The PPA was signed August 18, 2006, but permitting delays have prevented substantial progress on the project site and on transmission until late this year and had a significant impact on the development plan and the economics of the project. As part of the termination arrangements, Ormat will pay NV Energy a termination fee of approximately $1.7 million that will be recorded as an expense in the fourth quarter 2011 financial statements. The Company will continue work on the project.
