In accordance with the Guidelines, a project named “Chaisang River Ecological Wetland Park” is under construction in the areas where our manufacturing facilities and properties are located. In consideration for such relocation, as an owner of the buildings on the state-owned land, we will be compensated. On March 18, 2021, Sichuan Wetouch received a total amount of RMB115.2 million (approximately $17.7 million) as the total amount of compensation from Sichuan Renshou, including RMB100.2 million ($15.4 million) based upon the appraised value of the Properties plus an extra 15% relocation bonus of RMB15.0 million ($2.3 million).

New Facilities

On July 23, 2021, Sichuan Vtouch entered into a contract with the Chengdu Wenjiang District Planning and Natural Resources Bureau for the purchase of a land use right for a parcel of land spanning 131,010 square feet, for a consideration of RMB3,925,233 (equivalent to $537,998) for the Company’s new facility.

On July 27, 2021, Sichuan Vtouch and Sichuan Chunqiu Development and Construction Group Co., Ltd. entered into a construction contract for a project to build the capacitive touch screen and touch machine research and development production base. The contract was estimated to start on August 15, 2021, and to be completed by August 15, 2022, at a provisional price of RMB76,000,000 (approximately $11.9 million). This price is subject to adjustment based on actual completion settlement. However, the construction project has been put on hold due to the outbreak of Covid-19 and government-ordered shutdowns in China. The parties have agreed to extend the term of the contract to December 31, 2024. As of the date of this Annual Report, we estimate that our capital needs for this acquisition and construction will be approximately RMB170.0 million (approximately $26.2 million), but there is no assurance that the estimated amount is sufficient to achieve our goals. We may need additional financing for our new facilities. In addition, we expect that this the construction of buildings and affixtures will be completed by end of 2023 and our production at the new facilities will commence in the third quarter of 2025, but there is no assurance and we may need extended time to achieve our business plan.
