To the Stockholders of United Industrial Corporation:
We recently mailed to you the Proxy Statement for the Annual Meeting of
Stockholders of United Industrial Corporation ("UIC") to be held on May 8, 1995,
together with a white proxy card. Enclosed is a revised blue proxy card, which
should be used in lieu of the white card which inadvertently contained certain
incorrect information with respect to the voting on proposal 3 where no
Stockholder instruction is given. If you have already returned the white card,
it will be disregarded. Please sign, date and return the enclosed blue proxy
card to ensure that your shares are voted. A return envelope which requires no
postage if mailed in the United States, is enclosed for your convenience.
