price be less than $4 per share. We also understand that at the request of Mr. Dong your board of directors approved the issuance of 2,941,176 shares of common stock at a price of $4 per share on November 22, 2011 to settle the obligation because you were unable to launch your initial public offering as originally contemplated. Please explain to us in detail why you believe the monetary value of the obligation was based solely or predominately on a fixed monetary amount known at inception. Please refer to guidance in ASC 480 -10-55-1 through 2, ASC 480 -10-55-22 and ASC 480 -10-55-46 through 51. In your response , please:

 provide us with your analysis at inception of all possible outcomes you considered in your evaluation of which component is predominate;

 tell us the facts and circumstances that support your conclusion that settlement of the equity contract based on the initial public offering price was more likely than a settlement at the minimum issuance price considering your stock price on the date of the agreement, expected volatility of the price of your common stock and other pertinent factors ; and

 explain to us why settlement of the obligation in accordance with terms of the agreement would result in the recognition of a substantial gain if the monetary value of the obligation is based solely or predominately on a fixed monetary amount known at inception.

If you conclude that the monetary value of the equity contract was not based solely or predominately on a fixed monetary amount known at inception, the contract would not be within the scope of paragraph ASC 480-10-25-14 and would need to be evaluated under ASC 815-40. In that event, please provide us with an evaluation of the equity contract based on the guidance in ASC 815 -40-15 and ASC 815 -40-25.
