Dear Mr. Windsor:
This letter confirms our telephone conversation earlier today in which I requested, on behalf of Valley National Bancorp, an extension of time to respond to the above-referenced comments.
We agreed that the comment responses would be submitted no later than Wednesday, November 28, 2007.
Thank you for your understanding.
Respectfully,
/s/ Robinson Markel |
