Filed January 17,
2024
File No. 333-269760
Dear Raluca Dinu:
We have reviewed your amended registration statement and have the
following
comments.
Please respond to this letter by amending your registration
statement and providing the
requested information. If you do not believe a comment applies to your
facts and circumstances
or do not believe an amendment is appropriate, please tell us why in
your response.
After reviewing any amendment to your registration statement and
the information you
provide in response to this letter, we may have additional comments.
Unless we note otherwise,
any references to prior comments are to comments in our January 10, 2024
letter.
Amendment No.7 to Form S-4 filed on January 17, 2024
Net Tangible Assets Test, page 157
1. We note your revised
disclosure that "although our Existing Charter provides that we will
not redeem Public
Shares in an amount that would cause our net tangible assets to be less
than $5,000,001,
pursuant to Proposal No. 3.B, we are seeking to adopt the Proposed
Charter that would
remove this provision, and if adopted, the Proposed Charter would be
in effect at the time
of the Closing when any redemptions would occur in the event that
maximum redemptions
occur and the parties to the November 2023 Non-Redemption
Agreements have not
refrained from redeeming shares pursuant to the terms of those
agreements." Please
confirm if you believe you will not be required to comply with the net
tangible asset
provisions in your Current Charter in connection with the Business
Combination if Charter
Proposal B is approved prior to Closing. If so, please revise your
Registration Statement
to clearly explain this change and to remove disclosure stating you

will be bound by the net tangible asset requirement. For example, we note
your disclosure
on page 153 that "Unlike some other blank check companies, GigCapital5 is
not subject to
a specified maximum redemption threshold, except that we will not redeem
Public Shares
in an amount that would cause our net tangible assets to be less than
$5,000,001 after
giving effect to the redemptions of any shares of GigCapital5 Common
Stock by the
Public Stockholders, if any, the Stock Subscription Financing and the
Yorkville
Financing, including at the time either immediately prior to or upon the
Closing."

2. We note the revisions made in response to prior comment 2 and have the
following
comments:
As presented on page 164, it appears that the assumptions in the
first and third bullets
as well as the second and fourth bullets under the scenarios that
address the
November 2023 Non-Redemption Agreements are duplicative. Please ensure
the four
scenarios under the November 2023 Non-Redemption Agreements are
appropriately
described and discussed throughout the filing. In addition, discuss
why similar
scenarios assuming 50% and 75% redemptions are not necessary;
Notes (C11) and (C12) as discussed on page 199 reference Scenario 5
and 8,
respectively. We assume these notes should reference Scenarios 11 and
12; and
Notes (C10) and (C12) states "To reflect the redemption of all
2,114,978 shares of the
GigCapital5 Common Stock ($22,874,096)." Please reconcile this
statement to the
(C10) and (C12) equity adjustments on page 181.
3. We note your response to prior comment 6. You stated in Note B(5) that "a
holder of
shares of QT Imaging Common Stock was entitled to receive ....including
1,000,000
shares of GigCapital5 Common Stock." On page 159, you stated that such
holder is
entitled to receive 1 million shares of Combined Company common stock.
Please clarify
what shares will be issued to the holders upon the completion of the
business combination.
Please contact Christie Wong at 202-551-3684 or Jeanne Baker at
202-551-3691 if you
have questions regarding comments on the financial statements and related
matters. Please
contact Conlon Danberg at 202-551-4466 or Jane Park at 202-551-7439 with any
other
questions.
