As corporate secretary of the Company and on behalf of the Company I advise you that the Company acknowledges that:

• The Company may not assert staff comments as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States.
Yours very truly,
/s/ Frank Hariton
