, and several more established companies may pursue strategies to license or acquire third-party intellectual property rights Kineta may consider attractive or necessary. These established companies may have a competitive advantage over Kineta due to their size, capital resources and greater clinical development and commercialization capabilities. In addition, companies that perceive Kineta to be a competitor may be unwilling to assign or license rights to Kineta. Even if Kineta is able to obtain a license under such intellectual property rights, any such license may be non-exclusive, which may allow Kineta’s competitors to access the same technologies licensed to Kineta.

Moreover, some of Kineta’s owned and in-licensed patents or patent applications or future patents may be co-owned with third parties. If Kineta is unable to obtain an exclusive license to any such third-party co-owners’ interest in such patents or patent applications, such co-owners may be able to license their rights to other third parties, including Kineta’s competitors, and Kineta’s competitors could market competing products and technology. In addition, Kineta may need the cooperation of any such co-owners of Kineta’s patents in order to enforce such patents against third parties, and such cooperation may not be provided to Kineta. Furthermore, Kineta’s owned and in-licensed patents may be subject to a reservation of rights by one or more third parties.

Third parties may allege that Kineta has infringed, misappropriated or otherwise violated their intellectual property. Litigation or other legal proceedings relating to intellectual property claims, with or without merit, is unpredictable and generally expensive and time consuming and, even if resolved in Kineta’s favor, is likely to divert significant resources from Kineta’s core business, including distracting Kineta’s technical and management personnel from their normal responsibilities. In addition, there could be public announcements of the results of hearings, motions or other interim proceedings or developments and if securities analysts or investors perceive these results to be negative, it could have
