above the one year loan prime rate (LPR) in PRC under the 2022 Loan Agreement. This higher interest rate was determined as a result of the negotiation on an arm’s length basis between the Lender and the Borrower, taking into account the prevailing commercial lending rate between companies and the Borrower’s financial standing such as their assets and cash positions.
