Dear Lyn Shenk:
In your letter dated December 20, 2017 (the “Staff Comment Letter”), you requested that we respond to your comments regarding our Form 10-K for the Fiscal Year ended December 31, 2016 and our Form 10-Q for the Fiscal Quarter ended September 30, 2017 within ten business days or advise you when we would provide a response.
During our telephone conversation with Aamira Chaudhry today, we advised her that, due to the upcoming holidays and other timing constraints on our finance and legal personnel, we were requesting an extension of time to provide a response. As a result, we will submit our response to the Staff Comment Letter by January 15, 2018.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Barry G. Steele
