Note 7 – Litigation, page 13

 

  1. We note in your responses to prior comments 5 and 6 that you are unable to estimate a range of reasonably possible losses. However, the disclosure included on pages 14 and 16 indicates that you cannot provide assurance of the range of potential losses. Please revise your disclosure in future filings to clearly indicate that you cannot estimate a range of reasonably possible losses.

In future filings, the Company will clearly indicate that it cannot estimate a range of reasonably possible losses.

*  *  *  *

The Company hereby acknowledges that: (i) the Company is responsible for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filings; (ii) Staff comments or changes to disclosure in response to Staff comments do not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filings; and (iii) the Company may not assert Staff comments as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States.
