Dear 5~:

I am writing to ask that you give your prompt attention to our Request
Solicitation statement which was distributed early this week.  In addition,
you will shortly be receiving a GREEN request card or voting form from your
brokerage firm or custodial bank.

      PLEASE COMPLETE THE GREEN REQUEST CARD OR VOTING FORM IMMEDIATELY.

You have a critical role to play in helping us send a strong message to
Magma's Board of Directors to maximize shareholder value.  In recent press
releases, Magma continues to reserve the right to "stay independent" and, in
any event, is seeking to unduly prolong its "exploration of alternatives."  An
EARLY vote will send an unmistakable message to Magma's Directors:
expeditiously negotiate the sale of the company at the highest available
price.

Please understand that today's vote is ONLY to call a Special Meeting of
Magma's shareholders and does not commit you to a particular slate of
director-nominees or to vote for any other proposals.  I wish to emphasize
that without a Special Meeting, the shareholders of Magma will not have the
opportunity to elect Directors who are willing to sell the company for the
highest price.  With the support of you and a majority of shareholders, I can
assure you that California Energy will continue its efforts to acquire Magma.

The Special Meeting is currently scheduled by us for December 22, or more than
three months after California Energy made its first acquisition proposal.  We
believe that three months is more than sufficient time for Magma to attract a
better offer, if one exists.

MacKenzie Partners will be contacting you shortly to ensure that you received
your GREEN card and to offer their assistance.  If you have questions, please
contact Mark Harnett at (212) 929-5877 or Dan Burch at (212) 929-5748 of
MacKenzie.

Sincerely,



David L. Sokol
Chairman, President and
Chief Executive Officer
