             SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On February 25, 1999, the

             Commission issued Release No. 34-41110 soliciting comment on

             reproposed amendments to Rule 15c2-11.  Rule 15c2-11 governs

             the publication of quotations for securities in a quotation

             medium other than a national securities exchange or Nasdaq.

             The Commission originally requested that comments on this

             reproposal be received by April 7, 1999.  The Commission has

             recently received several requests to extend the comment

             period and believes that extending the comment period is

             appropriate in order to give the public additional time to

             comment on the matters addressed by the release.  Therefore,

             the Commission is extending the comment period to May 8,

             1999, for Release No. 34-41110 (Publication or Submission of

             Quotations Without Specified Information).


                  By the Commission.
