As previously disclosed, following recent changes to shareholders for Nanjing Recon Technology Co., Ltd. (“Nanjing Recon”) and Beijing BHD Petroleum Technology Co., Ltd.

The VIEs contractual agreements were dated and signed on July 10, 2025, and submitted for registration and review. As of this Report, all registrations have been completed, and the Registrant does not expect any negative impact of this process on its operation.

With respect to Nanjing Recon, in November 2020, Shenping Yin acquired all equity previously held by Guangqiang Chen; in January 2022, Mr. Yin made a capital contribution; and in March 2023, Yingwu Yan acquired all equity previously held by Degui Zhai.
With respect to BHD, in June 2019, Zhang Fan exited by transferring all of his equity to Guangqiang Chen; in September 2020 Mr. Yin exited by transferring all of his equity to Mr. Chen; and in 2024 and 2025 Mr. Yin subsequently re-entered and made additional capital contributions that diluted other holders. As of the date of this Report, Nanjing Recon is held by Shenping Yin (99.75%) and Yingwu Yan (0.25%), and BHD is held by Guangqiang Chen (85.93%), Shenping Yin (10.00%), Donglin Li (3.77%) and Zhiqiang Feng (0.30%). These updates do not affect the Registrant’s contractual control over the VIEs.
