, costs, and risk profile. Patents and Proprietary Rights We strategically protect our intellectual property through a combination of patents, trademarks, trade secrets, confidentiality agreements, and licensing arrangements both domestically and internationally, with plans to strengthen this protection framework as our technology portfolio expands. Our pending and filed patent applications specifically address our advanced reactor designs, passive safety systems, digital twin technology, and specialized nuclear instrumentation and control systems critical to our micro modular reactor technologies. Patent Protection is expected to last until approximately 21 years from the earliest provisional filing date, which would be in 2046 taking into consideration the possibility of a short -termpatent term extension and full payment of all fees. Provisional patents expire one year from their filing date, however such patents remain patent pending as long as a Patent Cooperation Treaty or National phase application claiming a benefit to that provisional patent was filed on or before the one year deadline. The filing of the Regular, PCT or National phase application starts the 20 year available patent term. Together with the one year term of the Provisional Patent, the potential patent term will be approximately 21 years from the filing dates of the provisional applications. There are various factors that might extend or shorten patent terms, including without limitation, (i) excessive delays within the patent office that could result in extensions to the patent term, (ii) Terminal disclaimers that tie patent terms to other patents, and (iii) timely payment of maintenance fees to retain the patent(s) after issue.
