5. We note the opinion of counsel that the business combination should
qualify for tax-free
treatment. Whenever there is significant doubt about the tax
consequences of the
transaction, it is permissible for the tax opinion to use should
rather than will, but
counsel providing the opinion must explain why it cannot give a
will opinion and
describe the degree of uncertainty in the opinion. Please also include
appropriate risk
factor disclosure. Please also revise the opinions filed as Exhibits
8.2 and 8.3 to have
counsel consent to being named in the registration statement. Please
refer to Sections
III.C.4 and D of Staff Legal Bulletin 19.

Financial Statements of Live Oak Acquisition Corp. II
Note 1 - Description of Organization and Business Operations, page F-6
7. You disclose on page 229 that you had working capital of $285,127 as
of June 30, 2021;
however, you disclose on page F-8 that you had working capital of
$245,127 as of June

discrepancy.

8. Please more fully explain the following:
Tell us how you determined the revised grant date fair value of
$5.53 per share for
the restricted common stock you issued during the interim period,
Tell us the facts and circumstances related to the subsequent
recession of the
restricted common stock you issued during the interim period, and
Explain to us how and why you believe the grant date fair value
of $.48 per share for
stock options you issued during the interim period is
appropriate.

9. Please revise the legal opinion filed as Exhibit 5.1 to remove the
assumption that the
registration statement will comply with all applicable laws; only its
effectiveness should
be assumed. Please also revise the penultimate paragraph of the
opinion, as this appears
to limit reliance, and make conforming revisions to the Legal Matters
section. Refer to
Section II.B.3. of Staff Legal Bulletin 19.
10. When counsel elects to file a short form tax opinion, the opinion and
the proxy
statement/prospectus both must state clearly that the discussion in
the proxy
statement/prospectus constitutes counsel s opinion. With respect to
Exhibit 8.1, we note
that counsel opines that the discussion under the caption "Material
U.S. Federal Income
Tax Consideration U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations for Holders
of Class A
Common Stock" is accurate in all material respects. Please revise to
state that the
foregoing discussion is counsel s opinion. Refer to Sections III.B
and C of Staff Legal
Bulletin 19. We further note the assumption that the Registration
Statement is true,
complete, and correct and will remain so. This assumption appears
overbroad, since it
includes the tax discussion being opined upon; please revise
accordingly. Please also
revise the penultimate paragraph of the opinion to remove limitations
on reliance. See
Section III.D of Staff Legal Bulletin 19.
