Date: 4/7/99 10:29 AM Subject: File No. S7-30-98 ATT: Jonathan G. Katz, Secretary U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission 450 Fifth Street NW, Stop 6-9 Washington, DC 20549 Dear Mr. Katz: On behalf of our company, I am writing in opposition to the proposed rule to shorten the filing periods for forms 10-K and 10-Q. We believe that any possible benefits that could be derived by the shareholder would be outweighed by the additional strains placed on our accounting personnel and potential increased expense and coordination difficulties that would occur with our external auditors and attorneys. We believe that the shortened time frame would be especially troublesome for preparation of the 10-K. For our small company, it is indeed a struggle each year to not only assemble the required information for the external audit but to prepare the numerous schedules required for the 10-K filing in the 90-day time period. By shortening this period, our company could incur additional compensation expense which would certainly not be in the bests interests of our shareholders. Like most companies, we strive to release our earnings as soon as possible after the end of the period. We believe that this is primarily the information for which our shareholders and potential shareholders are anxious. We appreciate your attention to our comments. Sincerely, Don D. Jennings Chief Financial Officer Frankfort First Bancorp, Inc. (FKKY--Nasdaq) 216 W Main Street P.O. Box 535 Frankfort, KY 40602 (502) 223-1638
