| A foreign investor may become a shareholder of a company by taking the industrial intellectual property rights, proprietary technology, and/or new and\or high technical fruit held by himself/herself as immaterial assets and putting them into the company. The priced amount of money shall not exceed 20% of the registered capital of the foreign-invested enterprise; the value of the new and/or high technical fruits confirmed as immaterial assets may take up to 35% of the registered capital. The value of an immaterial asset may be confirmed by a qualified assessment institution, or recognized in written form through negotiation between investment parties and with the both parties’ consent of assuming corresponding joint liabilities. |
