 seek patent protection in certain countries, and we will not have the benefit of patent protection
in those countries.

Our competitors or other third parties
might conduct research and development activities in countries where we do not have patent rights and then use the information learned
from such activities to develop competitive products for sale in our major commercial markets.

Additionally,
in the event that our trademarks are successfully challenged in the United States and in jurisdictions outside of the United States, we
could be forced to rebrand our products, which could result in loss of brand recognition and could require us to devote resources to advertising
and marketing new brands. Our competitors may infringe our trademarks, and we may not have adequate resources to enforce our trademarks.

The legal systems
of certain countries, particularly certain developing countries, do not favor the enforcement of patents, trade secrets and other intellectual
property protection, which could make it difficult for us to stop the infringement of patents we own or in-license, or marketing of competing
products against third parties in violation of our intellectual property rights generally. The initiation of proceedings by third parties
to challenge the scope or validity of our patent rights in foreign jurisdictions could result in substantial cost and divert our efforts
and attention from other aspects of our business. Proceedings to enforce our patent rights in the United States and in jurisdictions outside
of the United States could result in substantial costs and divert our efforts and attention from other aspects of our business, could
put patents we own or in-license at risk of being invalidated or interpreted narrowly and patent applications to which we have rights
at risk of not issuing, and could provoke third parties to assert claims against us. We may not prevail in any lawsuits that we initiate
and the damages or other remedies awarded, if any, may not be commercially meaningful. Further, we may not always detect infringement
of our intellectual property rights, and defending our intellectual property rights, even if successfully detected, prosecuted, enjoined,
or remedied, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources. Accordingly, our efforts to enforce our
intellectual property rights around the world may be inadequate to obtain a significant commercial advantage from the intellectual property
that we develop or license.

If we cannot protect and
control trade secrets or other know-how and proprietary technology that is not patent protected, we may suffer competitive harm.

Besides patented
intellectual property, we may also rely on trade secrets, unpatented proprietary technology, confidential information and know-how to
protect our technology and maintain our competitive position, particularly
