nate, this was noted in the Key milestones to Production thread as follows:
First 5% option for additional interest in the Solwara 1 Project by the State -- June 11, 2015
If PNG doesn't take the first 5%, they are disqualified from the additional two 5% options. Given that the PNG budget is way overspent, they will have to make some hard decisions if they are to invest up to another $120M. But in the end the expected payback will be too hard to resist and I personally expect them to opt in on all 3 of the remaining 5% options.

I would also bet on: yes, they will take the 15% - look at the next Solwara location this is the real money bringer for PNG (and us) - initial cost from... let's say 10-20 million will bring 1.5 - 2 billion dollars - PNG would be stupid not to support NUS with it's money!!!
