The
Company acknowledges that the adequacy and accuracy of the
disclosure in the Registration Statement is the responsibility of
the Company. The Company further acknowledges that:

the
action of the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated

not relieve the Company from its full responsibility for the

|
-
|
the
Company may not assert staff comments and the declaration of
effectiveness as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the

Upon
grant of our request to accelerate effectiveness, we would
appreciate your communicating with the Company’s counsel,
