Subject: File No.S7-5-99 Author: Anuja Varshney Date: 5/6/99 11:57 PM Dear Sirs: As an investor in many OTC companies, I believe the proposed rule changes to Rule 15c2-11 will hurt the companies and market makers involved. Thus, consequently, I would be impacted as well. Please consider carefully the various objections (and number of objections) before changing the rules. Thank you. Anuja Sekhri Varshney
