Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing

On May 24, 2016, SkyPeople Fruit Juice, Inc. (the "Company") received a notification letter from the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications (“NASDAQ”) stating the Company was not in compliance with NASDAQ Listing Rule 5250(c)(1), due to its failure to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 (the “Form 10-Q”).

Previously, in a notification letter dated May 23, 2016, NASDAQ had granted the Company an exception until July 15, 2016 to file its delinquent Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2015 (the “Initial Delinquent Filing”) based upon the initial plan of compliance (the "Initial Plan of Compliance") submitted by the Company to NASDAQ on May 19, 2016. As a result of this additional delinquency of Form 10-Q, the Company is provided 30 days from the date of the notification or until June 23, 2016 to submit an update of the Initial Plan of Compliance to regain compliance with respect to the filing requirement.

If the updated plan is accepted, NASDAQ can grant an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the due date of the Initial Delinquent Filing, or until October 11, 2016, for the Company to regain compliance. The NASDAQ notification letter has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock on the NASDAQ Global Market.
