Please note that we may have additional comments. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 8. Convertible preferred stock Liquidation, page F-18, page F-18 4. Please demonstrate to us why you believe that common shareholders hold a majority of the board seats and, as such, that the company controls the vote of the Board of Directors and any deemed liquidation event. As of December 31, 2018, it appears that only two board seats elected are controlled by common shareholders. In this regard, it appears that pursuant to articles 3.2.3 and 3.2.4 of your certificate of incorporation (exhibit 3.1) that the other four board seats elected are controlled by the preferred shareholders or effectively controlled by preferred shareholders voting together with common stock as a single class given the number of shares of preferred entitled to vote on an as-converted basis.
