on July 23, 2014, or as soon as practicable thereafter.
The Company acknowledges the
following:
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.
