Amendment No. 5 to Registration Statement on Form F-1 filed May 10, 2024
General
1.We note your response to prior comment 5. Please further elaborate on the following
aspects of your response:
•the reasons for adding the resale offering to the registration statement at this time. In
this regard, your response indicates that the number of shares being registered in the
resale offering compared to the number of shares being registered in the initial public
offering was determined based on "the number that the Selling Shareholders intend to
register and resell," but does not adequately address whether and why the resale
offering is being registered at the same time as the public offering. Explain in

potential investors" solely through a traditional firm commitment underwritten
offering;
•how and when the selling shareholders were selected to participate in the resale
offering, including which party(ies) initiated contact regarding the potential
transaction. Your response states that "the Sponsors...indicated to the Company about
its intent to register and resell a portion of its shares," but it is unclear when and how
this occurred; and
•why it was decided that the selling shareholders would not be subject to lock-up
arrangements with respect to only the resale shares and whether the underwriter
sought to have the selling shareholders subjected to such lock-up provisions. Your
response indicates that you and the underwriters "agreed" to change the lock-up
arrangements at the time the resale prospectus was filed; please expand to explain the
underlying reasoning for such agreement, detail any negotiations that took
place, and discuss why the availability of a set of resale shares three times the size of
the primary offering for offer and sale into the market once trading commences does
not create concern for the underwriters' ability to facilitate the creation of a public
market.
