Pursuant to Rule 461 under the Securities Act of 1933, we now respectfully request that the qualification date of the offering statement be accelerated and that the offering statement be declared qualified November 24, 2015, or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable.
We acknowledge the following:

| • | the action of the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, declare the filing qualified, it does not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing; |
| • | the Company may not assert this action as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States. |
| Very truly yours, | ||
