("Yushu Kingo") and the subsequent sale of creditor rights related to that transaction.

Material Changes
On October 4, 2021, AGM Tianjin (a wholly-owned subsidiary) terminated the Equity Transfer Agreement and Supplement Agreement with the sellers of Yushu Kingo. The termination was driven by the inability to complete construction projects, audits, and due diligence due to the COVID-19 pandemic and related travel restrictions in China. Under the Supplement Agreement, the sellers were obligated to return the advance payment plus 10% interest or transfer real property titles at a 20% discount to market price if they could not pay.
On October 20, 2021, AGM Tianjin entered into a Transfer Agreement to sell all rights and obligations under the terminated agreements to a non-affiliated third party for $5,000,000.
Outlook, Risks, and Contingencies
Management Commentary: The company cites the COVID-19 pandemic, quarantine measures, and economic disruption in China as the primary causes for the failure to complete the Yushu Kingo acquisition.
Risks and Contingencies:
- Collection Risk: The $5,000,000 purchase price for the creditor rights is contingent on the Buyer's ability to pay. The agreement stipulates that failure to pay on time results in damages equal to four times China's loan prime rate (LPR) of the due amount.
- Forward-Looking Statements: The filing includes standard disclaimers that future results may differ materially from expectations due to various risks and uncertainties.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the status of the $5,000,000 payment from the third-party Buyer, specifically the $2.5 million due by December 31, 2021.
- Confirm whether the original sellers of Yushu Kingo have fulfilled their obligation to return the $4,937,663.72 advance payment plus 10% interest, or if the property title transfer contingency was triggered.
- Review the full text of the Transfer Agreement (Exhibit 10.1) for additional covenants or conditions not summarized in this filing.
- Assess the impact of the terminated acquisition on the company's overall liquidity and strategic growth plans.
