The Company acknowledges that the disclosure in the Registration Statement is
its responsibility. The Company further acknowledges that:

Registration Statement effective, it does not foreclose the
Commission from taking any action with respect to the Registration

o the action of the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to
delegated authority, in declaring the Registration Statement
effective, does not relieve the Company from its full responsibility
for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the Registration
Statement; and
o the Company may not assert staff comments and the declaration of
effectiveness as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the
Commission or any person under federal securities laws of the United
States.
Very truly yours,
