Re:
Chartwell
Technology, Inc.
Form 20-F: For the Year Ended October 31, 2004
Filed May 16, 2005
File No. 003-30456
Dear Sirs:
On
May 16, 2005, Chartwell Technology, Inc. (the “Company”) filed an annual report
on Form 20-F for the year ended October 31, 2004 (the “Form 20-F”) with the
United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). On September 29,
2005, the staff of the SEC (the “Staff”) issued the Company a letter setting
forth comments to the Form 20-F (the “Comment Letter”).
We
understand that Steve Williams of the staff conferred with Kenneth Sam of Dorsey &
Whitney LLP, our United States special counsel, on October 13, 2005. Mr. Sam confirmed
that the Company is eligible to deregister its common shares pursuant to either Rule
12g-4(a)(1) or Rule 12g-4(a)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
“Exchange Act”), and that the Company intends to file a Form 15 to terminate the
registration of its class of common stock no later than October 31, 2005.
Consequently,
pursuant to Mr. Williams’ advice, the Company does not intend to respond to the
Comment Letter. In the event that the Company elects to register its class of common
shares under Section 12 of the Exchange Act or files a registration statement in
connection with the offer and sale of common shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, the Company undertakes to address the comments set forth in the Comment Letter in
connection with such registration.
Please
contact our counsel, Kenneth Sam at (206) 903-8804 or Bo-Yong Park at (212) 415-9368, if
you have any questions.
Sincerely,
/s/ Don Gleason
Don Gleason
Chief Finance Officer
