The Company further acknowledges that the Company may not assert the declaration of effectiveness as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws.
Please confirm the date and time of effectiveness of the Registration Statement to our counsel, Hillel Tendler, at 410-332-8552, fax 410-951-6038, or e-mail at ht@nqgrg.com
