•share price and volume fluctuations attributable to inconsistent trading volume levels of our shares;

•natural disasters, pandemics, acts of terrorism and other events beyond our control; and

Furthermore, in recent years, the stock markets have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have affected and continue to affect the market prices of equity securities of many companies, and technology companies in particular. These fluctuations often have been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies.
