Emergency, Seller shall make all, reasonable efforts to reschedule the outage. Failure of Seller to provide Net Capacity during an Emergency when first requested by Edison following the Date of Firm Operation shall not result in a reduction of Monthly Capacity Payments. However, after said initial request by Edison, whether or not Seller has complied with such request, any subsequent failure by Seller to comply with a request for Net Capacity by Edison shall result in the Availability Factor becoming 0.5 for the month in which the request occurred. The Availability Factor shall continue to be 0.5 until Seller can demonstrate that the Project can comply with a request for Net Capacity by Edison. 16. TAXES: 16.1 Ad valorem taxes and other taxes properly attributed to the Project and Geothermal Facilities shall be paid by Seller. If such taxes are assessed or levied against Edison, Seller shall pay Edison the amount of such assessment or levy within thirty days of presentation of a bill therefor. 16.2 Ad valorem taxes and other taxes properly attributed to land, land rights or interests in land for the Interconnection Facilities shall be paid by Edison. If such taxes are levied against Seller, Edison shall pay Seller the amount of such assessment or levy within thirty days of presentation of a bill therefor. 17. BILLING AND PAYMENT 17.1 Billing for Net Energy shall be determined for each calendar month by application of the Agreement Price pursuant to Section 15, to monthly meter readings 28

EX-10.3.1193rd Page of 116TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 93rd
GEOTHERMAL LEASE THIS LEASE is made this 31st day of August, 1953 by and between MAGMA ENERGY, INC., ("Lessor") a Nevada corporation, as Lessor, and HOLT GEOTHERMAL COMPANY, ("Lessee") a California corporation, as Lessee. Recitals Lessor has heretofore drilled certain wells and developed certain geothermal resources on the land and premises hereinafter described. Lessee desires to undertake to develop additional geothermal resources on said land and to construct thereon facilities to utilize geothermal resources for the generation of electric power, utilizing the Magmamax power process, a proprietary and patented process owned by Lessor for generating electric power utilizing geothermal resources, the U.S. patent number thereon being 3,757,516. Lessee desires, in addition to a non-exclusive license to utilize on and limited to the leased land the Magmamax power process, to use a portion of said land for electric power generating facilities and to obtain, on a continuing basis and subject to License Agreement, the benefit of Lessor's continuing knowledge and experience with respect to the Magmamax process and to have the non-exclusive right to utilize any new developments or improvements of the Magmamax process on and limited to the leased land. 1. WITNESSETH: that in consideration of the agreements contained herein, the parties hereby enter into a lease of the hereinafter described land (the "leased land") by Lessor to Lessee and concurrently herewith, and as part of one integrated transaction, the parties shall enter into a License Agreement with respect to the leased _ land ________ ____ respect to the use by Lessee of the Magmamax power process. In consideration of the agreements contained herein, the Lessor does grant, lease, let and demise unto the Lessee, its successors and assigns, the leased land with the sole and exclusive right to the Lessee to enter upon and to use and occupy the leased land to explore for, drill for, develop, mine, produce and use the natural heat of the earth, the energy, in whatever form, below the surface of the earth present in, resulting from, or created by, or which may be extracted from, such natural heat, and all minerals in solution or other products obtained from naturally heated fluids, brines, associated gases, and steam, in whatever form, found below the surface of the earth ("geothermal resources") and to take, store, remove, dispose of and use sam_

-2- and for uses and purposes incidental thereto, together with the right to use the leased land and to construct and maintain any and all facilities thereon and therein as may be necessary for Lessee's operations on the leased land or other lands in the vicinity of the leased land, and for use of the geothermal resources including but not limited to well sites, pipelines, power plants, power transmission lines, power stations, tanks, ponds, wells for injection or reinjection of waste water, gases and other residual products, roads, and other structures and installations. Lessor retains all rights to use and occupy the surface and subsurface of the leased land for all purposes, provided that such use or occupancy shall not unreasonably interfere with the rights of Lessee under this Lease. 2. Description The leased land is described in Exhibit "A" attached hereto and made a part hereof. In addition to the above-described leased land, this Lease also covers accretions and any small strips or parcels of land now or hereafter owned by Lessor which are contiguous or adjacent to the above-described leased land. Lessor agrees to execute at Lessee's request any additional or supplemental instruments for a more complete or accurate description of the land so covered. 3. Term TO _AVE AND TO __OLD the leased land for a period of thirty (30) years from the date hereof ("primary term") and so long thereafter as any geothermal resources are produced therefrom, or are capable of being produced therefrom, or drilling or producing operations are conducted thereon, or excused under the terms hereof. 4. Commencement of Operations Within eighteen (18) months after the effective case of this Lease, Lessee shall commence and diligently continue the drilling of one or more wells for production of geothermal resources from the leased land until Lessee shall have satisfied itself that sufficient geothermal resources are obtainable to supply the needs of a power plant or power plants of a gross capacity of ten (10) or more megawatts. If, within six (6) months after commencement of drilling the first well on the leased land, Lessee determines in its sole judgment that it is not able to develop on the leased land a sufficient quantity of geothermal resources to _______ installation of one or more power plants for generating electricity therefrom, Lessee may, upon notice given to Lessor within thirty (30) days after expiration of such six (6) month period, terminate and be freed of all obligations under this Lease. If Lessee elects not to so terminate this Lease, Lessee shall proceed with the drilling of such well or wells as it deems appropriate to supply the requisite quantity of geothermal

-3- resources for operation of a power plant or power plants and shall proceed diligently and in good faith with construction of a power plant or power plants on the leased land for generation of electricity utilizing the geothermal resources. 5. Royalty Lessee shall pay to Lessor as royalty during the full term of this Lease compensations as follows: (a) As to electricity generated by facilities having a gross rated capacity of ten (10) megawatts or less, Lessee shall pay to Lessor twenty-two percent (22%) of the cross proceeds received by Lessee. The said payment shall be deemed to embrace a payment of nineteen percent (19%) of gross proceeds for geothermal resources produced from the leased land and utilized for the generation of electricity thereon and three percent (3%) of gross proceeds as payment for the said non-exclusive license, for surface land use and for Lessee's agreement to make available to Lessor subject to License Agreement its continuing knowledge and experience with respect to the Magmamax power process and the right to utilize new developments or improvements thereof on the leased land; (b) As to electricity generated by facilities having a gross rated capacity in excess of ten (10) megawatts, Lessee shall pay to Lessor twenty-five percent (25%) of the gross proceeds received by Lessee. The said payment shall be deemed to embrace a payment of twenty-two percent (22%) of gross proceeds for geothermal resources produced and utilized for the generation of electricity and three percent (3%) of gross proceeds as payment for the said non-exclusive license, for surface land use and for Lessor's agreement to make available to Lessee subject to License Agreement its continuing knowledge and experience with respect to the Magmamax power process and the right to utilize new developments or improvements thereof on the leased land; (c) The payment by Lessee to Lessor of the total compensations provided for in subparagraphs (a) and (b) hereof, when due, for the full term of this Lease is a condition to the continuation of Lessee's rights under this Lease and its right to use or occupy the leased land or any part thereof. In the event Lessee shall default under any covenant or condition of this Lease and shall fail to remedy such default or to commence in good faith to remedy such default, if such default cannot be remedied within the notice period, Lessor shall have the right, upon expiration of sixty (60) days written notice of default, to terminate this Lease and all of Lessee's rights hereunder. The term "gross proceeds" means the amount received from the sale to others of electricity produced on the leased land from geothermal resources therein by the Lessee. Lessee shall pay to Lessor said royalty on the last day of each month for accrued royalties for the preceding calendar month. If the geothermal resources produced from the leased land are insufficient for operation of

-4- Lessee's plant or plants at a gross capacity of ten (10) megawatts, at the request of Lessee, Lessor may supply geothermal resources from other land and the 22% royalty rate shall apply to gross proceeds produced therefrom. If Lessor is unable to provide sufficient geothermal resources, Lessee may secure geothermal resources from other lands without paying royalty to Lessor on the geothermal resources so secured. Lessee shall have the right to commingle the geothermal resources with geothermal resources produced from other lands and to pay Lessor's royalty on the basis of production allocable to the leased land as determined by metering or gauging same. Lessee shall not be required to pay royalty on any electricity generated on the leased land and used by it in its operations under this Lease. 6. License Agreement Lessor agrees to grant to Lessee, by separate agreement entered into concurrently herewith, a non-exclusive license to utilize on and limited to the leased land for the term of this Lease Lessor's patented Magmamax power process and improvements thereof. Together with said license, Lessor will agree to make available to Lessee without additional consideration, Lessor's continuing knowledge and experience with respect to said process. In the event Lessee shall develop any patentable improvements to the Magmamax power process, Lessor shall be entitled to a non-exclusive royalty free license with respect thereto. 7. Plant Expansion Lessee shall have the right to increase the capacity of its plant or build additional plants on the leased land if operations under this Lease demonstrate the availability of an adequate supply of geothermal resources on the same terms and conditions as set forth herein. Lessee shall have the right of first refusal for the development of electricity available from geothermal resources on adjacent or nearby lands leased or otherwise controlled by Lessor, in the event Lessee's operation proves the adequacy of the geothermal resources and the commercial feasibility of producing electricity therefrom. Lessee shall have four (4) years from the date of firm operation of the plant to determine if an increase in plant and production capacity is warranted by the geothermal resources underlying the leased land on the basis of its operations. Lessee will notify Lessor of its determination on or before the fourth anniversary of said date. If an increase in the size of the plant or construction of additional plants is not warranted in Lessee's sole judgement, Lessee will relinquish its rights to the surface area not actually used for the original plant or plants, gathering and injection lines, and wells. Lessor shall assume full responsibility for compliance
EX-10.3.1197th Page of 116TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 97th
-5- with any necessary governmental approvals of such a relinquishment by Lessee. A release of surface rights to any part of the leased land shall not constitute a release of any part of the geothermal resources underlying the leased land. 8. Reinjection Lessee shall have the right to drill such well or wells on the leased land as Lessee may deem desirable, including wells for injection or reinjection purposes, and shall have the right to dispose, in any such wells waste brine, water and other substances, waste products from a well or wells, power plants or other facilities, located on the leased land or from wells, power plants or other facilities, located in the vicinity of the leased land. Lessee shall have the right to freely transfer geothermal resources from wells located on the leased land, or other lands in the vicinity of the leased land, to and from the leased land and to inject geothermal resources into a well or wells located on the leased land. 9. Inspection by Lessor Lessor, or its agents, at Lessor's sole risk, may during hours of operation examine the leased land and the workings, installations and structures thereto and operations of Lessee thereon, and may at reasonable times inspect the books and records of Lessee with respect to production and operations and matters pertaining to the payment of royalties to Lessor. Lessee shall make available to Lessor all of Lessee's information and operating experience as to producing and injection wells and the installed electric generating facilities. Lessee shall also furnish to Lessor all drilling, engineering and geological reports, tests and logs as to all wells drilled on said land. Lessor retains the right to utilize the leased land for any and all purposes provided that such use shall not unreasonably interfere with Lessee's operations thereon. Lessor, its employees, representatives and permittees retain the right at all times to enter upon the leased land and to view all operations and activities of Lessee thereon, provided that Lessee shall not be liable to Lessor or to any such persons for personal injury or property damage not resulting from any negligent act or omission of Lessee. Lessor shall maintain all information gained by such inspection in strict confidence and shall not disclose any of such information to third parties without advance written permission of Lessee. 10. Warranty of Title Lessor hereby warrants that it has clear title to the leased land and the geothermal resources contained therein, agrees to defend title conveyed to Lessee under this Lease, and agrees that Lessee, at Lessee's option, may pay and discharge any taxes, mortgages or liens existing, levied or assessed on or against the leased land. If Lessee
EX-10.3.1198th Page of 116TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 98th
-6- exercises such option, Lessee shall be subrogated to the rights of the party to whom payment is made to the extent of all payments, costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees, and, in addition to its other rights, may reimburse itself out of any royalties otherwise payable to Lessor. In the event Lessee is made aware of any claim inconsistent with Lessor's title, Lessee may suspend the payment of royalties under this Lease, without interest, until Lessee has been furnished satisfactory evidence that such claim has been resolved. 11. Lesser Interest If the Lessor or any party Lessor owns a lesser interest in the geothermal resources under this Lease than the entire and undivided fee estate therein, then the royalty herein provided as to geothermal resources shall be paid to the Lessor or such party Lessor only in the proportion which his ownership bears to the whole and undivided fee. Lessor shall bear the entire cost of any underlying royalty interest in the fee estate or otherwise. 12. Removal Lessee shall have the right at any time and from time to time to remove from the leased land any and all casing, machinery, equipment, structures, installations and property of every kind and character placed upon the leased land by or pursuant to permission of Lessee, provided that if such removal should occur after termination of all rights granted herein, it shall be completed within a reasonable time thereafter. Lessee agrees after termination of this lease to leave the leased land in a clean condition and to level sump holes or excavations. 13. Implied Covenants This Lease constitutes and expresses the entire agreement between the parties and no implied covenant of any kind shall be read into it and in particular there shall not be read into it any implied covenant requiring Lessee to commence or to continue to conduct more drilling or other operations on the leased land or to drill more wells thereon or fixing any greater measure of diligence than Lessee has herein expressly agreed to. 14. Ancillary Rights In exploring for, developing, producing, using and marketing geothermal resources on the leased land, Lessee shall have the right of ingress and agrees along with the right to conduct such operations on the leased land as may be reasonably necessary for such purposes, including but not limited to geophysical operations, the drilling of wells, and the construction and use of roads, canals, pipelines, tanks, water wells, disposal wells, injection wells, pits, electric and telephone lines, power stations and plants, and
EX-10.3.1199th Page of 116TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 99th
-7- other facilities deemed necessary by Lessee to discover, produce, store, treat or transport geothermal resources and easements necessary thereto. Lessee may use in such operations, free of cost, any water or other substances produced on the leased land. The right of ingress and egress granted hereby shall apply to the entire leased land described, notwithstanding any partial release or other termination of this Lease with respect thereto. 15. Breach or Default In the event at any time after four (4) years from the date hereof Lessee shall sell electrical power from said leased land in any amount less than two (2) megawatts gross generating capacity and if such condition continues for a period of one (1) year (the generating output would be computed on an average for said one year), Lessor shall have the right to consider the aforesaid event a default under this Lease, provided that Lessee shall not be required to produce and sell electricity in excess of the reservoir capability of the leased land.
