“We have been heavily dependent on sales of four key products” page 8

10.
We also note your statement “We cannot assure that we will get the approvals and the loss of Certificates of Protected Variety of Traditional Chinese Medicine will a material adverse effect on our revenues.” This sentence appears to be missing some text.  If you have concluded that the loss of protection will have material adverse effect on your revenues, please make this clear. If, on the other hand, the loss of protection may have a material adverse effect, but this is uncertain, please revise accordingly.

The Company has revised the referenced risk factor to address the Staff’s comment.

“Our business and growth will suffer if we are unable to hire and retain …” page 10

13.
To the extent that you have experienced any difficulties to date managing growth, including retaining a sufficient number of skilled personnel, please expand this risk factor to describe these challenges. If any of your key personnel intend to retire or resign in the near future, please revise to address such departure and the potential impact on your organization.

The Staff is advised that the Company has experienced relatively few employee departures in the past five years and that, to the Company’s currently knowledge, no key personnel intend to retire or resign in the near future.  However, the Company submits that this risk factor is nonetheless relevant to the Company’s business to the extent it addresses the Company’s “future” prospects and therefore believes it is appropriate that the risk factor remain.

“Our research and development may be costly and/or untimely ...” page 10

14.
Please disclose the material terms of your contract with Yantai Tianzheng Medicine Research and Development Co., Ltd. in the Business section and file the contract as an exhibit to your S-1.

Business, page 40

Our Business, page 40

25.
We note your statement that the previously issued Certificate of Protection for Tongbi Capsules and Shangtongning Capsules “give us exclusive or near-exclusive rights to manufacture and distribute these two medicines.” This statement is contradicted by the disclosure that follows, which indicates that the certificate has expired.  To avoid any confusion, please revise your description to rectify this discrepancy.  In addition, please discuss whether any competitors are currently seeking to manufacture similar products.

In response to the Staff’s comment, the Company has revised its risk factor disclosure on page 13 to include disclosure that the Company is not planning to extend the Certificate of Protection issued by the State Food and Drug Administration of China for Shangtongning Tablets, which expired in September 2009.  The Company has further added a risk factor on page 13 discussing the risk that other manufactures shall have right to produce similar products upon the expiration of Certificate of Protection.  Similar disclosures have been added at page 42 in the Business section.

Please file the loan agreements referenced in this section.

The Company respectfully submits that the filing of these documents is not necessary.  The guaranty provided by Mr. Qu is for a relatively small loan made by the Company in the ordinary course of its business and is therefore not required to be filed under either Item 404 or Item 601 of Regulation S-K.  The loan from the Company to Mr. Qu has been repaid and is therefore not presently material.

Consolidated Financial Statements for the Interim Period Ending December 31. 2009

Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, page F-4

34.
Please tell us what the “Proceeds of note payable” and “Contributed capital” line items represents and why you believe it is appropriate to classify them as investing activities and not financing activities.  Refer to FASB ASC 230-10-45.

The Company agrees with the Staff’s comments that the nature of proceeds of notes payable and contributed capital are proceeds of notes and equity instrument which shall be classified as “cash inflow from financing activities” according to FASB ASC 230-10-45.

The Staff is advised that the $400,000 proceeds of note payable refers to a short term bridge loan from certain investors (the “Bridge Investors”) to the Company in June 2009 to defray professional fees and due diligence costs associated with the Company’s search for suitable business opportunities, including a potential merger, as disclosed on page 69 of the Registration Statement.  These $400,000 bridge loans were converted into 200,000 shares of Company common stock upon the closing of the Company’s share exchange transaction on January 5, 2010.

The Staff is further advised that the $5,970 of contributed capital refers to an equity transaction between Link Resources, Inc. and its shareholder during the period from September to November 2009 regarding to increasing of addition paid- in capital.

As a result, in response to the Staff’s comments, the Company has revised its cash flow statement to correctly state that the proceeds of notes payable and contributed capital shall be classified as financing activities and not investing activities.

Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, page F-25

36.
Please tell us why you believe it is appropriate to classify the proceeds from sales of common stock as an investing activity and not a financing activity.

In response to the Staff’s comment, the Company has revised its statements of cash flow to reclassify “the proceeds from sales of common stock” as financing activities in accordance with FASB ASC 230-10-45-14.

Note 1.  Organization and Principal Activities, page F-26

37.
Please clarify whether the financial statements include the financial results of Link Resources Inc. prior to the date of the Share Exchange Agreement.  It appears that the financial statements presented are those of Chance High International Limited and not those of Bohai Pharmaceuticals Group Inc. given that the Share Exchange Agreement has not yet been completed as of the date of the financial statements presented.  If this is the case, please revise the heading of the financial statements accordingly.  This applies for the interim financial statements as well.

The Staff is advised that the Company inadvertently omitted the word “PRO-FORMA” from its financial statements included in the Registration Statement and has revised the financial statements to be characterized as “PRO-FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS” which are presented on an “as-if” basis (i.e., that the consolidation occurred at the beginning of reporting period).  As such, the financial results of Link Resources, Inc. prior to the date of Share Exchange Agreement entered on January 5, 2010 are consolidated with the financial result of both Chance High International Limited and its consolidated subsidiaries on the same basis for presentation purposes only.

Note 3.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(a) Basis of Presentation and consolidation, page F-21

38.
Please expand your disclosure to clarify how the Contractual Arrangements obligates the Company to absorb all of the risk of loss from Bohai’s activities and enables the Company to receive all of Bohai’s expected residual returns.  Also, it is not clear from the disclosure your basis for concluding that Bohai is a variable interest entity.  Please provide us with your accounting analysis supporting this conclusion including addressing the conditions in FAS ASC 810-10-15-14.  Expand your disclosure accordingly.  Include disclosure in the interim financial statements as well.

The Staff is referred to the Company’s structure chart on page 3 of the Registration Statement and the VIE Agreements filed by the Company as exhibits to its Current Report on Form 8-K, dated January 11, 2010.  The Operating Agreement between Yantai Shencaojishi Pharmaceuticals Co., Limited (“WFOE”), which is controlled by the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, allows the WFOE to the make decisions on and to exercise all voting rights with respect  to Bohai’s operating activities.  In addition, under Consultant Service Agreement entered into between WFOE and Bohai, Bohai agreed to pay all of its net income to WOFE quarterly as a consultant fee.  Accordingly, WFOE has the right to receive the expected residual returns of Bohai which qualified one of recognition criteria of VIE relationship under FASB ASC 810-10-15-14 and FIN 46R.  Because of the direct chain of ownership between the Company and WFOE, the Company qualifies as the primary beneficiary such the controlling financial interest of Bohai.

 
 

 

Mr. Jeffrey Riedler
April 30, 2010
Page 10 of 12

39.
It appears that you have consolidated Bohai Pharmaceuticals for periods prior to December 7, 2009 the effective date for the contractual agreements with Yantai Shencaojishi Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. Because “the companies are under common contro1.”  Also, you disclose “the consolidated financial statements have been prepared as if the transaction had occurred retroactively as to the beginning of the reporting period of these consolidated financial statements.”  In addition, based on your disclosure it appears that Yantai Shencaojishi Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. did not exist prior to November 25, 2009.  Please provide us with an expanded explanation of your basis for this retroactive accounting treatment, as well as reference to the relevant technical literature upon which you relied in reaching these conclusions.  Expand your disclosure accordingly, including disclosure in the interim financial statements.

Please see the Company’s response to comment 37.  The Company inadvertently omitted the word “PRO-FORMA” in the financial statements.  The financial statements have been prepared bon an “as-if” basis.  Therefore, all the financial statement presentation here for year ended June 30, 2009 and period ended December 31, 2009 are all prepared on a pro-forma basis.

40.
Further based on your disclosure, it appears that the basis for Chance High International Limited consolidating the Bohai Pharmaceuticals Group. Inc. is FIN 46R.  It is not clear from your disclosure how you accounted for the initial measurement of the assets and liabilities of Bohai.  Please explain how your accounting complies with FASB ASC 810-10-30.

Please see the Company’s prior responses.  The financial statements have been prepared on a pro-forma basis. The application of initial measurement of the VIE Agreements under FASB ASC 810-10-30(4) should be from January 5, 2010, the effective date of the Company’s share exchange transaction, instead of via a retroactive application of FASB ASC 810-10-30(4).  Therefore, FASB ASC 810-10-30(4) is not applicable for preparation of the financial statements up to periods ended June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2009.

Note 3.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(1) Revenue Recognition, page F-30

41.
Please disclose your return policy for your products and the amount of your reserve for returns.

The Company’s return policy of goods and services is recognized in actual basis when the goods sold are returned by customers and the closing balance of revenue is actually deducted by the relevant cost of sales.  The Company’s sales rate is very low and management believes that the return amount is immaterial and therefore no such provision should be stated.

Note 6.  Intangible Assets, page F-35

42.
You note on page 8 of your filing that you have a trademark for “Xian Ge” and on page 52 that you have land use rights which expire 2047.  Please tell us and disclose if you recognized an intangible asset for these rights.  In addition, it does not appear that you have legal protection rights for your pharmaceutical formulas.  Please tell us how you determined they met the definition of an asset under FAS Con 6, particularly how you can obtain the benefit and control others’ access to it.  Also, please provide us your analysis under FAS ASC 350-30-35-3 regarding how you determined that the useful life of the pharmaceutical formulas is indefinite.

The Staff is advised that the cost of the trademark for “Xian Ge” (which is less than USD1,500 annually) is immaterial.  Therefore, such cost are recognized as the operating expense instead of capitalized as intangible assets.

 
 

 

Mr. Jeffrey Riedler
April 30, 2010
Page 11 of 12

The Company’s land use rights, which expire on 2047, have been recognized under “leasehold land and building” under property, plant and equipment in note 6 of the financial statements and are taken as part and parcel of the existing building together when the Company’s buildings thereon.  The Company has therefore taken the position that the land and building co-exist together, and therefore it is depreciated according to the estimated useful life of the building,, which is 40 years.

We had carried out the testing procedures in attesting the cash flow forecast for each pharmaceutical formula as estimated by the Company with the industrial-scale production of various products based on these pharmaceutical formulas could generate positive net cash inflow. Therefore, the assertion on ‘future economic benefit’ do exist for such formula

The useful life for the Company’s pharmaceutical formulas is indefinite in accordance with FAS ASC 350-30-35-3(a).  As the Company expected that the useful life of such formula is indefinite, the Company still has the rights for pharmaceutical operation unless there is evidence showing that such there is risk of reverting those right pending for extension of registration as imposed by PRC government.

Note 12. Income Tax, page F-38

43.
Please revise your disclosure to include the income tax reconciliation from the U.S. statutory rates to the Company’s effective tax rate for the period presented.  In addition, please disclose the percentage of the VAT applied to product sales and the total amount of VAT for the periods presented.

The revised notes of income tax expense to the financial statement including the income tax reconciliation from the U.S. Statutory rate to the Company's effective tax rate for the period present are now disclosed in the financial statements included as part of Amendment No. 1 in accordance the FAS ASC 740-10-50.
 
The percentage of the VAT applied to product sale and the total amount of VAT for the period presented are now disclosed in the revised note of income tax to the financial statements as of June 30, 2009.
 
Item 16. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules

(a) Exhibits

44.
Please file the Placement Agent Agreement.

The Staff is advised that the Company and its placement agents did not utilize a Placement Agent Agreement.  Rather, the investors in the offering that closed January 5, 2010 entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement directly with the Company.

We thank the Staff in advance for its consideration of Amendment No. 1.  If the Staff has any questions or would like additional information, please contact the undersigned or my partner Barry I. Grossman at (212) 370-1300.  We look forward to working with you to resolve any remaining questions the Staff may have.
