June 9, 1998
Dear Lidak Shareholder:
We have previously sent you Proxy Material relating to the Company's Annual
Meeting of Shareholders scheduled for June 8, 1998. Since many of our shares are
held in retail brokerage accounts and because of delays in the mail, we have not
yet received the required vote on proposals 1 and 2. Therefore, we have
adjourned the meeting until June 30, 1998 to allow additional time to obtain the
required vote on these proposals.
Many shareholders believe their votes are not important. On the contrary,
they are vital. Regardless of the number of shares you may own, it is important
they be represented.
Please help save the Company the additional expense of any further
solicitation costs by mailing your proxy and/or following these instructions
below:
