Exhibits

 

1. We note that the form of warrant agreement filed as Exhibit 4.4 provides that the Company agrees that any action, proceeding or claim against it arising out of or relating in any way to the agreement shall be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. Please revise your registration statement to describe this provision, including any risks or other impacts of the provision on investors and any uncertainty about the enforceability of the provision. In addition, please clearly disclose whether the provision applies to actions arising under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act. If the provision applies to Securities Act claims, please also state that investors cannot waive compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. In that regard, we note that Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. If the provision does not apply to actions arising under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, please ensure that the exclusive forum provision in the warrant agreement states this clearly. 

 

Response: The disclosure on pages 29 and 81 of Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement and pertinent section of the warrant agreement filed as exhibit 4.4 have been revised in accordance with the Staff’s comment.
