-SPAC merger transactions to recoup these fees.

Unfavorable outcomes or developments relating to proceedings to which we are a party or transactions involving our products, such as judgments for monetary damages, injunctions, or denial or revocation of permits, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. In addition, settlement of claims could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

The retail price of our products may be subject to control by government authorities, which may cause a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Our main products are our vegetable oils derived from oil seeds, which may be recognized by governments and regulators as one of the essential daily goods purchased by common people. When domestic and international market prices of edible vegetable oil rise sharply and cause serious impact on consumption, governmental authorities may consider conducting price controls in the form of fixed retail prices or retail price ceilings. If this were to happen in Australia, we may face operational pressure for increasing costs, and our profit level may be likely lowered. Any future price controls or government mandated price reductions may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations, including significantly reducing our revenue and profitability.

Our business requires a number of permits and licenses in order to carry on our business.

Food manufacturers in Australia are required to obtain certain permits and licenses from various governmental authorities, including Food Standards Australia New Zealand (“FSANZ”). All foods sold in Australia must also comply with a range of laws designed to protect consumer, plant, and animal health and we are subject to regulations pertaining to the agricultural and forestry industry. We have obtained licenses currently required, including for the manufacture and operation of edible vegetable oil.

However, we cannot assure you that we can maintain all required licenses and certificates to carry on our business at all times, and in the past from time to time we may not have been in compliance with all such required licenses or certificates. Moreover, these licenses and certificates are subject to periodic renewal and/or reassessment by the relevant governmental authorities and the standards of such renewal or reassessment may change from time to time. We intend to apply for the renewal of these licenses and certificates when required by then applicable laws and regulations. Any failure by us to obtain and maintain all licenses or certificates necessary to carry on our business at any time could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, any inability to renew these licenses and certificates could severely disrupt our business and prevent us from continuing to carry on our business
