requested information. If you do not believe a comment applies to your facts and circumstances

Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed September 19, 2023
Cover page
1.Please revise the prospectus cover page and the summary to set a fixed price at which the
selling shareholders will offer and sell their shares for the duration of the offering. Refer
to Item 501(b)(3) of Regulation S-K. In this regard, we note your disclosure on page 41
that "Selling Stockholders may offer and sell the common stock registered pursuant to this
prospectus at a fixed price of $0.79." Please make the appropriate revisions throughout
the prospectus for consistency.
2.We note your statement on page 41 under the Plan of Distribution that “Selling
Stockholders and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents that participate in the sale of
the securities or interests therein may be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section
2(11) of the Securities Act," and that "[t]he Selling Stockholders also may resell all or a
portion of the securities in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the

Securities Act of 1933." We also note that you were previously a shell company. Rule 144
is generally not available for the resale of securities initially issued by a shell company
(reporting or non-reporting) or a former shell company. As Rule 144 does not appear to be
available to you, each of the selling stockholders is considered an underwriter. Please
revise your disclosure here, and in your Plan of Distribution, to state that
the selling stockholders "are" underwriters within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the
Securities Act. To the extent that any broker-dealer or agent is involved in selling the
securities, indicate that each will be an underwriter within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11)
of the Securities Act. In addition, please remove the statement on page 41 that the Selling
Stockholders may resell all or a portion of the securities in open market transactions in
reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933.
3.Please identify by name the selling security holder who, with Mr. Rouf, beneficially owns
approximately 55% of your outstanding shares of common stock and will have voting
control over all matters submitted to the holders of your common stock for approval.
Please make conforming revisions throughout the prospectus.
Prospectus Summary, page 4
4.Please revise to disclose the fact that your auditor has expressed substantial doubt about
your ability to continue as a going concern.
Risk Factor

regard, we note the transaction appears to cover only shares of common stock.
Selling Stockholders, page 19
6.Please briefly describe the transaction or transactions by which the selling
security holders obtained their shares. Please also revise Item 15 (Recent Sales of
Unregistered Securities) of Part II of the registration statement accordingly.

Inc. on April 8, 1999 (File No. 333-72223) and December 10, 2003 (File No. 333-

growth company under the JOBS Act.

and adequacy of their disclosures, notwithstanding any review, comments, action or absence of
action by the staff.
