Amendment No. 5 to Offering Statement on Form 1-A Filed December 2, 2022 File No. 024-11353 Dear Nicholas Scherling: We have reviewed your amended offering statement and have the following comments. In some of our comments, we may ask you to provide us with information so we may better understand your disclosure. Please respond to this letter by amending your offering statement and providing the requested information. If you do not believe our comments apply 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 these comments, we may have additional comments. Unless we note otherwise, our references to prior comments are to comments in our April 22, 2022 letter. Amendment No.5 to Offering Statement on Form 1-A Filed December 2, 2022 Cover Page 1.We note that throughout the offering circular you have changed "$75,000,000" to "$74,250,000." However, please revert the change on the cover page where it now says "The offering will exist until the date on which the offering of any additional stock would cause the aggregate offering price or aggregate gross sales in this offering, as those terms are defined under Rule 251(a) of the Securities Act, to exceed $74,250,000.00." We believe this change was made in error. 2.We note your response to comment 1 and reissue in part. We acknowledge the reduction of the total offering to $74,250,000 to accommodate the Braintree fee. However, it would seem that the Braintree fee could still theoretically cause you to exceed the $75,000,000
