We note your disclosure under the heading Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting on page 97, stating that while substantial progress has been made in strengthening internal control over financial reporting during 2024, management continues to assess and enhance internal controls of the company.

Given the requirement to disclose any change in your internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, your internal control over financial reporting under Item 15(d) of Form 20-F, please revise to describe the progress to which you refer and to clarify the nature of its affect on your internal control over financial reporting.

With regard to your disclosure stating Electra has not yet implemented "the full suite of systems, processes, and personnel typically found in more mature organizations," clarify the extent to which this refers to aspects of the controls and procedures that your officers designed, as referenced in their certifications, and describe your plans for implementation and dates for resolving the deficiencies or weaknesses.
