Response: The Company respectfully advises the Staff that, on the date hereof, the Company has filed with the Commission (i) Post-Effective Amendment No. 4 to the Registration Statement on Form F-1 on Form F-3 (File No. 333-262940) (“Post-Effective Amendment No. 4”) to revise the disclosure to relate to the 8,034,500 Ordinary Shares and 37,000 Parent Warrants originally registered pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form F-1 declared effective on March 11, 2022 (File No. 333-262940), and (ii) a separate Registration Statement on Form F-3 relating to 38,606,500 Ordinary Shares and 148,000 Parent Warrants.

 

 

 

 

The Company is sending, under separate cover, a marked copy of Post-Effective Amendment No. 3 against Post-Effective Amendment No. 4.

 

Capitalized terms used but not defined within this letter have the meanings ascribed to them in Post-Effective Amendment No. 4.
