 launched and can originate from a wide
variety of sources, as discussed above. Even if identified, we may not be able to adequately investigate or remediate incidents or breaches
due to attacks increasingly using tools and techniques that are designed to circumvent controls, to avoid detection, and to remove or
obfuscate forensic evidence. Accordingly, our data protection efforts and related security measures may not be adequate to protect against
highly targeted sophisticated cyber-attacks, or other improper disclosures of confidential and/or sensitive information. Additionally,
we may have access to confidential or other sensitive information of our customers. suppliers, or services providers which despite our
efforts to protect, may be vulnerable to security breaches, theft, or improper disclosure any of which could have a material adverse
effect on our competitive position, results of operations, cash flows or financial condition. The increase in personnel working remotely
during and after the recent pandemic has increased the risk for our and our vendors and suppliers’ security breaches and incidents.
If a security breach or other incident results in the unauthorized access to or use, disclosure, release, or other processing of confidential
or proprietary information, we could incur liability and it may be necessary to notify persons, governmental authorities, supervisory
bodies, the media and other parties pursuant to privacy and security laws. Any such access, disclosure or other loss of information could
result in legal claims, proceedings, liability under laws that protect the privacy of personal information of our employees or others,
and any such event could disrupt our operations, damage our reputation, and cause loss of confidence in us. Our contracts with our customers,
suppliers, or services providers may not contain limitation of liability and there can be no assurance that limitations of liability
in our contracts are sufficient to protect us from liabilities, damages, or claims related to privacy, data protection, or data security.
Further, we can give no assurance that our insurance coverage will be adequate or sufficient to cover the financial, legal, business
or reputational losses that may result from an interruption or breach of our systems, that such coverage will continue to be available
on commercially reasonable terms or at all, or that such coverage will pay future claims. Any of these risks could materially affect
our consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

Future
acquisitions or business opportunities could involve unknown risks that could harm our business and adversely affect our financial condition
and results of operations.

We are a holding company that owns interests in a number of different businesses.
