 will be overturned at the appeals court and/or that an adverse
decision will be issued by the appeals court relating to the validity or enforceability of our patents. An adverse result in any litigation
or defense proceedings could put one or more of our patents at risk of being invalidated or interpreted narrowly and could put our patent
applications at risk of not issuing. The initiation of a claim against a third party may also cause the third party to bring counter claims
against us such as claims asserting that our patents are invalid or unenforceable. In patent litigation in the United States, defendant
counterclaims alleging invalidity or unenforceability are commonplace. Grounds for a validity challenge could be an alleged failure to
meet any of several statutory requirements, including lack of novelty, obviousness, non-enablement or lack of written description
or statutory subject matter. Grounds for an unenforceability assertion could be an allegation that someone connected with prosecution
of the patent withheld relevant material information from the USPTO, or made a materially misleading statement, during prosecution. Third
parties may also raise similar validity claims before the USPTO in post-grant proceedings such as ex parte reexaminations, inter
partes review, or post-grant review, or oppositions or similar proceedings outside the United States, in parallel with
litigation or even outside the context of litigation. The outcome following legal assertions of invalidity and unenforceability is unpredictable.
We cannot be certain that there is no invalidating prior art, of which it and the patent examiner were unaware during prosecution. For
the patents and patent applications that we have licensed, we may have limited or no right to participate in the defense of any licensed
patents against challenge by a third party. If a defendant were to prevail on a legal assertion of invalidity or unenforceability, we
would lose at least part, and perhaps all, of any future patent protection on our current or future product candidates. Such a loss of
patent protection could harm our business. Additionally, any adverse outcome could allow third parties to commercialize our products and
compete directly with us, without payment to us, or result in our inability to manufacture or commercialize products without infringing
third-party patent rights.

Even if we establish infringement, the court may decide not to grant
an injunction against further infringing activity and instead award only monetary damages, which may or may not be an adequate
