PROSPECTUS
   
                                2,346,813 Shares
    

                              TII INDUSTRIES, INC.

                                  Common Stock

   
           This  Prospectus   relates  to  an  aggregate  of  2,346,813   shares
(collectively,  the "Shares") of Common Stock, $.01 par value per share ("Common
Stock"),  of TII Industries,  Inc. ("TII" or the "Company") which may be offered
and sold  from time to time  by  the  Selling  Stockholders  named  herein.  See
"Selling  Stockholders".  Such  Shares:  (a)  were  purchased  (i) in a  private
placement of the Company's securities in August 1992 (the "Private  Placement"),
(ii) upon the  exercise  of  Warrants to  purchase  Common  Stock  issued in the
Private  Placement  (the  "Warrants"),  (iii) upon the exercise of Unit Purchase
Options  ("UPOs") issued to designated  employees of M.H.  Meyerson & Co., Inc.,
which acted as placement agent for the Private Placement (the "Placement Agent")
or (iv) upon the  exercise of the  warrants  which  comprised a part of the UPOs
(the "UPO Warrants");  or (b) may be purchased by the holders of certain options
granted  to  WinStar  Services,  Inc.  ("Services")  pursuant  to  a  Consulting
Agreement  originally entered into in connection with the Private Placement (the
"WinStar Options"). See "Private Placement".
    

   
           The Shares may be offered for sale from  time to time  by the Selling
Stockholders,  or their  pledgees,  donees,  transferees or other  successors in
interest, in the over-the-counter  market, in privately negotiated  transactions
or otherwise at market prices  prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related
to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. The Shares may be sold
directly  by  the  Selling  Stockholders  or  through  brokers  or  dealers.  In
connection  with any such  sales,  Selling  Stockholders  and brokers or dealers
participating in such sales may be deemed  "underwriters"  within the meaning of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("1933 Act"). See "Plan of Distribution".
The  Shares  covered  by  this  Prospectus  may  also  be sold  under  Rule  144
promulgated  under the 1933 Act,  including  paragraph (k) thereof ("Rule 144"),
instead of under this  Prospectus,  to the extent Rule 144 is available for such
sale.
    

   
           The Company will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the
Shares by the Selling  Stockholders  (although the Company received an aggregate
of $18,505,000  in the Private  Placement and upon the exercise of the Warrants,
UPOs and UPO  Warrants  issued to the  Selling  Stockholders  and others and may
receive up to  $2,312,500  if the WinStar  Options are  exercised in full).  The
Company will bear all expenses in connection with the filing of the Registration
Statement  of which  this  Prospectus  forms a part,  except  that  the  Selling
Stockholders  will pay all discounts and commissions  payable to  broker-dealers
and the fees and expenses, if any, of counsel to the Selling Stockholders.

                                   THE COMPANY

   
           TII is a  leading  supplier  to  United  States  telephone  operating
companies ("Telcos") of overvoltage surge protectors. Overvoltage protectors are
required  by  the  National   Electric  Safety  Code  to  be  installed  on  the
subscriber's  (user's)  home or  office  telephone  lines to  prevent  injury to
telecommunication  users  and  damage  to  telecommunication  equipment  due  to
overvoltage   surges  caused  by  lightning  and  other   hazardous   electrical
occurrences.  The Company's  other products  include network  interface  devices
("NIDs") and station  electronics,  which may be  incorporated  in NIDs together
with the Company's overvoltage  protectors.  Further,  during the fiscal quarter
ended December 31, 1993 the Company introduced a line of fiber optic products in
order to participate in the growing fiber optic market.  The Company markets its
products, directly or indirectly, to the seven Regional Bell Operating Companies
("RBOCs") and GTE Corporation  ("GTE"),  which collectively  service over 85% of
the 140 million subscriber lines in the United States, as well as to most of the
1,300 smaller Telcos.
    

           The Company is a Delaware  corporation  organized  in 1971 and is the
successor to a corporation  founded in 1964 by Alfred J. Roach,  Chairman of the
Board of Directors of the Company.  Unless the context otherwise  requires,  the
terms "TII" or the "Company" refer to TII Industries,  Inc., its predecessor and
its subsidiaries.

           The  Company's  principal  executive  office is located at 1385 Akron
Street,  Copiague,  New York 11726  (telephone  number (516)  789-5000)  and its
principal  operations  office is located at Rd. 165,  Kilometer  1.6,  Toa Alta,
Puerto Rico 00953 (telephone number (809) 870-2700).

   
                                  RISK FACTORS
    

           PROSPECTIVE  PURCHASERS  SHOULD REVIEW THE ENTIRE  PROSPECTUS AND THE
INFORMATION INCORPORATED HEREIN BY REFERENCE AND CAREFULLY CONSIDER, AMONG OTHER
THINGS,  THE FOLLOWING  FACTORS PRIOR TO MAKING AN INVESTMENT IN THE  SECURITIES
OFFERED HEREBY.

TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE

           The  Company  has  been   selling   overvoltage   surge   protectors,
incorporating  gas tube  technology,  as its  principal  product  since the late
1960s. These products are specified as a standard overvoltage  protector for the
subscriber's  telephone lines at five of the seven RBOCs, GTE and at most of the
1,300 smaller Telcos in the United  States.  Solid state surge  protectors  have
been  developed for use within the Telco network as a competitive  technology to
gas tubes.  While solid state  overvoltage  protectors are faster at reacting to
surges,  gas tube overvoltage  protectors have generally remained the subscriber
overvoltage  protection  technology of choice by virtually all Telcos because of
the gas tube's  ability to  repeatedly  withstand  significantly  higher  energy
surges (critical safety and maintenance considerations for Telcos), while adding
virtually no  capacitance  onto the  communication  line  (elevated  capacitance
adversely  affects the  transmission of data over a communication  line).  Solid
state  overvoltage  protectors are used  principally  in Telco's  central office
switching  centers  where speed is  perceived  to be more  critical  than energy
handling capabilities.  The Company is not aware of any significant improvements
(except for certain new gas tube products discussed below being developed by the
Company and a joint venture consisting of AT&T Network Cable Systems and Raychem
Corporation)  or  new  solid  state  protection  technology  under  development.
However,  the development of solid state  overvoltage  protectors with increased
energy  handling  capabilities  and low capacitance  could adversely  affect the
Company.

           There can be no  assurance  that the Company  will be  successful  in
marketing  its new  products or  developing  additional  new products to address
changing  technological  requirements,  that it can introduce such products on a
timely basis or that its existing  products will continue to be, or new products
will become, successful in the marketplace. The Company's failure to develop new
products or adapt its existing products to technological  change and competition
could have an adverse effect on the Company's business.



                                       -3-

EFFECT OF CERTAIN PURCHASE ORDER DEFERRALS

   
           Net sales and net  income for the first  quarter of fiscal  1996 were
$9,600,000 and $439,000,  respectively,  compared to  $10,456,000  and $536,000,
respectively,  in the first  quarter of fiscal 1995.  Toward the close of fiscal
1995,  the  Company  introduced  several  new  products,  which  will be jointly
manufactured with Access Network  Technologies  ("ANT"), a joint venture between
AT&T Network Cable Systems and Raychem Corporation. Two of the Company's current
Telco  customers have evaluated  these new products and have indicated that they
will approve them for use. As a result, during the first quarter of fiscal 1996,
these  customers  slowed their  purchase of other TII products to minimize their
inventory  levels in  anticipation of the  availability  and delivery of the new
products.  While limited  shipments are in process,  TII and ANT are  addressing
joint volume production start-up delays. The Company believes that attainment of
volume  production of the new products should begin at the Company's  facilities
during the second quarter of fiscal 1996 and volume  shipments  should  commence
soon after volume production begins.
    

FIBER OPTIC BUSINESS

   
           The Company has begun to develop  fiber optic cable  products used in
connection  with the  installation  and maintenance of fiber optic equipment and
transmission  lines.  The fiber optic  market is  characterized  by  innovation,
rapidly changing technology and new product development.  In addition,  although
TII has operated in the telecommunications  industry for more than 25 years, the
Company,   in  entering  into  the  fiber  optic  market,   faces  many  of  the
uncertainties  inherent in entering  into a new  business  area.  The  Company's
success in this area will depend, in large measure, upon its ability to identify
customer needs and develop new products to keep pace with continuing  changes in
technology and customer preferences.
    

COMPETITION

   
           While the  Company  is a  leading  supplier  to Telcos of  subscriber
overvoltage  protectors,  the Company is subject to significant competition with
respect to its protectors as well as its other  products.  Most of the Company's
competitors have substantially greater assets and financial resources,  and have
larger sales  forces,  manufacturing  facilities  and  research and  development
staffs than those of the Company.
    


DEPENDENCE UPON KEY CUSTOMERS; LACK OF LONG TERM COMMITMENTS

   
           Virtually  all of the  Company's  products are sold either  directly,
through  distributors  or as  components  of equipment  manufactured  by others,
including other NID suppliers, to the Telcos. The Telco industry is dominated by
a few  large  customers.  The  seven  RBOCs  and  GTE  service  over  85% of all
subscriber lines in the United States. The Company's overvoltage  protectors are
specified as a standard  overvoltage  protector for the  subscriber's  telephone
lines  at five of the  seven  RBOCs  and  GTE,  the loss of one or more of which
customers,  or a substantial  diminution in the orders received from them, could
materially and adversely  affect the Company.  For the year ended June 30, 1995,
direct sales to five RBOCs and GTE, known distributors thereto and manufacturers
who  are  known  to use  the  Company's  products  as  components  in  equipment
manufactured for these Telcos,  are believed to have accounted for a substantial
majority of the Company's net sales.
    

       

ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS

   
           Under  the  Company's  Restated  Certificate  of  Incorporation,  the
affirmative  vote of the  holders of at least 75% of the  Company's  outstanding
shares of capital  stock  entitled to vote thereon is required to authorize  any
merger or consolidation  of the Company or any of its subsidiaries  with another
entity,  or a sale, lease or exchange by the Company of all or substantially all
of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, if the other
party to the transaction  owns 10% or more of the Company's  voting stock in the
election  of  directors  (other than a person who was such holder on December 3,
1979),  or the  dissolution of the Company,  unless such merger,  consolidation,
sale, lease or exchange (or a dissolution  substantially  consistent  therewith)
was approved by the Company's Board of Directors prior to the other party to the
transaction acquiring such 10% interest.  Mr. Alfred J. Roach is the only person
known to have been a  beneficial  owner of 10% or more of the  Company's  voting
stock at December 3, 1979.  Also,  the Board of  Directors is divided into three
classes,  each of which is elected  in  successive  years for three year  terms.
Accordingly, any persons seeking to acquire voting control of the Company solely
through the  election of directors  would have to elect  directors at two annual
stockholders'
    
       
                                      -4-


<PAGE>



   
meetings in order to elect a majority of the Board.  Additionally,  the Restated
Certificate of Incorporation  permits the Company's directors to issue shares of
Preferred  Stock in one or more series and to designate the terms of each series
without  further  stockholder  action.  Each  of  these  provisions  may  render
impossible  any  attempts  by outside  persons or  business  concerns  to obtain
control of the Company in a manner  which might be in the best  interests of the
Company's stockholders.
    

       
SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

   
           Sales of a substantial number of shares of Common Stock in the public
market  could  adversely  affect the market  price for the Common  Stock.  As at
November 30, 1995, the Company had outstanding  7,076,008 shares of Common Stock
of which  4,372,780  shares  were  freely  tradeable  and  1,996,813  shares are
registered  under the 1933 Act for  resale  under  this  Prospectus  or  another
prospectus  or are  eligible  for sale  under  paragraph  (k) of Rule  144.  The
remaining 706,415 outstanding shares of Common Stock are held by persons who may
be deemed affiliates of the Company and are eligible for sale under Rule 144.

           Of the 2,732,481 shares of Common Stock reserved for potential future
issuance at November 30, 1995: (i) 400,000  Shares are registered  hereunder for
resale by the holders of the WinStar  Options  after any exercise  thereo;  (ii)
150,000 shares are registered for resale under a separate registration statement
following  any exercise of certain  options  granted to a consulting  firm;  and
(iii)  300,000  shares,   issuable  upon   conversion  of  certain   convertible
indebtedness,  are eligible for sale under  paragraph  (k) of Rule 144 following
such conversion.  The remaining  1,882,481  reserved shares are registered under
the 1933 Act for issuance  upon the exercise of options  which have been, or may
in the future be, granted under employee stock option plans.  Such  registration
enables persons exercising those options, who are not affiliates of the Company,
to freely sell the shares of Common Stock  acquired and those who are affiliates
to resell the shares  acquired  under Rule 144  without any  additional  holding
period.
    

       
           In  general,  Rule 144  enables a  stockholder  to sell,  within  any
three-month period, a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of 1% of
the then outstanding shares of Common Stock or the average weekly trading volume
during a specified four-week period in unsolicited  "broker's  transactions" and
subject  to  certain  other  conditions.  Paragraph  (k) of Rule 144  permits  a
stockholder  who has not been an  affiliate  of the  Company  during the 90 days
preceding a sale by such stockholder and who has  beneficially  owned the shares
to be sold for at least three years (including the holding period of convertible
securities)  to  sell  such  shares  without  regard  to the  volume  and  other
limitations otherwise imposed by Rule 144.

   
           No prediction can be made as to the effect, if any, that future sales
of shares of Common Stock, or the  availability  of additional  shares of Common
Stock for  future  sales,  will have on the  market  price of the  Common  Stock
prevailing  from time to time.  Sales of  substantial  amounts of Common  Stock,
including  shares  issuable  upon the  exercise of the WinStar  Options or other
options,  or  upon  conversion  of  certain  convertible  indebtedness  , or the
perception that such sales could occur,  could adversely affect the market price
for the Common Stock.
    

NO DIVIDENDS ANTICIPATED

   
           To date, the Company has paid no cash dividends.  For the foreseeable
future, the Company intends to retain all earnings generated from operations for
use in the Company's  business.  Additionally,  the Company's  Revolving  Credit
Agreement  prohibits the payment of dividends until such  indebtedness  has been
repaid in full.  Therefore,  no dividends to stockholders can be anticipated for
the foreseeable future.

                                PRIVATE PLACEMENT

GENERAL

           The Shares covered by this  Prospectus (i) were issued as part of the
Private  Placement,  upon the subsequent  exercise of Warrants or UPOs issued in
the Private  Placement or upon the  subsequent  exercise of UPO Warrants or (ii)
are issuable upon the exercise of the WinStar Options. Prior to the date of this
Prospectus,  an  aggregate  of  2,965,187  shares of Common  Stock issued in the
Private  Placement or upon exercise of the Warrants,  UPOs and UPO Warrants were
sold under a Prospectus dated August 10, 1994 or Rule 144.

PRIVATE PLACEMENT SHARES AND WARRANTS

   
           In August  1992,  the  Company  completed  the Private  Placement  of
2,200,000  shares of Common  Stock and  Warrants  to  purchase a like  number of
shares of Common  Stock.  The shares of Common Stock and Warrants were issued in
units with a purchase price of $2.50 for one share and one Warrant. The Warrants
entitled the holders  thereof to purchase Common Stock at any time and from time
to time  until  August 6, 1995 at an  exercise  price of $5.00  per  share.  The
closing price of the Company's  Common Stock on the American Stock Exchange (the
exchange  upon which the  Company's  Common  Stock was then listed) on August 7,
1992, the closing date of the Private Placement was $3.44 per share. The Company
granted  to all  purchasers  of the Common  Stock and  Warrants  in the  Private
Placement  certain rights until August 6, 1997 to cause the securities  acquired
(and shares of Common Stock  underlying  the Warrants) to be registered for sale
under the 1933 Act, at the Company's cost and expense,  except  commissions  and
legal fees of the holders. All of the Warrants have been exercised.
    

           Included in such shares of Common Stock and Warrants was the issuance
to Alfred J.  Roach,  Chairman  of the Board of the  Company,  Timothy J. Roach,
President and a director of the Company, and another employee of the Company, of
200,000, 100,000 and 100,000 shares of Common Stock, respectively,  and Warrants
to purchase a like number of shares of Common Stock in exchange for 5,000, 2,500
and 2,500 shares,  respectively,  of the  Company's  then  outstanding  Series B
Preferred  Stock which they had purchased  for $500,000,  $250,000 and $250,000,
respectively,  on February 25,  1992.  The balance of the shares of Common Stock
and Warrants were issued for cash to persons then unaffiliated with the Company,
including  Timothy  R.  Graham and a company  affiliated  with  Services  (which
company  subsequently  transferred  such shares of Common  Stock and Warrants to
William J. Rouhana,  Jr. and Timothy R. Graham) purchasers of 30,000 and 180,000
shares of Common  Stock and  Warrants  to  purchase  a like  number of shares of
Common Stock,  respectively.  Messrs. Rouhana and Graham became directors of the
Company  following the  completion of the Private  Placement.  Mr.  Rouhana is a
principal of Services.  Mr.  Graham is Executive  Vice  President of and General
Counsel to Services.

    
UPO SHARES AND UPO WARRANTS

           For its  services  in the  Private  Placement,  the  Placement  Agent
received a commission  of $430,000 and a  non-accountable  expense  allowance of
$60,000. In addition,  certain of the Placement Agent's employees purchased, for
nominal  consideration,  UPOs,  exercisable between August 7, 1993 and August 6,
1997,  entitling them to purchase an aggregate of 256,000 shares of Common Stock
and the same number of UPO Warrants. Each UPO was exercisable at $2.833 per unit
and consisted of one share of Common Stock and one UPO Warrant. Each UPO Warrant
was identical to the Warrants  issued in the Private  Placement.  As a result of
such arrangements, the Placement Agent may be considered an "underwriter" within
the meaning of the 1933 Act and such  compensation  may be deemed  "underwriting
compensation." See "Selling Stockholders". The Company granted to the holders of
the UPOs certain  rights until August 6, 1997 to cause the Common Stock issuable
upon  exercise of the UPOs and shares of Common Stock  issuable upon exercise of
the UPO Warrants to be  registered  for sale under the 1933 Act at the Company's
cost and expense,  except commissions and legal fees of the holders.  All of the
UPOs and the UPO Warrants have been exercised.

WINSTAR OPTIONS
    

           In connection with the Private Placement,  the Company entered into a
Consulting  Agreement  dated  June 2, 1992  (the  "Consulting  Agreement")  with
Services  which became  effective on August 7, 1992 with the  completion  of the
Private Placement.

   
           Under the Consulting  Agreement , as amended,  between August 7, 1992
and July 28, 1995, Services received a monthly fee of $7,500 and additional fees
based upon the value of certain  types of  transactions  if  consummated  by the
Company.  In fiscal  1995,  in  addition to its monthly  fee,  the Company  paid
Service  $80,000 in connection  with the  Company's  entering into an $8,000,000
Revolving  Credit Loan  Agreement  with a commercial  bank in January  1995.  In
addition, in connection with entering into the Consulting Agreement, the Company
granted  to  Services  options  to  purchase  400,000  shares of  Common  Stock,
exercisable  during a three-year period commencing  February 7, 1993 as follows:
(a) 200,000  shares at $5.00 per share;  (b) 60,000  shares at $5.625 per share;
(c) 60,000 shares at $6.25 per share;  and (d) 80,000 shares at $7.50 per share.
Services  has been granted the right to  "piggyback"  the options and the shares
underlying the options on each registration  statement (with certain exceptions)
filed by the Company under the 1933 Act for the sale of the Company's securities
until  August 6, 1997 . The Company has also agreed to register  the options and
the  shares of Common  Stock  issuable  upon  exercise  of the  options,  on one
occasion,  upon the demand  made  prior to August 7, 1997 by a  majority  of the
holders of the options and the underlying shares,  taken in the aggregate.  Such
registration  statements would be at the Company's cost and expense,  except for
commissions and legal fees of the then holders.  These options were subsequently
transferred by Services to Messrs.  William J. Rouhana,  Jr.,  Timothy R. Graham
and a third person.

    

       

                              SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

   
           The following table sets forth information,  as at November 15, 1995,
(i) each Selling  Stockholder's  beneficial  ownership of the  Company's  Common
Stock prior to the offering of any Shares  hereunder,  (ii) the number of Shares
which may be offered for sale  hereunder by such Selling  Stockholder  and (iii)
the number of shares of the Company's  Common Stock to be beneficially  owned by
such Selling  Stockholder  after the offering  (assuming  the sale of all Shares
being offered hereunder,  but no sale of other securities  beneficially owned by
such  Selling  Stockholder).  Shares of  Common  Stock to be  Offered  Hereunder
represent  (i) Shares  issued in the Private  Placement and upon any exercise of
the  Warrants,  the UPOs and UPO  Warrants  (to the extent not sold prior to the
date hereof) and (ii) Shares which may be acquired  upon exercise of the WinStar
Options.

           Under  applicable rules of the Commission,  a Selling  Stockholder is
deemed to  beneficially  own,  in addition to  outstanding  shares  beneficially
owned,  shares which such person has the right to acquire within sixty days (for
example, through the exercise of the WinStar Options or employee stock options).
Thus,  such shares,  although  not  presently  outstanding,  are included in the
shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by a Selling Stockholder,  both before
and (to the  extent  not  included  in  Shares  of  Common  Stock to be  Offered
Hereunder) after the offering.  The shares so included for a particular  Selling
Stockholder are deemed outstanding Common Stock for the purpose of computing the
percentage of the Company's outstanding Common Stock that would be
    


                                       -7-

beneficially  owned by such person (but for no other Selling  Stockholder).  All
information with respect to stock ownership has been furnished to the Company by
or on behalf of the respective Selling Stockholders.

                          DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

   
           The  authorized  capital stock of the Company  consists of 30,000,000
shares of Common Stock,  10,000,000  shares of Class B Stock, $.01 par value per
share  ("Class B  Stock"), 100,000  shares of Class C Stock,  $.01 par value per
share ("Class C Stock"),  and  1,000,000  shares of Preferred  Stock,  $1.00 par
value per share, issuable in series ("Preferred Stock").

           As of November 30, 1995, there were issued and outstanding  7,076,008
shares  of  Common  Stock  and no  shares  of  Class B  Stock,  Class C Stock or
Preferred  Stock were issued.  No Class B Stock can be issued unless  previously
approved by stockholders. Class C Stock and Preferred Stock can be issued by the
Board of Directors without the need to obtain stockholder approval.

           The  following  is a summary of certain  provisions  contained in the
Company's  Restated  Certificate  of  Incorporation  , as amended (the "Restated
Certificate of  Incorporation"),  By-Laws and  Revolving  Credit Loan Agreement,
copies  of which  are  exhibits  to the  Registration  Statement  of which  this
Prospectus  forms a part.  The summary  does not  purport to be complete  and is
qualified in its entirety by reference to such documents.

    

   
COMMON STOCK
    

   
           Voting Rights.  Under the Company's Restated  Certificate of Incorpo-
ration,  the holders of Common  Stock have one vote per share  outstanding.  The
Restated  Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws provide for classification of
the Board of Directors into three classes,  the directors of each class to serve
a  three-year   term,   and  allow  removal  of  directors  only  for  cause  by
stockholders.  In addition,  the Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation
requires the affirmative  vote of the holders of at least 75% of the outstanding
shares of capital stock of the Company entitled to vote thereon to authorize (i)
any merger or consolidation  of the Company or any of its  subsidiaries  with or
into another entity,  (ii) any sale,  lease or exchange of all or  substantially
all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole if, as of
the record date for determining stockholders entitled to vote on a matter in (i)
or (ii), the other party to the transaction beneficially owns 10% or more of the
Company's  outstanding  capital  stock  entitled  to  vote  in the  election  of
directors  (other  than a person  who  beneficially  owned  at least  10% of the
Company's  voting capital stock at December 3, 1979) or (iii) the dissolution of
the  Company.   The  supermajority  voting  requirement  does  not  apply  to  a
transaction  with a person or entity who became such 10% beneficial  owner after
the Company's  Board of Directors  approved the transaction in (i) or (ii) or as
to a dissolution of the Company if such dissolution is substantially  consistent
with such an approved transaction. The Restated Certificate of Incorporation and
By-Laws further provide that the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 75%
of the Company's  outstanding voting stock is required to make, alter or repeal,
or to adopt any provision  inconsistent  with,  the foregoing  provisions of the
Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws.

           Dividends and Other  Distributions.  Subject to the rights of holders
of any  Preferred  Stock,  the holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to
receive  dividends  when,  as and if declared by the Board of  Directors  out of
funds  legally  available  therefor  and,  in  the  event  of  the  liquidation,
dissolution  or  winding  up of the  Company,  to share  ratably  in all  assets
remaining  after the payment of  liabilities.  To date,  the Company has paid no
cash dividends.  For the foreseeable  future,  the Company intends to retain all
earnings   generated  from  operations  for  use  in  the  Company's   business.
Additionally,  the  Company's  Revolving  Credit Loan  Agreement  prohibits  the
payment of dividends until such indebtedness has been repaid in full. Therefore,
no dividends to stockholders can be anticipated for the foreseeable future.

           Other.  The Common Stock is not  convertible  into any other class of
securities, is  not redeemable and  does not carry any preemptive rights.
    

           Transfer Agent.  The transfer agent for the Company's Common Stock is
Harris Trust Company of New York, 77 Water Street, New York, New York 10005.

PREFERRED STOCK

           The Company's  Preferred Stock is issuable in one or more series from
time to time at the discretion of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors
is  authorized,   with  respect  to  each  series,  to  fix  by  resolution  its
designation,  powers,  preferences  (including  with respect to dividends and on
liquidation),  rights (including voting, dividend,  conversion, sinking fund and
redemption  rights),  qualifications,  limitations and  restrictions.  Shares of
Preferred  Stock issued by action of the Board of  Directors  could be utilized,
under certain circumstances, as a method of making it more difficult for a party
to gain control of the Company  without the approval of the Board of  Directors.
The  Company  presently  has no plans or  arrangements  for the  issuance of any
additional Preferred Stock.

CLASS B STOCK

           Since their  conversion  into Common Stock in September  1995,  there
have  been no  outstanding  shares  of Class B Stock,  and no  shares of Class B
Common Stock can be issued  without  prior  stockholder  approval.  The Restated
Certificate  of  Incorporation  provides  that any Class B Common Stock is to be
identical  to Common Stock except that shares of Class B Stock (i) would only be
entitled to dividends equal to 83-1/3% of the dividend  payable on Common Stock,
if any were  declared,  and (ii) would vote  together  with Common  Stock as one
class on all matters  except the election of  directors  and on matters on which
Delaware  law  requires a separate  vote of each such class,  with each share of
Common  Stock  having one vote and each share of Class B Stock having ten votes.
As to the  election  of  directors,  holders  of the  Common  Stock  would  vote
separately as a class for the election of 25% of the directors and, in addition,
vote  together  with the holders of Class B Stock as one class for the remainder
of the directors, with each share of Common Stock having one vote and each share
of Class B Stock  having  ten votes.  If,  however,  on the record  date for any
stockholder  meeting with respect to the  election of  directors,  the number of
outstanding  shares of Class B Stock is less that 12-1/2% of the aggregate total
number  of shares of Common  Stock and Class B Stock  then  outstanding,  Common
Stock  would vote  separately  as a class for the  election  of 25% of the total
number of directors of the entire Board of Directors and the Class B Stock would
vote separately as a class to elect the remaining directors.

           Class B Common  Stock would be  convertible  into  Common  Stock on a
share for share basis at any time at the option of the holder  automatically  if
the  number  of  outstanding  shares  of  Class B Stock  is less  than 5% of the
aggregate  number of issued and  outstanding  shares of Common Stock and Class B
Stock  or if  the  Board  of  Directors  and  holders  of  the  majority  of the
outstanding  shares of Class B Stock  authorize such  conversion.  Class B Stock
would  have  limited  rights  of  transferability  without  being  automatically
converted  into Common Stock on a share for share basis.  The Company  presently
has no plans or arrangements for the issuance of any Class B Stock.

CLASS C STOCK

   
           Class C Stock may be sold only to  employees  of the  Company who are
also residents of Puerto Rico.  Holders of any Class C Stock which may be issued
shall be entitled to receive,  when and as declared by the Board of Directors of
the Company,  non-cumulative  dividends at the rate of $2.00 per share per year,
and no more. The Company may, at the option of the Board of Directors, redeem in
whole or part any Class C Stock  which may be issued at any time by paying  $.01
for each share thereof, together with any dividends theretofore declared thereon
and remaining unpaid at the date of redemption.  Except as expressly required by
law,  any  future  holders  of the Class C Stock  would  have no  voting  power,
conversion rights into Common Stock, liquidation rights or preemptive rights.
    

SECTION 203 OF THE DELAWARE GENERAL CORPORATION LAW

   
           The  Company  is  subject to the  provisions  of  Section  203 of the
Delaware General Corporation Law. In general,  this statute prohibits a publicly
held Delaware  corporation  from  engaging,  under certain  circumstances,  in a
"business  combination"  with an "interested  stockholder" for a period of three
years after the person  becomes an interested  stockholders,  unless : (i) prior
to the time at which the stockholder became an interested stockholder, the board
of directors  approved  either the business  combination  or the  transaction in
which the person becomes an
                                                                            
                                      -11-

interested  stockholder;  (ii) the  stockholder  acquires  at  least  85% of the
outstanding voting stock of the corporation  (excluding shares held by directors
who are officers or held in certain  employee stock plans) upon  consummation of
the transaction in which the stockholder becomes an interested  stockholder;  or
(iii) the business  combination  is approved by the board of directors and by at
least  66-2/3% of the  outstanding  voting stock of the  corporation  (excluding
shares held by the interested stockholder) at a meeting of stockholders (and not
by written consent) held on or subsequent to the time such stockholder became an
interested  stockholder.  An "interested  stockholder" is a person who, together
with  affiliates and associates  (each as defined in Section 203),  owns (or, in
certain cases,  at any time within the prior three years did own) 15% or more of
the  corporation's  voting stock.  Section 203 defines a "business  combination"
generally to include, without limitation, mergers, consolidations,  stock sales,
asset-based transactions and other transactions resulting in a financial benefit
to the interested stockholders.
    

                              PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

   
           The Shares may be offered for sale, from time to time, by the Selling
Stockholders,  or by their pledgees,  donees, transferees or other successors in
interest, in the over-the-counter  market, in privately negotiated  transactions
or otherwise at market prices  prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related
to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated  prices. The Shares covered by
this  Prospectus  may also be sold  under  Rule  144  (including  paragraph  (k)
thereof)  instead of under this  Prospectus,  to the extent  available  for such
sale.  Shares under this  Prospectus may be sold by one or more of the following
methods:  (a) ordinary  brokerage  transactions  and  transactions  in which the
broker  solicits  purchasers;  (b) purchases by a broker or dealer as principal,
and the  resale by such  broker  or  dealer  for its  account  pursuant  to this
Prospectus,  including resale to another broker or dealer;  (c) a block trade in
which the broker or dealer so engaged  will  attempt to sell the Shares as agent
but may  position  and  resell a portion of the block as  principal  in order to
facilitate the  transaction;  or (d)  negotiated  transactions  between  Selling
Stockholders and purchasers  without a broker or dealer.  In connection with any
sales, a Selling  Stockholder and broker or dealer  participating  in such sales
may be deemed "underwriters" within the meaning of the 1933 Act. M.H. Meyerson &
Co., Inc., a registered  broker-dealer and member of the National Association of
Securities  Dealers,  and certain of its officers and  employees who are Selling
Stockholders may be deemed "underwriters".

           Brokers  or  dealers   selling  under  this  Prospectus  may  receive
commissions,   discounts  or  concessions  from  a  Selling  Stockholder  and/or
purchasers  of the Shares for whom such broker or dealers may act as agents,  or
to  whom  they  may  sell as  principal,  or both  (which  compensation  as to a
particular  broker or dealer  may be in excess of  customary  commissions).  The
Selling  Stockholders and any participating  brokers or dealers may be deemed to
be  "underwriters"  within the  meaning of the 1933 Act.  Any such  commissions,
discounts or  concessions  and any gain realized by such broker or dealer on the
sale  of  shares  which  it  purchases  as a  principal  may  be  deemed  to  be
underwriting compensation to the broker or dealer.
    

           The Selling Stockholders have been advised by the Company that during
the time each is engaged in distributing Shares covered by this Prospectus, each
must comply  with Rules  10b-5 and 10b-6  under the 1934 Act,  as  amended,  and
pursuant thereto: (i) may not engage in any stabilization activity in connection
with the  Company's  securities;  (ii) must  furnish each broker  through  which
Common Stock covered by this  Prospectus  may be offered the number of copies of
this Prospectus which are required by each broker;  and (iii) may not bid for or
purchase  any  securities  of the  Company  or  attempt  to induce any person to
purchase any of the Company's  securities other than as permitted under the 1934
Act.  Any  Selling  Stockholder  who  may be an  "affiliated  purchaser"  of the
Company,  as defined in Rule 10b-6,  have been further  advised that pursuant to
Securities  Exchange  Act  Release  34-23611  (September  11,  1986),  they must
coordinate their sales under this Prospectus with each other and the Company for
purposes of Rule 10b-6.

                                  LEGAL MATTERS

   
           The  validity of the Common Stock  offered  hereby was passed upon by
