1. Refer to comment 1 in our last comment letter. We note that the Offeror is not a public
reporting company under Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the 1934 Act nor will it acquire all
outstanding securities of the subject class. We further note that you propose to include
only a balance sheet of the Offeror and that the Offeror is a holding company of Mr.
Solonin. Please tell us why a complete set of financial statements of the Offeror,
including statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, statements of
changes in equity, statements of cash flows, and notes would not be material. Include in
your response an explanation of the “Investment in subsidiary”, the terms of the borrowed
funds, the history of the Offeror, and how the difference between the contributed $20
million and the net assets have been used. Refer to Instructions 1 and 2 to Item 10 of
