Dear HEP Unitholder,
Recently you received a Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus and proxy card
asking you to approve our consolidation into Hallwood Energy Corporation. The
Board of Directors encourages you to vote for the consolidation.
There may have been some confusion about how to complete the proxy cards if
you received more than one card. If you own both Class A and Class C units, it
is necessary to complete and mail a separate proxy card for each class of units.
Enclosed with this letter is a proxy card for each class of Energy Partners
units you own and have not yet voted.
If you own both classes of units and have already voted one of the proxy
cards you received in the original mailing, please vote the enclosed card to
ensure that your vote for both classes of units is counted. If you have already
voted via telephone or internet, please vote using the control number on the
card enclosed. If there are two cards enclosed, please vote both of them. Your
proxy bearing the later date will be the proxy counted as your vote.
Please telephone our solicitation agent, The Herman Group, toll-free at
877-731-5210 for more information or assistance in completing the proxy cards.
Sincerely,
/s/ William L. Guzzetti
