Compliance with Laws and Governmental Orders

Section 3.16

The Group Companies conduct their business, which is defined as Internet and Value-added telecommunication operations, through the Company’s indirectly wholly owned PRC Subsidiary and controlled VIE Sogou Information. Both the VIE structure and the provision of services through Sogou WFOE is vaguely defined under PRC law, and therefore it is possible that the relevant PRC authorities could, at any time, assert that any portion or all of the Sogou WFOE and Sogou Information’s existing ownership structure and businesses violate existing or future PRC laws, regulations or policies.

2.	PRC Subsidiary and Sogou Information have from time to time received complaints from government authorities, alleging the following violations of laws or regulations during their operation:

(i)

violations resulting from information accessed through the use of Sogou’s search services that infringed upon the rights of a third party, none of which (individually or in the aggregate) would materially impact the business or operations of any Group Company if deemed to in fact be violations of such third party rights; and
