19 As at the publication date of the report, the CPV Group had signed an agreement of principles with a "tax partner" ("Tax Equity Partner") for investment of about \$40 million in the project, where as at this date the undertaking is subject to completion of the negotiations and signing of the binding agreements. For additional details – see Section 4E in this Report of the Board of Directors below.
20 As at the date of this report, the expected cost of the investment in the project increased compared with the cost expected as at June 30, 2021 (see Report of the Company's Board of Directors as at June 30, 2021), where the said increase stems from mostly from development fees to the CPV Group as a result of a change in the structure of the expected undertaking with the Tax Equity Partner (as stated above) that is expected to permit a potential increase in development fees to the CPV Group (where the development fees are estimated as at the date of the report in the aggregate amount of about \$30–\$35 million and are included in the above amount), and partly from an increase in the equipment costs and additional expected costs. That stated in connection with the amount of the development fees to the credit of the CPV Group is "forward-looking" information that is based on the estimates of the CPV Group as at the date of the report and that is subject to the final conditions that will be determined, if any, in a binding agreement with the Tax Equity Partner, which has not yet been signed.

21 As at the publication date of the report, the CPV Group is expected to take action to sign an agreement with a "tax investor" ("Tax Equity Partner") with respect to investment in the project (subject to appropriate regulatory arrangements). The Tax Equity Partner will enjoy most of the tax benefits in respect of the project, which are mainly tax credits relating to Production Tax Credits (PTC) and depreciation expenses for tax purposes, as well as participation in a proportionate amount to be agreed to of the free cash flows for distribution. The entitlement to participate in part of the free cash flows is effective up to the point of reaching a rate of return on the investment of the Tax Equity Partner that will provided in the agreement. After reaching the said rate of return, the share of the Tax Equity Partner in the income and cash flows will decline to a minimum rate. It is emphasized that the CPV Group has not yet signed an agreement, as stated, and therefore there is no certainty that such an agreement will ultimately be signed, or that its conditions will be in accordance with that stated (if ultimately signed), and the matter is subject to, among other things, to commercial and regulatory conditions.
22 For details regarding the PPA agreement signed in April 2021 – see Note 9K(5) to the Interim Statements.
23 Including development fees to the CPV Group, which are estimated at the amount of about \$15 – \$20 million. As at the date of the report, the expected cost of the investment in the project increased compared with the expected cost as at June 30, 2021, where the increase stems mainly from an increase in the expected costs of the wind turbine for the power plant and an increase in the construction budget, shipping and delivery costs, and transmission network upgrade costs. It is noted that part of the increase of the transmission network upgrade costs is compensated for in the framework of the price adjustments based on the price formula in the project's PPA agreement. It is clarified that the amount shown in the table is subject to additional changes, including due to a global increase in equipment and shipping costs, which has been visible over the past several months and/or other costs. That stated regarding the amount of the development fees to the CPV Group is "forward-looking" information that is based on the estimates of the CPV Group as at the date of the report and which will be subject to the final conditions that will be determined in a yet to be signed binding agreement with the tax partner.

24 In general, the CPV Group views projects that in its estimation are in a period of up to two years or up to three years to the start of the construction as projects in the advanced development stage (there is no certainty the development projects, including projects in the advanced stage, will be executed). It is noted that that stated depends on the scope of the project and the technology, and could change based on specific characteristics of a certain project, as well as from external circumstances that are relevant to a certain project. It is clarified that in the early development stages (in particular), the scope of the projects and their characteristics are subject to changes, if and to the extent they reach advanced stages.
25 The information presented in this section with reference to development projects of the CPV Group, including regarding the number of projects, their characteristics (the capacity, technology, etc.), constitutes "forward-looking" information as it is defined in the Securities Law, regarding which there is no certainty it will be realized or the manner in which it will be realized. It is clarified that as at the date of the report there is no certainty regarding the actual execution of the development projects (in whole or in part), and their progress is subject to, among other things, completion of development and licensing processes, obtain control over the lands, signing agreements (such as equipment and agreements agreements), execution of construction and connection processes, assurance of financing and receipt of various regulatory approvals and permits, which as at the present time have not yet been completed. In addition, advancement of the development projects is subject to the discretion of the competent authorities of the CPV Group and of the Company. It is clarified that the Rogue's Wind project, which is in the advanced initiation stage in the near term, is included in the above table. It is further clarified that solar projects under development that are the subject of the Immediate Report dated October 20, 2021 (Reference No.: 2021-01-157965) are included in the above table.
It is noted that the ability to locate new projects in relevant energy markets, with price and liquidity levels that support new construction constitutes a significant success factor for the development activities. In addition, regarding renewable energy projects, it is important that the country or region wherein the CPV Group seeks to construct new projects have the possibility to generate additional revenues through sale of Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs). It is further noted that in the estimation of the CPV Group, additional factors that impact the development activities include, among others: obtaining sufficient control over the lands; the ability to connect to the electricity grid at a strategic connection point at a low connection cost; obtaining the permits required for construction of new projects, including compliance with all the environmental requirements; and the ability to raise sufficient debt and equity for construction of new projects.
26 The capacities in the solar technology included in this report are denominated in MWdc. The capacities in the solar technology projects in the advanced development stages and in the early development stages are about 1,197 MWac and about 1,050 MWac, respectively.
A. During October 2021, early repayment was completed of the full amount of the outstanding credit under Rotem's project financing, in the amount of about NIS 1,292 million (an early repayment fee) and restricted cash was released, in the amount of about NIS 125 million. Rotem recognized a non-recurring expense in the statement of income in the third quarter of 2021, in the aggregate amount of NIS 244 million, in respect of the early repayment fee (about NIS 188 million, net of tax), even though the repayment was completed subsequent to the date of the report. In addition, in October 2021, in light of the early repayment of the balance of Rotem's credit, the Company executed an early close-out of an interest SWAP contract, which yielded the amount of about NIS 13 million to the Company. It is noted that as at September 30, 2021, the balance of the short-term credit in the Interim Statements includes the balance of Rotem's credit prior to execution of the early repayment.
The Company and the additional shareholder in Rotem provided Rotem shareholders' loans for financing part of the amount of the early repayment, in the amount of about NIS 1,130 million, based on their proportionate holdings in Rotem's shares.
It is noted that in December 2020 and in the months January through May 2021, replacement and renovation work was performed with respect to certain components of the gas turbines in the Hadera Power Plant as part of anticipated activities. In this framework, in January 2021, the replacement and renovation work in one of the gas turbines was completed and in May 2021 the replacement and renovation work of the second gas turbine was completed. Accordingly, in the first half of 2021, there were about 65 maintenance days during which the Hadera Power Plant operated on a partial basis. The performances of the gas turbines commencing from the end of the replacement and renovation work are in accordance with that expected from them.
Regarding the maintenance work in the steam turbines, during November 2021 a shut down of the Hadera Power Plant was started for 10 days. In addition, in March 2022, additional maintenance work is expected to be performed in the steam turbine for a period of time estimated at about 60 days. It is noted that performance of the said replacement and renovation work without interruption could be impacted by traffic restrictions resulting from the Coronavirus crisis in light of the need for arrival of equipment and foreign work teams. After performance of the additional maintenance activities in the steam turbine, a further improvement in the plant's performance is expected27 .
27 That stated in Section C. above, including with reference to the execution dates of the maintenance work and the Additional Work, the duration of the work of the said work periods and/or the improvement of the performance of the power plant after execution of the work, includes "forward-looking" information, as it is defined in the Securities Law. The aforesaid information may not be realized, or may be realized in a different manner, including as a result of reasons that are not under Hadera's control, such as coordination with the contractor or equipment supplier, the manner of performance of the work by the contractor, technical breakdowns or other delays, which could impact the duration of the shutdown (full or partial of the power plant), including factors impacted by the Coronavirus crisis. Partial operation or shutdown of the Hadera Power Plant during extended periods of the maintenance, renovation and replacement work count impact Hadera's ability to comply with the power plant's availability (capacity) provisions (regarding this matter – see also Sections 8.10 and 8.12.3 of Part A in the Periodic Report for 2020) and could have a negative impact on the results of Hadera's activities.

C. (Cont.)
For details regarding starting of the arbitration proceedings by Hadera's construction contractor and the contentions of the Company and the construction contractor – see Note 9D(2) to the Interim Statements and the Company's Immediate Report dated September 23, 2021 (Reference No.: 2021-01-148533). As at the publication date of this report, the Company had submitted a response and a counter request to the arbitrators. It is noted that the parties are concurrently carrying on contacts in an effort to formulate a compromise, where as at the publication date of this report there is no certainty regarding the ultimate formulation of a compromise as stated. Up to now, no compensation had been received from the construction contractor in respect of the delay in the commercial operation of Hadera and non-compliance with the performances provided in the construction agreement (except for amounts unilaterally offset by the Company from payments to the construction contractor and the construction contractor has raised contentions regarding this matter). In addition, as at the publication date of this report, no amounts have been received under the insurance policy for damages caused by delay of the commercial operation of the Hadera Power plant. There is no certainty that Hadera will be able to receive reimbursements and/or compensation in respect the full amount of its direct and indirect damages.
D. Further to that stated in Section 8.13.6 to Part A of the Periodic Report for 2020 regarding the anticipated operation date of the Karish natural gas reservoir and possible delay of the said operation date, in November 2021 Energean sent Rotem and Hadera an update notification (further to prior updates) whereby due to a force majeure event, so Energean contends, the first gas from the Karish reservoir is expected in the middle of 202228 .
Due to the delay in supply of the gas from the Karish reservoir compared with the original projected date, Rotem and Hadera will be required to acquire the quantity of gas it had planned to acquire from Energean for purposes of operation of the power plants at the present gas prices, which are provided in the agreements of Rotem and Hadera with Tamar and which are higher than the price stipulated in the Energean agreements. Accordingly, the delays in the commercial operation date of Energean and in supply of the gas from the Karish reservoir will have an unfavorable impact on the Company's profits with reference to the supply from the Karish reservoir on the original date. For additional details, including regarding payment of compensation to Rotem and Hadera in the period of the report – see Note 9D(3) to the Interim Statements.
28 That stated above, including regarding the commercial operation date of the Karish reservoir, and regarding supply of the gas to the Company, includes "forward-looking" information as defined in the Securities Law, which is based on the data received by the Company from Energean as at the publication date of this report and additional publicly-available data, and there is no certainty it will materialize. Ultimately, the expected impact on the project timetables or a delay in the operation date of the Karish reservoir may be delayed beyond the estimated time, and he impacts on the Company could be more than that stated above – this being due to factors that are not under the Company's control. In addition, there is no certainty that additional compensation will be received from Energean and there is no certainty that compensation will be paid to Rotem and Hadera that will cover all of their damages (direct or indirect).

30 For details regarding disputes between Rotem and Israel Electric Company – see that stated in Section 8.4.15 to Part A of the Periodic Report for 2020 and in Note 9E(1) to the Interim Statements. As at the publication date of the report, no understandings have been formulated with reference to the disputes between the parties. As stated in the above-mentioned reports, to the extent understandings are not formulated Israel Electric Company (or the System Administrator, upon its "stepping into the shoes" of Israel Electric Company in the PPA agreement) may start proceedings.
In May 2021, the Electricity Authority published a hearing regarding revision of the standards for purposes of implementation of the market model on the existing private generation and on the renewable energies according to which application of the market rules to the various types of generators is governed, including bilateral generators and generators with fixed availability (capacity) that operate in the framework of Regulation 241, and broad changes are proposed to the market rules31. The Electricity Authority notes in the said hearing that that it is proposed at this stage to exclude from application of the decision the Rotem generation unit, to which a special regulation applies that requires adjustments in a number of aspects, and that the Electricity Authority is presently examining all the changes required in the regulation that applies to this unit in order to create regulatory uniformity between it and the other private generation units, and in this regard it will also include consider application of the market rules to it. The impact of the hearing regarding the market model on Rotem depends on the final arrangements that will be determined (if any).
In June 2021, Rotem was informed that the Professional Staff of the Electricity Authority intends to recommend to grant Rotem a supply license (the language of the license has not yet been disclosed) and at the same time to impose certain covenants on Rotem regarding the generation activities and the supply activities, including an extraordinary consumption format, as noted above32, including arrangement of the manner of applying the above-mentioned market model to Rotem and the manner of determination of the price when generation at the plant is reduced. Based on the information received, the team intends to take action to implement the above-mentioned arrangements, subject to a hearing, from January 2022. Further to that stated, Rotem is taking action with the Electricity Authority in order to clarify and present its position with respect to the said arrangements, including regarding the commencement date. It is clarified that to the best of Rotem's understanding making of a decision regarding the matter is subject to publication of a hearing, which as at the publication date of the report a hearing had not yet been published. Accordingly, as at the date of the report supplementary arrangements, as noted, had not yet been determined, and there is no certainty regarding their final language and the extent of their impact.
32 For additional details regarding the matter of granting a supply license to Rotem and the decision regarding deviation from the consumption plan and its impacts – see Sections 8.12.2, 14.2.6 and 20.3.5 to Part A of the the Periodic Report for 2020.

34 It is clarified that that stated above regarding completion of the project, dates and/or the construction cost constitutes "forward-looking" information, as it is defined in the Securities Law, which is based on estimates and assessments the Company makes as at the publication date of the report and there is no certainty it will be realized. The said information may not be realized or may be realized in a manner different than foreseen, due to, among other things, dependency on various factors, such as, the final scope of the costs in respect of the development and the land, connection to the infrastructure networks and occurrence of any of the risk factors the Company is exposed to. As at the publication date of the report, completion of the project is subject to, among other things, completion of the planning and licensing processes, the proper condition of the construction work and the equipment and completion of a detailed technical coordination regarding connection of the project to the electricity grid. Ultimately, technical breakdowns and/or delays could be caused in the processes relating to construction of the project and/or the Company may be caused to incur additional costs relating to the project beyond the estimates as stated in the Company's Immediate Report dated June 27, 2021 (Reference No.: 2021-01-043576). It is noted that the delay in the commercial operation date (see table above) could impact the ability of the project to comply with its liabilities to third parties in connection with the project.

M. Coronavirus – 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 and it has caused significant business and economic uncertainty and volatility in the global markets, which were partly caused by the preventative measures taken and imposition of restrictions by various governmental entities worldwide. As at the date of the report, the virus is continuing to cause business and economic uncertainty. In the Period of the Report, there is a trend in recovery in the scope of the economic activities throughout the world, including removal of some of the restrictions on movement (travel) and carrying on of business and trade. At the same time, in the period of the report, along with vaccination of the population at high rates, due to the outbreak of new mutations, the virus is continuing to spread at significant rates both in Israel as well as in other countries, and accordingly restrictions are being imposed and may be imposed in the future on movement and on activities. As at the date of the report, up to now the Coronavirus Crisis had not had a significant impact on the Company's results and activities in Israel. Nonetheless, in light of the uncertainty regarding the duration of the Coronavirus crisis, the intensity thereof and its impacts on the markets and factors relating the Company's activities (such as, employees, significant customers, significant suppliers, lenders, etc.), as well as the uncertainty regarding the measures that will be taken by government entities, as at the date of the report, the Company is not able to estimate with any certainty the full impact of the Coronavirus Crisis on the Company. Spread of the virus and infections at the Company's power plants and other sites, continuation of the Coronavirus Crisis for an extended period, a significant impact of the Coronavirus Crisis on main suppliers (such as, suppliers of natural gas, construction and maintenance contractors, etc.) or the Group's main customers, or continuing movement restrictions, could have an unfavorable impact on the Company's activities and results, as well as on its ability to complete construction projects on time or at all and/or on its ability to execute future projects. The Company is continuing to take steps in order to ensure the health and safety of its employees in all of the Company's facilities and offices, to maintain the level of activities in all its various facilities in and outside of Israel in order to reduce the potential impact of the pandemic on its business. For additional details regarding the Coronavirus Crisis and its possible impact on the Company in Israel – see Note 1B to the Interim Statements. For details regarding the impact of the Coronavirus Crisis (according to the contentions of Energean) on the date of the flow of the gas from Karish Tanin reservoir – see Section 3D above.
It is noted that the activities of the Company's active power plants in Israel, as well as the construction activities of the Zomet Power Plant, are continuing in the restrictions' period since they are deemed to be essential activities while preparing the work teams and taking safety measures to prevent infections and outbreaks at the Company's sites. It is further pointed out that the continuity of the construction work on the Zomet Power Plant or the renovation and maintenance work at the Rotem Power Plant and the Hadera Power Plant could be impacted by the traffic (movement) limitations due to the Coronavirus Crisis in light of the need for arrival of equipment and foreign work teams.
For additional details regarding the Company's area of activities in Israel – see below in this Report of the Board of Directors and the notes to the Interim Statements.
A. Further to that stated in Section 17.1.3 to Part A in the Periodic Report for 2020, the electricity price and the natural gas prices (the main fuel of the power plants powered by natural gas of the CPV Group) are main factors in the profitability of the CPV Group, as well as the capacity prices in the activity areas of the CPV Group's power plants. A number of variables impact the profitability of the natural gas-powered power plants of the CPV Group, including the price of various fuels, the weather, load increases and unit capacity, which cumulatively affect the gross margin and the profitability of the CPV Group. The electricity prices in the PJM market were about 65% higher and about 80%–85% in the nine months and three months ended September 30, of 2021, respectively, compared with the corresponding periods in 2020. The electricity prices in the ISO-NE and the NYISO markets were about 95% and about 100%–105% higher in the nine months and three months ended September 30, of 2021, respectively, compared with the corresponding periods in 2020. The average price of natural gas in Henry Hub was about 93% about 120% higher in the nine-month and three-month periods ended September 30, 2021, respectively, than in the corresponding periods in 2020.
In the estimation of the CPV Group, the increase in the price of the natural gas stems from the strengthening of the global demand, which increases the demand for liquid natural gas from the United States, stagnation in the production of natural gas and low inventory levels of natural gas compared with prior years. In general, in the currently existing generation mix, to the extent the gas prices are higher the electricity margins of the CPV Group are expect to be higher, such that the marginal energy prices will be higher and will favorably impact the CPV Group's energy margins38. This impact is partly offset by plans hedging electricity and gas prices in the CPV Group's conventional power plants, which are intended to reduce changes in the gross margin of the CPV Group resulting from changes in the commodity prices in the energy market. The purpose of the hedging plans is to fix the energy margin (in certain scopes that were determined at every date / for every project, based on each project's specific characteristics) through an undertaking in agreements hedging the gas prices and the electricity prices, generally for short periods, as at the publication date of the report mostly up to about one year – this being in the hedging agreements of the RPO type that were signed by some of CPV's power plants and that are intended to assure minimum cash flows for purposes of servicing the debt39. The increase in the prices during the period of the report and thereafter was offset by hedging agreements for the active power plants for 2021. In addition, increase in the forward energy prices led to a request to deposit additional collaterals under the hedging agreements in the Shore, Maryland, Towantic and Fairview power plants, in the cumulative amount of (in respect of 100% of the power plants) of about \$111.5 million as at September 30, 2021, in order to ensure compliance with the liabilities pursuant to the hedging agreements (such as, purchase of gas, sale of electricity and generation activities). For purposes of provision of the additional collaterals working capital credit facilities of the said power plants were utilized. In the estimation of the CPV Group, most of the said collaterals are expected to be released back to the companies up to the second quarter of 202240 .
38 That stated regarding the impacts of the natural gas prices on the profitability of the CPV Group is "forward-looking" information, as it is defined in the Securities Law, which is based on estimates of the CPV Group in accordance with the characteristics of its activities on the publication date of the report only, and there is no certainty it will be realized. That stated could change due to various factors, including factors not under the control of the CPV Group.
39 In some of the existing power plants there are also hedging agreements of the RPO type that were signed as part of the financial closing. For additional details – see Note 3D(7) to the Interim Statements.
40 That stated above regarding release of the collaterals and/or the expected release date constitute "forward-looking" information as it is defined in the Securities Law, which is based on the estimate of the CPV Group as at the date of the report, and regarding which there is no certainty it will be realized. That stated depends on, among other things, the conditions of conditions of the market and/or other arrangements with the parties to the relevant hedging agreements.
In addition to that stated, the CPV Group's profitability is impacted by the capacity of the power plant and as a practical function of the current operation and maintenance work, along with planned and unplanned maintenance. In September 2021, the Valley power plant entered into maintenance work for a period of about 20 days, which had a negative impact on the plant's results.
In the nine months and three months ended on September 30, 2021, the electricity prices rose in the markets in which the CPV Group operates, compared with the corresponding periods last year. Most of the increase stems from an increase in the natural gas prices, an increase in demand in 2021 and relatively hot weather in the summer months.
The following table summarizes the average electricity prices in each of the main markets in which the projects of the CPV Group are active in the nine-month and three-month periods ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. The prices are denominated in dollars per megawatt hour:

42 As determined in capacity tenders in June 2021, as stated in the Report of the Company's Board of Directors dated June 30, 2021 (Reference No.: 2021-01-070297).
41 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. As stated in Section 17.2.1 of Part A of the Periodic Report for 2020, when Towantic entered into the capacity market, the project assured a fixed capacity payment for seven years which is granted to new players. Payment of the capacity, as stated, will apply up to May 2025 and participation is expected in a tender for the period from June 2025 through May 2026, which is expected to be held in the first quarter of 2022.
43 It is noted that an arrangement as stated (to the extent it is determined and subject to the final arrangements) is expected to permit renewable energy projects to enjoy the tax benefits in cash with no need for a Tax Equity partner.
44 The Company's above estimate regarding changes in the area of activities constitutes "forward-looking" information, as it is defined in the Securities Law, which is based solely on the Company's said estimates as at the publication date of the report only and on publicly-known data and which is dependent and contingent on various factors.

In exchange for acquisition of the rights in the Projects, on the completion date of the Acquisition the amount of about \$9 million was paid to the seller, where the transaction includes contingent consideration, which together with the amount paid on the closing date, as stated, could amount to about \$46 million. The contingent consideration is to be paid in increments subject to reaching development milestones in the Projects. Upon their acquisition, the Projects were added to the backlog of development project of the CPV Group using solar technology.
As at the publication date of the report, the Projects hold rights in land and have submitted requests for connection to the grid, and in the estimation of the CPV Group, subject to completion of the various development stages, including assurance of the financing required for the development, they are expected to ripen into the development stage in the second half of 202347 .
The Projects are located in the PJM market.
48 That stated in this Section regarding the estimates of the CPV Group and its plans constitutes, as well as with respect to the expected capacity of the project referred to above, "forward-looking" information and there is no certainty it will materialize. In addition, as at the publication date of the report, there is no certainty regarding participation in the competitive process and/or regarding the expected capacity of the project (if it is ultimately advanced).

47 That stated above with reference to the start date of the construction of the projects constitutes "forward-looking" information as it is defined in the Securities Law, which is based on the estimates of the CPV Group as at the date of the report. Completion of the projects is subject to completion of the development stages, which at the present time have not yet been completed. The development stages include, among other things, completion of the licensing processes, signing agreements with main suppliers (construction contractor and supply of equipment) and with a "tax partner", assurance of connection to the grid and signing a connection agreement and assuring the commercial structure of the Projects.
The construction cost of the project, including initiation fees to the CPV Group estimated at about \$11 million, is about \$257 million. As at the date of this report, the expected cost of the investment in the project has risen compared with the expected cost as at June 30, 2021, where the said increase stems mostly from an increase in the expected costs of the wind turbine for the power plant, shipping and delivery costs, an increase in the construction budget and the costs of upgrading the transmission network. It is noted that part of the increase in the costs of upgrading the transmission network is expected to be compensated for in the framework of the price adjustments in accordance with the price formula in the project's PPA agreement. It is clarified that that stated in the table is subject to additional adjustments, including due to a global increase in the equipment and shipping prices, as is visible in the past months, and/or other costs.
O. The Coronavirus: as stated in Section 17.14.11 to Part A of the Periodic Report for 2020, the spread of the Coronavirus has a significant impact on the business activities in the United States and worldwide. During the Coronavirus crisis, the activities of the power plants of the CPV Group are continuing while making adaptations, such as, changes in the shifts of workers, change in the timetables for performance of the maintenance work, transfer of employees to working remotely, etc. In addition, the CPV Group is continuing to make adaptations for purposes of information security at the power plants. Furthermore, the Coronavirus crisis impacted the availability of suppliers and on the sectors involved in the development activities of the CPV Group. At this date, there is no certainty relating to the duration of the Coronavirus crisis, its force (scope) and its impacts on the markets or on factors relating to CPV's activities, and therefore the CPV Group is not able to estimate with any degree of certainty and completeness the impact of the Coronavirus crisis, and event of the outbreak of the virus and the (possible) spread thereof at the power plants of the CPV Group or restrictions on conducting business in the areas in which it operates, as well as the measures taken and that will be taken worldwide as a result thereof – which has impacted the economy and commodity markets in the U.S., in general, and the prices of electricity and natural gas, in particular – could impact CPV's activities (even significantly), thwart completion of the construction of projects (as detailed in Section 2 above) and the progress of development of the development projects of the CPV Group, and could also impact its ability to actually commence execution of its future projects. For details – see Note 1B to the Interim Statements.
For additional details regarding the area of the Company's activities in the United States – see the Report of the Board of Directors below and the notes to the Interim Statements that are attached to this report.

49 It is emphasized that "adjusted income" as stated in this report is not a recognized data item 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. It is possible that financial indices that are not in accordance with IFRS accounting standards that have similar names are calculated by other companies in a manner different than their calculation by the Company. "Adjusted income" should not be viewed as a substitute for net income attributable to the Company's shareholders prepared (calculated) pursuant to IFRS. It is possible that the Company's definitions of "adjusted income" are different than those used by other companies. In addition, other companies might use other indices for purposes of evaluating their performance, and thereby reducing the comparability of the Company's indices that are not in accordance with IFRS. Nonetheless, the Company believes that the "adjusted income" 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 that 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.

In Israel, the Company's net revenues from the sale of electricity to its private customers stem mainly from electricity sold at the generation component tariffs, as published by the Electricity Authority, with a certain discount from the tariff. The weighted-average generation component tariff for 2021, as published by the Electricity Authority, is NIS 0.2526 per KW hour. This weighted-average is attributed to the mix of consumption in the market, which differs from that of the customers of Rotem and Hadera. In 2020, the weighted-average of the generation component tariff was NIS 0.2678 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 reduction in the generation component has had a negative impact on the Company's income in 2021 compared with 2020.
In addition, in September 2021 the Company commenced supplying electricity to customers through purchase of energy from the System Administrator that was purchased at a tariff that includes a component of the supplier's tariff and SMP in the framework of the virtual supply.

Expenses for infrastructure services – an increase in purchases for private customers, in the amount of about NIS 23 million, as a result of the commercial operation of the Hadera Power Plant in July 2020. On the other hand, there was a decrease, in the amount of about NIS 7 million, due to a decrease in the infrastructure tariffs for 2021 and a decrease due to adjustment of the profile of Rotem customers, in the amount of about NIS 6 million.
(3) Most of the increase stems from current operating costs due to the commercial operation of the Hadera Power Plant.
Expenses for infrastructure services – a decrease of about NIS 9 million relating infrastructure expenses in Rotem due to a decline in the infrastructure tariffs for 2021 and a decline in the scope of consumption of Rotem customers.

The proforma interim financial statements were prepared in accordance with the provisions of Regulation 9A of the Reporting Regulations, and they relate to acquisition of the control of the CPV Group. The proforma interim financial statements are intended to retroactively reflect the consolidated results of the Company's operations and the statement of other comprehensive income for the Proforma Periods under the assumption that the acquisition transaction had been completed on January 1, 2018 based on the actual results of operations as received from the CPV Group – this being based on the assumptions detailed in Note 3 to the proforma interim financial statements. These explanations should be read carefully together with the proforma interim financial statements attached to this report. It is clarified that the proforma statements do not reflect the Company's actual results but, rather, they were prepared in order to provide additional information – this being on the basis of various assumptions and estimates as detailed in the proforma statements. The data is presented in millions of New Israeli Shekels.

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.

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's interim consolidated financial statements as of September 30 2021 include those of the Company and its subsidiaries as well as interests in associates (hereinafter, collectively - the "Group").
The Company is a publicly-traded company whose securities are traded on the TASE. As at the date of the report (commencing from January 2021), the Group is engaged in two reportable segments: (1) generation and supply of electricity and energy in Israel; and (2) maintenance, development, construction and management of renewable energy and conventional (gas-fired) power plants in the United States. In these segments, the Group is engaged in generation and supply of electricity and energy to private customers, Israel Electric Corporation Ltd. (hereinafter – "the IEC") and 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 Israel Energy Ltd. (hereinafter - "OPC Israel"), and its operations in the United States under another operational roof through the CPV Group (as defined in Note 6).
In Israel, the Group operates the Rotem Power Plant through OPC. Rotem Ltd. (hereinafter – "Rotem") (which is held by the OPC Israel (80%) and by another shareholder (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 Israel, uses cogeneration technology and has an installed capacity of 144 MW. Furthermore, Hadera holds the Energy Center (boilers and turbines on the site of Hadera Paper Ltd. (hereinafter - "Hadera Paper"), which serves as backup for the supply of steam. In addition, OPC Israel 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. Furthermore, the Company is working to construct and operate facilities for generation of energy on the consumer's premises, which generate electricity using natural gas and renewable energy and enters into arrangements for supply and sale of energy to consumers; in addition, the Company entered into an agreement to supply the equipment to, construct, operate and maintain the Sorek B energy facility and to supply the energy required by the Sorek B desalination facility, as stated in Note 24A(10) 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 private electricity generators.
The Group's activity is subject to seasonal fluctuations 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, the Group operates - through the CPV Group, 70% of which is (indirectly) held by the Company - conventional power plants, power plants powered by natural gas (advanced generation combined cycle) and in the area of renewable energy. As at the approval date of the financial statements, CPV'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 power plant).
In addition, the CPV Group holds rights to gas-fired and solar power plants that are under construction, with a capacity of approximately 1,258 MW and 126 MW, respectively (CPV's share as at the approval date of the financial statements is approximately 126 MW and 126 MW, respectively). Furthermore, the CVP Group has a backlog of projects with various technologies under development with a total capacity of 7,092 to 7,492 MW.
electricity 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 power plants powered by natural gas, there is higher profitability in seasons where temperatures are at their highest or lowest - usually during summer and winter.
Due to the spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19) (hereinafter - "the coronavirus crisis") in 2020 as well as during the reporting period and thereafter, movement restrictions and restrictions on business activity were imposed by the State of Israel and countries throughout the world. In addition, the said Coronavirus Crisis has caused, among other things, uncertainty and instability in the Israeli and global financial markets and economy.
The operation of the Company's active power plants in Israel, as well as the construction of the Zomet power plant, have continued throughout the restriction period, due to their designation as "essential enterprises", while safeguarding the work teams and taking precautionary measures in order to prevent outbreak and spread of the infection at the Company's sites. The continuity of the construction work on the Zomet power plant or the renovation and maintenance work at the Rotem and Hadera power plants might be impacted by movement restrictions due to the Coronavirus Crisis, in light of the need for the arrival of equipment and foreign work teams. As at the financial statements approval date, the Coronavirus Crisis has not had a material impact on the Company's results of operations and its activity in Israel.
Spread of the virus and infections at the Company's power plants and other sites, continuation of the Coronavirus Crisis for an extended period, a material impact of the Coronavirus Crisis on main suppliers (such as suppliers of natural gas, construction and maintenance contractors) or the Group's main customers, or protracted movement restrictions, may adversely affect the Company's activities and performance in Israel, as well as its ability to complete construction projects on time or at all and/or on its ability to execute future projects in Israel.
As of financial statements' approval date, the pandemic continues causing business and economic uncertainty. During the reporting period, there was a trend of recovery in the volume of economic activity worldwide, including lifting of some of the movement restrictions, reopening of businesses and commerce. At the same time, as of the financial statements approval date, alongside high vaccination rates - due to the outbreak of new strains - the pandemic continues to spread significantly in Israel and other countries, and accordingly, movement restrictions and restrictions on activities have been imposed and may be imposed in the future on activities.
The spread of the Coronavirus has had a significant impact on economic activity in the USA and around the world. The activity of the CPV Group's power plants continued despite the Coronavirus Crisis, with adjustments being made as stated below. The Coronavirus Crisis resulted in a change in the work schedules and shifts of the employees of the CPV Group, a reduction of self-initiated shutdowns for purposes of periodic maintenance, extension of the unplanned periodic maintenance period, adaptations on the part of the Group to employees working from home and other workplace adjustments. In addition, the Group was and continues to be required to make adjustments relating to information security at the power plants. Moreover, the Coronavirus Crisis affects the availability of suppliers and parties involved in the development and construction processes of the projects of the CPV Group.
It is noted that, as of the approval date of the financial statements, there is no certainty as to the duration of the Coronavirus Crisis, its scope and impact on the markets or parties relating to the CPV Group's activity, and therefore - the CPV Group is unable to assess with any degree of certainty and completeness the impact of the Coronavirus Crisis. The outbreak of the virus and the (possible) spread thereof at the power plants of the CPV Group or restrictions on business activity in the areas in which it operates - as well as the measures that shall be taken worldwide as a result, impact on the economy and commodity markets in the U.S. in general, and on the prices of electricity and natural gas in particular – could impact CPV's activity (even materially), thwart the completion of the project under construction (as detailed in Note 7A) and delay advancement of CPV's projects under development, as well as impact the ability to execute its future projects.
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 financial statements for the year ended December 31 2020 (hereinafter – "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 November 25, 2021.
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, except as stated below.
the Group makes estimates with respect to allocation of excess cost to tangible and intangible assets and to liabilities. In addition, when determining the depreciation rates of the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities, the Group estimates the expected life of the asset or liability. These estimates are based on, among other things, an independent appraiser.
During the reporting period, the Company classified transaction expenses in respect of the CPV Group acquisition and expenses for an early repayment fee - which were previously stated under the business development expenses line item and under the finance expenses line item, respectively - to two separate line items in the income statement. Accordingly, the Company reclassified from the business development line items to the expenses in respect of the CPV Group acquisition a total of NIS 4 million for the nine- and three-month periods ended September 30, 2020. In addition, the Company reclassified from the finance expenses line item to the early repayment line item a total of NIS 41 million for the year ended December 31, 2020.

The Group applies the acquisition method to all business combinations. The acquisition date is the date on which the acquirer obtains control over the acquiree. Control exists when the Group is exposed, or has rights to variable returns from its involvement with the acquiree and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the acquiree. When testing for control, substantive rights held by the Group and others are taken into account. On acquisition date, the acquirer recognizes a contingent liability assumed in a business combination if there is a present obligation resulting from past events and its fair value can be reliably measured. The consideration transferred includes the fair value of the assets transferred to the previous owners of the acquiree, the liabilities incurred by the acquirer to the previous owners of the acquiree as well as equity interests issued by the Group. In addition, goodwill is not updated in respect of utilization of tax loss carryforwards that existed on the date of the business combination.
Costs associated with the acquisition incurred by the acquirer in respect of a business combination, such as: brokers' commissions, consultants' fees, legal fees, valuations and other fees and commissions relating to professional services or consulting services, except for those relating to issuance of debt or equity instruments in connection with the business combination, are recognized as expenses in the period in which the services were received.
The Group recognizes goodwill on acquisition date according to the fair value of the consideration transferred less the net amount of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. Goodwill is initially recognized as an asset based on its cost, and in subsequent periods, is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses.
To test for impairment, goodwill is allocated to each of the Group's cash-generating units that is expected to benefit from the synergy of the business combination. Cash-generating units to which goodwill was allocated are tested for impairment each year, or more frequently if there are indications of a possible impairment of the unit, as stated. Where the recoverable amount of a cash-generating unit is lower than the carrying mount of that cash-generating unit, the impairment loss is first allocated to the reduction of the carrying amount of any goodwill attributed to that cash-generating unit. Thereafter, the balance of the impairment loss, if any, is allocated to other assets of the cash-generating unit, pro rata to their carrying amounts. A goodwill impairment loss is not reversed in subsequent periods.
Associates are entities in which the Group has significant influence, but not control or joint control, over the financial and operating policies. Significant influence is the power to participate in making decisions relating to the financial and operational policies of the investee company. In testing for significant influence, potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible into shares of the investee are taken into account.
Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method and are initially recognized at cost. The investment cost includes transaction costs. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to an expected acquisition of an associate are recognized as an asset under the deferred expenses line item in the statement of financial position. These costs are added to the investment cost on the acquisition date. The consolidated financial statements include the Group's share of the income and expenses in profit or loss and of other comprehensive income of associates, after adjustments to align the accounting policies with those of the Group, from the date that significant influence commences until the date that significant influence ceases. Where the Group disposes of part of an investment that is an associate that includes foreign operations while maintaining significant influence, the proportionate part of the cumulative amount of the exchange rate differences is reclassified to the statement of income.
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on acquisition, are translated to NIS at exchange rates in effect at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations are translated to NIS at exchange rates in effect at the transaction dates. Foreign exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income and are presented in equity in the foreign operations translation reserve (hereinafter – "translation reserve"). When the foreign operation is not a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, the pro rata share of the foreign operation translation difference is allocated to the non-controlling interests.
Generally, foreign exchange rate differentials from loans received from or provided to a foreign operation, including foreign operations that are subsidiaries, are recognized in profit or loss in the consolidated financial statements.
When the settlement of loans received from or provided to a foreign operation is neither planned nor likely in the foreseeable future, gains and losses from foreign exchange rate differentials arising from these monetary items are included in the investment in the foreign operation, net, and are recognized in other comprehensive income and stated in equity under the translation reserve.
The fair value of the amount due to employees in respect of the cash-settled rights to participate in CPV Group's earnings, is recognized as an expense against a corresponding increase in the liability, over the period in which unconditional entitlement to payment is achieved. The liability is remeasured at each reporting date until the settlement date. Any change in the fair value of the liability is recognized as a general and administrative expense in profit and loss.
The Amendment replaces certain classification requirements of current or non-current liabilities. For example, pursuant to the amendment, a liability will be classified as non-current if an entity has the right to defer the payment for a period of at least 12 months after the reporting period, which is "substantive" and exists at the end of the reporting period. A right exists as at the reporting date only if an entity is in compliance with the conditions for deferment of the payment as at that date. In addition, the amendment clarifies that a conversion right of a liability will affect its classification as current or non-current, unless the conversion component is capital-based.
The Amendment will become effective for reporting periods commencing on January 1 2023. Early application is permissible. The Amendment is to be applied retrospectively, including adjustment of the comparative data.
The Group has yet to begin examining the ramifications of the amendment's application for the financial statements.
The amendment revokes 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. Rather, the said proceeds are to be recognized in profit and loss in accordance with the relevant standards and the cost of the items sold is to be measured pursuant to the measurement requirements of IAS 2 - "Inventory".
The amendment will enter into effect for reporting periods commencing on January 1 2022 or thereafter. Early application is permissible. The amendment is to be applied retrospectively, including revision of the comparative data, 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. The cumulative effect of the amendment will adjust the opening balance of the retained earnings of the earliest reporting period presented.
The Group has considered the potential effect of the application of the standard and is of the opinion that such application is not expected to have a material effect on the financial statements.
The amendment reduces the applicability of the exemption from recognition of deferred taxes as a result of temporary differences created on the date of initial recognition of assets and/or liabilities, such that the said exemption will not apply to transactions that give rise to equal and offsetting temporary differences. As a result, entities will be required to recognize a deferred tax asset or liability in respect of such temporary differences on the date of initial recognition of transactions that give rise to equal and offsetting temporary differences, such as lease transactions and provisions for dissolution and rehabilitation.
The amendment will be applied as of the annual reporting period starting on January 1 2023, by adjusting the opening balance of the retained earnings or as an adjustment to another capital line item in the period in which the amendment was adopted. Early application is permissible.
The Group has not yet begun to examine the effects of the amendment on the financial statements.
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, trade payables and other payables, and some of the Group's long-term loans are the same as or approximate to their fair values.
The fair values of the other financial assets and financial liabilities, together with the carrying amounts stated in the statement of financial position, are as follows:

(*) Includes current maturities and interest payable.
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 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.
In addition, in the reporting period, the following loans were added to the Group: loans used to acquire the CPV Group, a loan that was consolidated for the first time as part of the business combination, as well as a loan obtained under Keenan's new financing agreement. These loans are the same or approximate to their fair value in light of the variable interest rates on some of the loans.

Further to that which is stated in Note 25L to the annual financial statements, on January 25 2021, the acquisition of 70% of the rights and holdings in the CPV Group (hereinafter – "the Transaction Completion Date") was completed. The acquisition was executed through a limited partnership, CPV Group LP (hereinafter – "the Acquirer"), which is held, indirectly, by the Company (approximately 70% by the limited partner). The acquired CPV Group entities are: CPV Power Holdings LP (hereinafter – "CPVPH"); Competitive Power Ventures Inc. (hereinafter – "CPVI"); and CPV Renewable Energy Company Inc. (hereinafter – "CPVREC") (CPVPH, CPVI and CPVREC will be jointly referred to hereinafter as – the "CPV Group").
The CPV Group is engaged in the development, construction and management of power plants using renewable energy and conventional energy (power plants powered by natural gas of the advanced-generation combined-cycle type) in the United States through subsidiaries and associates. The CPV Group holds rights in active power plants that it developed and constructed – both in the area of conventional energy and in the area of renewable energy. In addition, through an asset management group, the CPV Group is engaged in provision of management services to US-based power plants using a range of technologies and fuel types, by means of signing asset-management agreements, usually for short to medium terms.
On the Transaction Completion Date, in accordance with the mechanism for determination of the consideration as defined in the acquisition agreement, the Acquirer paid the Sellers a consideration that was set at the total amount of about USD 648 million (constituting an acquisition price of USD 630 million with certain adjustments to working capital, the cash balance and debt balance), and approximately USD 5 million for a deposit in the same amount, which remains in the CPV Group. In May 2021, the consideration for the CPV Group acquisition transaction was adjusted, as a result of which the Sellers paid CPV Group an immaterial amount. It is noted that, in respect of 17.5% of the rights to the Three Rivers project under construction (hereinafter – the "Project under Construction"), a sellers' loan, in the amount of USD 95 million (hereinafter – the "Seller's Loan") was granted to CPVH. The Seller's Loan is for a period of up to two years from the Transaction Completion Date, bears an annual interest of 4.5%, which is to be paid quarterly and secured by a lien on shares of the holding company that owns the rights to the Project under Construction and rights pursuant to the management agreement of the Project under Construction. For details regarding changes in the holdings in the Project under Construction and in the Seller's Loan in the reporting period – see Note 7A.
The Company partially hedged its exposure to changes in the cash flows from payments in dollars in connection with the agreement for acquisition of the CPV Group by means of forward transactions and dollar deposits. The Company chose to designate the forward transactions as an accounting hedge. On the Transaction Completion Date, the Company recorded an amount of approximately NIS 103 million that was accrued in a hedge capital reserve to the investment cost in the CPV Group. This cost was recorded under the goodwill line item and increased the acquisition cost by approximately USD 32 million.
The contribution of the CPV Group to the Group's income and loss from the acquisition date until September 30 2021 amounted to NIS 123 million and NIS 84 million, respectively. Management estimates that had the acquisition taken place as early as January 1 2021, the revenue amount in the consolidated statement of income for the nine-month period ended September 30 2021 would have been NIS 1,163 million and the consolidated loss for that period would have been NIS 209 million.
Determination of fair value of assets and liabilities identifiable as of the acquisition date:
The acquisition of the CPV Group was accounted for according to the provisions of IFRS 3 - "Business Combinations". Thus, on the Transaction Completion Date, the Company included the net assets of the CPV Group in accordance with the fair value.
Set forth below is the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired:
| In NIS million | ||
|---|---|---|
| (translated) | In USD million | |
| Cash and cash equivalents | 94 | 29 |
| Trade and other receivables | 50 | 15 |

| Hedging costs | 103 | 32 |

| 2,140 | 656 |
Goodwill created as part of the business combination reflects the potential of future activities of the CPV Group in the market in which it operates. The Group expects that part of the goodwill will be allowed as a deduction for tax purposes. Due to the acquisition, goodwill was recognized as follows:
| In NIS million (translated) |
In USD million | |
|---|---|---|
| Consideration paid | 2,131 | 653 |
| Plus hedging costs | 103 | 32 |
| Less fair value of the identifiable assets, net | (1,895) | (581) |
| Goodwill | 339 | 104 |
In the reporting period and in 2020, the Group incurred legal expenses and due diligence costs attributable to the acquisition totaling approximately NIS 2 million and NIS 42 million, respectively. These costs were recorded in the statement of income in the said periods under the "Transaction expenses in respect of acquisition of the CPV Group" line item.
The CPV Group holds rights in active power plants and in power plants under construction and under development – both in the conventional and renewable energy areas, through subsidiaries and associates. Set forth below are details regarding the main projects held through the subsidiaries of the CPV Group. For details relating to major projects held by associates of the CPV Group – see Note 7.

(1) Three Rivers is a project under construction, the commercial operation date of which is expected to be in the second quarter of 2023 and the total construction cost (in respect of 100% of the project) is expected to amount to approximately NIS 4,175 million (approximately USD 1,293 million).
Further to what is stated regarding the purchase of CPV Group in Note 25L to the Annual Financial Statements, on February 3 2021 the sale of 7.5% of the Three Rivers project was closed in consideration for USD 41 million (which were used to partly repay the seller's loans). As a result of the sale, the CPV Group did not record any gain or loss. The Seller's Loan continued to stand with respect to the amount of approximately USD 54 million (approximately NIS 176 million) in connection with the consideration for 10% of the rights in Three Rivers held by the CPV Group, pursuant to the terms and conditions stated in Note 6 until its full repayment, which took place in October 2021, subsequent to balance sheet date.

Each CPV associate (hereinafter - the "Project Companies") has taken out senior debt under similar outlines - per-project, per-asset financing, at non-recourse terms. On financial closing of each loan, debt and equity capital is committed in an amount sufficient to cover the project's projected capital costs during construction, along with ancillary credit facilities. The ancillary credit facilities are provided by a subset of the project's lenders and are comprised of letter of credit (LC) facilities, which support collateral obligations under the financing arrangements and commercial arrangements, and a working capital revolver facility, which supports the project's ancillary credit needs. The senior credit facilities are generally structured such that, subject to certain conditions precedent, they transform from facilities to finance the construction phase to long-term facilities (term loans) with maturity dates generally tied to the term of the commercial agreements anchoring projected operating cash flows of each project. For the gas-fired projects, the term loans generally span the construction period plus 5-7 years after launch of commercial operation (hereinafter – "mini-perm financing"). The mini-perm financing is repaid based on a combination of repayment dates and result-based metrics, which in the aggregate, result in partial repayment during the loan term, with a balance payable or refinanced upon final repayment date.
The CPV Group seeks to take advantage of opportunities to recycle its credit according to market conditions and, in any case, prior to the scheduled final repayment date. As a rule, the credit facilities in place during construction are sourced from a consortium of international lenders (10 to 20 for each gas-fired project, fewer for renewable energy projects with lower capital needs) on the "Term Loan A" market, which is substantially comprised of commercial banks, investment banks, institutional lenders, insurance companies, international funds, and equipment suppliers' credit affiliates. The Project Companies have refinanced loans for certain gas-fired projects in both the Term Loan A market and the Term Loan B market, which includes mainly institutional lenders, international funds, and a number of commercial banks.
While the credit facility terms and conditions have certain provisions specific to the project being financed, an overwhelming majority of the standard key terms and conditions (first lien security, covenants, events of default, equity cure rights, distribution restrictions, reserve requirements, etc.) are similar across the Project Companies Term Loan A refinancing, while the Term Loan B market refinancing terms are slightly less restrictive, as customary in this market. In each market and often within each project loan, lenders extended loans to CPV's projects either according to a credit spread based on the LIBOR variable base interest rate or fixed interest. To minimize exposure to potential interest rate risk, the Project Companies execute interest rate hedges for the main exposure at each project level, whereby the Project Companies pay the major financial institutions fixed rate interest and receive variable interest payments for certain terms, according to the terms and conditions of the project and loan. For the LIBOR-based loans, the credit agreements and interest rate hedging arrangements include market-standard provisions to accommodate the eventual replacement of LIBOR as a benchmark interest rate.
Set forth below is a summary the main commercial terms and conditions of the key senior debt facilities of the CPV Group's Project Companies. The balances are presented in millions of dollars, represent 100% of the outstanding debt of each Project Company, including payable interest, and include fair value adjustments that were made on the acquisition date of the CPV Group. The loan amounts under the term loans are presented as at the date noted, and to the extent they are withdrawn and repaid, they may not be withdrawn again.
It is noted that the main financing agreements include, among other things, non-standard terms and conditions that are customary in agreements for projects of this type, provisions regarding mandatory prepayments, various grounds for repayment, fees and commissions in respect of credit facilities, annual fees and commissions relating to the issuance of LC and additional customary terms and conditions. In addition, as part of the financing agreements, collateral have been provided and liens were placed on all the project assets. It is further noted that as at the financial statements approval date, there are no grounds for calling any of the financing agreements for immediate repayment.

As a rule, each of the Project Companies in the CPV Group entered into an agreement with all other owners of rights to the project (if any), for the establishment of a limited liability company; the agreement sets forth each partner's rights and obligations with respect to the applicable project (each, hereinafter - an "LLC Agreement"). Most LLC Agreements contain customary provisions for agreements of this type restricting the transfer of rights, including terms and conditions for permissible transfers, minimum equity percentage transfer requirements and rights of first offer. CPV is often obliged to maintain at least a minimum ten percent equity ownership in a Project Company for up to five years after closing of construction financing. Each Project Company is governed by a board of directors selected by the Partners. Certain material decisions typically require unanimous approval by all partners, including, inter alia, declaring insolvency, liquidation, sale of assets or merger, entering into or amending material agreements, taking on debt, initiating or settling litigation, engaging critical service providers, approving the annual budget or making expenditures exceeding the budget, and adopting hedging strategies and risk management policies. The Project Companies of the CPV Group do not have employees. All the Project Companies of the CPV Group are operated by means of a series of agreements, inter alia as detailed in this section below.
All active conventional projects trade and participate in the sale of capacity, electricity and ancillary services in their respective ISO or RTO. Typically, every day the Project Companies conduct the process of forecasting and planning for the next operating day. After making preparations in terms of purchasing adequate natural gas to support the expected electricity generation activity, as needed, offers are submitted to the Day-Ahead market. In addition, revisions are made throughout the day for actual operations occurring that day (the real-time market), which include purchases and sales of natural gas and optimizing generation output based on the real-time market price. Natural gas projects have hedging plans that are designed to set a fixed margin for electricity and reduce the impact of fluctuations in gas and electricity prices.
Fairview, Maryland and Valley entered into economic hedging agreements on the electricity margins of the revenue put option (hereinafter - "RPO") type. The RPO is intended to provide the companies a minimum margin from the sale of electricity on the market for the duration of the agreement. Calculation of the amount of the minimum margin is determined on the basis of a contractual year where the actual settlement dates take place every three months in respect of a partial amount and an annual adjustment is made to the calculation of the total annual margin each year. For purposes of calculating the minimum margin, the agreement makes use of specific parameters, such as utilization, expected generation levels, electricity and gas prices and other specific operating costs for the project. The RPO periods are until May 31 2025 for Fairview, until February 28 2022 for Maryland and until May 31 2023 for Valley.

As a result of acquisition of the CPV Group in January 2021 (as stated in Note 6), which is engaged in development, construction and management of renewable energy and conventional (advanced-generation, gas-fired combined-cycle power plants) in the United States, as of the first quarter of 2021 the Group presents two geographic activity segments that constitute strategic business units of the Group. 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 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:

| Tranche 4 | After 48 months will have elapsed from the allotment date | After 24 months will have elapsed from the vesting date |
The exercise price of each allocated option is NIS 34.46 (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 the date of approval of the allotment by the Board of Directors, using the Black and Scholes model, is NIS 9.54 per option. The calculation is based on a monthly standard deviation of 35%, an annual risk-free interest rate for the period of 0.35% to 0.59% an expected life of 4 to 6 years and a closing price of the share on the last trading day prior to the date of the decision of the Board of Directors of NIS 33.05.

In August 2021, the Compensation Committee, authorized by the Board of Directors, approved a private placement to two officers, amounting to 662,944 options convertible into 662,944 ordinary shares of NIS 0.01 par value each of the Company (hereinafter - "Offered Securities"). The Offered Securities were allocated under the capital gains track (with a trustee) in accordance with Section 102 of the Income Tax Ordinance, at four equal tranches. The vesting terms and conditions and the expiration dates of the Options are as follows:
| Tranche No. | Vesting terms and conditions | Expiration date | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tranche 1 | After 12 months will have elapsed from the allotment date | After 36 months will have elapsed from the vesting date | ||
| Tranche 2 | After 24 months will have elapsed from the allotment date | After 24 months will have elapsed from the vesting date | ||

| Tranche 4 | After 48 months will have elapsed from the allotment date | After 24 months will have elapsed from the vesting date |
The exercise price of each allocated option is NIS 30.24 (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 8.23 per option. The calculation is based on the monthly standard deviation of 34.59%, an annual risk-free interest rate for the period of 0.24% to 0.55%, an expected life of 4 to 6 years and share price of a Company's stock on August 19 2021, which was NIS 28.98.
The cost of the benefit implicit in the offered securities, which is based on the fair value as at the date of their issuance, amounted to approximately NIS 5 million. This amount will be recorded in profit and loss over the vesting period of each tranche.

Transfer of ICG Energy to the Company was approved by the Company's Board of Directors and Audit Committee as a transaction that is only for the Company's benefit, pursuant to Section 1(2) of the Companies Regulations (Expedients in Transactions with an Interested Party), 2000.

The loan is denominated in shekels, is not linked to the CPI and bears interest at the annual rate of 7%. The loan principal will be repayable at any time that will be agreed on between the parties, but no later than January 2028. Accrued interest is payable on a quarterly basis. To the extent the payment made by ICG Energy is lower than the amount of the accrued interest, the payment in respect of the balance will be postponed to the next quarter, but not later than January 2028.

In August 2021, Zomet was notified of the rejection of its legal appeal by ILA and as of the financial statements approval date, Zomet intends to continue the appeals proceedings on the assessment and in this context, submitted an appraiser's appeal in November 2021.
Due to maintenance works in the steam turbine, in November 2021, the Hadera Power Plant was shut down for 10 days. In addition, in March 2022, additional maintenance work is expected to be performed on the steam turbine, for a period estimated at 60 days.
In September 2021, the construction contractor started an arbitration procedure against Hadera in the International Court of Arbitration (ICC), after the period of negotiations prior to instigating arbitration procedures, as set out in Hadera's construction agreement, has elapsed. The contractor's claims are similar in nature to the claims described above, including a claim for payments totalling USD 14 million (as stated in Note 25D to the Annual Financial Statements) for meeting milestones (that Hadera has unilaterally offset against LDs), net of any compensation in respect of LDS which the construction contractor may be required to pay as a result of the arbitration process; additional consideration totalling EUR 7 million in respect of work; a claim by the construction contractor to the effect that it may reduce the amount of guarantees it provided in favor of Hadera, as well as certain declarative remedies.
Hadera disputes the claims of the construction contractor (except in respect of an insignificant amount out of said claim, relative to EUR 7 million), and his claims were rejected by it even prior to receiving the Contractor's said notice. It is Hadera's position, according to the power plant's construction agreement and based on the position of its legal counsel, that it is entitled to LDs and damages (limited to an amount up to the maximum specified in the construction agreement) for non-compliance with conditions set out in the agreement in connection with the performance of the power plant. The total amount in respect of all of the above grounds for compensation is capped at USD 36 million (which includes the offset payments as described in Note 25D to the Annual Financial Statements). As of the report date, the Company filed a response to the construction contractor's application, and a counter-application to the Arbitration Institution. It should be noted that, at the same time, the parties are holding negotiations in an attempt to formulate a compromise, although at this point, the formulation of a compromise remains uncertain.
It should be noted that the agreements with Energean stipulate limited compensation for such delays; the amount of compensation as per the said agreements depends on the reason for the delay, and the compensation cap is lower if the delay is caused by a force majeure event (in accordance with the terms and conditions stipulated in the Agreement).
As of the report approval date, Rotem and to Hadera were paid the reduced compensation amount in respect of the delay in commercial operation - NIS 9 million (approximately USD 3 million) and NIS 7 million (approximately USD 2 million), respectively. The said amount was offset from the cost of the sales. As of the financial statements approval date, as aforesaid, Energean claims that the delay stems from a force majeure; Rotem and Hadera have informed Energean they are rejecting its claims and that they reserve the rights in connection with the delay in accordance with their agreements with Energean.
Further to that stated in Note 24A(6) to the Annual Financial Statements, in January 2021, the Subcommittee for Comments and Objections of the National Planning and Building Committee of the National Infrastructures Committee held a discussion regarding comments and objections with respect to NIP 94. The objections to the plan were rejected, and AGS Rotem Ltd. was requested to make technical revisions to the provisions of the plan, which were made in the beginning of March 2021. Approval of NIP 94 (if approved) is subject to final approval by the National Infrastructures Committee in accordance with the above decision of the National Committee and the National Infrastructures Committee, and approval to proceed with validation by the government of Israel.
Further to what is stated in Note 24A9 to the Annual Financial Statements regarding the environmental impact survey of OPC Hadera Expansion Ltd. (hereinafter - "Hadera Expansion"), in February 2021 National Infrastructure Plan 20B was submitted for review by the District Committees and the Committee for Public Scrutiny; in May and June 2021 two discussions were held which were attended by an investigator appointed for that purpose by the National Infrastructures Committee (hereinafter – the "Committee"). In November 2021, subsequent to the report date, a subcommittee of the Committee for Public Scrutiny published a decision whereby if the plenary (full) Committee will decide that the plan complies with the principles provided by the National Committee and that based on all of the considerations it should be submitted for Government approval, the Committee is deciding to recommend to the plenary Committee to adopt the recommendations of the investigator and to submit the plan for Government approval subject to supplementations and technical revisions to the plan documents.
Furthermore, subsequent to the report date, in October 2021, Hadera Expansion informed Hadera Paper of the extension of the option period through 2022.

Sorek 2 also entered into an agreement for the supply of a gas turbine to the energy generation facility with companies of the General Electric group (hereinafter jointly - "GE"). As part of the agreement, GE has undertaken, inter alia, to supply the turbine and related equipment, to provide support to the Construction Contractor, as well as commissioning and testing the equipment, all in accordance to the terms, milestones and dates agreed between the parties (hereinafter - "the Equipment Supply Agreement"). Pursuant to the agreement between the parties, once the limited notice to proceed (LNTP) was issued and the first payment to GE was made the Equipment Supply Agreement was assigned to the Construction Contractor in the aforesaid Construction Agreement.
Subsequently, in July 2021, an agreement was signed that regulates the decision-making process and the assignment of responsibility between Sorek 2 and the said corporation of the IDE Group in connection with the Construction Agreement; except for cases provided for in the Agreement, the arrangements are mainly derived from each party's part in the Construction Agreement and the joint decision mechanism.

The Maintenance Agreement includes provisions regarding agreed and capped compensation in respect of execution and meeting timetables for servicing, and regarding GE's responsibility for its equipment and services. The Maintenance Agreement includes guarantees provided by the Parent Company to secure each of the parties' undertakings. It should be noted that the above agreements will require, among other things, the approval of the Water Desalination Administration, in accordance with and as required pursuant to the concession agreement signed between IDE and the State of Israel in connection with the desalination facility and the project.

We have reviewed the accompanying proforma financial information of OPC Energy Ltd. (hereinafter – "the Company") and its subsidiaries, including the condensed consolidated interim proforma statements of income and comprehensive income for the nine-month and three-month periods ended September 30, 2021. The Board of Directors and Management are responsible for the preparation and presentation of proforma financial information for these interim periods in accordance with Regulation 38B of the Securities Regulations (Periodic and Immediate Reports), 1970. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the proforma financial information for these interim periods based on our review.
We conducted our review in accordance with Review Standard (Israel) 2410 "Review of Financial Information for Interim Periods 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 less 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 be identified 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 above-mentioned proforma financial information is not complete, in all material respects, in accordance with the provisions of Regulation 38B of the Securities Regulations (Periodic and Immediate Reports), 1970 – this being on the basis of the proforma assumptions detailed in Note 3.

The accompanying notes to the proforma consolidated interim financial statements are an integral part thereof.
In October 2020, an agreement was signed (hereinafter – "the Acquisition Agreement") whereby the Company will acquire (indirectly) from entities in the Global Infrastructure Management LLC Group (hereinafter – "the Sellers"), 70% of the rights and holdings in the following entities: CPV Power Holdings LP (hereinafter – "CPVPH"); Competitive Power Ventures Inc. (hereinafter – "CPVI"); and CPV Renewable Energy Company Inc. (hereinafter – "CPVREC") (CPVPH, CPVI and CPVREC will be referred to hereinafter together as – "the CPV Group").

The CPV Group holds rights, mainly through associated companies, in active power plants that it initiated and developed – both in the area of conventional energy and in the area of renewable energy. In addition, through an asset management group the CPV Group is engaged in provision of management services to power plants in the United States using a range of technologies and fuel types, by means of signing asset-management agreements, usually for short/medium periods. The acquisition was made through a limited partnership.

The balance of the amount was financed from the Company's own sources.
The completion date of the transaction, which was subject to preconditions and receipt of various regulatory approvals, took place on January 25, 2021.
On the Transaction Completion Date, in accordance with the mechanism for determination of the consideration as defined in the Acquisition Agreement, the Buyer paid the Sellers the amount of about \$648 million (\$ = U.S. dollar (hereinafter – "the Dollar")) (which constitutes the acquisition price of about \$630 million and certain adjustments to working capital, the cash balance and the debt balance), and the amount of about \$5 million with respect to a deposit in the same amount remaining in the CPV Group. It is noted that in respect of an interest of 17.5% in the rights in Three Rivers, a project under construction (hereinafter – "the Project Under Construction"), a seller's loan was provided to CPVH, in the amount of \$95 million (hereinafter – "the Seller's Loan"). The Seller's Loan is for a period of up to two years from the closing date of the transaction, bears interest at the annual rate of 4.5%, which is to be paid on a quarterly basis, and is secured by a lien on shares of a holding company that owns the rights in the project under construction and rights in the framework of a management agreement for the project under construction. On February 3, 2021, sale of 7.5% of the rights in CPV Three Rivers LLC (hereinafter – "Three Rivers") was completed, for a consideration of about \$41 million (which served for repayment of part of the Seller's Loan). As a result of the sale, the CPV Group did not realize and gain or loss. The Seller's Loan continues to exist with respect to the amount of about \$54 million (about NIS 181 million) in connection with the consideration relating to 10% of the rights in Three Rivers that is held by the CPV Group, pursuant to certain conditions and up to final repayment, which fell in October 2021. It is noted that the transaction costs for acquisition of the CPV Group amounted to a total of about NIS 44 million.
The Company partially hedged its exposure to changes in the cash flows from payments in dollars in connection with the acquisition agreement by means of forward transactions. The Company chose to designate the forward transactions as an accounting hedge. In addition, on the completion date of the transaction the Buyer provided guarantees in place of the guarantees provided by the Sellers prior to the completion date of the transaction in favor of third parties in connection with projects of the CPV Group that are in the development stage.
The CPV Group operates power plants in the conventional area, which are powered by natural gas (of the combined-cycle type of the prior generation) and in the area of renewable energy. As at the approval date of the financial statements, the share of the CPV Group in the power plants powered by natural gas is about 1,290 megawatts out of 4,045 megawatts (5 power plants), and in wind energy the share of the CPV Group is about 152 megawatts (one power plant).
In addition, the CPV Group holds rights in power plants powered by natural gas and solar technology in the construction stages having capacities of 1,258 megawatts and 126 megawatts, respectively (the share of the CPV Group as at the approval date of the financial statements is about 126 megawatts and about 126 megawatts, respectively). In addition, the CPV Group has a list (backlog) of projects using various different technologies in development stages in the cumulative scope of between 7,092 and 7,492 megawatts.
A. In the Proforma Statements, which include the proforma consolidated interim statements of income and the proforma consolidated interim statements of comprehensive income for each of the nine-month and three-month periods ended on September 30, 2021 and 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2020, adjustments and classifications were made regarding the manner of presentation of certain items in the financial data of Acquired Activities in order to conform the manner of their presentation to that of the Company, including to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
The functional currency of the companies acquired is the Dollar, which is different than the Company's functional currency, which is the shekel and for purposes of consolidation of the Proforma Statements the statements of the companies acquired were translated from the Dollar into shekels. The translation differences relating to the investment in the equity were included in the statement of comprehensive income and translation differences in respect of a loan the Company provided to the Buyer were recorded as exchange rate differences in the "financing expenses" category.
As a practical result, in the proforma consolidated interim statements of income for the nine-month periods ended on September 30, 2021 and 2020, income from exchange rate differences was included, in the amount of about NIS 2 million and expenses from exchange rate differences was included, in the amount of about NIS 2 million, respectively, and for the year ended December 31, 2020 expenses from exchange rate differences were included, in the amount of about NIS 39 million. In the proforma consolidated interim statements of comprehensive income for the nine-month periods ended on September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, positive translation differences were included in the amount of about NIS 9 million and negative translation differences were included in the amount of about NIS 9 million respectively, and for the year ended December 31, 2020, negative translation differences were included in the amount of about NIS 144 million.
The acquisition was accounted for in accordance with the provisions of IFRS 3 "Business Combinations". Therefore, on the completion date of the transaction the Company included the assets of the CPV Group, net, in accordance with their fair values. The Company's share in the acquisition consideration amounted to about \$457 million. The excess cost created on the acquisition of the CPV Group amounted to about \$20 million.
In the Proforma Statements, the excess cost was allocated partly to the property, plant and equipment of the associated companies and partly to goodwill. The excess cost allocated to the associated companies was amortized in the Proforma Statements over the balance of the useful life of the property, plant and equipment (33 years). Accordingly, in the proforma consolidated interim statement of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and for the year ended December 31, 2020, expenses for amortization of excess cost were recorded in the category "Company's share in income (losses) of affiliated companies", in the amounts of about NIS 1 million and about NIS 2 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, it was assumed that the fair-value adjustments as presented in Note 6 to the consolidated interim financial statements as at September 30, 2021 are the same as the adjustments that would have been made if the acquisition had taken place on January 1, 2021.
As stated above, the Company partly hedged (accounting hedge) the exposure to changes in the cash flows due to payments in the Dollar in connection with the acquisition agreement by means of forward transactions. Costs deriving to the Company as a result of the said hedge in the Company's statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and for the year ended December 31, 2020, in the amounts of about NIS 15 million and about NIS 88 million, which were recorded in other comprehensive income, were eliminated in the proforma statements of comprehensive income.
It was assumed that acquisition costs, in the amounts of about NIS 2 million, about NIS 4 million and about NIS 42 million, which were included in the Company's consolidated statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, and for the year ended December 31, 2020, respectively, were recognized in the period immediately preceding completion of the transaction for purposes of the Proforma Statements, that is, January 1, 2018, and therefore they are not included in the operating expenses in proforma consolidated statements of income. The tax impacts were included as applicable.
As stated above, the acquisition transaction was financed through raising of capital, in the amount of NIS 1,077 million, which took place in October 2020, and by means of selling debentures (Series B), in the amount of NIS 377 million, which took place in April and October 2020. Since the proforma event in statements of income is reflected as if the acquisition had been made on January 1, 2018, the Company's results of activities as included in the proforma consolidated statement of income includes deemed interest expenses, in order to reflect therein the assumption as if sale of the said debentures was executed on January 1, 2018. Therefore, the Company included deemed interest expenses in each of the consolidated proforma statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and for the year ended December 31, 2020, in the amount of about NIS 8 million, pursuant to the interest rate on the debentures (Series B). The tax impacts were included accordingly.
On the completion date of the transaction, the former shareholders of the CPV Group invested about \$67 million in the CPV Group (about \$13 million in equity and about \$54 million in a seller's loan), where the amount of about \$67 million out of this amount was used for repayment of a loan from a financial institution that was received in 2017 and that bore interest at the rate of 12.5%. The Seller's loan bears interest at the annual rate of 4.5%. In the proforma consolidated statements of income, it was assumed that these transactions were executed on January 1, 2018 and, therefore, an adjustment was made of the financing costs for the refinancing and, accordingly, the financing expenses in the proforma consolidated statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 and for the year ended December 31, 2020 were reduced by about NIS 1 million, about NIS 13 million and about NIS 17 million, respectively, in order to reflect the difference between the interest rate of about 12.5% and the interest rate of 4.5%. In addition, in the proforma consolidated statements as at September 30, 2021, the financing income in connection with early repayment of the mezzanine loan, in the amount of about NIS 15 million, was eliminated. The tax impacts were included accordingly.
Part of the Acquired Activities was executed through partnerships that are not taxed at the partnership level but, rather, at the level of the partners and, therefore, no tax expenses were included in the financial statements of these entities. In the Proforma Statements, the tax impacts of the Acquired Activities that are taxed as partnerships for purposes of U.S. federal taxes was included, as they are reflected at the level of the CPV Group, this being on the basis of the tax rate of the CPV Group that applied in the proforma period (about 26% in all the proforma periods – Federal tax of 21% and state tax at an average rate of 5%). As a practical result, in the proforma statement of income for the nine months ended on September 30, 2021 and 2020, and for the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recorded additional tax expenses, in the amounts of about NIS 5 million, NIS 32 million and about NIS 12 million, respectively.
Expenses deriving from distribution of bonuses to employees, in the amount of about \$6 million (about NIS 21 million), which were paid to employees of the CPV Group in connection with completion of the transaction, which were included in the "administrative and general" category in the financial statements of the CPV Group for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, were eliminated in the proforma statement of income in accordance with the assumption, as stated, that the completion date of the transaction for purposes of the proforma statements is January 1, 2018.
The revenues from sale of associated companies that were included in the statements of the CPV Group in the "other income" category in 2020, in the amount of about \$7 million (about NIS 25 million), were eliminated in the proforma statements of income since they do not reflect the Company's business plan of selling associated companies upon their increase in value but, rather, the intention to continue to hold and operate these companies.
In each of the years presented in the proforma statement of income, the share of the holders of non-controlling interests in the income (loss) was included that derives from the impact of the data relating to the Acquired Activities that was used in preparation of the proforma financial statements and the proforma adjustments that were included in the proforma consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
