We are concurrently filing via EDGAR amendment No. 2 to the Registration Statement (“Amendment No. 2”).

Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-1

Summary Investment Criteria, page 6

1.
You disclose here and throughout your prospectus that your amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide that you renounce your interest in any corporate opportunity offered to any director unless such opportunity is expressly offered to such person solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of your company and such opportunity is one you are legally and contractually permitted to undertake and would otherwise be reasonable for you to pursue. However, this disclosure is inconsistent with the provisions in Section 51 of your amended and restated certificate of incorporation regarding such corporate opportunities. Please revise your prospectus disclosure or your form of amended and restated certificate of incorporation to address this discrepancy.

The Company acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosures on pages 6, 7, 9, 62, 87, 88, 90, and 115 of Amendment No. 2 in response to the Staff’s comment to make the disclosure consistent with Section 51 of the form amended restated memorandum and articles of association.
