Re:

 Registration Statement on Form S-1

 Filed September 9, 2013

File No. 333-191054 (the “Registration Statement”)

Dear Ms. Ravitz:

 We are writing in response to your
letter dated October 2, 2013 (the “Comment Letter”), setting forth comments provided by the Staff of the Division of Corporation Finance (the “Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”)
with respect to the Registration Statement. The discussion below is presented in the order of the numbered comments in the Comment Letter. For your convenience, each of the Company’s responses is preceded with an italicized recitation of the
corresponding comment set forth in the Comment Letter.

 Certain Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences, page 32

1.
Please file a tax opinion in accordance with Regulation S-K, Item 601(b)(8). Refer to section III.A.2 of Staff Legal Bulletin No. 19 (CF) (Oct. 14, 2011).

Response: We have filed the requested tax opinion as Exhibit 8.1 to the Registration Statement.

2.
The heading to this section indicates that the disclosure addresses “certain” material tax consequences. Please revise the heading to remove any implication that your disclosures address some but not all
material tax consequences.

 Response: We have revised this heading to remove any implication that our
disclosure addresses some but not all material tax consequences.

3.
Investors are entitled to rely on the opinion and therefore it is inappropriate to indicate that it is provided “for general information only.” Refer to section III.D.1 of Staff Legal Bulletin No. 19
and revise accordingly.

 Response: We have revised this language to remove any indication that the opinion
is for general information only.

 Receipt of Subscription Rights, page 33

4.
Your disclosure on page 34 indicates that stockholders should not recognize taxable income for U.S. federal income tax purposes in connection with the receipt of the subscription rights. Whenever possible, you must
state unequivocally the tax consequences of the transaction, not merely what the consequences “should” be. In each circumstance where counsel is not able to opine on a material tax matter, please say so directly and disclose why you are
not able to provide the disclosure. Please revise your disclosure accordingly and also revise your disclosures on pages 5 and 17, as applicable.

Response: We have revised applicable disclosures to either unequivocally state the tax consequences of the transaction, or where
we are not able to opine on material tax matters, to say so and disclose why we are not able to provide such disclosure.

 Tax Basis in the
Subscription Rights, page 34

5.
To the extent that counsel is not able to opine on a material tax matter, please say so directly. Please also revise to explain why you do not intend to obtain an appraisal of the subscription rights following
distribution of the subscription rights. Also, add risk factor disclosure concerning the uncertainty and provide prominent disclosure of the tax consequences in your “Questions and Answers” section.

Response: We have revised our disclosure to explain why we do not intend to obtain an appraisal of the subscription rights
following the distribution of them, and have added some revisions to the disclosure in the “Questions and Answers” section regarding the tax consequences.

6.
Your disclosure indicates that the valuation of the subscription rights could impact stockholders’ basis in their existing common shares. Accordingly, please revise the heading for this subsection to clarify
that the consequences of the distribution also impact stockholders’ basis in their existing shares.

Response: We have revised the heading for this subsection to clarify that the consequences of the distribution also impact
stockholders’ basis in their existing shares.
