3. | We refer you to the immediately preceding comment.

Please confirm that your offer will be open at least through midnight. | ||

7. | We note that you may determine in your “sole discretion” whether certain offer conditions have occurred or are satisfied. Please revise to include an objective standard for the determination of whether a condition has been satisfied. | ||
The Company has revised the Registration Statement so that whether certain offer conditions have occurred or are satisfied is determined not in the Company’s “sole discretion” but rather in its “reasonable judgment.” | |||
8. | An exchange offer may only be subject to conditions that are not within the direct or indirect control of the bidder and are drafted with sufficient specificity to allow for objective verification that the conditions have been satisfied.

The Company has revised the Registration Statement to remove references to “threatened” actions. |
