On June 2, 2026, a hearing was held before the Supreme People’s Court of China in connection with the Company’s appeal. The hearing focused primarily on infringement comparison issues, including whether the accused products contain certain claim features at issue. The appeal proceedings remain ongoing, and the Company expects that an additional hearing may be scheduled. In June 2026, the Company received a first-instance judgment from the Beijing Intellectual Property Court in connection with one of the patent invalidation proceedings. The judgment was favorable to the Company on certain issues but did not resolve all matters in the Company’s favor. The Company has decided to appeal certain aspects of the judgment. In the normal course of business to facilitate sales of its products, the Company indemnifies other parties, including customers, with respect to certain matters, for example, including against losses arising from a breach of representations or covenants, or from intellectual property infringement or other claims. These agreements may limit the time within which an indemnification claim can be made and the amount of the claim. In addition, the Company has entered into indemnification agreements with its officers and directors, and the Company’s bylaws contain similar indemnification obligations to the Company’s agents. It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount under these indemnification agreements due to the limited history of prior indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement.
