               RE: Nexar Technologies, Inc.
                   ------------------------

Dear Ms. Cunningham:

       On behalf of Nexar Technologies,  Inc. (the "Company"), this letter is to
request  withdrawal of the  registration  statement  filed on Form 8-A under the
Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934 by the  Company on January  13, 1997 (File No.
000-21965)(Accession No.  0000922409-97-000003)(the  "Registration  Statement").
The  reason  that  the  Company  seeks  an order  permitting  withdrawal  of the
Registration Statement is to prevent effectiveness of the Registration Statement
due to lapse of time.

       The  Company  intends to file a new  registration  statement  on Form 8-A
sometime next week in connection  with the initial public offering of its common
stock currently scheduled for the first week in April.

       If  you  have  any  questions  or  comments,   please   telephone  me  at
(617)248-4032.
 

                                        Sincerely,

                                        /s/ Dilia M. Caballero
                                        ----------------------
                                        Dilia M. Caballero
