VOTE YOUR PROXY CARD TODAY

 

September 28, 2007

 

Dear Fellow Reddy Ice Stockholder:

 

We recently mailed proxy materials to you for the Special Meeting of Stockholders to be held on October 12, 2007, and according to our records, your vote has not been received.

 

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends that stockholders vote “FOR” the proposals as set forth in the proxy statement that was previously sent.

 

If your shares are held by your brokerage firm or bank, you must provide them with instructions on how to vote on your behalf or they will be unable to vote your shares on certain issues, including the adoption of the merger agreement.  Given that time is short, we encourage you to follow the instructions on the enclosed form to vote by telephone or Internet.

 

If you have any questions or would like assistance in voting your shares of Reddy Ice Holdings, Inc. common stock, please call our proxy solicitor, Morrow & Co., Inc., toll-free at 1-800-662-5200.

Sincerely,

 

WILLIAM P. BRICK
Chairman of the Board of Directors
