Item 5.  Other Events.
         ------------

               On April 30, 2002, WHX Corporation issued a press release,  which
is set forth as  Exhibit  99.1 to this  Current  Report and is  incorporated  by
reference  herein,  that its 2002 Annual Meeting of Stockholders will be held on
Tuesday, June 18, 2002 in Wilmington, Delaware.

               WHX  also  announced  that it had been  notified  by the New York
Stock  Exchange  ("NYSE")  that its share price had fallen  below the  continued
listing criteria  requiring an average closing price of not less than $1.00 over
a consecutive 30 trading-day period. Following notification by the NYSE, WHX has
up to six months by which time WHX's share price and average  share price over a
consecutive 30 trading-day period may not be less than $1.00. In the event these
requirements  are not met by the  end of the  six-month  period,  WHX  would  be
subject to NYSE  trading  suspension  and  delisting  and,  in such  event,  WHX
believes that an alternative trading venue would be available.  WHX is currently
evaluating  alternatives  to bring its average share price back into  compliance
with NYSE  requirements,  including a potential reverse stock split which is one
of the proposals to be acted upon at the 2002 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
