agreed to fill these newly created vacancies by appointing one nominee from each
of Exploration Capital and Skyberry Holdings.

today's vote are a win-win for Sierra Geothermal shareholders and an endorsement
of the current management team and Board. The expanded Board intends to
accelerate the pursuit of strategic alternatives with the objective of
maximizing value for all shareholders." He added, "I want to personally thank
shareholders for voting. There was an outstanding turnout with more than 86% of
our shares voted."


The Chair of the Special Committee of Sierra's Board of Directors, Rita Theil,
said "We see this as a very positive step in our effort to maximize value for
all of our shareholders and we are excited at the possibility that we can work
together with Exploration Capital and Skyberry Holdings towards that common
goal. We continue to be open to all strategic options, including project level
partnerships, a merger involving Sierra and others or an outright sale of the
Company."
