We remind you that, pursuant to federal securities rules, the term “control” (including the terms “controlling,” “controlled by,” and “under common control with”) as defined in Securities Act Rule 405 means “the possession, direct or indirect, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise.” The Sample Letters also sought specific disclosures relating to uncertainties regarding the enforcement of laws and that the rules and regulations in China can change quickly with little advance notice.

Please revise to provide clear disclosure throughout the filing of the prior failure to register the two lease agreements with the relevant government authorities. Please specify the governmental authorities with whom the leases were filed, any fines or penalties due to the failure to register, and whether this failure to register has or may in the future impact the other regulatory permissions you have received or will receive. Please add risk factor disclosure. We remind you that the company and its management are responsible for the accuracy and adequacy of their disclosures, notwithstanding any review, comments, action or absence of action by the staff.
