The Company will then assemble and compile the latest code for the app, set the appropriate code signing for the app, put the app through testing and quality assurance checks and produce and release the app; some of these tasks are accomplished by automated processes, but such automation is not currently accomplished through AI.  The Company is leveraging generative AI today in the creation of configuration files by transforming sets of defined inputs into standardized configuration file outputs.  In the future, the Company plans to further integrate generative AI into the App Creator process to facilitate collection and evaluation of inputs - such as customer-provided content, branding materials, and other relevant information - and automatically generate the necessary configuration files.  We expect this to evolve into largely AI-related automated processes to build the app itself.</font></p>

The research provides information on the direction of global mobile app market and opportunities which exist in this market and supports the Company&#x2019;s vision to transition to the new scalable platform; however, the Company has not yet provided specific revenue projections for mobile app sales using the new platform due to uncertainty of the acceptance of its offerings.</font><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;"> </font></p>

It is too early to predict which of these global initiatives will best drive growth for the Company&#x2019;s platform, as product-market fit is still being validated.  The size of the global mobile app market reflects the relevance and alignment of the Company&#x2019;s new strategy with a rapidly growing industry, even if its specific growth targets have not yet been defined.</font></p>

Investments in new services and technologies may not be successful and may involve pursuing new lines of business or strategic transactions and investments, or dispositions of assets or businesses that may no longer help us meet our objectives. Such efforts may not be successful.&#x201d; As this corporate initiative continues to evolve, the Company will continue to evaluate its risk factor disclosures relating to the Company&#x2019;s use of and reliance on artificial intelligence technology and add such tailored risk factor disclosures in future filings, as warranted.</font></p>
