 for our operations.
Violations of environmental and other laws, regulations, and permit requirements, including certain violations of laws protecting wetlands,
migratory birds, and threatened or endangered species, may also result in criminal sanctions or injunctions. The global EHS regulatory
environment continues to change, and these laws and regulations, and the enforcement thereof, have tended to become more stringent over
time. It is possible that new standards could be imposed, or interpretation or enforcement of existing laws and regulations could change,
making the regulatory environment more stringent. Such changes could result in higher operating expenses, the obsolescence of our products
or an interruption or suspension of our operations and have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
If it is not economical to make those expenditures, or if we violate any applicable EHS laws and regulation, it may be necessary to retire
or suspend operations of our facilities or restrict or modify our operations to obtain or maintain compliance, either of which could have
a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and prospects.

Furthermore, foreign, federal, state, and local governments are increasingly
regulating and restricting the use of certain chemicals, substances, and materials. Some of these policy initiatives could impact our
business. For example, laws, regulations, or other policy initiatives might restrict substances found within component parts to our products,
in which event we would be required to comply with such requirements, which could in turn require changes to our products and increase
our production and operating costs.

Our business could be adversely affected by trade wars, trade
tariffs or other trade barriers.

The U.S. government has recently imposed tariffs on certain foreign
goods, including steel and aluminum and has indicated a willingness to impose tariffs on imports of other products. As an example, on
February 1, 2025, the U.S. government announced a 25% tariff on product imports from certain countries, including Mexico and Canada, and
10% tariffs on product imports from certain countries, including China. Some foreign governments, including China, have instituted retaliatory
tariffs on certain U.S. goods and have indicated a willingness to impose additional tariffs on U.S. products. Other countries have threatened
retaliatory tariffs on certain U.S. products. Global trade disruption, significant introductions of trade barriers and bilateral trade
frictions, together with any future downturns in the global economy resulting therefrom, may limit our ability to obtain key components
