Your response to prior comment 1 indicates that you will remove the non-GAAP combined presentation that adjusts to exclude the impact of fresh start accounting; however, your response also indicates that in future filings you intend to provide the combined amounts without any adjustments as Non-GAAP combined . A presentation that merely combines the predecessor and successor periods would not be appropriate given that the predecessor and successor periods are not comparable. Please confirm that you will not present combined results in future filings and that your MD&A discussion will be limited to a discussion of historical results that separately compares the historical results of the respective successor and predecessor periods.
