| Amendment No. 2 to Registration Statement on Form S-1 |
Dear Mr. Lopez:
We have filed an amended registration statement.
1. We have added a section entitled “Related Party Transactions,” which sets forth information about transactions with funds that David Taft, a director, manages.
2. We have added Language on the cover page of the registration statement and on the cover page and in the summary and “the offering” of the prospectus indicating that given the Company’s financial situation, it is likely that for the foreseeable future, the Company will pay interest in the form of notes..
Very truly yours,
