Date: 4/8/99 9:54 AM Subject: Re: File No. S7-5-99 I am strongly against these new rule amendments that you are proposing. This could/would have a direct impact on our stock. These amendments are placing undue authority on Market Makers and subjecting them to untold lawsuits. If these amendments are passed, scam artist would dominate the market, as legitmate traders and brokers would pull out. Trusting that you will listen to the voice of the investors and companies who stand to lose if you put these amendments through, I remain M. Boak
