 found to infringe a third party’s intellectual property rights, the combined company could be required to obtain a license from such third party to continue developing and marketing its technology. However, the combined company may not be able to obtain any required license on commercially reasonable terms or at all. Any inability to secure licenses or alternative technology could result in delays in the introduction of its products or lead to prohibition of the manufacture or sale of products by it. Even if the combined company was able to obtain a license, the combined company could be non -exclusive, thereby giving its competitors access to the same technologies licensed to it. The combined company could be forced, including by court order, to cease commercializing the infringing technology. In addition, the combined company could be found liable for monetary damages, including treble damages and attorneys’ fees if the combined company is found to have willfully infringed a patent. A finding of infringement could prevent the combined company from commercializing its technology or force the combined company to cease some of its business operations, which could materially harm the combined company’s business. Claims that the combined company has misappropriated the confidential information or trade secrets of third parties could have a similar negative impact on its business. The combined company may be subject to claims challenging the inventorship of its patents and other intellectual property. The combined company may be subject to claims that former employees, collaborators or other third parties have an interest in its patents or other intellectual property as an inventor or co -inventor. For example, the combined company may have inventorship disputes arise from conflicting obligations of consultants or others who are involved in developing its product candidates. Litigation may be necessary to defend against these and other claims challenging inventorship. If the combined company fails in defending any such claims, in addition to paying monetary damages, it may lose valuable intellectual property rights, such as exclusive ownership of, or right to use, valuable intellectual property. Such an outcome could have a material adverse effect on its business. Even if it is successful in defending against such claims, litigation could result in substantial costs and be a distraction to management and other employees. In addition, the combined company may receive less revenue from future products if any of its employees successfully claim for compensation for their work in developing the combined company’s intellectual property, which in turn could impact the combined company’s future profitability. Under applicable employment laws, the combined company may not be able to enforce covenants not to compete and therefore may be unable to prevent its competitors from benefiting from the expertise of some of its former
