SUBSEQUENT EVENTS Security Purchase Agreement On July 11, 2018, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Iliad Research and Trading, L.P., a Utah limited partnership (the “Purchaser”), pursuant to which the Company sold and issued to the Purchaser a Convertible Promissory Note (the “Note”) in the amount of $1,070,000. The Purchaser purchased the Note with an original issue discount of $50,000, and the Company agreed to pay to the Purchaser $20,000 for fees and costs incurred by Purchaser in connection with the consummation of the Purchase Agreement. The Note was sold to the Purchaser pursuant to an exemption from registration under Regulation D, promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Note bears interest at the rate of 8% per annum. All outstanding principal and accrued interest on the Note will become due and payable on July 11, 2020, subject to a potential one-year extension period during which interest would not accrue. The Company’s obligations under the Note may be prepaid at any time, provided that in such circumstance the Company would pay a 125% premium on any amounts outstanding under the Note. Amounts outstanding under the Note may be converted at any time, at the Lender’s option, into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $3.00 per share, subject to certain adjustments. During the term of the Note, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, enter into or effect certain fundamental business transactions. The Purchaser has the option to redeem the Note at any time after the six month anniversary of the date when the purchase price is delivered to the Company (“Purchase Price Date”) in the amounts of up to 50% of the amount outstanding during the nine month period after Purchase Price Date or any percentage of the amount outstanding under the Note at any time after the nine month anniversary of Purchase Price Date, with such redemption amounts paid in cash or shares of the Company’s common stock, or a combination thereof, at the Company’s election. Acquisition of 18% of Xinhuan On September 30, 2018, Shanghai TCH entered into an Equity Purchase Agreement with Mr. Jihua Wang (“Seller”), pursuant to which Xi’an TCH shall acquire 20% of the outstanding equity interests (the “Acquired Interests”) of Xi’an Xinhuan Energy Co., Ltd. (“Xinhuan”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Shanghai TCH shall purchase the Acquired Interests for an aggregate purchase price of RMB 320 million ($46.72 million) (the “Purchase Price”), which shall be paid as follows: (i) in cash RMB 60 million ($8.76 million); (ii) in the form of 2.6 million shares of the Company’s common stock using a value of $1.90 per share; and (iii) in the form of 17,376,950 shares of the Company’s preferred stock using a value of $1.90 per share. The preferred shares shall have no voting rights but shall have preferential dividend rights to participate in and receive a 15% premium on a per share basis for any dividends declared and paid by the Company on its common stock. The holder of the preferred shares shall have the right to convert the preferred shares into shares of the Company’s common stock on a 1:1 basis after the six month anniversary of the issuance of the preferred shares, but the Holder may only exercise such conversion right to the extent that, after giving effect to the issuance of common stock after such conversion, the Holder would beneficially own less than 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock. The payment of the Purchase Price in the form of the 2.6 million shares of common stock and 17,376,950 shares of the Company’s preferred stock (the “Share Payment”) is contingent on the Company receiving shareholder approval at a special shareholders meeting for the Share Payment, and to create the new class of preferred shares and increase the number of authorized shares of common stock.

In the event that the Share Payment and other matters are not approved at a special meeting of the Company’s shareholders, the parties to the Purchase Agreement shall negotiate another form of payment for the remaining portion of the Purchase Price. The parties to the Purchase Agreement agreed to complete the transactions contemplated thereby within 60 days of the date of the Purchase Agreement or upon the approval of the shareholders of the Company, whichever comes later, and Seller agreed to various restrictions on, and covenants in relation to, its activities pending the completion of the sale of the Acquired Interests.
