We might not successfully commercialize our technology, and commercial-scale plants based on the Syntroleum Process or our Technology may never be successfully constructed or operated. Many of our competitors have significantly more resources than we do, and technologies developed by competitors could become more commercially successful than ours or render our technologies obsolete. We could have potential indemnification liabilities to licensees relating to the operation of plants based on the Syntroleum and Synfining Processes or our Bio-Synfining Technology or intellectual property disputes. We will need to obtain funds from additional financings or other sources for our business activities. If we do not receive these funds, we would need to reduce, delay or eliminate some of our expenditures. Construction of plants based on the Syntroleum and Synfining Processes or Bio-Synfining Technology will be subject to risks of delay and cost overruns. We cannot predict the future markets and prices for oil, natural gas, coal or other materials used in the Syntroleum and Synfining Processes and Bio-Synfining Technology or refined products. Our receipt of license fees depends on substantial efforts by our licensees, and our licensees could choose not to construct a plant based on the Syntroleum and Synfining Processes or Bio-Synfining Technology or to pursue alternative technologies. We depend on strategic relationships with feedstock suppliers, construction contractors, site owners, manufacturing and engineering companies, and customers. If we are not successful in entering into and achieving the benefits of these relationships, this could negatively impact our business. We are subject to extensive laws relating to the protection of the environment, and these laws may increase the cost of designing, constructing and operating our plants based on the Syntroleum Processes or our Bio-Synfining Technology or affect demand for the products of these plants.
