Registration statement on Form S-1
File No. 333-171488
Dear Gentlemen:
We respond herewith to your comment letter covering our Registration Statement on Form S-1, filed December 30, 2010. We appreciate your consideration and assistance in this endeavor. We include herewith an amendment to our Registration Statement on Form S-1 incorporating the changes as requested. To assist the staff of the Commission in completing its review of the above referenced filing, the comments from your letter dated January 26, 2011, are quoted below and are followed in each case by the Company’s response thereto.
Prospectus Cover Page
Comment No. 1
We note that you refer, both on the cover page and elsewhere in the prospectus, to “selling security holders” and “the selling security holder.” Please revise to clarify that there are multiple holders whose shares are being registered for resale.
Response
We have made the changes requested throughout the document to indicate that there are multiple selling security holders.
Comment No. 2
You indicate that your common stock is not currently listed or quoted on any exchange or market. However, on page 10, under Selling Security Holder, you seem to suggest that you will be applying in the near future to have your shares quoted on the OTCBB, the Pink Sheets, or some other market. Please revise to clarify your intentions in this regard, on the cover page and throughout the filing, as appropriate.
Response
We have modified the language as requested. Please see pages 3, 12, 13, 16, and 32.
Comment No. 3
The registration of 100% of the outstanding shares “at the market” appears to be inconsistent with Rule 415(a)(4) of Regulation C, which restricts the registration of an “at-the-market” offering to offerings into an existing trading market for outstanding shares of the same class” as well as to offerings that are not by or on behalf of the registrant. Please revise to price the offering or provide the staff with an analysis and authority for such resale registration “ at the market.”
Response
The offering has been modified to reduce the number of shares being registered and to place a price on the sale of the shares. Please see pages 2, 3, 6, and 14-16.
Prospectus Summary, page 4
Comment No. 4
Disclose that the company’s assets and liabilities, accumulated deficit, and net loss for the last two fiscal years. Disclose also that the company is dependent on revenue from one or more future securities offerings in order to be able to continue its operations and attain profitability. Discuss the expected timing of any such offerings.
Response
The disclosures have been added as requested. Please see page 6.
Comment No. 5
In view of the other activities that the officers and directors appear to be involved in according to the “Business Experience” disclosure on page 21, disclose here and in risk factor, if appropriate, the other business interests of your officers, and the percentage of their business time that the officers expect to devote to the company.
Response
The additional disclosure has been added to page 6 and to “Risk Factors” on page 10.
Risk Factors, page 6
Comment 6
Some of your risk factors make statements that “there can be no assurance” or use similar language regarding assurances or guarantees that a given event might happen or your ability to predict whether a given event might happen. Please revise this section to eliminate this type of language. The point of a particular risk factor is to discuss a material risk and explain the likelihood of the risk impacting an investment in your securities, not your ability to provide assurances or guarantees or make predictions.
Response
The language has been modified. Please see Risk Factors, beginning on page 8.
Comment No. 7
Please disclose the risk that this secondary offering may reduce demand for the company’s common shares and thereby increase the difficulty of selling equity capital in the future.
Response
The additional risks have been added to Risk Factors on pages 11 and 12.
Our inability to attract and maintain key personnel . . . ,page 7
Comment No. 8
Please revise to quantify, for example, how many additional personnel you expect to need in what time frame, and what type of personnel.
Response
The additional disclosure has been added to page 10.
Selling Security Holder, page 10
Comment No. 9
Revise to disclose that none of the selling stockholders is a broker/dealer or an affiliate of any broker/dealer. Otherwise, disclose which selling stockholders fall under such categories.
Response
We have revised the second paragraph on page 14 to disclose that, to the best of our knowledge, none of selling security holders are broker/dealer or an affiliate of any broker/dealer.
Description of Business
History, page 14
Comment No. 10
Please disclose Charta’s business reasons for the merger with City Media.
Response
We have included a third paragraph under “Description of Business; History” on page 18 to disclose Charta’s business reasons for the merger with City Media.
Distribution and Marketing Plan, page 16
Comment No. 11
This section seems to indicate that you are not targeting high traffic commercial or retail locations. This is inconsistent with your disclosure elsewhere, including above under Target Demographics / Customers. Please reconcile your disclosure throughout the prospectus.
Response
The disclosure has been revised. Please see page 19.
Directors, Executive Officers, Promoters and Control Persons, page 21
Comment No. 12
Please revise the description of Mr. Howells’ business experience, to clarify what kind of business Jenson Services is, how large an enterprise it is, and the nature of Mr. Howells’ work as an employee there, at least during the last five years. Also, briefly identify the other businesses mentioned. Do the same for Messrs. Trimble and Jenson.
Response
Mr. Howells’ business experience has been modified, as requested, with further disclosure regarding Jenson Services and the other businesses mentioned on page 25. The same has also been done for Messrs. Trimble and Jenson.
Plan of Distribution, page
