On August 12, 1996, Augat Inc. (the "Registrant") filed a Registration
Statement on Form S-8, Registration No. 333-09973 (the "Registration
Statement"), to register 1,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.10 per
share of the Registrant ("Shares"), to be issued pursuant to the Registrant's
1996 Stock Plan (the "Plan"). Between August 12, 1996 and the date hereof 40,298
Shares have been issued pursuant to the Plan. On December 11, 1996 pursuant to a
merger (the "Merger") of a wholly owned subsidiary of Thomas & Betts
Corporation, a Tennessee corporation ("T&B") merged with and into the
Registrant. As a result of the Merger, the Registrant became a wholly owned
subsidiary of T&B. The Plan has been terminated and as a result no additional
Shares will be issued pursuant to the Plan. The Registration Statement is hereby
amended to remove from registration the remaining 959,702 Shares which remain
unissued thereunder.
