ISS ENDORSES WALLACE'S DIRECTOR NOMINEES
November 1, 1996
Dear Shareholder:
Earlier this week, Institutional Shareholder Services - a shareholder
advisory firm - issued its voting recommendations pertaining to the issues
that will be voted upon at the annual meeting - only days away.
ISS has recommended that shareholders vote FOR Wallace's director nominees,
and also recommended a vote AGAINST Mr. Wyser-Pratte's proposal to opt out of
the Delaware Business Combination Statute.
The only item on Wyser-Pratte's agenda that ISS supported was his tender
offer by-law. WE CONTINUE TO STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU VOTE AGAINST THIS
PROPOSAL. We have previously outlined for you the significant problems and
negative effects this by-law is likely to have on the value of your
investment in Wallace. Additionally, we have strong conviction that it is
invalid under Delaware law, and voting for it will only encourage Mr.
Wyser-Pratte to continue harassing the company.
We ask that you please take this last opportunity to execute a WHITE
management proxy card and vote FOR Wallace's nominees for directors and
AGAINST Wyser-Pratte's by-law proposals.
Thank you for your continued support.
Sincerely,
TED DIMITRIOU BOB CRONIN
Chairman of the Board President and CEO
VOTING INSTRUCTIONS
-------------------
1. VOTE EACH WHITE PROXY CARD RECEIVED since each account must be voted
separately. Only your latest dated proxy counts. Even if you have sent
a gold proxy card to Mr. Wyser-Pratte, you have every right to change
your vote. You may revoke that proxy, and vote for the Board's nominees, by
signing, dating and mailing the enclosed WHITE proxy in the enclosed
envelope.
2. DATE YOUR PROXY CARD.
3. SIGN YOUR PROXY CARD exactly as your name appears on the mailing label.
4. MAIL YOUR PROXY CARD TODAY.

2. Copy both sides of the proxy card.
