Re:
Comment Letter—GlaxoSmithKline plc (“GSK”) Annual Report on Form 20-F for 2012
Dear Mr. Rosenberg:
We appreciated the opportunity to speak with your colleague Sasha Parikh today in connection with the comment letter dated May 14, 2013 relating to GSK’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for 2012. As requested, this is a brief note to indicate that GSK intends to respond to the comments by June 11, 2013.
The preparation of a response to staff comment letters typically involves a number of GSK business, financial and legal personnel, 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.
Mr. Jim B. Rosenberg, p. 2

Yours sincerely,
/s/ Sebastian R. Sperber
