstanding the passage of title as provided in Section 12.1, Contractor assumes the risk of loss with respect to, and shall be obligated to replace, repair or reconstruct, any portion or all of the Materials or the Work that is lost, damaged or destroyed prior to turning over care, custody and control of such Material or Work to Company as provided in this Contract, irrespective of how such loss, damage or destruction shall have occurred. In the event of a termination of this Contract in accordance with the provisions hereof prior to such turnover, the risk of loss with respect to such Materials and Work shall pass to Company upon the effective date of termination, whether by Company or by Contractor.

Upon the Substantial Completion Date, Contractor shall turn over to Company the care, custody and control of the Facility. Company, at its expense, shall properly operate and maintain such portions of the Facility turned over to it by Contractor in accordance with applicable Laws, Prudent Industry Practices, the O&M Manual and the instructions and specific recommendations provided by Contractor to Company. Contractor may conduct periodic inspections of the turned-over equipment to ensure that Company is complying with such obligations. It is further acknowledged and agreed that Company shall provide Contractor, at all times, free and clear access to the Facility in order to allow Contractor to perform its obligations under the Contract (including completion and/or repetition of testing, Punchlist Items and warranties).

(a) obtain and maintain in full force and effect from the Commencement Date through Final Completion, at its own cost, the following policies of insurance:

(i) Builders All Risk insurance in an amount equal to cover the replacement cost of the Facility, including transit coverage for purchased plant and equipment;

(ii) Public Liability insurance with bodily injury and property damage combined single limits of at least One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence and Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) in the aggregate. Such insurance shall cover liability for bodily injury to third parties or damage to property to third parties arising in connection with the performance of the Work;

(iv) Workers Compensation insurance providing statutory limits of liability, and Employers Liability limits of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) per disease/accident/ employee, covering Contractor; and

(v) Marine transit insurance for Materials and/or Equipment procured and to be delivered pursuant to this Contract and to provide that Company is named as the additional named insured; and

(b) procure and maintain such further coverages as Contractor is required to have by any applicable Law.

In the event this insurance or any portion of it becomes commercially unavailable, Company and Contractor shall cooperate to obtain such replacement insurance as may be available and this Contract shall be modified accordingly.

(a) obtain and maintain in full force and effect, at its own cost, the following policies of insurance:

(i) All risks property insurance with a limit in an amount not less than the replacement cost of the Facility plant and equipment the care, custody and control of which has been turned over to Company by Contractor pursuant to this Contract;

(iii) Excess Liability insurance with a single limit of at least Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) per occurrence in excess of the limits of the insurance provided in paragraph (ii) above; and

(b) procure and maintain such further coverages as Company is required to have by any applicable Law.

(a) name Company and its directors, officers, representatives, employees and agents and any identified Financing Parties as additional insureds;

“Where more than one party comprises the “Insured,” each of the parties shall, for the purpose of such insurance, be considered as a separate and distinct unit/entity, and the words “the Insured” shall be considered as applying to each party in the same manner as if a separate policy has been issued to each of the said parties. The insurer shall provide indemnity to each in the same manner and to the same extent as if a separate policy has been issued to each, provided that the total amount payable in respect of compensation shall not exceed the limits of indemnity”;

(c) provide that such Contractor’s insurance may not be cancelled, non-renewed or materially changed by the insurer without giving thirty (30) Days’ prior written notice to Company;

(d) waive any and all rights of subrogation against Company and its respective directors, officers, representatives, agents and employees, and waive any other right of the insurers to any offset or counterclaim or any other deduction, whether by attachment or otherwise, in respect of any Liability of Company or its directors, officers, representatives, agents and employees; and

(e) provide that any other insurance maintained by Company and its respective directors, officers, representatives, agents and employees is in excess of such Contractor’s insurance and not contributory with it.

(a) name Contractor, Subcontractors and their respective directors, officers, representatives, employees and agents and any identified Financing Parties as additional insureds;

been issued to each, provided that the total amount payable in respect of compensation shall not exceed the limits of indemnity”;

(c) provide that such Company’s insurance may not be cancelled, non-renewed or materially changed by the insurer without giving sixty (60) Days’ prior written notice to the Contractor;

(d) waive any and all rights of subrogation against Contractor, Subcontractors and their respective directors, officers, representatives, agents and employees, and waive any other right of the insurers to any offset or counterclaim or any other deduction, whether by attachment or otherwise, in respect of any Liability of Contractor, Subcontractors or their respective directors, officers, representatives, agents and employees; and

(e) provide that any other insurance maintained by Contractor, any Subcontractors and their respective directors, officers, representatives, agents and employees is in excess of such Company’s insurance and not contributory with it.

If any of the insurance described above shall have any deductibles, the Party obligated to procure such insurance shall be solely responsible for payment of all such deductible amounts associated with such insurance.

Within thirty (30) Days of the Commencement Date (or with regard to the Builders All Risk coverage described in Section 13.1(a)(i), prior to the commencement of Work at the Site), each Party shall cause its insurers or agents to provide to the other Party for the other Party’s review and approval certificates of insurance evidencing the policies and terms specified in this Article 13. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Contractor shall be entitled to cause its insurers or agents to provide to Company the certificates of insurance evidencing its builders all risk policy only when the relevant risk arises. Failure by a Party to obtain the insurance coverage or certificates of insurance required by this Article 13 shall not in any way relieve or limit such Party’s obligations and liabilities under this Contract, nor shall the failure of any insurance company for any reason to pay claims accruing with respect to such Party’s insurance, affect, negate or release such Party from any of the provisions of this Contract, including such Party’s indemnity obligations. The insurance coverage to be provided by each Party pursuant to this Article 13 are not intended to, and shall not in any manner, limit or modify such Party’s obligations under this Contract, except to the extent any proceeds of such insurance are applied in satisfaction of such Party’s obligations. If a Party shall fail to procure or maintain its insurances, then the other Party shall have the right (but shall not be obligated) to provide and maintain such insurance at the defaulting Party’s expense and to deduct the cost thereof from any amount or amounts due to the other Party or in the event there are no such amounts due and payable, the defaulting Party shall reimburse the other Party for such costs on demand.

Company and Contractor desire that this Contract operate between them fairly and reasonably. If during the term of this Contract a dispute arises between Company and Contractor, or one Party perceives the other as acting unfairly or unreasonably, or a question of interpretation arises hereunder, then the Parties shall cause the Company’s Representative and Contractor’s Representative to promptly confer and exert their good faith efforts to reach a reasonable and equitable resolution of the issue. If Company’s Representative and Contractor’s Representative are unable to resolve the issue within fourteen (14) Days (within five (5) Days if a payment dispute), the matter shall be referred within two (2) Days of the lapse of such period to the Parties’ responsible officers for resolution. Neither Party shall seek resolution by mediation or arbitration of any dispute arising in connection with this Contract until both Parties’ responsible officers, who shall be identified by each Party from time-to-time, have had at least fourteen (14) Days (seven (7) Days if a payment dispute) to resolve the dispute following referral of the dispute to such responsible officers. If the Parties fail to settle such dispute within such period (including a failure to identify their respective responsible officers and make necessary referrals within such period), the provisions of Section 14.2 shall apply unless the Parties agree that the dispute is to be resolved according to the provisions of Section 14.3.

If a dispute under this Contract is not resolved by the Parties pursuant to Section 14.1, upon the request of either Party the Parties shall try in good faith to settle the dispute by nonbinding mediation administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Mediation Rules before resorting to arbitration. Unless otherwise agreed upon by the Parties, the mediation shall be held in King County, Washington. Each Party shall bear the cost and expense of preparing and presenting its own case (including, but not limited to, its own attorneys’ fees and costs of witnesses). Payment of the mediator and other costs and expenses of the mediation shall be divided equally among the Parties.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Article 14 to the contrary, either Party may commence litigation within thirty (30) Days prior to the date after which the commencement of litigation could be barred by any applicable statute of limitations or other law, rule, regulation, or order of similar import or in order to request injunctive or other equitable relief in connection with any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding or otherwise necessary to prevent irreparable harm. In such event, the Parties shall (except as may be prohibited by judicial order) nevertheless continue to follow the procedures set forth herein. While any disputes under this Contract are pending, including the commencement and pendency of any of the dispute resolution procedures set forth in this Article 14, the Parties shall abide by all their obligations under this Contract without prejudice to a final determination in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Article 14.

Contractor shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Company, the Financing Parties, each of their parent company and affiliates, and the directors, officers, members, agents, employees, successors and assigns of each of them (each, a “Company Indemnified Party”), from and against any and all claims, demands, and causes of action asserted by any Governmental Authority or other third party against any Company Indemnified Party (other than as a result of a breach of this Contract by such person) and any Liabilities, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by such Company Indemnified Party in connection therewith to the extent and as a result of Contractor’s performance (or that of its Subcontractors, agents, employees or consultants) under this Contract, including, but not limited to (a) on account of any violation of any Law or Permit to be complied with by Contractor hereunder; and (b) in respect of any Taxes imposed on or attributable to performance of Contractor (other than sales or use taxes in the State of Idaho except to the extent that Company has not made payment to Contractor when due hereunder Taxes in the State of Idaho; in each case other than to the extent caused by or arising from the negligence or willful misconduct of such Company Indemnified Party not attributable to Contractor or any affiliate or Subcontractor of Contractor.

Company, as one Party, and Contractor, as the other Party, shall defend, indemnify and hold each other, and each other’s lenders, Financing Parties, parent company, affiliates, officers, directors, members, agents and employees, owners of the real property comprising the Site, harmless from and against any loss, damage or liability (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs but excluding consequential damages) on account of any claim by a third party for bodily injury or property damage against the indemnified party caused by the negligent act or omission of the indemnifying party or the indemnifying party’s employees, contractors, subcontractors or agents, in connection with the performance of their respective undertakings under this Contract.

Contractor shall defend, indemnify and hold each of the Company Indemnified Parties harmless from and against (i) all liens arising from the performance of the Work by Contractor or otherwise caused by any Subcontractor or any employee, agent or Affiliate of Contractor or any of its Subcontractors or anyone else entitled to file a lien under Law; and (ii) any loss, damage or liability (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs) in connection with any and all mechanics’ liens filed in connection with Contractor’s Work hereunder. This Section 15.3 shall not apply to Liens of Contractor which result from non-payment by Company.

Contractor shall indemnify and keep indemnified and hold harmless Company Indemnified Party(ies) from and against any and all third-party suits, actions claims of any type

of character, type or description, based upon any claim of infringement of any patent or other license or intellectual property right (whether by way of trademark or otherwise) resulting directly or indirectly from furnishing of the Work pursuant to this Contract asserted by any third party against any Company Indemnified Party and any Liabilities, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by such Company Indemnified Party in connection therewith. Each Party agrees to notify the other as soon as reasonably possible of any material matters with respect to which the foregoing indemnity is likely to apply and of which the notifying Party has actual knowledge. If notified in writing of any action or claim for which the Contractor may be liable to provide indemnity, the Contractor shall, without limitation, defend (subject to reasonable consultation with Company) such action or claim at their expense and pay the cost and damages and attorneys’ fees awarded against Company in such action or claim; provided, however, that the Contractor shall have the right to control the defense and settlement of all such actions or claims, which settlement shall be subject to the consent of Company, if applicable, not to be unreasonably withheld. This Section 15.4 shall not be applicable to any suit, claim or proceeding based on infringement or violation of a patent or copyright (i) relating solely to a particular process or product of a particular manufacturer specified by Company and not offered or recommended by Contractor; or (ii) arising from modifications to the Work by Company after Final Completion of the Facility. If a suit, claim or proceeding is based upon the events set forth in the preceding sentence, Company shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Contractor to the same extent as Contractor is obligated to indemnify Company.

Company shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Contractor and its Subcontractors and their respective joint venture partners, directors, officers, agents, employees, shareholders and affiliates from any and all Liability or Proceedings arising out of:

(a) any actual or alleged injury or death of persons or damage to property arising out of the negligence, willful misconduct or default of Company (except only to the extent that the same have been caused by the negligence or default of Contractor or its Subcontractors);

(b) any and all environmental related liability or cost arising from or related to the Site, including any actual or alleged injury to persons or property related thereto or any remedial activity (except to the extent the same was caused by the negligence or default of Contractor or its Subcontractors in connection with their performance of the Work); or

A Party seeking the benefit of an indemnity under this Article 15 shall give the other Party written notice of any claim giving rise to the indemnity promptly after such Party learns of the same. The indemnifying Party may, at its own cost, conduct negotiations for the settlement of such claim and any litigation that may arise therefrom. The Party claiming the benefit of the indemnity shall not make any admission that might be prejudicial to the indemnifying Party

unless the indemnifying Party fails to take over the conduct of the negotiations or litigation within a reasonable time after having been so requested. The indemnifying Party shall not settle any indemnified claim without the indemnified Party’s prior written approval (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The Party claiming the benefit of the indemnity shall, at the request of the other Party, provide reasonable assistance for the purpose of contesting any such claim or action, and shall be paid all reasonable costs incurred in doing so and shall have the right to have its own counsel, at its expense, participate in the defense and negotiation of the claim or action.

Company may not assign any or all of its obligations, rights, title and/or interest in and to or arising out of or in connection with the Contract without the prior written approval of Contractor, which approval shall not be arbitrarily or unreasonably withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Company may assign its obligations, rights, title and/or interest in and to or arising out of or in connection with the Contract to an Affiliate who is a special purpose entity wholly owned by Company whose sole assets relate to the Facility, without Contractor’s consent. No assignment of Company’s obligations, rights, title and/or interest in and to or arising out of or in connection with the Contract shall relieve Company of any obligation hereunder.

Contractor may not assign any or all of its obligations, rights, title and/or interest in and to or arising out of or in connection with the Contract without the prior written approval of Company, which approval shall not be arbitrarily or unreasonably withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Contractor may assign its obligations, rights, title and/or interest in and to or arising out of or in connection with the Contract to an Affiliate, without Company’s consent. No assignment of Contractor’s obligations, rights, title and/or interest in and to or arising out of or in connection with the Contract shall relieve Contractor of any obligation hereunder.

This Contract shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns (as provided for by Sections 16.1 and 16.2) of the Parties.

Subject to Section 17.2, Contractor may enter into Subcontracts for the performance of the Work and shall be solely responsible for the satisfactory performance of the Work and the acts, defaults and omissions of any Subcontractor notwithstanding any review, approval or other action taken by Company with regard to the selection of a Subcontractor hereunder. Contractor

shall be responsible for the actions of the Subcontractors in their performance of the Work as if such actions were those of Contractor. The issuance of any Subcontract shall not relieve Contractor of any of its obligations under this Contract. All Subcontracts shall be consistent with and in no way contrary to or inconsistent with any of the terms or provisions of this Contract. No contractual relationship shall exist between Company and any Subcontractor with respect to the Work to be performed hereunder, and no Subcontractor is intended to be or shall be deemed a third-party beneficiary of this Contract. Except as expressly set forth in Section 17.2, nothing contained herein shall (a) create any contractual relationship between any Subcontractor and Company or (b) obligate Company to pay or arrange for the payment of any Subcontractor.

Contractor shall ensure that Subcontracts made with Subcontractors having a value of Two Million Dollars or more are made in writing. Contractor shall make reasonable efforts to require that each such Subcontract shall provide that the rights and obligations of Contractor under each such Subcontract are assignable to Company, its successors and assigns upon Company’s written request accompanied by proof of source of payment to such Subcontractor’s satisfaction, following any termination of this Contract.

Contractor shall not subcontract the supply of any equipment for a price of in excess of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), except to Major Vendors approved by Company, which approval shall not be arbitrarily or unreasonably withheld. The vendors appearing on the Approved Vendors List set forth in Exhibit F have been approved by Company. The Approved Vendors List attached as Exhibit F is preliminary and may be amended in the following manner. In the case the need arises for Contractor to add a Major Vendor to the Approved Vendors List, in Contractor’s opinion, Contractor shall propose such addition to the Company’s Representative in writing identifying the type of equipment that could be purchased from such Major Vendor. Within five (5) Days after receipt of Contractor’s proposal, the Company’s Representative shall have the right to advise Contractor of any such potential Major Vendors to which it reasonably objects, together with the reasons for objection. Contractor shall not add any potential Major Vendor to the list to which the Company’s Representative so reasonably objects. If the Company’s Representative fails to respond within such five (5) Day period, Contractor shall have the right to add said potential Major Vendor to the list.

The provisions of this Article 17 shall not apply to the suppliers of equipment for the OEC.

Company may suspend performance of the Work by Contractor hereunder as provided in Section 8.1.1.

Contractor shall be entitled to payment for Work that has been completed as of the effective date of such suspension or concerning which delivery has been suspended if such suspension has not ceased within ten (10) Days of the effective date of such suspension within thirty (30) Days of the issuance of an invoice therefore by Contractor.

In the event that the duration of the suspensions by Company exceed ninety (90) Days in the aggregate, then Contractor may give notice to the Company’s Representative requesting permission to proceed. If permission is not granted within twenty (20) Days of the delivery of such notice, Contractor may terminate its obligations under the Contract by so notifying Company in writing, and Contractor shall be entitled to payments as described in Section 19.2.2.

Contractor may suspend performance of the Work hereunder, in whole or in part, upon ten (10) Days’ prior written notice to Company of such suspension (i) where Company has withheld from payment any amount invoiced by Contractor unless within fifteen (15) Days of the Company’s Representative’s receipt of any such invoice Company has released such payment or such withheld payment has been deposited into the joint bank account of Company and Contractor with Bank of America or other bank acceptable to Company and Contractor or otherwise set aside for payment to Contractor in a form acceptable to Contractor pending resolution of the dispute in accordance with the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Article 14; (ii) the aggregate amount of the Contract Price payments being withheld by Company, whether or not deposited in the above-referenced account, equals Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000); or (iii) Company breaches or is in default under any financing obligations with any Financing Parties. Such suspension shall continue for the period specified in the suspension notice.

Provided that suspension is not necessary by reason of a default on the part of Contractor that has not been corrected, in the event of suspension pursuant to this Article 18 the Contract Price shall be increased by the amount equal to the additional costs reasonably incurred by Contractor as a result of the suspension (including costs for the purpose of safeguarding, storage, personnel, Subcontractors or rented equipment costs, demobilization and re-mobilization costs and increased costs or charges incurred for rescheduling) and the scheduled dates specified in this Contract, the Schedule, and all other dates and milestones herein by which Contractor’s

responsibilities are measured shall be adjusted to reflect any delays resulting from such suspension (including a period equal to the suspension period, a period for demobilization and re-mobilization plus any additional period required). If Contractor shall, solely in consequence of such suspension, be required to perform any obligations under its warranty at a time which exceeds the original schedule for warranty obligations that would have been applied if there were no suspension, the additional cost of complying with the warranty obligations shall be added to the Contract Price.

Upon receipt of notice to resume the Work in accordance with this Contract, Contractor shall examine the Facility and the Work affected by the suspension. Contractor shall make good any deterioration or defect in or loss of such Facility or Work that may have occurred during suspension, and costs incurred in making such examinations and making good and resuming Work shall be added to the Contract Price, all of which Work shall be at Company’s expense unless such suspension occurred by reason of a default on the part of Contractor that was not corrected within the time period specified in Section 19.1.

19.1.1 Company may terminate the Work and this Contract after the occurrence of one or more of the following events of default and if, following a written notice from Company to cure such event of default, said event of default continues to exist for ten (10) Days in the circumstances described in (a) below, and thirty (30) Days in the circumstances described in (b) below:

(a) the occurrence of an Insolvency Event involving Contractor; or

(b) Contractor defaults in its performance under a material provision of this Contract; provided, however, that Company may not terminate this Contract if, after notice of such default and prior to expiration of the thirty (30) Day period set forth above, Contractor has commenced and is diligently pursuing efforts to cure such breach.

19.1.2 In the event of termination as provided in Section 19.1.1, Company shall compensate Contractor for all payment milestones achieved plus a pro rata portion of the payment milestone amounts for payment milestones partially achieved as of termination, but Company shall not compensate Contractor for any other costs associated with the termination of the Work. Upon termination and such payment, Contractor shall deliver to Company possession of the Work in its then condition, including Drawings and Specifications and contracts with Subcontractors, and construction supplies dedicated solely to construction of the Facility.

19.1.3 In the event of termination as provided in Section 19.1.1: (a) Company shall have the right, at its sole option, to assume and become liable for any reasonable written obligations and commitments that Contractor may have in good faith undertaken with third parties in connection with the Work, which obligations and commitments are by Law or by their

terms assumable by Company and are not covered by the payments made to Contractor under Section 19.1.2; and (b) Contractor shall be entitled to draw the full amount of the Letter of Credit as of the date of such event of termination. If Company elects to assume any obligation of Contractor as described in this Section 19.1.3, then as a condition precedent to Company’s compliance with any subsection of this Article 19, Contractor shall execute all papers and take all other reasonable steps requested by Company that may be required to vest in Company all rights, set-offs, benefits and titles necessary to such assumption by Company of such obligations. Company agrees to indemnify and hold Contractor harmless against any Liability under any obligations assumed by Company pursuant hereto.

19.2.1 Contractor may terminate the Work and this Contract after the occurrence of one or more of the following events of default and if, following a written notice from Contractor to Company to cure such event of default, said event of default continues to exist for ten (10) Days in the event of a payment default, and thirty (30) Days in the event of any of the other defaults described below:

(a) the occurrence of an Insolvency Event involving Company;

(b) Company defaults in its performance under a material provision of this Contract, including the obligation to make any payment hereunder; provided, however, that Contractor may not terminate this Contract if, for all cases except for the obligation to make or complete any payment, after notice of such default and prior to expiration of the thirty (30) Day period set forth above, Company has commenced and is diligently pursuing efforts to cure such breach; or

(c) Company breaches or is in default under any financing obligations with any Financing Parties and fails to cure such breach or default within the cure or other period provided in the applicable agreement or instrument.

19.2.2 In the event of termination as provided in Section 19.2.1, Company shall pay to Contractor the greater of (a) that portion of the Contract Price associated with all payment milestones achieved, including any amount in the Letter of Credit which amount Contractor may draw down, plus a pro rata portion of the payment milestone amounts for payment milestones partially achieved up to the date of Contractor’s receipt of notice of termination plus any costs attributable to and incurred in terminating the Work, including cancellation charges owed to third parties and additional compensation in the amount of twenty percent (20%) for the portion of the remaining unpaid Contract Price, but in no event shall the total amount exceed the Contract Price, or (b) the termination amount payable by Company to Contractor as specified in Section 19.4. If all such payments are not received within thirty (30) Days of termination, without derogation from other remedies available to Contractor, the license granted to Company under Section 9.4 shall automatically terminate and be of no further effect.

If (a) Company wholly suspends the Work on the Facility for six (6) consecutive months due to the occurrence of a Force Majeure suffered by Company; or (b) Contractor is prevented from performing the Work for a period of six (6) consecutive months as a result of the occurrence of a Force Majeure suffered by Contractor, then the affected Party may terminate this Contract at no cost or penalty, other than the payment of all accrued payment obligations due and payable pursuant to this Contract (excluding loss of anticipated profits for the Work not yet performed by Contractor) upon not less than fifteen (15) Days prior written notice to the other Party; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 19.3 shall relieve or excuse either Party from its obligations under Sections 19.5 and 19.6.

If Company determines it is in its best interest to terminate this Contract for its convenience, then Company may terminate this Contract at no cost or penalty if such notice is given prior to Company issuing Contractor a Notice to Proceed pursuant to Section 4.1. Company may also terminate this Contract for convenience after issuing Contractor a Notice to Proceed at no cost or penalty, other than the payment by Company to Contractor of the sum of (a) the greater of (i) Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) less payments previously made by Company to Contractor under this Contract prior to termination or (ii) all accrued payment obligations due and payable pursuant to this Contract plus a pro rata portion of the payment milestone amounts for payment milestones partially achieved up to the date of Contractor’s receipt of notice of termination (excluding loss of anticipated profits for the Work not yet performed by Contractor), (b) any costs attributable to and incurred in terminating the Work, including cancellation charges owed to third parties, and (c) One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) for miscellaneous expenses and/or loss of anticipated profit for the Work not yet performed by Contractor. Such payment shall be made by Company to Contractor not less than fifteen (15) Days after Contractor has provided Company written notice of the amounts due. Nothing in this Section 19.4 shall relieve or excuse either Party from its obligations under Sections 19.6 and 19.7. It is understood and agreed by the Parties that Contractor shall be damaged by Company’s termination of this Contract for convenience and that (i) it would be impracticable or extremely difficult to fix the actual damages resulting therefrom; (ii) the termination fee described in clause (c) above is in the nature of liquidated damages, and not a penalty, and is fair and reasonable; and (iii) such payments represent a reasonable estimate of fair compensation to Contractor for the losses that may reasonably be anticipated from such termination.

Company’s payment to Contractor pursuant to either Section 19.3 or 19.4, shall be Contractor’s exclusive remedy against Company in the event of such termination.

Upon early termination of the Work, each Party shall be immediately released from any and all obligations to the other Party (except for the obligation of each Party to pay any amount then accrued or due hereunder, or otherwise due under this Article 19), Contractor immediately

shall discontinue the Work and remove its personnel and construction equipment from the Site, and except for termination due to Company’s default Company shall be entitled to take exclusive possession of the Materials and all or any part of the Materials delivered or en route to the Site, to the extent that Company has paid Contractor all undisputed amounts hereunder then due and payable from Company to Contractor. Contractor shall immediately take such steps as are reasonably necessary to preserve and protect Work completed and in progress.

Upon the early termination of the Work pursuant to this Article 19, including pursuant to Section 19.4, if requested by the Company, Contractor shall make reasonable efforts to cancel existing contracts with Subcontractors performing Work at the Site. If early termination of the Work occurs due to the default by Contractor, Contractor shall also, upon request by Company (a) deliver and assign to Company, pursuant to a document produced by Contractor and reasonably acceptable to Company, any and all Subcontracts, purchase orders, bonds and options made by Contractor for Work to be performed at the Site (but in no event shall Company be liable for any action or default of Contractor occurring prior to such delivery and assignment (except to the extent such action or default was caused by Company) and Contractor shall defend and hold harmless Company against any such liability); and (b) deliver to Company originals of all Subcontracts and all papers and documents relating to Contractor Permits, orders placed, bills and invoices, lien releases related to the Work. All deliveries hereunder shall be made free and clear of any liens, security interests or encumbrances, except as may arise hereunder, be created by Company or may arise in favor of Contractor due to non-payment by Company. Except as provided herein, no action taken by Company or Contractor after the termination of the Work and/or this Contract shall prejudice any other rights or remedies of Company or Contractor provided by Law, this Contract or otherwise upon such termination.

Termination or expiration of this Contract (a) shall not relieve either Party of its obligations with respect to the confidentiality of the other Party’s information as set forth in Article 21; (b) shall not relieve either Party of any obligations hereunder which expressly or by implication survive termination hereof; and (c) except as otherwise provided in any provision of this Contract expressly limiting the liability of either Party, shall not relieve either Company or Contractor of any obligations or liabilities for loss or damage to the other Party arising out of or caused by acts or omissions of such Party prior to the effectiveness of such termination or arising out of such termination, and shall not relieve Contractor of its obligations as to portions of the Work or other services already performed or of obligations assumed by Contractor prior to the date of termination. This Section 19.8 shall survive the termination or expiration of this Contract.

Company and Contractor shall keep confidential and shall not, without the written consent of the other Party, divulge to any third party Information of the other Party.

Subject always to Sections 9.1.1, 9.4 and 21.1, Company shall not use any Information of Contractor for any purpose other than the operation and maintenance of the Facility. Similarly, Contractor shall not use any Information received from Company for any purpose other than the design, procurement of the Facility, construction or such other Work as required for the performance of the Contract.

The obligations of any Party under Sections 21.1 and 21.2 shall not apply to Information of the other Party that:

(a) now or hereafter enters the public domain through no fault of the receiving Party;

(b) can be proved to have been in the possession of the receiving Party at the time of disclosure and which was not previously obtained, directly or indirectly, from the other Party hereto;

(c) otherwise lawfully becomes available to the receiving Party from a third party under no obligation of confidentiality; or

(d) the receiving Party is required by law or any relevant stock exchange or other competent regulatory authority to publish or otherwise disclose but only to the extent that it is necessary to publish or disclose the same.

Company shall not remove or detach from the Work or any part thereof any of Contractor’s trademarks, designs, names, logos or markings.

22.1 All notices and other communications required or permitted by this Contract shall be in writing and delivered by hand (including by messenger or courier) or by airmail post or special courier or by telecopier or facsimile (receipt confirmed), at the addresses or numbers set forth below or at such other addresses or numbers as the Party receiving notice shall

subsequently designate by way of replacement by giving ten (10) Days’ written notice to the other Party pursuant to this Section:

22.2 Any notice sent by telecopier or facsimile transmission shall be confirmed within two (2) Days after dispatch by notice sent by airmail or special courier.

22.3 Any notice or confirmation of notice sent by airmail or special courier shall be deemed (in the absence of evidence of earlier receipt) to have been delivered ten (10) Days after dispatch and in proving the fact of dispatch, it shall be sufficient to show that the envelope containing such notice was properly addressed, stamped and conveyed to the postal authorities or courier service for transmission by airmail or special courier.

22.4 Any notice delivered by hand, facsimile, telecopier or telegram shall be deemed to have been delivered on the date of its dispatch.

22.5 In this Article 22, notices shall include any approvals, consents, instructions, orders, and certificates to be given under the Contract.

This Contract and the Exhibits hereto shall in all respects be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of Idaho, without regard to the principles of conflict of laws. The selection of Idaho law shall conclusively be presumed to be a significant, material and reasonable relationship with the State of Idaho and shall be enforced whether or not there are other relationships with the State of Idaho. Any dispute arising under or related to this Agreement shall be resolved by a court of competent jurisdiction in King County, Washington and each party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits to such exclusive jurisdiction and venue.

This Contract and any documents or instruments delivered pursuant hereto shall be construed without regard to the identity of the person who drafted the various provisions of the same. Each and every provision of this Contract and such other documents and instruments shall be construed as though the parties participated equally in the drafting of the same. Consequently, the parties acknowledge and agree that any rule of construction that a document is to be construed against the drafting party shall not be applicable to this Contract or such other documents or instruments.

Contractor and its Subcontractors shall be independent contractors with respect to the Work, irrespective of whether such Subcontractors are selected or approved by Company, and neither Contractor nor its Subcontractors, nor the employees of either, shall be deemed to be the servants, employees, representatives or agents of Company. This Contract does not create any agency, partnership, joint venture or other joint relationship between Company and Contractor. Nothing contained in this Contract shall be construed (a) to authorize either Party hereto to act as agent for the other Party or to permit a Party hereto to undertake any contract or other obligation for the other Party or (b) to create any agency, partnership, joint venture or other joint relationship between the Parties.

In the event that any of the provisions or portions, or applications thereof, of this Contract become invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under the Law of any jurisdiction, Company and Contractor shall negotiate an equitable adjustment in the provisions of this Contract with a view toward effecting the purpose of this Contract, and the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions or portions, or applications thereof, shall not be affected thereby.

This Contract may not be changed or amended orally, and no waiver hereunder may be oral. Any change or amendment or any waiver of any term or provision of, or consent granted under, this Contract shall only be effective if given in writing and signed by the waiving or consenting Party (or both Parties in the case of a change or amendment).

The provisions of Sections 2.4, 3.3, 5, 9.1.1, 9.4, 9.5, 11.2, 11.3, 11.4, and all of Articles 5, 14, 15, 19, 21, 22 and 23 shall survive termination or expiration of the Contract for whatever reason.

This Contract may be executed in separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

This Contract and the Exhibits sets forth the full and complete understanding of the Parties relating to the subject matter hereof as of the Effective Date and supersedes any and all negotiations, agreements, understandings and representations made or dated prior thereto with respect to such subject matter. Contractor shall not be bound by, and specifically objects to, any term, condition or other provision that is different from or in addition to the provisions of this Contract (whether or not it would materially alter this Contract), which is proffered by Company in any purchase order, receipt, acceptance, confirmation, correspondence or otherwise, unless Contractor specifically agrees to such provision in a written instrument signed by Contractor.

Subject to Section 23.5, no relaxation, forbearance, delay, indulgence or failure by either Party to enforce any of the terms, covenants, conditions or other provisions of this Contract at any time shall in any way prejudice, affect, limit, modify or waive that Party’s right thereafter to enforce or compel strict compliance with every term, covenant, condition or other provision hereof, any course of dealing or custom of the trade notwithstanding. No delay or omission on the part of a Party shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any waiver by either Party of any breach of the Contract operate as a waiver of any subsequent or continuing breach of the Contract.

This Contract may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument. To expedite the process of entering into this Contract, the parties acknowledge that Transmitted Copies of this Contract shall be equivalent to original documents until such time (if any) as original documents are completely executed and delivered. “Transmitted Copies” mean copies

that are reproduced or transmitted via facsimile or another process of complete and accurate reproduction and transmission.

Company and Contractor shall use reasonable endeavors to implement the provisions of this Contract, and for such purpose each, at the request and expense of the other, shall, without further consideration, promptly execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered to the other such, consents, documents or other instruments in addition to those required by this Contract as the other may reasonably require to implement any provision of this Contract.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have caused this Contract to be executed on the date first above written.

The allocation and division of the work to be performed by Company and Contractor is defined below for the Facility and the remainder of the Project. As used in this Exhibit A, references to “Power Plant” shall have the same meaning as Facility and “Geothermal Fluid” shall have the meaning ascribed to that term in Exhibit D. All technical work is as defined in Exhibit C. The list below does not replace Exhibit C, but simply confirms and clarifies specific areas of conformance with that document.
