  Schedule 13E-3

  Collective Position of the Filing Persons as to the Fairness of the Merger,
page 6

  1. The discussion only addresses fairness of the transaction to the "Public
Shareholders."
     Please conform the disclosure here and throughout the disclosure document
to the standards
     codified in Item 1014(a) of Regulation M-A by revising or supplementing
this statement to
     make clear that the fairness determination is directed, as required, at
unaffiliated security
     holders. Refer also to Rule 13e-3(a)(4) which defines the term
"unaffiliated security holder."
  2. Please revise to indicate, if true, that a specific going concern book
value was not calculated
     or considered by the Filing Persons in making their respective fairness
determinations. Refer
     to Instruction 2(iv) of Item 1014 of Regulation M-A and Questions and
Answers 20-21 in
     Exchange Act Release 17719 (April 13, 1981).

3. The Filing Persons anticipate going private will result in direct cost
savings of approximately
   $2,200,000 per year. Please revise here or elsewhere in the filing to
indicate explicitly, if
   true, which affiliates will become the direct beneficiaries of the cost
savings associated with
   Hanwha's no longer having to comply with the federal securities laws and
otherwise
   remaining a publicly held issuer. See Instruction 2 to Item 1013(d) of
Regulation M-A.
4. Hanwha suffered a net operating loss in 2017. Please specify the
constituency, if any,
   expected to become the beneficiary of the Hanwha's and/or its successor's
future use of any
   net operating loss carryforwards, if any. Please quantify that benefit to
the extent practicable.
   See Instruction 2 to Item 1013(d) of Regulation M-A.
Factors Considered in Determining Fairness, page 23
5. Advise us, with a view towards revised disclosure, how compliance with Item
1014(e) of
   Regulation M-A regarding the approval of transaction by a majority of
directors not
   employed by Hanwha has been effectuated. Please note that an affirmative
response to this
   disclosure requirement must be provided, even if the response is in the
negative. Refer to
   General Instruction E of Schedule 13E-3.
Exhibit 99(c)(3)

6. We noticed the disclaimer wherein it appears the financial advisor obligated
the Special
   Committee to whom the presentation was "solely" provided to obtain the
financial advisor's
   prior written consent before making public release of the information.
Similar language
   regarding the necessity of obtaining Houlihan Lokey's prior written consent
appears on page
   30 of the information statement. Please revise the disclosure statement to
be mailed to
   shareholders to state, if true, that the financial advisor has consented to
the use of its
   disclosure content   including that which has been filed as separate
exhibits  by the Filing
   Persons for purposes of public disclosure in the Schedule 13E-3.
Alternatively, provide the
   disclosures recommended by the Division of Corporation Finance accessible
via the link
   below as being necessary to clarify security holders' right to rely on such
materials.

and adequacy of
their disclosures, notwithstanding any review, comments, action or absence of
action by the staff.
