Question \n after EOF

Hello all,
I have unix file that ends with the following EOF '9999999999'
I want to remove the '\n' character after EOF. What is the command that should be included in the script, before sending the file?
will this work:
$ echo "<99999999999>\c" >> <filename>

thanks in advance.
