 regulatory review process. However, the Company may not receive an extension if the Company fails to apply within applicable deadlines, fails to apply prior to expiration of relevant patents, fails to exercise due diligence during the testing Phase or regulatory review process or otherwise fails to satisfy applicable requirements, and the Company may not prevail in any actions that it may bring under the Hatch-Waxman amendments against generic manufacturers or others. Moreover, the length of the extension could be less than what the Company requests. If the Company is unable to obtain patent term extension or the term of any such extension is less than its requests, the period during which the Company can enforce its patent rights for that product will be shortened, and its competitors may obtain approval to market competing products sooner. As a result, Innate's revenue from an applicable product could be reduced, which could have a material adverse effect on its business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

The Company will not seek to protect its intellectual property rights in all jurisdictions throughout the world, and Innate may not be able to adequately enforce its intellectual property rights in all jurisdictions where Innate Pharma seeks intellectual property protection.

Filing, maintaining, prosecuting and defending patents on Innate's product candidates in all countries and jurisdictions throughout the world would be prohibitively expensive, and its intellectual property rights in some countries outside the United States could be less extensive than those in the United States. Consequently, the Company may not be able to prevent third parties from using its product candidates or technologies in all countries outside the United States, or from selling or importing products made using its product candidates or technologies in and into the United States or other jurisdictions. Competitors may use Innate's technologies in jurisdictions where Innate Pharma does not pursue and obtain patent protection to develop their own products and, further, may export otherwise infringing products to territories where the Company has patent protection, and enforcement is not as strong as that in the United States. These products may compete with Innate's products, and its patents or other intellectual property rights may not be effective or sufficient to prevent them from competing. Even if the Company pursues and obtains issued patents in particular jurisdictions, its patent claims or other intellectual property rights may not be effective or sufficient to prevent third parties from so competing.

In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect intellectual property rights to the same extent as the federal and state laws in the United States. Many companies have encountered significant

problems in protecting and defending intellectual property rights in certain foreign jurisdictions. The legal systems of some countries, particularly
