File No. 333 -208583

Risk Factors, page 8
1. Given the material risk that your tax obligations will significantly exceed your
corresponding recorded liabilities, please revise note 15 on page F -21 to quantify the
range of reasonably possible loss in excess of the amount accrued. It is clear that a
reasonable estimate can be made given that the relevant Xibolun transactions and
corresponding tax rates are known, as are the customary interest and penalties generally
applied by the taxing authorities in similar circumstances. Absent such disclosure, it i s
not possible for a reader to assess the magnitude of this risk and the corresponding impact
on the solvency of the company. See ASC 10 -50-21.
2. Please provide a complete description of the tax loss contingency in MD&A as required
by Section 501.02 of the Financial Reporting Codification and Instruction 1 to Item 5 of
Form 20 -F. The analysis should separately address each component of your tax liability

of any adjustments that tax authorities have discussed in prior communications with the
