Pursuant to the Investment Contract, Xi’an Lintong agreed to transfer to Xi’an Tech Full, the right to use a certain parcel of land consisting of 500 Chinese Mu (approximately 82.4 acres or 333,500 square meters) and located at Daixin Industrial Development Zone in Xi’an Lintong Tourism and Business Development Zone for the purpose of constructing a new manufacturing facility that will produce electric equipment and machinery and related products as part of a capacity expansion project at Xi’an Tech Full.
Pursuant to the terms of the Investment Contract, the land use right was to be for a period of 50 years, beginning from the day the land was delivered to Xi’an Tech Full by Xi’an Lintong. The total price of the land transfer was RMB500,000 per Mu, with a total price of approximately RMB250 million (approximately $38.8 million). A prepayment of RMB150 million ($23.0 million) was made by the Company to Xi’an Lintong on June 30, 2011.

Pursuant to the terms of the Project Agreement, the price of the land transfer with respect to the first block of land is approximately RMB300,000 per Mu (or RMB165 million in total) and the price of the land transfer with respect to the second block of land is approximately RMB1,700,000 per Mu (or RMB85 million in total) The total cost of the two blocks of land is approximately RMB250 million (approximately $38.8 million).
