We note your revisions in response to comment 1. Please revise to quantify both "the closing price of the SB One common stock on the last trading day preceding the first public announcement of the merger" and "the minimum implied value [of the per share merger consideration] that would have avoided triggering this termination right." Please make corresponding revisions throughout your proxy statement/prospectus. Steven M.
