 of
unauthorized use or disclosure or other breaches of the agreements, and we may not be able to prevent such unauthorized disclosure, which
could materially and adversely impact our ability to establish or maintain a competitive advantage in the market, and our business, financial
condition, results of operations and prospects.

Monitoring unauthorized disclosure
is difficult, and we do not know whether the steps we have taken to prevent such disclosure are, or will be, adequate. If we were to enforce
a claim that a third party had wrongfully obtained and was using our trade secrets, it would be expensive and time-consuming, it could
distract our personnel, and the outcome would be unpredictable. In addition, courts outside the United States may be less willing
to protect trade secrets or may not recognize certain claims of intellectual property infringement.

We also seek to preserve the
integrity and confidentiality of our confidential proprietary information by maintaining physical security of our premises and physical
and electronic security of our information technology systems, but it is possible that these security measures could be breached. If any
of our confidential proprietary information were to be lawfully obtained or independently developed by a competitor or other third party,
absent patent and copyright protection, we would have no right to prevent such competitor from using that technology or information to
compete with us, which could harm our competitive position. Competitors or third parties could purchase our products and attempt to replicate
some or all of the competitive advantages we derive from our development efforts, design around our protected technology, develop their
own competitive technologies that fall outside the scope of our intellectual property rights or independently develop our technologies
without reference to our trade secrets. If any of our trade secrets were to be disclosed to or independently discovered by a competitor
or other third party, it could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Obtaining and maintaining our patent protection depends on compliance with various procedural, document submission, fee payment and other requirements imposed by governmental patent agencies, and our patent protection could be reduced or eliminated for non-compliance with these requirements.

The USPTO and various foreign
governmental patent agencies require compliance with a number of procedural, documentary, fee payment and other provisions during the
patent process. There are situations in which noncompliance can result in abandonment or lapse of a patent or patent application, resulting
in partial or complete loss of patent rights in the relevant jurisdiction. In such an event, competitors might be able to enter the market
earlier than would otherwise
