Risk Factors (continued) RISKS RELATED TO LIVEWIRE'S BUSINESS AND INDUSTRY (CONTINUED) • We, our outsourcing partners, and our suppliers are subject to numerous regulations. Unfavorable changes to, or failure by us, our outsourcing partners or our suppliers to comply with these regulations could substantially harm our business and operating results. • We are or may be subject to risks associated with strategic alliances or acquisitions. • Changes in U.S. or international trade policy, including the continuation or imposition of tariffs and the resulting consequences, could adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition, and operating results. • Any financial or economic crisis, or perceived threat of such a crisis, including a significant decrease in consumer confidence, may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. • If we fail to implement and maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we may be unable to accurately report our results of operations, meet our reporting obligations, or prevent fraud. • Our insurance coverage strategy may not be adequate to protect us from all business risks. • The success of our business depends on the availability of power and charging infrastructure for electric vehicles. Limitations on that infrastructure may negatively impact our business. Unexpected termination of leases, failure to renew the lease of our existing premises or to renew such leases at acceptable terms could materially and adversely affect our business. • Unanticipated changes in effective tax rates or adverse outcomes resulting from examination of our income or other tax returns could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. Changes in tax laws or regulations that are applied adversely to us or our customers may materially adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition, and operating results. • We may seek to obtain future financing through the issuance of debt or equity, which may have an adverse effect on our shareholders or may otherwise adversely affect our business. • A market for LiveWire's securities may not continue, which would adversely affect the liquidity and price of its securities. If securities or industry analysts do not publish or cease publishing research or reports about LiveWire, its business, or its market, or if they change their recommendations regarding common stock adversely, then the price and trading volume of common stock could decline. ● ● • We may grant options and other types of awards under our share incentive plan, which may result in increased share-based compensation expenses. • LiveWire may be unable to complete ESG initiatives, in whole or in part, which could lead to less opportunity for LiveWire to have ESG investors and partners and could negatively impact ESG-focused investors when evaluating LiveWire. • Our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected by pandemics (including COVID-19) and epidemics, natural disasters, terrorist activities, political unrest, and other outbreaks. • We may need to defend ourselves against intellectual property right infringement claims, which may be time-consuming and would cause us to incur substantial costs. The Company may incur significant costs and expenses in connection with protecting and enforcing its intellectual property rights, including through litigation. • If we are unable to protect or enforce our rights in our proprietary technology, brands or other intellectual property, our competitive advantage, business, financial condition and results of operations could be harmed. 54
