18. We note that you have determined that there were errors in the original accounting for the acquisitions of Javaco and Pak-It, the valuation of media credits, and equity issuances, causing your company to restate previously reported financial results as of and for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Please explain to us the nature of these media credits and how you accounted for and valued them. Please cite the applicable U.S. GAAP you considered when determining how to appropriately account for the referenced transaction.
