Company&#8217;s business and technology; the international nature of the Company&#8217;s operations; educational and professional background;

stockholder interests through the exercise of sound judgment, using its diversity of experience. The Nominating and Corporate Governance

salary before the next annual salary review. Furthermore, we may terminate the executive&#8217;s employment at any time without cause

a termination effective prior to the second anniversary of the effective date; and (iii) three months following a termination effective
prior to or any time after the third anniversary of the effective date. The employment agreements provide that the executive will not

<td class="text">CBAK Energy Technology, Inc. (the &#8220;Company&#8221;)
is filing this Amendment No.&#160;1 on Form&#160;10-K/A&#160;(the &#8220;Form&#160;10-K/A&#8221;)&#160;to amend its Annual Report on Form&#160;10-K&#160;for
the fiscal year ended December&#160;31, 2023 (together with the Form&#160;10-K/A,&#160;the &#8220;Form&#160;10-K&#8221;),&#160;filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the &#8220;SEC&#8221;) on March 15, 2024. The purpose of this Form&#160;10-K/A&#160;is solely
to disclose the information required in Part&#160;III (Items 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14) of Form&#160;10-K,&#160;which information was previously
omitted in reliance on General Instruction G(3) to&#160;Form&#160;10-K.&#160;Accordingly, the Company hereby amends and replaces in its
entirety Part III of the Form&#160;10-K.In addition, pursuant to the rules of the SEC,
Item 15 of Part IV has been amended to include the currently dated certifications of the Company&#8217;s principal executive officer and
principal financial officer pursuant to Section&#160;302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. New certifications of the Company&#8217;s
principal executive officer and principal financial officer are filed with this Form&#160;10-K/A&#160;as Exhibits 31.3 and&#160;31.4&#160;hereto.
Because no financial statements have been included in this Form&#160;10-K/A&#160;and this Form&#160;10-K/A&#160;does not contain or amend
any disclosure with respect to Items 307 and 308 of Regulation&#160;S-K,&#160;paragraphs 3, 4 and 5 of the certifications have been omitted.
The Company is not including a new certification under Section&#160;906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 as no financial statements are
being filed with this Form&#160;10-K/A.Except as described above, this Form&#160;10-K/A&#160;does
not amend any other information set forth in the&#160;Form&#160;10-K,&#160;and the Company has not updated disclosures included therein
to reflect any subsequent events. This&#160;Form&#160;10-K/A&#160;should be read in conjunction with the Form&#160;10-K&#160;and with
the Company&#8217;s filings with the SEC subsequent to the Form&#160;10-K.<span></span>
