We urge all persons who are responsible for the accuracy and adequacy of the disclosure
in the filing to be certain that the filin g include the information the Securities Act of 1933 and all
applicable Securities Act rules require. Since the company and its management are in possession
of all facts relating to a company’s disclosure, they are responsible for the accuracy and
adequacy of the disclosures they have made.
Notwithstanding our comments, in the event you request acceleration of the effective date
of the pending registration statement please provide a written sta tement from the company
acknowledging that:
should the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, declare the
filing effective, it does not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect
to the filing;
the action of the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, in
declaring the filing effective, does not relieve the company from its full responsibility for
the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing; and
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 the federal
securities laws of the United States.
Please refer to Rules 460 and 461 regarding request s for acceleration . We will consider
a written request for acceleration of the effective date of the registration statement as a
confirmation of the fact that those requesting acceleration are aware of their respective
responsibilities under the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as they
relate to the proposed public offering of the securities specified in the above registration
statement. Please allow adequate time for us to review any amendment prior to the request ed
effectiv e date of the registr ation statement .
