UNDERTAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY TO REGISTER THESE TRANSACTIONS IN STATES
BEYOND YOUR INITIAL FILING. HOWEVER, AS THERE WILL BE A SECONDARY TRADING
MARKET IN THESE WARRANTS, IT IS CONCEIVABLE THAT WARRANT HOLDERS MAY BE IN
STATES WHERE A REGISTRATION STATEMENT WILL NOT BE IN EFFECT -- AND

COMPARISON TO OFFERINGS OF BLANK CHECK COMPANIES
- ------------------------------------------------
24. IN THE TABLE, PLEASE INCLUDE A DISCUSSION THAT COMPARES THE TERMS OF THE
OFFERING WITH THE TERMS UNDER RULE 419 WITH RESPECT TO THE SHAREHOLDERS'

419(B)(2)(III) PROVIDES THAT, "DEPOSITED PROCEEDS AND INTEREST OR DIVIDENDS
THEREON, IF ANY, SHALL BE HELD FOR THE SOLE BENEFIT OF THE PURCHASERS OF
THE SECURITIES." IT APPEARS THAT THE SHAREHOLDERS' RIGHT TO THE INTEREST
INCOME FROM THE TRUST IS A SEPARATE ISSUE FROM "RELEASE OF FUNDS." PLEASE
REVISE ACCORDINGLY. IN ADDITION, THE COMPANY MAY WANT TO CONSIDER ADDING A
RISK FACTOR REGARDING THE STOCKHOLDERS' LIMITED RIGHT TO RECEIVE INTEREST
EARNED FROM THE FUNDS HELD IN TRUST IN COMPARISON TO THE REQUIREMENTS UNDER
RULE 419.

Prospectus.

THIS COMPLIES WITH RULE 10B5-1.
