The Depositary shall not change the name or account number of any Collateral Account without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent. Section 2.5 Jurisdiction of Depositary. The Issuer, each Guarantor and the Depositary agree that, for purposes of the New York UCC, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any other agreement relating to the establishment and operation of the Collateral Accounts, the jurisdiction of the Depositary (in its capacity as the Securities Intermediary) is the State of New York and the laws of the State of New York govern the establishment and operation of the Collateral Accounts. Section 2.6 Degree of Care; Liens.

The Depositary is not party to and shall not execute and deliver, or otherwise become bound by, any agreement under which the Depositary agrees with any Person other than the Collateral Agent to comply with entitlement orders or instructions originated by such Person relating to any of the Collateral Accounts or the security entitlements that are the subject of this Depositary Agreement. The Depositary shall not grant any lien, pledge or security interest in any financial asset that is the subject of any security entitlement that is the subject of this Depositary Agreement. Section 2.7 Subordination of Lien; Waiver of Set-Off. In the event that the Depositary has or subsequently obtains by agreement, operation of law or otherwise a Lien in any Account, any security entitlement carried therein or credited thereto or any financial asset that is the subject of any such security entitlement, the Depositary agrees that such Lien shall (except to the extent provided in the last sentence of this Section 2.7) be subordinate to Lien of the Collateral Agent.

Depositary hereby represents that, except for the claims and interests of the Collateral Agent, the Company and the Guarantors in each of the Collateral Accounts, the Depositary, (a) as of the Closing Date, has no knowledge of, and has received no notice of, and (b) as of each date on which any Collateral Account is established pursuant to this Depositary Agreement, has received no notice of, any claim to, or interest in, any Collateral Account or in any security entitlement or financial asset carried therein or credited thereto. If any Person asserts any lien (including any writ, garnishment, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process) against any Collateral Account or in any security entitlement or financial asset carried therein or credited thereto, the Depositary will promptly notify the Collateral Agent and Issuer thereof. Section 2.10 Rights and Powers of the Collateral Agent.

If the Ormesa Loan Repayment Account is funded with an Ormesa Repayment Letter of Credit, Ormat Nevada or certain of the Issuer's Affiliates (other than Subsidiaries of the Issuer) will be permitted to replace the Ormesa Loan Repayment Letter of Credit with cash or another Ormesa Repayment Letter of Credit. -21-  (c) In consideration of Ormesa's agreement to, on the Ormesa Support Date, become a Guarantor of the Senior Secured Notes and to provide, on the Ormesa Support Date, Liens on its properties in favor of the Collateral Agent, the Depositary shall on each Ormesa Payment Date, disburse the monies on deposit in the Ormesa Loan Repayment Account or draw upon the Ormesa Repayment Letter of Credit to pay the principal, premium and interest on the Ormesa Credit Agreement upon receipt by the Depositary, on or prior to the date two Business Days prior to the applicable Ormesa Payment Date, of a Withdrawal Certificate dated not more than ten days prior to such Ormesa Payment Date, specifying the amount of principal, premium and interest to be paid with respect to the Ormesa Credit Agreement and providing payment instructions directing the Depositary to pay all such amounts directly to the lender under the Ormesa Credit Agreement. The Issuer may also use amounts in the Ormesa Loan Repayment Account to repay all amounts due and payable under the Ormesa Credit Agreement if an Event of Loss or Event of Eminent Domain occurs with respect to Ormesa. Upon receipt of notice by the Depositary that an Event of Loss or an Event of Eminent Domain has occurred with respect to Ormesa, then, provided that the Issuer and Ormesa shall have caused the irrevocable assignment of insurance policies with respect to Ormesa and all of their respective rights under such insurance policies and proceeds therefrom to the Collateral Agent and such policies shall provide for payment in an amount at least equal to the Ormesa Repayment Requirement at such time; within five Business Days of receipt of notice of such Event of Loss or Event of Eminent Domain, the Depositary shall make a drawing on the Ormesa Repayment Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the Ormesa Repayment Requirement at such time minus monies on deposit in the Ormesa Loan Repayment Account and amounts in any of the other accounts under the Ormesa Credit Agreement other than the "debt service reserve account" that are available for the payment of principal, premium and interest under the Ormesa Credit Agreement. The Depositary shall promptly utilize amounts on deposit in the Ormesa Loan Repayment Account to repay all amounts then due and payable under the Ormesa Credit Agreement. Any insurance proceeds received by the Collateral Agent with respect to an Event of Loss or Event of Eminent Domain with respect to Ormesa shall be deposited in the Loss Proceeds Accounts. Amounts in the Ormesa Loan Repayment Account shall not be used to pay the principal, interest or premium, if any, on any of the Issuer's other Senior Secured Obligations or any of the Issuer's other Indebtedness. (d) The Issuer shall notify the Depositary within five days of the occurrence of an Event of Loss or an Event of Eminent Domain. (e) Once the Ormesa Repayment Requirement is reached, net interest, if any, earned on amounts deposited in the Ormesa Loan Repayment Account shall be transferred to Ormat Nevada. Amounts in the Ormesa Loan Repayment Account, when added to the amount available to be drawn under the Ormesa Repayment Letter of Credit, in excess of the Ormesa Repayment Requirement shall be transferred to Ormat Nevada. On the Ormesa Support Date (once Ormesa has complied with all of its obligations under the Financing Documents) all amounts on deposit in the Ormesa Loan Repayment Account shall be transferred to Ormat Nevada. To the extent that the amount available to be drawn under the Ormesa Repayment Letter of Credit exceeds the Ormesa Repayment Requirement, the stated amount of the Ormesa Repayment Letter of Credit may be reduced and the Depositary shall execute all necessary documents to effectuate such reduction. -22-  (f) (i) Thirty (30) days (or if such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day) after receipt by the Depositary of a notice that any Ormesa Repayment Letter of Credit provider is no longer an Eligible Letter of Credit Provider (unless the Ormesa Repayment Letter of Credit issued by such Ormesa Repayment Letter of Credit provider has been replaced on or before the end of such 30-day period with a new Ormesa Repayment Letter of Credit issued by an Eligible Letter of Credit Provider) or (ii) if the Depositary has been notified by the Collateral Agent that, no later than thirty (30) days (or if such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day) prior to the stated expiration date of any Ormesa Repayment Letter of Credit, it has not received a notice that the Ormesa Repayment Letter of Credit will be extended or replaced upon its stated expiration date or upon receipt of a notice from any Ormesa Repayment Letter of Credit provider that the Ormesa Repayment Letter of Credit provided by such Ormesa Repayment Letter of Credit provider will not be renewed in accordance with its terms (unless such Ormesa Repayment Letter of Credit has been previously renewed, extended or replaced with a new Ormesa Repayment Letter of Credit), then in each such case the Depositary shall make a drawing on such Ormesa Repayment Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the Ormesa Repayment Requirement at such time minus the monies on deposit in the Ormesa Repayment Account at such time, provided that any drawing pursuant to clause (ii) following receipt of a notice from the Ormesa Repayment Letter of Credit provider that the Ormesa Repayment Letter of Credit provided by such Ormesa Repayment Letter of Credit provider will not be renewed in accordance with its terms shall be no earlier than thirty (30) days prior to expiration of such Ormesa Repayment Letter of Credit. The Collateral Agent shall deposit the amounts received from such Ormesa Repayment Letter of Credit provider in payment of such drawing in the Ormesa Repayment Account to be applied in accordance with this Section 3.7. (g) At 12:00 p.m. (noon) on the second (2nd) Business Day prior to any Ormesa Payment Date, if the monies on deposit in the "debt payment account" and the "debt service reserve account" under the Ormesa Credit Agreement combined with monies on deposit in the Ormesa Repayment Account and amounts in any of the other accounts under the Ormesa Credit Agreement other than the "debt service reserve account" that are available for payment of principal, premium and interest under the Ormesa Credit Agreement are not anticipated to be adequate to pay the amounts due on such Ormesa Payment Date, if an Ormesa Loan Repayment Letter of Credit is then in effect, the Depositary shall, two (2) Business Days prior to such Ormesa Payment Date, make a drawing on the Ormesa Loan Repayment Letter of Credit. The aggregate amount to be drawn on such Ormesa Loan Repayment Letter of Credit in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence shall be equal to the principal, premium and interest due with respect to the Ormesa Credit Agreement on the Ormesa Payment Date minus the monies then on deposit in the Ormesa Loan Repayment Account and the amounts in any of the other accounts under the Ormesa Credit Agreement other than the "debt service reserve account", that are available for payment of principal, premium and interest due under the Ormesa Credit Agreement (or, if less, the Drawing Amount of the Ormesa Loan Repayment Letter of Credit). The Depositary shall deposit the amounts, if any, received from the provider of such Ormesa Loan Repayment Letter of Credit to the Ormesa Loan Repayment Account and, on the Disbursement Date utilize such amounts to pay the principal, premium and interest due with respect to the Ormesa Credit Agreement on such Ormesa Payment Date. -23-  Section 3.8 Distribution Account.

Without limiting the foregoing, the Depositary shall be required to make payments to the Secured Parties only as set forth herein.

The Depositary shall not be liable to any of the parties hereto or any of the Secured Parties or their successors, heirs or personal representatives by reason of the Depositary's compliance with such writs, orders, judgments or decrees, notwithstanding such writ, order, judgment or decree is later reversed, modified, set aside or vacated. Section 4.4 Resignation or Removal. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Depositary as provided below, the Depositary may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days' written notice thereof to the Collateral Agent and each Facility Agent, -32-  the Issuer and the Guarantors, provided that in the event the Depositary is also the Collateral Agent and the Trustee, it must also at the same time resign as the Collateral Agent and the Trustee.

Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Depositary Agreement. We hereby certify to the Depositary as of the date hereof that: 1. We have reviewed the material and data made available to us by the Issuer with respect to [describe rebuilding, repair or restoration project] and have performed such other investigation as is referenced in the Annex attached hereto (the "Review"). Our Review was performed in accordance with generally accepted engineering and construction practices and included such investigation and review as we in our professional capacity deemed necessary or appropriate in the circumstances and within the scope of our appointment [insert customary exceptions and qualifications]. We have also reviewed the Restoration Requisition dated ________________ delivered by the Issuer, including any Appendices, Schedules and requisitions and/or invoices attached thereto or delivered therewith. 2. Based on our Review and on the understanding and assumption that we have been provided true, correct and complete information, [and insert customary exceptions and qualifications] we are of the opinion that, as of the date hereof:  (a) After giving effect to the payments requested under the Restoration Requisition, the undisbursed moneys in the Restoration Sub-Account together with any other amounts that the Issuer is willing to commit or cause to be committed to such rebuilding, repair or restoration is reasonably estimated to equal or exceed the amount necessary to pay for (i) all work, labor or services performed and all materials, supplies or equipment furnished for which payment has not yet been made and (ii) all other reasonably anticipated costs of rebuilding, repair or restoration ("Restoration Costs") which have yet to be paid in order to achieve operation of [all] [a portion] of the affected portion of the Project.
