Credit, provided that the Borrower (i) shall have given Eximbank ten (10)
Business Days prior


                                       6


written notice of the proposed amount and date of prepayment; (ii) shall have
paid in full all interest which has accrued to the date of prepayment on the

Eximbank under this Agreement, the Eximbank Note, the Eximbank Guarantee
Agreement or any other Financing Document as of the date of such prepayment; and
(iii) shall pay to Eximbank a prepayment premium. The prepayment premium shall
be equal to the amount by which the prepaid principal amount is less than the
sum of the present values, discounted from the scheduled payment dates, of (A)
the installments of principal being prepaid, plus (B) the amounts of interest
which otherwise would have accrued on such principal amounts to the scheduled
repayment dates. The discount rate used to calculate such present values shall
be that rate of interest specified in the weekly Federal Reserve Statistical
Release, H.15 (519) Selected Interest Rates, in the category "U.S. government

to the date of prepayment. "Maturity Date" shall mean the weighted average of
the periods between the date of prepayment and the scheduled repayment dates of
the installments of principal of the Eximbank Credit that are prepaid. All
prepayments shall be applied to the installments of principal of the Eximbank
Credit in the inverse order of their maturities.

      Section 3.06. Mandatory Prepayment. On the applicable dates set forth in

In addition, on the date of receipt of funds from any Buyout, the Borrower
shall, without demand or notice, make a prepayment to Eximbank in the amount of
the then outstanding principal amount of the Eximbank Credit, together with all
interest accrued thereon and all other amounts then payable to Eximbank by the
Borrower under any of the Financing Documents. In the case of any partial
payments, such prepayments shall be applied to the installments of principal of
the Eximbank Credit in the inverse order of their maturity. No prepayment
premium is payable in connection with a mandatory prepayment pursuant to this

further its obligation to repay all amounts disbursed under the Eximbank Credit,
with interest accrued thereon, it shall issue and deliver to Eximbank a
promissory note dated the Disbursement Date in the form of Annex A (together
with replacements and substitutions therefor, the "Eximbank Note"). The Eximbank
Note shall be valid and enforceable as to its principal amount at any time only
to the extent of the amount then


                                       7

the extent of the interest accrued thereon.

Borrower shall issue and deliver a new Eximbank Note of the same date, maturity
and denomination as the Eximbank Note so mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed;
provided that, in the case of any mutilated Eximbank, not such mutilate Eximbank
Note shall be returned to the Borrower, and, in the case of any lost, stolen or
destroyed Eximbank Note, the Borrower shall have first received such evidence of
loss, theft or destruction as shall reasonably be considered satisfactory to the
Borrower.

relating to employee training, secondment of employees and vehicle rentals), the

      results of the operations of the Borrower or the General Partner, as the
      case may be, for such fiscal year. Such financial statements have been

      accounting principles and practices consistently applied.


                                       23


      Since the date of such financial statements, no event, condition or
      circumstance (including without limitation Force Majeure as defined in
      Articles 13.1(a) and 13.1(b) of the BOT Agreement) has existed or has
      occurred which is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

      either individually or in the aggregate, is reasonably likely to have a
      Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Borrower nor the General Partner
      knows of any reasonable basis for the assertion against the Borrower or
      the General Partner of any liability or obligation of any nature
      whatsoever for such relevant period that is not fully reflected in the

      against or affecting the Borrower or any of its properties, revenues or
      assets or the Project or the Site which has had or is reasonably likely to
      have a Material Adverse Effect. The Borrower is not in default with

      Governmental Authority directing that any of the material transactions
      provided for in any of the Project Documents not be consummated as herein
      or therein provided. To the best of the Borrower's knowledge, there is no
      action, suit, investigation or proceeding by or before any court,
      arbitrator, administrative agency or other Governmental Authority
      (including without limitation any appeal by any Person of a Governmental
      Approval) pending or threatened against or affecting any party to any
      Project Document which is an Affiliate of the Borrower or any of their
      properties, revenues or assets, and the Borrower does not have knowledge
      of any such action, suit, investigation or proceeding pending or
      threatened against or affecting any other party to any Project Document or
      any of their properties, revenues or assets, in each case


                                       24


      described in this sentence which has had or is reasonably likely to have a

            (ii) There are no strikes, slowdowns or work stoppages by the
      Borrower's employees on-going or, to the knowledge of the Borrower,

whole, which, for the avoidance of doubt (i) shall not include any information
by way of projections, estimates or other expressions of view as to future
circumstances provided that such projections, estimates or other expressions of
view are expressed in good faith and on the basis of reasonable assumptions and
(ii) shall be qualified by any disclaimers with respect to such factual
information provided by the Borrower to Eximbank) heretofore or
contemporaneously furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower, Ormat or any other
Affiliate of the Borrower in writing to Eximbank (including without limitation
such factual information as contained in the information Memorandum and the
Project Documents), and all other such factual information (taken as a whole)
hereafter furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower, Ormat or any other
Affiliate of Ormat in writing to Eximbank will be, true and accurate in all
material respects on the date as of which such information is dated or certified
and not incomplete by omitting to state any fact necessary to make such
information (taken as a whole) not misleading in any material respect at such
time in light of the circumstances under which such information was provided.
There are in existence no documents or agreements which have not been disclosed
to Eximbank which are material in the context of the Project Documents or which
have the effect of varying any of the Project Documents.

      (j) Tax Returns and Payments. The Borrower has filed all tax returns
required by Applicable Law to be filed by it and has paid all income taxes
payable by it which have become due pursuant to such tax returns and all other
taxes and assessments payable by it which have become due, other than those not
yet delinquent and except for those contested in good faith and for which
adequate reserves have been established. The Borrower has paid, or has provided
adequate reserves (in the good faith judgment of the management of the Borrower)
for the payment of, all national, regional or local income taxes applicable for
all prior Fiscal Years and for the current Fiscal Year to the date hereof.

      (k) Governmental Approvals. All Governmental Approvals necessary under
Applicable Law in connection with (i) the due execution and delivery of, and
performance by the Borrower of its obligations and the exercise of its rights
under, the Project Documents in effect or required to be in effect as of each
date this representation is made or deemed made, (ii) the investment by the
Partners in the Borrower, (iii) the due execution, delivery and performance by
the General Partner on behalf of the Borrower of


                                       25


each of the Project Documents to which the Borrower is a party, (iv) the grant
by each of the Borrower, the Partners, and Ormat International of the Liens
created pursuant to the Security Documents and the Funding Agreement and the
validity, enforceability and perfection thereof and the exercise by Eximbank or
the Collateral Trustee of its rights and remedies thereunder and (v) the
construction and operation of the Project as contemplated by the Project
Documents, to be obtained by the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower are,
and to be obtained by any other Person (to the best knowledge of the Borrower)
are, set forth in Schedule 5.01(t). Each of the Governmental Approvals set forth
in Part A of Schedule 5.01(t) and each other Governmental Approval obtained by
the Borrower after the date of this Agreement but on or prior to the date this
representation is made, has duly obtained or made, is validly issued, is in full
force and effect, is not the object of a currently pending appeal, is held in
the name of the Person identified in Schedule 5.01(t) and is free from any
condition or requirement compliance with which is reasonably likely to have a
Material Adverse Effect or which the Borrower does not reasonably expect to be
able to satisfy. There is no proceeding (including without limitation any appeal
by any Person) pending or, to the best knowledge of the Borrower, threatened
which is reasonably likely to result in the rescission, termination, material
modification, suspension or determination of invalidity or lack of effectiveness
of any such Governmental Approval. The information set forth in each application
and other written material submitted by the Borrower to the applicable
Governmental Authority in connection with each such Governmental Approval is
accurate and complete in all material respects. The Governmental Approvals set
forth in Part B of Schedule 5.01(t) are required solely in connection with later
stages of construction and operation of the Project. The Borrower has no reason
to believe that any Governmental Approval that has not been obtained by the
Borrower, but which will be required in the future, will not be granted to it in
due course, on or prior to the date when required and free from any condition or
requirement compliance with which is reasonably likely to have a Material
Adverse Effect or which the Borrower does not reasonably expect to be able to
satisfy. The Project, if constructed in accordance with the Construction
Contract, the Supply Contract and the other Project Documents, will conform to
and comply with all covenants, conditions, restrictions and reservations in the
Governmental Approvals and the Project Documents applicable thereto and all
Applicable Laws. The Borrower has no reason to believe that the Collateral
Trustee will not be entitled, without undue expense or delay, to the benefit of
each Governmental Approval set forth on Schedule 5.01(t) upon the exercise of
remedies under the Security Documents Eximbank has received a true and complete
copy of each Governmental Approval heretofore obtain or made by the Borrower.

      (l) Compliance with Statutes, Etc.

            (i) Each of the Borrower and, with respect to its ownership interest
      in and management of the Borrower, the General Partner is in compliance
      with all


                                       26


      Applicable Laws in respect of the conduct of its business and the
      ownership of its property (including, without limitation, Applicable Laws
      relating to environmental standards and controls and resettlements and
      Applicable Laws relating to the maintenance of debt to equity ratios).

            (ii) Without limitation to the foregoing clause (i), the Borrower's
      business and the Project are being carried out in compliance with
      applicable Republic environmental guidelines.

      (m) Environmental Matters. To the best of the Borrower's knowledge,
neither the Site nor the Power Plant (nor any other property with respect to
which the Borrower has retained or assumed liability either contractually or by
operation of the law) has been affected by any Hazardous Material in a manner
that is reasonably likely to give rise to any material liability of the Borrower
under any Environmental Law or which has had or is reasonably likely to have an
Adverse Effect.

      (n) Patents, Licenses, Franchises and Formulas. The Borrower owns or has
the right to use all the patents, trademarks, permits, service marks, trade
names, copyrights, licenses, franchises and formulas, or rights with respect
thereto, and has obtained assignments of all leases and other rights of whatever
nature, necessary for the present and proposed conduct of its business and the
carrying out of the Project in the manner contemplated by the Project Documents,
without any known conflict with the fights of others which, or the failure to
obtain which, as the case may be, is reasonably likely to result in a Material
Adverse Effect.

      (o) Submission to Law and Jurisdiction. As of the Guarantee Operative
Date, the choice of governing law for each of the respective Project Documents
in effect or required to be in effect as of the Guarantee Operative Date will be
recognized in the courts of the Republic, and those courts will recognize and
give effect to any judgment in respect of such Project Document obtained by or
against the Borrower in the courts of the jurisdictions to which the Borrower
has submitted.

      (p) Status of the Loans and the Eximbank Credit. The Lender Financing
Secured Obligations constitute, and the Eximbank Secured Obligations will
constitute, direct, unconditional, and general obligations of the Borrower and
rank senior as to priority of payment and security to all Subordinated Secured
Obligations and Affiliated Reimbursement Obligations of the Borrower and not
less than pari passu as to priority of payment to all other Indebtedness of the
Borrower. Except as permitted by Section 8.01 of this Agreement, the Borrower
has not secured or agreed to secure any such other Indebtedness by any Lien upon
any of its present or future revenues, assets or properties or upon any general
or limited partnership interests in the Borrower.

      (q) Documents; Sufficiency of Project Documents.

            (i) Eximbank has received a complete copy of each Project Document
      in effect or required to be in effect as of each date this representation
      is made or deemed made (including all exhibits, schedules and disclosure
      letters referred to therein or delivered pursuant thereto, if any).

            (ii) To the best of the Borrower's knowledge, the services to be
      performed, the materials to be supplied and easements, licenses and other
      rights granted or to be granted to the Borrower pursuant to the terms of
      the Project Documents provide or will provide the Borrower with all rights
      and property interests required to enable the Borrower to obtain all
      services, materials or rights (including access) required for the design,

      attached as Schedule 6.01(u) to this Agreement. The Construction Budget
      accurately specifies all costs and expenses incurred and, to the best of
      the Borrower's knowledge, anticipated to be incurred, prior to the latest
      date on which the Maturity Date can be expected to occur to construct and
      finance the construction of the Project in the manner contemplated by the

      thereby as of their date, (y) are based on, and will be based on,
      reasonable assumptions as to all factual and legal matters material to the
      estimates therein (including interest rates and costs)


                                       29

use the Site for the duration of the Cooperation Period (as defined in the BOT
Agreement). No mortgage or financing statement or other instrument or
recordation covering all or any part of the property or assets of the Borrower
is on file in any recording office, except such as relate to Liens described in
paragraphs (a) and (b) of Section 8.01 hereof.

      (w) Transactions with Affiliates. The Borrower is not a party to any
contracts or agreements with, or any other commitments to, whether or not in the
ordinary course of business, any Affiliate, which are individually valued in
excess of $50,000 or in the aggregate valued in excess of $100,000 except for
the Lender Credit Agreement, the Construction Contract, the Supply Contract, the
Funding Agreement, the Mortgage, Assignment and Pledge Agreement, the Keystone
Agreement, the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, the O&M Support Undertaking

O&M Parameters (including those relating to employee training, vehicle rentals
and secondment of employees) or in the Funding Agreement.

      (x) No Additional Fees. Other than as expressly set forth in the Base Case
Forecast and the Construction Budget, the Borrower has not paid or become
obligated to pay any fee or commission to any broker, finder or intermediary for
or on account of arranging the financing of the transactions contemplated by the
Project Documents.

      (y) Regulation of Parties. None of the Borrower, its Affiliates nor any of
the Secured Parties or Eximbank is or will be, solely as a result of the
participation by such parties separately or as a group in the transactions
contemplated hereby or by any other Project Document, or as a result of the
ownership, use or operation of the Project, subject to regulation by any
Governmental Authority of the United States as a "public utility", an "electric
utility holding company", a "public utility holding company", a "holding
company", or an "electrical corporation" or a subsidiary or affiliate of any of
the foregoing under any Applicable Law of the United States (including, without
limitation, PUHCA and FPA) or by any Governmental Authority of the Republic as a
"public utility" under any Applicable Law of the Republic. So long as the owner
and operator of the Project is an "exempt wholesale generator" under Section 32
of PUHCA or a "foreign utility company" under Section 33 of PUHCA, none of the
Secured Parties will by reason of its or their ownership or operation of the
Project upon the exercise or remedies under the Security Documents be subject to
regulation by any Governmental Authority of the


                                       30


United States as a "public utility", an "electric utility", an "electric utility
holding company", a "holding company", or an "electric corporation" or a
subsidiary or affiliate of any of the foregoing under any Applicable Law of the

to or any liability under, any Plan nor since the date which is six years
immediately preceding the Guarantee Operative Date has the Borrower established,
sponsored, maintained, administered, contributed to, participated in, or had any
obligation to contribute to or liability under, any Plan. A Termination Event
has not occurred with respect to any Plan the occurrence of which has had or to
the Borrower's knowledge is reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse
Effect. Neither the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has failed to make a
required contribution or payment to a Multiemployer Plan when due, the failure
of which has had or to the Borrower's knowledge is reasonably likely to result
in a Material Adverse Effect. To the Borrower's knowledge, no accumulated
funding deficiency as defined in Section 412 of the Code has been incurred nor
has any funding waiver from the Internal Revenue Service been received or
requested with respect to any Pension Plan, nor has the Borrower or any ERISA
Affiliate failed to make any contribution or to pay any amount due and owing as
required by Section 412 of the Code, Section 302 of ERISA or the terms of any
Pension Plan, nor has there been any event requiring disclosure under Section
404l(c)(3)(C) or Section 4063 of ERISA with respect to any Pension Plan, the
event or occurrence of which has had or to the Borrower's knowledge is
reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect. To the Borrower's
knowledge, the Borrower and each ERISA Affiliate has met its minimum funding
requirements under ERISA and the Code with respect to the Plans and all benefit
liabilities under each Pension Plan are being funded in accordance with
applicable legal requirements and reasonable actuarial assumptions and methods
as set forth in ERISA and the Code. To the Borrower's knowledge, no material
proceeding, claim, lawsuit and/or investigation exists or, to the best of the
Borrower's knowledge, is threatened concerning any (i) Pension Plan, or (ii)
Multiemployer Plan, the occurrence of which has had or is reasonably likely to
result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Borrower nor, to the Borrower's
knowledge, any ERISA Affiliate has incurred any liability to the PBGC other than
for insurance premiums with respect to a Pension Plan, the payment of which is
not yet due.

      (bb) Investment Company Act. Neither the Borrower nor any of its
Affiliates is an "investment company" or a company "controlled" by an
"investment company", within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended.

of the Borrower, by the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement or
any other Financing Document or by any other act or thing which may be done by
or on behalf of Eximbank in connection with this Agreement or any other

Collateral Trustee to make, settle, compromise and liquidate any and all claims
thereunder, without prejudice to the exercise of any other rights and remedies
that the Collateral Trustee may have under any of the Financing Documents, or
under any Applicable Law.

period of such contest the Borrower sets aside on its books adequate reserves
with respect to the contested items);

      (b) Liens created pursuant to the Security Documents;

      (c) purchase-money Liens on any property acquired after the Operation Date

days after the acquisition


                                       48

necessary to protect its interest in the Site, any Plant, the Power Plant or the
Project including, without limitation, payment of amounts reasonably necessary
to release any such Lien, and in such event the Borrower shall reimburse
Eximbank or the Collateral Trustee, as the case may be, upon demand for the cost
thereof together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to (in the case
of Eximbank) the higher of (x) the New Borrowing Rate (as defined the Section

any of the Plants or from putting any of the Plants on a "care and maintenance
basis" during any Force Majeure (as defined in the BOT Agreement) not within the

The foregoing provisions constitute, among other things, a special arrangement
for service between the parties to this Agreement for the purposes of 28 U.S.C.
(section) 1608. Nothing herein shall affect the right of the Collateral Trustee
or Eximbank to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or to commence
legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against the Borrower in the Republic or
in any other jurisdiction.

      (b) The Borrower hereby irrevocably waives any objection which it may now
or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any of the aforesaid actions or
proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, the Eximbank
Note or any other Financing Document brought in the courts referred to in clause
(a) above and hereby further irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim
in any such court that any such action or proceeding brought in any such court
has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

      Section 10.03. Waiver of Sovereign Immunity. The Borrower acknowledges and
agrees that the activities contemplated by the provisions of this Agreement, the
Eximbank Note and the Financing Documents are commercial in nature rather than
governmental or public, and therefore acknowledges and agrees that it is not
entitled to any right of immunity on the grounds of sovereignty or otherwise
with respect to such activities or in any legal action or proceeding arising out
of or relating to this Agreement, the Eximbank Note or the other Financing
Documents. The Borrower, in respect of itself, its process agents, and its
properties and revenues, expressly and irrevocably waives any such right of
immunity which may now or hereafter exist (including any immunity from any legal
process, from the jurisdiction of any court or from any execution or attachment
in aid of execution prior to judgment or otherwise) or claim thereto which may
now or hereafter exist, and agrees not to assert any such right or claim in any
such action or proceeding, whether in the United States or otherwise.

                            SECTION 11. MISCELLANEOUS

      Section 11.01. Transportation. All items which are financed under the
Eximbank Credit and which are exported by ocean vessel must be transported from
the United States in vessels of U.S. Registry as required by 46 U.S.C.
(section)1241-1 (Public Resolution No. 17 of the 73rd Congress of the United
States, as amended), except to the extent that a waiver of this requirement is
obtained from the U.S. Maritime Administration ("MARAD"). If shipments are made
on non-U.S. vessels without a waiver or contrary to the provisions of the
waiver, the Items will not be eligible for financing under the Eximbank Credit
or for coverage under the Eximbank Guaranty Agreement.

      Section 11.02. Transportation Costs. The costs of ocean or air freight for
shipment of any item on a vessel or aircraft of non-U.S. registry pursuant to a
waiver from MARAD will constitute Foreign Cost associated with such Item if such
costs are included in the Contract Price of such Item. If such freight costs are
for shipment of an Item on a vessel or aircraft of U.S. registry, such costs
will constitute U.S. Content.

      Section 11.03. Insurance. The Borrower shall obtain insurance against
marine and transit hazards on all shipments of the Items in an amount not less
than the amount of the Disbursements made with respect to those shipments.
United States insurers shall be given a nondiscriminatory opportunity to bid for
such insurance business related to the Items. The cost of the premiums for such
insurance may be included in the U.S. content of the insured Item if the
insurance is placed in the United States with a United States company. In all
other cases, the cost of the premiums shall be included in the Foreign Cost
associated with the Item.

      Section 11.04. Disposition of Indebtedness. Eximbank may sell, transfer,
pledge, negotiate, grant participations in or otherwise dispose of all or any
part of the Borrower's indebtedness under this Agreement and the Eximbank Note
to any party, and any such party shall enjoy all the rights and privileges of
Eximbank under this Agreement and the Eximbank Note. The Borrower shall, at the
request of Eximbank, execute and deliver to Eximbank or to any party that
Eximbank may designate any such further instruments as may be necessary or
desirable to give full force and effect to the disposition by Eximbank.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Borrower may not
assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this
Agreement without the prior written consent of Eximbank.

      Section 11.05. Taxes. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay all amounts owing by
it to Eximbank under this Agreement, the Eximbank Guarantee Agreement, the
Eximbank Note or any other Financing Document free and clear of and without
deduction for any Taxes. The Borrower further agrees:



                                       70


      (i) that if it is prevented by operation of law from paying any Taxes,
then the interest rate or fees required to be paid under this Agreement, the
Eximbank Guarantee Agreement, the Eximbank Note or any other Financing Document
shall increase by the amount necessary to yield to Eximbank interest, fees or
expenses in the amounts provided for in this Agreement, the Eximbank Guarantee
Agreement, the Eximbank Note or such other Financing Document after provision
for the payment of all such Taxes;

      (ii) that it shall at the request of Eximbank execute and deliver to
Eximbank such further instruments as may be necessary or desirable to effect the
increased in the interest or fees as provided for in clause (i) immediately
above, including new Eximbank Notes to be issued in exchange for any Eximbank
Note previously issued;

      (iii) that it shall hold Eximbank harmless from and against any
liabilities with respect to any such Taxes (whether or not properly or legally
asserted);

      (iv) to provide Eximbank with the original or a certified copy of evidence
of the payment of any Taxes by the Borrower as Eximbank may reasonably request,
or, if no Taxes have been paid, to provide Eximbank, at Eximbank's request, with
a certificate from the appropriate taxing authority or an opinion of counsel
acceptable to Eximbank stating that no Taxes are payable.

      (v) In the event that it is necessary for Eximbank to cooperate with the
Borrower in order for the Borrower to fulfill its obligations under this Section
11.05, Eximbank shall cooperate to the extent necessary, provided Eximbank shall
incur no expense or other liability in connection therewith.

      (b) In the event Eximbank assigns or transfers its rights, title and
interest under this Agreement to a Person which is not a Person entitled to tax
exemptions on its assets, revenues and operations substantially similar to the
tax exemptions applicable to Eximbank, then the definite n of "Taxes" applicable
to such Person for purposes of this Agreement shall be the definition of
"Covered Taxes" set forth herein.

      Section 11.06. Disclaimer. Eximbank shall not be responsible in any way
for the performance of the Purchase Contracts, and no claim against the supplier
of any Item or any other person with respect to the performance of the Purchase
Contracts will affect the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement, the
Eximbank Note or any Financing Document.

      Section 11.07. Indemnities and Expenses. (a) The Borrower shall, whether
or not the transactions herein contemplated are consummated, pay the reasonable
fees and expenses of the Independent Enginier, the Insurance Consultant, Winston
& Strawn, special counsel to Eximbank, and Castillo Laman Tan Panteleon & San
Jose, special


                                       71


Philippine counsel to Eximbank and the law firms referred to in Sections 5.01(b)
and 5.02(b), and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Eximbank,
incurred in connection with (i) the preparation, printing, execution, delivery,
administration, registration (where appropriate) or enforcement of this
Agreement, the Eximbank Note, the Eximbank Guarantee Agreement and the other
Financing Documents and any other documents related thereto (including the Legal
Opinions); (ii) any amendment or modification to, preservation of rights under,
or waiver in connection with, the Financing Documents or any such other
document; and (iii) the registration (where appropriate) and the delivery of the
evidences of Indebtedness relating to the Eximbank Credit and the Disbursement
thereof.

      (b) The Borrower Shall, whether or not the transactions herein
contemplated are consummated, (i) pay and hold Eximbank harmless from and
against any and all present and future stamp and other similar taxes and
documentary or registration fees with respect to the matters referred to in the
foregoing clause (a) and save Eximbank harmless from and against any and all
liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay or omission (other than
to the extent attributable to Eximbank) to pay such taxes or fees; and (ii)
indemnify Eximbank and each of its respective officers, directors, employees,
representatives, attorneys and agents from and hold each of them harmless
against any and all liabilities incurred by any of them as a result of, or
arising out of, or in any way related to, or by reason of, any investigation,
litigation or other proceeding (whether or not Eximbank is a party thereto)
related to the entering into and/or performance of this Agreement, the Eximbank
Note, the Eximbank Guarantee Agreement or any other Project Document or the use
of the proceeds of the Eximbank Credit or the consummation of any transactions
contemplated herein or in any other Project Document, including, without
limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel selected by such
indemnified party incurred in connection with any such investigation, litigation
or other proceeding or in connection with enforcing the provisions of this
Section 11.07(b) (but excluding any such liabilities, obligations or losses, to
the extent incurred by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
the Person to be indemnified or its officers, directors, employees,
representatives, attorneys or agents, as the case may be as determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction). Without limitation to the foregoing provisions
of this paragraph, the indemnity provided hereunder shall cover any loss,
liability or expense reasonably incurred other than by reason of gross
negligence or wilful misconduct on behalf of Eximbank arising out of or in
connection with claims by third parties (including without limitation any Lender
or the Administrative Agent) to whom a copy of the Information Memorandum has
been distributed with the knowledge of the Borrower against Eximbank relating to
any alleged inaccuracy of the factual information (taken as a whole) which, for
the avoidance of doubt shall not include any information by way of projections,
estimates or other expressions of view as to future circumstances (provided that
such projections, estimates or other expressions of view are


                                       72


expressed in good faith and on the basis of assumptions which when made were
viewed by the Borrower in good faith to be reasonable) contained in, or any
alleged omission of information which will render such aforesaid factual
information (taken as a whole) inaccurate or misleading in a material respect
from, the Information Memorandum and the Project Documents. Eximbank shall (1)
use reasonable efforts to, upon its becoming aware of any event which may result
in the Borrower being required to perform any of its indemnity obligations under
this paragraph (b), promptly notify the Borrower (provided that failure to so
notify shall not mitigate the obligations of the Borrower hereunder), (2) upon
request from the Borrower consult with the Borrower regarding any step
(including any step which may mitigate the effect of such event) it proposes to
take in respect of such event and (3) consult with the Borrower before entering
into any settlement or compromise in relation to any such claims, actions or
suits.

      (c) Without limitation to the provisions of paragraph (b) above, the
Borrower agrees to defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless Eximbank and
each of its officers, directors, employees, representatives, attorneys and
agents from and hold each of them harmless against any and all liabilities
(including removal and remedial actions), obligation, losses, damages,
penalties, claims, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements
(including reasonable attorneys' and consultants' fees and disbursements)
imposed on or asserted against any such Persons directly or indirectly based on,
or arising or resulting from, (i) the actual or alleged presence of Hazardous
Materials on, under or at any of the Plants or any portion of the Site, (ii) any
Environmental Claim relating to the Borrower or the Project or arising out of
the use of any of the Plants or any portion of the Site, or (iii) the exercise
of Eximbank's rights under any of the provisions of this Section regardless of
when any such matters arise, but excluding any matter based solely on the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of Eximbank or its officers, directors,
employees, representatives, attorneys or agents, as the case may be. Eximbank
shall (1) use reasonable efforts to, upon its becoming aware of any event which
may result in the Borrower being required to perform any of its obligations
under this paragraph (c), promptly notify the Borrower (provided that failure to
so notify shall not mitigate the obligations of the Borrower hereunder), (2)
upon request from the Borrower consult with the Borrower regarding any step
(including any step which may mitigate the effect of such event) it proposes to
take in respect of such event and (3) consult with the Borrower before entering
into any settlement or compromise in relation to any such claims, actions or
suits.

      (d) To the extent that the undertaking in the preceding paragraphs of this
Section may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public
policy, the Borrower will contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to
pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of such
undertakings.



                                       73


      (e) All sums paid and costs incurred by Eximbank with respect to any
matter indemnified hereunder shall bear interest at the default rate applicable
to the Eximbank Credit from the date so paid or incurred until reimbursed by the
Borrower, and all such sums and costs shall be added to the debt and be secured
by the Security Documents and shall be immediately due and payable on demand.

      Section 11.08. Right of Setoff. In addition to any rights now or hereafter
granted under applicable law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any
such rights, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Eximbank is hereby
authorized at any time or from time to time, without presentment, demand,
protest or other notice of any kind to the Borrower or to any other Person, any
such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and
apply any and all deposits (general or special) and any other Indebtedness at
any time held or owing by Eximbank to or for the credit or the account of the
Borrower against and on account of the Eximbank Secured Obligations and
liabilities of the Borrower to Eximbank under this Agreement or under any of the
other Financing Documents, and all other claims of any nature or description
arising out of or connected with this Agreement or any other Financing Document,
irrespective of whether or not Eximbank shall have made any demand with respect
thereto.

      Section 11.09. Benefit of Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon
and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors and
assigns of the parties hereto, except that the Borrower may not assign or
transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written
consent of Eximbank.

      Section 11.10. No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the
part of Eximbank in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under
any other Financing Document and no course of dealing between the Borrower and
Eximbank shall impair any such right, power or privilege or operate as a waiver
thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or
privilege hereunder or under any other Financing Document preclude any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege
hereunder or thereunder. The rights, powers and remedies herein or in any other
Financing Document expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any
rights, powers or remedies which Eximbank would otherwise have. No notice to or
demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or
further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a
waiver of the rights of Eximbank to any other or further action in any
circumstances without notice or demand.

      Section 11.11. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement, the Eximbank
Note and any other Financing Document which is prohibited or unenforceable in
any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of
such prohibition or unenforceability but that shall not invalidate the remaining
provisions of this


                                       74


Agreement, the Eximbank Note or any Financing Document or affect such provision
in any other jurisdiction.

communications to be given or made under this Agreement or any other Financing
Document shall be in the English language.

      Section 11.13. Calculations; Computations. All financial calculations to
be made under, or for the purposes of, this Agreement shall be determined in
accordance with Philippine generally accepted accounting principles, applied on
a consistent basis and, except as otherwise required to conform to the
definitions contained in Schedule X or any other provisions of this Agreement,
shall be calculated from the then most recently issued quarterly financial
statements which the Borrower is obligated to furnish to Eximbank from time to
time, as provided hereunder; provided, however, that (a) if the relevant
quarterly financial statements should be in respect of the last quarter of a
Fiscal Year then, at the option of Eximbank, such calculations may instead be
made from the audited financial statements for the relevant Fiscal Year, and (b)
if there should occur any material adverse change in the financial condition or
results of operations of the Borrower after the end of the period covered by the
relevant financial statements, then such material adverse change shall also be
taken into account in calculating the relevant figures.

      Section 11.14. Survival. All indemnities set forth herein shall survive
the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Eximbank Note, the
execution, delivery and termination of the Eximbank Guarantee Agreement, and the
making and repayment of the Eximbank Credit.

      Section 11.15. Amendments. No term or provision of this Agreement may be
amended, changed, modified or waived except by an instrument in writing signed
by the party against whom such amendment, change, modification or waiver is
sought to be enforced.

      Section 11.16. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which

      Section 11.18. Judgment Currency. All payments of principal, interest,
fees or other amounts due to Eximbank under this Agreement, the Eximbank Note or
any other Financing Document shall be made in Dollars, regardless of any law,
rule, regulation or statute, whether now or hereafter in existence or in effect
in any jurisdiction, which affects or purports to affect such obligations. The
obligation of the Borrower in respect of any amount due under this Agreement,
the Eximbank Note or any other Financing Document, notwithstanding any payment
in any other currency (whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise), shall be
discharged only to the extent of the amount in Dollars that the Person entitled
to receive that payment may, in accordance with normal banking procedures,
purchase with the sum paid in that other currency (after any premium and costs
of exchange) on the Business Day immediately succeeding the day on which that
Person receives that payment. If the amount in Dollars that may be so purchased
for any reason falls short of the amount originally due, the Borrower shall pay
such additional amounts, in Dollars, to compensate for the shortfall. Any
obligation of the Borrower not discharged by that payment shall continue to be
due as a separate and


                                       77


independent obligation and shall accrue interest in accordance with Section 3.02
until discharged as provided herein.

      Section 11.19. Headings Descriptive. The headings of the several sections
and subsections of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall
not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this
Agreement.

      Section 11.20. Prior Agreements Superseded. This Agreement, the Eximbank
Guarantee Agreement, the Eximbank Note and the other Financing Documents to
which the Borrower is a party shall completely and fully supersede all prior
understandings or agreements, both written and oral, among the parties hereto
regarding the Eximbank Credit and the Eximbank Guarantee Agreement.

      Section 11.21. No Recourse. Except as provided in the last sentence of and
the proviso to the penultimate sentence of this Section 11.21, neither any
Partner, the Construction Supplier or the Construction Contractor nor their
respective shareholders or Affiliates (other than the Borrower), nor its or
their respective officers, directors, stockholders, controlling persons or
employees (each, a "Non-Recourse Party"), shall have any personal liability for
any amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder or under the Eximbank Note or any
other Project Document or for the performance of any covenant, agreement or
obligation of the Borrower, or for the breach of any representation, warranty or
covenant of the Borrower under this Agreement, the Eximbank Note or any other
Project Document, agreement, undertaking, certificate or other document
delivered by or on behalf of the Borrower in connection with this Agreement, and
therefore no judgment or recourse shall be sought or enforced against any
Non-Recourse Party for the payment or performance of the obligations of the
Borrower under any Project Document or any other such agreement, undertaking,
certificate or document executed by the Borrower. Except as provided in the last
sentence of this Section 11.21, it is expressly understood that all obligations
and liabilities of the Borrower under this Agreement, the Eximbank Note and the
other Project Documents to which the Borrower is a party and any other related
document, agreement or instrument executed by the Borrower are solely
obligations of the Borrower, provided, that such limitation of liability shall
not apply to a Non-Recourse Party if and to the extent that such Non-Recourse
Party commits fraud or misappropriation of earnings, revenues, profits or
proceeds from the Borrower or the Project. Notwithstanding anything herein to
the contrary, nothing herein shall limit, or be construed or deemed to limit,
the liability of any Non-Recourse Party under any Project Document to which such
Non-Recourse Party is in its individual capacity a party.

      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties to this Agreement have caused this
Agreement to be duly executed and delivered in the United States as of the date
set forth below.

                               SUBORDINATION TERMS

          The indebtedness evidenced by this instrument (herein called the
"Junior Debt") is subordinated and subject in right of payment to the prior
indefeasible payment in full in U.S. Dollars of all the Senior Debt, as defined
herein, of Ormat Leyte Co. Ltd., a limited partnership organized and existing
under the laws of the Republic of the Philippines (the "Borrower"). Each holder
of this instrument, by its acceptance hereof, agrees to and shall be bound by
all the provisions hereof.

          As used herein, the term "Senior Debt" shall mean, collectively, (i)
all Eximbank Secured Obligations (as defined in the Eximbank Credit Agreement
referred to below), including, without limitation, all indebtedness, obligations
and liabilities of the Borrower to the Export-Import Bank of the United States
("Eximbank") arising out of or in connection with the Credit Agreement, dated as
of May 13, 1996, by and between the Borrower and Eximbank (as the same may be
amended or supplemented from time to time, the "Eximbank Credit Agreement"),
including, without limitation, all principal, premium (if any), fees and
interest on all loans made to the Borrower under the Eximbank Credit Agreement
(whether or not contemplated as of the date hereof), and any and all renewals,
extensions and refinancings thereof, and any interest and guarantee fees, at the
rates specified in the Eximbank Credit Agreement, accruing subsequent to the
commencement of bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceedings with respect to
the Borrower, whether or not such interest is an allowable claim in any such
proceedings; and (ii) all indebtedness, obligations and liabilities of the
Borrower to Eximbank or any other person arising out of or in connection with
any other document or agreement evidencing or securing the Senior Secured
Obligations and the Senior Permitted Indebtedness (as such terms are defined in
the Eximbank Credit Agreement.)

          No payment on account of principal of, premium (if any) or interest on
the Junior Debt shall be made unless and until all the Senior Debt has been
indefeasibly paid in full in U.S. Dollars except to the extent provided in
Section 3.02(d)(ii) of the Disbursement Agreement and Sections 8.03, 8.18 and
8.19 of the Eximbank Credit Agreement.

          Upon (i) any acceleration of the principal amount due on the Junior
Debt or (ii) any payment or distribution of assets of the Borrower of any kind
or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to creditors upon any
dissolution or winding up or total or partial liquidation or reorganization of
the Borrower, whether voluntary or involuntary or upon bankruptcy, insolvency,
receivership or other proceedings, then and in any such event all principal,
premium (if any) and interest and all other amounts due or to become due upon
all the Senior Debt shall first be paid in full before any holder of any Junior
Debt shall be entitled to retain any assets so paid or distributed in respect of
the Junior Debt (for principal, premium (if any), interest or otherwise); and,
upon any such dissolution or winding up or liquidation or reorganization, any
payment or distribution of assets of the Borrower of any kind or character,
whether in cash, property or securities, to which any holder of any Junior Debt
would be entitled, but for the provisions hereof, shall be paid by the Borrower



or any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other
person making such payment or distribution, or by the holders of any Junior Debt
if received by them, directly to the Collateral Trustee (as defined in the
Eximbank Credit Agreement) for the benefit of the holders of the Senior Debt,
to the extent necessary to pay all the Senior Debt in full, after giving effect
to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of the Senior
Debt, before any payment or distribution is made to any holder of any of the
Junior Debt.

          The holder of this instrument hereby irrevocably authorizes and
empowers (without imposing any obligation on) the Collateral Trustee, under the
circumstances set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph, to demand, sue
for, collect and receive every such payment or distribution described therein
and give acquittance therefor, to file claims and proofs of claims in any
statutory or nonstatutory proceeding, to vote the full amount of the Junior Debt
evidenced by this instrument in its sole discretion in connection with any
resolution, arrangement, plan of reorganization, compromise, settlement or
extension and to take all such other action (including, without limitation, the
right to participate in any composition of creditors and the right to vote the
full amount of the junior Debt evidenced by this instrument at creditors'
meetings for the election of trustees, acceptances of plans and otherwise), in
the name of each holder of any of the Junior Debt evidenced by this instrument
or otherwise, as the Collateral Trustee may deem necessary or desirable for the
enforcement of the subordination provisions of this instrument. Without limiting
the foregoing, the holder of this instrument acknowledges, inter alia, that at
any time prior to the Secured Debt Termination Date, in order to preserve the
value of the Collateral (as defined in the Eximbank Credit Agreement) for the
benefit of holders of the Senior Debt or otherwise, the Collateral Trustee may,
and shall be fully authorized to, in the exercise of the rights granted to it
hereunder, vote the interests of the holders of the Junior Debt in favor of any
plan, restructuring or reorganization of the affairs of the Borrower in a manner
that protects the interests of unsecured creditors of the Borrower at the
expense of the interests of the holders of the Junior Debt. The holder of this
instrument shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Trustee all such further
instruments confirming the foregoing authorization, and all such powers of
attorney, proofs of claim, assignments of claim and other instruments, and shall
take all such other action as may be requested by the Collateral Trustee in
order to enable the Collateral Trustee to enforce all claims upon or in respect
of the Junior Debt evidenced by this instrument.

          No holder of this instrument shall, without the prior written consent
of the holders of the Senior Debt, have any right to accelerate the maturity
of, or institute any proceedings to enforce, any indebtedness evidenced by
this instrument unless and until the Senior Debt Termination Date (as defined in
the Eximbank Credit Agreement) shall have occurred.

          After the Senior Debt Termination Date shall have occurred, the holder
or holders of the Junior Debt shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders
of the Senior Debt to receive payments or distributions of cash, property or
securities of the Borrower applicable to the Senior Debt until the principal of,
premium (if any), interest on and all other amounts due or to become due with
respect to the Junior Debt shall be paid in full; and, for the purposes of such
subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders of the Senior Debt of
any cash, property or securities to which the holder or holders of the Junior
Debt would be entitled but for the provisions hereof, and no payment over
pursuant to these provisions to the holders of the Senior Debt by any holder of
the Junior Debt shall,


                                       -2-



as among the Borrower, its creditors (other than holders of the Senior Debt) and
the holder or holders of the Junior Debt, be deemed to be a payment by the
Borrower to or on account of the Senior Debt. No payments or distributions to
the holders of the Senior Debt which such holder or holders of the Junior Debt
shall be entitled to receive pursuant to such subrogation shall, as among the
Borrower, its creditors (other than holders of the Senior Debt) and the holder
or holders of the Junior Debt, be deemed to be a payment by the Borrower to or
on account of the Junior Debt.

          If any payment or distribution of assets of the Borrower of any kind
or character, whether in cash, property or securities, under the circumstances
described in the fourth paragraph hereof or in violation of Section 3.02(d)(ii)
of the Disbursement Agreement shall be received by any holder of the Junior Debt
before all Senior Debt is paid in full, such payment or distribution will be
held in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid over to, the Collateral
Trustee for application to the payment of the Senior Debt until all the Senior
Debt shall have been paid in full.

          Nothing contained in this instrument is intended to or shall impair as
among the Borrower, its creditors (other than the holders of the Senior Debt),
and the holders of the Junior Debt, the obligation of the Borrower, which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay to the holders of the Junior Debt, as and
when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with its terms, or to
affect the relative rights of the holders of the Junior Debt and creditors of
Borrower other than the holders of the Senior Debt.

          Each holder of this instrument by its acceptance hereof authorizes and
directs the Borrower on its behalf to take such further action as may be
necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination provided herein and
appoints the Borrower its attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.

          The subordination effected by these provisions, and the rights of the
holders of the Senior Debt, shall not be affected by (i) any amendment of, or
addition or supplement to, or refinancing under or of, the Eximbank Credit
Agreement or any of the other agreements or documents evidencing or securing any
Senior Debt, (ii) any exercise or nonexercise of any right, power or remedy
under or in respect of the Eximbank Credit Agreement or any of the other
agreements or documents evidencing or securing any Senior Debt, or (iii) any
waiver, consent, release, indulgence, extension, renewal, refinancing,
modification, delay or other action, inaction or omission, in respect of the
Eximbank Credit Agreement or any of the other agreements or documents evidencing
or securing any Senior Debt; whether or not any holder of the Junior Debt shall
have had notice or knowledge of any of the foregoing.

prevailed on the merits, provided further that the amount of any such
reimbursement obligations shall bear interest at the past due rate set forth in
Section 3.02(b) of the Eximbank Credit Agreement (i) if the Collateral Trustee
or the Borrower, as the case may be, shall make demand therefor within ten (10)
days after the incurrence of such expenses commencing on the date of incurrence
thereof or (ii) if the Collateral Trustee or the Borrower, as the case may be,
shall make demand therefor more than ten (10) days after the incurrence of such
expenses, commencing with the demand by the Collateral Trustee or the Borrower,
as the case may be, therefor.

     SECTION 2. Guaranty Absolute. (a) The liability of the Guarantor under this
Guaranty shall be absolute and unconditional, and this Guaranty shall remain in
full force and effect irrespective of, and shall not be affected by:

     (i)  any lack of validity or enforceability of the Funding Agreement, or
          any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;

     (ii) any amendment to, waiver of or consent to, departure from or failure
          to exercise any right, remedy, power or privilege under or in respect
          of, the Funding Agreement, including, without limitation, modification
          of times for payment;

     (iii) any exchange, release or nonperfection of any collateral, or any
          release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any
          other guaranty of or security for the performance of all or any part
          of the Guaranteed Obligations;

     (iv) any acceptance of any new or additional instrument, document,
          agreement, security or guaranty in connection with all or any part of
          the Guaranteed Obligations;

     (v)  any acceptance of partial payments on die Guaranteed Obligations;

     (vi) any reconveyance, abandonment, subordination, exchange, substitution,
          transfer, compoundment, compromise or enforcement of all or any part
          of the Guaranteed Obligations or any release or amendment or waiver of
          or consent to departure from any security or guaranty therefor, or any
          application of any such security or any direction of the order or
          manner of sale thereof (or any bid and purchase at any such sale), as
          the Borrower and the Collateral Trustee in their discretion may
          determine;


                                       -2-



     (vii) any waiver, release, termination or liquidation of all or any part of
          the Guaranteed Obligations which was not expressly agreed to in
          writing or consented to in writing by the Collateral Trustee and the
          Borrower or which was in connection with any matter described in
          clause (xii) below;

     (viii) any assignment of this Guaranty in whole or in part by the Borrower
          or the Collateral Trustee in accordance with Section 13 hereof;

     (ix) any cure by the Borrower, the Collateral Trustee or any Senior Secured
          Parties of any default by Ormat International, Inc. in the performance
          of its obligations under the Funding Agreement;

     (x)  any change in Applicable Laws (as defined in the Funding Agreement)
          relating to the validity or enforceability of this Guaranty;

     (xi) any of (a) the insolvency, bankruptcy (whether voluntary or
          involuntary), reorganization, dissolution or liquidation of, or
          similar event with respect to, Ormat International, Inc. or any of the
          Affiliated Funding Entities or (b) any change in ownership (whether
          direct or indirect) of Ormat International, Inc. or any of the
          Affiliated Funding Entities or the Borrower or (c) any sale or lease
          by the Borrower or any of the Affiliated Funding Entities of all or
          substantially all of their respective assets; and

     (xii) any other circumstances of a similar or different nature which might
          otherwise constitute a defense available to the Guarantor as a
          guarantor.

     (b) This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the
case may be, if at any time any payment to the Borrower or the Collateral
Trustee by Ormat International, Inc. or any Affiliated Funding Entity in respect
of any Guaranteed Obligation under the Funding Agreement or by the Guarantor
hereunder is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Borrower or the
Collateral Trustee upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, dissolution
or liquidation of Ormat International, Inc., any Affiliated Funding Entity or
otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein contained, in no event shall the Guarantor be
liable under this Guaranty (other than with respect to the foregoing sentence
and amounts payable pursuant to Sections l(b), 7 and 8 hereof) or in respect of
the Funding Agreement, assuming the Funding Agreement is enforceable in
accordance with its terms (except as limited by principles of equity), (i) to an
extent greater than Ormat International, Inc. or the Affiliated Funding
Entities, respectively, under the Funding Agreement in respect of the Guaranteed
Obligations, (ii) to the extent the Collateral


                                       -3-



Trustee and the Borrower have expressly agreed in writing or consented to in
writing any waiver, release, termination or liquidation of all or any part of
the Guaranteed Obligations (other than any such consent or agreement in
connection with any matter described in clause (xi) of Section 2(a) hereof), or
(iii) to the extent the Guaranteed Obligations are fully satisfied by full
payment thereof.

     SECTION 3. Waiver. The Guarantor hereby waives all promptness, presentment,
diligence, and notice with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or this
Guaranty (except for the notice contemplated in Section 1(a) hereof) and any
requirement that the Borrower or the Collateral Trustee exhaust any right, power
or remedy or take any action against or with respect to Ormat International,
Inc., or any other person or entity or any properly, and all suretyship defenses
of every nature under the law of the State of New York and other states. The
Guarantor agrees that all payments under this Guaranty shall be made free and
clear of all set-offs and counterclaims and the Guarantor hereby waives any
right to withhold or deduct any amounts from payment under this Guaranty on the
basis of any rights of set-off or any counterclaim.

     SECTION 4. Independent Obligations. The obligations of the Guarantor
hereunder are independent of the obligations of any other guarantor or any other
person or entity, and the Borrower and the Collateral Trustee may enforce any of
their respective rights hereunder independently of any other right or remedy
that the Borrower and the Collateral Trustee may at any time hold with respect
to the Guaranteed Obligations or any security or offer guaranty therefor.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower or the Collateral
Trustee may bring a separate action against the Guarantor without first
proceeding against Ormat International, Inc., any other guarantor or any other
person or entity, or any security held by the Borrower or the Collateral
Trustee, and regardless of whether Ormat International, Inc. or any other
guarantor or any other person or entity is joined in any such action. The rights
of the Borrower and the Collateral Trustee hereunder shall not be exhausted by
any action taken by the Borrower or the Collateral Trustee with respect to this
Guaranty until all of the Guaranteed Obligations have been fully paid.

     SECTION 5. Reasonableness and Effect of Waiver. The Guarantor warrants and
agrees that each of the waivers set forth in this Guaranty is made with full
knowledge of its significance and consequences and that, under the
circumstances, such waivers are reasonable and not contrary to public policy or
law.

     SECTION 6. Arrangements Regarding Payments. All payments to be made by the
Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be made in lawful money of the United States
of America, directly to the Collateral Trustee, into the Dollar Project Control
Account (which, as of the date hereof, is account no. ________________
(reference: __________) at The Chase Manhattan Bank, N.A.), or to such other
account as the Collateral Trustee


                                      -4-



may from time to time specify as the Dollar Project Control Account in writing
to the Guarantor, and shall be accompanied by a notice from the Guarantor
stating that such payments are made under this Guaranty.

     SECTION 7. Taxes. The Guarantor covenants and agrees that (a) all payments
by the Guarantor under or in respect of this Guaranty and the Funding Agreement
shall be made free and clear of and without reduction by reason of any present
or future income, stamp and other taxes or charges whatsoever imposed, withheld,
levied or collected by Israel or any political subdivision or taxing authority
thereof on or in respect of this Guaranty or the Funding Agreement or the
registration, notarization or other formalization thereof or any payments in
respect thereof (collectively, "Taxes"), all of which shall be paid by the
Guarantor for its own account, prior to the date on which penalties attach
thereto; (b) the Guarantor shall indemnify the Borrower and the Collateral
Trustee against, and reimburse the Borrower and the Collateral Trustee on demand
for, any Taxes with respect to any amount payable by the Guarantor hereunder and
any interest or penalties thereon; (c) in the event that the Guarantor is
required by applicable law, decree or regulation to deduct or withhold any Taxes
from any amounts payable on, under or in respect of this Guaranty or the Funding
Agreement, the Guarantor shall pay, on demand of the Borrower or the Collateral
Trustee, such additional amount or amounts as may be required, after such
deduction or withholding, to enable the Borrower and the Collateral Trustee to
receive from the Guarantor an amount equal to the full amount stated to be
payable hereunder; (d) the Guarantor shall furnish to the Borrower and the
Collateral Trustee satisfactory tax receipts in respect of any payment of Taxes
within thirty (30) days after the respective due dates therefor; and (e) the
covenants and agreements of the Guarantor under this Section 7 shall survive the
termination of the Funding Agreement and this Guaranty.

     SECTION 8. Judgment. If for the purpose of obtaining a judgment in any
court with respect to any obligation of the Guarantor's hereunder, it shall
become necessary for the Borrower or the Collateral Trustee to convert into any
other currency any amount in U.S. Dollars due hereunder, then such conversion
shall be made at the buying spot rate at exchange for freely transferable U.S.
Dollars at the close of business on the date the Guarantor shall make payment to
the Borrower or the Collateral Trustee in satisfaction of such judgment, at the
place where such payment is made. If pursuant to any such judgment, conversion
shall be made on a date other than the date payment is made, and there shall
occur a change between such rate of exchange prevailing on such conversion date
and that prevailing on the date of payment, then the Guarantor agrees to pay
such additional amounts, if any, as may be necessary to ensure that the amount
paid is the amount in such other currency that, when converted at the current
rate of exchange on the date of payment, is the amount then due under this
Guaranty in U.S. Dollars. Any amount due from the Guarantor under this Section 8
shall be due as a separate debt and is not to


                                       -5-



be affected by or merged into any judgment being obtained for any other sums due
under or in respect of this Guaranty.

     SECTION 9. Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Immunities. (a) THE GUARANTOR
HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT
SITTING IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, UNITED STATE OF AMERICA, IN ANY ACTION OR
PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY, AND THE GUARANTOR HEREBY
IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY
BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH STATE OR FEDERAL COURT. THE GUARANTOR HEREBY
IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT IT MAY EFFECTIVELY DO SO, THE DEFENSE
OF ANY INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING.

     (b) The Guarantor hereby irrevocably appoints CT Corporation System (the
"Process Agent"), with an office on the date hereof at 1633 Broadway, New York,
New York 10019, as its agent to receive on behalf of the Guarantor and its
property, service of copies of the summons and complaint and any other process
that may be served in any such action or proceeding. Such service may be made by
mailing or delivering a copy of such process to the Guarantor in care of the
Process Agent at the Process Agent's above address, and the Guarantor hereby
irrevocably authorizes and directs the Process Agent to accept such service on
its behalf. As an alternative method of service, the Guarantor hereby
irrevocably consents to the service of any and all process in any such action or
proceeding by the mailing of copies of such process to the Guarantor at its
address specified in Section 11 hereof. The Guarantor agrees that a final
judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be
enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner
permitted by law.

     (c) Nothing in this Section 9 shall affect the right of the Borrower or the
Collateral Trustee to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law
or affect the right of the Borrower or the Collateral Trustee to bring any
action or proceeding against the Guarantor or its property in the courts of any
other jurisdiction.

     (d) To the extent that the Guarantor has or hereafter may acquire any
immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether
through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of
execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, the
Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations
under this Guaranty.

     SECTION 10. Amendments. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this
Guaranty nor consent to any departure by the Guarantor therefrom shall in any
event be


                                      -6-



effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Borrower and the
Collateral Trustee, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in
the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

     SECTION 11. Addresses for Notices. All notices and other communications to
any party hereto provided for hereunder shall be in writing and mailed or
communicated by facsimile or delivered to such party at the address indicated on
the signature pages affixed hereto, or as to any such person at such other
address as shall be designated by such person in a written notice to the other
persons referred to above. All such notices and other communications shall, when
mailed or communicated by facsimile transmission, respectively, be effective on
the tenth Business Day after being deposited in the mail addressed as aforesaid
or when such facsimile transmission is confirmed. With respect to any notice to
the Guarantor hereunder, a copy shall also be sent in the manner specified above
to Robert E. Giles, Perkins Coie, 1201 Third Avenue, 40th floor, Seattle, WA
98101-3099, facsimile no. (206) 583-8500.

     SECTION 12. No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of the Borrower or
the Collateral Trustee to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right
hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right operate as a waiver thereof
or of any other right, power or remedy hereunder or under any related documents
or instruments. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and are not
exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

     SECTION 13. Continuing Guaranty; Assignments. This Guaranty is a continuing
guaranty and shall (a) remain in full force and effect with respect to the
Guarantor's guaranty of the performance of the Guaranteed Obligations until
expiration as provided in Section 20, (b) be binding upon the Guarantor and its
successors and (c) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Borrower,
the Collateral Trustee and their successors, transferees and assigns. The
Guarantor shall have no right, power or authority to delegate all or any of its
obligations hereunder. The Guarantor hereby expressly agrees that each of the
Borrower and the Collateral Trustee may assign all or any of its rights
hereunder without the Guarantor's approval to any person or entity to which the
Collateral Trustee has assigned its rights under the Funding Agreement pursuant
to the conditions set forth in the Funding Agreement. The Collateral Trustee or
any such assignee shall notify the Guarantor in writing of each such assignment
made pursuant to this Section 13. In the event of any such assignment,
references herein to "the Collateral Trustee" shall be deemed to include
references to the relevant assignee.

     SECTION 14. Notifications, Clearances, Etc. The Guarantor hereby agrees
that it will use its best efforts to obtain any and all appropriate
notifications to and clearances from, or licenses to the Israeli Government as
may be required at such time as the Guarantor takes action to perform the
Guaranteed Obligations pursuant to this Guaranty, it


                                      -7-



being understood that under the current law of Israel, no notification to,
clearance from or license of the Israeli Government is required with respect to
payment in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations. Further, if the Guarantor
shall be unsuccessful in obtaining the appropriate notifications, clearances or
licenses to perform the Guaranteed Obligations, it shall, to the extent
permitted by applicable law, pay money to cause the performance of the
Guaranteed Obligations.

     SECTION 15. Governing Law. THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND
CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, THE
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICT OF LAWS RULES THEREOF.

     SECTION 16. Counterparts. This Guaranty may be executed in any number of
counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same
instrument, and any of the signatories hereto may execute this Guaranty by
signing such counterpart.

     SECTION 17. Severability. If any provision or provisions of this Guaranty
shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality or
enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof shall not in any way be
affected or impaired thereby.

     SECTION 18. Headings. The section headings appearing herein are included
solely for convenience of reference and are not intended to affect the
interpretation of any provision of this Guaranty.

     SECTION 19. Complete Agreement. This Guaranty represents the final and
complete agreement of the parties hereto, and all prior negotiations,
representations, understandings and writings and statements of any nature are
hereby replaced in their entirety by the terms of this Guaranty.
