Re: Roth CH Acquisition IV Co
Amendment No. 2 to Registration Statement on Form S-4
Filed April 7, 2023
File No. 333-269095
Ladies and Gentlemen:
On behalf of our client, Roth CH Acquisition IV Co. (“ROCG”
or the “Company”), we submit this letter setting forth the responses of the Company to the comments that were provided by
the staff (the “Staff”) of the Division of Corporation Finance of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“Commission”) by your letter dated April 18, 2023 (the “Comment Letter”), regarding the above-referenced
filing (the “Registration Statement”). Concurrently with the filing of this letter, the Company is filing its Amendment No. 3
to Registration Statement on Form S-4 (the “Amended Registration Statement”), which includes changes to reflect responses
to the Staff’s comments and other updates.
We are authorized by the Company to provide the responses contained
in this letter on its behalf. For your convenience, the text of each comment of the Staff in the Comment Letter is included in italics
below and the Company’s responses appear below each comment. The references in the captions below correspond to the numbered paragraphs
of the Comment Letter.
Amendment No. 2 to Form S-4
General
1. Please revise disclosure relating to the
non-redemption agreements and related payments to reconcile apparent inconsistencies, for
example, on pages 115, 136, F-18, and F-22. Clarify which party entered the agreements,
made or will make payments, and received or will receive reimbursement. Revise references
to "certain initial stockholders," which does not appear to be a defined term,
to specifically identify these parties. Revise disclosure in the summary section under the
heading "The Sponsor and ROCG’s Directors and Executive Officers Have Financial
Interests in the Business Combination," and add disclosure in the related party transactions
section, as appropriate to reflect the foregoing payments and commitments.

Company
Response: The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and respectfully advises the Staff that we have
updated the disclosure on pages xix, 9, 67, 122, 146, and 222 of the Amended Registration Statement to reflect the
requested disclosure.
2. We note your disclosure that, "In further recognition of Roth’s
contributions, the Sponsors additionally intend to, following the Closing, transfer to Roth
for no consideration up to a number of shares of the Combined Company’s common stock
equal to two-thirds of the potential 200,000 Variable Shares which are not issued pursuant
to the BCMA Termination Agreement." Please revise the reference to "Variable Shares,"
which does not appear to be a defined term, and clarify that Roth is itself a sponsor, according
to the definition on page v. Additionally revise disclosure within the related party
transactions section related to Roth on page 260 to describe the amendment to the BCMA
Termination Agreement and the intended transfer of shares from the other sponsors.
Company
Response: The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and respectfully advises the Staff that we have
updated the disclosure on pages 18, 290, and 291 of the Amended Registration Statement to reflect the requested disclosure.
Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences, page 231
3. On page 231, you state that "This
discussion is for general information only" and that shareholders are urged to consult
their tax advisors as to the particular tax considerations of the business combination to
them, including the applicability and effect of any U.S. federal laws. Investors are entitled
to rely on your disclosure. Revise to eliminate these inappropriate disclaimers. You may
recommend that investors consult their own advisors with respect to consequences of the transactions
that could vary based on their particular circumstances. For guidance, refer to Section III.D.
of Staff Legal Bulletin No. 19.
Company
Response: The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and respectfully advises the Staff that we have
updated the disclosure on page 251 of the Amended Registration Statement to reflect the requested disclosure.
Material Tax Consequences with respect to a Redemption of Public
Shares, page 232
4. We
note you have included a "short-form" tax opinion as Exhibit 8.2 to the Registration
Statement. Please revise this section to state clearly that the disclosure is the opinion
of named counsel, and to ensure that the disclosure clearly identifies and articulates the
opinion being rendered with respect to each material tax consequence being opined upon. For
guidance, refer to Section III.B.2 of Staff Legal Bulletin 19.
Company
Response: The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and respectfully advises the Staff that we have
updated the disclosure on page 252 of the Amended Registration Statement to reflect the requested disclosure.

The Company and its management acknowledge they are responsible for
the accuracy and adequacy of their disclosures, notwithstanding any review, comments, action or absence of action by the Staff.
