Events.
On
May 11, 2009, MercadoLibre, Inc. (the "Company") disclosed in its quarterly
report on Form 10-Q that the Company received notice that the Consumer
Protection Agency in Venezuela (“Instituto para la Defensa de las Personas
en el Acceso a los Bienes y Servicios” or “INDEPABIS”) had temporarily
suspended new car listings on the Company's tucarro.com.ve website due to an
investigation by INDEPABIS over car dealers’ listings on the
website.
On
May 26, 2009, the Company received notice that the suspension had been lifted.
The Company immediately restored full functionality to the website and
tucarro.com.ve is once again allowing users to add new car listing on to the
site.
There
is no further administrative proceeding pending against the Company with respect
to this matter at this time, however we cannot assure that proceedings will not
be initiated in the future.
