OPC's revenue from the sale of electricity to private customers derives from electricity sold at the generation component tariffs, as published by the Israeli Electricity Authority ("EA"), with some discount. Accordingly, changes in the generation component tariffs generally affect the prices paid under PPAs by customers of OPC-Rotem and OPC-Hadera. The weighted-average generation component tariff for 2021, as published by the EA, was NIS 0.2526 per KW hour, which was approximately 5.7% lower than the weighted-average generation component tariff in 2020 of NIS 0.2678 per KW hour. OPC's revenues from sale of steam are linked partly to the price of gas and partly to the Israeli Consumer Price Index.

Set forth below is a discussion of changes in revenues by category between Q3 2021 and Q3 2020.

  • Revenue from energy generated by OPC (and/or purchase from other generators) and sold to private customers increased by \$5 million in Q3 2021, as compared to Q3 2020. As OPC's revenue is denominated in NIS, translation of its revenue into US Dollars had a positive impact of \$4 million. Excluding the impact of exchange rate fluctuations, OPC's revenues increased by \$1 million primarily as a result of a \$5 million increase due to an increase in availability of the OPC-Rotem power plant, partially offset by a \$4 million decrease due to a decline in the generation component tariff.
  • Revenue from energy purchased by OPC at the TAOZ rate and sold to private customers – decreased by \$12 million in Q3 2021, as compared to Q3 2020, primarily as a result of (i) an \$11 million decrease in sale of energy purchased for OPC-Rotem's customers due to an increase in availability of the OPC-Rotem power plant and (ii) a \$1 million decrease in sale of energy purchased for OPC-Hadera's customers.
  • Revenue from private customers in respect of infrastructure services decreased by \$1 million in Q3 2021, as compared to Q3 2020. As OPC's revenue is denominated in NIS, translation of its revenue into US Dollars had a positive impact of \$1 million. Excluding the impact of exchange rate fluctuations, these revenues decreased by \$2 million primarily as a result of (i) a \$1 million decrease due to a decline in infrastructure tariffs for 2021 and (ii) a \$1 million decrease in sale of energy purchased for OPC-Rotem's customers.
  • Revenue from energy sold to the System Administrator increased by \$2 million in Q3 2021, as compared to Q3 2020, primarily as a result of an increase in sale of energy to the System Administrator from (i) the OPC-Hadera power plant of \$1 million and (ii) from the OPC-Rotem power plant of \$1 million.
  • Revenue from virtual supply increased due to the supply of electricity to customers through the purchase of energy from the System Administrator from September 2021. Since July 2021, OPC has a license for the provision of "virtual supply" of energy purchased from the System Administrator for consumers. Commencing September 2021, the Company has customers in the scope of about 110 MW for virtual supply.
  • Revenue from sale of electricity and provision of services in the U.S. increased due to the completion of the acquisition of CPV in January 2021.

Natural gas and diesel oil consumption – decreased by \$1 million in Q3 2021, as compared to Q3 2020. As OPC's cost of sales is denominated in NIS, translation of its cost of sales into US Dollars had a negative impact of \$2 million. Excluding the impact of exchange rate fluctuations, OPC's cost of sales decreased by \$3 million primarily as a result of (i) a \$2 million decrease due to the decline in gas price as a result of a decline in foreign exchange rate of the dollar, and (ii) a \$5 million decrease due to the receipt of compensation in respect of a delay in the commercial operation of Energean, partially offset by a \$4 million increase due to an increase in the gas consumption by the OPC-Rotem plant due to an increase in capacity.

  • Payment to IEC for infrastructures services and purchase of electricity – decreased by \$13 million in Q3 2021, as compared to Q3 2020. As OPC's cost of sales is denominated in NIS, translation of its cost of sales into US Dollars had a negative impact of \$2 million. Excluding the impact of exchange rate fluctuations, OPC's cost of sales decreased by \$15 million primarily as a result of (i) a \$10 million decrease due to load reductions and increase in capacity of the OPC-Rotem power plant, (ii) a \$2 million decrease in energy purchases due to increased availability of the OPC-Hadera power plant, and (iii) a \$3 million decrease due to a decline in infrastructure tariffs and decline in energy consumption by OPC-Rotem's customers.
  • Expenses for purchase of electricity virtual supply – increased due to the supply of electricity to customers through the purchase of energy from the System Administrator from September 2021.
  • Operating costs and cost of services in the U.S. – increased due to the completion of the acquisition of CPV in January 2021.

Finance Expenses, net

Finance expenses, net increased by approximately \$77 million in Q3 2021 primarily as a result of a \$75 million expense due to an early repayment of the OPC-Rotem project financing debt in October 2021 as described below.

For further details of the performance of associated companies of CPV, refer to OPC's immediate report published on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange ("TASE") on November 28, 2021 and the convenience English translations furnished by Kenon on Form 6-K on November 29, 2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2021, OPC had cash and cash equivalents and short-term deposits of \$485 million, restricted cash of \$60 million (including debt service reserves of \$38 million), and total outstanding consolidated indebtedness of \$1,524 million, consisting of \$430 million of short-term indebtedness and \$1,094 million of long-term indebtedness. As of September 30, 2021, a substantial portion of OPC's debt was denominated in NIS.

Business Developments

Series C Bonds Issuance

As previously reported, in September 2021, OPC issued Series C debentures at a par value of NIS 851 million (approximately \$266 million), bearing annual interest of 2.5%. The Series C bonds are repayable over 12 semi-annual payments (which repayment amounts vary, and range from 5% up to 16% of the total issued amount) commencing in February 2024 with the final payment in August 2030. OPC used the proceeds from the Series C bonds for the early repayment of project financing debt of OPC-Rotem as described below.

Rights Issuance

In September 2021, OPC issued rights to purchase approximately 13 million OPC shares to fund the development and expansion of OPC's activity in the USA, with investors purchasing approximately 99.7% of the total shares offered in the rights offering. The gross proceeds from the offering amounted to approximately NIS 329 million (approximately \$102 million). Kenon exercised rights for the purchase of approximately 8 million shares for total consideration of approximately NIS 206 million (approximately \$64 million), which included its pro rata share and additional rights it purchased during the rights trading period plus the cost to purchase these additional rights. As a result, Kenon now holds approximately 58.8% of the outstanding shares of OPC.

Early repayment of OPC-Rotem loan

In October 2021, OPC-Rotem repaid early a project financing debt in the amount NIS 1,292 million (approximately \$400 million) (including early repayment fees). As part of the early repayment, OPC-Rotem recognized a one-off expense totaling NIS 244 million (approximately \$75 million), in respect of an early repayment fee of approximately NIS 188 million (approximately \$58 million), net of tax. OPC and the minority investor in OPC-Rotem extended to OPC-Rotem loans (pro rata to their ownership) to finance the early repayment totaling (principal) NIS 1,130 million (approximately \$350 million). A significant portion of OPC's portion of NIS 904 million (approximately \$280 million) was funded by the issuance of Series C debentures as described above.

Belltown PSA

In October 2021, CPV entered into agreements to acquire the rights in two solar projects under development in the PJM market in the United States, one in Kentucky (approximately 98 MW) and one in Illinois (approximately 360 MW) for approximately \$9 million plus contingent consideration, which together with the amount paid on completion date, may reach approximately \$46 million. The contingent consideration is payable in installments, subject to meeting the Projects' development milestones.

ZIM

Discussion of ZIM's Results for Q3 2021

For the quarter ended September 30, 2021, ZIM's net profit was \$1,463 million, as compared to net profit of \$144 million in Q3 2020. ZIM's Adjusted EBITDA2 in Q3 2021 was \$2,080 million, as compared to \$262 million in Q3 2020.

ZIM carried approximately 884 thousand TEUs in Q3 2021 representing a 16% increase as compared to Q3 2020, in which ZIM carried approximately 762 thousand TEUs. The average freight rate in Q3 2021 was \$3,226 per TEU, as compared to \$1,176 per TEU in Q3 2020.

ZIM's revenues increased by approximately 210% in Q3 2021 to approximately \$3.1 billion, as compared to approximately \$1.0 billion in Q3 2020, primarily due to an increase in revenues from containerized cargo, reflecting increases in both freight rates and carried volume.

Qoros

Updates to Sale of remaining 12% interest

In April 2021, Kenon's subsidiary Quantum (2007) LLC ("Quantum") entered into an agreement with the China-based investor related to the Baoneng Group that holds 63% of Qoros (the "Majority Shareholder") to sell its remaining 12% interest in Qoros for RMB 1.56 billion (approximately \$241 million). The agreement provides that a deposit of 5% was due by July 30, 2021 and that the purchase price is payable in installments: the initial payment was due on September 30, 2021 and the final installment is payable on March 31, 2023. However, while the Majority Shareholder has transferred RMB 1 million (approximately \$0.2 million) to an escrow account, the Majority Shareholder has failed to make any of the required payments under this agreement. The Majority Shareholder had previously requested Quantum to agree to a revised payment plan, but no agreement has been reached, and the payments due under the agreement remain unpaid. We are pursuing various options with respect to the payments that were not made as required.

The agreement provides that any payment delayed for more than 30 days is subject to interest. In addition, as a result of the payment delay, Quantum currently has the right to exercise the Put Option it has over its remaining shares.

Substantially all of Quantum's shares in Qoros remain pledged to Qoros' lenders and completion of the sale (including pursuant to the put option) requires a release of the pledge over Kenon's shares in Qoros as well as obtaining necessary regulatory approvals and registrations.

Update on Qoros' Loan Facilities

As previously disclosed, Qoros, which is controlled and has been supported by the Majority Shareholder, had been in discussions with lenders on rescheduling loan repayments on its long term loans. Such a rescheduling has not been agreed, and to date, Qoros did not make payments totaling approximately RMB 455 million (\$71 million) which were due in respect of its RMB 3 billion, RMB 1.2 billion and RMB 0.7 billion loan facilities, and as a result, the lenders under these facilities accelerated the RMB 3 billion and RMB 0.7 billion loans. In the fourth quarter of 2021, Chery Automobile Co. Ltd. ("Chery") paid the full amount of its guarantee obligations under these loans. Kenon has total outstanding back-to-back guarantees to Chery of approximately \$16 million in respect of these loan facilities (representing 12% of the amount Chery paid), and Chery has issued to Kenon demand notices to pay these guaranteed amounts and Kenon plans to pay to Chery the amounts demanded in satisfaction of its back-to-back guarantee obligations. Following this payment, Kenon will have no additional credit guarantee obligations with respect to Qoros debt.

Qoros continues to engage in discussions with the lenders and other relevant stakeholders relating to its other outstanding bank loans and resumption of manufacturing production which was shut down earlier this year. As previously disclosed, substantially all of Quantum's shares in Qoros are pledged to secure Qoros' RMB 1.2 billion loan. The Majority Shareholder has provided Kenon with a guarantee in respect of its pro rata share, and up to all, of Quantum's pledge obligations.

For more information on our agreement to sell our remaining interest in Qoros, and on Qoros' loan agreements and our pledges and guarantees, see our most recent annual report on Form 20-F.

Kenon's results for the third quarter are impacted by a reduction in the carrying amount of Qoros to zero.

Additional Kenon Updates

Sales of ZIM shares

Between September and November 2021, Kenon sold approximately 1.2 million ZIM shares at an average price of \$58 per share for a total consideration of approximately \$67 million. As a result of the sales, Kenon now holds a 26.0% interest in ZIM (25.6% on a fully diluted basis).

Kenon's (Unconsolidated) Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2021, Kenon's unconsolidated cash balance was \$238 million. Following payment for Kenon's participation in OPC's rights issuance and receipt of proceeds from the sale of ZIM shares subsequent to the balance sheet date as described above, Kenon's unconsolidated cash balance is currently approximately \$174 million. There is no material debt at the Kenon level.

Interim dividend for the year ending December 31, 2021

In November 2021, Kenon's board of directors approved an interim cash dividend of \$3.50 per share (an aggregate amount of approximately \$189 million) (the "Dividend") relating to the year ending December 31, 2021, payable to Kenon's shareholders of record as of the close of trading on January 19, 2022 (the "Record Date"), to be paid on or about January 27, 2022 (the "Payment Date"). A significant portion of this dividend is expected to be funded by the receipt of the ZIM dividend which ZIM has announced will be paid in December 2021 as discussed above.

In April 2021, Kenon paid a dividend of approximately \$100 million (\$1.86 per share).

The New York Stock Exchange's (the "NYSE") ex-dividend date, which is the date on which Kenon's shares will begin trading on the NYSE without the entitlement to the Dividend, is January 18, 2022 (the "NYSE Ex-Dividend Date"). The NYSE will adjust the price of Kenon's shares on the NYSE Ex-Dividend Date to reflect the Dividend.

The TASE ex-dividend date, which is the date on which Kenon's shares will begin trading on the TASE without the entitlement to the Dividend, is January 19, 2022 (the "TASE Ex-Dividend Date"). The TASE will adjust the price of Kenon's shares on the TASE Ex-Dividend Date to reflect the Dividend.

We encourage you to contact your bank, broker, nominee or other institution if you have any questions regarding the mechanics and timing of having the Dividend attributable to your shares credited to your account.

Singapore tax is not expected to be imposed on Kenon's shareholders in connection with the Dividend. Nevertheless, the Dividend may constitute a taxable event to Kenon's shareholders according to their jurisdiction and the relevant tax law applicable (including for the purpose of withholding tax in accordance with applicable law and/or regulation). Kenon's shareholders should consult their tax advisors with respect to the federal, state, and/or any other applicable tax consequences of the Dividend, and the potential imposition of withholding taxes in connection with the Dividend.

Appendix C

Definition of OPC's Adjusted EBITDA and share of EBITDA of its associated companies and non-IFRS reconciliation

This press release, including the financial tables, presents OPC's Adjusted EBITDA and share of EBITDA of its associated companies, which are non-IFRS financial measures.

OPC defines EBITDA as for each period as net profit before depreciation and amortization, financing expenses, net, and income tax expense, and Adjusted EBITDA as for each period as net profit before depreciation and amortization, financing expenses, net, income tax expense and share of losses of associated companies, net. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not recognized under IFRS or any other generally accepted accounting principles as a measure of financial performance and should not be considered as a substitute for net profit or loss, cash flow from operations or other measures of operating performance determined in accordance with IFRS. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended to represent funds available for dividends or other discretionary uses because those funds may be required for debt service, capital expenditures, working capital and other commitments and contingencies. There are limitations that impair the use of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as measures of OPC's profitability since it does not take into consideration certain costs and expenses that result from OPC's business that could have a significant effect on net profit, such as financial expenses, taxes, and depreciation and amortization.

OPC believes that the disclosure of Adjusted EBITDA and share of EBITDA of its associated companies provide transparent and useful information to investors and financial analysts in their review of the company's, or its subsidiaries', or its associated companies' operating performance and in the comparison of such operating performance to the operating performance of other companies in the same industry or in other industries that have different capital structures, debt levels and/or income tax rates.

Set forth below are reconciliations of OPC's net profit to Adjusted EBITDA and share of net profit to share of EBITDA of its associated companies for the periods presented. Other companies may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently, and therefore this presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Appendix E

Definition of ZIM's Adjusted EBITDA and non-IFRS reconciliation

This press release, including the financial tables, presents ZIM's Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-IFRS financial measure.

ZIM defines Adjusted EBITDA as for each period as net profit before depreciation and amortization, financing expenses, net, income tax expense, impairment of assets, non-cash charter hire expenses, capital gains/losses beyond the ordinary course of business and expenses related to legal contingencies. Adjusted EBITDA is not recognized under IFRS or any other generally accepted accounting principles as a measure of financial performance and should not be considered as a substitute for net profit or loss, cash flow from operations or other measures of operating performance determined in accordance with IFRS. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to represent funds available for dividends or other discretionary uses because those funds may be required for debt service, capital expenditures, working capital and other commitments and contingencies. There are limitations that impair the use of Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of ZIM's profitability since it does not take into consideration certain costs and expenses that result from ZIM's business that could have a significant effect on net profit, such as financial expenses, taxes, and depreciation and amortization.

ZIM believes that the disclosure of Adjusted EBITDA enables the comparison of operating performance between periods on a consistent basis. This measure should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for operating income, any other performance measure, or cash flow data, which were prepared in accordance with IFRS as measures of profitability or liquidity. In addition, non-IFRS financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, due to differences in the way these measures are calculated.

Set forth below is a reconciliation of ZIM's net profit to Adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented.

For the three months ended
