Overview
Alpha Modus Holdings, Inc., through its operating subsidiaries, is a technology and intellectual property company focused on the development, protection, licensing, and commercialization of data-driven systems designed to enhance consumer engagement and decision-making within physical retail environments. The Company was founded in 2014 and is headquartered in Cornelius, North Carolina.
Alpha Modus’ core strategy centers on the creation, licensing and enforcement of a proprietary patent portfolio covering systems and methods for real-time monitoring, analysis, and response to consumer behavior at or near the point of purchase. The Company’s technology is designed to convert previously unstructured consumer interaction data into actionable insights using advanced analytics and artificial intelligence. These insights may be used to support personalized marketing, dynamic digital engagement, smart planograms, inventory management, and enhanced in-store customer assistance.
Evolution of the Business Model
In its early years, Alpha Modus engaged in technology development and limited commercial deployments, including work in financial markets and real estate analytics. During this period, the Company developed algorithmic and analytics-based systems leveraging cloud infrastructure and cognitive computing tools and received industry recognition for innovation in cloud-based analytics.
In 2018, Alpha Modus acquired certain assets, including intellectual property and pending patent applications, from a retail technology company. That acquisition expanded the Company’s focus into retail consumer analytics and real-time engagement technologies. The initial issued patent from this portfolio, U.S. Patent No. 10,360,571 (the “‘571 Patent”), was granted in 2019.
Following this issuance and subsequent patent continuations and related filings, the Company determined that long-term value creation would be better supported by strengthening and expanding its intellectual property position prior to pursuing broad-scale commercialization. As a result, Alpha Modus strategically shifted from near-term software and hardware-centric deployment efforts to a patent-first strategy designed to fortify its intellectual property portfolio, pursue additional patent issuances, and position the Company for structured IP-protected licensing.
Since that time, the Company has expanded its patent portfolio to include additional issued patents and pending applications covering systems and methods for:
| ● | Real-time monitoring and analysis of consumer demographic, sentiment, and behavioral data; |
| ● | Object identification and product interaction analytics; |
| ● | Personalized marketing and advertising tied to in-store location tracking; |
| ● | Dynamic digital displays and interactive engagement systems; |
| ● | Smart planograms and inventory optimization; and |
| ● | Real-time communications, including digital coupons and targeted promotions. |
Intellectual Property Licensing and Enforcement
One of Alpha Modus’ primary revenue strategies is the licensing of its patented technologies to retailers, consumer brands, advertising technology providers, digital media platforms, and other commercial enterprises whose products or services practice or benefit from the claimed inventions.
The Company has entered into intellectual property licensing agreements outside of litigation and continues to pursue negotiated, market-based licensing outcomes. In addition, where appropriate, Alpha Modus actively enforces its intellectual property rights through litigation in federal courts. These enforcement actions are intended to protect shareholder value, deter unauthorized use, and establish structured licensing frameworks across the industries in which the Company’s patented technologies are practiced.
While the Company seeks to resolve disputes through negotiated licensing arrangements where feasible, litigation remains an integral component of its overall commercialization strategy.
Technology Capabilities and Applications
The Company’s patented systems generally involve the use of one or more information monitoring devices—such as video image devices or other sensor technologies—operably connected to servers and databases capable of analyzing gathered information in real time. The analyzed information may include demographic characteristics, sentiment data, product interaction data, and tracking information. Based on such analysis, the systems may provide targeted responses, including digital content engagement, marketing communications, product location guidance, coupons, or other personalized interactions.
Applications of the Company’s patented technologies may include:
| ● | Targeted in-store marketing campaigns; |
| ● | Digital engagement at the point of sale; |
| ● | Consumer behavior analytics and heatmapping; |
| ● | Inventory management and smart planogram optimization; |
| ● | Store-level staffing analytics; and |
| ● | Integration of physical retail data with broader advertising and digital media ecosystems. |
The Company believes that its intellectual property addresses structural challenges facing brick-and-mortar retailers, including the need to compete with digital commerce platforms by delivering measurable, personalized, and performance-driven engagement within physical retail environments.
Commercialization and Ecosystem Strategy
In addition to licensing its patent portfolio, Alpha Modus is pursuing commercialization initiatives designed to deploy its technologies through strategic partnerships, platform integrations, and fintech-enabled retail infrastructure initiatives. These initiatives include the development and planned rollout of consumer-facing applications and in-store kiosk technologies intended to operate within established compliance and payments frameworks. The Company’s commercialization efforts are designed to complement its intellectual property licensing strategy and to demonstrate real-world implementations of its patented systems.
The Company’s long-term objective is to establish its patent portfolio as foundational infrastructure for real-time, data-driven consumer engagement within physical commerce environments, while monetizing such position through structured licensing and strategic partnerships.
The ‘571 Patent Family and the uses thereof
The ‘571 patent family is based on US Patent No. 10,360,571, which issued on July 23, 2019. The ‘571 patent claims priority to a provisional patent application filed on July 19, 2013.
Our business is substantially dependent on the development, protection, and enforcement of our intellectual property portfolio. We own a portfolio of issued United States patents and pending patent applications relating to systems and methods for real-time monitoring, analysis, and response to consumer behavior within physical retail and related digital commerce environments.

| ● | Product interaction and object identification analytics within retail environments; |
| ● | Location-based tracking of consumers within retail stores; |
| ● | Personalized marketing, advertising, and coupon delivery tied to in-store activity; |
| ● | Customer assistance systems within physical retail locations; |
| ● | Store layout generation and product placement optimization; and |
| ● | Real-time communications and purchase options, including digital engagement through interactive devices. |
The patents in our portfolio share priority to earlier filed applications and include continuation filings designed to expand and strengthen claim coverage over time. In addition to our issued patents, we maintain pending U.S. patent applications intended to further broaden and reinforce our intellectual property position.
We seek to protect our intellectual property through a combination of patent prosecution, licensing arrangements, contractual protections, and, where appropriate, enforcement actions. We have entered into intellectual property licensing agreements and may pursue additional licensing opportunities through negotiated arrangements or litigation.
The duration of our issued patents extends for statutory terms generally measured from their respective earliest effective filing dates, subject to any patent term adjustments or extensions. There can be no assurance that pending applications will result in issued patents, that issued patents will not be challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or that our intellectual property rights will provide meaningful competitive protection.
The ‘571 patent received a patent term extension of 1,042 days and does not expire until May 25, 2037. The other patents in the family expire on July 18, 2034. Therefore, there is significant patent life remaining in the ‘571 patent family. Beginning well before the current expiration of our entire patent family, Alpha Modus intends to continue evolving with the industry and developing new concepts that support increasing revenue streams. Alpha Modus intends to expand the use of our patent family as a lever to develop a sales team to drive potential partnerships authorized under the ‘571 patent family.
During 2025, the Company filed additional United States patent applications as reflected in its current patent portfolio schedule, including: (i) U.S. Patent Application No. 19/203,027, titled “Methods for Personalized Marketing of Retail Products”; (ii) U.S. Patent Application No. 19/233,507, titled “Methods for Personalized Marketing of Retail Products”; and (iii) U.S. Patent Application No. 19/309,240, titled “Methods and Systems for Providing Customer Assistance in a Retail Store.” These applications are intended to further expand and strengthen the Company’s intellectual property coverage relating to real-time consumer behavior analysis, personalized marketing, and in-store customer assistance systems.
Alpha Modus believes the ‘571 patent and several family members are being infringed by many major retailers, service providers and consumer brands, and that the adoption of the ‘571 patent (and family) technology is occurring at an exponential pace in the retail marketplace.

Alpha Modus’ headquarters is a virtual facility with an address in Cornelius, North Carolina.

Operations, research and development functions are currently conducted virtually, and Alpha Modus believes its current virtual facility is adequate and suitable for its current needs. Alpha Modus’ plans to expand licensing the ‘571 family of patents through a small internal sales team will require Alpha Modus to secure a suitable alternative space to accommodate its operations.

The Company was originally incorporated in Delaware on April 20, 2021, as a special purpose acquisition company under the name “Insight Acquisition Corp.” (“INAQ”). On October 13, 2023, the Company and Alpha Modus, Corp. entered into the Business Combination Agreement, which was subsequently amended on June 21, 2024. Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, as amended, Alpha Modus, Corp., and the Company agreed that (i) each share of Alpha Modus, Corp. common stock (other than those properly exercising any applicable appraisal rights under applicable law) would be converted into (A) one share of Company common stock, and (B) the contingent right to receive a pro rata portion of the Earnout Shares (as defined below) (which may be zero); and (iii) each share of Alpha Modus, Corp. preferred stock (other than those properly exercising any applicable appraisal rights under applicable law) would be converted into (A) one share of Company Series C Preferred Stock, and (B) the contingent right to receive a pro rata portion of the Earnout Shares (as defined below) (which may be zero) (collectively the “Merger Consideration”).
The stockholders of Alpha Modus, Corp. may be issued up to 2,200,000 additional shares of Company common stock (the “Earnout Shares”). The Earnout Shares will be earned and issued in one-third (1/3) increments (of approximately 733,333 shares) if, for any twenty (20) trading days within any thirty (30)-consecutive trading day period beginning at least 180 days after the Closing and on or prior to the 5-year anniversary of the Closing, the VWAP of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $13.00 per share, $15.00 per share and $18.00 per share (as equitably adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations, recapitalizations and the like after the Closing), respectively, with all remaining Earnout Shares earned and issued upon certain changes of control of the Company at or prior to the 5-year anniversary of the Closing.
Additionally, at the Closing, the Company’s sponsor, Insight Acquisition Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”) was required to deposit 750,000 shares of Company common stock into escrow (the “Sponsor Earnout Shares”), and the Sponsor Earnout Shares will be released to the Sponsor according to the same milestones and timelines applicable to the Earnout Shares described above. Additionally, the Company and the Sponsor agreed that the Sponsor will forfeit and cancel 750,000 shares of Company common stock at Closing. Finally, at the Closing, (i) the Company will to use its best efforts to pay off the Company’s loan(s) from Polar Multi-Strategy Master Fund (“Polar”) (expected to be approximately $975,000 at Closing), (ii) the Company will use its best efforts to pay Alpha Modus, Corp.’s loans from Janbella Group, LLC (“Janbella”) (expected to be approximately $1,400,000 at Closing), (iii) the Company will issue to Janbella 1,392,308 shares of Company common stock, (iv) the Company will issue to Michael Singer 125,000 shares of Company common stock, (v) the Company will issue to Cantor Fitzgerald & Co.

On June 20, 2024, Cantor and Odeon entered into fee modification agreements with the Company pursuant to which (i) Cantor would be issued 210,000 shares of Company common stock and Odeon would be issued 90,000 shares of Company common stock at the closing of the Business Combination, and (ii) Cantor and Odeon would waive the right to any further underwriting commissions or other payments by the Company under its Underwriting Agreement with them, subject to the other terms of those fee modification agreements.
On October 29, 2024, Company stockholders approved the Business Combination and other transactions and proposal presented within the proxy statement/prospectus in connection with Business Combination transactions.
Financing in Connection with Business Combination
On October 23, 2024, Alpha Modus Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “SPA”) with Streeterville Capital, LLC (the “Investor”), pursuant to which the Company would sell, and the Investor would purchase, a secured convertible promissory note in the original principal amount of $2,890,000 (the “Note” or the “Convertible Note”) for a net purchase price of $2,600,000 (after deducting an original issue discount of $260,000, and payment of $30,000 for the Investor’s legal, accounting, due diligence, asset monitoring, and other transaction expenses).
The SPA included customary representations, warranties and covenants by the Company and customary closing conditions. The SPA granted the Investor (i) the right to fund up to an additional $5,000,000 to the Company, with the Company’s consent, through the date that is six months following repayment of the Note in full (the “Reinvestment Right”), and (ii) the exclusive right, on customary market terms, to enter into an equity line of credit or other similar financing arrangement with the Company for at least $20,000,000, through the date that is one year following the Purchase Price Date (defined below). Pursuant the SPA, Alpha Modus, Corp. was required to guarantee all of the Company’s obligations under the Note and related transaction documents pursuant to a guaranty agreement (the “Guaranty”), and the Note will also be secured by security agreements (the “Security Agreements”) by and between the Investor and both the Company and Alpha Modus, Corp., granting the Investor first priority security interests in all assets of the Company, as well as all assets of Alpha Modus, Corp., including all of Alpha Modus’ intellectual property (and including Alpha Modus’ patent portfolio) pursuant to a separate intellectual property security agreement (the “IP Security Agreement”). Additionally, the Company and Alpha Modus (collectively the “Borrowers”), and William Alessi, his entity, Janbella Group, LLC, and the trusts deemed to be beneficially owned by Mr. Alessi (each a “Capital Party” and collectively the “Capital Parties”), were required to execute at closing a subordination and voting agreement (the “Subordination Agreement”) pursuant to which (i) all of the Borrowers’ indebtedness and obligations to each Capital Party were subordinated to Investor, (ii) all security interests of any Capital Party were subordinate to Investor’s security interests, (iii) the Borrowers would not make any payments to any Capital Party, (iv) none of the Capital Parties would accelerate any subordinated debt or equity, (v) and no Capital Party would convert or exchange their preferred stock of the Company into Common Stock, until such time as the Investor had been fully paid and all financing agreements between the Investor and the Borrowers were terminated.
The Note matured 18 months following the date the purchase price is delivered to the Company (the “Purchase Price Date”), accrued interest of 10% per annum, was prepayable (after providing five trading days’ notice) at a 20% premium to the then-outstanding balance of the Note, and was convertible into Class A common stock (“Common Stock”) of the Company as described below. Within 30 days of the Purchase Price Date, the Company was obligated to file a registration statement on Form S-1 with the SEC registering a number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Note, and such registration statement was filed as described below.
The Note was convertible at the election of the Investor into shares of Common Stock at any time following the earlier of the effective date of the registration statement described above or one year following the Purchase Price Date, at a conversion price equal to 90% multiplied by the lowest daily volume-weighted average price during the five trading days preceding conversion, and provided that (i) the Investor may not convert the Note into shares of Common Stock to the extent that such conversion would result in the Investor’s beneficial ownership of Common Stock being in excess of 4.99% (or 9.99% if the Company’s market capitalization is less than $10 million), and provided that (ii) the Note is not convertible into a total cumulative number of shares of Common Stock in excess of the number of shares of Common Stock permitted by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635 (the “Exchange Cap”). Pursuant to the terms of the Note, the Company was required to, within 120 days of the Purchase Price Date, seek shareholder approval of the Note and the issuance of shares of Common Stock, issuable upon conversion of the Note and pursuant to the Reinvestment Right, in excess of the Exchange Cap (the “Shareholder Approvals”). If such shareholder approval is not obtained within 120 days, the Company was required to continue to seek shareholder approval every three months thereafter until shareholder approval is obtained. Pursuant to the Subordination Agreement, each Capital Party was required to vote all of their shares of Company stock in favor of the Shareholder Approvals. Under the SPA, the Company was required to initially reserve 7,500,000 shares of its Common Stock for issuance to the Investor under the Note, and the Company was required to add additional shares to the reserve in increments of 100,000 shares when requested by the Investor if at the time of the request the number of shares being held in reserve is less than three times the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the outstanding balance under the Note divided by the applicable conversion price at that time.
On December 12, 2024, the Company amended the SPA (the “Amended SPA”) to revise the terms of the Note. Pursuant to the Amended SPA, the Note was not convertible below a floor price of $4.00/share, but if the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock is less than the floor price for ten consecutive trading days, the Company is required to begin making monthly payments under the Note on the date that is 90 days following the original funding date.
On or about December 13, 2024, the Company issued the Note to the Investor, the Note was funded on or about December 16, 2024, and the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock was subsequently less than the $4.00 floor price for more than ten consecutive trading days, which, under the terms of the Amended SPA, would have required the Company to begin making monthly payments under the Note, with those monthly payments commencing on March 16, 2025, and with those monthly payments being equal to 120% multiplied by the outstanding balance divided by the lesser of 6 or the number of months remaining until the Note’s maturity date.
On January 27, 2025, the Company and the Investor entered into an amendment to the Note providing that (i) the Company was not required to begin making monthly payments under the Note until May 16, 2025, (ii) the monthly payments will equal $485,000.00 plus all accrued but unpaid interest, multiplied by 120%, and (iii) the Company would pay to the Investor 50% of all proceeds received by the Company from any equity line of credit or similar arrangement within one trading day of receipt by the Company.
On April 28, 2025, the Company and the Investor entered into a second amendment to the Note (the “Second Amendment”) providing that (i) the 20% prepayment penalty under the Note was eliminated, but the outstanding balance of the Note was increased to $3,597,501.71 (i.e., the outstanding balance under the Note as of April 28, 2025, plus the prepayment penalty of 20% as of April 28, 2025), (ii) the Company would have the right on up to three occasions to extend the monthly payment start date for one month, with the outstanding balance automatically increasing by one percent for each extension, (iii) the monthly payments would equal $582,000 plus all accrued but unpaid interest, (iv) the floor price was reduced to $1.25, (v) the Investor’s beneficial ownership limitation was increased to 9.99%, (vi) the Company agreed to hold a stockholder meeting within 60 days to approve the issuances to the Investor under the Note and under an equity line of credit agreement with the Investor in excess of the Exchange Cap (as such term was defined in the Note), (vii) the Company agreed to sell the Investor 1,250,000 shares of common stock (the “Pre-Delivery Shares”) for $125, which Pre-Delivery Shares shall be used by the Investor only as pre-delivery shares under the Note and a future equity line of credit agreement between the Company and the Investor, (viii) the Company agreed to file a registration statement to register the Pre-Delivery Shares and other shares of common stock issuable to the Investor upon conversion of the Note, and (ix) the Investor provided its written consent to the Company entering into the Patent Monetization Agreement and Option Agreement described below.
A registration statement registering shares for resale by the Investor was filed by the Company with the SEC pursuant to the Company’s obligations under the Second Amendment to register Pre-Delivery Shares and other shares of common stock issuable to the Investor upon conversion of the Note (of which 1,250,000 Pre-Delivery Shares and 3,000,000 other conversion shares were registered for resale in that registration statement). That registration statement was declared effective by the SEC on May 23, 2025. On May 29, 2025, the Investor converted $767,000 of the Note into 613,600 shares of Company common stock. On June 11, 2025, the Investor converted $125,000 of the Note into 100,000 shares of Company common stock. On July 10, 2025, the Investor converted $162,500 of the Note into 130,000 shares of Company common stock. On July 16, 2025, the Investor converted $150,000 of the Note into 120,000 shares of Company common stock. On July 23, 2025, the Investor converted an aggregate of $2,545,500 of the Note into 2,036,400 shares of Company common stock, leaving a balance due to the Investor under the Note of approximately $11,312.28, which the Company paid on July 23, 2025, satisfying the note in full. On or about July 25, 2025, the Company repurchased the 1,250,000 Pre-Delivery Shares from the Investor for $125, and on or about August 6, 2025, the Pre-Delivery Shares were returned to the Company by the Investor and cancelled.
Business Combination Closing
On December 13, 2024, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement consummated the Business Combination, and in connection with closing issued the Note to the Investor, and entered into the Guaranty, Security Agreements, IP Security Agreement, and Subordination Agreement. Immediately upon the consummation of the Business Combination, Alpha Modus, Corp. became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, the Company changed its name to “Alpha Modus Holdings, Inc.,” and the Company is now listed on Nasdaq under the symbol “AMOD”. The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization. Under this method of accounting, INAQ is treated as the acquired company for financial statement reporting purposes. See “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information and Other Data.” Legacy Alpha Modus’ financial statements for previous periods will be disclosed in the Company’s future periodic reports filed with the SEC.
In connection with the Business Combination, approximately 426,136 shares of common stock were redeemed, which represented a significant portion of the publicly traded shares outstanding immediately prior to the Business Combination and resulted in only approximately $1.16 million of cash from the INAQ trust account becoming available to Alpha Modus in connection with the closing of the Business Combination. In the Business Combination, the Company issued 5,295,000 shares of common stock and 7,500,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock to Legacy Alpha Modus’ shareholders as merger consideration in the Business Combination, and the Company issued 1,817,308 shares of common stock to various parties as required by the Business Combination Agreement. Immediately following the Business Combination, including the redemption of shares described above, there were 12,455,252 shares of the Company’s common stock (all Class A common stock) issued and outstanding, and 7,500,000 shares of the Company’s Series C Preferred Stock issued and outstanding.
As a result of becoming a publicly traded company, we will need to hire additional personnel and implement procedures and processes to address public company regulatory requirements and customary practices. We expect to incur additional annual expenses as a public company for, among other things, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, director fees and additional internal and external accounting and legal and administrative resources, including increased audit and legal fees.
Other Recent Developments
On April 28, 2025, the Company entered into a Patent Monetization Agreement (the “Patent Monetization Agreement”) with Alpha Modus Ventures, LLC, a North Carolina limited liability company controlled by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, William Alessi (“AMV”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to provide litigation funding to AMV in connection with AMV’s recently filed patent litigation suit against Broadcom Inc. for infringement of AMV’s patents relating to methods and apparatus for transporting of fibre channel data over ethernet (U.S. Patent Nos. 11,108,591, 11,303,473, and 11,310,077), and the parties agreed that the gross proceeds from the litigation would first be paid to the Company until it has received the return of amounts funded for the litigation, and then 65% to the Company until it has received a five times return, then 45% to the Company until it has received an additional two times return, and then 35% to the Company.
On April 28, 2025, and in connection with entering into the Patent Monetization Agreement, the Company entered into an Option Agreement (the “Option Agreement”) with AMV’s owners (Janbella Group, LLC, an entity controlled by Mr. Alessi, and Chris Chumas, the Company’s Chief Sales Officer), pursuant to which the Company received the right to acquire AMV from its owners for an option exercise price consisting of the following: (i) the termination by the Company of the Patent Monetization Agreement and AMV’s related payment obligations to the Company under the Patent Monetization Agreement, (ii) the payment of $300,000 to Janbella Group, LLC (in satisfaction of which Janbella Group, LLC will release AMV of its $300,000 repayment obligation to Janbella Group, LLC) as soon as the Investor (defined above) has been repaid in full, and (iii) the issuance by the Company to AMV’s owners in the aggregate of a number of shares of common stock equal to $35,000,000 divided by the closing price of the Company’s common stock immediately prior to closing, which closing shall not occur until the Company’s shareholders have approved such transaction and issuance of common stock as required by Nasdaq’s listing rules.

We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of: (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) ending December 31, 2026, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.07 billion, or (c) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the end of the prior fiscal year’s second fiscal quarter; and (2) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period. References herein to “emerging growth company” shall have the meaning associated with it in the JOBS Act.
Smaller Reporting Company
Additionally, we are a “smaller reporting company” as defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K. Smaller reporting companies may take advantage of certain reduced disclosure obligations, including, among other things, providing only two years of audited financial statements. We will remain a smaller reporting company until the last day of the fiscal year in which (i) the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $250 million as of the prior June 30, or (ii) our annual revenues exceeded $100 million during such completed fiscal year and the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the prior June 30.
Controlled Company
By virtue of the fact that Alpha Modus’ CEO, William Alessi, is deemed to beneficially own shares of stock having more than 50% of the total voting power of the shares of our capital stock, we qualify as a “controlled company” within the meaning of the corporate governance standards of the Nasdaq. Under these rules, a listed company of which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, group or another company is a “controlled company” and may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance requirements, including the requirement that (i) a majority of our board consist of independent directors, (ii) we have a compensation committee that is composed entirely of independent directors, and (iii) we have a nominating/corporate governance committee that is composed entirely of independent directors.
Employees
We presently have 9 employees. We utilize consultants as well, we have never experienced work stoppages, and we are not a party to any collective bargaining agreement.
