NOTICE OF THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

TO BE HELD ON WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 2022

Notice is hereby given that the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (the "2022 Annual Meeting") of Sohu.com Limited (the "Company") will be held at Level 2, Sohu.com Media Plaza, Block 3, No. 2 Kexueyuan South Road, Haidian District, Beijing, People's Republic of China, on Wednesday, September 14, 2022 at 10:00 A.M. China time, to consider and act upon the following matters:

1.

To elect the following nominees to the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") as Class I Directors, each to hold office until the second succeeding annual general meeting of shareholders and until his successor is duly elected or appointed, or until his resignation or removal:

Charles Zhang

Zhonghan Deng

Dave De Yang

2.

To ratify the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers Zhong Tian LLP as the Company's independent auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022.

3.

To consider and act upon all other matters which may properly come before the 2022 Annual Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof.

The Board consists of six directors, and is divided into Class I Directors and Class II Directors, with three directors in each class. Class I Directors are to serve until the 2022 Annual Meeting and for each successive term expiring at the second succeeding annual general meeting thereafter and Class II Directors are to serve until the 2023 annual general meeting of shareholders and for each successive term expiring at the second succeeding annual general meeting thereafter.

The Board has nominated Charles Zhang, Zhonghan Deng and Dave De Yang, who are currently designated as Class I Directors and whose terms will expire at the 2022 Annual Meeting, to stand for election as Class I Directors. The Board knows of no reason why any of the nominees would be unable or unwilling to serve, but if that should be the case, proxies will be voted for the election of substitute nominee(s) selected by the Board, or the Board will fix the number of directors at a lesser number. The proxies may not be voted for a greater number of persons than the number of nominees named in item 1 above. The three nominees receiving a plurality of the votes cast by the shareholders represented at the 2022 Annual Meeting in person or by proxy will be elected as Class I Directors.

The Board recommends that shareholders vote "FOR" election to the Board as Class I Directors of each of the nominees listed in item 1 above and "FOR" item 2 above at the 2022 Annual Meeting. Your vote is very important to the Company.

The Board has set the close of business U.S. Eastern time on Wednesday, August 10, 2022 as the record date (the "Record Date") for the purpose of determining the shareholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the 2022 Annual Meeting or any adjournment(s) thereof.

The Company's annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 (the "Annual Report") filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2022 is available for your viewing and downloading at the Company's website at:
