2. Reasons why all the funds raised by the project are used for plant construction and decoration and land purchase
The company’s existing production capacity can not meet the delivery of fast-growing power lithium battery orders, and in order to meet the site area required for large-scale equipment production and replace the leased plant, it is necessary to build a self built plant to increase the operating area. It is necessary for the company’s project to raise funds for plant construction and decoration and land purchase.
At the same time, the “industrialization project of special machines in the front and middle sections of lithium batteries and complete sets of equipment for the whole line” raised and invested this time is mainly to build assembly workshops and supporting office and accommodation areas, and the main production processes involved are equipment assembly and commissioning. The plant area where the raised and invested project is located does not involve machining processes, and the plant area where the project is located does not make large investment in machinery and equipment, but is only purchased for plant operation management, logistics, warehousing Quality inspection and daily office equipment and software, etc. Therefore, all the funds raised by the company for this project are used for plant construction and decoration and land purchase.
(II) the raised investment project belongs to the field of scientific and technological innovation
The company is mainly engaged in the R & D, production and sales of intelligent manufacturing equipment, and provides high-end equipment and digital intelligence whole plant solutions for well-known enterprises at home and abroad in lithium battery, auto parts, ICT and other industries. It mainly focuses on lithium battery manufacturing equipment, and its main business has the attribute of science and innovation. The funds raised in this offering will be invested in the “industrialization project of special aircraft in the front and middle sections of lithium batteries and complete sets of equipment for the whole line” and supplement working capital. The planned products of the “industrialization project of special aircraft and complete equipment of the whole line in the front and middle section of lithium battery” are lithium battery manufacturing equipment and supporting solutions. The main products of the project belong to “lithium battery production equipment” in “new electronic components and equipment manufacturing” of “new generation information technology industry” in the catalogue of key products and services specified in the classification of strategic emerging industries (2018) issued by the National Bureau of statistics. At the same time, the company’s supplementary working capital mainly meets the working capital demand driven by the expansion of business scale, which is closely related to the company’s main business. Therefore, the industry in which the fund-raising investment project is located belongs to the field of scientific and technological innovation.
To sum up, all the funds raised by the project are used for plant construction and decoration and land purchase, which is the need for the construction of “industrialization project of special aircraft in the front and middle section of lithium battery and complete equipment of the whole line”, and belongs to the field of scientific and technological innovation.

2、 When to pay the land transfer fee for the project land, is there any situation that the raised funds are proposed to replace the funds invested before the meeting of the board of directors
The resolution date of the board of directors of the company to review the proposal related to convertible bonds is January 4, 2022; The amount of the company’s project land transfer fee is 73.3 million yuan, and the payment status and time are 21.99 million yuan of bidding deposit on January 10, 2022 and 51.31 million yuan of the remaining land transfer fee on February 18, 2022 (the bidding deposit is used as the land transfer price). The company’s time to pay the project land transfer fee is after the company deliberates the resolution of the board of directors on the proposal related to convertible bonds.
