1. Credit limit
1.1 Under this Agreement, we shall provide you with a credit line (including revolving line and/or one-off line) in the amount of RMB 8 million (including the equivalent in other currencies, the exchange rate of which shall be based on the foreign exchange rate published by us at the time of the actual occurrence of each specific business, hereinafter the same).
If there is any outstanding balance in respect of a specific operation under (insert the name of the agreement here) between Party A (or Party A’s subsidiary) and Party B, it will automatically be included under this agreement and will directly occupy the credit line under this agreement.
1.2 The credit period shall be for a period of months, from 2021.10.31 to 2022.10.30. If Party B needs to use the credit line for specific credit business, it shall submit an application to Party A for the use of the credit line within such period. Party A shall not accept any application for the use of the credit line submitted by Party B beyond the expiry date of the credit line period, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement.
1.3 The types of credit business granted under the credit line include but are not limited to one or more credit businesses such as loans/order loans, trade finance, bill discounting, commercial bill acceptance, commercial bill acceptance/bonding, international/domestic letters of guarantee, customs duty payment guarantee, corporate account overdraft, derivative transactions, gold leasing, etc.
“Trade Finance” includes, but is not limited to, international/domestic letters of credit, import charge, lading guarantee, import collection charge, packaged release, export charge, export negotiation, export collection charge, import/export remittance financing, credit guarantee financing, factoring, bill factoring and other business types.
1.4 Revolving Credit Limit means the maximum amount of the sum of the principal balance of one or more credit facilities referred to in the preceding paragraph that we may provide to you on a continuous and revolving basis during the credit period.
The one-off line of credit refers to the cumulative amount of each type of credit business provided by Party A for Party B during the credit period shall not exceed the amount of the one-off line of credit approved by Party A. Party B shall not recycle the one-off credit line, and the corresponding amount of multiple credit operations applied for by Party B shall occupy the one-off credit line amount until the accumulated amount is full.
2. credit line occupancy arrangements
2.1 Specific credit operations applied for by you and approved by us during the credit period are automatically included in this Agreement and will be covered by the credit limit under this Agreement.
2.2 If Party A applies for factoring business in which Party B is the payer (debtor of the receivables), the credit line mentioned above shall be used for the receivables claims assigned to Party B by Party A from a third party in such business; if Party B applies to Party A for factoring business in which Party B is the payee (creditor of the receivables), the credit line mentioned above shall be used for the purchase of the receivables claims held by Party B paid by Party A to Party B with its own funds or funds from other legal sources. The acquisition amount (off-take payment) of the receivable claims held by Party B will occupy the above credit line.

When classifying an import opening business, if an import charge actually occurs subsequently under the same letter of credit, the import opening and the import charge will occupy the same line of credit at different stages. In other words, when an import charge is made, the amount recovered after the letter of credit is paid out is then used for the import charge and is deemed to be the same amount used for the original import opening.

3.2 Party B must apply for the use of the credit line on a case-by-case basis and submit the materials required by Party A, which will be approved and agreed by Party A on a case-by-case basis. Party A has the right to consider whether or not to agree in conjunction with its internal management requirements and Party B’s business situation, and has the right to unilaterally reject Party B’s application for the use of the credit line without incurring any form of legal liability to Party B. In the event of any inconsistency between this paragraph and other relevant agreements in this Agreement, this paragraph shall prevail.

3.3 When specific credit operations are classified after Party A’s approval and consent, the specific business text (including but not limited to individual agreement/application, framework agreement or specific business contract, etc.) signed by Party A and Party B in respect of the specific credit operations shall form an integral part of the Credit Agreement.
