PART I
ITEM ONE - BUSINESS

THE COMPANY
Vertex Computer Cable & Products, Inc., formerly VTX Electronics Corp. (the 
"Company") through its wholly-owned Vertex Technologies, Inc. subsidiary 
("Vertex") is a multi-regional manufacturer of custom-made electronic cable 
assemblies used in providing connectivity solutions. The Company designs 
specifically to meet individual customer's unique and complete connectivity 
requirements.

Management believes that the Company's technical ability for providing 
connectivity solutions between the data system capabilities of many 
manufacturers and the specific connectivity needs of its customers, along with 
its reputation for providing manufactured, custom-made electronic cable 
assemblies that are subject to 100% quality control testing, will be the 
principal factors on which the Company will plan its future growth.The Company 
expects internal growth to be enhanced by what the Company perceives to be three
continuing trends:  (i) the increasing demand for data communications to provide
timely information in the office environment and factory floor that requires 
connectivity solutions; and (ii) the growing number of alternatives available to
organizations of all sizes in all types of industries to increase productivity 
through improved or upgraded computer data communications.
The Company's executive offices are located at 920 Conklin Street, Farmingdale,
New York 11735 and its telephone number is (516) 293-1610.  Unless the context 
requires otherwise, all references herein to the Company and Vertex mean Vertex
Computer Cable & Products, Inc.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
On January 10, 1997, the Company (the "Debtor") filed petitions for relief under
Chapter 11 of the federal bankruptcy laws in the United States Bankruptcy Court 
for the Eastern District of New York.  Under Chapter 11, certain claims against
the Debtor in existence prior to the filing of the petitions for relief under 
the federal bankruptcy laws are stayed while the Debtor continues business 
operations as Debtor-in-possession.  Additional claims (liabilities subject to 
compromise) may arise subsequent to the filing date resulting from rejection of 
executory contracts, including leases, and from the determination by the courts
(or agreed to by parties in interest) of allowed claims for contingencies and 
other disputed amounts.  Claims secured against the Debtor's assets ("secured 
claims") also are stayed, although the holders of such claims have the right to
move the court for relief from the stay.  Secured claims are secured primarily 
by liens on the Debtor's property, plant and equipment, accounts receivables and
inventories.

On January 10, 1997, TW Cable LLC,  ("TW"), concluded a transaction with the 
holders of the Company's preferred stock and debentures pursuant to the terms of
a certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Securities Purchase Agreement"). 
As a result of that transaction, TW acquired all of the issued and outstanding 
preferred stock (12,375 shares)  and $2,615,000 principal face amount of 
debentures,together with warrants to purchase 53,350,000 shares of common stock,
for a total purchase price of $1,100,000.  The preferred stock was convertible 
into 4,950,000 shares of common stock at a conversion rate equal to 400 common 
shares for each share of preferred stock that is converted.  Each share of 
preferred stock is entitled to 1,500 votes on all matter other than the election
of directors.  The holders of the preferred stock, as a class, are entitled to 
elect 75% of the members of the Board of Directors.

Effective with the signing of the Securities Purchase Agreement, Mr. Ed 
Goodstein, owner of TW, was elected as Chairman of the Board of Directors, and 
Mr. Carl Palazzolo, also of TW, was elected as a Director.  These elections  
filled the vacancies created by the resignations of Mr. Marshall Butler, Mr. 
Hiro Hiranandani, Mr. Ivor Jacobson, Mr. Paul Lowell and Mr. Ken Rind. 
                                   -3-

On December 20, 1996, the Company sold its 45,000 square foot corporate 
headquarters in Farmingdale, NY to an unaffiliated third party.  The Company 
used proceeds of approximately $1,900,000 to retire the first and second 
mortgages and a portion of the secured subordinated debentures, as described in
Notes E & H.  The Company recognized a loss of approximately $248,500 on the 
sale of the headquarters.  Further, the remaining proceeds from the sale were 
used to retire $750,000 of subordinated debentures. On May 7, 1997, the Company
entered into an agreement that was subject to Bankruptcy Court approval,  with 
TW, (the "Asset Purchase Agreement") pursuant to which TW would acquire the 
Company's Distribution Business and all of its assets used in connection with 
the Distribution Business.  The purchase price was $500,000.  The payment of  
$500,000 was allocated to all distribution intangible assets and fixed assets.  
The agreement entitles TW to purchase the Company's distribution inventory for 
an amount equal to 82.5% of the book value over a one year period.  Pursuant to
the Asset Purchase Agreement, TW agreed to assume certain Leases of the 
Company.  On June 26, 1997 the closing of the Asset Purchase Agreement took 
place.  TW assumed three (3) locations, including all employees of these 
locations.  

On May 29, 1997, the Board appointed Mr. Edward Goodstein as its new Chief 
Executive Officer and  Mr. Al Roth agreed to step down in favor of the election
of Mr. Goodstein.  Mr. Roth will serve as a consultant  to Mr. Goodstein.  The 
Board also appointed Mr. Howard Griffith as its new President and Director, and 
Mr. Ron Martyn as a Director.

On July 18, 1997, the Company filed its plan of reorganization and disclosure 
statement (the "Plan") with the United States Bankruptcy Courts in Westbury, 
New York. The Plan called for an initial distribution to all unsecured creditors
of 13.5% for each allowed claim and future distributions based on cash flow over
the next five years.  Under the proposed reorganization, the Company's wholly 
owned subsidiary, Vertex Technologies, Inc., would be merged into the Company, 
and the Company would change its name to Vertex Computer Cable & Products.  Upon
implementation of the proposed plan, 25.3 million of the Company's 40 million 
authorized shares of common stock would be issued and outstanding.  Each five 
shares of the Company's common stock currently outstanding would be exchanged 
for one share of the surviving entity.  As a result, holders of the Company's 
currently outstanding 12,652,000 shares would receive 2,530,000 post-
reorganization shares.  TW would receive 22.77 million shares, representing 90%
of the post-reorganization outstanding common stock.

On October 30, 1997, the United States Bankruptcy Court in Westbury, New York 
approved the Company's Plan of Reorganization.  The Company was required to have
in place exit financing in order for the Company to effectuate the Plan and 
emerge from Chapter 11.  On January 12, 1998, the Company closed with its' 
existing Credit Facility Congress Financial Corp.   Congress in effect extended
its Credit facility, which expired on January 10, 1998,  for a period of three 
months.  TW provided additional cash collateral of $500,000 in order for 
the Company to fund the Plan of Reorganization.













                                      -4-

BUSINESS STRATEGY
The Company's business strategy is to develop a value-added distribution network
through internal growth with a focus on connectivity solutions for data and 
tele-communications.  Management believes it will continue to (i) introduce 
new connectivity solutions, (ii) improve operating efficiencies through a more
efficient organizational structure, eliminate duplicated activities, and 
integrate manufacturing capabilities between the three separate manufacturing 
facilities located in the United States, (iii) derive the benefits of critical 
mass through the opportunity to develop stronger relationships with, and obtain 
improved terms from key suppliers, and (iv) derive the benefits of critical mass
through the ability to distribute to and service large national and 
international customers.
In its relationship with its customers, the Company focuses on providing 
connectivity solutions.  Such solutions include advising customers on the 
options available to meet their specific needs, and manufacturing custom-made 
electronic cable assemblies for the customers.  In addition, the Company 
continues to service the customers with components and assemblies as the 
customer's system grows.  Management believes that manufacturers of products 
generally choose to build relationships with distributorships capable of 
offering advisory services, technical support, and other services such as 
manufacturing custom-made electronic cable assemblies.  The Company believes it 
is perceived as a value-added manufacturer by both suppliers and customers as a 
result of its technical skills and knowledge of the marketplace, access to and 
understanding of the product capabilities,and technical design and manufacturing
capabilities for custom-made electronic cable assemblies.
PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
The Company's products and services consist principally of the design and 
manufacture of custom-made electronic cable assemblies and harnesses used as 
solutions for connectivity requirements in data communications.
The Company employs design, engineering, and technical support personnel to 
develop alternative connectivity solutions and manufacture of custom-made 
electronic cable assemblies.

PRINCIPAL SUPPLIERS
Management believes that the Company is not dependent on any particular 
supplier.  For the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997,  Lucent Technologies 
(formerly AT&T), Westcon, Inc., Madison Wire & Cable Corp., Hitachi Cable and 
Amp, Inc. accounted for 28.6%, 13.0%, 10.5%, 10.3%, 10.2% and 10.1%, 
respectively.  For the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995, purchases from Lucent 
accounted for 15.7%. Through stock rotation rights and price protection 
arrangements with most of its major suppliers, the Company can reduce the risk
of holding obsolete or over-priced product.  Stock rotation rights allow 
distributors to return a certain proportion of their purchases in the event 
that the product does not sell.  A price protection program gives the 
distributor a rebate on purchases during a specified period if the 
manufacturer subsequently lowers it prices.  The price protection generally 
covers any purchases made within the most recent 60 to 90 day period prior to 
the manufacturer's price reduction.
The Company works off manufacturers' lead times.  Deliveries range from one week
to approximately 90 days.  The Company has a fully integrated on-line computer 
system that enables it to determine immediate inventory availability of the 
Company's entire inventory at its stocking facilities.  The Company monitors 
and maintains manufacturers' delivery schedules to ensure "on-time" delivery 
for customers and to maintain proper inventory levels for the Company. The 
Company believes that it has adopted more thorough inventory control systems, 
and management currently does not believe it will be required to expense any 
significant amounts of inventory in the foreseeable future.  However, there 
can be no assurance there will not be further inventory write-offs.
                                   -5-

The Company's objective is to minimize lead times for its customers without 
financing excess stock levels or risking technological obsolescence.  Several 
manufacturers have provided the Company an expedited shipping function in order 
to better service the Company's customers.

SALES AND MARKETING
The Company offers a broad range of custom-made cable assemblies and harnesses 
used as connectivity solutions to end-users, professionals who install and 
service data communications, and original equipment manufacturers (OEM's).
The Company operates through three locations in the Northeast, Mid Atlantic, 
and Western regions of the United States.  All of the locations operate as a 
sales office, manufacturing facility and warehouse.  These operations support 
the design and manufacture of custom-made and standard cable assembly 
requirements for the entire Company.
In order to effectively meet each customer's needs, the sales force first gains
an understanding of the customer's system connectivity requirements before 
recommending one or more possible solutions.   The Company generally does not 
participate in the design of computer applications but rather participates in 
the design and implementation of the connectivity solutions required for data 
communications.The field sales force is supported by inside sales personnel 
who handle incoming customer calls, perform sales estimates, provide rapid 
responses to customer questions and assist in sales prospecting.  In addition, 
compensation policies have been tailored to promote a profit-oriented, rather 
than a revenue oriented, sales philosophy.
Sales leads are typically generated by ongoing interaction with existing 
customers, sales calls to companies not currently customers, referrals from 
suppliers, and by advertising and promotional efforts.  The advertising and 
promotion program for the Company consists of: (i) exhibits at national and 
regional trade shows; (ii) Company-sponsored seminars and product 
demonstrations in regional areas; (iii) advertisements in trade publications;
and (iv) direct mail campaigns to targeted market niches.

COMPANY LOCATIONS
The Company's locations, which all are leased, are as follows: 

			Elkridge, Maryland    
 		Farmingdale, New York 
	  San Jose, California 
	

MAJOR CUSTOMER
The Company had one customer that has accounted for 10% or more of its net sales
during the prior two fiscal years.  Bloomberg L.P. accounted for approximately 
11.4% of net sales in fiscal 1996 and approximately 14.7% of net sales in fiscal
1995.  In fiscal 1997, this customer altered its product line and discontinued 
using the Company as a supplier of their cable assemblies.






                                    -6-

COMPETITION
All aspects of the Company's business are highly competitive.  The Company 
competes with several national distributors, which have greater financial and 
other resources than the Company.  The Company also competes with numerous 
distributors on a local or regional basis.  The Company is ISO-9002 certified 
and therefore more attractive to a customer who requires this industry 
certification of quality.  

The Company believes that its ability to design and manufacture custom cable 
assemblies as well as making available technical support, differentiates the 
Company's from its primary competitors and gives the Company a competitive 
advantage.  There can be no assurance the Company will be able to successfully
exploit such advantage.

PRODUCT LIABILITY INSURANCE
The Company maintains a comprehensive general liability insurance policy in the
amount of $2,000,000, with an umbrella policy, including products liability, 
providing coverage in the aggregate amount of $20,000,000, which it believes 
to be adequate coverage.

EMPLOYEES
As of October 7, 1997, the Company had 114 full-time employees.  Of these, 17 
are sales and marketing personnel; 3 are design, engineering, and technical 
support personnel; 15 are purchasing, warehouse and inventory control personnel;
58 are cable assembly manufacturing personnel; 10 are quality control personnel;
and 11 are accounting, data processing and other administrative personnel.  27 
employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement in the Company's 
Farmingdale facility.  In addition to its employees, the Company uses other 
workers on a contract basis, as its needs require.  The Company considers its
relations with its employees to be good.

                                     -7-

ITEM THREE - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
An action was commenced in the New York State Supreme Court, County of Nassau,
by CPI Aerostructures, Inc. ("CPI"), alleging that VTX Electronics Corp. has 
wrongfully failed to consummate a proposed merger transaction.  The plaintiff 
is seeking "break-up" fee damages in the amount of $400,000.  

As a result of the Company filing Chapter 11 on January 10, 1997, this potential
liability has been converted to an unsecured claim and will be treated as such 
under Bankruptcy rules  (see Subsequent Events).

  	CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

YEARS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 AND 1996

Net sales for the year ended June 30, 1997 were approximately $21,224,000, as 
compared to the year ended June 30, 1996 of $29,116,000, a decrease of 27.1%. 
Value added distribution sales decreased by approximately $7,116,000 or 38.6% 
from $18,449,000 in the prior fiscal year to $11,333,000 in the current fiscal
year.  Sales of manufactured cable assemblies decreased by approximately 
$776,000 or 7.3% from $10,667,000 in the prior fiscal year to $9,891,000 in the
current fiscal year.  The decrease was primarily a result of the Company's 
inability to purchase product, which lead to the Company filing a petition for
relief under Chapter 11 of the federal bankruptcy laws "Chapter 11" on January
10, 1997 (see Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).
Gross profit decreased by $1,087,000 or 19.6% for the year ended June 30, 1997 
to $4,445,000 from $5,532,000 as compared to fiscal 1996. Gross profit 
percentage for the years ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 were 20.9% and 19.0%, 
respectively.  The decrease in gross profit was primarily the result of the 
aforementioned decrease in net sales coupled with the decrease in gross profit
per sales dollar, which is due primarily to the poor absorption of fixed 
overhead costs caused by the significant decrease in sales volume, in addition
to a decrease in unit selling prices.  

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased approximately $1,437,000 
or 15.0% to $8,129,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997 from $9,566,000 as 
compared to fiscal 1996.  Selling, general and administrative expenses as a 
percentage of net sales were 38% in fiscal 1997 as compared to 33% in fiscal 
1996.  The decrease in these expenses was the result of cost reductions of 
payroll and related expenses, terminated equipment leases, and reducing general
expenses as a result of filing Chapter 11 on January 10, 1997.

Interest expense and dividends on preferred stock increased by $47,000 or 4.6%
for the year ended June 30, 1997 to $1,067,000 from $1,020,000.  The increase 
was due to the requirements of interest and dividends resulting from the 
December 1995, March 1996 and June 1996 financings and also due to the 
Company's utilization of its revolving credit facility to its maximum line of 
credit for most of the period.  As a result of certain 1997 events, including 
sale of the Company's headquarters and the bankruptcy related matters certain 
interest and dividends costs were eliminated after the second quarter

Chapter 11 Reorganization related Expenses includes an accrual for approximately
$365,000 in professional fees to be paid under the plan of reorganization, 
approximately $110,000 for fees paid relating to the revolving credit facility 
DIP Financing and approximately $14,000 of printing and filing fees, all  
resulting from the filing of Chapter 11 on January 10, 1997.

The Company recognized a loss of approximately $248,500 on the sale of the 
headquarters.  The loss includes closing costs expenses and non-cash write-offs
of building related expenses.

YEARS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 AND 1995

Net sales for the year ended June 30, 1996 were approximately $29,116,000, as 
compared to the year ended June 30, 1995 of $34,472,000, a decrease of 15.5%. 
Value added distribution sales decreased by approximately $2,952,000 or 13.8% 
from $21,401,000 in the prior fiscal year to $18,449,000 in the current fiscal
year.  Sales of manufactured cable assemblies decreased by approximately 
$2,404,000 or 18.4% from $13,071,000 in the prior fiscal year to $10,667,000 in
the current fiscal year.  The decrease was primarily attributable to significant
sales employee turnover that had taken place during the eight months preceding 
January 1, 1996 in addition to an overall reduction in salesperson headcount.  
Gross profit decreased by $2,709,000 or 32.9% for the year ended June 30, 1996 
to $5,532,000 from $8,241,000 as compared to fiscal 1995. Gross profit 
percentage for the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 were 19.0% and 23.9%, 
respectively.  The decrease in gross profit was primarily the result of the 
aforementioned decrease in net sales coupled with the decrease in gross profit
per sales dollar, which is due primarily to the poor absorption of fixed 
overhead costs caused by the significant decrease is sales volume, in addition
to a decrease in unit selling prices.  The prior year gross profit amount has 
been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation, which is being 
reclassified in this financial statement, which excludes the costs of receiving,
warehousing and shipping of distribution items.  Such costs are presented as 
part of selling, general and administrative expenses discussed below. 

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased approximately $914,000 or
10.6% to $9,566,000 for the year ended June 30, 1996 from $8,652,000 as compared
to fiscal 1995.  Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of
net sales were 33% in fiscal 1996 as compared to 25% in fiscal 1995.  The 
increase in these expenses was the result of costs associated with the Company's
marketing efforts required to re-establish itself in the marketplace, 
recapitalization-related charges pertaining to the settlement of certain 
contracts and agreements in connection with the December 1, 1995 transaction, 
and an increase in executive headcount in the current year.

Interest expense and dividends on preferred stock increased by $193,000 or 23.3%
for the year ended June 30, 1996 to $1,020,000 from $827,000.  The increase was 
due to the requirements of interest and dividends resulting from the December 
1995, March 1996 and June 1996 financings.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Current assets have decreased approximately $4,782,000 to $4,941,000 at June 30,
1997 as compared to $9,723,000 at June 30, 1996.  This decrease resulted 
primarily from a significant decrease in accounts receivable of approximately 
$3,869,000, a decrease in inventories of approximately of $513,000, and a 
decrease in prepaid and other current assets of approximately $522,000, which 
was offset by a $121,000 increase in cash. The Company had net working capital
of $1,153,000 at June 30, 1997 as compared to $5,079,000 at June 30, 1996.
On January 10, 1997, the Company filed petitions for relief under Chapter 11 
of the federal bankruptcy laws in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the 
Eastern District of New York.  Under Chapter 11, certain claims against the 
debtor in existence prior to the filing of the petitions for relief under the 
federal bankruptcy laws are stayed while the Debtor continues business 
operations as Debtor-in-possession. Claims secured against the Debtor's assets
("secured claims") also are stayed, although the holders of such claims have 
the right to move the court for relief from the stay.  Secured claims are 
secured primarily by liens on the Debtor's property, plant and equipment, 
accounts receivables and inventories.

Total borrowings outstanding, including subordinated secured debentures, as of 
June 30, 1997 were $4,491,000, a decrease of $5,027,000 or 52.8% from $9,518,000
at June 30, 1996.  This was due primarily to the reduction of the Company's 
revolving credit facility of approximately $2,844,000, the satisfaction of 
certain mortgages of  approximately $1,279,000 on the Company's headquarters 
in Farmingdale, NY, which was sold (see Note E), repaying pro-rata $750,000 
to the secured subordinated debenture holders, and the exchange of approximately
$500,000 of subordinated debentures as consideration for the sale of the 
distribution business (see Notes A(2) and P).
The Company currently has a revolving credit facility which provides for 
maximum borrowings of $10,000,000 at an interest rate of prime plus 2-3/4% 
with an additional commitment fee of 1/2% per annum on the daily average unused
portion of the credit.  Under the terms of the agreement, borrowings are limited
to 80% of eligible accounts receivable (constituting those amounts outstanding 
90 days or less) and 50% of eligible accounts receivable outstanding between 91
and 120 days, and 40% of regular inventory and 20% of slow moving inventory.  As
of June 30, 1997, the Company had approximately $2,453,000 of availability under
the facility, of which $2,254,000 was outstanding on that date.  The loan is 
collateralized by substantially all of the assets of the Company not otherwise 
collateralized.  This credit facility expired on December 31, 1997 and is 
classified as a current portion of long term debt (see Note A(3)). 

On January 12, 1998, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement 
(the "Loan Agreement") with it's current lender (see Note G).  The Loan 
Agreement replaced the court approved DIP financing and extended the Company's
credit facility for a 90 day period through April 12, 1998.  The terms of the 
Loan Agreement are similar to its prior loan except for a reduction to 75% on 
advances of eligible accounts receivables and a reduction to 24% on advances of
eligible  inventory.  As part of the Loan Agreement, TW provided additional 
cash collateral of $500,000 in order for the Company to fund the Plan. The 
Company is presently seeking to secure long-term financing prior to the 
aformentioned expiration date.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - (CONTINUED)
In connection with its revolving credit facility, the Company is subject to 
restrictive covenants which impose certain limitations with respect to the 
Company's incurrence of indebtedness, capital expenditures, creation or 
recurrence of liens, declaration or payment of dividends or other distribution,
mergers, consolidations and sales or purchases of substantial assets.In general,
the Company is not allowed to incur further indebtedness or create additional 
liens on its assets except for unsecured current liabilities incurred in the 
ordinary course of business or liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of 
business secured by purchase money security interests  not to exceed an 
aggregate of $750,000.  The Company is not allowed to make loans or investments
or provide guarantees or to prepay indebtedness.  The Company is prohibited from
paying dividends on common stock and may not enter into a merger, consolidation 
or sale of all or substantially all of its assets. Additionally,  the Company is
required to maintain consolidated net worth, including subordinated debentures, 
of not less than $750,000 and to maintain consolidated working capital, defined 
as current assets less current liabilities and debt outstanding under the credit
facility, of not less than a negative $1.5 million.  

At June 30, 1997, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards for tax 
purposes of approximately $15,798,000.  Such net operating loss carryforwards 
expire through fiscal year 2012.  The Company's use of its net operating loss 
carryforward is limited as the Company is deemed to have undergone an 
"ownership change", as defined in Internal Revenue Code Section 382, during the 
fiscal year ended June 30, 1992 and June 30, 1994.  Based upon the Company's 
estimate of fair value, approximately $1,750,000 of the Company's total net 
operating loss of $15,798,000 is limited to approximately $715,000 annually 
during the carryforward period.

As part of the overall plan of reorganization,  the Company obtained relief of 
various unsecured debt of approximately $5.1 million and received an additional 
$1.9 million of deemed cancellation of debt attributable to TW's purchase of 
debentures at a discount. (See notes A-3 and C.)  In addition, TW exchanged its 
preferred stock for 90% of the Company's outstanding common stock.  This 
transaction resulted in a new change in ownership as defined under Internal 
Revenue Code (IRC) Section 382.  

Due to the bankruptcy provisions of IRC Section 382, the Company's ability to 
utilize its net operating loss carryovers remains unchanged.  However, the 
Company's total net operating loss carryover of $15,798,000 will be reduced by 
the amount of total debt forgiven of $7 million, effective January 12, 1998.  
Any subsequent changes in ownership within the two year period following the 
effective date of reorganization (January 12, 1998) could severly limit the 
Company's abiltiy to utilize any of its net operating loss carryovers.

INFLATION
For the last three fiscal years, the Company has not been significantly affected
by inflation.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
On March 31, 1994, the Company entered into an employment agreement with its 
then president which required total annual minimum compensation of $200,000 
through March 1997 plus an annual bonus based on a percentage of specified 
levels of achieved net profits.  Effective December 1, 1995, this agreement was 
terminated in connection with his resignation and the obligation was settled for
$134,000, charged to fiscal 1996 operations and is payable monthly through 
March 1997.


MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT
On January 1, 1996, the Company entered into a management agreement with a 
consulting firm whereas the Company has retained one of the consulting firm's 
principals to function as its Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer.
The term of this agreement extends through December 31, 2000 and provides for 
monthly management fees of  $12,000, provided, however, that the Company does 
not hire a president or chief operating officer during that period of time.  
On January 9, 1997, this Management agreement was canceled as a result of 
the Company filing for Chapter 11 (see Recent Developments).

On January 1, 1996, the Company entered into employment agreements with two of 
its newly and recently appointed executive officers.  The terms of these 
agreements extend through December 31, 1997 and provide for monthly compensation

officer which provides for compensation of up to a maximum of eight months of 
the excutive's base salary, approximating $67,500, upon termination of 
employment for any reason other than for certain circumstances, as defined in

On January 10, 1997, TW Cable LLC,  ("TW") whose owner is a director of the

filled the vacancies created by the resignations of Mr. Marshall Butler, Mr. 
Hiro Hiranandani, Mr. Ivor Jacobson, Mr. Paul Lowell and Mr. Ken Rind.

ITEM THIRTEEN - CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
(CONTINUED)

On May 7, 1997, the Company entered into an agreement that was subject to 
Bankruptcy Court approval,  with TW, (the "Asset Purchase Agreement") pursuant
to which TW would acquire the Company's distribution business and all of its 
assets used in connection with the distribution business.  The purchase price 
for the distribution assets is an amount equal to $500,000.  The agreement 
entitles TW to purchase the Company's distribution inventory for an amount 
equal to 82.5% of the book value over a one year period.  Pursuant to the 
Asset Purchase Agreement, TW agreed to assume certain facility leases of the 
Company.  On June 26, 1997, the closing of the Asset Purchase Agreement took 
place.  TW assumed three (3) locations, including all employees of these 
locations.  

On June 26, 1997, the Company sold its distribution business to TW.  The sale 
was completed under Bankruptcy Court Approval under a Section 363 transaction 
sale.  The purchase price was $500,000.  The payment of $500,000 was allocated 
to all distribution intangible assets and fixed assets.  In addition, the 
Company has agreed to sell to TW  the distribution inventory of approximately 
$1,500,000 at 82.5% of the book value over a one year period.  The Company has 
recorded a gain on the sale of the distribution business of approximately 
$65,700.  TW satisfied the selling price by exchanging $500,000 of the Company's
secured subordinated debt.  Upon closing of the Asset Purchase Agreement, TW 
assigned all rights and benefits of the Asset Purchase Agreement to TW 
Communications Corp. an ("Affiliate"), owned 100% by the sole member of TW.  As 
of January 12, 1998, the Affiliate has purchased approximately $1,237,000 of 
distribution inventory at the discounted value.

On October 30, 1997 the Company's second amended plan of reorganization and 
disclosure statement (the "Plan") was confirmed by  the United States Bankruptcy
Courts in Westbury, New York.  The confirmed Plan is effective in the date the 
Company secures exit finanancing.

The Plan calls for an initial distribution to unsecured creditors with claims 
greater than $1,000 ("Class 7")  to received 13.5% of their  claim and future 
distributions based on cash flow (as defined) over the next five years.  
Unsecured creditors with claims less than $1,000 ("Class 6") will receive a 
distribution of 20% of their claim. The initial distribution payments and 
certain other administrative claims are guaranteed by the Affiliate.  Under 
the Plan, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Vertex Technologies, Inc., 
merged into the Company, and the Company changed its name to Vertex Computer 
Cable & Products, Inc.  Under the Plan, 25.3 million of the Company's 40 
million authorized shares of common stock will be issued and outstanding.  
Effective December 29, 1997, each five shares of the Company's common stock 
outstanding were exchanged for one share of the surviving entity.  As a result,
holders of the Company's currently outstanding 12,652,000 common stock shares 
will receive 2,530,400 post-reorganization shares.  Further, the preferred 
shareholders exchanged such outstanding preferred stock and forgave accrued 
dividends for 22,773,600 common stock shares, representing 90% of the post-
reorganization outstanding common stock.

As of June 30, 1997, the Company has a liability to the Affiliate of 
approximately $520,000, which includes approximately $337,000 for material 
purchases, which is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses and 
approximately $183,000 for administrative expenses. As of June 30, 1997, the 
Affiliate owed to the Company approximately $86,000 for their purchase of 
materials.

			                 			 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED
								                     PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
Board of Directors and Stockholders
	Vertex Computer Cable & Products, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Vertex Computer 
Cable & Products, Inc. (formerly VTX Electronics Corp.) and Subsidiaries as of 
June 30, 1997 and 1996, and the related consolidated statements of operations, 
stockholders' equity (deficiency) and cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended June 30,1997. These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on 
these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by 
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in 
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Vertex Computer 
Cable & Products, Inc. and subsidiaries as of June 30, 1997 and 1996 and the 
consolidated results of their operations and their consolidated cash flows for 
each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 1997, in conformity with 
generally accepted accounting principles.

As shown in the consolidated statements, the Company incurred net losses 
attributable to common stock of $5,556,172, $5,058,331 and $$1,316,044 
during the years ended June 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively, and as 
described in Note A, on January 10, 1997, the Company filed petitions for 
relief under Chapter 11 of the federal bankruptcy laws.  The Company continued 
to operate as a debtor-in-possession until the plan of reorganization became 
effective on January 12, 1998.  The accompanying consolidated financial 
statements have been prepared assuming that the Company 
will continue as a going concern, which assumes realization of assets and 
settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.  The uncertainty 
as to the Company's ability to raise additional capital or secure long-term 
financing and sustain profitable operations, as discussed in Note A to the 
consolidated financial statements, raise substantial doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern after emerging from bankruptcy. The 
consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might 
result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements referred 
to above, we have also audited Schedule II - Valuation and Qualifying Accounts 
for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 1997.  In our opinion, 
this schedule presents fairly,in all material respects, the information required
to be set forth therein.

						       NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
								          June 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995
NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND CHAPTER 11 BANKRUPTCY FILINGS

1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Vertex Computer Cable & Products, Inc., (formerly VTX Electronics Corp.) and 
subsidiaries (the "Company" or "Debtor") operate primarily in one business 
segment - distribution  and assembly of electronic wire, cable and related 
products used primarily for data communication and distribution.  The principal 
market for the Company's products is in the United States.  The consolidated 
financial statements include the accounts of Vertex Computer Cable & Products, 
Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Vertex Technologies, Inc. and its 
foreign subsidiary, Vertex Electronics UK, LTD.  As a result of the loss of its 
major United Kingdom customer, the Company initiated, in February 1997, the sale
of its foreign subsidiary (see Note M).  All significant intercompany 
transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company's consolidated financial statements have been presented on the basis
that it is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and 
satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  The Company had 
net losses attributable to common stock of $5,556,172, $5,058,331 and $1,316,044
for the years ended June 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  These losses 
resulted primarily from a decrease in sales.

On January 10, 1997, the Company filed petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of 
the federal bankruptcy laws in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the 
Eastern District of New York.  As a result of the Chapter 11 proceedings (as 
described in Note A(2)), the Company petitioned to liquidate or settle 
liabilities for amounts other than those reflected in the accompanying 
consolidated financial statements.  Furthermore, as a result of the Company's 
plan of reorganization being approved, it is likely that substantial adjustments
will be made to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities by adjusting their
values as of the date of the plan of reorganization (the "Confirmation Date").

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming 
that the Company will continue as a going concern which assumes the realization 
of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.  The 
uncertainty as to the Company's ability to raise additional capital or secure 
adequate long-term financing and sustain profitable operations raises 
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might 
result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The Company's consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 1997 have been 
presented in conformity with the AICPA's Statement of  Position 90-7, 
"Financial Reporting By Entities In Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code,"
issued November 19, 1990 ("SOP 90-7").  SOP 90-7 requires a segregation 
of liabilities subject to compromise by the Bankruptcy Court as of the 
bankruptcy date (January 10, 1997) and identification of all transactions and 
events that are directly associated with the reorganization of the Company.

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
                     June 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995

NOTE A(1)  CONTINUED

Prior years' comparative balances have not been classified to conform with the
current year's balances stated under SOP 90-7.  The most significant difference 
between the current year's and prior years'presentations is the reclassification
of certain outstanding debt to current liabilities and pre-petition accounts 
payable to "liabilities subject to compromise"  (see Note C).


2.   CHAPTER 11 BANKRUPTCY PROCEEDINGS
Under Chapter 11, certain claims against the Debtor in existence prior to the 
filing of the petitions for relief under the federal bankruptcy laws are stayed 
while the Debtor continues business operations as debtor-in-possession ("DIP").
Additional claims (liabilities subject to compromise) may arise subsequent to 
the filing date resulting from rejection of executory contracts, including 
leases, and from the determination by the courts (or agreed to by parties in 
interest) of allowed claims for contingencies and other disputed amounts.  
Claims secured against the Debtor's assets ("secured claims") also are stayed,
although the holders of such claims have the right to move the court for relief 
from the stay.  Secured claims are secured primarily by liens on the Debtor's 
property, plant and equipment, accounts receivable and inventories.

The Company received approval from the Bankruptcy Court to pay or otherwise 
honor certain of its prepetition obligations, including wages.  The Company 
continued to manage its affairs and operate its business as a DIP, subject to 
the supervision of the Bankruptcy Court while the case was pending.

In January 1997, the Company's revolving credit facility provided DIP Financing 
(the "DIP Financing") under a court-approved order.  The cost to secure the DIP 
Financing was $50,000.  TW Cable LLC ("TW"), whose owner is a director of the 
Company and a holder of secured subordinated debentures,  provided $350,000 of 
cash collateral to the Company's revolving credit lender in an effort to support
the Company's cash flow requirements.

On May 7, 1997, the Company entered into an agreement (the "Asset Purchase 
Agreement") that was subject to Bankruptcy Court approval,  with TW, pursuant 
to which TW would acquire the Company's distribution business product lines and
all of its assets used in connection therewith (see Note P2).


3.  PLAN OF REORGANIZATION

On October 30, 1997, the Company's second amended plan of reorganization and 
disclosure statement (the "Plan") was confirmed by  the United States Bankruptcy
Courts in Westbury, New York.  The confirmed Plan became effective on January 
12,1998 concurrent with the Company's consumation of exit financing (see below).




                                   F-9

          NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
                     June 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995

NOTE A(3)  (CONTINUED)

The Plan calls for unsecured creditors with claims greater than $1,000 ("Class 
7")  to receive 13.5% of their claim in quarterly installments over the next 
twelve months and future distributions based on cash flow (as defined) over 
the next five years.  Unsecured creditors with claims less than $1,000 ("Class 
6") will receive a distribution of 20% of their claim. The initial distribution 
payments and certain other administrative claims are guaranteed by TW 
Communication Corp. (the "Affiliate").  Under the Plan, the Company's wholly-
owned subsidiary, Vertex Technologies, Inc., merged into the Company, and the 
Company changed its name to Vertex Computer Cable & Products, Inc.  Under the 
Plan, 25.3 million of the Company's 40 million authorized shares of common 
stock will be issued and outstanding.  Effective December 29, 1997, each five 
shares of the Company's common stock outstanding at June 30, 1997 were exchanged
for one share of the surviving entity.  As a result, holders of the Company's 
currently outstanding 12,652,000 common stock shares will receive 2,530,400 
post-reorganization shares.  Further, the preferred shareholders exchanged 
such outstanding preferred stock and forgave accrued dividends for 22,773,600 
common stock shares, representing 90% of the post-reorganization outstanding 
common stock.

On January 12, 1998, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the
"Loan Agreement") with it's current lender (see Note G).  The Loan Agreement 
replaces the court-approved DIP financing and extended the Company's credit 
facility for a 90-day period through March 31, 1998 and can be extended if 
necessary.  The terms of the Loan Agreement are similar to its prior loan 
except for a reduction to 75% on advances of eligible accounts receivable and 
a reduction to 24% on advances of eligible  inventory.  As part of the Loan 
Agreement, TW provided additional cash collateral of $500,000 in order for the 
Company to fund the Plan.  The Company is presently seeking to secure long-term 
financing prior to the aforementioned expiration date.  The Company continues to
manage down its costs while focusing on improving revenues by developing 
training programs for sales personnel, hiring national sales representatives 
and reducing its costs to allow for competitive bidding.  

Pursuant to SOP 90-7, the Company will adopt "Fresh Start" reporting on January
12, 1998, the effective date of the Plan.  Under Fresh Start reporting, the 
reorganization value of the new entity is allocated to the new entity's assets. 
If any portion of the reorganization value cannot be attributed to specific 
tangible or identified intangible assets of the emerging entity, such amounts 
are to be reported as "reorganization value in excess of amounts allocable to 
identifiable assets" and amortized over future periods.  As a result of 
adopting "Fresh Start" reporting, the new entity's financial statements will 
not be comparable to the historical financial statements (see Note C).

          NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
                     June 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995

NOTE B - 	SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

1.	INVENTORIES
Inventories, consisting principally of products held for sale, are stated at the
lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market. 

2.	PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT 
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation 
and amortization computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful 
lives of the respective assets.  Building improvements are amortized over the 
useful life of the improvement. Expenditures for maintenance, repairs and 
betterments which do not materially extend the useful lives of the assets 
are charged to operations as incurred.  The cost and related accumulated 
depreciation of assets retired or sold are removed from the respective accounts 
and any gain or loss is recognized in operations. 

3.	REVENUE RECOGNITION 
The Company recognizes revenue on the date the product is shipped to the 
customer. 

4.	DEFERRED COSTS 
Costs incurred in connection with debt refinancing, consisting primarily of loan
origination fees, broker's commission, legal and other fees, have been 
capitalized and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of 
the loans.  Amounts of unamortized refinancing costs deferred at June 30, 1997 
and 1996 were $0 and $334,000, respectively. 

5.	INCOME TAXES
Deferred income taxes are recognized for temporary differences between financial
statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities and loss carryforwards 
for which income tax benefits are expected to be realized in future years.  A 
valuation allowance has been established to reduce the deferred tax assets as 
it is more likely than not that all, or some portion, of such deferred tax 
assets will not be realized.

6.	NET LOSS PER SHARE 
Net loss per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares 
outstanding during the year.  The fiscal 1997 and 1996 net loss per share 
computation includes an adjustment for the preferred stock dividends in 
deriving the net loss per share before and after extraordinary item. The 
effect of stock options on the calculation of net loss per common share was 
antidilutive in each of the years ended June 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995.

7.	FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION AND TRANSACTIONS 
Assets and liabilities of the Company's foreign subsidiary are translated at 
year-end exchange rates.  Results of operations are translated using the 
average exchange rates prevailing throughout the year.  Exchange rate changes 
arising from translation are included in the cumulative translation component 
of stockholders' equity.  Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions

NOTE B (CONTINUED)

	8.	USE OF ESTIMATES
In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted 
accounting principles, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect 
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent 
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the 
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual 
results could differ from those estimates. 

 9.  	FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company's principal financial instruments consist of accounts receivable, 
accounts payable, long-term debt and subordinated debentures.  Due to the 
Chapter 11 reorganization, the Company believes that the fair value cannot be 
reasonably determined with respect to accounts payable and debt instruments. 

 10.	NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS NOT YET ADOPTED
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued 
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share," which
is effective for financial statements for both interim and annual periods ending
after December 15, 1997.  Early adoption of the new standard is not permitted.  
The new standard eliminates primary and fully diluted earnings per share and 
requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share together with 
disclosure of how the per share amounts were computed.  The adoption of this 
new standard is not expected to have a material impact on the calculation and 
disclosure of earnings per share in the financial statements.

NOTE C - LIABILITIES SUBJECT TO COMPROMISE

The Company's liabilities subject to compromise at June 30, 1997 were recorded 
at the amounts which had been allowed or were expected to be allowed by the 
Bankruptcy Court rather than the amounts for which the claims will be settled 
under the Plan of Reorganization.  In some cases the amounts that are expected 
to be allowed will differ from the amounts at which the liabilities were 
recorded prior to the Chapter 11 case because of negotiations and resulting 
agreements in the Bankruptcy Court which determines the allowed amounts.  
Liabilities subject to compromise of $6,191,880 include approximately $93,000 
in accrued interest, $165,000 of accrued preferred stock dividends in arrears 
and the balance represents trade payables.

If the Company's Plan of Reorganization  had become effective (out of Chapter 11
status) by June 30, 1997, the amount of liabilities subject to compromise would 
have been reduced to approximately $898,000.

1.	On February 10, 1995, the Company entered into an amended and restated 
revolving credit agreement with a lending institution.  Such agreement provided
for a revolving credit facility with maximum availability of $10,000,000 and 
expiring on December 31, 1997.  As a result of the Company filing for Chapter 
11 on January 10, 1997, the Company entered into a court-approved DIP financing
agreement with such lending institution.  The cost of the financing was $50,000 
and extended the Company's credit facility for a one-year period or until exit 
financing is in place (see Note A(3)).

	Under the terms of the credit facility, the Company is required to pay interest
at prime plus 2-3/4% (11.25% at June 30, 1997) and a commitment fee of 1/2% per 
annum on the daily unused portion of the credit.  The agreement also provides 
for termination fees as a result of default or early termination of 1% and .5% 
of the maximum credit if such termination occurs before December 31, 1996 and 
1997, respectively.  In connection with this financing amendment, the Company 
incurred in fiscal 1995 costs approximating $80,000, which have been accounted 
for as deferred charges and are being amortized through December 31, 1997.  As a
result of the bankruptcy filing unamortized deferred costs aggregating 
approximately $123,500 were written off in fiscal 1997.

NOTE G (CONTINUED)

Under the terms of the agreement, borrowings are limited to 80% of eligible 
accounts receivable (constituting those amounts outstanding 90 days or less) 
and 50% of eligible accounts receivable outstanding between 91 and 120 days, 
and 40% of regular inventories and 20% of slow moving inventory.  As of June 
30, 1997 and 1996, the Company had $2,453,000 and $5,431,000 available under 
the eligibility terms of the facility, $2,254,000 and $5,098,000 of which was 
outstanding on such dates, respectively.  This loan is collateralized by 
substantially all of the assets of the Company not otherwise collateralized. 
In connection with its revolving credit facility, the Company is subject to 
restrictive covenants which impose certain limitations with respect to the 
Company's incurrence of indebtedness, capital expenditures, creation or 
recurrence of liens, declaration or payment of dividends or other distributions,
mergers, consolidations and sales or purchases of substantial assets.  In 
general, the Company is not allowed to incur further indebtedness or create 
additional liens on its assets except for unsecured current liabilities incurred
in  the ordinary course of business or liabilities incurred in the ordinary 
course of business secured by purchase money security interest not to exceed an 
aggregate of $750,000.  The Company is not allowed to make loans or investments 
or provide guarantees or to prepay indebtedness.  The Company is prohibited from
paying dividends on common stock and may not enter into a merger, consolidation 
or sale of all or substantially all of its assets. Additionally, the Company is 
required to maintain consolidated net worth, amended on March 15, 1996, to 
include subordinated debentures, of not less than $750,000 and to maintain 
consolidated working capital, defined as current assets less current liabilities
and debt outstanding under the credit facility, of not less than a negative $1.5
million.

As of June 30, 1997, the Company was in default of certain covenants of the 
aforementioned agreement.  The lender continued to provide DIP financing under 
an approved order from the United States Bankruptcy Court.
     
2.	On December 20, 1996, the outstanding first and second mortgage loans were 
satisfied using the proceeds from the sale of the Company's headquarters in 
Farmingdale, NY.  The Company recognized a loss of approximately $248,500 on 
the sale of the headquarters.  The loss includes closing costs and 
non-cash write-offs of building-related expenses.

	The first mortgage loan was with a group of lenders, and was payable over five 
years in monthly installments of $15,980, inclusive of principal and interest at
14%, commencing May 1, 1994, with a final installment of principal of $1,033,183
payable on April 1, 1999 and was collateralized by a first mortgage lien on the 
Company's corporate headquarters.  In connection with such loan, the Company 
issued to one of the lenders 250,000 common stock purchase warrants exercisable 
on or before March 31, 2001 at an exercise price of $.50 per share, which was 
subsequently reduced to $.125 per share (see Note I2). A portion of the proceeds
of the loan had been allocated to the warrants based on the Company's Board of 
Directors' assessment of their fair value at the time of issuance ($.70 per 
share).  For financial statement purposes, the fair value ascribed to the 
warrants of $175,781 had been deducted from the proceeds of the mortgage loan as
additional interest expense and was being amortized over the term of the 
mortgage to yield an effective interest rate of approximately 20% per annum. The
loan had prepayment penalties which are calculated as a percentage of the 
prepayment amount.

The second mortgage loan was with substantially the same group of lenders, and 
was payable over five years in monthly installments of $3,630, inclusive of 
principal and interest at 14.875%, commencing August 1, 1996, with a final 
installment of principal of $204,206 payable on July 1, 2001 and was 
collateralized by a second mortgage lien on the Company's corporate 
headquarters.  In connection with such loan, the Company issued 1,250,000 
common stock purchase warrants, which are exercisable beginning April 1, 1999 
through March 31, 2009 at an exercise price of $.125 per share (see Note I2).  
The loan had prepayment penalties which are calculated as a percentage of the 
prepayment amount.


3.	The Company leases its telephone system and certain warehouse equipment which
is accounted for as  capital leases.  The obligation for the telephone system 
requires the Company to make monthly payments of $1,963 through December 1997.
The obligation for the warehouse equipment requires the Company to make monthly 
payments of $1,240 through May 2000.

NOTE H - SECURED SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES, PREFERRED STOCK AND WARRANTS
	         ISSUED 

Under a Capitalization Agreement (the "Agreement") signed on December 1, 1995, 
the Company received $2,475,000 from an unaffiliated investor group ("new 
investors") in exchange for Secured Subordinated Debentures (the "debentures")
with a principal amount of $1,237,500, 12,375 shares of Senior Redeemable 
Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock ("preferred stock") with a stated value 
of $100 per share and warrants to purchase 19,800,000 shares of common stock  
(see Note I2).

The debentures are due on June 19, 2001 and accrue interest at an annual rate of
2% over the published prime rate of interest (10.50% at June 30, 1997), payable 
quarterly over the life of the bonds.  Such bonds are secured by all of the 
assets of the Company, however, subordinate to the secured debt under the 
revolving asset-based loan and the first and second mortgage loans described 
in Note F. 

The preferred stock is redeemable on December 1, 2000 for $1,237,500 in cash or 
common stock, based upon the lower of 70% of the fair market value of the 
underlying common stock on such date or $.25 per common share, at the option of 
the Company.  The preferred stockholders are entitled to receive dividends 
quarterly at an annual fixed rate of 12%, the effect of which is cumulative to 
the extent the Company does not make such quarterly payment on the prescribed 
basis.  On or after June 1, 1996 and through December 1, 2000, each preferred 
share may be converted into common stock of the Company at a conversion rate of 
$.25 per share (400 common shares for each preferred share converted) (see Note 
A3).  Each share of preferred stock contains 1,500 votes or voting rights on all
matters being voted on by the shareholders of the Company other than the 
election of directors. Additionally, the holders of the preferred stock, voting 
as a class, shall in each year elect seventy-five percent of the members of the 
Board of Directors of the Company.  Effective December 1, 1995 and pursuant to 
the Agreement, the existing Board of Directors ("former directors") resigned in
favor of a new Board of Directors ("new directors"). 

The warrants to purchase common stock of the Company issued under the Agreement 
to the new investors are currently exercisable at $.125 per common share and 
have a term commencing June 1, 1996 and expiring December 1, 2000 for 4,950,000
of the warrants and an additional term commencing April 1, 1999 and expiring 
March 31, 2009 for the remaining 14,850,000 warrants (see Note I2).  In 
connection with these issuances, the Company recorded a discount on the bonds 
payable of $185,625 and a discount on preferred stock of $185,625, representing 
the estimated relative fair market value of the warrants on the date of such 
issuance as determined by the Company, which will be recognized as interest 
expense and preferred stock dividends, respectively, on a straight-line basis 
over the 60-month term of the Agreement. 

Expenses of approximately $104,000 relating to various legal, accounting, 
consulting and other fees were incurred in connection with the Agreement, 
$52,000 of which has been attributed to the issuance of the debentures, which 
has been recorded as a deferred charge and is being amortized over the 60-month 
term on a straight-line basis, and $52,000 of which has been attributed to the 
issuance of the preferred stock/warrants, which has been recorded as a direct 
reduction to the equity received by the Company.

NOTE H (CONTINUED)

On March 21, 1996 and June 19, 1996, the Company received an additional 
$1,237,500 and $1,290,000, respectively, from the new investors and certain 
additional individual and institutional investors, in exchange for additional 
Secured Subordinated Debentures for a principal amount of $1,237,500 and 
$1,290,000 and warrants to purchase 24,750,000 and 25,800,000 shares of common 
stock of the Company, respectively (see Note I2). 

The debentures are substantially identical and pari passu with the debentures 
issued on December 1, 1995.  Accordingly, such debentures are due on June 19, 
2001 and accrue interest at an annual rate of 2% over the published prime rate 
of interest, payable quarterly over the life of the debentures.  Such debentures
are secured by all of the assets of the Company, however, subordinate to the 
secured debt under the revolving asset-based loan and the first mortgage loan 
as described in Note G.

The warrants to purchase 50,550,000 shares of common stock of the Company are 
exercisable at $.125 per common share and have a term commencing April 1, 1999 
and expiring on March 31, 2009 (see Note I2).  In addition, the exercise price 
for the 19,800,000 warrants issued in connection with the December 1, 1995 
agreement was reduced from $.25 to $.125 per share in connection with the March 
financing. The exercise of these warrants is contingent upon the authorization, 
by the shareholders, of additional authorized common stock. In connection with 
this issuance, the Company recorded a discount on the secured subordinated 
debentures of $247,500 and $258,000 in March and June 1996, respectively, which 
represents the estimated fair market value of the warrants on the date of such 
issuance as determined by the Company, which will be recognized as interest 
expense on a straight-line basis over the 60-month term of the agreement. 

Expenses of approximately $25,000 and $115,000 in March and June 1996, 
respectively, relating to various legal, accounting and other fees incurred
in connection with the financings have been recorded as deferred charges and 
are being amortized over the 60-month term on a straight-line basis.

On December 20, 1996, the Company paid pro-rata to all secured subordinated 
debenture holders, the sum of $750,000 with the proceeds received from the 
closing of the sale of the Farmingdale, New York facility, as required  (See 
Note G(2)).  In addition, the Company recorded a loss on extinguishment of 
debt of approximately $120,000.  This loss resulted from the accelerated write-
off the bond discount in conjunction with the satisfaction of the first and 
second mortgages.

Effective in fiscal 1997, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting 
Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123").  SFAS
123 allows for a choice of the method of accounting used for stock-based 
compensation.  Entities may elect the "intrinsic value" method based on APB 
Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," or the new "fair 
value" method contained in SFAS 123.  The Company has elected to continue to 
account for stock-based compensation under the guidelines of APB Opinion No. 
25.  Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized concerning stock 
options and warrants granted to key employees and to members of the Board of 
Directors in their capacity as Directors.

				 	                   June 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995

NOTE I (CONTINUED)

If the Company had elected to recognize compensation expense based upon the fair
value at the grant date for options granted under these plans to key employees 
and to members of the Board of Directors, consistent with the methodology 
prescribed by SFAS 123, the Company's pro forma net (loss) would have been 
$5,580,172 and $5,070,331 in fiscal 1997 and fiscal 1996, respectively, and the 
pro forma net (loss) per common share would be unchanged for both periods.

These pro forma amounts may not be representative of future disclosures because 
they do not take into effect pro forma compensation expense related to grants 
made before fiscal 1996.  The weighted average fair value of these options 
($.22) was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing
model with the following weighted-average assumptions for the options issued in 
fiscal 1996: 
expected volatility ranging from 135% to 145%; risk-free interest rates ranging 
from 5.38% to 5.80%; and expected option life of 3 years.  The Company issued no
stock options or warrants in fiscal 1997 and all options issued in fiscal 1996 
were to either key employees or directors.

2.  	In connection with various mortgage and debt refinancings which occurred 
from 1994 through 1996 (see Notes G(2) and H), the Company issued 71,868,750 
common stock purchase warrants at an exercise price of $.125, of which 
71,850,000 are outstanding at June 30, 1997.   In accordance with  the Company's
filed second amended plan of reorganization and disclosure statement,  all the 
aforementioned warrants were cancelled on the effective date of January 12,1998.

3. On December 19, 1994, the Company issued 789,500 shares of its common stock 
to extinguish $394,750 of an equipment note originally issued on October 18, 
1991.

NOTE J - INCOME TAXES

As a result of the Company's fiscal 1997, 1996 and 1995 losses and inability to

NOTE J  (CONTINUED)

The Company anticipates that for the foreseeable future it will continue to be 
required to provide a 100% valuation allowance for the tax b3nefit of its net 
operating loss carryforwards and temporary differences.

At June 30, 1997, the Company has net operating losses available to carryforward
of approximately $15,798,000 for tax purposes.  Such net operating loss 
carryforwards expire through fiscal year 2012.  No benefit has been recorded for
such loss carryforwards since realization cannot be assured.

The Company's use of its net operating loss carryforward is limited as the 
Company is deemed to have undergone an "ownership change", as defined in 
Internal Revenue Code Sec. 382, during the fiscal years ended June 30, 1992 and
June 30, 1994.  Based upon the Company's estimates of fair value, approximately
$1,750,000 of the Coompany's total net operating loss of $15,798,000 is limited,
pursuant to Internal Revenue Sec. 382 to approximately $715,000 annually during
the carryforward period.

As part of the Plan, effective January 12, 1998, the Company obtained relief of 
various unsecured debt of approximately $5.1 million and received an additional 
$1.9 million of deemed cancellation for tax purposes of debt attributable to 
TW's purchase of debentures at a discount (See Notes A (3) and C.). In addition,
TW exchanged its preferred stock for 90% of the Company's outstanding common 
stock.  This transaction resulted in a new change in ownership as defined under 
Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 382.

Due to the bankruptcy provisions of IRC Section 382, the Company's ability to 
utilize its net operating loss carryovers remains unchanged.  However, the 
Company's total net operating loss carryover of $15,798,000 will be reduced by 
the amount of total debt forgiven of approximately $7 million. 

Any subsequent changes in ownership within the two year period following the 
date of reorganizaiton (January 12, 1998), could severely limit the Company's 
ability to utilize any of its net operation loss carryovers.

NOTE L - MAJOR CUSTOMER AND VENDORS

During fiscal 1996 and 1995, one customer accounted for 11.4% and 14.7%, 
respectively, of the net sales of the Company.  For the fiscal year ended June 
30, 1997, six vendors accounted for 28.6%, 13.0%, 10.5%, 10.3%, 10.2%, and 10.1%
of the Company's purchases.  For the year ended June 30, 1996, no vendor 
accounted for more than 10.0% of the Company's purchases.  For the year ended 
June 30,1995, one vendor accounted for 15.7% of the Company's product purchases.
Although the Company believes that it may be able to obtain competitive 
products of comparable quality from other suppliers, the loss of certain 
suppliers could have an adverse impact on operations.


NOTE M - UNITED KINGDOM OPERATIONS

On January 10, 1995, the Company  purchased the remaining 20% minority 
shareholder interest in Vertex Electronics UK, LTD for approximately $8,400.
During fiscal 1997, under an agreement with an unrelated third party, the 
Company sold its U.K. fixed assets and inventories.  The Company did not record 
any material gain or loss as a result of this liquidation.   

NOTE N  - EMPLOYEE PENSION PLAN

The Company participates in a multi-employer, union-sponsored pension plan 
covering all union employees pursuant to a negotiated labor contract. Pension 
expense for the defined contribution plan for the years ended June 30, 1997, 
1996 and 1995 was $41,000, $48,000 and $61,000, respectively.  In the event of 
the Company's withdrawal from the multi-employer, union-sponsored plan, the 
Company could be liable for a portion of the plan's underfunding, if any.

NOTE O - LITIGATION

An action was commenced in the New York State Supreme Court, County of Nassau, 
by CPI Aerostructures, Inc.("CPI"), alleging that the Company had wrongfully 
failed to consummate a proposed merger transaction.  The plaintiff is seeking 
"break-up" fee damages in the amount of $400,000.  The Company has served an 
answer and counterclaim, denying any wrongdoing and alleging that CPI misled 
the Company by failing to adequately disclose material losses. This case is 
included as a claim under the Company's Chapter 11 proceedings.  The claim will
be treated under the Company's Plan of Reorganization as an unsecured claim.

NOTE P - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

1.	On January 10, 1997, TW, whose owner is a director of the Company, concluded 
a transaction with the holders of the Company's preferred stock and subordinated
debentures (see Note H) pursuant to the terms of a certain Securities Purchase 
Agreement (the "Securities Purchase Agreement").  As a result of that 
transaction, TW acquired all of the issued and outstanding preferred stock

NOTE P (CONTINUED)

2.  	On May 7, 1997, the Company entered into an agreement (the "Asset Purchase 
Agreement") that was subject to Bankruptcy Court approval, with TW, pursuant to 
which TW would acquire the Company's distribution business product lines and all
of its assets used in connection therewith for $500,000.  In addition, the Asset
Purchase Agreement entitles TW to purchase approximately $1,500,000 of the 
Company's distribution inventory for an amount equal to 82.5% of the book value
over the next twelve months.  Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, TW 
agreed to assume certain leases of the Company.  On June 26, 1997, the closing 
of the Asset Purchase Agreement took place.  TW assumed three (3) locations, 
including all employees of these locations.  
	
The Company  recorded a gain on the sale of the distribution business product 
lines of approximately $65,700 (net of a $262,000 write-down for the inventory 
price concession granted to TW).  TW satisfied the selling price by exchanging 
$500,000 of the Company's secured subordinated debt.  Upon closing of the Asset 
Purchase Agreement, TW assigned all rights and benefits of the Asset Purchase 
Agreement to an Affiliate, owned 100% by the sole member of TW. 

3.		As of June 30, 1997, the Company has a liability to the Affiliate of 
approximately $520,000, which includes approximately $337,000 for material 
purchases, which is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses and 
approximately $183,000 for administrative expenses. As of June 30, 1997, the 
Affiliate owed to the Company approximately $86,000 for their purchase of 
materials.

4.  	On March 17, 1997, the Company entered into a sublease agreement with the 
Affiliate for the Farmingdale, NY facility.   The sublease is for a term of two 
years and the Company pays monthly rent to the Affiliate of approximately
$8,500.  During fiscal 1997, the Company was charged $34,000 in rent by the 
Affiliate.


NOTE Q - RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

The consolidated statement of operations for the year ended June 30, 1995 
reflects the costs of a fiscal 1994 restructuring plan designed to realign the 
Company's corporate headquarters and field operations to increase its overall 
profitability through the closing of certain branches, the elimination of 
certain marginally profitable product lines and the disposal of certain assets.
Prior to fiscal 1995, restructuring charges consisted of provisions for 
termination of certain employment contracts, employee severance and benefit 
settlements, inventory write-downs for discontinued product lines, and the 
abandonment of leased facilities, equipment and other assets. Additional costs 
of $91,000 associated with the Company's restructuring effort were incurred in 
fiscal 1995.  Such costs were primarily associated with final settlements 
reached in fiscal 1995 for the termination of certain employment contracts, 
employee severance and benefit arrangements, as well as additional related legal
fees associated therewith.
