 claims before administrative
bodies in the U.S. or abroad, even outside the context of litigation. Such mechanisms include re-examination, interference proceedings,
derivation proceedings, post grant review, inter partesreview and equivalent proceedings such as opposition, invalidation and
revocation proceedings in foreign jurisdictions. Such proceedings could result in the revocation or cancellation of or amendment to Veea’s
patents in such a way that they no longer cover one or more of Veea’s products or Veea’s technology or no longer prevent third
parties from competing with any products Veea may develop or Veea’s technology. The outcome following legal assertions of invalidity
and unenforceability is unpredictable. Defense of these claims, regardless of their merit, would involve substantial litigation expense
and would be a distraction to management and other employees. With respect to the validity question, for example, Veea cannot be certain
that there is no invalidating prior art, of which the patent examiner and Veea or Veea’s licensing partners were unaware during
prosecution. If a third party were to prevail on a legal assertion of invalidity or unenforceability, Veea could lose at least part, and
perhaps all, of the patent protection on one or more of Veea’s products or technology. Such a loss of patent protection could have
a material adverse effect on Veea’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

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

Periodic maintenance fees, renewal fees, annuity
fees, and various other government fees on patents and applications will be due to be paid to the USPTO and various government patent
agencies outside of the U.S. over the lifetime of Veea’s owned or licensed patents and applications. The USPTO and various non-U.S.
government agencies require compliance with several procedural, documentary, fee payment and other similar provisions during the patent
application process. In some cases, an inadvertent lapse can be cured by payment of a late fee or by other means in accordance with the
applicable rules. There are situations, however, in which non-compliance can result in abandonment or lapse of the patent or patent application,
resulting in a partial or complete loss of patent rights
