Noted.

Among other matters, please state whether the High Court of the Republic of Singapore is aware that the obligors will rely on the Section 3(a)(10) exemption based on that court’s approval of the transaction. |
Noted. This will be addressed in amendment #1 to the Form T-3.
4. | Please revise your reference to “among other things” in the second paragraph under this heading to make clear what else may be considered by the court. Make clear, for example, whether the court will consider statements of your creditors or allow your creditors to appear. |

Item 4. Directors and executive officers, page 5
5. | Please revise your disclosure or confirm that “Saleh” is the full name of the Director of Finance for PT Central Proteinaprima and Commissioner for P.T. Centralpertiwi Bahari. |
We confirm that “Saleh” is the full and legal name of the Director of Finance for PT Central Proteinaprima Tbk. and Commissioner for PT Centralpertiwi Bahari.
Item 5. Principal owners of voting securities, page 8
6. | Please identify the natural person or persons that exercise sole and/or shared voting and dispositive powers over the securities owned by each of the entities listed under this item. |
Noted. This will be addressed in amendment #1 to the Form T-3.
Item 8. Analysis of Indenture provisions, page 11
7. | We note the bracketed language in the indenture indicating that you might obtain a Chapter 15 order granting recognition of the Singapore proceeding. Please confirm that the entry of an order under the Bankruptcy Code would not trigger the default provisions of the indenture. |
We confirm that the entry of any order under Chapter 15 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court pursuant to which the Singapore scheme of arrangement is recognized in the U.S. will not breach the terms of the amended and restated indenture. This is because if we seek to obtain a Chapter 15 order granting recognition of the Singapore scheme of arrangement, the amended and restated indenture will not be signed until after the Chapter 15 order is granted. It is possible that the entry of any such order could breach the terms of the existing indenture. However: (i) the existing notes are already in default and due and payable; and (ii) under the terms of the Singapore scheme of arrangement, each holder of the existing notes and the trustee will have consented to the issuer proceeding with the Chapter 15 application.
