2.3.1.1 Update on the dispute arbitration in relation to the performance of the contract execution between Shanxi Neng Hua and Shanxi Jinhui Coke Chemical Co., Ltd.

In February 2005, Shanxi Nenghua entered into an asset swap contract and a material supply contract with Shanxi Jinhui Coke Chemical Co., Ltd. (“ Shanxi Jinhui ”), according to which, Shanxi Jinhui shall compensate Shanxi Tianhao Chemical Co., Ltd. (“ Tianhao Chemical ”), the subsidiary of Shanxi Nenghua, its actual losses if Shanxi Jinhui fail to provide the land for lease, gas, water, electricity supply and rail transportation for the establishment and production of Tianhao Chemical. In addition, Shanxi Jinhui shall purchase all the equity interest in Tianhao Chemical held by Shanxi Neng Hua to compensate the losses at a price not less than the total investment in Tianhao Chemical as well as the interest on bank loans over the same period, if Tianchi Chemical is unable to operate continually caused by Shanxi Jinhui’s breach of contract.

Shanxi Jinhui failed to fulfill the “contractual obligations to provide gas, middlings and land supply” and unilaterally suspended the gas supply. As a result, Tianhao Chemical was unable to operate continually and subsequently ceased production of methanol in April 2012. In September 2013, Shanxi Neng Hua submitted the arbitration to Beijing Arbitration Commission, requesting Shanxi Jinhui to purchase all the equity interests in Tianhao Chemical held by Shanxi Neng Hua and paid a total of RMB798.8 million comprising equity transfer and other losses in accordance with the contracts.

In October 2013, Shanxi Neng Hua submitted the application for property preservation to the People's Court of Xinghualing District, Taiyuan City, Shanxi Province. 39% of equity equivalents of Shanxi Jinhui Longtai Coal Co., Ltd. held by Shanxi Jinhui was frozen and sealed up.
