If the Company is not able to raise additional capital, it may be forced to consider alternatives for winding down its business, which may include offering its patents for sale or filing for bankruptcy bankruptcy, in law, settlement of the liabilities of a person or organization wholly or partially unable to meet financial obligations. The purposes are to distribute, through a court-appointed receiver, the bankrupt's assets equitably among creditors and, in most  protection. Moreover, if any of the holders of the convertible notes issued by the Company take action to collect the amounts owed by the Company under these notes, the Company will be forced to consider alternatives for winding down its business, which may include offering its patents for sale or filing for bankruptcy protection. These and other factors may cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated.
