Re: ONTRO, INC. REGISTRATION STATEMENT ON FORM 8A;
COMMISSION FILE NO. 001-13639
Ladies and Gentlemen
On behalf of the Registrant we respectfully request to withdraw the Form
8-A Registration Statement filed on their behalf pursuant to Section 12b on
November 19, 1997. The Registrant intends to re-file a Form 8-A Registration
Statement pursuant to Section 12g, as a result of deciding to apply to have
the applicable securities quoted on Nasdaq rather than the American Stock
Exchange.
Please contact me with any comments, questions or concerns.
Very truly yours,
/s/ David A. Fisher
