<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Company respectfully requests that the Commission waive the requirement of Item 8.A.4 of Form&nbsp;20-F, which states that in the case of a company&#146;s initial public offering, the registration statement on Form&nbsp;F-1 must contain audited financial statements of a date not older than 12 months from the date of the offering unless a waiver is obtained. <i>See also</i> Division of Corporation Finance, <i>Financial Reporting Manual</i>, Section&nbsp;6220.3.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Company is submitting this waiver request pursuant to Instruction 2 to Item 8.A.4 of Form&nbsp;20-F, which provides that the Commission will waive the 12-month age of financial statements requirement &#147;in cases where the company is able to represent adequately to us that it is not required to comply with this requirement in any other jurisdiction outside the United States and that complying with this requirement is impracticable or involves undue hardship.&#148; <i>See also</i> the Staff&#146;s 2004 release entitled <i>International Reporting and Disclosure Issues in the Division of Corporation Finance</i> (available on the Commission&#146;s website at http://www.sec.gov/divisions/corpfin/internatl/cfirdissues1104.htm) at Section&nbsp;III.B.c, in which the Staff notes:</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&#147;the instruction indicates that the staff will waive the 12-month requirement where it is not applicable in the registrant&#146;s other filing jurisdictions and is impracticable or involves undue hardship. As a result, we expect that the <u>vast majority</u> of IPOs will be subject only to the 15-month rule. The only times that we anticipate audited financial statements will be filed under the 12-month rule&nbsp;are when the registrant must comply with the rule&nbsp;in another jurisdiction, or when those audited financial statements are otherwise readily available.&#148; (emphasis added)</font></p>
