 relationships with new distributors on favorable terms; and |

We may not be able to compete
successfully against larger and better-funded sales and marketing campaigns of some of our current or future competitors, especially if
these competitors provide their distributors with more favorable arrangements. We cannot assure you that we will not lose any of our distributors
to our competitors, which could cause us to lose some or all of our favorable arrangements with such distributors and may result in the
termination of our relationships with other distributors. In addition, we may not be able to successfully manage our distributors and
the cost of any consolidation or further expansion of our distribution and sales network may exceed the revenue generated from these efforts.
There can be no assurance that we will be successful in detecting any non-compliance by our distributors with the provisions of their
distribution agreements. Non-compliance by our distributors could, among other things, negatively affect our brand, demand for our products
and our relationships with other distributors. Furthermore, if the sales volumes of our products to consumers are not maintained at a
satisfactory level or if distributor orders fail to track consumers demand, our distributors may not place orders for new products from
us, or decrease the quantity of their usual orders. The occurrence of any of these factors could result in a significant decrease in the
sales volume of our products and therefore adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Adverse publicity involving us, our products, our raw materials, our directors, our management team, our competitors or our industry could materially and adversely impact our business and results of operations.

The food industry in China
and the United States is particularly sensitive to concerns over food safety and quality related issues and can be materially and adversely
affected by negative publicity or news reports, whether accurate or not, regarding food safety and quality and public health concerns.
Any such negative publicity on our industry, whether targeting us in particular or not, could materially harm our brand, business and
results of operations. Complaints or claims against us, if any, even if without any sufficient evidence, could force us to divert our
resources, which may adversely affect our business, operations and financial performance.

We operate in a highly competitive industry. Failure to compete effectively could adversely affect our market share, growth and profitability.

We operate in the food industry
in China and the United States, in particular the RTC and RTE food industry, which is highly competitive, and the competition may further
intensify. Some of our competitors, may have been in their respective businesses longer than we have
