lag behind the actual discoveries, and patent applications in the U.S. and other jurisdictions are typically not published until 18 months
after filing, or in some cases not at all. Therefore, Veea cannot be certain that Veea or Veea’s licensors were the first to make
the inventions claimed in any of Veea’s owned or licensed patents or pending patent applications, or that Veea or Veea’s
licensors were the first to file for patent protection of such inventions.

The
patent position of technology companies generally is highly uncertain and involves complex legal and factual questions. As a result,
the issuance, scope, validity, enforceability and commercial value of Veea’s patent rights are highly uncertain. Veea’s patent
applications may not result in patents being issued which protect Veea’s products and other proprietary technologies which Veea
may develop, or which effectively prevent others from commercializing competitive technologies and products. In particular, Veea’s
ability to stop third parties from making, using, selling, offering to sell, or importing products that infringe Veea’s intellectual
property will depend in part on Veea’s success in obtaining and enforcing patent claims that cover all of Veea’s technology,
inventions and improvements. With respect to both licensed and company-owned intellectual property, Veea cannot be sure that patents
will be granted with respect to any of Veea’s pending patent applications or with respect to any patent applications filed by us
in the future. Moreover, even issued patents do not provide Veea with the right to practice Veea’s technology in relation to the
commercialization of Veea’s products. Third parties may have blocking patents that could be used to prevent us from commercializing
Veea’s products and practicing Veea’s proprietary technology. Veea’s issued patent as well as patents that may issue
in the future that Veea owns or licenses may be challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, which could limit Veea’s ability to stop
competitors from marketing related products or limit the length of the term of patent protection that Veea may have for Veea’s
products. Furthermore, Veea’s competitors may independently develop similar technologies.

Additionally,
issuance of a patent is not conclusive as to its inventorship, scope, validity, or enforceability, and Veea’s patents may be challenged
in the courts or patent offices in the U.S. and abroad. Veea may be subject to a third-party pre-issuance submission of prior art
