None whatever, as long as you have completed the regression testing with your application.
You did do that, didn't you? Or were you planning the production upgrade without testing?
Please let us know. And if you did the regression testing, well done! How did you manage to persuade the business to pay for it? Up until now our warnings about desupport have had nil effect.
