LETTER FROM THE BOARD
4. Term
The term of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds to be issued will be six years from the date of the issuance.
5. Coupon rate
The Board proposed to the Shareholders at the general meetings and the Class Meetings to authorise the Board to determine, before issuance, the method of determining the coupon rate of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds to be issued as well as the final interest rate for each interest accrual year upon negotiation with the sponsor (the lead underwriter) in accordance with national policies, market conditions and the actual conditions of the Company.
6. Method and timing of interest payment and repayment of the principal
The interest of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds to be issued will be paid annually. The principal of the unconverted A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds will be repaid and the interest for the final year will be paid upon maturity.
(1) Calculation of Annual Interest
Annual Interest means the interest accrued to a bond holder in each year on each anniversary of the date of issuance of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds which is calculated based on the aggregate nominal value of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds held by him/her.
The formula for calculating the Annual Interest is: I = B × i
I: denotes the Annual Interest;
B: denotes the aggregate nominal value of the convertible bonds held by a convertible bond holder as at the record date for interest payment in an interest accrual year (“that year” or “each year”);
i: denotes the coupon rate of the convertible bonds of that year.
(2) Method of interest payment
- a. The interest of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds will be paid annually, accruing from the date of the issuance of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds.
– 6 –
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
-
b. Interest payment date: The interest is payable annually on each anniversary of the date of the issuance of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds. Where such a date falls on a statutory holiday or rest day, the interest payment date shall be postponed to the next working day, with no additional interest accrued during the period of postponement. The period between any two consecutive interest payment dates will be an interest accrual year.
-
c. Record date for interest payment: The record date for interest payment in each year will be the trading day immediately preceding the interest payment date. The Company will pay the interest accrued for that year within five trading days from the interest payment date. Where an A Share Convertible Corporate Bond holder converts his/her A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds into A Shares on or before the record date for interest payment in any interest accrual year, that A Share Convertible Corporate Bond holder shall not be entitled to any interest for that year and any subsequent interest accrual year.
-
d. Tax payable on the interest income of an A Share Convertible Corporate Bond holder shall be borne by such holder him/herself.
7. Conversion period
The conversion period of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds shall commence on the first trading day immediately following the expiry of the six-month period after the date of the issuance of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds, and end on the maturity date of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds.
8. Security
No security will be provided in relation to the issuance of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds.
9. Determination and adjustment of the conversion price
- (1) Basis for determining the initial conversion price
The initial conversion price of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds shall not be lower than the higher of the average trading price of A Shares during the 20 trading days immediately preceding the date of publication of the Offering Document (in the event that during such 20 trading days, the share price has been adjusted due to ex-rights or
– 7 –
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
ex-dividend, the average share price for the trading days before the adjustment shall be accordingly adjusted with reference to the adjusted share price following the ex-rights or ex-dividend) and the average trading price of A Shares on the trading day immediately preceding the date of publication of the Offering Document; and shall not be lower than the latest audited net asset value per Share and the par value per Share. The actual initial conversion price shall be determined, before issuance, by the Board upon negotiation with the sponsor (the lead underwriter) in accordance with the market conditions, subject to the authorisation by the Shareholders at the general meetings and the Class Meetings.
The average trading price of A Shares for the 20 trading days immediately preceding the date of publication of the Offering Document = the total trading amount of A Shares during such 20 trading days/the total trading volume of A Shares during such 20 trading days.
The average trading price of A Shares for the trading day immediately preceding the date of publication of the Offering Document = the total trading amount of A Shares on such a trading day/the total trading volume of A Shares on such a trading day.
- (2) Method of adjustment to the conversion price and the calculation formula
The conversion price is subject to adjustments in certain events that lead to changes in the number of Shares of the Company subsequent to the issuance of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds, such as distribution of share dividends, capitalisation, issuance of new shares or rights issue and distribution of cash dividends (excluding any increase in the share capital as a result of conversion of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds). The Company will adjust the conversion price based on the following formula (rounded off to two decimal places):
Distribution of share dividends or capitalisation: P1=P0/(1+n);
Issuance of new shares or rights issue: P1=(P0+A×k)/(1+k);
The above two events occurring concurrently: P1=(P0+A×k)/(1+n+k);
Distribution of cash dividends: P1=P0-D;
The above three events occurring concurrently: P1=(P0-D+A×k)/(1+n+k).
– 8 –
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
In the aforesaid formulae, “P0” denotes the conversion price before the adjustment; “n” denotes the rate of distribution of share dividends or capitalisation; “k” denotes the rate of issuance of new shares or rights issue; “A” denotes the price of issuance of new shares or rights issue; “D” denotes the cash dividend per share and “P1” denotes the adjusted conversion price.
Upon occurrence of any of the abovementioned changes in Shares and/or Shareholders’ interests, the Company will adjust the conversion price in accordance with the above method, and an announcement in relation to resolutions of the Board will be made on the website of Shanghai Stock Exchange and on the media designated by CSRC for information disclosure of listed companies. Such an announcement will indicate the date of the adjustment to the conversion price, method of the adjustment and suspension period of share conversion (if necessary). Meanwhile, the Company shall disclose such information to the Hong Kong market in accordance with the Listing Rules and the Articles (if necessary). If the conversion price adjustment date is on or after the date on which an A Share Convertible Corporate Bond holder applies for conversion of his/her A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds but before the registration date of the shares to be issued upon conversion, such conversion will be executed based on the adjusted conversion price.
In the event that the A Share Convertible Corporate Bond holders’ interests or the interests derived from the share conversion are affected by the change in the Company’s share class, quantity and/or Shareholders’ interests due to any possible share repurchase, consolidation, division or any other circumstances, the Company will adjust the conversion price based on the actual situations and in accordance with the principles of fairness, justice and equality so as to fully protect the interests of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bond holders. The details of the adjustment to the conversion price and its implementation measures shall be determined in accordance with the relevant national laws and regulations and the relevant requirements of the securities regulatory authorities.
10. Terms of downward adjustment to conversion price
(1) Authorisation and magnitude of adjustment
If, during the term of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds, the closing prices of A Shares in at least 15 trading days out of any 30 consecutive trading days are lower than 85% (excluding 85%) of the prevailing conversion price, the Board may propose a downward adjustment to the conversion price to Shareholders at the general meetings and the Class Meetings for their consideration and approval.
– 9 –
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
The abovementioned proposal is subject to approvals of more than two-thirds of the voting rights of the Shareholders who attend the general meeting and the Class Meetings. Shareholders who hold the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds should abstain from voting at the general meetings and Class Meetings. The adjusted conversion price should be no less than the higher of the average trading price of A Shares during the 20 trading days immediately preceding the date of the aforementioned general meeting and Class Meetings and the average trading price of A Shares on the trading day immediately preceding the date of such general meetings and Class Meetings. At the same time, the adjusted conversion price shall not be lower than the latest audited net asset value per Share and par value per Share.
In the event that an adjustment to the conversion price by the Company is made during the aforementioned 30 trading days, in respect of the trading days prior to the adjustment to the conversion price, the calculation shall be based on the unadjusted conversion price and the closing price of the A Shares on each such day, while in respect of the trading day on which adjustment to the conversion price is made and the trading days afterwards, the calculation shall be based on the adjusted conversion price and the closing price of the A Shares on each such day.
(2) Procedures of adjustment
In the event that the Company decides to adjust the conversion price downwards, the Company shall publish an announcement in connection therewith on the website of Shanghai Stock Exchange and media designated by the CSRC for information disclosure of listed companies. Such announcement shall disclose information including the magnitude of the adjustment, the suspension period of share conversion, and other relevant information. Meanwhile, the Company shall disclose the information to the Hong Kong market in accordance with the Listing Rules and the Articles (if necessary). Application for conversion of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds at the adjusted conversion price shall be resumed upon the conversion price adjustment date.
If the conversion price adjustment date is on or after the date of the application for conversion but before the registration date of the shares to be issued upon conversion, such conversion will be executed based on the adjusted conversion price.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
11. Method of determining the number of shares for conversion
Where an A Share Convertible Corporate Bond Holder applies to convert his/her A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds into A Shares during the conversion period, the formula for calculating the number of A Shares to be issued upon conversion is as below:
Q = V/P, any fractional share shall be rounded down to the nearest integer.
Q: denotes the number of A Shares to be issued upon conversion.
V: denotes the aggregate nominal value of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds in respect of which the A Share Convertible Corporate Bond Holder applies for conversion.
P: denotes the effective conversion price on the date of application for conversion.
Within five trading days from the date of conversion by A Share Convertible Corporate Bond Holder, the Company shall pay the A Share Convertible Corporate Bond Holder in cash an amount equal to the remaining balance of such A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds which is insufficient to be converted into one A Share and the interest accrued on such balance in accordance with the relevant requirements of the Shanghai Stock Exchange and such other authorities.
12. Terms of redemption
- (1) Terms of redemption upon maturity
Within five trading days upon maturity of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds, the Company will redeem the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds which have not been converted into A Shares by then, at a price determined by the Board upon negotiation with the sponsor (the lead underwriter) with reference to national policies, market conditions and the actual conditions of the Company upon the issuance, subject to the authorisation by the Shareholders at the general meetings and Class Meetings.
- (2) Terms of conditional redemption
During the conversion period, in case of one of the following two circumstances, the Company has the right to redeem all or part of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds which have not been converted into shares based on the par value plus the accrued interest then:
- a. where the closing prices of A Shares for at least 15 trading days out of 30 consecutive trading days during the conversion period are no less than 130% (including 130%) of the prevailing conversion price;
– 11 –
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
- b. where the balance of the outstanding A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds under the issuance is lower than RMB30 million.
Formula for calculating the then accrued interest is: IA=B×i×t/365
IA: denotes the accrued interest for the current period;
B: denotes the aggregate nominal value of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds to be deemed that are held by the A Share Convertible Corporate Bond Holders under the issuance;
i: denotes the coupon rate of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds for current year;
t: denotes the number of days on which interest is accrued, i.e. the actual number of calendar days from the last interest payment date up to the redemption date of that interest accrual year (including the last interest payment date and excluding the redemption date).
In the event that an adjustment to the conversion price is made during the aforesaid 30 trading days, the amount for trading days prior to the date of the adjustment shall be calculated based on the conversion price and the closing price of the A Shares before the adjustment, while the amount for trading days after the adjustment shall be calculated based on the conversion price and the closing price after the date of the adjustment.
13. Terms of sale back
(1) Terms of conditional sale back
During the last two interest accrual years within the term of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds, if the closing prices of the A Shares of the Company on any 30 consecutive trading days are lower than 70% (excluding 70%) of the prevailing conversion price, the A Share Convertible Corporate Bond Holders are entitled to sell back all or part of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds they hold to the Company at par plus the then accrued interest.
In the event that an adjustment to the conversion price by the Company is made due to distribution of share dividends, conversion or increase of share capital, issuance of new shares (excluding any increase in the share capital as a result of conversion of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds) or rights issue, distribution of cash dividends during the aforementioned trading days, in respect of the trading days prior to the adjustment, the calculation shall be based on the unadjusted
– 12 –
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
conversion price and the closing price of the A Shares on each such day, and in respect of the trading days after the adjustment, the calculation shall be based on the adjusted conversion price and the closing price of the A Shares on each such day. In the event that there is a downward adjustment to the conversion price, the aforesaid “30 consecutive trading days” shall be re-counted from the first trading day following the adjustment to the conversion price.
The A Share Convertible Corporate Bond Holders can exercise their sale back rights once every year when the sale back conditions are initially satisfied according to the abovementioned agreed terms in the last two interest accrual years within the term of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds. If the sale back conditions are initially satisfied, but the A Share Convertible Corporate Bond Holders do not apply for and exercise their sale back rights during the sale back declaration period then announced by the Company, they shall not exercise the sale back rights during such interest accrual years. The A Share Convertible Corporate Bond Holders are not allowed to exercise part of their sale back rights for multiple times.
(2) Additional terms of sale back
If the actual use of the proceeds raised from the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds to be issued significantly differs from the undertakings of the use of proceeds set out by the Company in the Offering Document, and such change is considered by the CSRC as a deviation in the use of proceeds, the A Share Convertible Corporate Bond Holders shall be entitled to a one-off right to sell all or part of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bond they hold back to the Company at par plus then accrued interest. Upon the satisfaction of the additional condition of sale back, the A Share Convertible Corporate Bond Holders may sell their A Share Convertible Corporate Bond back to the Company during the additional sale back declaration period after it is announced by the Company. If the A Share Convertible Corporate Bond Holders do not exercise their sale back rights during such period, they shall not exercise such rights later.
14. Entitlement to dividend in the year of conversion
The new A Shares to be issued as a result of the conversion of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds shall rank pari passu with all the existing A Shares, and all ordinary A Shareholders (including those derived from the conversion of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds) whose names are recorded on the register of members of the Company on the record date for dividend distribution shall be entitled to receive the dividend of that period and enjoy equal rights and interests.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
Prior to receipt of the proceeds from this issuance, the Company will first make investment with its self-raised funds, and depending on the progress of the proceeds funded projects, will replace such funds according to the relevant specified procedures after receipt of the proceeds. With regard to the schedule for the use of proceeds, once the proceeds have been received, the Company will first utilise such proceeds to replace its self-raised funds that have been invested in the above projects prior to the receipt of the proceeds in accordance with the specified procedures, which include the issuance of a report by the accountants certifying the pre-invested funds and the consideration by the Board. Replacement of the proceeds will be completed within two months following the receipt thereof. Secondly, the Company will use the remaining proceeds to finance the construction expenditures of the above projects and disburse such proceeds according to the progress of construction.
If the actual amount of proceeds (after deducting the issuance expenses) is less than the amount of proceeds to be invested in the abovementioned projects, the Company will, within the scope of ultimately determined proceeds funded projects, adjust and ultimately decide the specific proceeds funded projects, priority, and specific amount of investment in each project according to the actual amount of proceeds and taking into account the Company’s operation and the construction progress of the projects. The insufficient funds that cannot be covered by the proceeds will be raised by the Company itself.
19. Management of proceeds and deposit account
The Company has formulated a system for the management of the proceeds. The proceeds from the issuance of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds must be deposited in a specific account for proceeds as decided by the Board of the Company for centralized management. The Board shall determine specific matters relating to the opening of the account before the issuance.
20. Validity period of the plan for A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds
The A Share Convertible Corporate Bond Issuance Plan is valid for 12 months from the date of approving such issuance plan at the EGM and the Class Meetings of the Company.
The plan for the public issuance of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds shall be implemented subject to the approval of the CSRC, and ultimately subject to the plan approved by the CSRC.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
21. Trustee manager
The Company appointed the lead underwriter for the public issuance of A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds as the trustee manager and entered into a trustee management agreement with the trustee manager for matters relating to the entrusted management.
(2) Authorisation to be granted to the board
Subject to approvals of the Shareholders at the EGM and the Class Meetings, the Board shall be authorised to make such decisions, enter into such documents, amend the Articles of Association, carry out such procedures and take any other such actions as are in its discretion necessary to effect and complete the public issuance of A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds.
(3) Reasons for and benefits of the issuance of A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds
The issuance of A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds can meet the Company’s capital requirements for the construction of projects in progress and proposed projects, and expand the scale of its waste incineration power generation business; improve the debt structure, reduce finance costs, and improve the gearing ratio and sustainability of the Company. Based on the management’s estimation of financial data of the Company as at 31 March 2021, after the issuance of A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds, the ratio of current liabilities to total liabilities of the Company decreased from 38.70% to 32.06%, and the current ratio increased from 0.66 to 1.19, representing a more sound debt structure; after the conversion of all the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds, the balance sheet ratio of the Company decreased from 65.84% to 57.94%, representing a significant reduction in the leverage ratio. Based on the benchmark interest rate of 4.9% for a 5-year bank loan, the Company would have to pay interest of RMB117 million per annum on an amount of RMB2,390 million to be raised by means of bank loans, whereas by issuing convertible bonds, the Company would have to pay interest of approximately RMB4.78 million to RMB47.80 million per annum, representing a significant reduction in interest costs. Moreover, no further interest needs to be paid following the conversion of the convertible bonds, which would further reduce the Company’s interest costs. As the price of the Company’s A Shares is significantly higher than the price of its H Shares, the Company has chosen to refinance in the A share market to protect the interests of its shareholders. Compared with other financing instruments, the conversion price of A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds is higher than the reserve price for non-public issuance and rights issue. Therefore, so far as the Shareholders are concerned, the issuance of convertible bonds can help reduce the extent of equity dilution and the impact on earnings per share with the same scale of fund raising, thus maximizing the protection of the interests of original Shareholders. The A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds, being a convertible bond, will be issued at a lower coupon rate compared with other varieties of bonds, with a coupon rate ranging from 0.2 to 2%. By replacing the Company’s original debt with such convertible bonds, the interest payment pressure of the Company can be effectively reduced.
– 19 –
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
(4) Basis of determination of coupon rate of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds
In determining the coupon rate of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds, the Company and the underwriter will make reference to, among others, (i) the interest rates of the convertible bonds issued by other PRC issuers (the “ Market Comparables ”) with a size comparable to that of the Company around the time of determination of coupon rate; (ii) the then trading price of A Shares of the Company; (iii) the then condition and investment sentiment of the PRC bond market; and (iv) the credit rating of the Company and the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds. The Company expects that the coupon rate of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds will not substantially deviate from that of the Market Comparables.
Taking into account that (i) the determination mechanism of the coupon rate is subject to the approval of the Shareholders at the EGM and the Class Meetings; (ii) the final coupon rate is subject to the approval of the CSRC; (iii) the Company and the underwriter will make reference to other factors as set out in the previous paragraph when determining the coupon rate; (iv) the final coupon rate is expected not to be deviated substantially from that of the Market Comparables; (v) the determination mechanism of the coupon rate is in compliance with the applicable laws and regulations in the PRC, the Board therefore considers that the proposed determination mechanism of the coupon rate of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds is fair and reasonable and in the interest of the Shareholders and the Company as a whole.
(5) Implications on the proposed issuance of A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds under the PRC regulatory requirements
The A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds proposed to be issued by the Company may lead to the issuance of new A Shares upon the exercise of the conversion rights of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds, the actual number of which depends on a number of factors, including the conversion price of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds. The Board considers that the conversion of A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds into new A Shares will dilute the interests of the existing A Shareholders and H Shareholders in the Company’s share capital.
Pursuant to the Articles and the provisions of the relevant PRC laws and regulations, the Proposed Issuance of A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds shall be subject to, among others, the Shareholders’ approvals at the general meetings and the Class Meetings, and approvals from the relevant PRC regulatory authorities.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
(6) Equity fund raising activities in the past twelve months
On 9 December 2020, the Company completed a non-public A share issuance of 232,240,000 A Shares in total. The net proceeds raised therefrom amounted to approximately RMB1.786 billion. As at 31 December 2020, approximately RMB1.725 billion of the proceeds was utilized by the Company to replace those funds for investment projects with the proceeds, to repay bank loans and to increase capital and provide borrowings to wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Company utilized the proceeds to repay a bank loan of RMB1 million in January 2021; the remaining RMB60 million to finance the registered capital of wholly-owned subsidiaries in July 2021.
Save as disclosed above, the Company has not conducted any fundraising activities involving the issuance of equity securities during the 12 months immediately before the Latest Practicable Date.
(7) Implications of the proposed issuance of A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds on the shareholding structure of the Company
Based on the A Share Convertible Corporate Bond Issuance Plan, the initial conversion price of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds shall not be lower than the higher of the average trading price of A Shares during the 20 trading days immediately preceding the date of publication of the Offering Document (in the event that during such 20 trading days, the share price has been adjusted due to ex-rights or ex-dividend, the closing price for the trading days before the adjustment shall be accordingly adjusted with reference to the adjusted share price following the ex-rights or ex-dividend) and the average trading price of A Shares on the trading day immediately preceding the date of publication of the Offering Document; and shall not be lower than the latest audited net asset value per Share and the par value per Share. The actual initial conversion price shall be determined, before issuance, by the Board upon negotiation with the sponsor (the lead underwriter) in accordance with the market conditions, subject to the authorisation by the Shareholders at the general meetings and the Class Meetings.
For reference only and to illustrate the abovementioned pricing mechanism, assuming that, the Offering Document has been issued on Latest Practicable Date, the average trading price of A Shares during the 20 trading days immediately preceding Latest Practicable Date is RMB8.67 per Share and the average trading price of A Shares on the trading day immediately preceding Latest Practicable Date is RMB8.67 per Share, the latest audited net asset value per Share is RMB4.07, and the par value per Share is RMB1.00, the minimum initial conversion price on Latest Practicable Date will be RMB8.67 per Share, being the higher of the abovementioned average trading prices. For the avoidance of doubt, the actual initial conversion price shall be determined by the Board before the issuance of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds. Based on the minimum initial conversion price of RMB8.67 per Share and the maximum issuance size of the A Share Convertible

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
The conversion price is subject to adjustments in certain events subsequent to the issuance of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds, such as distribution of share dividends, capitalisation, issuance of new shares or rights issue and distribution of cash dividends (excluding any increase in the share capital as a result of conversion of the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds).
Under such circumstances, the Company will adjust the conversion price in accordance with the determined method, and an announcement in relation to resolutions of the Board will be made on the website of Shanghai Stock Exchange and on the media designated by CSRC for information disclosure of listed companies. Such an announcement will indicate the date of the adjustment to the conversion price, method of the adjustment and suspension period of share conversion (if necessary). Meanwhile, the Company shall disclose such information to the Hong Kong market in accordance with the Listing Rules and the Articles (if necessary). For details of the computation for conversion price, please also refer to the chapters “II. PROPOSED ISSUANCE OF A SHARE CONVERTIBLE CORPORATE BONDS — (1) Proposed Issuance of A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds — 9. Determination and adjustment of the conversion price” and “II. PROPOSED ISSUANCE OF A SHARE CONVERTIBLE CORPORATE BONDS — (1) Proposed Issuance of A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds — 10. Terms of downward adjustment to conversion price” in this circular.
(8) The public issuance of A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds not leading to changes in the control of the company
As at the Latest Practicable Date, BSAM, a controlling shareholder of the Company, held 618,945,410 shares in the Company, representing approximately 44.42% of the total share capital of the Company.
The total amount of A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds to be issued under the Public Issuance of A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds of the Company will not exceed RMB2.39 billion. If BSAM does not exercise the right of first refusal under the Public Issuance of A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds and does not subscribe for the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds to be issued thereunder, BSAM will still remain the controlling shareholder of the Company after completion of the Public Issuance of A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds and conversion in full of all the A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds into A Shares at a minimum initial conversion price of RMB8.67 per share.
Therefore, the Public Issuance of A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds and the Possible Subscription for A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds by BSAM will not lead to changes in the control of the Company, and will not lead to a distribution of its shareholding which cannot satisfy relevant listing conditions.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
Pursuant to Rule 13.39(4) of the Listing Rules, any vote of the Shareholders should be taken at a general meeting of the Company by poll except where the Chairman, in good faith, decides to allow a resolution which relates purely to procedural or administrative matter to be voted on by a show of hands. An announcement of the poll result will be made by the Company after the EGM and the H Shares Class Meeting in the manner prescribed under Rule 13.39(5) of the Listing Rules.
IV. RECOMMENDATION
The Board has passed the relevant resolution of the proposals to be submitted to the Shareholders for consideration and approval. No Directors are interested or deemed to be materially interested in the above transaction. Therefore, no Directors shall abstain from voting on the relevant resolutions at relevant Board meetings.
The Board also considers non-public issue of shares, and bond issues and other financial channels. On the basis that (1) the non-public issue of A Shares usually requires an issue price to be determined at 80% of the average trading price of the Company’s shares during the 20 trading days prior to the pricing base date, which has more dilutive effect on the original Shareholders; (2) the interest rate for issuance of corporate bonds is relatively higher. The interest rate for the issuance of 5-year corporate bonds with the same rating is expected to be 4.5%-5%, while the coupon rate of convertible bonds is between 0.2% and 2%, with relatively lesser interest expenses. In addition, there are very few successful issuances of corporate bonds with maturity of more than 5 years in the domestic bond market at present, which is not conducive to the optimisation of the Company's debt structure; and (3) in the long run, convertible bonds are conducive to reducing the Company’s gearing ratio, the Board recommends the adoption of convertible bonds for fund raising.
In addition, given that (1) the initial conversion price of convertible bonds is not lower than the higher of the average trading price of the Company’s A Shares during the 20 trading days immediately preceding the date of publication of the Offering Document and the average trading price of the Company’s A shares for the previous trading day, representing a higher basis for pricing the conversion price; (2) the convertible bonds will not be convertible until six months after issue, and the bond holders will gradually convert their bonds according to the Company’s share price, thus will not have an immediate dilutive effect on the interests of original Shareholders; (3) the convertible bonds are subject to a redemption clause which allows the Company to redeem the convertible bonds in the event of a significant increase in the Company’s share price to avoid significant dilution to the interests of original Shareholders; and (4) shareholders’ returns will be increased after the proceeds funded projects are completed and put into operation, the Board considers that the terms of the Proposed Issuance of A Share Convertible Bonds are fair and reasonable and in the best interests of the Shareholders.
In view of the factors above, the Board (including all independent non-executive Directors) is of the view that the resolutions to be proposed at the EGM and/or the H Shares Class Meeting (if applicable) are in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. Accordingly, the Board recommends the Shareholders to vote in favor of such resolutions at the EGM and/or the H Shares Class Meeting (if applicable).

APPENDIX I
PROPOSAL OF THE PROPOSED ISSUANCE OF A SHARE CONVERTIBLE CORPORATE BONDS
(V) Interest rate
The Board proposed to the shareholders at the General Meeting to authorise the Board or persons authorized by the Board to determine the method of determining the nominal interest rate as well as the final interest rate for each interest accrual year upon negotiation with the sponsor (the lead underwriter) in accordance with national policies, market conditions and the actual conditions of the Company before the Issuance of the Convertible Bonds.
(VI) Method and timing of interest payment and repayment of the principal
The interest of the Convertible Bonds will be paid annually. The principal will be repaid and the interest for the final year will be paid upon maturity.
1. Calculation of annual interest
The interest for an interest accrual year (hereafter referred to as the “ Annual Interest ”) means the interest accrued to a bondholder in each year on each anniversary of the date of issuance of the Convertible Bonds which is calculated based on the aggregate nominal value of the Convertible Bonds held by him/her.
The formula for calculating the Annual Interest is: I=B×i
-
I: denotes the Annual Interest;
-
B: denotes the aggregate nominal value of the Convertible Bonds held by a Convertible Bonds holder as at the record date for interest payment in an interest accrual year (“ that year ” or “ each year ”);
-
i: denotes the nominal interest rate of the Convertible Bonds of that year.
2.
Method of interest payment
-
(1) The interest of the Convertible Bonds will be paid annually, accruing from the date of the issuance of the Convertible Bonds.
-
(2) Interest payment date: The interest is payable annually on each anniversary of the date of the Issuance of the Convertible Bonds. Where such a date falls on a statutory holiday or rest day, the interest payment date shall be postponed to the next working day, with no additional interest accrued during the period of postponement.
– I-8 –
APPENDIX I
PROPOSAL OF THE PROPOSED ISSUANCE OF A SHARE CONVERTIBLE CORPORATE BONDS
The period between any two consecutive interest payment dates will be an interest accrual year.
-
(3) Record date for interest payment: The record date for interest payment in each year will be the trading day immediately preceding the interest payment date. The Company will pay the interest accrued for that year within five trading days from the interest payment date. Where a Convertible Bond holder converts his/her Convertible Bonds into A shares on or before the record date for interest payment in any interest accrual year, that Convertible Bond holder shall not be entitled to any interest for that year and any subsequent interest accrual year.
-
(4) Tax payable on the interest income of a Convertible Bond holder shall be borne by such holder him/herself.
(VII) Conversion period
The conversion period of the Convertible Bonds shall commence on the first trading day immediately following the expiry of the six-month period after the date of the issuance of the Convertible Bonds, and end on the maturity date of the Convertible Bonds.
(VIII) Security
No security will be provided in relation to the Issuance.
(IX) Determination and adjustment of the conversion price
1. Basis for determining the initial conversion price
The initial conversion price of the Convertible Bonds shall not be lower than the higher of the average trading price of A shares during the 20 trading days immediately preceding the date of publication of the offering document (in the event that during such 20 trading days, the share price has been adjusted due to ex-rights or ex-dividend, the average share price for the trading days before the adjustment shall be accordingly adjusted with reference to the adjusted share price following the ex-rights or ex-dividend) and the average trading price of A shares on the trading day immediately preceding the date of publication of the offering document; and shall not be lower than the latest audited net asset value per share and the par value per Share. The actual initial conversion price shall be determined by the Board or persons authorised by the Board upon negotiation with the sponsor (the lead underwriter) in accordance with the market conditions before the Issuance, subject to the authorisation by the shareholders at the General Meeting.
– I-9 –
APPENDIX I PROPOSAL OF THE PROPOSED ISSUANCE OF A SHARE CONVERTIBLE CORPORATE BONDS
The average trading price of A shares for the 20 trading days immediately preceding the date of publication of the offering document = the total trading amount of A shares during such 20 trading days/the total trading volume of A shares during such 20 trading days;
The average trading price of A shares for the trading day immediately preceding the date of publication of the offering document = the total trading amount of A shares on such a trading day/the total trading volume of A shares on such a trading day.
2. Method of adjustment to the conversion price and the calculation formula
The conversion price is subject to adjustments in certain events that lead to changes in the number of shares of the Company subsequent to the Issuance, such as distribution of share dividends, capitalisation, issuance of new shares or rights issue and distribution of cash dividends (excluding any increase in the share capital as a result of conversion of the Convertible Bonds). The Company will adjust the conversion price based on the following formula (rounded off to two decimal places):
Distribution of share dividends or capitalisation: P1=P0/(1+n);
Issuance of new shares or rights issue: P1=(P0+A×k)/(1+k);
The above two events occurring concurrently: P1=(P0+A×k)/(1+n+k);
Distribution of cash dividends: P1=P0-D;
The above three events occurring concurrently: P1 = (P0-D+A×k)/(1+n+k).
In the aforesaid formulae, “P0” denotes the conversion price before the adjustment; “n” denotes the rate of distribution of share dividends or capitalisation; “k” denotes the rate of issuance of new shares or rights issue; “A” denotes the price of issuance of new shares or rights issue; “D” denotes the cash dividend per share and “P1” denotes the adjusted conversion price.
Upon occurrence of any of the above-mentioned changes in shares and/ or shareholders’ interests, the Company will adjust the conversion price in accordance with the above method, and an announcement in relation to resolutions of the Board will be made on the websites of Shanghai Stock Exchange and on the media designated by CSRC for information disclosure of listed companies.

APPENDIX I PROPOSAL OF THE PROPOSED ISSUANCE OF A SHARE CONVERTIBLE CORPORATE BONDS
Rules Governing the Listing Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited and the articles of association of the Company (if necessary). If the conversion price adjustment date is on or after the date on which a Convertible Bond holder applies for conversion of his/her Convertible Bonds but before the registration date of the shares to be issued upon conversion, such conversion will be executed based on the adjusted conversion price.
In the event that the Convertible Bond holders’ interests or the interests derived from the share conversion are affected by the change in the Company’s share class, quantity and/or shareholders’ interests due to any possible share repurchase, consolidation, division or any other circumstances, the Company will adjust the conversion price based on the actual situations and in accordance with the principles of fairness, justice and equality so as to fully protect the interests of the Convertible Bond holders. The details of the adjustment to the conversion price and its implementation measures shall be determined in accordance with the relevant national laws and regulations and the relevant requirements of the securities regulatory authorities.
(X) Terms of downward adjustment to conversion price
1. Authorisation and magnitude of adjustment
If, during the term of the Convertible Bonds, the closing prices of A shares in at least 15 trading days out of any 30 consecutive trading days are lower than 85% (excluding 85%) of the prevailing conversion price, the Board may propose a downward adjustment to the conversion price to shareholders at the general meetings and the class meetings for their consideration and approval.
The abovementioned proposal is subject to approvals of more than two-thirds of the voting rights of the shareholders who attend the general meeting and the class meetings. Shareholders who hold the Convertible Bonds should abstain from voting at the General Meeting. The adjusted conversion price should be no less than the higher of the average trading price of A shares during the 20 trading days immediately preceding the date of the aforementioned General Meeting and the average trading price of A shares on the trading day immediately preceding the date of such General Meeting. At the same time, the adjusted conversion price shall not be lower than the latest audited net asset value per share and par value per share.
In the event that an adjustment to the conversion price by the Company is made during the aforementioned 30 trading days, in respect of the trading days prior to the adjustment to the conversion price, the calculation shall be based on the unadjusted conversion price and the closing price of the A shares on each such day, while in respect of the trading day on which adjustment to the conversion price is made and the trading days afterwards, the calculation shall be based on the adjusted conversion price and the closing price of the A shares on each such day.

2. Procedures of adjustment
In the event that the Company decides to adjust the conversion price downwards, the Company shall publish an announcement in connection therewith on the website of Shanghai Stock Exchange and media designated by the CSRC for information disclosure of listed companies. Such announcement shall disclose information including the magnitude of the adjustment, the suspension period of share conversion, and other relevant information. Meanwhile, the Company shall disclose the information to the Hong Kong market in accordance with the Rules Governing the Listing Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited and the articles of association of the Company (if necessary). Application for conversion of the Convertible Bonds at the adjusted conversion price shall be resumed upon the conversion price adjustment date.
If the conversion price adjustment date is on or after the date of the application for conversion but before the registration date of the shares to be issued upon conversion, such conversion will be executed based on the adjusted conversion price.
(XI) Method of determining the number of shares for conversion
Where a Convertible Bond holder applies to convert his/her Convertible Bonds into A shares during the conversion period, the formula for calculating the number of A shares to be issued upon conversion is as below:
Q = V/P, any fractional share shall be rounded down to the nearest integer.
Where, V denotes the aggregate nominal value of the Convertible Bonds in respect of which the Convertible Bond holder applies for conversion.
P: denotes the effective conversion price on the date of application for conversion.
Within five trading days from the date of conversion by a Convertible Bond holder, the Company shall pay the Convertible Bond holder in cash an amount equal to the remaining balance of such Convertible Bonds which is insufficient to be converted into one A share and the interest accrued on such balance in accordance with the relevant requirements of the Shanghai Stock Exchange and such other authorities.
(XII) Terms of redemption
1. Terms of redemption upon maturity
Within five trading days upon maturity of the Convertible Bonds, the Company will redeem the Convertible Bonds which have not been converted into A shares by then, at a price determined by the Board or persons authorized by the Board upon negotiation with the sponsor (the lead

(1) where the closing prices of A shares for at least 15 trading days out of 30 consecutive trading days during the conversion period are no less than 130% (including 130%) of the prevailing conversion price;
-
(2) where the balance of the outstanding Convertible Bonds under the issuance is lower than RMB30 million.
Formula for calculating the then accrued interest is: IA=B×i×t/365
-
IA: denotes the accrued interest for the current period;
-
B: denotes the aggregate nominal value of the Convertible Bonds to be deemed that are held by the Convertible Bond holders under the Issuance;
-
i: denotes the nominal interest rate of the Convertible Bonds for current year;
-
t: denotes the number of days on which interest is accrued, i.e. the actual number of calendar days from the last interest payment date up to the redemption date of that interest accrual year (including the last interest-payment date and excluding the redemption date).
In the event that an adjustment to the conversion price is made during the aforesaid 30 trading days, the amount for trading days prior to the date of the adjustment shall be calculated based on the conversion price and the closing price of the A shares before the adjustment, while the amount for trading days after the adjustment shall be calculated based on the conversion price and the closing price after the date of the adjustment.

(XIII) Terms of sale back
1. Terms of conditional sale back
During the last two interest accrual years within the term of the Convertible Bonds, if the closing prices of the A shares of the Company on any 30 consecutive trading days are lower than 70% (excluding 70%) of the prevailing conversion price, the Convertible Bond holders are entitled to sell back all or part of the Convertible Bonds they hold to the Company at par plus the then accrued interest.
In the event that an adjustment to the conversion price by the Company is made due to distribution of share dividends, conversion or increase of share capital, issuance of new shares (excluding any increase in the share capital as a result of conversion of the Convertible Bonds) or rights issue, distribution of cash dividends during the aforementioned trading days, in respect of the trading days prior to the adjustment, the calculation shall be based on the unadjusted conversion price and the closing price of the A shares on each such day, and in respect of the trading days after the adjustment, the calculation shall be based on the adjusted conversion price and the closing price of the A shares on each such day. In the event that there is a downward adjustment to the conversion price, the aforesaid “30 consecutive trading days” shall be re-counted from the first trading day following the adjustment to the conversion price.
The Convertible Bond holders can exercise their sale back rights once every year when the sale back conditions are initially satisfied according to the abovementioned agreed terms in the last two interest accrual years within the term of the Convertible Bonds. If the sale back conditions are initially satisfied, but the Convertible Bond holders do not apply for and exercise their sale back rights during the sale back declaration period then announced by the Company, they shall not exercise the sale back rights during such interest accrual years.

2. Additional terms of sale back
If the actual use of the proceeds raised from the Issuance of the Convertible Bonds significantly differs from the undertakings of the use of proceeds set out by the Company in the offering document, and such change is considered by the CSRC as a deviation in the use of proceeds, the Convertible Bonds holders shall be entitled to a one-off right to sell all or part of the Convertible Bonds they hold back to the Company at par plus then accrued interest.

II. BACKGROUND AND NECESSITY OF PROCEEDS FUNDED PROJECTS
(i) Background of Project Investment
1. The 14th Five-Year Plan encourages municipal solid waste sorting and waste incineration
The Plan on the Development of Municipal Solid Waste Soring and Treatment Facilities for the 14th Five-Year Plan Period 《「十四五」城鎮生活( 垃圾分類和處理設施發展規劃》) (the “ 14th Five-Year Plan ”) mentions that municipal solid waste sorting and treatment facilities are an integral part of a city’s environmental infrastructures and the fundamental guarantee for the implementation of waste sorting system and the achievement of waste minimization, waste recycling and environmentally sound management. The plan states that by the end of 2025, 46 key cities, including municipalities, provincial capitals and cities specially designated in the state plan, will further improve their municipal solid waste sorting and treatment capacity; prefecture cities will basically establish the municipal solid waste sorting and treatment system based on practical conditions; counties in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region and its surrounding areas, Yangtze River Delta, Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, Yangtze River Economic Belt, Yellow River Valley and ecological civilization pilot zones, where conditions mature, will basically establish the municipal solid waste sorting and treatment system; other regions are encouraged to actively expand the coverage of waste sorting and treatment facilities. The plan supports established towns to accelerate the improvement of facilities for collection, transport, environmentally sound management of municipal solid wastes. In terms of waste incineration capacity, by the end of 2025, the national municipal solid waste incineration capacity will reach about 800,000 tons per day, and the urban waste incineration capacity will account for about 65% of the overall capacity. The 14th Five-Year Plan states that policy-level support will be offered to qualified enterprises to engage in relevant projects with proceeds from issuance of corporate bonds, debentures and asset-backed securities.

2. Waste incineration power generation benefits from industrial policies and taxation policies
(1) Industrial policies
In June 2018, the CPC Central Committee and the State Council released the Opinions on Comprehensively Strengthening Ecological and Environmental Protection and Promoting Triumph in the Uphill Battle for Prevention and Control of Pollution 《關於全面加強生態環境( 保護堅決打好污染防治攻堅戰的意見》), which explicitly proposed in the section headed “Accelerating the Development of Waste Sorting and Treatment” that “waste recycling will be promoted, and vigorous efforts will be made to develop waste incineration power generation”.
In December 2018, the General Office of the State Council released the Work Plan for the Pilot Program of “Zero-Waste City” Building (Guo Ban Fa [2018] No. 128) 《「無廢城市」建設試點工作方案》( (國辦發 [2018]128號)), which proposed the “zero-waste city” management concept and required that waste recycling including reuse of recyclable wastes, waste incineration power generation and biological treatment should be promoted.
In July 2020, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development and the Ministry of Ecology and Environment jointly released the Implementation Plan to Bolster Areas of Weakness in Municipal Solid Waste Sorting and Treatment Facilities (《城鎮生活垃圾分類和處理設施補 短板強弱項實施方案》). The document proposed that vigorous efforts should be made to improve the waste incineration capacity; areas disposing municipal solid waste exceeding 300 tons per day should accelerate the development of waste treatment that takes incineration as the principal way; waste incineration facilities should be built with moderate forward thinking to match the amount of municipal solid waste to be disposed of; “zero landfill” of raw municipal solid wastes will be basically achieved by 2023.
In March 2021, the Outline of the 14th Five-Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development and the Long-Range Objectives Through the Year 2035 stated that efforts will be made to comprehensively improve the level of environmental infrastructure and build a domestic waste treatment system for differentiated storage, collection, transport and treatment.

(2) Taxation policies
In March 2012, the National Development and Reform Commission released the Notice of the National Development and Reform Commission on Improving the Tariff Policy for Waste Incineration Power Generation (Fa Gai Jia Ge [2012] No. 801) (《國家發展 改革委關於完善垃圾焚燒發電價格政策的通知》(發改價格[2012]801號)). The notice further improved the tariff policy for waste incineration power generation and required that “waste incineration power generation projects that take municipal solid wastes as raw materials should settle the price by translating the incoming waste disposal to on-grid energy, with the translation of one ton of municipal solid waste to on-grid energy tentatively being 280 KWH, and exercise the national unified benchmark tariff for waste incineration power generation of RMB0.65 per KWH (inclusive of tax); other on-grid energies exercise the local feed-in tariff for similar coal-fired power generating units.”
According to the Catalogue of Value-Added Tax Preferences for Products and Labor Services Involving the Comprehensive Utilization of Resources (Cai Shui [2015] No. 78) 《資源綜合利用產品和勞務增值稅( 優惠目錄》(財稅[2015]78號)), enterprises that take wastes as materials for electric power or thermal power generation, use wastes as over 80% of power generation materials and meet the emission standards may be recognized as state-encouraged enterprises that comprehensively utilize resources and may enjoy the preferential VAT policy of immediate refund upon payment. 70 percent of value-added taxes paid in respect of waste disposal services enjoy the policy of immediate refund upon payment. According to the Enterprise Income Tax Law and its implementation regulation, incomes from environmental protection, energy and water conservation projects that meet the required conditions are exempt from enterprise income taxes for the first year to third year from the taxable year when such projects record the first operating income and enjoy the preferential policy of halved levy in the fourth year to sixth year.
The State’s industrial policies and taxation policies on waste incineration power generation have greatly supported the rapid development of waste incineration power generation enterprises.

3. Domestic waste incineration technologies continue to improve
Municipal solid waste incineration power generation is a complicated and systematically integrated technology program, which comprises a series of sophisticated system technologies including waste incineration, waste heat power generation, flue-gas treatment, leachate treatment and residue treatment.
China witnesses significant improvement of municipal solid waste incineration technologies, as a group of domestic leading enterprises and research and development institutes continuously upgrade and innovate the technologies according to the characteristics of municipal solid wastes in China, which is on the basis of absorbing advanced waste incineration technologies of other counties, and some enterprises with strong technical strength accumulate a series of mature technologies with proprietary intellectual property rights in process and technology, and equipment development and manufacturing. As China achieves continuous development of waste incineration research and development strength, waste incineration equipment achieves increasingly higher domestication, which lays a solid foundation for the development of waste incineration power generation industry in China.
(ii) Necessity of the Projects
1. Requirements of developing the circular economy and improving social benefits
The level of municipal solid waste treatment is a mark of the civilization, economic strength and technical strength of a city and a mirror of the environmental awareness and modern consciousness of city administrators. Municipal solid waste management and pollution prevention and control have become an important part of urban environmental protection.
Proceeds funded projects use municipal solid wastes as raw materials and achieve waste minimization via incineration, and the heat produced from incineration can generate power and realize waste recycling. The construction and operation of such proceeds funded projects can effectively solve the problem of waste pollution and resource recycling, generate considerable economic and social benefits, and therefore achieve a harmony of material circulation between the economic system and the natural system.

After these proceeds funded projects are put into operation, the Company will witness greater municipal solid waste treatment business scale and stronger regional radiation capability, and consolidate its market position.
III. FEASIBILITY OF PROCEEDS FUNDED PROJECTS
(i) Waste incineration industry has considerable development potential
As the urbanization develops continuously, the amount of municipal solid waste to be collected and disposed of will increase significantly. In 2020, China had an urban population of 902,000,000; from 2008 to 2020, the urbanization rate grew from 46.99% to 63.89%. According to the estimate of China’s National Health Commission, China’s urbanization rate will reach about 70% in 2030; further promotion of urbanization will certainly boost the sustainable growth of waste treatment demands, and the market of environmentally sound management of municipal solid wastes is expected to develop continuously.
According to China Urban Construction Statistical Yearbook 《中國城市建設( 統計年鑒》), the amount of municipal solid waste under China’s environmentally sound management reached 240,000,000 tons in 2019, including 122,000,000 tons through incineration, which accounted for approximately 51% of the overall amount; the daily municipal solid waste incineration capacity was 457,600 tons in 2019. Compared with the targets of 14th Five-Year Plan, the proportion of waste incineration being 65% and the daily incineration capacity being 800,000 tons, the aforesaid data indicate a considerable growth potential and space.

Therefore, the replenishment of working capital and repayment of bank loans will help the Company to effectively relieve the financial pressure, strengthen the competitiveness, reinforce the risk resistance ability, and is necessary and reasonable.
- V. IMPACT OF THE ISSUANCE OF CONVERTIBLE CORPORATE BONDS ON OPERATION MANAGEMENT AND FINANCIAL POSITION OF THE COMPANY
(i) Impact of the Issuance of Convertible Corporate Bonds on the operation management of the Company
Proceeds funded projects include Dengfeng Project, Enshi Project, Shuozhou Project, Wuhan Phase II Project, Huludao Power Generation Project and replenishment of working capital and repayment of bank loans. These proceeds funded projects are closely related to the Company’s core business, waste incineration power generation, comply with relevant industrial policies released by the State, and have comparatively great development prospect and economic benefits.
The Issuance is conducive to further improving the Company’s profitability, consolidating its market position and strengthening its competitiveness, and lays a solid foundation for its sustainable development.
(ii) Impact of the Issuance of Convertible Corporate Bonds on the financial position of the Company
When the Issuance of Convertible Corporate Bonds is completed, the amounts of total assets and liabilities will increase in the short term. During the term of Convertible Corporate Bonds, the Company shall pay the interests of unconverted Convertible Corporate Bonds at the predetermined coupon rate. However, the proceeds funded projects will gradually bring economic benefits to the Company, and, normally, the profit growth boosted by the Company’s utilization of proceeds from Convertible Corporate Bonds will exceed the payable interests of Convertible Corporate Bonds. The Company’s revenue and profit levels will improve as the proceeds funded projects are implemented.
When part of or all the Convertible Corporate Bonds held by investors are converted into shares, the total share capital and net asset of the Company will increase to some extent, and shareholdings of original shareholders, return on equity and earnings per share of the Company will be diluted to some degree. In addition, the Convertible Corporate Bonds contain terms of downward adjustment to conversion price. If the terms are triggered, the Company may apply for downward adjustment to conversion price, which may lead to the increase in the total of new share capital resulted from the conversion of Convertible Corporate Bonds, and therefore enlarge the potential dilution effect of the conversion of Convertible Corporate Bonds publicly issued on the Company’s original holders of
– II-15 –
APPENDIX II
FEASIBILITY REPORT ON THE USE OF PROCEEDS FROM THE PROPOSED ISSUANCE OF CONVERTIBLE CORPORATE BONDS
original shares. Hence, the current returns following the public issuance of Convertible Corporate Bonds is subject to the dilution risk.
VI. CONCLUSION OF FEASIBILITY ANALYSIS
Based on the foregoing, the proceeds funded projects are out of the Company’s comprehensive consideration based on industry development trends, market prospects and its strategic development plans, can help the Company to expand its scale and reinforce the strength, enhance the competitiveness and promote the sustainable development. These proceeds funded projects confirm to industrial policies released by the State and development needs of the Company, and have a relatively strong profitability and a bright prospect. The utilization of proceeds will bring positive return on investment to the Company, can improve its financial position and create better returns for shareholders.

(I) Key Assumptions and Premises of the Calculation of Financial Indicators
The following assumptions are only for the purpose of measuring the impact of the issuance on the immediate return of the Company. It does not represent the Company’s judgment on the operation and trend of 2021 and 2022, and it is not a profit forecast. Investors should not make investment decisions accordingly, and if investors make investment decisions based on it and incur losses, the Company shall not assume liability for compensation.
-
It is assumed that the macroeconomic environment, industry development trends and the Company’s operations have no material and adverse changes;
-
The influence on the business operation and financial position of the Company (such as finance cost, investment income), etc. when the proceeds from the issuance are credited into account will not be considered;

II. SPECIAL RISK WARNING FOR THE DILUTION OF CURRENT RETURN BY THE PUBLIC ISSUANCE OF CONVERTIBLE CORPORATE BONDS
Upon conversion of the Convertible Corporate Bonds held by investors in part or in whole, the Company’s total share capital and net assets will increase to a certain degree, which will result in a dilution effect on the original shareholding, return on net assets and the earnings per share of the Company to a certain extent. In addition, the public issuance of the Convertible Corporate Bonds is subject to the term of downward adjustment. When the term is triggered, the Company may apply for the downward adjustment of the conversion price, which results in the increase of the total amount of the additional share capital through the public issuance of the Convertible Corporate Bonds, hence enlarging the potential dilution effect on the original ordinary Shareholders of the Company therefrom.
The current return faces dilutive risks after the public issuance of Convertible Corporate Bonds by the Company. Investors are advised to make rational investment and pay attention to investment risks.
III. THE NECESSITY AND FEASIBILITY OF THE ISSUANCE
The investment projects to be funded by the proceeds from the public issuance have been strictly demonstrated, the implementation of which is necessary and feasible. The relevant descriptions are as follows:
(I) The Necessity of the Proceeds Funded Projects
1. The Need to Develop Circular Economy and Improve Social Benefits
The level of municipal solid waste disposal is a sign of the degree of civilization, economic strength, scientific and technological strength of a city, as well as the environmental awareness and modern consciousness of city regulators. Domestic waste management and pollution prevention have become an important part of urban environmental protection.
The projects invested and constructed with proceeds raised this time use municipal solid waste as raw materials, and has achieved waste reduction after incineration treatment, and the heat generated by incineration treatment has realized resource recycling through power generation. The construction and operation of the proceeds funded investment projects can effectively solve the problems of urban waste pollution and resource recovery, obtain greater economic and social benefits, and achieve harmony between the economic system and the natural system in terms of material circulation.

APPENDIX III DILUTION OF IMMEDIATE RETURN RESULTING FROM THE PROPOSED ISSUANCE OF A SHARE CONVERTIBLE CORPORATE BONDS, THE REMEDIAL MEASURES ADOPTED BY THE COMPANY AND UNDERTAKINGS ISSUED BY RELEVANT SUBJECTS
2. The Need to Enhance the Competitiveness of the Company in the Industry
The Company is among the first companies to explore industrial applications for waste treatment in the PRC, and is also one of the earliest enterprises to focus on upgrading and further developing advanced international waste-to-energy technologies in the PRC. Since its establishment in 2000, the Company has accumulated extensive experience in project investment, construction and operation management. It has been recognised as the “Top 10 Most Influential Solid Waste Enterprises” for eleven consecutive years, which has accumulated abundant resources and established a good reputation.
Under the background of the great development of the environmental protection industry, the Company is based on its own advantages and actively strives for new projects, with remarkable results in market development. After these proceeds funded projects are put into operation, the Company will witness greater municipal solid waste treatment business scale and stronger regional radiation capability, and consolidate its market position.
(II) The Feasibility of Proceeds Funded Projects
1. Considerable Development Space for Waste Incineration Power Generation
With the continuous development of urbanization, the collection and transportation volume of domestic waste will also increase substantially. In 2020, the urban population reached 902 million in China; from 2008 to 2020, the urbanization rate increased from 46.99% to 63.89% in China. According to the calculations of the National Health and Family Planning Commission, the urbanization rate will reach about 70% in 2030 in China. The continuous advancement of urbanization will inevitably drive the sustainable growth of demand for waste treatment, and the market for the hazard-free treatment of domestic waste is expected to continue to develop.
According to the China Urban Construction Statistical Yearbook, the hazard-free treatment of municipal solid waste in China in 2019 was 240 million tons, of which 122 million tons were treated by incineration, accounting for approximately 51%; the daily treatment capacity of municipal solid waste incineration in China in 2019 was 457,600 tons. Compared with the targets of the Plan on the Development of Municipal Solid Waste Soring and Treatment Facilities for the 14th Five-Year Plan Period 《「十四五」城鎮生活( 垃圾分類和處理設施發展規劃》), i.e. the proportion of waste incineration being 65% and the daily incineration capacity being 800,000 tons, the aforesaid data indicate a considerable growth potential and space.

2. The Waste Incineration Power Generation Benefits from Industrial Policies and Taxation Policies
- (1) Industrial Policies
In June 2018, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council promulgated the Opinion on Strengthening Ecological Environment Protection in a Comprehensive Manner to Facilitate Pollution Prevention and Control (《關於全面加強生態環境保護 堅決打好污染防治攻堅戰的意見》), which explicitly proposed that “waste recycling will be promoted, and vigorous efforts will be made to develop waste incineration power generation” in the section of “Accelerating Waste Sorting and Disposal”.
In December 2018, the General Office of the State Council issued the Working Plan for the Pilot Construction of “Waste-Free City” 《( ”無 廢城市”建設試點工作方案》) (Guo Ban Fa [2018] No. 128), proposing the management concept of “Waste-free City” and requiring the promotion of recycling of recyclables, waste incineration power generation, biological treatment, etc.
In July 2020, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Housing and Urban Rural Development, and the Ministry of Ecology and Environment jointly issued the Implementation Plan for Strengthening Weaknesses of Municipal Solid Waste Sorting and Treatment Facilities 《城鎮生活垃圾分類和處理設施補短板強弱項實( 施方案》), proposing to vigorously improve the waste incineration treatment capacity and stipulating that in areas where the daily domestic waste removal volume is more than 300 tons, it is necessary to accelerate the development of waste treatment methods with a focus on incineration, and moderately advance the construction of incineration facilities that are compatible with the daily domestic waste removal volume to basically achieve “zero landfilling” of primary domestic waste by 2023.
In March 2021, the 14th Five-Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development of the People’s Republic of China and the Outline of the Vision 2035 pointed out that it is necessary to comprehensively improve the level of environmental infrastructure and establish a domestic waste treatment system that includes sorted placement, sorted collection, sorted transportation and sorted disposal.

(2) Taxation Policies
In March 2012, the National Development and Reform Commission released the Notice of the National Development and Reform Commission on Improving the Tariff Policy for Waste Incineration Power Generation (Fa Gai Jia Ge [2012] No. 801) (《國家發展 改革委關於完善垃圾焚燒發電價格政策的通知》(發改價格[2012]801號)). The notice further improved the tariff policy for waste incineration power generation and required that “waste incineration power generation projects that take municipal solid wastes as raw materials should settle the price by translating the incoming waste disposal to on-grid energy, with the translation of one ton of municipal solid waste to on-grid energy tentatively being 280 KWH, and exercise the national unified benchmark tariff for waste incineration power generation of RMB0.65 per KWH (inclusive of tax); other on-grid energies exercise the local feed-in tariff for similar coal-fired power generating units.”
According to the Catalogue of Value-Added Tax Preferences for Products and Labor Services Involving the Comprehensive Utilization of Resources (Cai Shui [2015] No. 78) 《資源綜合利用產品和勞務增值稅( 優惠目錄》(財稅[2015]78號)), enterprises that take wastes as materials for electric power or thermal power generation, use wastes as over 80% of power generation materials and meet the emission standards may be recognized as state-encouraged enterprises that comprehensively utilize resources and may enjoy the preferential VAT policy of immediate refund upon payment. 70 percent of value-added taxes paid in respect of waste disposal services enjoy the policy of immediate refund upon payment. According to the Enterprise Income Tax Law and its implementation regulation, incomes from environmental protection, energy and water conservation projects that meet the required conditions are exempt from enterprise income taxes for the first year to third year from the taxable year when such projects record the first operating income and enjoy the preferential policy of halved levy in the fourth year to sixth year.
The State’s industrial policies and taxation policies on waste incineration power generation have greatly supported the rapid development of waste incineration power generation enterprises.
