Item 1.01.
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On November 22, 2016, Ormat Nevada Inc. ("Ormat Nevada"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ormat Technologies, Inc. (the "Company"), entered into an Agreement for Purchase of Membership Interests (the "Purchase Agreement") with Northleaf Geothermal Holdings, LLC ("Northleaf"). Under the Purchase Agreement, Ormat Nevada sold to Northleaf 36.75% of the membership interests in ORNI 37 LLC ("ORNI 37"), a Delaware limited liability company that is the owner of the Don A. Campbell 2 geothermal power plant. Also under the Purchase Agreement, immediately upon consummation of the sale and purchase thereunder, each of Ormat Nevada and Northleaf contributed their respective membership interests in ORNI 37 to ORPD LLC, a previously formed Delaware limited liability company that is jointly owned by Ormat Nevada (63.25%) and Northleaf (36.75%).
ORNI 37's Don A. Campbell 2 power plant in Nevada is an approximately 20 MW geothermal power generating facility. Power and ancillary attributes and services are sold to Southern California Public Power Authority under a 20 year power purchase agreement that commenced September 17, 2015. Ormat Nevada will continue to provide operation and maintenance services for the facility.
The purchase price paid by Northleaf and received by Ormat Nevada upon closing of the sale of the ORNI 37 membership interests under the Purchase Agreement was US$44,234,000.
The Purchase Agreement contains representations and warranties by both parties, certain other agreements, and certain indemnity obligations from the seller to the buyer, in each case that are customary for agreements and transactions of similar nature. In addition, the Purchase Agreement provides that ORPD LLC is an express third-party beneficiary of the Purchase Agreement, and can enforce the provisions thereof in respect of the membership interests contributed by Ormat Nevada, as well as Northleaf, to ORPD.
Under ORPD's limited liability company agreement (the "ORPD LLC Agreement"), 100% of the cash that ORPD will receive from ORNI 37 and all other attributes of ownership will be distributed or allocated, subject to reasonable reserves to be determined by Ormat Nevada, according to the agreed allocations set forth in the ORPD LLC Agreement.
