Dear Mr. Peklenk:

This is a follow up to our telephone conversation last week regarding the Staff's comment letter dated September 16, 2005 addressed to Mr. Jean-Claude Leroy, Chief Financial Officer of Sanofi-Aventis. As we discussed, this firm acts as special United States counsel to Sanofi-Aventis and this letter is being sent on their behalf.

This letter is to confirm that, as we discussed, Sanofi-Aventis is in the process of gathering information responsive to the Staff's September 16, 2005 comment letter and intends to respond to the Staff's comment letter in mid-October.

Please do not hesitate to contact me at (212) 403-1309 if you have any questions.

Very truly yours,
/s/ David A. Katz
