FiberCore Advises Of Inaccurate Form 144 Filing

    CHARLTON, Mass., Jan. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- FiberCore, Inc. (Nasdaq: FBCE), a
leading manufacturer and global supplier of optical fiber and preform for the
telecommunication and data communications markets, announced that two
incorrect Form 144s were registered with the SEC on January 16, 2001.
    The incorrect filings indicated the registration of 500,000 shares of
restricted stock each by President and CEO Dr. Mohd A. Aslami and Secretary
Charles DeLuca.  The correct amount should have been for just 25,000 shares
each.  The Company is taking the appropriate steps to correct these filings.

multi-mode optical fiber preforms and optical fiber for the telecommunications
