Abstract: We study a supergauge transformation of a complex superfield which generates a chiral superfield in two-dimensional $calN=(2,2)$ theory. This complex superfield is referred to as the prepotential of the chiral superfield. Since there exist redundant component fields in the prepotential, we remove some of them by a gauge-fixing condition. This situation is parallel to that of a vector superfield. In order to obtain a suitable configuration of the GLSM for the exotic five-brane which gives rise to a nongeometric background, we impose a relatively relaxed gauge-fixing condition. It turns out that the gauge-fixed prepotential is different from a semichiral superfield whose scalar field represents a coordinate of generalized K"{a}hler geometry.
