Re:
VIASPACE, Inc. Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File Number 333-139033)
Ladies and Gentlemen:
VIASPACE, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the
“Company”), pursuant to Rule 477(a) promulgated
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, hereby requests withdrawal of the Registration
Statement on Form S-3 (File Number
333-139033) together with all exhibits thereto (the
“Registration Statement”).
No securities were offered or sold pursuant to the Registration Statement. The Registration
Statement was initially filed in order to comply with contractual requirements accorded Cornell
Capital Partners, L.P., with respect to their securities received or to be received, in exchange
for an investment in
the Company.
The Company now wishes to renegotiate its financing and is
therefore withdrawing its Registration Statement prior to commencing such renegotiation. If such
renegotiation is successful,
the Company expects to file a new registration statement on Form S-3
that would reflect such revised transaction (the
“New Registration Statement”). Pursuant to Rule
457(p) of the Securities Act,
the Company intends to apply the filing fee from the Registration
Statement to the New Registration Statement that is filed.
Please forward a copy of the order granting withdrawal of the Registration Statement to our
counsel, Walter J. Mostek, Jr. of Drinker Biddle & Reath LLP at 1000 Westlakes Drive, Suite 300,
Berwyn,
Pennsylvania 19312. If you have any questions or comments, or require further information
or documentation, please contact Mr. Mostek at (
610) 993-2233 or by facsimile at (
610) 993-8585.
Thank you for your courtesy and cooperation in this matter.
