  BIGC's valuation and its financial impact on the Company (including the extent of any gains) are subject to change based on market conditions and other factors.  Additionally, gains are currently unrealized, and the extent to which such gains will become realized is subject to a variety of factors, including, among other things, the expiration of current lock-up agreements to which the securities are subject (currently scheduled to expire February 1, 2021), the timing of any actual sales of the securities, changes in the valuation of the securities, and market conditions.
