Attachment I
Fab Industries, Inc.
Form 12b-25
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the Fiscal Year Ended November 29, 1997
Part III
Registrant's annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 29,
1997 (the "Form 10-K") was completed for filing on the date on which such report
was required to be filed. However, due to the illness and hospitalization of the
head operator of our counsel's EDGAR filing deparment, the Company's Form 10-K
inadvertently was not filed on such date. The Registrant has subsequently filed
the Form 10-K on March 2, 1998, which date is within the grace period provided
for under Rule 12b-25.
