The Company has determined not to pursue the registration and sale of the securities covered by the Registration Statement. The Company believes this withdrawal request is consistent with the public interest and protection of investors as required by Rule 477(a).

The Company understands that, pursuant to Rule 477(b) of the Securities Act, this application for withdrawal will be deemed granted at the time filed with the Commission unless, within 15 calendar days after the filing, the Commission notifies the Company that the application for withdrawal has not been granted.
