The specific compensation methods are as follows:

1. Compensation mode

Within 30 days after the issuance of the special audit reports of Kaifeng carbon for 2019, 2021 and 2022, the company shall confirm and notify the performance commitment party whether performance compensation is required and the amount of compensation in that year, and the performance commitment party shall perform the corresponding compensation obligations within 30 days after receiving the notice from the company.

If compensation is required, the performance commitment party shall compensate with the company’s shares obtained in this transaction. If the company’s shares held by the performance commitment party are insufficient to fully fulfill the agreed compensation obligations, or the performance commitment party violates the regular arrangement of share lock, or is restricted / unable to repurchase and / or transfer due to the pledge, freezing, enforcement or other reasons of the company’s shares held by the performance commitment party, Then the performance commitment party shall make full compensation in cash for the insufficient compensation of shares.

2. Compensation amount

Amount to be compensated in the current year = (cumulative committed net profit as of the end of the current period – cumulative actual net profit as of the end of the current period) ÷ total committed net profit of each year within the commitment year × Total amount of consideration received by the performance commitment Party of this transaction – cumulative compensated amount

3. Compensation sequence

(1) Share compensation

The company’s shares obtained due to this transaction shall be used as compensation, and the compensated shares shall be repurchased by the company at a total price of 1 yuan. If the repurchase and cancellation of the company’s above compensated shares cannot be implemented because it has not been deliberated and approved by the general meeting of shareholders or recognized by relevant creditors, the performance commitment party promises that within 2 months after the occurrence of the above circumstances, Give these shares to other shareholders of the company according to the proportion of the company’s shares held by other shareholders of the company other than the performance commitment party in all the company’s shares held by other shareholders of the company on the equity registration date of this compensation.

The number of shares to be compensated is calculated as follows:

Number of shares to be compensated in the current year = amount to be compensated in the current year ÷ the issue price

If the company implements conversion or share distribution in the commitment year, the number of compensation shares shall be adjusted accordingly as: the number of compensation shares in the current year (before adjustment) × (1 + proportion of conversion to value-added shares or share offering).

When the number of compensated shares calculated in each year is less than 0, it is taken as 0, that is, the compensated shares are not reversed.

The calculation formula of cash compensation in performance compensation is:

Cash amount to be compensated = amount to be compensated by the performance commitment Party – number of compensated shares × The share issue price of this transaction.

The performance commitment party shall remit the compensation amount to the bank account designated by the company at one time.

If the company implements cash distribution within the commitment year, the part of cash distribution (including the tax withheld and paid by the company) shall be returned accordingly, and the returned cash shall be paid to the account designated by the company.

4、 Explanation of reasons why Kaifeng carbon’s performance in 2021 did not meet expectations

On January 5, 2021, Kaifeng carbon was included in the SDN (specially formulated national list) list by OFAC (Office of overseas assets control of the U.S. Department of Finance), which is the highest level of U.S. economic sanctions, has a significant impact on enterprise operation, and superimposes the impact of severe rainstorm and three major epidemics in Henan, resulting in failure to achieve the performance commitment goal. Affected by the US sanctions, first, in order to avoid risks, banks and other financial institutions took measures such as compulsory account cancellation, suspension of capital renewal and foreign currency settlement business, and the loan balance decreased from 895 million yuan at the beginning of the year to 190 million yuan at the end of the year, resulting in extreme difficulties in enterprise production and operation and continued tension in the capital chain; Second, the import of raw materials is limited, the production progress lags behind, and the manufacturing cost increases; Third, the export of products will be completely stopped in 2021 (the export sales of products will account for 67.36% in 2019 and 47.02% in 2020). Fourth, some Chinese customers suspended or reduced their cooperation with Kaifeng carbon for fear of penetrating sanctions, and the sales volume in China did not meet expectations.

In view of the impact of objective factors such as US sanctions in 2021, and in line with the attitude of being responsible to the company and all investors, the company is conducting a comprehensive evaluation of the actual situation of Kaifeng carbon’s performance in 2021 with the performance commitment party. Urge the performance commitment party to timely adjust the performance commitment scheme or fulfill the performance commitment compensation agreement in strict accordance with the guidance on the supervision of listed companies No. 4 – commitments of listed companies and their related parties and the requirements of the performance commitment compensation agreement, and will timely perform the review procedures in accordance with the requirements of relevant laws and regulations. 5、 Documents for future reference
