Concurrently with the filing of the Registration Statement, the Company is hereby in this letter setting forth the Company’s responses to the comments contained in the letter from the staff of the Commission (the “Staff”) dated October 28, 2024 on the Company’s Registration Statement filed on October 25, 2024.

Amendment No. 8 to Registration Statement on Form F-1, Filed October 25, 2024

 

Exhibits

 

  1. We note counsel’s opinion that the statements under the caption “Material Tax Considerations” in the prospectus forming part of the Registration Statement, to the extent that they constitute statements of Cayman Islands law, are accurate in all material respects. This statement fails to identify the specific tax issue on which counsel is opining. Please have counsel revise to opine on the tax consequences of the offering, not the manner in which they are described in the prospectus. Refer to Section III.C.2. of Staff Legal Bulletin No. 19 (CF) located at our web-site.

 

In response to the Staff’s comment, counsel’s opinion letter in Exhibit 5.1 has been revised accordingly.

 

If you have any questions regarding the Registration Statement, please contact the undersigned by phone at +852.3551.8688 or via email at louise.liu@morganlewis.com.

 

  Very truly yours
