Re: Emerald Medical Applications Corp.
Amendment No. 2
to Registration Statement on Form S-1
Filed December 2, 2015
File No.
333-206105
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We are submitting this letter in
response to the staff's comment letter dated December 21, 2015 addressed to
Emerald Medical Applications Corp. (the "Registrant"). For the convenience of
the staff, we have included each staff comment, numbered sequentially, followed
by our response, also numbered sequentially.
General
Comment 1. We note
your response to comment 1 that none of the shares currently registered were
issued while you were a shell company. However, your disclosure under Item 15
appears to indicate that some of the selling shareholders received the shares
being registered prior to July 14, 2015, when you ceased being a shell company,
as stated in your response letter dated October 2, 2015. Please clarify and tell
us whether any of the shares being registered were issued in a transaction
specified in Rule 145(a) of the Securities Act of 1933. Please refer to SEC
Release 33-8869 (2007).
Response 1. We have revised the disclosure
throughout the registration statement related to the date that the Registrant
ceased to be a shell company the date(s) of issuance of the shares of common
stock, including shares underlying the Class B Warrants, being registered in
Amendment No. 3 to the S-1. The revised disclosure is contained under the
following captions:
(i) Prospectus Summary: In the new 4th paragraph under
Prospectus Summary, we have included disclosure of the loans made by the
Registrant to Emerald Medical Applications Ltd from early February through June
2015, which was both prior and subsequent to the execution of the Share Exchange
Agreement on March 16, 2015. We have also disclosed that the Registrant's CFO
was appointed as CFO of Emerald Medical Applications Ltd in February 2015. As a
result, we have disclosed that by the end of May 2015, the Registrant was in
effective control over the business and financial operations and decisions of
Emerald and ceased to be a shell company by that time;
(ii) Selling Security
Holders: We have disclosed that virtually all of the shares being registered,
including shares underlying the Class B Warrants, were issued during the period
from June through September, 2015, after the Registrant ceased to be a shell
company. We have added a column to the "Selling Security Holders" table to
include the dates of issuance of all shares being registered. Cross reference is
also made to the table under "Market for Common Equity and Related Stockholder
Matters" and the sub-caption "Sale of Unregistered Securities" which also
contain the additional column "Dates of Issuance." The staff should note that
the 173,500 shares previously being offered by SASN Ideas Ltd, as a selling
shareholder, have been removed because these shares were issued on or about
March 17, 2015, at which date the Registrant may have still been deemed to be a
shell company. Please note that the removal of the SASN shares has been
reflected throughout the prospectus.
(iii) Item 15. Recent Sales of
Unregistered Securities: We have made similar disclosure revisions under Part
II, Item 15, in the paragraph immediately preceding the 2nd table under this
section as well as in the subject table.
Finally, none of the shares
being registered were issued in transactions under Rule 145(a).
Comment
2. On page 22 you indicate that Oded Gilboa is your former CFO, but elsewhere in
your filing, including the signature page, Mr. Gilboa is named as your current
CFO. Please revise to ensure consistency throughout your filing.
Response
2. We have conformed the disclosure by the deletion of the word "former" when
referring to Mr. Gilboa, who continues to serve as our CFO.

Comment 3. Please update this section to include the
information in your Current Report on Form 8-K filed December 8, 2015. Please
refer to Item 103 of Regulation S-K. Also, make similar revisions to the section
titled "Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities."
Response 3. We have
included updated disclosure under "Legal Proceedings" regarding the settlement
and the fact that the settlement was reported in the Registrant's Form 8-K filed
on December 8, 2015. We have also added the Item 3.02 from disclosure from the
same 8-K under the subcaption "Sale of Unregistered Securities" in response to
the second sentence of comment 3.
Exhibit 5
Comment 4. Please have
counsel revise the legality opinion, stating, if true, that the shares
underlying the Class B Warrants, when issued, will be validly issued, fully
paid, and non-assessable. See Staff Legal Bulletin No. 19 (CF), Section
II.B.1.f, which is available on our website.
Response 4. Counsel's legal
opinion has been revised pursuant to this comment.
Respectfully
submitted,
