Re: WHX Corporation Registration Statement on Form S-3
Filed on August 1, 1994 (File No. 33-54831)
Ladies and Gentlemen:
This letter amends the request by WHX Corporation (the "Company") to
withdraw, pursuant to Rule 477 of Regulation C of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-3, together with all
exhibits thereto, filed on August 1, 1994 (File No. 33-54831). The filing
registered $550,000,000 of securities, of which $175,000,000 of preferred stock
was issued in September 1994. At the present time, the Company has determined
not to proceed with the sale and registration of additional securities covered
under the Registration Statement, based on its belief that such sale and
registration would not be in the best interests of the Company.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the
undersigned, Adam Finerman or Steve Wolosky at (212) 753-7200.
Sincerely yours,
/s/ Stewart Tabin
