The Staff’s comments are repeated below in bold and are followed by the Company’s responses. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings set forth in the Registration Statement.
Concurrently with the submission of this letter, the Company is submitting herewith an amendment to the Registration Statement (the “Amendment No. 1”) and certain exhibits to the Registration Statement via EDGAR to the Commission for the Staff’s review pursuant to the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012. In the Amendment No. 1, the Company has updated the Registration Statement and included, among others, the estimated price range of the securities to be offered, the offering size, and additional disclosures in relation to the Company’s recent developments.
To facilitate the Staff’s review, we have separately delivered to the Staff five courtesy copies of the Amendment No. 1, marked to show changes to the Registration Statement.
The Company plans to commence the marketing activities in connection with the offering on October 16, 2019. The Company plans to request that the Staff declare the effectiveness of the Registration Statement on or about October 24, 2019, and will file the joint acceleration requests in time before the requested effective time. The Company would greatly appreciate the Staff’s continuing assistance and support in meeting its timetable.
