Offering Statement on Form 1-A
Filed October 1, 2024
File No. 024-12515
Dear Kai-Shing Tao:
We have reviewed your offering statement and have the following comments.
Please respond to this letter by amending your offering statement and providing the
requested information. If you do not believe a comment applies to your facts and
circumstances or do not believe an amendment is appropriate, please tell us why in your
response. After reviewing any amendment to your offering statement and the information you
provide in response to this letter, we may have additional comments.
Offering Statement on Form 1-A
General
1.We note your disclosure that “If, at any time during the term of a Warrant, we issue
shares of our common stock for a price less than $5.00 per share (excluding certain
exempt issuances), the exercise price of a Warrant…shall be decreased to the lowest
price at which we issued shares of our common stock, provided that the exercise price
of a Warrant will never be less than the closing price per share of our common stock
in the OTCQX market on the date on which we close the first sale pursuant to this
Offering.” It is unclear to us how your proposed offering price will be set "at a fixed
price" as required by Rule 251(d)(3)(ii) of Regulation A. Rule 251(d)(3)(ii) prohibits
at the market offerings and defines such an offering as "an offering of equity securities
into an existing trading market for outstanding shares of the same class at other than a
fixed price." A fixed price is therefore required at qualification of securities so
qualified. Please provide us with your detailed legal analysis as to how this transaction
complies with Rule 251(d)(3)(ii).

2.We note that Note to paragraph (A) in Rule 251 of Regulation A requires the
underlying securities of warrants offered to also be qualified. However, it does not
appear that the company currently has a sufficient amount of common stock available
to issue all of the common stock underlying the warrants. Please provide us with your
analysis as to whether your offering should be considered an impermissible delayed
offering rather than a continuous offering within the meaning of Rule 251(d)(3)(i)(F)
of Regulation A. Please note that Rule 251(d)(3)(i)(F) is limited to offerings that
commence within two calendar days after qualification and are made on a continuous
basis during the offering period and does not permit delayed offerings.
3.Please revise your disclosure throughout the offering statement to clarify the impact
that the concurrent equity line will have on the value of the warrants and the volume
of common stock that is available for resale.
4.Please explain how the company intends to ensure the Form 1-A is appropriately
updated. In this regard, we note that the incorporation by reference of future filings is
not permissible on Form 1-A.
We will consider qualifying your offering statement at your request. If a participant in
your offering is required to clear its compensation arrangements with FINRA, please have
FINRA advise us that it has no objections to the compensation arrangements prior to
qualification.
We remind you that the company and its management are responsible for the accuracy
and adequacy of their disclosures, notwithstanding any review, comments, action or absence
of action by the staff. We also remind you that, following qualification of your Form 1-A,
Rule 257 of Regulation A requires you to file periodic and current reports, including a Form
1-K which will be due within 120 calendar days after the end of the fiscal year covered by the
report.
Please contact Alexandra Barone at 202-551-8816 or Matthew Derby at 202-551-
3334 with any other questions.
Sincerely,
Division of Corporation Finance
Office of Technology
