Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

To the best of our knowledge, none of our directors or executive officers has been convicted in a criminal proceeding, excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors, or has been a party to any judicial or administrative proceeding during the past ten years that resulted in a judgment, decree or final order enjoining the person from future violations of, or prohibiting activities subject to, federal or state securities laws, or a finding of any violation of federal or state securities or commodities laws, any laws respecting financial institutions or insurance companies, any law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud in connection with any business entity or been subject to any disciplinary sanctions or orders imposed by a stock, commodities or derivatives exchange or other self-regulatory organization, except for matters that were dismissed without sanction or settlement. None of our directors, director nominees or executive officers has been involved in any transactions with us or any of our directors, executive officers, affiliates or associates which are required to be disclosed pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Family Relationships

There are no family relationships among any of our directors or executive officers.

Leadership Structure of the Board of Directors

Mr. Yin Shenping currently holds both the positions of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the board of directors. The board of directors believes that Mr. Yin’s service as both Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the board of directors is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. Mr. Yin possesses detailed and in-depth knowledge of the issues, opportunities and challenges facing the Company and its business and is thus best positioned to develop agendas that ensure that the board’s time and attention are focused on the most critical matters. His combined role enables decisive leadership, ensures clear accountability, and enhances the Company’s ability to communicate its message and strategy clearly and consistently to the Company’s stockholders, employees, customers and suppliers.

We do not have a lead independent director because of the foregoing reasons and also because we believe our independent directors are encouraged to freely voice their opinions on our relatively small company board. We believe this leadership structure is appropriate because we are a smaller reporting company that recently became listed on a public exchange; as such, we deem it appropriate to be able to benefit from the guidance of Mr. Yin as both our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the board of directors.

Risk Oversight

Our board of directors plays a significant role in our risk oversight. The board of directors makes all relevant Company decisions. As such, it is important for us to have our Chief Executive Officer serve on the board as he plays a key role in the risk oversight of the Company. As a smaller reporting company with a small board of directors, we believe it is appropriate to have the involvement and input of all of our directors in risk oversight matters.

There are no material proceedings to which any director, officer or affiliate of the Company, any owner of record or beneficial owner of more than 5% of the Company’s shares of common stock, or any associate of such persons is a party adverse to Company or has a material interest adverse to the Company.

How does the Board of Directors determine which directors are independent?

The board of directors reviews the independence of each director yearly. During this review, the board of directors considers transactions and relationships between each director (and his or her immediate family and affiliates) and the Company and its management to determine whether any such relationships or transactions are inconsistent with a determination that the director is independent in light of applicable law, listing standards and the Company’s director independence standards. The Company believes that it maintains a majority of independent directors who are deemed to be independent under the definition of independence provided by NASDAQ Listing Rule 5605(a)(2).

8

What role does the Nominating Committee play in selecting nominees to the board of directors?

Two of the primary purposes of the Nominating Committee of the board of directors are (i) to develop and implement policies and procedures that are intended to ensure that the board of directors will be appropriately constituted and organized to meet its fiduciary obligations to the Company and its shareholders and (ii) to identify individuals qualified to become members of the board of directors and to recommend to the board of directors the director nominees for the annual meeting of shareholders. The Nominating Committee is also responsible for considering candidates for membership on the board of directors submitted by eligible shareholders. The Nominating Committee’s charter is available on the Company’s website at www.recon.cn under Investor Relations and in print upon request. The Nominating Committee of the Company’s board of directors was the only entity or person to nominate and/or recommend any of the director nominees.

Are the members of the Nominating Committee independent?

Yes. All members of the Nominating Committee have been determined to be independent by the board of directors.

9

How does the Nominating Committee identify and evaluate nominees for director?

The Nominating Committee considers candidates for nomination to the board of directors from a number of sources. Current members of the board of directors are considered for re-election unless they have notified the Company that they do not wish to stand for re-election. The Nominating Committee also considers candidates recommended by current members of the board of directors, members of management or eligible shareholders. From time to time the Board may engage a firm to assist in identifying potential candidates, although the Company did not engage such a firm to identify any of the nominees for director proposed for election at the meeting.

The Nominating Committee evaluates all candidates for director, regardless of the person or firm recommending such candidate, on the basis of the length and quality of their business experience, the applicability of such candidate’s experience to the Company and its business, the skills and perspectives such candidate would bring to the board of directors and the personality or “fit” of such candidate with existing members of the board of directors and management. The nominating committee does not have a specific policy in place with regard to the consideration of diversity when identifying director nominees, however, the nominating committee does consider diversity of opinion and experience when nominating directors.

What are the Nominating Committee’s policies and procedures for considering director candidates recommended by stockholders?

The Nominating Committee will consider all candidates recommended by stockholders. A shareholder wishing to recommend a candidate must submit the following documents to the Secretary of the Company at Recon Technology, Ltd, Room 1902, Building C, King Long International Mansion, 9 Fulin Road, Beijing 100107 China:

· a recommendation that identifies the name and address of the shareholder and the person to be nominated;

· the written consent of the candidate to serve as a director of the Company, if elected;

· a description of all arrangements between the stockholders and such nominee pursuant to which the nomination is to be made; and

· such other information regarding the nominee as would be required to be included in a proxy statement filed pursuant to the proxy rules of the SEC.

If the candidate is to be evaluated by the Nominating Committee, the Secretary will request a detailed resume, an autobiographical statement explaining the candidate’s interest in serving as a director of the Company, a completed statement regarding conflicts of interest, and a waiver of liability for a background check from the candidate.

What are the minimum qualifications required to serve on the Company’s board of directors?

All members of the board of directors must possess the following minimum qualifications as determined by the Nominating Committee:

· A director must demonstrate integrity, accountability, informed judgment, financial literacy, creativity and vision;

· A director must be prepared to represent the best interests of all Company shareholders, and not just one particular constituency;

· A director must have a record of professional accomplishment in his or her chosen field; and

· A director must be prepared and able to participate fully in board activities, including membership on committees.

10

What other considerations does the Nominating Committee consider?

The Nominating Committee believes it is important to have directors from various backgrounds and professions in order to ensure that the board of directors has a wealth of experiences to inform its decisions. Consistent with this philosophy, in addition to the minimum standards set forth above, business and managerial experience and an understanding of financial statements and financial matters are very important.

How may stockholders communicate with the members of the board of directors?

Stockholders and others who are interested in communicating directly with members of the board of directors, including communication of concerns relating to accounting, internal accounting controls or audit matters, or fraud or unethical behavior, may do so by writing to the directors at the following address:

Name of Director or Directors

Beijing 100107 China

Does the Company have a Code of Business Ethics and Conduct?

The complete text of the Code of Business Ethics and Conduct is available on the Company’s web site at www.recon.cn and is also available in print upon request.

GENERAL

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

None of the members of the board of directors who served on the Compensation Committee during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 were officers or employees of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or had any relationship with the Company requiring disclosure under SEC regulations.

Compliance with Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Requirements

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Company’s directors and executive officers and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of the Company’s equity securities to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission reports of ownership and changes in beneficial ownership of the Company’s ordinary shares. Directors, executive officers and greater than ten percent shareholders are required to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. Based solely on a review of the copies of these reports furnished to the Company or written representations that no other reports were required, we believe that all reports were timely made.
