  We present results of the ASCA observation of the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 4507.
The 0.5-10 keV spectrum is rather complex and consists of several components:
(1) a hard X-ray power law heavily absorbed by a column density of about 3
10^23 cm^-2, (2) a narrow Fe Kalpha line at 6.4 keV, (3) soft continuum
emission well above the extrapolation of the absorbed hard power law, (4) a
narrow emission line at about 0.9 keV. The line energy, consistent with highly
ionized Neon (NeIX), may indicate that the soft X-ray emission derives from a
combination of resonant scattering and fluorescence in a photoionized gas. Some
contribution to the soft X-ray spectrum from thermal emission, as a blend of Fe
L lines, by a starburst component in the host galaxy cannot be ruled out with
the present data.
