Dear
Mr. Reynolds:
At
the telephone request of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, we
are providing this amended letter to our original letter dated October 9,
2008 in response to certain comments made in the Commission’s letter dated
September 25, 2008 regarding the Company’s Registration Statement on form
S-1 filed on August 29, 2008 (the “Registration
Statement”). We are providing the following letter
containing our responses.
General
COMMENT
1:
Please
provide us, with a view toward disclosure in the prospectus, with the
total dollar value of the securities underlying the convertible Series A
Preferred Stock and other convertible securities that you have registered
for resale (using the number of underlying securities that you have
registered for resale and the market price per share for those securities
on the date of the sale of the Preferred and other convertible
securities).
RESPONSE:
We
have revised the Registration Statement to provide for a table with the
total dollar value at the market price when issued of the securities
underlying the convertible Series A Preferred Stock on page 10. No other
convertible securities are being
registered.
COMMENT
2:
Please
provide us, with a view toward disclosure in the prospectus, with tabular
disclosure of the dollar amount of each payment (including the value of
any payments to be made in common stock) in connection with the
transaction that you have made or may be required to make to any selling
shareholder, any affiliate of a selling shareholder, or any person with
whom any selling shareholder has a contractual relationship regarding the
transaction (including any interest payments, liquidated damages, payments
made to "finders" or "placement agents," and any other payments or
potential payments). Please provide footnote disclosure of the terms of
each such payment.

Further,
please provide us, with a view toward disclosure in the prospectus, with
disclosure of the net proceeds to the issuer from the sale of the
Preferred and other convertible securities and the total possible payments
to all selling shareholders and any of their affiliates in the first year
following the sale of the Preferred and other convertible
securities.
RESPONSE:
We
have revised the Registration Statement to provide for a table with
payments made, or that the Company may be required to make, in connection
to the transaction in accordance with the Commission’s comment above on
page 10. We have further revised the Registration Statement to provide a
disclosure, on pages 10 and 11, of the net proceeds received by the
Company from the sale of the Preferred and potential payments to be made
within the first year following the sale of the
Preferred.

Please
provide us, with a view toward disclosure in the prospectus, with tabular
disclosure of:
•
the
total possible profit the selling shareholders could realize as a result
of the conversion discount for the securities underlying the Preferred and
other convertible securities presented in a table, with the following
information disclosed separately:
•
the
market price per share of the securities underlying the convertible
securities on the date of sale of the convertible
securities;
•
the
conversion price per share of the underlying securities on the date of the
sale of the convertible securities, calculated as
follows:
-
if
the conversion/exercise price per share is set at a fixed price, use the
price per share established for the convertible securities;
and
-
if
the conversion price per share is not set at a fixed price and, instead,
is set at a floating rate in relationship to the market price of the
underlying security, use the conversion/exercise discount rate and the
market rate per share on the date of the sale of the convertible
securities and determine the conversion/exercise price per share as of
that date;
•
the
total possible shares underlying the convertible
securities;
•
the
combined market price of the total number of shares underlying the
convertible securities, calculated by using the market price per share on
the date of the sale of the convertible securities and the total possible
shares underlying them; combined conversion/exercise price of the total
number of shares underlying the convertible securities, calculated by
using the conversion/exercise price on the date of the sale of the
convertible securities and the total possible number of shares the selling
shareholders may receive; and
2
•
the
total possible discount to the market price as of the date of the sale of
the convertible securities, calculated by subtracting the total
conversion/exercise price on the date of the sale of the convertible
securities from the combined market price of the total number of shares
underlying them on that date.
If
there are provisions in the Preferred or other convertible securities that
could result in a change in the price per share upon the occurrence of
certain events, please provide additional tabular disclosure as
appropriate. For example, if the conversion/exercise price per share is
fixed unless and until the market price falls below a stated price, at
which point the conversion/exercise price per share drops to a lower
price, please provide additional
disclosure.
RESPONSE:
We
have revised the Registration Statement on page 11 to provide for a table
with the following information:
·
The
potential profit based on the conversion discount calculations related to
the Preferred;
·
The
market price per share of the securities underlying the Preferred on the
date of sale of the convertible
securities;
·
The
conversion price per share of the underlying securities on the date of the
sale of the Preferred, calculated as using the lowest possible conversion
price;
·
The
total possible shares underlying the
Preferred;
·
The
combined market price of the total number of shares underlying the
Preferred using the maximum number of shares;
and
·
The
total possible discount to the market price as of the date of the sale of
the Preferred.
The
conversion price of the Preferred is fixed at $0.08 per share of the
Company’s Common Stock through March 8, 2009. Thereafter, the
conversion price is the higher of $0.08 and 90% of the prior 10 trading
days volume weighted average price of the Company’s Common
Stock. This is disclosed as a footnote to the foregoing table
on page 11 of the Registration Statement. No additional
convertible securities were sold or are being registered, therefore there
are no other such provisions.
