VIA FACSIMILE & REGULAR MAIL

October 6, 1998

Mr. Thomas A. Keith
President and CEO
Compare Generiks, Inc.
300 Oser Avenue
Hauppauge, NY  11788

Dear Mr. Keith:

The purpose of my letter is to bring to your attention a concern regarding the
continued listing of Compare Generiks, Inc.'s shares of common stock (COGE) on
The Nasdaq SmallCap Market. Based upon the staff's review of the price data
covering the last thirty consecutive trade dates, your Company's shares of
common stock have failed to maintain a closing bid price greater than or equal
to $1.00. To be eligible for continued listing, all securities, the Company's
shares of common stock, must maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00.(1)

We recognize this deficiency may be a temporary situation, and no delisting
action with respect to the bid price deficiency will be initiated at this
time. Instead, the Company will be provided ninety (90) calendar days in which
to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement.(2)  If at anytime
within the next ninety calendar days from the date of this letter, the shares
of common stock reports a closing bid price of $1.00 or greater for ten
consecutive trading days, it will have complied with the minimum bid price
requirement.

However, if the Company is unable to demonstrate compliance with the minimum
$1.00 bid price on or before the end of the ninety day period January 6, 1999,
the Company's securities will be subject to delisting, effective with the
close of business on January 6, 1999. To stay the delisting, the Company may
request a hearing by the close of business on January 6, 1999. For more
information on the hearing process, please contact the Listing Qualifications
Hearing Department at (202) 496-2635.


- --------
(1) Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(04).
(2) The ninety day period relates exclusively to the bid price deficiency. The
Company may be delisted during the ninety day period for failure to maintain
compliance with any other listing requirement for which it is currently on
notice or which occurs during the period.

If you have any questions, concerning the compliance issues discussed above,
please call me at (800) 955-8109.

Very truly yours,

s/ Marilyn Bacot
