, and there may not be adequate
remedies available to us for any such breach. Accordingly, we may not be able to effectively protect our intellectual property rights
or to enforce our contractual rights in China or elsewhere. In addition, policing any unauthorized use of our intellectual property is
difficult, time-consuming and costly and the steps we have taken may be inadequate to prevent the misappropriation of our intellectual
property. In the event that we resort to litigation to enforce our intellectual property rights, such litigation could result in substantial
costs and a diversion of our managerial and financial resources. We can provide no assurance that we will prevail in such litigation.
In addition, our trade secrets may be leaked or otherwise become available to, or be independently discovered by, our competitors. Any
failure in protecting or enforcing our intellectual property rights could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition
and results of operations. Under the Foreign Investment Law of the PRC, or the PRC Foreign Investment Law, promulgated by the National
People’s Congress on March 15, 2019, which became effective on January 1, 2020, the PRC government encourages technology
cooperation on the basis of free will and business rules in the process of foreign investment; no administrative agency or its employee
may force the transfer of any technology by administrative means. However, because the PRC Foreign Investment Law is relatively new, there
remain high uncertainties with regard to how the law will be interpreted and enforced.

Able View is also subject to a variety of laws
and other obligations regarding intellectual property rights in Hong Kong, including but are not limited to the Trade Marks Ordinance
(Chapter 559 of the Laws of Hong Kong), which provides for the registration of trademarks, the use of registered trademarks and related
matters. Intellectual property rights and confidentiality protections in Hong Kong may not be as effective as in the United States or
other countries. These uncertainties could limit the legal protections available to us, including our ability to enforce our agreements
with our clients.

We may be accused of infringing intellectual
property rights of third parties and violating content restrictions of relevant laws.

Third parties may claim that the technology or
content used in our operation of online stores or our service offerings infringe upon their intellectual property rights. We have been
in the past subject to non-material legal proceedings and claims relating to infringement of the intellectual property rights of others.
The possibility of intellectual property claims against us increases as we continue to grow,
