Once the Registration Statement has been declared effective, please orally confirm that event with Darren DeStefano of Cooley LLP, counsel to the Registrant, at (703) 456-8034. In connection with this request, the Registrant acknowledges 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 Registrant from its full responsibility for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing; and • the Registrant 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.
