Dear Mr. Horwood:

I am writing to request an extension to file a comment on the proposed rule entitled "Securities Offering Reform," SEC file # S7-38-04. In particular, my comment will address the liability issues raised in Section IV of the proposed rule.

Section IV of the proposed rule is technical in nature, and it will take additional time to gather and analyze the relevant information, such as judicial opinions, scholarly articles, and professional input that bear on the issue.

My request is made perhaps more pertinent by the lack of comprehensive comments in the docket as of January 26, 2005. An extension it would make it possible for additional interested persons to file comments of a substantial nature.

Thank you for your consideration,

Sincerely,

David Tuttle
