| ● | our ability to scale in a cost-effective manner and maintain and expand our manufacturing and supply chain relationships; |
| ● | our expectation that we will incur substantial expenses and continuing losses for the foreseeable future; |
| ● | our expectations regarding reliance on a limited number of customers and efforts to diversify our customer base; |
| ● | our expectations regarding the timing of obtaining stockholder approval for certain issuances; |
| ● | our expectations regarding our ability to obtain and maintain intellectual property protection and not infringe on the rights of others; |
| ● | general economic and socio-political conditions and their impact on demand for our technology and on the supply chain on which we rely; |

These forward-looking statements are based on information available as of the date of this report and current expectations, forecasts, and assumptions, and involve a number of judgments, risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing our views as of any subsequent date, and we undertake no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date they were made, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.
You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.
