Preliminary Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A
 
General
 
1. 
We note that you may not be able to continue to meet the listing standards of Nasdaq. Please disclose the effects of being delisted from Nasdaq on shareholders who elect not to redeem including, for example, on the stock price and liquidity. Please also clearly disclose which Nasdaq requirements would continue to apply to your company in the event you are delisted, such as the requirement that the initial business combination be with a company that had an aggregate fair market value of 80% of the assets held in the trust account. Lastly, disclose the risk that redemptions in connection with this shareholder vote would further reduce the amount held in the trust and the impact that would have upon your ability to find a business combination.
 
We have revised the disclosure of the Preliminary Proxy Statement on pages 4, 7 and 14 as requested.

Sincerely,
