Dear Len:
For nearly seven years, I have been a director of Aceto Corporation. I
consider it an honor and privilege to be on Aceto's board.
However, I have made a decision to resign from the board effective December 15,
1999. My rationale is based on my medical considerations, which did not exist
when I first joined the board in 1993.
I wish you, the board of directors and the company continued success.
Yours respectfully,
/s/ Stephen M. Goldstein
