We hereby request the acceleration of the effectiveness of the above referenced Form T-3 as amended by each amendment thereto so that it may become effective at or prior to 5 p.m. (EDT) on October 29, 2021 or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter.

In connection with the filing of the Form T-3, the Applicants acknowledge the following:

 

   

should the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, declare the filing effective, it does not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing;

 

   

the action of the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, in declaring the filing effective, does not relieve the Applicants from their full responsibility for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing; and


   

the Applicants may not assert staff comments and the declaration of effectiveness as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States.

Please call Heather Emmel at (212) 310-8849 of Wei!, Gotshal & Manges LLP to confirm the effectiveness of the Form T-3.
