ification and other contractual obligations, regulatory investigations, government fines and penalties, reputational damage, loss of sales and customers, mitigation and remediation expenses and other significant costs and liabilities. In addition, we may incur significant economic and operational consequences in order to appropriately assess and respond to security incidents and to implement appropriate safeguards to protect against future incidents. We do not believe that Lifted's insurance will be adequate or sufficient to cover the potentially significant losses that may result from an IT security incident.

Additionally, as we increase reliance on third-party and public cloud infrastructure, we depend in part on third-party security measures to protect against unauthorized access, cyberattacks and the mishandling of data. However, we have little or no ability to monitor our third-party service providers’ data security. Similarly, employee error or malfeasance in configuring, maintaining, and using services offered by third-party providers may affect our ability to monitor and secure such services. Any breach of our providers’ security measures or misconfiguration or misuse of our software or our providers’ services may result in unauthorized access to, or the misuse, loss or destruction of, our and our customers’ data or in a violation of our terms or applicable law, which may result in reputational harm or liability.

We cannot guarantee that Lifted's IT systems have not been compromised or that they do not contain exploitable defects or bugs that could result in a breach of or disruption to our platform, systems and network or the systems and networks of third parties that support us and our business. Third parties may also exploit vulnerabilities in, or obtain unauthorized access to, platforms, systems, networks, or physical facilities utilized by us or our third-party vendors or service providers. Furthermore, supply chain disruptions due to wars and/or sanctions (and resulting legal or regulatory developments) and any indirect effects may further complicate any existing supply chain constraints. 

All of the foregoing risks may have a material adverse effect on our Company and the trading price of our common stock.
