Risk Factors, page 9

4. Please include any disclosure that would be required under Item 101 of Regulation S-K in your desc ription of business secti on.

There exists a potential for conflicts over the plan of exploration and execution” are in the proper format, while others, such as your heading, “Competitive Business Conditions” do not include the actual risk associated with such conditions. 6. Please group your risk factors into categor ies. For example, all risk factors dealing your properties and your industry should be grouped together, while all risk factors dealing with the structure of the Company should follow each other. 7.
