Ormat Technologies permits insurers to offer employees of Ormat Technologies certain voluntary insurance programs. Whether you choose to enroll in any of these programs is completely optional and voluntary. Ormat Technologies does not make a contribution towards the cost of these programs and employees pay the full cost of premiums on an after-tax basis. Ormat Technologies does not sponsor, maintain, endorse, recommend, or promote these voluntary programs. Ormat Technologies' involvement regarding these voluntary insurance programs is strictly limited to allowing the insurer access to employees to publicize these programs and Ormat Technologies may perform certain ministerial functions such as payroll deduction and forwarding employee premium payments to the insurer. Ormat Technologies does not receive any consideration in the form of cash or otherwise in connection with the program, other than reasonable compensation, excluding any profit, for administrative services actually rendered in connection with payroll deductions. Accordingly, these voluntary insurance programs are not subject to ERISA and related regulations. All questions or claims regarding these programs should be directed to the insurer.

The cash amount (or gift card value) must be included in the employee’s income and is subject to payroll taxes. Any reward, incentive, or other benefit provided by a wellness program that is not medical care is included in an employee’s income.
