| 4.1 | Shares in the Company shall be transferred by a written instrument of transfer signed by the transferor and containing the name and address of the transferee.

The instrument of transfer of a registered share shall be sent to the Company for registration. |
| 4.2 | Subject to the Memorandum, these Articles and to section 54(5) of the Act, the Company shall, on receipt of an instrument of transfer, enter the name of the transferee of the share in the Company's register of members unless the directors resolve to refuse or delay the registration of the transfer for reasons that shall be specified in the resolution. Where the directors pass such a resolution, the Company shall send to the transferor and the transferee a notice of the refusal or delay.

5.2.2 the name of the mortgagee or chargee (where such information has been stated by the member); and

5.2.3 the date on which the statement and name are entered in the Company's register of members.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **6** | **TRANSMISSION OF SHARES** |
| 6.1 | Subject to sections 52(2) and 53 of the Act, the executor or administrator of a deceased member, the guardian of an incompetent member or the trustee of a bankrupt member shall be the only person recognised by the Company as having any title to such member's share(s), save that and only in the event of death, incompetence or bankruptcy of any member or members as a consequence of which the Company no longer has any directors or members, then upon the production of any documentation which is reasonable evidence of the applicant being entitled to: |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.1.1 a grant of probate of the deceased's will, or grant of letters of administration of the deceased's estate, or confirmation of the appointment as executor or administrator (as the case may be, or analogous position in the relevant jurisdiction), of a deceased member's estate;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.1.2 the appointment of a guardian (or analogous position in the relevant jurisdiction) of an incompetent member;

6.1.3 the appointment as trustee (or analogous position in the relevant jurisdiction) of a bankrupt member; or

6.1.4 upon production of any other reasonable evidence of the applicant's beneficial ownership of, or entitlement to the shares, to the Company's registered agent in the British Virgin Islands together with (if so requested by the registered agent) a notarised copy of the share certificate(s) of the deceased, incompetent or bankrupt member, an indemnity in favour of the registered agent and/or appropriate legal advice in respect of any document issued by a foreign court, then the administrator, executor, guardian or trustee in bankruptcy (as the case may be) notwithstanding that their name has not been entered in the Company's register of members, may by written resolution of the applicant, endorsed with written approval by the registered agent, be appointed a director and/or entered in the Company's register of members as the legal and/or beneficial owner of the shares.

6.2 Without limiting the foregoing, the production to the Company of any document which is reasonable evidence
of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.2.1 a grant of probate of the will, or grant of letters of administration of the estate, or confirmation of the appointment as executor (or analogous position in the relevant jurisdiction), of a deceased member;

6.2.2 the appointment of a guardian (or analogous position in the relevant jurisdiction) of an incompetent member;

6.2.3 the trustee (or analogous position in the relevant jurisdiction) of a bankrupt member; or

6.2.4 the applicant's legal and/or beneficial ownership of the shares, shall be accepted by the Company even if the deceased, incompetent member or bankrupt member is resident and/or domiciled outside the British Virgin Islands if the document is issued by a foreign court which had competent jurisdiction in the matter. For the purposes of establishing whether or not a foreign court had competent jurisdiction in such a matter the directors may obtain appropriate legal advice. The directors may also require an indemnity to be given by the executor, administrator, guardian, trustee in bankruptcy or the applicant.

6.3 Any person becoming entitled by operation of law or otherwise to a share or shares in consequence of the
death, incompetence or bankruptcy of any member may be registered as a member upon such evidence being produced as may reasonably be
required by the directors. An application by any such person to be registered as a member shall for all purposes be deemed to be a transfer
of shares of the deceased, incompetent or bankrupt member and the directors shall treat it as such (but without requiring an instrument
of transfer).

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| 6.4 | Any person who has become entitled to a share or shares in consequence of the death, incompetence or bankruptcy of any member may, instead of being registered himself, request in writing that some person to be named by him be registered as the transferee of such share or shares and such request shall likewise be treated as if it were a transfer. |
| 6.5 | What amounts to incompetence on the part of a person is a matter to be determined by the court having regard to all the relevant evidence and the circumstances of the case. |
| **7** | **ACQUISITION OF OWN SHARES AND CONVERSION** |

7.3 Sections 60 and 61 of the Act shall not apply to the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.4.1 The number of Class B shares held by a holder thereof will be automatically and immediately converted into a corresponding number of Class A shares in the ratio set forth in Article 7.4 hereof upon any direct or indirect sale, transfer, assignment or disposition of such number of Class B shares by the holder thereof or an Affiliate of such holder or the direct or indirect transfer, assignment or disposition of the voting power attached to such number of Class B Shares through voting proxy or otherwise to any person or entity that is not an Affiliate of such holder. For the avoidance of doubt, the creation of any pledge, charge, encumbrance or other third party right of whatever description on any of Class B shares to secure contractual or legal obligations shall not be deemed as a sale, transfer, assignment or disposition unless and until any such pledge, charge, encumbrance or other third- party right is enforced and results in the third party holding directly or indirectly beneficial ownership or voting power through voting proxy or otherwise to the related Class B shares, in which case all the related Class B shares shall be automatically converted into the same number of Class A shares.

7.4.2 All Class B shares will be automatically converted into a corresponding number of Class A shares in the ratio set forth in Article 7.4 hereof as soon as the Class B member beneficially owns less than 453,450 Class B shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.4.3 Class
 A shares are not convertible into Class B shares under any circumstances.

7.4.4 Upon
 any conversion of Class B shares to Class A shares pursuant to this Article 7.4, the company shall update its register of members
 to evidence such conversion.

7.4.5 Save
 and except for voting rights and conversion rights as set out in Article 7.4, the Class A shares and the Class B shares shall rank *paripassu* and shall have the same rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions.

**Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings**

To the best of our knowledge, none of our directors or officers has been convicted in a criminal proceeding, excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanours, nor has any been a party to any judicial or administrative proceeding during the past five 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 laws, except for matters that were dismissed without sanction or settlement. Except as set forth in our discussion in "Related Party Transactions," our directors and officers have not been involved in any transactions with us or any of our affiliates or associates which are required to be disclosed pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

**Board Leadership Structure**

Mr. Silong Chen currently holds both the positions of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board. These two positions have not been consolidated into one position; Mr. Chen simply holds both positions at this time. As a smaller public company, we believe it is in the company's best interest to allow the company to benefit from guidance from key members of management in a variety of capacities. We do not have a lead independent director and do not anticipate having a lead independent director because we will encourage our independent directors to freely voice their opinions on a relatively small company board. We believe this leadership structure is appropriate because we are a relatively small public company.

**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.

**What if a nominee is unwilling or unable to serve?**

Each nominee listed in the Proxy Statement has agreed to serve as a director, if reelected. If for some unforeseen reason a nominee becomes unwilling or unable to serve, proxies will be voted for a substitute nominee selected by the Board of Directors.

**How are directors compensated?**

All directors hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders at which they are re-elected or until their successors have been duly elected and qualified. Officers are elected by and serve at the discretion of the Board of Directors. Employee directors do not receive any compensation for their services. Non-employee directors are entitled to receive such remuneration as our board of directors may determine or change from time to time for serving as directors and may receive incentive option grants from our company. In addition, each non-employee director is entitled to be repaid or prepaid all traveling, hotel and incidental expenses reasonably incurred or expected to be incurred in attending meetings of our board of directors or committees of our board of directors or shareholder meetings or otherwise in connection with the discharge of his or her duties as a director.

**How does the Board 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).

**What role does the Nominating Committee play in selecting nominees to the Board of Directors?**

Two of the primary purposes of the Board's Nominating Committee 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.dogness.com* 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.

**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 shareholders?**

The Nominating Committee will consider all candidates recommended by shareholders. A shareholder wishing to recommend a candidate must submit the following documents to the Secretary of the Company at No. 16 N. Dongke Road, Tongsha Industrial Zone, Dongguan, Guangdong, 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 shareholders 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.

**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 shareholders communicate with the members of the Board of Directors?**

Shareholders 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:

**NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS**

Our employment agreements with our executive officers generally provide for a salary to be paid monthly. The agreements also provide that executive officers are to work full time for our company and are entitled to all legal holidays as well as other paid leave in accordance with PRC laws and regulations and our internal work policies. The employment agreements also provide that we will pay for all mandatory social insurance programs for our executive officers in accordance with PRC regulations. In addition, our employment agreements with our executive officers prevent them from rendering services for our competitors for so long as they are employed.

Other than the salary, bonuses, equity grants and necessary social benefits required by the government, which are defined in the employment agreements, we currently do not provide other benefits to the officers. Our executive officers are not entitled to severance payments upon the termination of their employment agreement or following a change in control. We are not aware of any arrangement that may at a subsequent date, result in a change of control of our company. We have not provided retirement benefits (other than a state pension scheme in which all of our employees in China participate) or severance or change of control benefits to our named executive officers.

Under Chinese law, we may terminate an employment agreement without penalty by providing the employee thirty days' prior written notice or one month's wages in lieu of notice if the employee is incompetent or remains incompetent after training or adjustment of the employee's position in other limited cases. If we wish to terminate an employment agreement in the absence of cause, then we are obligated to pay the employee one month's salary for each year we have employed the employee. We are, however, permitted to terminate an employee for cause without penalty to our company, where the employee has committed a crime or the employee's actions or inactions have resulted in a material adverse effect to us.
