Entry into Supplemental
Collaboration Agreement to Source Raw Materials
The Company’s
subsidiary Guizhou Taibang Biological Products Co., Ltd. (“Guizhou Taibang”) entered into a supplemental agreement
on August 1, 2018 (the “2018 Agreement”) to extend the strategic collaboration agreement with Xinjiang Deyuan Bioengineering
Co., Ltd. (“Xinjiang Deyuan”) which was originally entered into in August 2015 (the “2015 Agreement”).
The 2018 Agreement allows Guizhou Taibang to source a total of no less than 500 tonnes of source plasma from Xinjiang Deyuan over
the next three years at the same plasma purchase cost.
Under the 2015 Agreement,
Xinjiang Deyuan entrusted the operation of five of its plasma collection stations to Guizhou Taibang. Through this entrustment
arrangement, Guizhou Taibang sourced around 540 tonnes of raw plasma from Xinjiang Deyuan. The 2018 Agreement incorporates substantially
all of the contractual terms of the 2015 Agreement and expands the number of plasma collection stations entrusted to Guizhou Taibang
to six.
As part of the 2015
Agreement, Guizhou Taibang lent to Xinjiang Deyuan an interest-bearing loan with a principal amount of RMB300 million, which was
secured by a pledge of 58.02% of the equity interest in Xinjiang Deyuan from its controlling shareholder. The loan remained outstanding
as of July 31, 2018 and its term has been extended until July 31, 2021 under the 2018 Agreement. The interest rate and payment
terms related to the loan have also been amended.
The 2018 Agreement
was prepared and executed in Chinese. The foregoing summary of the 2018 Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to
the summary translation thereof, which is included as Exhibit 99.2 to this Form 6-K.
