Please add risk factor disclosure regarding the exclusive forum provision included in Section 5(e) of each of the common warrants and the pre-funded warrants. Option to Purchase Additional Securities, page 28 2. We note that the overallotment option is for shares of common stock "and/or" warrants. Please reconcile this with the terms of the underwriting agreement, which suggest that the overallotment option is for "Option Units" or "Option Pre-funded Units." If you intend Richard Russell LM Funding America, Inc.

Please also address the fact that the company would not receive proceeds to the extent that a component of the Units were sourced other than through the company, such as on the open market. Exhibits 3. We note that the Warrants are governed by New York law. Please have counsel revise its opinion to include an opinion as to New York law with respect to the Warrants. General 4. Please revise the fee table to include the offering price for the warrant exercise in the maximum aggregate offering price and recalculate the registration fee.
