Re: SpatiaLight, Inc. (the "Company"), Post Effective Amendments No. 3
to Registration Statements on Form S-3 filed December 29, 2005 (File
No. 333-122391, the "Financing Registration Statement") (File No.
333-122392, the "Shelf Registration Statement")
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We submit this letter to the Staff of the Division of Corporation Finance of the
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") with respect to the
Company's Post-Effective Amendments No. 3, dated December 29, 2005 to the
Financing Registration Statement and the Shelf Registration Statement
(collectively, the "Post-Effective Amendments").
We bring to the Staff's attention two inadvertent errors that occurred with
respect to the Post-Effective Amendments:
1. We omitted three sentences that should have appeared at the end of the "Risk
Factor" with the heading, "We are the subject of an informal inquiry by the
staff of the SEC..." That risk factor should have read in its entirety
(inadvertently omitted text in ALL CAPS):
We are the Subject of an Informal Inquiry by the Staff of the SEC
Regarding the Circumstances Surrounding Our Filing of Certain Consents
of the Independent Registered Accounting Firm BDO Seidman, LLP Without
Requisite Authorization.
We have been advised by the staff of the SEC that it is conducting an
informal inquiry into the circumstances surrounding our filing of
consents of the independent registered accounting firm BDO Seidman,
LLP, without requisite authorization, which consents were filed as
Exhibit 23.1 to amendments to our registration statements on Form S-3
(Nos. 333-122391 and 333-122392) filed with the SEC on July 27, 2005.
The consents would have allowed us to incorporate by reference in each
of the prospectuses constituting a part of the above-referenced
registration statements our consolidated financial statements for the
years ended December 31, 2002 and 2003. Our current independent
registered accounting firm, Odenberg, Ullakko, Muranishi & Co. LLP
(OUM) has since provided us with a new report with respect to each of
the three years ended December 31, 2004 and we were not requested to
amend or restate the financial statements contained in our annual
reports on Form 10-K for any of the three fiscal years ended December
31, 2004 in connection with the issuance of OUM's new report. We have
been cooperating with the SEC in connection with this matter. IN
ADDITION, THE AUDIT COMMITTEE OF OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS ALSO
UNDERTAKEN A REVIEW AND INVESTIGATION OF THESE MATTERS. AS OF THIS
DATE, WE CANNOT DETERMINE WHETHER WE OR OUR MANAGEMENT WILL BE
ADVERSELY AFFECTED BY THIS INQUIRY. SEE "ABOUT SPATIALIGHT -- CERTAIN
DEVELOPMENTS" FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONCERNING THE FACTUAL
CIRCUMSTANCES UNDERLYING THE INQUIRY AND THE AUDIT COMMITTEE
INVESTIGATION AND REPORT WITH RESPECT TO THIS MATTER.
2. The Part II, Item 17. Undertakings do not include the new undertakings
required by Item 512 of Regulation S-K as of December 1, 2005.
Subject to responding to any further comments which the Staff may have with
respect to the Post-Effective Amendments as filed, we propose to file the final
post-effective amendments correcting the inadvertent errors referred to herein
and as are acceptable to the Staff at the time we request acceleration of
effectiveness of such post-effective amendments.
We respectfully request that the Staff contact us as soon as practicable with
respect to the matters referred to herein.
The management of the Company appreciates the continuing cooperation and
courtesy of the Staff with respect to these matters.
Sincerely,
/S/ Robert A. Olins
Robert A. Olins
