As part of the Revision, it was provided that Rotem and Hadera will each give the Reduction Notification under the Tamar Agreements within 30 days of the Revision. The Revision also provides that commencing from the commercial operation date and up to the actual date of the reduction, Rotem and Hadera will be subject to a "take or pay" liability with respect to a certain quantity of natural gas31, while at the same time settlement arrangements were provided in connection with advancement of delivery of the Reduction Notification and with reference to acquisition of alternative gas by Rotem and Hadera in a case where the commercial operation date does not take place up to the actual date of the reduction. In addition, the Revision includes an option, which may be exercised up to the end of 2022, to purchase from Energean an additional immaterial quantity of natural gas, according to the terms of the agreement between Energean and Rotem. As part of the Revision, additional provisions were set forth, among others regarding the matter of a waiver of contentions and claims relating to the period prior to the Revision, and the circumstances were updated and the dates were postponed when the parties will be permitted to bring the Energean Agreements to an early conclusion due to a delay in the commercial operation date32 .
Based on public information published by Energean as at the date of the report, the first gas from the Karish reservoir is expected in the third quarter of 2022.
31 A quantity that is not material to the Company and that relates to a quantity beyond the "take or pay" pursuant to the Tamar Agreements.
32 For details regarding contentions of the parties – see the said sections in the annual report.

29 Regarding Hadera, the Revision as stated in this report is subject to receipt of approval of Hadera's lenders, which as at the date of the report had not yet been received.
30 It is clarified that the Tamar Agreements will continue to apply to the quantities that were not reduced pursuant to the reduction formulas stipulated in the Tamar Agreements, as stated above, and in Sections 7.14.1 and 7.14.3 of Part A of the Periodic Report for 2021.
That stated above, including regarding dates (also with reference to the commercial operation date and/or the date of the flow of the first gas from the Karish Tanin reservoir) and/or the impact of the Revision on the Company, includes "forward-looking" information, as it is defined in the Securities Law, regarding which there is no certainty it will be realized or the manner of its realization, which is dependent on, among other things, factors that are not under the Company's control, operating factors, third parties, etc. A delay in the commercial operation of the Karish Tanin reservoir (particularly a significant delay beyond the period of the Reduction Notification) could have a negative impact, even a significant one, on the activities and results of Rotem and Hadera and, accordingly, on the results of the Company's activities.
D. The Coronavirus and changes in prices and dates relating to raw materials and the global supply chain – in March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the Coronavirus to be a worldwide pandemic. Despite taking preventative measures in order to reduce the risk of spread of the virus, the virus continued to spread in number and in different waves and variants that developed, and it has caused significant business and economic uncertainty and volatility in the global markets. In the period of the report, the virus continued to cause global business and economic uncertainty. In the period of the report, some of the restrictions on movement (travel) and carrying on of business and trade in the Company's areas of activity were lifted, where the remaining restrictions imposed recently are less severe than the restrictions imposed in the earlier waves of the virus. Nonetheless, in the period of the report and thereafter, movement (travel) and other restrictions were imposed as a result of the virus in additional regions worldwide, including China, which could give rise to global consequences, including an impact on the generation and supply chain of the raw materials and their prices, that would also affect the raw materials required for the Company's construction activities in its areas of activities. In light of the dynamic nature of the virus and the consequences of ongoing events that are related to the virus (such as an increase in the prices of raw materials and transport costs), there remains uncertainty regarding the duration of the Coronavirus crisis, the intensity thereof and its impacts on the markets and factors relating the Company's activities (including personnel, significant customers, contractors, significant suppliers, lenders), as well as the uncertainty regarding the measures that will be taken by government entities in various countries. It is noted that during the period of the Coronavirus crisis, the activities of the Group's generation facilities in Israel and in the United States (as well as the construction activities) while making adjustments aimed at preventing the outbreak (spread) of the virus at these sites. As at the approval date of the financial statements, up to now the Coronavirus crisis has not had a significant impact on the Company's results.

D. (Cont.)
In the period of the report and thereafter, due to high global demand for raw materials and transport and dispatch, including due to the continuing across-the-board impacts of the Coronavirus crisis, there has been a significant increase in the costs of the raw materials, and delays in the generation and supply chain are visible, including an increase in the costs of marine shipping. Accordingly, global delays have been caused in the equipment supply dates along with an increase in the prices of raw materials and equipment used for construction and maintenance of the Group's generation facilities and power plants. This trend impacts the construction and/or maintenance costs of the Group's projects in its activity markets and the timetables for their completion. As at the approval date of the financial statements, there is no certainty with respect to the continuation or scope of the trend and, therefore, the Group is not able to estimate with any degree of certainty the impact thereof on the Group's activities.
For additional details regarding the Coronavirus crisis and its impacts on the Group's activities – see Sections 7.3.8, 7.11.1, 7.15.1 and 18.1.6 of Part A of the Periodic Report for 2021 and Note 28D to the consolidated financial statements for 2021.

40 It is emphasized that "adjusted income or loss" as stated in this report is not a recognized data item that is recognized under IFRS or under any other set of generally accepted accounting principles as an index for measuring financial performance and should not be considered as a substitute for income or loss or other terms provided in accordance with IFRS. "Adjusted income or loss" should not be viewed as a substitute for net income or loss attributable to the Company's shareholders prepared (calculated) pursuant to IFRS. It is possible that the Company's definitions of "adjusted income or loss" are different than those used by other companies. Nonetheless, the Company believes that the "adjusted income or loss" provides information that is useful to management and investors by means of eliminating certain line items (categories) that do not constitute an indication of the Company's ongoing activities.
The Company defines "EBITDA" as earnings (losses) before depreciation and amortization, changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments, net financing expenses or income and taxes on income. EBITDA is not recognized under IFRS or under any other generally accepted accounting standards as an indicator for the measurement of financial performance and should not be considered a substitute for profit or loss, cash flows from operating activities or other terms of operational performance or liquidity prescribed under IFRS.
EBITDA is not intended to represent monies that are available for distribution of dividends or other uses, since such monies may be used for servicing debt, capital expenditures, working capital and other liabilities. EBITDA is characterized by limitations that impair its use as an indicator of the Company's profitability, since it does not take into account certain costs and expenses deriving from the Company's business, which could materially affect its net income, such as financing expenses, taxes on income and depreciation.
The Company believes that the EBITDA (including EBITDA after making adjustments as detailed below) data provides transparent information that is useful to investors in examining the Company's operating performances and in comparing them against the operating performance of other companies in the same sector or in other sectors with different capital structures, debt levels and/or income tax rates. This data item is also used by Company management when examining the Company's performance. The Company believes that these indices, which are not in accordance with IFRS, provide useful information to investors since they improve the comparability of the financial results between periods and provide greater transparency of the main indices used for evaluating the Company's performance.
Set forth below is a calculation of the EBITDA data item for the periods presented. Other companies may calculate the EBITDA differently. Therefore, the EBITDA presentation herein may differ from those of other companies. In addition, other companies might use other indices for purposes of evaluation their performance, and thereby reducing the comparability of the Company's indices that are not in accordance with IFRS.

On February 1, 2022, an update of the annual electricity of the weighted-average for 2022 entered into effect, pursuant to which the generation component increased by 13.6% and stood at NIS 0.2869 per KW hour. This weighted-average is attributed to the mix of the consumption in the market, while the mix of the consumption of the customers of Rotem and Hadera power plants is not the same as the mix of the consumption in the market. In 2021, the weighted-average of the generation component tariff was NIS 0.2526 per KW hour. In addition, the Company's revenues from sale of steam are linked partly to the price of gas and partly to the Consumer Price Index. The increase in the generation component had a positive impact on the Company's income in the first quarter of 2022 compared with the corresponding period last year. For additional details regarding change in the generation component tariff commencing from May 2022 – see Section 3A to this report below. The updated tariff is expected to have a positive impact on the Company's profits in 2022 compared with the corresponding periods last year, however at a lower rate than the generation component tariff in the period of the report.
43 Including during load reductions.
In addition, from September 2021 the Company commenced supplying electricity to customers through purchase of energy from the System Operator that was purchased at a tariff that includes a component of the supplier's tariff and SMP (marginal half-hour price) in the framework of the virtual supply.
Set forth below is detail of the Company's cost of sales in Israel (less depreciation and amortization) broken down into the following components (in NIS millions):
| For the Three Months Ended March 31 |

|---|---|---|
| 2022 | 2021 | |
| Gas and diesel oil (1) | 124 | 126 |

| Expenses from activities of Gnrgy | 6 | – |
| Total cost of sales (less depreciation and amortization) | 290 | 241 |
For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021:
(1) A decrease in the gas consumption expenses, in the amount of about NIS 6 million, due to maintenance at the Rotem Power Plant. On the other hand, there was an increase, in the amount of about NIS 4 million, in the gas consumption cost at the Hadera Power Plant due to higher availability (capacity).
(2) An increase in energy acquisition expenses, in the amount of about NIS 30 million, stems from commencement of the virtual supply activities. In addition, there was an increase, in energy acquisition expenses, in the amount of about NIS 19 million, stemming from maintenance at Rotem. On the other hand, there was a decrease of about NIS 8 million due to higher availability (capacity) of the Hadera Power Plant.
(3) An increase in infrastructure expenses, in the amount of about NIS 9 million, stemming from commencement of the virtual supply activities. On the other hand, there was a decrease, in the amount of about NIS 4 million, due to a change in the customer consumption profile of the customers of the Hadera Power Plant.

The natural gas price is significant in determination of the price of the electricity in most of the regions in which the power plants of the CPV Group operate (the main fuel of the natural-gas powered conventional power plants of the CPV Group). The natural gas prices are impacted by a number of variables, including demand in the industrial, residential and electricity sectors, productivity of natural-gas supply reservoirs, natural-gas production costs, changes in the pipeline infrastructure, international trade and the financial profile and the hedging profile of the natural-gas customers and producers.
In the estimation of the CPV Group, the increase in the natural gas price in the first quarter of 2022 stems from, among other things, a strengthening of the global demand, which increases the demand for liquid natural gas from the United States, and the natural gas crisis in Europe, particularly against the background of the war in the Ukraine. In the estimation of the CPV Group, in general, in the existing production mix, to the extent the natural-gas prices are higher, the prices of the marginal energy will also be higher, and will have a positive increase on the energy margins of the CPV Group. This impact could be offset, in whole or in part, by hedging programs with respect to electricity and gas prices in the natural-gas powered conventional power plants of the CPV Group, which are intended to reduce changes in the CPV Group's electricity margins due to changes in the commodity prices in the energy market.
In the first quarter of 2022, the electricity prices increased in the markets in which the CPV Group, compared with the corresponding period last year. Most of the increase stems from an increase in the prices of natural gas.
The increase in the energy prices in the period of the report was offset by hedging agreements, in the Shore, Maryland, Fairview and Towantic power plants, while the Valley power plant, which as at the date of the report is not hedged, was favorably impacted by the increase in the energy prices. The purpose of the hedging agreements is to hedge the electricity margins (in the relevant period for every relevant power plant and in accordance with its characteristics) by signing hedging agreements on the gas and electricity prices, usually for short time periods. As at the submission date of the report, most of the hedging agreements are for periods of up to one year. The said hedging plans are in addition to the Revenue Put Option (RPO) agreements that were signed in some of the power plants of the CPV Group, are intended to ensure minimum cash flows for debt service. As at the submission date of the report, the estimate of the CPV Group is that about 69% of the electricity margin of electricity generation power plants using conventional technology of the CPV Group will be hedged for the rest of 2022.
In addition, the increase in the future energy prices gave rise to a requirement to deposit collaterals (that are non lien-based) in order to secure liabilities to parties to the hedging agreements, in the Maryland and Towantic power plants. The scope of the said collaterals (for 100% of the above-mentioned power plants) was about \$50 million as at March 31, 2022 (of which about \$12.9 million reflects the share of the CPV Group in the collaterals).
The following table summarizes the average electricity prices in each of the main markets in which power plants of the CPV Group are active, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 (the prices are denominated in dollars per megawatt hour):

44 The Three Rivers project, which is presently under construction, did not participate in the capacity tender, and is expected to participate in the capacity tender starting from the 2023–2024 capacity year.
Similar to the PJM market, in the NYISO market availability (capacity) payments are made in the framework of a central mechanism for acquisition of capacity. In the NYISO market, there are a number of submarkets, wherein there could be various capacity demands as a function of local supply and demand and transmission capability. NYISO makes seasonal tenders in every spring for the upcoming summer (May through October) and in the fall for the upcoming winter (November through April). In addition, there are supplemental monthly tenders for the balance of the capacity not sold in the seasonal tenders. Power plants are permitted to assure the capacity payments in the seasonal tender, the monthly tender or through bilateral sales. The Valley power plant is in Area G (Lower Hudson Valley).
Set forth below are the capacity prices determined in the seasonal tenders in NYISO market. It is noted that the actual capacity prices for Valley are impacted by the seasonal tenders, the monthly tenders and the SPOT prices, with variable capacity prices every month, as well as bilateral agreements with energy suppliers in the market (the prices are denominated in dollars per kilowatt per month):

The ISO-NE permits availability (capacity) payments as part of a central mechanism for acquisition of capacity. In the ISO-NE market, there are a number of submarkets, wherein there could be various capacity demands as a function of local supply and demand and transmission capability. Forward capacity tenders are made three years in advance for the capacity year. In addition, there are supplemental monthly tenders for the balance of the capacity not sold in the Forward tenders.
Towantic participated for the first time in an availability (capacity) tender for 2018–2019 at a price of \$9.55 KW/month and determination of the tariff for seven years in respect of 725 megawatts linked to the Utilities Inputs Index, which will apply up to May 2025. In March 2022, Towantic participated in the annual availability (capacity) tender for 2025–2026 and won a guaranteed availability (capacity) price of \$2.59 KW/month and for 745 megawatts.

We have reviewed the accompanying financial information of OPC Energy Ltd. (hereinafter – the "Company") and its subsidiaries, including the condensed consolidated interim statement of financial position as at March 31, 2022 and the condensed consolidated interim statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the three-month period then ended.The Board of Directors and management are responsible for preparing and presenting financial information for this interim period in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, and are also responsible for preparing financial information for this interim period under Chapter D of the Securities Regulations (Periodic and Immediate Reports), 1970. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion regarding the financial information for this interim period based on our review.
We conducted our review in accordance with Review Standard (Israel) 2410 - "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" of the Institute of Certified Public Accountants in Israel. A review of financial information for interim periods consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures.A review is substantially smaller in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in Israel and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might have been identifiable in an audit.Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the aforementioned financial information was not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS 34).
In addition to that mentioned in the previous paragraph, based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the aforementioned financial information does not comply, in all material respects, with the disclosure requirements of Section D of the Securities Regulations (Periodic and Immediate Reports), 1970.

The accompanying notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements are an integral part thereof.
OPC Energy Ltd. (hereinafter – "the Company") was incorporated in Israel on February 2, 2010. The Company's registered address is 121 Menachem Begin Blvd., Tel Aviv, Israel. The Company's controlling shareholder is Kenon Holdings Ltd. (hereinafter - the "Parent Company"), a company incorporated in Singapore, the shares of which are dual-listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (hereinafter - the "TASE").
The Company is a publicly-traded company whose securities are traded on the TASE. As at the date of the report, the Company and its consolidated companies (hereinafter – the "Group") is engaged in two reportable segments: (1) generation and supply of electricity and energy in Israel; and (2) the generation and supply of electricity and energy in the USA. In these segments, the Group is engaged in generation and supply of energy needs (electricity, steam and the provision of charging services for vehicles) to private customers, Israel Electric Corporation Ltd. (hereinafter – the "IEC") and Noga - Israel Independent System Operator Ltd. (hereinafter - the "System Operator"), in initiation, development, construction and operation of power plants and facilities for the generation of energy and provision of management services for power plants in the United States that are owned by third parties. The Group manages its operations in Israel mainly through a wholly owned subsidiary, OPC Power Plants Ltd. (formerly OPC Israel Energy Ltd., hereinafter - "OPC Power Plants"). Its activity in the United States is managed under CPV Group LP and its investees (hereinafter - "CPV Group"), held by the Company at a rate of 70%, indirectly (for further information see Note 25D1 to the financial statements as of December 31, 2021, and for the year then ended (hereinafter - the "Annual Financial Statements).
In Israel, the Group operates the Rotem Power Plant through OPC. Rotem Ltd. (hereinafter – "Rotem") (which is held by the OPC Power Plants (80%) and by another shareholder - Veridis - Power Plants Ltd. (hereinafter - "Veridis") (20%)) uses conventional technology, and has an installed capacity of approximately 466 megawatts (MW); the Hadera Power Plant, which is through OPC Hadera Ltd. (hereinafter – "Hadera"), which is wholly owned by OPC Power Plants, uses cogeneration technology and has an installed capacity of 144 MW. Furthermore, Hadera holds the Energy Center (boilers and a turbine on the site of Infinya Ltd., which serves as backup for the supply of steam. In addition, OPC Power Plants wholly owns Zomet Energy Ltd. (hereinafter – "Zomet"), which is working to construct a power plant powered by natural gas, using conventional technology in an open cycle (a peaker plant) having an installed capacity of approximately 396 MW, located in the vicinity of the Plugot Intersection, near Kiryat Gat. In addition, as from September 2021 the Company supplies 110 MW in electricity under the virtual supply license (as defined in Note 28L to the annual financial statements). Furthermore, the Company is working to construct and operate facilities for generation of energy on the consumers' premises, which generate electricity using natural gas and renewable energy and enters into arrangements for supply and sale of energy to consumers; the Company is also working to construct the Sorek generation facility, which will supply energy to the Sorek B Desalination Facility, at a capacity of 87 MW, as stated in Note 25A1(D) to the Annual Financial Statements.
The Group's activities in Israel are subject to regulation, including, among other things, the provisions of the Electricity Sector Law, 1996, and the regulations promulgated thereunder, resolutions of the Israeli Electricity Authority, the provisions of the Law for Minimizing Market Centralization and Promoting Economic Competition, 2013, the provisions of the Economic Competition Law, 1988 and the regulations promulgated thereunder, as well as regulation in connection with licensing of businesses, planning and construction, and environmental protection. The Israeli Electricity Authority is authorized to issue licenses under the Electricity Sector Law (licenses for facilities having a generation capacity in excess of 100 MW also require approval by the Minister of Energy), supervise the license holders (including supply licenses and private generation licenses), determine tariffs and set benchmarks for the level, nature and quality of the services that are required from a holder of a "Essential Service Provider" license. Accordingly, the Israeli Electricity Authority supervises both the IEC and independent power producers.
The Group's activity is subject to seasonal effects as a result of changes in the energy demand management rate (hereinafter – the "TAOZ"), which is regulated and published by the Israeli Electricity Authority. The year is broken down into three seasons, as follows: summer (July and August), winter (December, January, and February) and "transitional" (March through June and September through November), with a different tariff set for each season. The Company's results are based on the generation component, which is part of the TAOZ, resulting in a seasonal effect.
In the United States, through CPV Group, the Group operates power plants using conventional energy, powered by natural gas, and also operates in the renewable energy sector. As at the approval date of the financial statements, the CPV Group's share of the natural gas-fired power plants is approximately 1,290 MW out of 4,045 MW (5 power plants), and in wind energy - CPV's share is approximately 152 MW (one wholly-owned power plant).
In addition, the CPV Group holds rights to gas-fired power plants using conventional energy with a capacity of 1,258 MW which are under construction (CPV's share as at the approval date of the financial statements is 126 MW) and 228 MW in solar projects under construction. The project backlog of CPV Group as at the reporting date includes a backlog of renewable energy projects and conventional natural gas-fired power plants in the advanced development stages and other projects using various technologies. Furthermore, CPV Group is also engaged in: (1) providing asset and energy management services for power plants in the US that are owned by the Group and by third parties. As of the approval date of the financial statements, CPV Group also provides asset management services for power plants with an overall capacity of approx. 7,366 MW, and energy management services to power plants with an overall capacity of approx. 4,235 MW.

The power market in the United States is regulated both on the federal level (wholesale sale of electricity and interstate transmission) and state level (retail sale of electricity and distribution services to end consumers). The primary federal regulator is the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), alongside state-level public service commissions exercising additional regulatory oversight. The electricity market in the United States operates under several regional or state market operators, known as Regional Transmission Organizations (RTO) or Independent System Operators (ISOs). The ISOs and RTOs are responsible for the day-to-day operation of the transmission system, the administration of the wholesale markets in their respective regions, and for the long-term transmission planning and resource adequacy functions.
The activity of the CPV Group is subject to, among other things, changes in federal and state legislation, federal and state energy regulations and federal and state environmental protection laws and regulations. These laws impact the ability of the facilities of the CPV Group to operate, the prices of the products they produce, and the costs and charges involved in their production. Therefore, regulations, laws and decisions by the federal and state authorities, particularly public service committees, a federal energy regulatory committee and environmental protection authorities, have a direct and indirect impact on the CPV Group's activity.
The revenues of the CPV Group from electricity generation are seasonal and impacted by variable demand, gas prices and electricity prices, as well as the weather. In general, with respect to gas-fired power plants, there is higher profitability in seasons where temperatures are at their highest or lowest - usually during summer and winter. Similarly, the profitability of renewable energy production is subject to production volume, which varies based on wind and solar constructions, as well as its electricity price, which tends to be higher in winter, unless there is a fixed contractual price for the project.
In March 2020, the World Health Organization announced that Covid-19 was a global pandemic. Despite the preventative measures implemented in order to reduce the spread of the pandemic, it continued to spread, in various variants, and caused considerable business and economic uncertainty and volatility in global markets. In the reporting period, Covid-19 continued to cause global business and economic uncertainty. In the reporting period, some of the restrictions on movement, business, and commerce in the Company's regions of activity were removed, and the restrictions that were left in place are more lenient than those imposed in previous Covid-19 waves. However, during the reporting period and thereafter, travel and other restrictions are imposed as a result of the pandemic in additional regions around the world, including in China; these restrictions may have global implications, including on the production and supply chain of raw materials and their prices, including raw materials required for the Company's construction activities in its areas of activity.
During the reporting period and thereafter, due to high global demand for raw materials and for transportation and shipping, including due to the effects of the Covid-19 crisis across the board, there was a significant increase in the costs of raw materials, and production and supply chain delays, including an increase in the cost of maritime transport. This resulted in global delays in delivery dates for equipment alongside increased prices of raw materials and equipment used for the construction and maintenance of the Group's facilities and power plants. This trend affects the construction and maintenance costs of the Group's projects in the markets of activity and the schedules for their completion. As of the report approval date, there is no certainty as to the duration or scope of the trend, therefore the Group is unable to assess with full certainty its effect on the Group's activity.
It should also be noted that during the reporting period and thereafter, the global geopolitical environment, against the backdrop of the fighting between Russia and Ukraine, is characterized by instability, which greatly affects the macroeconomic environment, causes changes in energy prices, economic uncertainty, as well as supply chain, commodity prices and availability issues, etc. Due to the continuation of the event, the Company is unable to assess the extent of its impact on the Company's operations as of the approval date of the financial statements, but there are already indications of an increase in the prices of commodities, transportation and energy, and a challenge in terms of availability of various raw materials.
The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 (hereinafter – "IAS 34") - "Interim Financial Reporting" and do not include all of the information required in complete Annual Financial Statements. These statements should be read in conjunction with the Annual Financial Statements. In addition, these financial statements were prepared in accordance with the provisions of Section D of the Securities Regulations (Periodic and Immediate Reports) 1970.
The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements were approved for publication by the Company's Board of Directors on May 24, 2022.
The New Israeli Shekel (NIS) is the currency that represents the primary economic environment in which the Company operates. Accordingly, the NIS is the Company's functional currency. The NIS also serves as the presentation currency in these financial statements. Currencies other than the NIS constitute foreign currency.
In preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with the IFRS, the Company's management is required to use judgment when making estimates, assessments and assumptions that affect implementation of the policies and the amounts of assets, liabilities, income, and expenses. It is clarified that the actual results may differ from these estimates.
Management's judgment, at the time of implementing the Group's accounting policies and the main assumptions used in the estimates involving uncertainty, are consistent with those used in the Annual Financial Statements.

A. The Group's accounting policies in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are the same as the policies applied to the Annual Financial Statements.
The amendment, which came into effect on January 1 2022, revoked the requirement whereby in calculating costs that are directly attributable to property, plant and equipment, the net proceeds from the sale of any items produced in the process (such as samples produced at the time of testing the equipment) should be deducted from the costs of testing the proper functioning of the asset. Instead, such proceeds will be recognized in profit and loss according to the relevant standards.
The Company applied the amendment retrospectively, including revision of the comparative figures, but only for items of property, plant and equipment that were brought to the location and status required for them to be able to function in the manner contemplated by management after the earliest reporting period presented on first-time application of the amendment, i.e., as from January 1 2020. For information about the effect of first-time application see Note 2D above.
The carrying amounts of certain financial assets and financial liabilities, including short-term and long-term deposits, cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade receivables, other receivables, derivative financial instruments and other payables, and some of the Group's long-term loans are the same as or approximate to their fair values.

Derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value, using the Level 2 valuation method. The fair value is measured using the discounted future cash flows method, on the basis of observable inputs.
The Group enters into transactions in derivative financial instruments in order to hedge foreign currency risks, Libor US interest risks, and risks of changes in the CPI. Derivative financial instruments are recorded based on their fair value. The fair value of the derivative financial instruments is based on prices, rates and interest rates that are received from banks, brokers and through accepted trading software. The fair value of the derivative financial instruments is estimated on the basis of the data received, using valuation and pricing techniques that are characteristic of the various instruments in the different markets. The fair value measurement of long-term derivative financial instruments is estimated by discounting the cash flows arising from them, based on the terms and conditions and term to maturity of each instrument and using market interest rates for similar instruments as at the measurement date. Changes in the economic assumptions and the valuation techniques could materially affect the fair value of the instruments.

5) Explanations for the main differences between US GAAP and IFRS:
As of the report date, the Group has two geographic operating segments that constitute its strategic business units. These strategic business units include products and services and are managed separately for resource allocation and evaluation of performance purposes due to the fact that they are located in different geographic regions. For each strategic business unit, the chief operating decision maker regularly reviews the internal managerial reports. In addition, the segment's results are based on the Company's profit (loss) before depreciation and amortization, changes of the fair value of derivative financial instruments, net finance expenses or income, and income taxes attributed to the Group's reportable segments, as well as net of non-recurring income (expenses) (hereinafter - "Adjusted EBITDA"). The data of associates and joint ventures in this note are included by way of proportionate consolidation according to the CPV Group's holding rate. The information on subsidiaries in this note is presented in full without adjustment to the holding rate. The adjustment column adjusts the results to the income statement mainly as a result of presenting the data of associates. Set forth below is a brief description of the business activities of each of the Group's operating segments:
The Company manages its operations in Israel under a single operational roof, mainly through OPC Power Plants, and its operations in the United States under another operational roof through the CPV Group.

The said purchase amounts also include credit costs, which were discounted to property, plant and equipment at NIS 11 million and NIS 3 million, in the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022, and March 31, 2021, respectively, as well as non-cash purchases totaling NIS 37 million and NIS 179 million for these periods, respectively.
In January 2022, the Compensation Committee, authorized by the Board of Directors, approved a private placement to an officer, amounting to 272,452 options convertible into 272,452 ordinary shares of NIS 0.01 par value each of the Company (hereinafter - the "Offered Securities"), and 26,948 non-marketable restricted share units. The Offered Securities are offered by virtue of the option plan as described in Note 18B to the annual financial statements and include identical terms and provisions.
The exercise price of each allocated option is NIS 33.21 (non-linked). The exercise price is subject to certain adjustments (including in respect of distribution of dividends, issuance of rights, etc.). The average fair value of the options on approval date of the allocation by the Board of Directors, using the Black and Scholes model, was NIS 9.91 per option. The calculation is based on the monthly standard deviation ranging from 33.55% to 33.67%, an annual risk-free interest rate ranging from 0.47% to 0.75%, an expected life of 4 to 6 years and price of a Company's stock on January 10, 2022, which was NIS 33.30.
The cost of the benefit implicit in the offered securities, which is based on the fair value as at the date of their allotment, amounted to approximately NIS 4 million. This amount will be recorded in profit and loss over the vesting period of each tranche.
For more information about an allocation subsequent to the report date, see Note 9C.

Further to what is stated in Note 28G to the annual financial statements, Rotem and Hadera have natural gas purchase agreements with the Tamar Group (hereinafter - the "Tamar Agreements"). In accordance with the Tamar Agreements, Rotem and Hadera may give Tamar notice by December 31 2022 regarding the reduction of part of the contractual minimum quantity of gas to be purchased, in accordance with the formulae set in the Tamar Agreements (hereinafter - the "Reduction Notice"); such reduction will come into force at the end of the period set in Rotem and Hadera's agreements with Tamar (12 and 8 months, respectively) (hereinafter - the "Actual Reduction Date"). In accordance with the Energean Agreements, Rotem and Hadera shall issue the Reduction Notice by the date on which piping of gas from the Karish reservoir will commence after the end of the running in period (hereinafter - the "Commercial Operation Date").
As part of the amendment, it was decided that Rotem and Hadera will issue their respective Reduction Notices under the Tamar Agreements within 30 days from the amendment date. It was further determined in the amendment that as from the Commercial Operation Date and through the Actual Reduction Date, Rotem and Hadera will have a take or pay undertaking regarding a certain quantity of natural gas, and at the same time account settling arrangements were put in place in connection with the bringing forward of the Reduction Notice, and in connection with Rotem and Hadera's purchase of gas from alternative sources if the Commercial Operation Date does not take place by the Actual Reduction Date. In addition, the amendment includes an option that may be exercised until the end of 2022 to purchase further immaterial quantities of natural gas from Energean under the terms of the agreement between Energean and Rotem. The amendment sets up further provisions, including, among other things, regarding waiver of assertions and claims in relation to the period prior to the amendment; the amendment also revises the circumstances and defers the dates on which the parties may terminate the Energean Agreements early due to a deferral of the Commercial Operation Date.
It should be noted that regarding Hadera, the amendment is subject to the approval of Hadera's lenders; as of the financial statements approval date, such approval has not yet been obtained, and a period of 60 days from the amendment's signing date was set during which the approval may be obtained.
According to information in the public domain, as published by Energean as of the report date, first gas from the Karish reservoir is expected in the third quarter of 2022.
C. In May 2022, the Company's Board of Directors approved (after the Compensation Committee's approval regarding the officers), a private placement to offerees of 2,002,111 nonmarketable options convertible into 2,002,111 ordinary Company shares of NIS 0.01 par value (hereinafter - the "Options"). The Options are offered by virtue of the option plan as described in Note 18B to the annual financial statements and include identical terms and provisions.
The exercise price of each allocated option is NIS 36.6 (non-linked). The exercise price is subject to certain adjustments (including in respect of distribution of dividends, issuance of rights, etc.). The average fair value of the options on approval date of the allocation by the Board of Directors, using the Black and Scholes model, was NIS 10.42 per option. The calculation is based on the monthly standard deviation ranging from 33.11% to 33.53%, an annual risk-free interest rate ranging from 1.84% to 2.05%, an expected life of 4 to 6 years and price of a Company's stock on May 2, 2022, which was NIS 34.93.
The cost of the benefit implicit in the offered securities, which is based on the fair value as at the date of their allotment, amounted to approximately NIS 21 million. This amount will be recorded in profit and loss over the vesting period of each tranche.
