On 5 August 2024, the Company held the eleventh meeting of the third session of Board of Directors and the seventh meeting of the third session of Board of Supervisors, and considered and approved the changes in some of proceeds-funded projects. The changes in some of proceeds-funded projects still need to be submitted to the General Meeting of the Company for consideration. The changes in some of proceeds-funded projects do not constitute a related party transaction.

On 14 December 2023, the Company held the third meeting of the third session of Board of Directors and the third meeting of the third session of Board of Supervisors, and considered and approved the Resolution on the Use of Part of Idle Proceeds to Temporarily Supplement Working Capital. The Company intended to use part of the idle proceeds from the non-public offering of shares in 2020 to temporarily supplement working capital, with a total amount not exceeding 1.3 billion and a term not exceeding 12 months.. As of 1 July 2024, the balance of the special account for proceeds of the Shanwei Industrial Park Project amounted to 20,543,200, and the temporary supplementary working capital has not yet been returned to the special account, with a balance of 900 million.

The Company plans to return the temporary supplementary working capital to the special account of the Shanwei Industrial Park Project after the approval of the shareholders' general meeting and open a special account for proceeds for the new project, and sign a supervision agreement with the sponsor and the bank supervising the special account for proceeds. The remaining proceeds of the Shanwei Industrial Park Project will be transferred to the changed special account for proceeds according to the above-mentioned amount of the proceeds to be used after consideration, and the corresponding net interest (interest income less handling fee expenses, subject to the bank balance of proceeds on the date when it is transferred out) will be transferred in full to the special account for proceeds of the Mingyang Xinminbao Project. The special account for proceeds of the Shanwei Industrial Park Project will be cancelled accordingly, and the supervision agreement for proceeds signed by the Company with the sponsor and the bank supervising the special account for proceeds will also be terminated accordingly.

II. Specific reasons for changes in the proceeds-funded projects

(I) Planned investment and actual investment in the original project

The implementing entity of the original Shanwei Industrial Park Project is Shanwei Mingyang New Energy Technology Co., Ltd. ("Shanwei Mingyang"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Its construction work is the R&D and production base for large offshore wind power equipment, including the R&D and manufacturing of large offshore wind turbines, the manufacturing of offshore wind turbine blade equipment and the construction of related supporting facilities. Specific construction content includes plant, production equipment and supporting office building, dormitory, floating dock and 12-15MW offshore wind turbine R & D project of the production base project.

The Shanwei Industrial Park Project originally proposed to use proceeds of 1,499,514,100, and as at 31 July 2024, actual proceeds of 608,402,100 had been invested. At present, the construction of plant, some production equipment and ancillary office buildings, dormitories and the research and development project of 12-15MW offshore wind turbines for the production base project of the project has been completed. By the end of 2023, the Shanwei Industrial Park Project has achieved cumulative benefits of 488,453,100.

(II) Specific reasons for the changes in the proceeds-funded projects

According to the project feasibility study report, the total investment of the project was 2,500 million, as at 31 July 2024, the cumulative total amount invested in the project was 1,623,746,500, and the difference between the actual investment amount and the planned investment amount was 876,253,500, and the main reasons for the large difference between the actual investment amount and the planned investment amount of the project were: 1) the reduction of investment in some of the equipment and production lines due to the market situation in Shanwei area and the Company's business layout; 2) the saving of cost by adopting optimized design for some of the construction elements and the replacement of imported equipment with domestic equipment. The project was proposed to use the proceeds of 1,499,514,100, and as of 31 July 2024, the amount of proceeds invested was 608,402,100, the remaining unutilised proceeds amounted to 891,112,000.

Note 1: The balance of 12-15MW offshore wind turbine development amounted to 318,295,300, as detailed below:

(1) Optimization of the number of prototype development units: Due to the complexity of the research and development and system structure design of offshore ultra-large wind turbines, in order to guarantee the successful development of the project, the original plan was to install two prototypes successively for testing and validation. The completion of the first prototype testing and verification results showed that the project has reached the expected goals, and there was no need to invest in the research and development of another prototype, reducing the prototype materials and related investment of 162,076,000;

(2) As a result of the research and development innovation, the research and development of the project was adjusted from single main bearing compact semi-direct drive technology to double main bearing semi-direct drive technology, the research and development cost was significantly reduced, while the price of some components in the industry was reduced, and the overall cost of the research and development for a single unit was reduced by 73,820,500;

(3) No inputs such as sea cable and conduit rack foundation, reducing inputs by 70.0000 million. According to the planning of the project feasibility study, the offshore wind farm where the prototype is located needs to install the conduit rack foundation, sea cables and other ancillary equipment, but in the actual research and development process of the project to make full use of the testing environment that has already been available, and arranged for the prototype to be tested at the owner's offshore wind farms that have the same testing conditions, so that there is no need to invest in the sea cables and conduit rack foundation;

(4) The design and testing of the prototype part was changed from the original planning of joint development to independent research and development and testing, reducing the technical service fee by 12,398,800.

Note 2: The balance of the purchase of production equipment amounted to661,178,800, as detailed below:

(1) The total investment in equipment purchase for the production base project reduced by 559,138,800 for optimization purpose, including 1) the investment in purchase of certain equipment reduced t by 495,138,800. As the market demand for projects in Hainan region and Yangjiang region increases, the two regions have attracted more investment and production resources, resulting in a decrease in the demand for production resources and the demand for delivery of wind turbine orders in the Shanwei area. Therefore, in light of the market conditions, the Company reduced the investment and construction of certain equipment originally planned for the project. 2) Due to factors such as process optimization, the optimization of production line design as well as the substitution of domestic equipment for imported equipment, the investment reduced by 64 million.

(2) The total investment for optimization of floating wind turbine wharfs amounted to 102.04 million. In order to develop the offshore industry, the local government has optimized the construction of the wharf and related supporting infrastructure, which can provide complete wharf loading and unloading services to the Company. Therefore, the Company suspended the construction of the floating wind turbine wharf originally planned for such project and changed to leasing the governmental wharf for loading and unloading, so reducing the investment by 102.04 million.
