 Litigation could result in substantial costs and diversion of management resources, which could harm our business
and financial results. In addition, in an infringement proceeding, a court may decide that a patent owned by or licensed to us is invalid
or unenforceable, or may refuse to stop the other party from using the technology at issue on the grounds that our patents do not cover
the technology in question. An adverse result in any litigation proceeding could put one or more of our patents at risk of being invalidated,
held unenforceable or interpreted narrowly. Furthermore, because of the substantial amount of discovery required in connection with intellectual
property litigation, there is a risk that some of our confidential information could be compromised by disclosure during this type of
litigation.

Third parties may initiate legal proceedings alleging that we are infringing their intellectual property rights, the outcome of which would be uncertain and could have a material adverse effect on the success of our business.

Our commercial success depends
upon our ability and the ability of our collaborators and licensing partners to develop, manufacture, market and sell our product candidates,
and to use our proprietary technologies without infringing the proprietary rights of third parties. We may become party to, or threatened
with, future adversarial proceedings or litigation regarding intellectual property rights with respect to our products and technology.
Third parties may assert infringement claims against us based on existing patents or patents that may be granted in the future. If we
are found to infringe a third party’s intellectual property rights, we could be required to obtain a license from such third party
to continue developing and commercializing our products and technology. However, we may not be able to obtain any required license on
commercially reasonable terms or at all. Even if we are able to obtain a license, it may be non-exclusive, thereby giving our competitors
access to the same technologies licensed to us. We could be forced, including by court order, to cease commercializing the infringing
technology or product. In addition, in any such proceeding or litigation, we could be found liable for monetary damages. A finding of
infringement could prevent us from commercializing our product candidates or force us to cease some of our business operations, which
could materially harm our business. Any claims by third parties that we have misappropriated our confidential information or trade secrets
could have a similar negative impact on our business.

We may be subject to claims that our employees have wrongfully used or disclosed alleged trade secrets of their former employers.
