Re: Electropharmacology, Inc.
File No. 0-25828; Form 8-K filed May 7, 1997
--------------------------------------------
Gentlemen:
On behalf of Electropharmacology, Inc. ("Company"), enclosed for filing
is Amendment No. 1 to the Company's Form 8-K dated May 7, 1997 and previously
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission") on May 7, 1997
pursuant to Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
A confidential treatment request for certain portions of the Form 8-K
("CTR") was filed with the Commission by the Company on May 7, 1997. Subsequent
to that date, the Company received a letter from the Staff of the Commission
dated May 21, 1997, advising that the exhibit index of the public copy of the
Form 8-K filed on May 7, 1997, should indicate that certain portions of the
exhibit have been omitted based upon the CTR. Amendment No. 1 therefore amends
the Form 8-K to indicate in the exhibit index that certain portions of the
exhibit have been omitted based upon a request for confidential treatment.
In addition, the name of one of the parties in the document forming the
exhibit had been inadvertently misstated. Accordingly, the reference to the
party in the exhibit index of the Form 8 K/A has been revised. The exhibit
itself has not been re-filed as the change is not deemed to be material.
Please contact either myself at (214) 969-3705 or Fiona Arnold at (214)
969-4845 if you have any questions or if we can be of any further assistance.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Richard K. Kneipper
