We are authorized by the Company to provide the responses contained in this letter on its behalf. For your convenience, the text of each comment of the Staff in the Comment Letter is included

Company Response: The Staff’s comment is noted. We respectfully advise the Staff that in selecting companies within each of the three categories, the
Company considered each company’s revenue growth, EBITDA growth, operating margin and EBITDA margin. The Company has revised the disclosure on page 200 of the Amended Registration Statement to more precisely reflect the specific metrics that were

Company Response: The Staff’s comment is noted. In response to the Staff’s comment, the Company has included the requested disclosure in note 5 to the
Company’s financial statements. We note that the correct disclosure was included in the Company’s Form 10-K/A, but the footnote was not properly ported to the Form S-4 Registration Statement due to printer error.
The Company and its management acknowledge they are responsible for the accuracy and adequacy of their disclosures, notwithstanding any review, comments, action or absence of action by the
Staff.
