Amendment No. 1 to Form S-1 filed June 2, 2021 Cover Page
1. | Please tell us the basis for your disclosure that the gross proceeds of this offering will not be less than $15,000,000 given that the price range is $5 to $6. |
Response: We believe the gross proceeds of this offering will not be less than $15,000,000 for the following reasons. The public offering, as stated on the cover page of the prospectus, is contingent upon the listing of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market. In order for the Company to comply with the Nasdaq Capital Market initial listing requirements it must have a market value of unrestricted publicly held shares of at least $15,000,000. The shares held by the only shareholder of the Company are not unrestricted publicly held shares. The gross proceeds of the offering therefore must be at least $15,000,000 in order for the Company to meet the Nasdaq Capital Market initial listing requirements. The representative of the underwriter is aware of this requirement and consented to the language that was included on the cover page of the prospectus.
Our Certificate of Incorporation and our bylaws provide that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, page 23

Please revise your disclosure accordingly. |
Response: We have revised the disclosure to state that our exclusive forum provision does not apply to suits to enforce a duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the Exchange Act and corrected the disclosure regarding our bylaws.
