VOTE YOUR SHARES
April 5, 1994
To All Shareholder Teammates:
The deadline for returning shareholder voter instruction cards is
rapidly approaching. Teammates who own MDC shares through the employee
savings and stock ownership plans must return their cards by April 19 for
their votes to be counted.
If you don't vote your own shares, others will vote them for you.
Under the plans' rules, the trustee votes all the shares owned through
the plans in the same proportion for, against and in abstention as votes
cast by teammates who return their voter instruction cards before the
deadline.
This means that those who vote actually determine the votes for all
the shares owned through these plans.
More than 70 percent of teammates have a right to vote through their
participation in the employee savings and stock ownership plans. Yet fewer
than 32 percent voted their shares last year.
Don't let others vote for you. I urge you to sign and return the voter
instruction card in the postage-paid envelope which was sent with the 1994
Proxy Statement by April 19.
/s/ John F. McDonnell
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
