Risk Factors We rely on third parties maintaining open marketplaces to distribute our application and provide the software we use in certain of our products and offerings. If such third parties interfere with the distribution of our products or offerings or with our use of such software, if we are unable to maintain a good relationship, or if marketplaces are unavailable for any prolonged period of time, our business will suffer. The operators of digital storefronts on which we publish our mobile application in many cases have the unilateral ability to change and interpret the terms of our contract with them. We may be parties to intellectual property rights claims and other litigation that are expensive to support, and if resolved adversely, could have a significant impact on us and our stockholders. If we are unable to protect our intellectual property, the value of our brand and other intangible assets may be diminished, and our business may be adversely affected. . Any significant disruption in our services or in our information technology systems could result in a loss of users or harm our business. Damage to, or failure of, our systems or interruptions or delays in service from our third-party cloud service platforms could impair the delivery of our service and harm our business. Our service relies on GPS and other Global Satellite Navigation Systems ("GNSS"). Computer malware, viruses, hacking, and phishing attacks, and spamming could harm our business and results of operations. Systems failures and resulting interruptions in the availability of our website, applications, platform, or offerings could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Risks Related to Laws and Regulations Action by governmental authorities to restrict access to our products and services in their localities could substantially harm our business and financial results. Our business is subject to regulation by multiple governmental authorities, and our inability to maintain existing governmental approvals or to obtain governmental approvals in the future could adversely impact our financial results or operations. Government regulation of the Internet and user privacy is evolving and negative changes could substantially harm our business and operating results. Internet and e-commerce regulation in Turkey is recent and is subject to further development. We collect, store, process and use personal information and other customer data, which subjects us to governmental regulation and other legal obligations related to privacy, information security, and data protection, and our actual or perceived failure to comply with such obligations could harm our business. . . . . Expansion of products or services could subject us to additional laws and regulations, and any actual or perceived failure by us to comply with such laws and regulations or manage the increased costs associated with such laws or regulations could adversely affect our business, financial condition, or results of operations. We are regularly subject to claims, lawsuits, government investigations, and other proceedings that may adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. We may face lawsuits from local governmental entities, municipalities, and private citizens related to the conduct of our business. We are subject to various existing and future environmental health and safety laws and regulations that could result in increased compliance costs or additional operating costs and restrictions. Failure to comply with such laws and regulations may result in substantial fines or other limitations that could adversely impact our financial results or operations. . We may be subject to tax audits that may result in additional tax liabilities. We may be exposed to changes in tax laws and regulations as well as their interpretation and implementation. Our operating plan requires us to source parts, materials and supplies internationally, and supply chain disruptions, foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and changes to international trade agreements, tariffs, import and excise duties, taxes or other governmental rules and regulations could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. We may be subject to administrative fines and our reputation may be harmed if the Turkish Competition Authority were to determine that we did not comply with Turkish competition laws and regulations. We are exposed to the risk of inadvertently violating anti-corruption, anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist financing and economic sanctions laws and regulations and other similar laws and regulations. Because we are incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands, and Marti's management and operations are based in Turkey, you may face difficulties in protecting your interests, and your ability to protect your rights through the U.S federal courts may be limited. Risks Related to Marti's Financial Results Our ability to utilize historic losses to offset income in future years may be limited, including as a result of significant changes in our shareholder base or as a result of acquisition activity. We are exposed to fluctuations in currency exchange rates. Unanticipated changes in our income tax rates or exposure to additional tax liabilities may affect our future financial results. We are subject to tax in multiple jurisdictions, and changes in tax laws (or in the interpretations thereof) in the United States, Turkey or in other jurisdictions could have an adverse effect on us. We establish tax provisions, where appropriate, on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to (and recovered from) tax authorities and, as a result, changes in tax laws (or in the interpretations thereof) could have an adverse effect on us. 54
