Still, in response to the Staff Letter, the Registrant hereby confirms that the Registrant will be certain to consider and, as applicable, address, the topics raised in the Staff Letter, as well as any material developments to the Company’s risk oversight structure, when drafting its future proxy disclosure.

We appreciate the Staff’s time and attention to this matter. If you have any questions or comments or require further information, please do not hesitate to telephone the undersigned at (610) 889-5237 or Robert S. Feit at (610) 889-5258.
