The Committee to Enhance Equus, collectively owning 11.4% of the

thanked Equus stockholders for supporting and voting FOR the

Philip Ferguson, Lance T. Funston, Jonathan H. Godshall, Charles R.
Ofner, Dr. Francis D. Tuggle, John P. Wade and John D. White – on

2010*.
VOTE THE COMMITTEE’S GOLD
PROXY CARD TODAY
The Committee has nominated highly qualified and experienced
director candidates whose interests are closely aligned with those
of ALL Equus
stockholders. The Committee’s nominees are widely respected,
well-connected community and industry leaders. If elected, they
would bring a desperately needed CORE CHANGE and fresh
perspective to Equus while overseeing the implementation of
disciplined strategies designed to enhance and sustain value.
As the Equus 2010 annual meeting of stockholders is fast
approaching, it is extremely important that stockholders vote as
soon as possible. The Committee asks that stockholders please vote
by telephone or Internet according to the instructions on the
GOLD proxy materials.
Even if stockholders have already voted using the white proxy card,
they have every right to change their vote simply by executing and
submitting the GOLD
proxy card, as only the last dated proxy card will count. Since
the annual meeting date is May 12th, voting by
telephone or Internet is necessary to ensure that stockholders’
votes will be counted.
