Dear Shareholder:
Recently, you received a package in the mail with materials for APCapital's
upcoming annual meeting on May 8, 2002. Due to a mailing error, APCapital's
Proxy Statement was inadvertently left out of the package. We are enclosing with
this letter a Proxy Statement containing the information you need to cast your
vote on the matters to be brought before the meeting, along with a new
blue-stripped proxy voting card and another return envelope.
IF YOU HAVE ALREADY VOTED YOUR PROXY CARD BY MAIL OR BY TELEPHONE AND DO NOT
WISH TO CHANGE YOUR VOTE AFTER REVIEWING THE ENCLOSED MATERIALS, YOU DO NOT HAVE
TO RE-CAST YOUR VOTE. HOWEVER, IF YOU HAVE VOTED AND WOULD LIKE TO CHANGE YOUR
VOTE, YOU MAY DO SO BY VOTING THE ENCLOSED BLUE-STRIPPED PROXY CARD BY TELEPHONE
OR BY RETURNING YOUR PROXY CARD IN THE ENCLOSED RETURN ENVELOPE PRIOR TO THE
MEETING. IF YOU HAVE NOT YET VOTED, PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTE USING THE ENCLOSED
BLUE-STRIPPED PROXY CARD.
We apologize for this error and any inconvenience this may cause you. If you
have any questions, please call our Investor Relations department at
1-866-561-8222.
Sincerely,
APCapital Investor Relations
