Note 1: The period of the above change in equity is from the disclosure by the Company of the Detailed Report on Change in Equity of Ming Yang Smart Energy Group Limited on December 16, 2022 to the date of this Announcement. The percentage before change in equity and voting rights percentage before change in equity are calculated based on the Company's total share capital of 2,272,085,706 shares at that time. Due to factors such as the repurchase and cancellation of restricted stocks granted to but not yet vested for some incentive recipients under the 2019 Restricted Stock Incentive Plan, and the cancellation of some repurchased shares, the Company's current total share capital is 2,261,496,706 shares, which is used as the basis for calculating the percentage after change in equity and voting rights percentage after change in equity.
Note 2: Any discrepancy between the total amount and the sum of individual items above is due to rounding.
Note 3: On September 2, 2026, the Company received the Liquidation Report from Hainan Boyun. The actual timing of the equity change shall be subject to the completion date of the non-trade transfer.
III. Other explanations
1. This Change in Equity occurred during the period from the disclosure of the Detailed Report on Change in Equity of Ming Yang Smart Energy Group Limited on December 16, 2022 to the date of this Announcement, and specifically includes the following: (1) Dissolution and liquidation of Hainan Boyun, a party acting in concert with the controlling shareholder, and the proposed registration of shares in the names of each partner through a non-trading transfer of securities. (2) Increase in holdings by the Company's Actual Controller in the secondary market and the acquisition of shares of MYSE through a non-trading transfer of securities. (3) Acquisition of shares of MYSE by Beihai Ruiyue, a party acting in concert with the controlling shareholder, through a non-trading transfer of securities. (4) Share conversion under exchangeable corporate bonds non-publicly issued by the controlling shareholder, Energy Investment Group. The above matters have resulted in a decrease in the number and percentage of shares of MYSE held in aggregate by the Company's Actual Controllers and their parties acting in concert, and do not trigger a tender offer.

This Change in Equity leads to corresponding changes in the equity of the Company's Actual Controllers and their parties acting in concert, but will not cause any change to the Company's controlling shareholder and Actual Controllers, nor will it have a material impact on the Company's governance structure and continuous operation.
3.
