Date: 12/29/1999 1:21 AM Subject: Proposed Regulation FD Comment Please implement Proposed Regulation FD. It is a good start in making the markets equally accessible to all investors, including the individual investor, as I am. Institutions and large investors have far less personally to gain or loose than those of us - small investors - trying to prepare for our family's futures. After all, we own the companies in which we invest. Company management should speak directly to all of its owners. Given its importance in advancing the quality of life for all of us, the marketplace is no place for stealth, special favors, and inside strategy. Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the proposed regulation. Regards, Frank Kendall 7802 Country Meadow Way Windsor, CA 95492 PH: 707-838-1419 Fax: 707-838-1492
