On October 12, 2009, we entered into a purchase agreement with Renhuang Stock to acquire the land use right, property and plant located at our Ah City Natural and Biopharmaceutical plant for a total consideration of $25,448,125. Pursuant to the purchase agreement, a payment of $15,905,078 was made to Renhuang Stock in October 2009 and a payment of $7,952,539 was made to Renhuang Stock in January 2011, with a final payment of $1,590,508 due by the date of receiving all the related government transfer documents, at which time title for the assets will be transferred. Accordingly the transaction is considered incomplete as of January 31, 2012. The Company records the deposits under the Deposits for properties item on condensed consolidated balance sheet.

 

Before the transaction is completed, the Company is deemed to lease property and plant from Renhuang Stock. Rental expenses related to this lease, incurred and expensed to condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, which were forgiven rental expenses and recognized to account for the rental exemption pursuant to the purchase agreement, and the deposits for the property were reduced accordingly. Under the lease terms, the Company no longer needs to pay rent to Renhuang Stock for the use of the property and plant.
