 will be contested, circumvented, invalidated or limited in scope in the future. In addition to those who may claim priority, any of our existing or pending patents may also be challenged by others on the basis that they are otherwise invalid or unenforceable. The rights granted under any issued patents may not provide us with meaningful protection or competitive advantages, and some foreign countries provide significantly less effective patent enforcement than what the United States provides. In addition, the claims under any patents that are issued to us may not be broad enough to prevent others from developing technologies that are similar or that achieve results similar to ours. The intellectual property rights of others could also bar or limit us from licensing, exploiting or enforcing any patents issued to us. In addition, patents issued to us may be infringed upon or designed around by others and others may obtain patents that it needs to license or design around, either of which would increase costs and may adversely affect our business, financial condition, prospects and results of operations. Our failure or the inadequacy of our efforts to protect our intellectual property rights may undermine our competitive position, and litigation associated with our intellectual property rights may be costly. We seek to protect proprietary technologies primarily through patents and trade secrets. Patent protection may not be available or appropriate for some of the products or technology we are developing. While we own several patents and pending patent applications in the United States and in foreign jurisdictions, these applications do not ensure the protection of our intellectual property for a number of reasons, including that there may be prior art of which we are not aware or there may be other patents existing in the patent landscape that affect our freedom to operate. Our business and financial prospects may be harmed to the extent we are required to spend significant resources prosecuting, protecting or enforcing our patents, designing around patents held by others or licensing patents or other proprietary rights from third parties. Additionally, pending applications may not be issued or may be issued with claims significantly narrower than we currently seek. Similarly, patents for which claims have been allowed may be successfully challenged and invalidated. Unless and until our pending applications issue, their protective scope is impossible to determine and, even after issuance, their protective scope may be limited. Also, litigation may be necessary to enforce our intellectual property rights or determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. Such litigation may result in our intellectual property rights being challenged, limited in scope or declared invalid or unenforceable. We cannot be certain that the outcome of any litigation will be in our favor, and an adverse determination in any such litigation
