Re: WORK INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION ("WORK")
Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-58925)
("Registration Statement")
Gentlemen:
Reference is hereby made to the above-referenced Registration Statement on
Form S-1 which was initially filed by WORK with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") on July 10, 1998, in connection with WORK's
proposed initial public offering.
Pursuant to Rule 477 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, WORK hereby makes application to withdraw the Registration Statement,
together with all exhibits and amendments thereto. WORK has determined not to
proceed at this time with the proposed initial public offering described in the
Registration Statement due to volatile and adverse market conditions and the
expiration of the agreements to acquire the Founding Companies (as defined in
the Registration Statement). WORK has not sold any of the shares covered by the
Registration Statement. WORK's management believes that the Commission's
approval of this application would be consistent with the public interest and
the protection of the investors.
Please provide WORK with a copy of the order granting withdrawal of the
Registration Statements when available. If you have any questions regarding the
above matters, please call me at
(713) 228-9675.
Very truly yours,
WORK INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION
