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.
