 no patents or copyrights in any jurisdiction.
The cost of developing, applying for and obtaining such enforceable rights is expensive. Even after such enforceable rights are obtained,
there are significant costs for maintaining and enforcing them. The Company may lack the resources to put in place exclusive protection
and enforcement efforts. Also, certain of the Company’s product or service offerings initially draws from publicly available technology
in the marketplace. The Company’s failure to obtain or maintain adequate protection of its intellectual property rights for any
reason could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations.

If the Company were to develop intellectual property,
the Company may seek to enforce its intellectual property rights on others through litigation. The Company’s claims, even if meritorious,
may be found invalid or inapplicable to a party the Company believes infringes or has misappropriated its intellectual property rights.
In addition, litigation can:

  be expensive and time consuming to prosecute or defend;  

  result in a finding that the Company does not have certain intellectual property rights or that such rights lack sufficient scope or strength;  

  divert management’s attention and resources; or require the Company to license its intellectual property.  

The Company may rely on trademarks or service
marks to establish a market identity for its products or services. To maintain the value of the Company’s trademarks or service
marks, the Company might have to file lawsuits against third parties to prevent them from using marks confusingly similar to or dilutive
of the Company’s registered or unregistered trademarks or service marks. The Company also might not obtain registrations for its
pending or future trademark or service marks applications, and might have to defend its registered trademark or service marks and pending
applications, if any, from challenge by third parties. Enforcing or defending the Company’s registered and unregistered trademarks
or service marks might result in significant litigation costs and damages, including the inability to continue using certain marks.

The laws of foreign countries in which the Company
may contemplate doing business in the future may not recognize intellectual property rights or protect them to the same extent as do the
laws of Malaysia. Adverse determinations in a judicial or administrative proceeding could prevent the Company from offering or providing
its products or services or prevent the Company from stopping others from offering or providing competing products, and thereby have a
material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Our products, services or processes could
be subject to claims of infringement of the intellectual property of others.
