Dear EnergySouth Shareholder:
Please find enclosed additional proxy material relating to the Annual Meeting scheduled to be held on January 26, 2007 at 10 a.m. in the Auditorium at the principal office of the Company, 2828 Dauphin Street, Mobile, Alabama.
To date, although the overwhelming majority of votes cast have been in favor of the proposed re-incorporation of the company from Alabama to Delaware, we have not yet obtained the necessary two-thirds of outstanding shares vote on the proposal needed to pass Proposal #2.
Because of the high threshold we have determined the need to send this reminder notice out to all holders that are still unvoted and urge you to vote your proxy immediately. In many cases our shareholders will have the ability to vote over the internet or telephone and we urge you to do so now to save the company further expense. Instructions on how to vote over the phone or internet are enclosed in this package if your broker allows for electronic voting.
Your shares cannot be represented at the Annual Meeting with respect to Proposal #2 unless you either sign and return the enclosed voting form or vote by telephone or over the internet.
If you sign and return the enclosed form without indicating a choice of “for”, “against” or “abstain”, your shares will be voted as recommended by your Board of Directors. Adjournments result in additional costs to the company, so please help us achieve this vote. To ensure your shares are counted at the annual meeting we urge you to vote today.
If you have questions or need help voting your shares, please call our proxy solicitation firm, Morrow & Co., Inc. at 800-607-0088.
