(II) verification conclusion

1. Whether the built, under construction and proposed projects of the target company belong to “high energy consumption and high emission” projects

As of the date of this supplementary legal opinion, the main projects built by the subject company are 200000 t / a methanol projects

Therefore, the project is not a “high energy consumption and high emission” project, and its basic information is as follows:

The main construction site of the project is approved by the competent department and approved by the environment. The name of the total construction investment number, product status and scale

Hebei Provincial Development Plan

Committee Hebei Environmental Protection Bureau 4963420 Xingtai County (Xiangji Jigong industry [2003] Jihuan Guan [2004] No. 126 methanol district with 200000 yuan and 10000 tons) Yanjia 628 million tons (actual / development and reform of West Xingtai City, Tunzhen village / Hebei Provincial Environmental Protection Department / annual 63000 methanol leather Committee jhy [2009] No. 248 million yuan) prepared by Xing FA Gai approval

[2008] No. 103

As of the date of issuance of this supplementary legal opinion, the subject company does not involve “high energy consumption and high emission”

Projects under construction and proposed projects.

According to the notice of the general office of the national development and Reform Commission issued by the national development and Reform Commission on February 26, 2020

Letter on confirming the implementation of phased power cost reduction policies and guidelines for Industry Classification of listed companies

(revised in 2012), high energy consuming industries include: 1) petroleum, coal and other fuel processing industry (C25);

2) Chemical raw materials and chemical products manufacturing (C26); 3) Non metallic mineral products industry (C30); 4)

Ferrous metal smelting and rolling processing industry (C31); 5) Nonferrous metal smelting and rolling processing industry (C32);

6) Power and heat production and supply industry (D4) Hebei Jinniu Chemical Industry Co.Ltd(600722) the methanol project belongs to “C26 chemical raw materials”

And chemical manufacturing.

According to the report on strengthening “high energy consumption and high emission” issued by the Ministry of ecological environment on May 30, 2021

Guiding opinions on the source prevention and control of ecological environment of construction projects, “two high” refers to “high energy consumption and high emission”,

“Two high” projects are temporarily divided into six lines: coal power, petrochemical, chemical industry, iron and steel, non-ferrous metal smelting and building materials

For industry category statistics, if there are clear provisions on the scope of “two high” countries in the follow-up, their provisions shall prevail.

According to the notice on strengthening the statistical work on climate change issued by the national development and Reform Commission and the National Bureau of statistics on May 20, 2013, the high emission industries listed in the notice are: 1) coal production enterprises; 2) Oil and gas exploration, production and processing enterprises; 3) Thermal power enterprises; 4) Iron and steel enterprises. According to the benchmark level and benchmark level of energy efficiency in key areas of high energy consuming industries (2021 version) issued by the national development and Reform Commission and implemented from January 1, 2022, the methanol industry belongs to the key areas of “high energy consumption and high emission”.

According to the restrictions in the Guiding Catalogue for industrial structure adjustment (2019 version) revised and issued by the national development and Reform Commission, the coal to methanol production plant with a capacity of less than 1 million tons / year is a restricted project. The manufacturing process of 200000 tons / year methanol of the target company is methanol from coke oven gas, not traditional coal to methanol, Therefore, the 200000 t / a methanol project of the company does not belong to the national restricted and eliminated projects.

According to the notice on printing and Issuing the special scheme for implementing more stringent energy consumption quota standards for high energy consuming industries issued by Hebei Provincial Development and Reform Commission on September 25, 2018, a list of energy consumption quota standards formulated for six high energy consuming industries in Hebei Province is listed, which does not involve the project of coke oven gas to methanol.

According to the comprehensive list of environmental protection (2021 version) issued by the general office of the Ministry of ecology and environment on November 2, 2021, the process products of coke oven gas to methanol are not included in the list of products with “high pollution and high environmental risk”.

In conclusion, our lawyers believe that although the subject company belongs to the industry of “high energy consumption and high emission”, its 200000 t / a methanol project manufacturing process is coke oven gas to methanol, not traditional coal to methanol, and does not belong to the project of “high energy consumption and high emission” in violation of laws and regulations related to energy conservation and environmental protection.

2. Whether the energy efficiency level of relevant projects reaches the advanced value of China

According to the national standard of the people’s Republic of China GB 294364-2015, the advanced value of energy consumption per unit product of coke oven gas to methanol enterprises is that the comprehensive energy consumption per unit product of methanol is ≤ 1300 (kgce / T). In addition, according to the regulations of benchmark level and benchmark level of energy efficiency in key areas of high energy consumption industry (2021 Edition), although there is no standard for the process of coke oven gas to methanol, the highest benchmark level of energy efficiency in methanol industry is that the comprehensive energy consumption per unit product of methanol is ≤ 1250 (kgce / T).

According to the data provided by the target company, the actual energy consumption of the target company’s 200000 t / a methanol project is 1237 (kgce / T) per ton of products in 2020 and 1120 (kgce / T) in 2021. Compared with the advanced value and energy efficiency benchmark level stipulated by the state, its energy efficiency value is at the advanced level.

In conclusion, our lawyers believe that the 200000 t / a methanol project of the subject company has reached the advanced value level of China.

3. Whether it meets the relevant national or local policy requirements and implementation, whether it is necessary to perform the procedures and implementation of examination and approval, approval and filing of relevant competent departments
