1. PARTIES
The parties to this Agreement are IMPERIAL IRRIGATION DISTRICT (IID),
an irrigation district organized and operating under the laws of the State of
California and HEBER GEOTHERMAL COMPANY (Heber Geothermal), a California
Partnership (hereinafter individually Party, collectively Parties).
2. RECITALS
2.1 Heber Geothermal leases and operates a geothermal generating
facility with a maximum 49.9 megawatt net output at the Heber known Geothermal
Resource Area (KGRA) and sells the Electric Output From the Plant to Southern
California Edison Company (SCE).
2.1.1 Heber Geothermal intends to construct the Plant, and
upon completion of such construction, sell the Plant to United States
Trust Company of New York, a New York corporation, not in its
individual capacity (except as expressly provided in the
Participation Agreement and the Trust Agreement) but solely as Owner
Trustee under the Trust Agreement, and its successors and assigns as
such Owner Trustee (the "Owner Trustee") and lease back the Plant
from the Owner Trustee pursuant to the Lease Agreement, dated the
Lease Closing Date, between the Owner Trustee, as Lessor, and Heber
Geothermal, as Lessee (the "Lease"). To finance construction of the
Plant, Heber Geothermal proposes to borrow money from General
Electric Credit Corporation, a New York corporation ("GECC"),
pursuant to a loan agreement. Such borrowing will be secured in
accordance with the Construction Deed of Trust, Assignment of Rents,
Security Agreement and Fixture Filing, dated as of December 1, 1983,
among Heber Geothermal, the deed trustee and GECC, and as it may be
amended, modified and supplemented from time to time in accordance
with the terms thereof (the "Mortgage")
by a first mortgage on the Plant and by an assignment (for security
purposes only) of certain contractual rights of Heber Geothermal.
Upon completion of such construction, Xxxxx Geothermal intends to
assign all of its rights under certain contracts outright to the
Owner Trustee pursuant to the Xxxx of Sale and Assignment, dated the
Lease Closing Date, from Heber Geothermal in favor of the Owner
Trustee (the "Xxxx of Sale") in connection with the sale of the Plant
to the Owner Trustee. Contemporaneously with such assignment and
sale, Heber Geothermal intends to enter into the Lease pursuant to
which all of the Owner Trustee's rights under such contracts will be
assigned to Heber Geothermal during the term of the Lease and
thereafter if Heber Geothermal purchases the Plant pursuant to the
terms of the Lease. After giving effect to the aforesaid sale and
leaseback, Heber Geothermal will be fully obligated to perform all of
its obligations with respect to such contracts.
