In order to explain the neutron monitor data during the 1991 June 4 X12.0 solar flare we have to consider two long duration ejection periods of high energy neutrons, starting approximately at 03:37 and 04:12 UT. The existence of a second acceleration episode separated by about 30 minutes from the impulsive phase of the flare is supported by the gamma-ray and microwave observations. Assuming that the total number of neutrons in 0.1-3 GeV energy range is proportional to the gamma-line intensity, estimations of neutron spectra can be made during the first production episode where the gamma-ray data are available. But we have to use the similarity between the general trends of microwave and high-energy gamma emission to obtain the neutron spectrum during the second production episode. The spectrum during the first ejection have appeared to be softer than that of the second ejection.
