Re: Comment Letter—GlaxoSmithKline PLC (“GSK”) Annual Report on Form 20-F for 2005
Dear Mr. Rosenberg:
We appreciate the opportunity to speak with your colleague Sasha Parikh yesterday in connection with the comment letter dated September 19, 2006 relating to GSK’s Annual Report for 2005. As requested, this is a brief note to indicate that GSK intends to respond to the comments by October 31, 2006.
Although the comments are not extensive, the preparation of appropriate responses will require the involvement of a number of GSK executives and financial and legal department staff, as well as members of the GSK audit team from PricewaterhouseCoopers and outside counsel. Arranging for this involvement in order to meet the requested deadline would be difficult, particularly given the fact that GSK will shortly be in the midst of preparing its third quarter results.
