[1] On July 7, 2016, Shenzhen Huijie Purification System Engineering Co., Ltd ("Shenzhen Huijie"), one of the Company's contractors, filed a lawsuit against CBAK Power in the Peoples' Court of Zhuanghe City, Dalian for the failure to pay pursuant to the terms of the contract and entrusted part of the project of the contract to a third party without their prior consent. The plaintiff sought a total amount of $1,193,301 (RMB8,430,792), including construction costs of $0.9 million (RMB6.1 million), interest of $28,308 (RMB0.2 million) and compensation of $0.3 million (RMB1.9 million), which we already accrued for as of September 30, 2016.
