 us to liability if we violate these controls.

In some cases, we may be subject to export control laws and regulations, including the Export Administration Regulations administered by the U. S. Department of Commerce, and our activities may be subject to trade and economic sanctions, including those administered by the United States Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“ OFAC”). As such, a license could be required to export or re-export our products to certain countries and end-users and for certain end-uses. For example, following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the United States and other countries imposed economic sanctions and severe export control restrictions against Russia and Belarus, and the United States and other countries could impose wider sanctions and export restrictions and take other actions should the conflict further escalate. Any exports or sales of our products into Russia and Belarus may be impacted by these restrictions. If we were to fail to comply with such U. S. export controls laws and regulations, U. S. economic sanctions, or other similar laws, we could be subject to both civil and criminal penalties, including substantial fines, possible incarceration for employees and managers for willful violations, and the possible loss of our export privileges. Obtaining the necessary export license for a particular sale may not be possible and may be time-consuming and may result in the delay or loss of sales opportunities. Further, U. S. export control laws and economic sanctions prohibit the export of products to certain U. S. embargoed or sanctioned countries, governments, and persons, as well as for prohibited end-uses. Any failure by us or our partners to comply with such laws and regulations could have negative consequences for us, including reputational harm, government investigations, and penalties.

In addition, our future results could be adversely affected by changes in interpretations of existing laws and regulations, or changes in laws and regulations, including, among others, changes in accounting standards, taxation requirements, competition laws, trade laws, import and export restrictions, privacy laws and environmental laws domestically and internationally. It is unknown whether and to what extent new tariffs (or other new laws or regulations) will be adopted, or the effect that any such actions would have on us or our industry and customers. Any unfavorable government policies on international trade, such as export and import controls, capital controls or

tariffs, may affect the demand for our products and services, increase the cost of components, delay production, impact the competitive position of our products or prevent us from being able to sell products in certain countries. If any new export
