The redemption period of this convertible bond is the same as the conversion period, that is, from the first trading day six months after the date of issuance to the maturity date of this convertible bond.
The calculation formula of current accrued interest is: ia = B × i × t / 365
Ia: interest accrued in the current period;
i: Refers to the coupon rate of this convertible bond in the current year;
t: Refers to the number of interest days, that is, the actual calendar days from the last interest date to the redemption date of this interest year (the beginning does not count the end).

2、 Redemption implementation arrangement
1. Redemption price
According to the provisions on conditional redemption in the prospectus, the redemption price of “Dongcai Zhuan 3” is 100.18 yuan / piece. The calculation process is as follows:

Current interest ia = b × i × t/365=100 × 0.20% × 328 / 365 = 0.18 yuan / piece
