• | the Company may not assert the declaration of effectiveness as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States. |
If you have any questions regarding this request for acceleration of effectiveness, please contact Louis Lehot or Jason Schendel, each of Sheppard, Mullin, Richter & Hampton LLP, at (650) 815-2640 or (650) 815-2621, respectively.
