                     FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW

                     IT IS HEREBY FOUND AND DETERMINED THAT:

         A. Pursuant to Rule 7052 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure
(the "Bankruptcy Rules"), findings of fact shall be construed as conclusions of
law and conclusions of law shall be construed as findings of fact when
appropriate.

         B. All capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the
meanings ascribed to such terms in the Heber Reorganization Plan, unless the
context otherwise requires. Paragraph headings or captions are inserted for
convenience of reference only are not intended to be a part of or to affect the
interpretation of this Confirmation Order.

         C. Jurisdiction and Venue. This Court has jurisdiction over the sale of
the Geothermal Debtor Equity and the chapter 11 chapter 11 cases of the (i)
Heber Debtors (the "Heber Reorganization Cases"), (ii) Covanta Energy Americas,
Inc., Covanta Heber Field Energy, Inc., Heber Field Energy II, Inc., Heber Loan
Partners, ERC Energy, Inc. and ERC Energy II, Inc. (collectively, the "Debtor
Sellers")(1), (iii) Covanta Geothermal Operations, Inc. (the "HFC Operator"),
Covanta Imperial Power Services, Inc. (the "HGC Operator") and Covanta SIGC
Geothermal Operations, Inc. (the "SIGC Operator" and together with the HFC
Operator and the HGC Operator, the "Debtor Operators"), and (iv) the other
Debtors in these chapter 11 proceedings, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. ss.ss. 157 and
1334. Venue is proper before this Court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. ss.ss. 1408 and
1409. Confirmation of the Heber Reorganization Plan and the sale of the
Geothermal Debtor Equity are core proceedings under 28 U.S.C. ss. 157(b)(2), and
this Court has exclusive jurisdiction to determine whether the Heber
Reorganization Plan complies with the applicable provisions of title 11 of the
United States Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") and the Bankruptcy Rules and should
be confirmed.

         D. Judicial Notice. This Court takes judicial notice of the docket of
the Heber Reorganization Cases, which are jointly administered under Case No.
02-40826 (CB), captioned as In re Ogden New York Services, Inc., maintained by
the Clerk of the Court, including, without limitation, all pleadings and other
documents filed, all orders entered, and all evidence and arguments made,
proffered or adduced at, the hearings held before the Court during the pendency
of the Heber Reorganization Cases, including the following:

             (i) On September 5, 2003, Caithness Heber Field I, LLC, Caithness
Heber Field II, LLC, Caithness Heber Geothermal I, LLC, Caithness Heber
Geothermal II, LLC, Caithness Mammoth, LLC, Caithness SIGC GP, LLC and Caithness
SIGC LP, LLC (collectively, the "Initial Buyers"), Covanta and Sellers executed
an ownership interest purchase agreement (Docket No. 2066) (the "Original
Agreement") providing, among other things, for the sale of the Equity Interests
related to the Geothermal Business, as further described in the Original
Agreement, subject to higher or better offers.

             (ii) On September 8, 2003, the Debtors filed a motion seeking,
among other things, approval of the Original Agreement (subject to higher or
better offers pursuant to a Court-approved bidding and auction process) and the
transaction contemplated therein, including the dismissal of the Heber
Reorganization Cases (Docket No. 2057) (the "Sale Motion"). The Sale Motion
included a reservation of rights, subject to the limitations provided in Section
14.14 of the Original Agreement, stating that the Heber Debtors may determine to
proceed with the sale of the Geothermal Debtor Equity and related assets on the
basis of a plan of reorganization or the Sale Motion.

             (iii) Consistent with the reservation of rights contained in the
Sale Motion and the Original Agreement, on September 8, 2003, the Heber Debtors
and certain of their Debtor affiliates filed the Joint Plan of Reorganization
Under Chapter 11 Of The Bankruptcy Code (Docket No. 2060) and the related
disclosure statement (Docket No. 2062), both of which preserved the Heber
Debtors' rights, subject to the limitations provided in Section 14.14 of the
Original Agreement, to proceed with the sale of the Geothermal Debtor Equity and
related assets on the basis of a plan of reorganization or the Sale Motion.

             (iv) On September 24, 2003, the Heber Debtors filed their First
Amended Joint Plan Of Reorganization Under Chapter 11 Of The Bankruptcy Code
(Docket No. 2171) (the "First Amended Heber Plan").

----------------
(1)  In the event that the Buyers directly acquire the Equity Interests in the
     SIGC Project Company rather than the Equity Interests in SIGC One Sub and
     SIGC Two Sub in accordance with Section 2.1 of the Purchase Agreement, the
     term "Debtor Sellers" shall also include SIGC Two Sub and Amor.
<PAGE>

             (v) On September 25, 2003, the Sellers, Covanta and the Initial
Buyers entered into an amended and restated ownership interest purchase
agreement (Docket No. 2214), thereby amending and restating the Original
Agreement, and providing for a base purchase price of $170,000,000, subject to a
working capital purchase price adjustment mechanism. The purchase agreement also
provided that the Sellers (in consultation with the Initial Buyers) could seek
to consummate the transaction contemplated therein on the basis of an order
approving the sale pursuant to section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or an order
confirming a plan of reorganization of the Heber Debtors under section 1129 of
the Bankruptcy Code.

             (vi) On September 29, 2003, the Court entered the Bidding
Procedures Order approving competitive bidding and auction procedures, including
the approval of the Break-Up Fee and Expense Reimbursement (as each term is
defined therein) for the purpose of obtaining the highest or best offer for the
Geothermal Debtor Equity and/or related assets.

             (vii) On October 3, 2003, this Court held a hearing to consider the
approval of the Disclosure Statement and the related objections and entered the
Disclosure Materials Order, thereby approving the adequacy of the Disclosure
Statement.

            (viii) In accordance with the terms of the Disclosure Materials
Order, the Heber Debtors made certain non-material revisions to the First
Amended Heber Plan and filed the Heber Debtors' Second Amended Joint Plan Of
Reorganization Under Chapter 11 Of The Bankruptcy Code, dated as of October 3,
2003 (Docket No. 2374) on October 13, 2003.

             (ix) On November 19, 2003, the Debtors held an auction (the
"Auction") before this Court for the purpose of receiving higher or better
offers pursuant to the Bidding Procedures Order. As a result of the Auction, the
Debtors determined that the offer submitted by Orheber 1 Inc., Orheber 2 Inc.,
Orheber 3 Inc. and Ormammoth Inc. (collectively, the "Buyers") contained in the
purchase agreement, dated as of November 21, 2003 (the "Purchase Agreement"), as
may be amended and supplemented by the Agreement, dated as of November 21, 2003,
by and among Ormat Nevada, Inc., the Debtors, the Committee, the Bondholders
Committee, and the DIP Agents, which provides for a base purchase price of
$214,000,000, subject to a working capital purchase price adjustment mechanism
(the "Purchase Price"), was the Successful Bid (as defined in the Bidding
Procedures Order). Among other things, the Purchase Agreement provides for the
sale of the (i) Equity Interests (collectively, the "SIGC Interests") held by
Debtor Covanta Energy Americas, Inc. in SIGC One Sub and SIGC Two Sub, which
entities, in turn, collectively own all Equity Interests in Amor and all the
Equity Interests in SIGC Project Company; (ii) Equity Interests (collectively,
the "HGC Interests") held by Debtors Heber Loan Partners, ERC Energy, Inc. and
ERC Energy II, Inc. in HGC Project Company; (iii) Equity Interests
(collectively, the "HFC Interests") held by Debtors Covanta Heber Field Energy,
Inc. and Heber Field Energy II, Inc. in HFC Project Company; and (iv) equity
interests (collectively, the "MP Interests") held by non-debtor affiliate
Covanta Power Pacific, Inc. in non-debtor affiliates Pacific Geothermal Company
and Mammoth Geothermal Company, which entities, in turn, collectively own 50% of
the partnership interests in Mammoth Pacific, L.P. The SIGC Interests, HGC
Interests and HFC Interests are collectively referred to herein as the
"Geothermal Debtor Equity," and, together with the MP Interests, the "Geothermal
Interests;" provided, however, that in the event the Buyers directly acquire the
Equity Interests in the SIGC Project Company rather than the Equity Interests in
SIGC One Sub and SIGC Two Sub in accordance with Section 2.1 of the Purchase
Agreement, the term "SIGC Interests" shall refer only to the partnership
interests in SIGC Project Company.

             (x) In accordance with the terms of the Disclosure Materials Order,
the Heber Debtors made certain non-material revisions to the Second Heber Plan,
and on November 21, 2003, filed the Heber Reorganization Plan attached hereto.

             (xi) On November 21, 2003, the Court held the Confirmation Hearing
where the Court considered confirmation of the Heber Reorganization Plan and the
sale of the Geothermal Interests to the Buyers as contemplated by the Purchase
Agreement .

         E. Transmittal and Service of Notices. Notice of the Confirmation
Hearing and the relevant deadlines for submission of objections, as prescribed
by this Court in the Disclosure Materials Order, has been provided and is
adequate and sufficient pursuant to section 1128 of the Bankruptcy Code,
Bankruptcy Rules 2002(b) and 3020 and other applicable law and rules. Notice of
the Auction has been provided in accordance with the Bidding Procedures Order.
Additionally, the Disclosure Statement and Heber Reorganization Plan, which were
transmitted and served as set forth in the affidavits of mailing filed with this
Court (Docket Nos. 2696, 2697, 2698, 2699), were transmitted and served in
compliance with the Disclosure Materials Order and the Bankruptcy Rules. Such
transmittal and service was adequate and sufficient, and no other or further
notice of such materials shall be required. Publication of the Confirmation
Hearing Notice as set forth in the affidavits of publication (Docket Nos. 2540,
2603 and 2604) was adequate and sufficient and no other or further notice shall
be required.

         F. Burden of Proof. The Heber Debtors, as proponents of the Heber
Reorganization Plan, have the burden of proving the elements of section 1129 of
the Bankruptcy Code by a preponderance of the evidence. The Heber Debtors have
satisfied this burden.

         G. Compliance with Section 1129(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Heber
Reorganization Plan complies with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy
Code, thereby satisfying section 1129(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code.

             (i) Proper Classification. The classification scheme of Claims and
Equity Interests under the Heber Reorganization Plan is reasonable. Claims or
Equity Interests in each Class are substantially similar to other Claims or
Equity Interests in such Class, and the Heber Reorganization Plan therefore
satisfies the requirements of section 1122(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.

             (ii) Designation of Classes. The Heber Reorganization Plan properly
designates Classes of Claims and Equity Interests in accordance with the
applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including sections 1122 and
1123(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code.

             (iii) Specified Unimpaired Classes. The Heber Reorganization Plan
specifies that Classes 1, 2H, 3H, 7 and 8 are Unimpaired, thereby satisfying the
requirements of section 1123(a)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code. Pursuant to section
1126(f) of the Bankruptcy Code, Classes 1, 2H, 3H, 7 and 8 are deemed to accept
the Heber Reorganization Plan.

             (iv) Specified Impaired Classes. The Heber Reorganization Plan
specifies that Classes 9 and 14 are Impaired, thereby satisfying the
requirements of section 1123(a)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code. Pursuant to section
1126(g) of the Bankruptcy Code, Classes 9 and 14 are deemed to reject the Heber
Reorganization Plan by virtue of receiving no distributions thereunder.

             (v) No Discrimination. The Heber Reorganization Plan provides for
the same treatment of each Claim or Equity Interest of a particular Class,
thereby satisfying the requirements of section 1123(a)(4) of the Bankruptcy
Code.

             (vi) Implementation of Plan. The Heber Reorganization Plan provides
for adequate means for its implementation, including, but not limited, to the
(i) the sale of the Geothermal Interests to Buyers as provided in the Purchase
Agreement, (ii) the assumption, assignment or transfer of the Contracts (as
defined herein) and the payment of Cure Amounts (as defined herein) in respect
thereto, and (iii) the termination of the DIP Financing Facility with respect to
the Heber Debtors and the release by the DIP Lenders of the Heber Debtors from
any claims thereunder and security interests granted in support of the DIP
Financing Facility, subject to provisions of the Heber Reorganization Plan. The
Heber Reorganization Plan therefore satisfies the requirements of section
1123(a)(5) of the Bankruptcy Code.

             (vii) Discharge; Injunction; Exculpation; Releases. The provisions
in Sections 11.3, 11.5, 11.7, 11.8 and 11.0 of the Heber Reorganization Plan are
fair and necessary to the reorganization of the Heber Debtors and the Non-Heber
Debtors, and the parties receiving the benefit of the releases contained in
Article XI of the Heber Reorganization Plan have made substantial contributions
toward the reorganization of the Heber Debtors, which are integral to the
effectuation of the Heber Reorganization Plan.

             (viii) Designation of Officers, Directors or Trustee. Section 6.4
of the Heber Reorganization Plan and the representations on the record at the
Confirmation Hearing are consistent with the interests of creditors, equity
security holders and public policy in accordance with section 1123(a)(7) of the
Bankruptcy Code.

             (ix) Additional Plan Provisions. The Heber Reorganization Plan
contains no provision that is inconsistent with the applicable provisions of the
Bankruptcy Code and therefore satisfies section 1123(b)(6) of the Bankruptcy
Code.

             (x) Identity of Proponents. In accordance with Bankruptcy Rule
3016(a), the Heber Reorganization Plan is dated and identifies the entities
submitting it as proponents.

         H. Compliance with Bankruptcy Code. The Heber Debtors, as proponents of
the Heber Reorganization Plan, have complied with each of the applicable
provisions of the Bankruptcy Code including, without limitation, sections 1125
and 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code, and therefore have satisfied the requirements
of section 1129(a)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, as follows: (a) the Heber Debtors
are proper debtors under section 109 of the Bankruptcy Code and proper
proponents of the Heber Reorganization Plan under section 1121(a) of the
Bankruptcy Code; (b) the Heber Debtors have complied with each of the applicable
provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, except as otherwise provided or permitted by
orders of the Court; and (c) the Heber Debtors have complied with each of the
applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules and the
Disclosure Materials Order in transmitting notices and disclosure materials with
respect to the Heber Reorganization Plan.

         I. Proposed in Good Faith. The Heber Reorganization Plan has been
proposed in good faith and not by any means forbidden by law, thereby satisfying
the requirements of section 1129(a)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code. In determining
that the Heber Reorganization Plan has been proposed in good faith, the Court
has examined the totality of the circumstances surrounding the filing and
prosecution of the Heber Reorganization Cases and the formulation of the Heber
Reorganization Plan. The Heber Reorganization Cases were filed, and the Heber
Reorganization Plan was proposed with, the proper purpose of maximizing the
value of the Heber Debtors' estates by providing a means through which the
Reorganized Heber Debtors may emerge from chapter 11 as viable, operating
enterprises and through which creditors may expeditiously receive Distributions
in respect of their Claims.

         J. The Heber Reorganization Plan is the product of extensive, arms'
length negotiations among the Debtors, the Agent Banks, the Informal Committee
of 9.25% Debenture Holders (the "Bondholders Committee"), the Committee, the
Buyers and each of their respective counsel and financial advisors. The Heber
Reorganization Plan reflects the results of these negotiations and serves the
interests of all the Heber Debtors' Estates.

         K. Payments for Services or Costs and Expenses. Any payments made or to
be made by the Heber Debtors for services or for costs and expenses in, or in
connection with, the Heber Reorganization Cases or the Heber Reorganization Plan
have, to the extent required by the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules or the
Orders of this Court, been approved by, or are subject to the approval of, this
Court as reasonable. Accordingly, the Heber Reorganization Plan satisfies the
requirements of section 1129(a)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code.

         L. Directors, Officers and Insiders. The Heber Debtors have complied
with section 1129(a)(5) of the Bankruptcy Code. Section 6.4 of the Heber
Reorganization Plan provides that the boards of directors and/or officers of
each of the Heber Debtors shall resign on or prior to the Effective Date. Buyers
have complied with the applicable provisions of section 1129(a)(5) of the
Bankruptcy Code.

         M. No Rate Changes. Section 1129(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code is
satisfied because the Heber Reorganization Plan does not provide for any change
in rates over which a governmental regulatory commission has jurisdiction.

         N. Best Interests of Creditors. The Heber Reorganization Plan satisfies
section 1129(a)(7) of the Bankruptcy Code because the only holders of Impaired
Claims or Equity Interests (Classes 9 and 14) are insiders (as that term is
defined under section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code) and do not object to, and in
fact support, the Heber Reorganization Plan, notwithstanding section 1126(g) of
the Bankruptcy Code.

         O. Acceptance by Unimpaired Classes. Classes 1, 2H, 3H, 7 and 8 are
Unimpaired and are deemed to accept the Heber Reorganization Plan under section
1126(f) of the Bankruptcy Code. Classes 9 and 14 (collectively, the "Rejecting
Classes") are Impaired and shall receive no Distributions under the Heber
Reorganization Plan and therefore are deemed to reject the Heber Reorganization
Plan. Section 1129(a)(8) is therefore satisfied with respect to Claims and
Equity Interests other than those in the Rejecting Classes.

         P. Treatment of Administrative and Priority Claims. The treatment of
Allowed Administrative Expense Claims, Allowed Priority Tax Claims and Allowed
Non-Priority Tax Claims under Sections 2.2, 2.4 and 4.1, respectively, of the
Heber Reorganization Plan satisfies the applicable requirements of section
1129(a)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code.

         Q. Acceptance by Impaired Class. The Heber Reorganization Plan
satisfies section 1129(a)(10) of the Bankruptcy Code because the only Impaired
Class of Claims under the Heber Reorganization Plan is Class 9 (Intercompany
Claims), which is comprised solely of insiders (as that term is defined under
section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code) whose acceptances may not be counted for
purposes of section 1129(a)(10). As such, there are no Classes of Impaired
Claims whose acceptances are required for confirmation under section
1129(a)(10).

         R. Feasibility. The Disclosure Statement and the evidence proffered or
adduced at the Confirmation Hearing (i) are persuasive and credible, (ii) have
not been controverted by other evidence, and (iii) establish that confirmation
of the Heber Reorganization Plan is not likely to be followed by liquidation or
the need for further financial reorganization of the Reorganized Heber Debtors,
thus satisfying the requirements of section 1129(a)(11) of the Bankruptcy Code.

         S. Payment of Fees. The fees due and payable by the Heber Debtors to
the United States Trustee or the Clerk of this Court, as provided under 28
U.S.C. ss. 1930(a)(6), have been paid or shall be paid by Covanta pursuant to
Section 13.3 of the Heber Reorganization Plan. Thus, the requirements of section
1129(a)(12) of the Bankruptcy Code are satisfied.

         T. Continuation of Retiree Benefits. Section 1129(a)(13) is
inapplicable to the Heber Reorganization Plan because there are no employees or
retirees of the Heber Debtors and the Heber Debtors do not have any obligations
with respect to any retirement benefits subject to section 1129(a)(13). Thus,
the requirements imposed by section 1129(a)(13) of the Bankruptcy Code are
satisfied.

         U. Fair and Equitable; No Unfair Discrimination. Based upon the
evidence proffered, adduced or presented by the Heber Debtors at the
Confirmation Hearing, the Heber Reorganization Plan does not discriminate
unfairly and is fair and equitable with respect to Rejecting Classes, as
required by section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code. The holders of Claims or
Equity Interests in the Rejecting Classes are insiders that consent to
impairment under the Heber Reorganization Plan.

         V. Principal Purpose. No party in interest that is a governmental unit
has requested that the Court not confirm the Heber Reorganization Plan on the
grounds that the principal purpose of the Heber Reorganization Plan is the
avoidance of taxes or the avoidance of the application of section 5 of the
Securities Act of 1933, 15 U.S.C. ss. 77e, and the principal purpose of the
Heber Reorganization Plan is not such avoidance. Accordingly, the Heber
Reorganization Plan satisfies the requirements of section 1129(d) of the
Bankruptcy Code.

         W. Modifications to the Plan. To the extent the terms of this
Confirmation Order may be construed to constitute modifications to the Heber
Reorganization Plan and to the extent changes have been made to Heber
Reorganization Plan in light of the Buyers prevailing at the Auction and their
entry into the Purchase Agreement (collectively, the "Heber Reorganization Plan
Modifications"), such Heber Reorganization Plan Modifications do not materially
or adversely affect or change the treatment of any Claim against or Equity
Interest in any Heber Debtor. Accordingly, pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 3019, the
Heber Reorganization Plan Modifications do not require additional disclosure
under section 1125 of the Bankruptcy Code or the solicitation of acceptances or
rejections under section 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code. Disclosure of the Heber
Reorganization Plan Modifications on the record at the Confirmation Hearing
constitutes due and sufficient notice thereof under the circumstances of these
Heber Reorganization Cases. All references to the Heber Reorganization Plan in
this Confirmation Order shall be to the Heber Reorganization Plan as so
modified.

         X. Good Faith Participation. Based upon the record before the Court,
the Heber Debtors, their Debtor affiliates (collectively, the "Non-Heber
Debtors"), Buyers, the Agent Banks, the Bondholders Committee, the Committee and
their respective agents, counsel and financial advisors have acted in good faith
within the meaning of section 1125(e) of the Bankruptcy Code in compliance with
the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rules in connection with
all their respective activities relating to the offer, issuance, sale or
purchase of securities in connection with the Heber Reorganization Plan and are
entitled to the protections afforded by section 1125(e) of the Bankruptcy Code
and the exculpatory and injunctive provisions set forth in Article XI of the
Heber Reorganization Plan.

         Y. Retention of Jurisdiction. The Court may properly retain
jurisdiction over the matters set forth in Section 12.1 of the Heber
Reorganization Plan.

         Z. Satisfaction of Conditions to Confirmation. Upon entry of this
Confirmation Order, each of the conditions to confirmation contained in Section
10.1 of the Heber Reorganization Plan shall have been satisfied.

         AA. Auction and Sale of Geothermal Equity and Related Assets.

             (i) The evidence proffered, adduced or presented at the
Confirmation Hearing, the marketing and sales process culminating in the
Auction, and the Auction conducted before this Court, provide sufficient support
for a finding that the Purchase Agreement presents the best opportunity to
realize the highest value for the Geothermal Interests and related assets,
taking into account all relevant factors. The consideration provided by the
Buyers pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (a) is fair and reasonable, (b) is the
highest and best offer for the Geothermal Interests and related assets, and (c)
constitutes reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration under the
Bankruptcy Code and under the laws of the United States, any state, territory,
possession or the District of Columbia.

             (ii) The Purchase Agreement was not entered into for the purpose of
hindering, delaying or defrauding the Debtors' creditors under the Bankruptcy
Code or under the laws of the United States, any state, territory, possession,
or the District of Columbia.

             (iii) None of the Buyers is an "insider" of any of the Debtors, as
that term is defined in section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code. Neither the Debtors
nor the Buyers have engaged in any conduct that would cause or permit the
Purchase Agreement to be avoided under section 363(n) of the Bankruptcy Code.

             (iv) The Purchase Agreement and all of the transactions related
thereto were negotiated and have been and are undertaken by the Debtors, the
Buyers and their respective counsel and advisors at arm's length, without
collusion and in good faith within the meaning of section 363(m) of the
Bankruptcy Code. The Auction was conducted fairly and in good faith within the
meaning of section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code. As a result of the foregoing,
the Debtors and the Buyers are entitled to the protections of section 363(m) of
the Bankruptcy Code. Neither the Debtors nor the Buyers have engaged in any
conduct that would cause or permit the Purchase Agreement to be avoided under
section 363(n) of the Bankruptcy Code.

             (v) The consideration provided by the Buyers for the Geothermal
Interests is the highest or otherwise best offer received by the Debtors and is
fair and reasonable. A sale of the Geothermal Interests other than one free and
clear of Interests (defined below) would impact materially and adversely on the
Debtors' bankruptcy estates, would yield substantially less value for the
Debtors' estates, with less certainty than the available alternatives and thus
the alternatives would be of substantially less benefit to the estates of the
Debtors. In reaching this determination, the Court has taken into account both
the consideration to be realized directly by the Debtors and the indirect
benefits of such sale. Therefore, the sale contemplated by the Purchase
Agreement is in the best interests of the Debtors and their estates, creditors
and other parties in interest.

             (vi) The transfer of the Geothermal Debtor Equity to the Buyers
will be a legal, valid and effective transfer of the Geothermal Debtor Equity
and will vest the Buyers with all rights, title and interests of the Debtors to
the Geothermal Debtor Equity free and clear of all Interests (other than the
GECC Liens and Permitted Encumbrances and the liens on the Geothermal Debtor
Equity and assets of the Heber Debtors being granted by the Buyers on the
Effective Date to secure the financing of the Purchase Price), including, but
not limited to, those (A) that purport to give any party a right or option to
effect any forfeiture, modification, right of first refusal, or termination of
the Debtors' or the Buyers' interest in the Geothermal Debtor Equity, or any
similar rights, (B) relating to taxes arising under or out of, in connection
with, or in any way relating to the Geothermal Debtor Equity or any assets of
the Heber Debtors prior to the Closing and (C)(i) all mortgages, deeds of trust,
security interests, conditional sale or other title retention agreements,
pledges, liens, judgments, demands, encumbrances, rights of first refusal or
charges of any kind or nature, if any, including, but not limited to, any
restriction on the use, voting, transfer, receipt of income or other exercise of
any attributes of ownership and (ii) all debts arising in any way in connection
with any agreements, acts or failures to act, of any of the Debtors or any of
the Debtors' predecessors or affiliates claims (as that term is defined in the
Bankruptcy Code), obligations, liabilities, demands, guaranties, options,
rights, contractual or other commitments, restrictions, interests and matters of
any kind and nature, whether known or unknown, contingent or otherwise, whether
arising prior to or subsequent to the commencement of these cases pursuant to
chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, and whether imposed by agreement,
understanding, law, equity or otherwise, including, but not limited to claims,
otherwise arising under doctrines of successor liability (collectively,
"Interests"). For purposes of clarification "Interests" does not include the
GECC Liens and Permitted Encumbrances.

         BB. Assumption, Assignment and Rejection of Contracts.

             (i) The time period in which the Heber Debtors or the Non-Heber
Debtors can assume any unexpired lease of nonresidential real property to be
assumed and/or assigned pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code has not
expired.

             (ii) The Debtors have demonstrated that (a) assumption of the Heber
Debtor Contracts set forth on Exhibits B and C attached to the Heber
Reorganization Plan, (b) assumption and/or assignment of the Additional
Contracts set forth on Exhibit D attached to the Heber Reorganization Plan, and
(c) assignment of the O&M Contracts set forth on Exhibit E attached to the Heber
Reorganization Plan is in the best interests of the Debtors' Estates. All
contracts assumed or assigned pursuant to the Purchase Agreement shall be
referred to herein as the "Contracts."

             (iii) The Debtors have demonstrated that it is an exercise of their
sound business judgment to assume and/or assign the Contracts to the applicable
Buyers or their designee in connection with the consummation of the sale, and
the assumption, assignment and sale of the Contracts is in the best interests of
the Debtors, their estates and their creditors. The Contracts being assigned to
the Buyers are an integral part of the Geothermal Interests being purchased by
the Buyers and, accordingly, such assumption, assignment and sale of the
Contracts are reasonable, enhance the value of the Debtors' estates and do not
constitute unfair discrimination.

             (iv) Covanta has caused the cure, or has provided adequate
assurance of cure of, any default existing prior to the date hereof, within the
meaning of section 365(b)(1)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code (the "Adequate
Assurances") and has provided compensation, or has provided Adequate Assurance
of compensation, to all non-debtor parties to such Contracts for any of their
actual pecuniary losses resulting from any default arising prior to the date
hereof under any of such Contracts, within the meaning of section 365(b)(1)(B)
of the Bankruptcy Code, as set forth on Exhibits B, C, D or E attached to the
Heber Reorganization Plan or as set forth on Exhibit B hereto (collectively, the
"Cure Amounts"). The Buyers and the applicable Debtors have provided Adequate
Assurance of their future performance of and under the Contracts, within the
meaning of section 365(b)(1)(C) of the Bankruptcy Code.

             (v) As of the date hereof, each Contract is in full force and
effect and free from default (other than for specified Cure Amounts that have
not been paid as of the date hereof) and enforceable against the non-debtor
party thereto in accordance with its terms, including, but not limited to, the
SIGC/GE Project Documents (as defined in the Purchase Agreement). Any provision
of a Contract that purports to give rise to a default or other breach of such
Contract by reason of the commencement of any of the Debtors' chapter 11 cases
or the consummation of the Purchase Agreement shall be and is hereby void and
unenforceable.

             (vi) All requirements of section 365(b) and (c) of the Bankruptcy
Code and any other applicable law relating to the sale of the Geothermal
Interests and related Contracts have been satisfied. The counterparties to the
Contracts who did not object to the Heber Reorganization Plan or who have
withdrawn or otherwise resolved their objections are deemed to have consented to
the assumption and/or assignment of the Contracts.

                                     DECREES

             NOW THEREFORE IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED, DECREED AND
DETERMINED THAT:

         1. Confirmation. The Heber Reorganization Plan (as modified by any
modifications contained in this Confirmation Order) is confirmed under section
1129 of the Bankruptcy Code.

         2. Compliance with Applicable Provisions of Bankruptcy Code. The Heber
Reorganization Plan complies with the requirements of sections 1122, 1123 and
1129 of the Bankruptcy Code.

         3. Objections. The following objections were filed with respect to the
Heber Reorganization Plan: (i) Objection of the Imperial County Taxing Authority
("Imperial County Objection") (Docket No. 2691), (ii) Objection of Marley
Cooling Tower Company ("Marley Objection") (Docket No. 2680), (iii) Limited
Objection of General Electric Capital Corporation ("GECC Objection") (Docket No.
2677), and (iv) Objection of the Heber Geothermal Royalty Owners Group ("HGROG
Objection") (Docket No. 2724). The Imperial County Objection and the Marley
Objection were withdrawn by stipulation between the objecting parties and the
Debtors, which stipulations were filed with and approved by the Court at the
Confirmation Hearing. The HGROG Objection and the GECC Objection were resolved
as stated on the record at the Confirmation Hearing. To the extent that any
objections to confirmation of the Heber Reorganization Plan or the sale of the
Geothermal Debtor Interests have not been withdrawn or resolved by stipulation
prior to the entry of this Confirmation Order or are not resolved by the relief
granted herein or as stated on the record of the Confirmation Hearing, all such
objections are hereby overruled.

         4. Plan Classification Controlling. The classification of Claims and
Equity Interests for purposes of the distributions to be made under the Heber
Reorganization Plan shall be governed solely by the terms of the Heber
Reorganization Plan.

         5. Certain Effects of Confirmation; Discharge; Injunction; Exculpation;
Releases. All of the provisions of Sections 11.3, 11.5, 11.7, 11.8 and 11.0 of
the Heber Reorganization Plan are incorporated herein by reference as if set
forth herein in extenso and are hereby approved in their entirety.

         6. Settlements. All settlements in these cases are hereby approved as
good faith compromises and settlements pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 9019.

         7. Purchase Agreement. The terms and conditions of the Purchase
Agreement are approved, and the sale contemplated therein in exchange for the
Purchase Price is authorized under sections 105, 363(b), 1123(b)(4) of the
Bankruptcy Code and this Confirmation Order. The Purchase Agreement may be
modified, amended, or supplemented by agreement of the signatories thereto
without further action of the Court, provided that any such modification,
amendment, or supplement is not material and substantially conforms to and
effectuates the Purchase Agreement and this Confirmation Order. This Order and
the Purchase Agreement shall be binding in all respects upon all creditors
(whether known or unknown) of any Debtor, all non-debtor parties to the
Contracts, all successors and assigns of the Buyers, the Debtors and their
affiliates and subsidiaries, the Geothermal Interests, and any subsequent
trustees appointed in the Debtors' chapter 11 cases or upon a conversion to
chapter 7 under the Bankruptcy Code and shall not be subject to rejection.
Nothing contained in any chapter 11 plan confirmed in these bankruptcy cases or
the confirmation order confirming any such chapter 11 plan shall conflict with
or derogate from the provisions of the Purchase Agreement or this Order.

         8. Payment of Purchase Price. At Closing, the Buyers shall pay to
Sellers the remaining portion of the Purchase Price by wire transfer as directed
by Sellers in immediately available U.S. Dollar denominated funds in accordance
with the terms of the Purchase Agreement. The consideration provided by the
Buyers for the Geothermal Interests under the Purchase Agreement shall be deemed
to constitute reasonably equivalent value under the Bankruptcy Code and under
the laws of the United States, any state, territory or the District of Columbia.
The consideration provided by the Buyers for the Geothermal Interests is fair
and reasonable and may not be avoided under section 363(n) of the Bankruptcy
Code.

         9. Sale Free and Clear of Liens, Claims and Encumbrances. Except as
expressly permitted or otherwise specifically provided for in the Purchase
Agreement, the Heber Reorganization Plan or this Confirmation Order, pursuant to
sections 105(a) and 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Geothermal Debtor Equity
and Contracts shall be transferred to the Buyers and, as of the Effective Date,
shall be free and clear of (a) all Encumbrances (as defined in the Purchase
Agreement) other than the GECC Liens and the Permitted Encumbrances, and (b) all
Claims, liabilities, obligations, demands, guaranties, options, rights,
contractual commitments, restrictions, interests and matters of any kind and
nature, whether arising prior to or subsequent to the commencement of these
chapter 11 cases, and whether imposed by agreement, understanding, law, equity
or otherwise (including, without limitation, claims and encumbrances), and debts
arising under, relating to, or in connection with any acts of the Debtors (other
than the Heber Debtors) or their co-debtor obligors (i) that purport to give to
any party a right or option to effect any forfeiture, modification, right of
first refusal, or termination of any of the Sellers' or the Buyers' interests in
the Geothermal Debtor Equity or any asset of any Heber Debtor, or any similar
rights, or (ii) in respect of taxes, restrictions, rights of first refusal,
charges or interests of any kind or nature, if any, including, but not limited
to, any restriction on the use, voting, transfer, receipt of income or other
exercise of any attributes of ownership with all such interests, of any kind or
nature whatsoever to attach to the net proceeds of the sale in the order of
their priority, with same validity, force and effect which they now have as
against the Geothermal Debtor Equity, subject to any claims and defense the
Debtors may possess with respect thereto; provided that the GECC Liens shall
remain in place and the Buyers shall acquire the Geothermal Debtor Equity
subject to the GECC Liens and Permitted Encumbrances.

         10. Except for the GECC Liens and the Permitted Encumbrances, the
Buyers shall have no liability or responsibility for any liability or other
obligations of the Debtors arising under or related to the Geothermal Debtor
Equity, the Geothermal Interests or the Contracts. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, and except as otherwise specifically provided
herein and in the Purchase Agreement, to the extent allowed by law, the Buyers
and the Non-Heber Debtors shall not be liable for any claims against the Heber
Debtors or any of their predecessors or affiliates, and the Buyers and the
Non-Heber Debtors shall have no successor or vicarious liabilities of any kind
or character, including, but not limited to, any such liability that may be
imposed by statute (e.g. under the so-called bulk sales' laws) or any theory of
antitrust, environmental, successor or transferee liability, labor law, de facto
merger, or substantial continuity whether known or unknown as of the Closing,
now existing or hereafter arising, whether fixed or contingent, with respect to
the Heber Debtors or any obligations of the Heber Debtors arising prior to the
Closing, including, but not limited to, liabilities on account of taxes arising,
accruing or payable under, out of, in connection with, or in any way relating to
the Geothermal Interests prior to Closing (other than those obligations
expressly assumed by the Non-Heber Debtors pursuant to the Heber Reorganization
Plan; provided further that if GECC consents to the sale of the Equity Interests
in the SIGC Project Company pursuant to Section 2.1 of the Purchase Agreement
and as provided in the Heber Reorganization Plan, the GECC Liens shall be
limited to the Liens, Claims and encumbrances held by GECC against the SIGC
Project Company and any Liens, Claims and encumbrances held by GECC against
Amor, SIGC One Sub, SIGC Two Sub and the Non-Heber Debtors shall be deemed
released, terminated and extinguished.

         11. Under no circumstances shall the Buyer be deemed a successor of or
to the Debtors for any Interests against or in the Debtors, any of their assets
or the Geothermal Interests of any kind or nature whatsoever. The sale,
transfer, assignment and delivery of the Geothermal Debtor Equity shall not be
subject to any Interests, and Interests of any kind or nature whatsoever shall
remain and continue to be the obligations of the Debtors. All persons holding
Interests against or in the Debtors or the Geothermal Debtor Equity of any kind
or nature whatsoever (including, but not limited to, the Debtors and/or their
respective successors, including any trustee's thereof, creditors, employees,
unions, former employees and shareholders, administrative agencies, governmental
units, secretaries of state, federal, state and local officials, maintaining any
authority relating to any environmental, health and safety laws and their
respective successors or assigns) shall be, and are, forever barred, estopped
and permanently enjoined from asserting, prosecuting or otherwise pursuing such
Interests of any kind or nature whatsoever such Person or entity had, has, or
may have against or in the Debtors, their estates, officers, directors,
shareholders, or the Geothermal Debtor Equity. Following the Closing, no holder
of an Interest in the Buyers shall interfere with the Purchaser's title to or
use and enjoyment of the Geothermal Debtor Equity based on or related to such
Interest, or any action the Debtors may take in their chapter 11 cases.

         12. Valid and Effective Transfer. The transfer of the Geothermal Debtor
Equity to the Buyers pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and the Heber
Reorganization Plan constitutes a legal, valid and effective transfer of the
Geothermal Debtor Equity, and shall vest the Buyers with all right, title and
interest of the applicable Debtors in and to the Geothermal Debtor Equity, free
and clear of all Claims and Encumbrances (other than the GECC Liens and
Permitted Encumbrances) of any kind or nature whatsoever. The Buyers are good
faith purchasers of the Geothermal Debtor Equity, and entitled to all the
benefits and protections afforded by 11 U.S.C. ss. 363(n).

         13. As of the Closing Date, this Confirmation Order shall be construed
and shall constitute for any and all purposes a full and complete general
assignment, conveyance and transfer of the Geothermal Interests or a bill of
sale transferring good and marketable title in the Geothermal Interests to the
Buyers. Each and every federal, state, and local governmental agency or
department is hereby directed to accept any and all documents and instruments
necessary and appropriate to consummate the transactions contemplated by the
Purchase Agreement and the Heber Reorganization Plan.

         14. If any Person or entity that has filed financing statements,
mortgages, mechanics liens, lis pendens, or other documents or agreements
evidencing Interests in the Heber Debtors or the Geothermal Debtor Equity shall
not have delivered to the Debtors prior to the Closing, in proper form for
filing executed by the appropriate parties, termination statements, instruments
of satisfaction, release of all Interests which the Person or entity has with
respect to the Debtors or the Geothermal Debtor Equity, or otherwise, then (a)
the Debtors are authorized and directed to execute and file such statements,
instruments, releases and other documents on behalf of the Person or entity with
respect to the Geothermal Debtor Equity and (b) the Buyers are authorized to
file, register or otherwise record a certified copy of this Confirmation Order,
which, once filed, registered or otherwise recorded, shall constitute conclusive
evidence of the release of all Interests in the Geothermal Debtor Equity of any
kind or nature whatsoever.

         15. Assumption and Assignment of Contracts. Pursuant to sections
363(b), 363(f), 365(b) and 365(f) of the Bankruptcy Code, the applicable Debtors
are hereby authorized and empowered at Closing to (i) assume (and transfer) and,
as applicable, assign to the applicable Buyer or its designee each of the
Contracts identified on Exhibits B, C or D attached to the Heber Reorganization
Plan or Exhibit B hereto and (ii) assign to the applicable Buyer or its designee
each of the O&M Contracts identified on Exhibit E to the Heber Reorganization
Plan. The Heber Debtor Contracts identified on Exhibit F to the Heber
Reorganization Plan shall be transferred to the applicable Buyer or its designee
pursuant to the Purchase Agreement as part of the transfer of the Geothermal
Interests. To the extent that any counterparty to a contract or lease identified
on Exhibit B hereto has an objection to the assumption and/or assignment of such
contract or lease or to the Cure Amount related thereto, such counterparty shall
file an objection with this Court and serve such an objection upon Debtors'
counsel so as to be filed with the Court and received by Debtors' counsel no
later than ten (10) calendar days after the date of service of a notice of the
assumption and/or assignment of such contract or lease. Any counterparty that
fails to object within this 10-day period shall be deemed to consent to such
assumption and/or assignment and the Cure Amount identified on Exhibit B hereto.
The Debtors shall serve notice of the Cure Amounts and the assumption and/or
assignment of the contracts and leases identified on Exhibit B hereto no later
than two (2) business days after entry of this Confirmation Order.

         16. Cure Amounts. The Cure Amounts set forth on Exhibits B, C, D and E
attached to the Heber Reorganization Plan and Exhibit B hereto are hereby
authorized to be paid by Covanta and shall constitute findings of the Court and
shall be final and binding on parties to such Contracts (and their successors
and designees), except as provided by Section 9.3 of the Heber Reorganization
Plan, and shall not be subject to further dispute or audit based on performance
prior to the time of assumption and assumption and assignment, irrespective of
whether such assumed Contract contains an audit clause. If no objections with
respect to the Cure Amounts or assumption and/or assignment of the Contracts
identified on Exhibit B hereto have been filed and served in accordance with the
preceding paragraph, the Cure Amounts identified on Exhibit B hereto shall
constitute findings of the Court and shall be final and binding on parties to
such Contracts (and their successors and designees), except as provided by
Section 9.3 of the Heber Reorganization Plan, and shall not be subject to
further dispute or audit based on performance prior to the time of assumption
and assumption and assignment, irrespective of whether such assumed Contract.

         17. Transfer of Contracts. (a) the Contracts shall be transferred to,
and shall remain in full force and effect for the benefit of the Buyers in
accordance with their respective terms, notwithstanding any provision in such
Contract (including those of the type described in 11 U.S.C. ss. 365(b)(2) and
(f)) that prohibits, restricts, or conditions such assignment or transfer (b)
each Contract is an executory contract of the applicable Debtor under section
365 of the Bankruptcy Code; (c) the applicable Debtor may assume each Contract
in accordance with section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code; (d) the applicable Debtor
may assign each Contract in accordance with Sections 363 and 365 of the
Bankruptcy Code, and any provisions in any Contract that prohibit or condition
the assignment of such Contract or allow the party to such Contract to
terminate, recapture, impose any penalty, exercise any right of first refusal or
offer, condition renewal or extension, or modify any term or condition upon the
assignment of such Contract, constitute unenforceable anti-assignment provisions
which are void and of no force and effect; (e) any provision of such contracts
or lease that purports to give rise to a default or other breach by reason of
the commencement of the Debtors' chapter 11 cases or the consummation of the
Purchase Agreement shall be and is hereby void and unenforceable; (f) all other
requirements and conditions under sections 363 and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code
for the assumption by the applicable Debtor and the assignment to the Buyers of
each Contract have been satisfied and (g) upon Closing, in accordance with
sections 363 and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Buyers shall be fully and
irrevocably vested in all right, title and interest of each Contract. The
applicable Debtor may assign and transfer to Buyers each of such Debtor's right,
title and interest (including common law rights) to all of their respective
intangible property included in the Contracts.

         18. Adequate Assurance of Future Performance. Buyers have demonstrated
adequate assurance of future performance with respect to the Contracts and have
satisfied the requirements of the Bankruptcy Code, including, without
limitation, sections 365(b)(1) and (3) and 365(f)(2)(B) to the extent
applicable.

         19. There shall be no rent accelerations, assignment fees, increases or
any other fees charged to the Debtors or to the Buyers or their designee as a
result of the assumption, assignment and sale of the Contracts. The validity of
the assumption, assignment and sale to Buyers or their designee shall not be
affected by any dispute between any of the Debtors or their affiliates and
another party to a Contract regarding the payment of any amount, including any
cure amount under the Bankruptcy Code. The Contracts, upon assignment to Buyers
or their designee, shall and shall be deemed valid and binding, in full force
and effect in accordance with their terms.

         20. Pursuant to sections 105(a), 363 and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code,
all parties to the Contracts are forever barred and enjoined from raising or
asserting against the Debtors or the Buyers or their designee any assignment
fee, default, breach or claim or pecuniary loss, or condition to assignment
arising under the Purchase Agreement or arising by reason of the Closing under
the Purchase Agreement. Any party that may have had the right to consent to the
assignment of its Contract is deemed to have consented to such assignment for
purposes of section 365(e)(2)(A)(ii) of the Bankruptcy Code and otherwise if it
failed to object to the assumption and assignment or withdrew its objection or
was otherwise resolved.

         21. Each non-debtor party to a Contract is forever barred, estopped and
permanently enjoined from asserting against the Debtors or the Buyers, or the
property of either of them, any default existing as of the Closing. Provided,
however, that nothing contained herein shall be deemed to release the Buyers
from any defaults that they cause or continue post-Closing.

         22. Deemed Consent. Any counterparty to a Contract, license or permit
who (i) failed to file with the Court an objection to the assumption of such
Contract, license or permit prior to November 12, 2003 or (ii) withdrew such an
objection at or prior to the Confirmation Hearing, shall be deemed to consent to
such assumption and, upon the Effective Date, the Reorganized Heber Debtors
shall be entitled to enjoy all the rights and benefits under each such Contract,
license or permit without the necessity of obtaining such counterparty's written
consent to assumption or retention of such rights and benefits.

         23. General Authorizations. The Debtors, the Heber Debtors and the
Reorganized Heber Debtors, and their respective officers, employees, agents or
attorneys, as applicable, are authorized and empowered pursuant to sections 105
and 1142(b) of the Bankruptcy Code and any applicable state law to take any and
all actions reasonably necessary to implement the transactions contemplated by
the Heber Reorganization Plan or this Confirmation Order, without further order
of the Court, further corporate action or further action by (or vote of)
directors, partners or stockholders of the Debtors, Heber Debtors or Reorganized
Heber Debtors, including, without limitation, the (i) consummation of the sale
of the Geothermal Interests to the Buyers pursuant to and in accordance with the
terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement or the related transactions in
connection therewith; (ii) negotiation, execution and delivery of such other and
further documents as may be necessary or appropriate to implement and consummate
the Purchase Agreement or the Heber Reorganization Plan; (iii) performance of
their respective obligations under the Purchase Agreement, other related
agreements or the Heber Reorganization Plan; (iv) performance of all further
actions for the purpose of assembling, transferring, granting or conveying, or
reducing to possession, any and all of the Geothermal Debtor Equity, or as may
be necessary to ensure the performance of the obligations contemplated by the
Purchase Agreement, the Heber Reorganization Plan or this Confirmation Order,
(v) issuance, execution, delivery, filing or recording, as appropriate, the
documents evidencing and consummating the Purchase Agreement, other related
agreements or the Heber Plan of Reorganization; (vi) issuance, execution,
delivery, filing or recording, as appropriate, such other contracts,
instruments, releases, indentures, mortgages, deeds, bills of sale, assignments,
leases, or other agreements or documents in connection with the Purchase
Agreement or the Heber Reorganization Plan; (vii) performance of such other acts
and execution and delivery of such other documents, as are consistent with, and
necessary or appropriate to implement, effectuate and consummate the intent of
the parties in entering into the Purchase Agreement, the related agreements and
Heber Reorganization Plan, including making any non-material modifications,
amendments or corrections of those agreements that may be required so that they
more fully reflect such intent; (viii) payment of any state or local franchise
taxes owed by any of the Debtors to the extent such payment is reasonably
necessary to effectuate the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement
and the Heber Reorganization Plan; and (ix) payment of any amounts Covanta
agrees to pay to Constellation Energy, Inc. or its affiliates ("Constellation")
in consideration for Constellation's consent to the making of certain elections
under the Internal Revenue Code by Mammoth Pacific, L.P. The secretary of each
of the Debtors or Heber Debtors shall be, and hereby is, authorized to certify
or attest to any of the foregoing actions (but no such certification or
attestation shall be required to make any such action valid, binding, and
enforceable). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this
Confirmation Order shall constitute all approvals and consents, if any, required
by the applicable state corporation laws, and all other applicable business
corporation, trust, and other laws of the applicable governmental units with
respect to the implementation and consummation of the Purchase Agreement, the
Heber Reorganization Plan and this Confirmation Order and the transactions
contemplated thereby and hereby. Such actions are approved in all respects and
shall be deemed to have occurred and be effective on the Effective Date.

         24. Surrender of Instruments. As a condition to receiving any
Distribution under the Heber Reorganization Plan, each holder of an Allowed
Claim represented by a certificated instrument or note must surrender such
instrument or note held by it to the applicable Reorganized Heber Debtor or its
designee at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Effective Date, unless
such certificated instrument or note is being reinstated or being left
unimpaired under the Heber Reorganization Plan. Any entity that is so required
to surrender such instrument or note that fails to (i) surrender such instrument
or note or (ii) execute and deliver an affidavit of loss and/or indemnity
reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Reorganized Heber Debtor or furnish a
bond in form, substance and amount reasonably satisfactory to the applicable
Reorganized Heber Debtor before the first anniversary of the Effective Date,
shall be deemed to have forfeited all rights and Claims and may not participate
in any Distribution under the Heber Reorganization Plan in respect of such
Claim. Any other holder of an Allowed Claim who fails to take such action as
reasonably required by the Reorganized Heber Debtor or its designee to receive
its Distribution hereunder before the first anniversary of the Effective Date,
or such earlier time as otherwise provided for in the Heber Reorganization Plan,
may not participate in any Distribution under the Heber Reorganization Plan in
respect of such Claim. Any Distribution forfeited hereunder shall become
property of the Reorganized Heber Debtors.

         25. Binding Effect. Except as otherwise provided in section 1141(d)(3)
of the Bankruptcy Code, on and after the Confirmation Date, and subject to the
Effective Date, the provisions of the Heber Reorganization Plan shall bind all
present and former holders of a Claim against, or Equity Interest in, the
applicable Heber Debtor and its respective successors, affiliates and assigns,
whether or not the Claim or Equity Interest of such holder is Impaired under the
Heber Reorganization Plan and whether or not such holder has filed a Proof of
Claim or Equity Interest or accepted the Heber Reorganization Plan. The holders
of Liens satisfied, discharged and released under the Heber Reorganization Plan
shall execute any and all documentation reasonably requested by the Debtors or
the Reorganized Heber Debtors evidencing the satisfaction, discharge and release
of such Liens and such Liens shall be deemed satisfied, discharged and released
by operation of this Confirmation Order.

         26. This Confirmation Order shall be binding upon and shall govern the
acts of all entities, including without limitation all filing agents, filing
officers, title agents, title companies, recorders of mortgages, recorders of
deeds, registrars of deeds, administrative agencies, governmental departments,
secretaries of state, federal, state and local officials, and all other persons
and entities who may be required by operation of law, the duties of their
office, or contract, to accept, file, register or otherwise record or release
any documents or instruments, or who may be required to report or insure any
title or state of title in or to any of the Geothermal Debtor Equity.

         27. Corporate Existence and Revesting of Assets. Each of the Heber
Debtors shall, as a Reorganized Heber Debtor, continue to exist after the
Effective Date as a separate legal entity, with all powers of a corporation,
limited liability company or general or limited partnership, as the case may be,
under the laws of their respective states of incorporation or organization and
without prejudice to any right to alter or terminate such existence (whether by
merger or otherwise) under such applicable state law. The Reorganized Heber
Debtors shall be vested with their assets as provided in the Heber
Reorganization Plan under section 1141(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, free and clear
of all Liens, Claims and encumbrances and other Interests other than the GECC
Liens and Permitted Encumbrances. Each Reorganized Heber Debtor may operate its
business and may use, acquire and dispose of property free of any restrictions
of the Bankruptcy Code or the Bankruptcy Rules and in all respects as if there
were no pending cases under any chapter or provision of the Bankruptcy Code,
except as provided herein.

         28. No Post-Confirmation Amendment or Filing of Claims. A Claim may not
be filed or amended after the Confirmation Date without the prior authorization
of the Court and, even with such Court authorization may be amended by the
holder of such Claim solely to decrease, but not to increase, the amount or
priority of the Claim. Except as otherwise permitted herein or in the Heber
Reorganization Plan, a Claim filed or amended after the Confirmation Date shall
be deemed disallowed in full and expunged without any action by the Debtors,
Heber Debtors or the Reorganized Heber Debtors.

         29. Payment of Fees. As set forth in Section 13.3 of the Heber
Reorganization Plan, all fees payable pursuant to section 1930 of Title 28 of
the United States Code shall be paid by Covanta.

         30. Retention of Jurisdiction. Notwithstanding confirmation of the
Heber Reorganization Plan or occurrence of the Effective Date, this Court shall
retain such jurisdiction as is legally permissible.

         31. Modification of Heber Reorganization Plan. Subject to Section 13.4
of the Heber Reorganization Plan, after the entry of this Confirmation Order,
the Heber Debtors may, upon order of the Court, amend or modify the Heber
Reorganization Plan in accordance with section 1127(b) of the Bankruptcy Code,
or remedy any defect or omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Heber
Reorganization Plan or the Purchase Agreement, as applicable, without prejudice
to Buyers' rights under the Purchase Agreement, in such manner as may be
necessary to carry out the purpose and intent of the Heber Reorganization Plan.
A holder of an Allowed Claim or Allowed Equity Interest that has accepted or is
deemed to have accepted the Heber Reorganization Plan shall be deemed to have
accepted the Heber Reorganization Plan as modified if the proposed modification
does not materially and adversely change the treatment of the Claim or Equity
Interest of such holder.

         32. Severability. The Confirmation Order will constitute a judicial
interpretation that each term and provision of the Heber Reorganization Plan, as
it may have been altered or interpreted in accordance with the forgoing, is
valid and enforceable pursuant to its terms.

         33. Exemption from Securities Laws. The issuance or transfer of any
securities pursuant to the Heber Reorganization Plan shall be exempt from any
securities laws registration requirements to the fullest extent permitted by
section 1145(a)(1)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code and section (3)(a)(7) of the
Securities Act of 1933.

         34. Exemptions from Taxation. Pursuant to section 1146(c) of the
Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors (including the Heber Debtors) or the Reorganized
Heber Debtors shall not be subject to any document recording tax, stamp tax,
conveyance fee, intangibles or similar tax, mortgage tax, real estate transfer
tax, documentary transfer tax, mortgage recording tax or other similar tax or
governmental assessment, and the appropriate state and local governmental
officials or agents, including but not limited to the land title recording
officers of California, New York, New Jersey, and counties therein, and shall
be, and hereby are, ordered and directed to forego the collection of any such
tax or governmental assessment and to accept for filing and recordation any of
the foregoing instruments or other documents without the payment of any such tax
or governmental assessment.

         35. References to Heber Reorganization Plan Provisions. The failure
specifically to include or reference any particular provision of the Heber
Reorganization Plan in this Confirmation Order shall not diminish or impair the
effectiveness of such provision, it being the intent of the Court that the Heber
Reorganization Plan be confirmed in its entirety.

         36. Confirmation Order Controlling. If there is any direct conflict
between the Heber Reorganization Plan and this Confirmation Order, the terms of
this Confirmation Order shall control.

         37. Reversal. If any or all of the provisions of this Confirmation
Order are hereafter reversed, modified or vacated by subsequent order of this
Court or any other Court, such reversal, modification or vacatur shall not
affect the validity or enforceability of the acts or obligations incurred or
undertaken under or in connection with the Heber Reorganization Plan prior to
the Heber Debtors' receipt of written notice of such order. Notwithstanding any
such reversal, modification or vacatur of this Confirmation Order, any such act
or obligation incurred or undertaken pursuant to, and in reliance on, this
Confirmation Order prior to the effective date of such reversal, modification or
vacatur shall be governed in all respects by the provisions of this Confirmation
Order and the Heber Reorganization Plan and all related documents or any
amendments or modifications thereto.

         38. No Stay of Confirmation Order. Pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 3020(e),
this Confirmation Order shall not be stayed and shall be effective upon entry on
the docket of this Court.

         39. Applicable Non-Bankruptcy Law. To the extent provided in sections
1123(a) and 1142(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, the provisions of this Confirmation
Order, the Heber Reorganization Plan or any amendments or modifications thereto
shall apply and be enforceable notwithstanding any otherwise applicable
nonbankruptcy law.

         40. Post-Confirmation Notices. Covanta shall serve notice of entry of
this Confirmation Order pursuant to Bankruptcy Rules 2002(f)(7), 2002(k) and
3020(c) to all creditors, indenture trustees and equity security holders of the
Heber Debtors as of the Record Date (as defined in the Disclosure Statement) no
later than ten (10) Business Days after the Confirmation Date.

         41. Nothing contained in the Heber Reorganization Plan, this Order, or
otherwise, will be deemed to change, modify or affect the terms and provisions
of the protections granted to GECC (as defined therein) in paragraphs B, C,
5(c), 5(e) and 14 of that certain Agreed Final Order (I) Authorizing Use of Cash
Collateral of GECC Pursuant to 11 U.S.C. Section 363, and (II) Granting Adequate
Protection Pursuant to 11 U.S.C. Sections 363 and 364, dated as of May 13, 2002
(as it may have been amended) (Docket No. 287), the provisions of which are
incorporated herein.

         42. In the event that Buyers do not consummate the transaction
contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, the Debtors shall not be required to
hold another auction. The Debtors shall be authorized to approach those
Qualified Bidders (as defined in the Bidding Procedures Order) that submitted
offers at the Auction and attempt to secure the next highest or best bid as
determined by the Debtors in consultation with their creditor representatives
and the Debtors shall be authorized, but not required, to consummate a
transaction with such Successful Bidder (as defined in the Bidding Procedures
Order) (the "New Successful Bidder") pursuant to the terms of the purchase
agreement proposed by such New Successful Bidder (as amended to reflect such
amended bid, "New Purchase Agreement"), without prior notice or further Court
order. In such event, the terms of this Order shall apply to the New Successful
Bidder and the transaction contemplated by the New Purchase Agreement, with the
same force and effect as it would have applied to the transaction contemplated
by the Purchase Agreement. In the event that the New Successful Bidder does not
consummate the transaction contemplated by the New Purchase Agreement, the
Debtors shall be authorized to consummate a transaction with the Qualified
Bidder that submitted the next to highest or best offer in the same manner as
described with respect to the New Successful Bidder, so long as a Qualified
Bidder remains.
