Ltd (“HongyuanHuifu”) jointly established Hongyuan Recycling Energy Investment Management Beijing Co., Ltd (the “Fund Management Company”) with registered capital of RMB 10 million ($1.6 million), to manage a fund that will be used for financing CDQ WHPG projects. Xi’an TCH made an initial capital contribution of RMB 4 million ($0.65 million) and has a 40% ownership interest in the Fund Management Company. Voting rights and dividend rights are allocated between HongyuanHuifu and Xi’an TCH at 80% and 20%, respectively. The Company accounted for this investment using the equity method. The Company recorded $154,570 and $48,595 equity based investment income during the nine and three months ended September 30, 2016; however, it was eliminated with the financial fee of Zhonghong for the Statement of Income as 100% of Fund Management Company’s revenue is from Zhonghong’s financial fee and Zhonghong is 91.7% owned by Xi’an TCH (see Note 12). Xi’an TCH paid a $1.6 million one-time commission (recorded as other expense) to the Fund Management Company during 2013 for initiating and completing the Fund financing for the Company.
