2.Please explain why you anticipate the cash required to service your debt to be between
$765 to $1,175. In this respect, you disclose that the interest on the convertible
debentures will continue to be accreted to the debentures’ principal outstanding and
not paid in cash, and the debentures will be converted into shares of your commons
stock at their respective maturity.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates, page 49
3.Please clarify your response to prior comment 8 and revised disclosures that
indicate the reference to a third-party appraiser (your page F-23) relates to fair market
value appraisals solely in connection with the calculation of the number of shares
issuable upon a cashless exercise of the warrants prior to the initial public offering,
and not for accounting purposes. Explain how you considered the third-party
appraisals in determining the fair market value of a share of your common stock.
Refer to Question 141.02 of Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations of the
Securities Act Section. The answer to this question in part states "If the disclosure
attributes a statement to a third party expert, the registrant must comply with the
requirements of Securities Act Rule 436 with respect to such statement."
Alternatively, if true, consider disclosing that management "considered or relied in
part upon a report of a third party expert, or provides similar disclosure that attributes
the [fair values] figures to the registrant and not the third party expert, then there
would be no requirement to comply with Rule 436." Revise your disclosures in this
section to explain the methods that management uses to determine the fair value of the
common stock and the nature of the material assumptions involved. Your revised
disclosure in this section should also explain the extent to which the estimates are
considered highly complex and subjective. In addition, revise to disclose that the
estimates will not be necessary to determine the fair value of your common stock once
the underlying shares begin trading.

Executive Compensation Plans, page 68
4.We note the revisions made in response to prior comment 10 and re-issue this
comment in part. In this regard, your current disclosure states that the compensation
committee is evaluating whether to authorize the company to enter into "new"
employment agreements with your NEOs. Please revise to clarify whether you
currently have employment agreements with your NEOs. If so, please revise to
describe the material terms of these existing agreements and file them as exhibits.
Description of Capital Stock
Convertible Debentures, page 75
We note your response to prior comment 12. Describe how you considered that each
of the Debentures issued on January 19, 2023 and July 25, 2024 contain a mandatory
redemption provision stating that upon the consummation of a “Subsequent
Financing,” the Company shall use 50% of the gross proceeds of such Subsequent
Financing to redeem principal outstanding on all Debentures. Explain whether any of 5.

the net proceeds from the sale of shares in this offering will be used to redeem the
principal outstanding on Debentures.
6.We note from your response to prior comment 13 that the automatic conversion of the
July 2019 Debenture, April 2020 Debenture, and September 2020 Debenture will be
subject to the beneficial ownership limitations on conversion of 4.99% of the
outstanding common stock and, therefore, less than the entire balance of such
debentures will convert in connection with the offering. We further note that ATW
Partners may elect to increase its beneficial ownership limitation to 9.99%. Please
explain whether the outstanding Debentures and Warrants remain convertible and
exercisable into shares of your common after ATW Partners reaches the beneficial
ownership limitation of 9.99%. Describe any changes to conversion and
redemption features associated with the Debentures and exercise rights associated
with the Warrants once ATW Partners reach the beneficial ownership limits.

audit report in the Draft Registration Statement on Form S-1 submitted on April 23,
2025 was signed by Moss Adams and dated April 23, 2025. Please explain why the
audit report in the Draft Submission No. 2 to the Draft Registration Statement on
Form S-1 submitted on July 1, 2025 is now signed by Baker Tilly with the same April
23, 2025 report date. In this respect, explain why Baker Tilly signed the audit report
