Re:

Registration Statement on Form F-1
Filed September 10, 2025
File No. 333-290172
Dear: Ms. Pam Howell and Mr. Benjamin Holt
As counsel for the Company
and on its behalf, this letter is being submitted in response to the letter dated September 19, 2025 from the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “Commission”) in which the staff of the Commission (the “Staff”) commented on the
above-referenced Registration Statement on Form F-1 (the “Form F-1”). We have submitted an amendment No.1 to the Registration
Statement on Form F-1 (the Amendment”) in response to the Staff’s comments.
For the Staff’s convenience,
the Staff’s comment has been stated below in its entirety, with the Company’s response set out immediately underneath such
comment.
Registration Statement on Form F-1 filed
September 10, 2025
General
1.
Given the nature of your offering, including the size of the transaction relative to the number of outstanding shares held by non-affiliates and the amount of time the Selling Shareholders have held their shares, it appears that the transaction may be an indirect primary offering on behalf of the registrant. Please provide us with a detailed legal analysis of your basis for determining that it is appropriate to characterize the transaction as a secondary offering under Securities Act Rule 415(a)(1)(i). For guidance, please refer to Securities Act Rules Compliance and Disclosure Interpretation 612.09.
Response: We note the Staff’s
comment, and, in response hereto, respectfully advise the Staff that the selling stockholders are not and should not be considered “underwriters”
under Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act with respect to the sale of Resale Securities in the resale transaction contemplated by the
registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) should not be categorized as an indirect primary offering. The
legal analysis as to whether the selling shareholders should be deemed to be underwriters under Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act
is set forth below:
Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act
defines an underwriter as “any person who has purchased from an issuer with a view to, or offers or sells for
an issuer in connection with, the distribution of any security, or participates or has a direct or indirect participation in any such
undertaking, or participates or has a participation in the direct or indirect underwriting of any such underwriting…”
The Division of Corporation Finance (the “Division”) provided further guidance in Compliance and Disclosure Interpretation
612.09 (January 26, 2009) on the question of whether a “purported secondary offering is really a primary offering, i.e., the selling
stockholders are actually underwriters selling on behalf of an issuer” is a highly fact-specific question that should take into
account the following considerations: (i) the circumstances under which they received them; (ii) how long the selling stockholders have
held the shares; (iii) their relationship to the issuer; (iv) the amount of shares involved; (v) whether the sellers are in the business
of underwriting securities; and (vi) whether under all the circumstances it appears that the seller is acting as a conduit for the issuer.
Factor 1: Circumstances under
which the Selling Stockholders Acquired the Shares
Up to 74,995,887 Class A Ordinary Shares,
Prefunded Warrants, Class A Ordinary Share Purchase Warrant As, Class A Ordinary Share Purchase Warrant Bs, and Placement Agent Warrants
were issued and sold to the Selling Stockholders (“Resale Securities”) in a private placement that closed on August
29, 2025 (the “Private Placement”).
Quantum Leap Energy LLC is a subsidiary
of ASP Isotopes Inc. and is pursuing an initiative to produce advanced nuclear fuels, such as HALEU and Lithium-6, in South Africa. Paul
Mann is the manager of Quantum Leap Energy LLC. American Ventures LLC, Series XIX SKBL is an entity with principal businesses in private
investments. We refer to Quantum Leap Energy LLC, Paul Mann, and American Ventures LLC, Series XIX SKBL as “Investors.”
The placement agents, Dominari Securities LLC, Revere Securities LLC, and Pacific Century Securities, LLC (collectively, the “Placement
Agents” together with the Investors, the “Selling Shareholders”), each received Placement Agent Warrants in connection
with the private placement. Except for Dominari Securities LLC and Revere Securities LLC, which participated in our initial public offering,
to our knowledge, none of the Selling Shareholders have had any other material relationship with the Company. The Investors, who own 97.4%
of the shares among the Selling Shareholders, are not involved in the business of underwriting securities.
Factor 2: How Long the Selling
Stockholders Have Held the Shares
The Resale Securities were issued on
August 29, 2025. Although the Selling Stockholders have held their securities for approximately one month, there is no assurance that
the Registration Statement will be declared effective. Accordingly, the Selling Stockholders are subject to the full economic and market
risks of their investment since the date of the acquisition of the Resale Securities.
Further, although the Registration Statement
covers all of Class A Ordinary Shares as well as the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Prefunded Warrants, A Warrants,
B Warrants, and Placement Agent Warrants, the selling stockholders do not currently intend to dispose of all of such shares in a single
transaction; thus, the Selling Shareholders will continue to bear the market risk of holding the Company’s shares even after the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement. The Company believes that the period of time that each Selling Shareholders will have held
the shares and have borne the economic and market risk of such ownership, together with the additional factors described herein, evidence
that each Selling Stockholder is acting on its own behalf and is not acting as a statutory underwriter.
Factor 3: Relationship with
Company
To the Company’s knowledge, except
for (i) Dominari Securities LLC and Revere Securities LLC, which participated in our initial public offering, and (ii) Quantum Leap Energy
LLC, whose Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Ryno Pretorius, and Jacob Roew, Vice President of Business Development and Investor Relations
at ASP Isotopes Inc. (the parent company of Quantum Leap Energy LLC), have served as directors of the Company since September 2025, none
of the Selling Shareholders have had any material relationship with the Company.
2
In addition, the Selling Shareholders,
instead of the Company, would be responsible for paying any broker-dealer fees or commissions directly to the broker-dealers they engage
to assist in selling the Resale Securities.
For this reason, the Company believes
the Selling Shareholders did not acquire their shares with a view to distribution and thus should not be viewed as “underwriters”
in connection with the offering of the Company.
Factor 4: The Amount of Shares
Involved
The Selling Shareholders are offering
up to 74,995,887 Class A Ordinary Shares, constituting approximately 676.29% of our outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares, assuming exercise
of all Prefunded Warrants, A Warrants, B Warrants, and Placement Agent Warrants. Upon exercise of the warrants, a substantial number of
Class A Ordinary Shares will be registered for potential resale. However, the Selling Shareholders do not currently intend to dispose
of all such shares in a single transaction. The Selling Shareholders are subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations, pursuant
to which no holder may exercise A Warrants or B Warrants if, following such exercise, such Selling Shareholder would beneficially own
more than 4.99% or 9.99% of our issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares.
Factor 5: Whether the Selling
Stockholder is in the business of underwriting securities
As stated above, Quantum Leap Energy
LLC is a subsidiary of ASP Isotopes Inc. and is pursuing an initiative to produce advanced nuclear fuels, such as HALEU and Lithium-6,
in South Africa. Paul Mann is the manager of Quantum Leap Energy LLC. American Ventures LLC, Series XIX SKBL is an entity with principal
businesses in private investments. To the Company’s knowledge, none of the Investors have at any time been affiliated with, or acted
as, securities broker-dealers or representatives thereof.
Furthermore, in connection with the
Resale Securities, the Selling Shareholders have not entered into any underwriting arrangements with the Company, nor do they have any
contractual, legal or other relationship with the Company that would control the timing, nature or amount of resales of the Resale Securities,
or whether any Resale Securities will be resold at all under the Registration Statement. The Selling Shareholders will receive no commission
or other payment from the Company for the sale of Resale Securities, and the Company will not receive any of the proceeds from such sales.
Therefore, the Company believes that the Selling Shareholders are not in the business of underwriting securities.
Factor 6: Whether under All
the Circumstances it Appears that the Selling stockholders Are Acting as a Conduit for the Company
The Company has not entered into any
contracts, commitments, arrangements, or understandings with the Selling Shareholders to carry out any transaction in the Resale Securities.
In addition, at the time of acquisition of the Resale Securities, to the Company’s knowledge, the Selling Shareholders did not have
any agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute such Resale Securities.
3
Conclusion
For the foregoing reasons, the Company
believes that the Selling Shareholders, are not and should not be considered, “underwriters” under Section 2(a)(11) of the
Securities Act with respect to the sale of Resale Securities in the proposed offering. The Selling Shareholders did not acquire the Resale
Securities under circumstances that would indicate that they were receiving compensation from the Company in connection with the Resale
Securities or that the Company had any financial interest in the sale of the Resale Securities. Additionally, there is no evidence of
special selling efforts or selling methods that would suggest a view to “distribution.” Finally, to the Company’s knowledge,
the Investors, who collectively own 97.4% of the shares among the Selling Shareholders, are not in the business of underwriting securities.
In light of these circumstances and the others described herein, we respectfully submit that the Selling Shareholders are not acting as
underwriters on behalf of, or as a conduit for, the Company. The Company has filed this registration statement on Form F-1 to register
the Resale Securities in connection with the resale transaction instead of having an indirect primary offering.
2.
To the extent the exercise price of any of the convertible securities being registered is subject to adjustment, please revise your disclosure throughout the prospectus, as appropriate, to clearly so state. For example, we note that pursuant to Section 3 of each of Exhibit 4.2, Exhibit 4.3, and Exhibit 4.4, it appears the exercise price of the warrants would be adjusted under certain circumstances, including, as applicable, a Dilutive Issuance, a Variable Rate Transaction, stock dividends and splits, or voluntarily at the company's discretion. We also note that pursuant to Article 3.1 and Schedule 3.1(g) of Exhibit 10.9, it appears the exercise price of the convertible securities may be subject to adjustment.
Response: The Company revised
the Cover Page, pages 49, and page II-2 of the Amendment in response to the Staff’s comments.
