The recent papers (6), (7) of J. T. Marti have revived interest in the concept of extended bases, introduced in (1) by M. G. Arsove and R. E. Edwards. In the present note, two results are established which involve this idea. The first of these, which is given in a more general setting, restricts the behaviour of the coefficients for an extended basis in a certain type of locally convex space. The second result extends the well-known weak basis theorem (1, Theorem 11).
