Enterprises and Foreign Enterprises, as for the deduction or exemption of the enterprise income taxes by investment for the purchase
of home-made equipment by foreign investment enterprises and foreign enterprises, the tax amount as deducted or exempted shall be
computed in the light of the enterprise income taxes and the local income taxes as actually collected.

II.

Where a foreign investor of a foreign investment enterprise re-invests the profits got from his investment in China, and if the enterprise
income tax amount of the foreign investment enterprise as actually collected has already deducted or exempted the amount of enterprise
income tax by investment for the purchase of home-made equipment as allowed, the tax refund amount for re-investment shall be computed
according to the actual burden of the enterprise. To be specific, the “original actual applicable enterprise income tax rate” and
the “local income tax rate” in the provisions of Article 82 of the Detailed Rules of Implementing the Law of the People’s Republic
of China on the Income Taxes of Foreign Funded Enterprises and Foreign Enterprises shall be determined in the light of the formulas
as follows:

Original actual applicable enterprise income tax rate = Enterprise income tax amount as actually paid by foreign investment enterprises
in the year of after-tax profits/Payable income tax amount of the foreign investment enterprise in the year

Original actual applicable local income tax rate = Local income tax amount as actually paid by the foreign investment enterprise in
the year of after-tax profits/Payable income tax amount of the foreign investment enterprise in the year
