In the lawsuits, Guizhou Taibang had demanded Xinjiang Deyuan to repay the principal amount and interests under certain loan (the “Loan”) lent to it by Guizhou Taibang in connection with the Cooperation Agreement, to further perform Xinjiang Deyuan’s obligations under the Cooperation Agreement, to pay related penalties, and to compensate the losses of Guizhou Taibang due to Xinjiang Deyuan’s breach of the Cooperation Agreement, among other things.

On December 28, 2020, Guizhou Taibang, Xinjiang Deyuan and its controlling shareholder entered into settlement agreements to settle the lawsuits. Pursuant to the settlement agreements, Xinjiang Deyuan shall pay to Guizhou Taibang an aggregate amount of approximately RMB300 million, consisting of the repayment of all the outstanding principal amount and interests under the Loan, the return of certain prepaid purchase price for source plasma, and the compensation for termination of contract. After the full payment of such amount by Xinjiang Deyuan to Guizhou Taibang, the Cooperation Agreement will terminate.
