This press release contains "forward-looking statements" within
the meaning of the federal securities laws, including Section 27A
of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking
statements are based on information available to the Company as of
the date hereof, as well as the Company’s current expectations,
assumptions, estimates and projections that involve risks and

forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that
involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the
Company’s control, and are not guarantees of future results. These
and other forward-looking statements are subject to risks,
uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results to
differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking
statements. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors
that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
indicated in such statements and, therefore, you should not place
undue reliance on any such statements and caution must be exercised
in relying on forward-looking statements. Important risk factors
that may cause such a difference include, but are not limited to:
the Company’s ability to implement its business strategy; the
Company’s ability to enter into new and renewal license agreements
with customers on favorable terms; the Company’s ability to retain
and hire key personnel; uncertainty as to the long-term value of

terrorism or outbreak of war or hostilities, including Russia’s
invasion of Ukraine, and natural disasters; and the extent to which
the COVID-19 pandemic continues to have an adverse impact on the
Company’s business, results of operations, and financial condition
will depend on future developments, including measures taken in
response to the pandemic, which are highly uncertain and cannot be
predicted. These risks, as well as other risks associated with the

material differences in results as compared with those anticipated
in the forward-looking statements could include, among other
things, business disruption, operational problems, financial loss,
legal liability to third parties and similar risks, any of which
could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated
financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or trading
price of common stock. The Company does not assume any obligation
to publicly provide revisions or updates to any forward- looking
