materials to all of the Corporation's shareholders as of July 2, 2001, the
record date for determining shareholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at,
the annual meeting of shareholders of American Medical Alert Corp. to be held on

We have also amended the proxy statement to include updated

management of the Corporation.
In connection with the re-mailing of all proxy solicitation
materials, we are enclosing herein a new BLUE proxy card. WE REQUEST THAT YOU
---- -------------------
SUBMIT A NEW VOTE OF YOUR SHARES. IF YOU HAVE PREVIOUSLY MAILED IN A WHITE PROXY
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CARD, THAT VOTE WILL NOT BE COUNTED. PLEASE PROMPTLY MARK, DATE, SIGN AND RETURN
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE ENCLOSED BLUE PROXY CARD IN THE ACCOMPANYING POSTAGE PREPAID ENVELOPE. You
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------
may of course, attend the Annual Meeting and vote in person even if you have
mailed your proxy card.
The Corporation desires that every shareholder have ample
opportunity to exercise a vote at the Annual Meeting, following a review of all
relevant and up to date information regarding the Corporation. We regret any
inconvenience.
