Summary of the Proxy Statement, page 19

2. We note that your disclosure on pages 24, 165 and 171 regarding your expectation that the Pecos Slope Plant will commence operations in the first quarter of 2025 does not appear to be consistent with your disclosure on page 20 that the Pecos Slope Plant is expected to commence operations in the second quarter of 2025. Please revise.

RESPONSE: The Company respectfully advises the Staff that the Pecos Slope Plant’s anticipated commencement date will be in the second quarter of 2025. Accordingly, the Company has clarified the disclosure on pages 24,117,165 and 172 of Amendment No. 4.

In that regard, we note your disclosure in that section that the Company would provide to AirLife, in part, all of the helium produced from the crude helium the Company purchases from Badger Midstream Energy, LP each month, minus two percent (2%) tolling losses.

RESPONSE: The Company respectfully refers the Staff to the revised disclosure on pages 170 and 171 of Amendment No. 4 to indicate that after entering into the Assignment Agreement NEH’s remaining obligation is to provide to AirLife fifty percent (50%) of the helium generated from the Pecos Slope Plant under the Liquid Helium Agreement, less two percent (2%) tolling losses. NEH no longer has an obligation to provide AirLife liquefied helium produced from crude helium purchased from Badger, as that crude helium will be sold by Badger directly to AirLife.

Please advise.

RESPONSE: The Company respectfully advises the Staff that the Company has refiled Exhibits 3.5 and filed Exhibit 3.6 to clarify that Exhibit 3.5 represents the current bylaws of Holdings, and that Exhibit 3.6 represents the proposed bylaws of the Combined Company, as indicated in the Exhibit Index.
