 risk of not issuing and could provoke third parties to assert
claims against us. We may not prevail in any lawsuits that we initiate, and the damages or other remedies awarded, if any, may not be
commercially meaningful. Accordingly, our efforts to monitor and enforce our intellectual property rights around the world may be inadequate
to obtain a significant commercial advantage from the intellectual property that we develop or license.

Because
of the expense of litigation, we may be unable to enforce our intellectual property rights, unless we obtain the agreement of a third
party to provide funding in support of our litigation. We cannot assure that we will be able to obtain third party funding, and the failure
to obtain such funding may impair our ability to monetize our intellectual property portfolio. Since we do not have funds to pursue litigation
to enforce our intellectual property rights, we are dependent upon the valuation which potential funding sources give to our intellectual
property. In determining whether to provide funding for intellectual property litigation, the funding sources need to make an evaluation
of the strength of our patents, the likelihood of success, the nature of the potential defendants and a determination as to whether there
is a sufficient potential recovery to justify a significant investment in intellectual property litigation. Typically, such funding sources
receive a percentage of the recovery after litigation expenses and seek to generate a sufficient return on investment to justify the
investment. Unless that funding source believes that it will generate a sufficient return on investment, it will not fund litigation.
We cannot assure that we will be able to negotiate funding agreements with third party funding sources on terms reasonably acceptable
to us, if at all. Because of our financial condition, we may only be able to obtain funding on terms which are less favorable to us than
we would otherwise be able to obtain. Furthermore, even if we enter into funding agreements, there is no assurance that we will generate
revenue from the funded litigation. Although the funding source makes its evaluation as to the likelihood of success, patent litigation
is very uncertain, and we cannot assure that, just because we obtain litigation funding, we will be successful or that any recovery we
may obtain will be significant. In addition, defending our intellectual property rights may depend upon our ability to retain a qualified
legal counsel to prosecute patent infringement litigation. It may be difficult to find the preferred choice for legal counsel to handle
our cases because many of these firms may have a conflict of interest that prevents their representation of us or because they are not
willing to represent us on a contingent or partial
