Dear Limited Partners of Synthetic Industries, L.P.:
Enclosed are new forms of the Proxy and the Withdrawal Election Agreement
to be used in connection with the Plan of Withdrawal and Dissolution of
Synthetic Industries, L.P. These forms have been revised on account of some
confusion that has come to our attention regarding certain language contained in
the original Proxy and Withdrawal Election Agreement forms. The Plan does not
require a Limited Partner to vote in favor of the Plan either by Proxy or at the
Special Meeting in order to participate in the Withdrawal Election and
Underwritten Sale. In order to participate in the Withdrawal Election and
Underwritten Sale, however, you must complete and sign a Proxy and a Withdrawal
Election Agreement and deliver them to the Solicitation Agent prior to the
Solicitation Expiration Date, but you are free to vote your Proxy in any manner
that you choose. If you submit a Proxy and a Withdrawal Election Agreement, you
may still attend the meeting and revoke either or both your Proxy and your
Withdrawal Election Agreement.
Several Limited Partners who are NASD members or affiliates of NASD members
or associated persons have also expressed some concern about a representation in
the Withdrawal Election Agreement that a Withdrawal Election Partner is not a
member, an affiliate of a member or a person associate with a member of the NASD
(the "NASD Representation"). NASD members or their affiliates or associated
persons can participate in the Withdrawal Election and the Underwritten Sale but
only if they apprise the General Partner of the name of the NASD member and the
nature of the affiliation. This information is necessary to ensure that the
underwriting group will not violate Rules 2710 and 2720 of the Rules of the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Upon receipt of this
information from any Limited Partner, the General Partner will waive the NASD
Representation requirement. In any event, Limited Partners who are NASD members
or affiliates or associated persons are not restricted in any way from voting
their Units either by Proxy or at the Special Meeting. If you are in NASD member
or an affiliate or an associated person and you wish to make the Withdrawal
Election, you should contact the Solicitation Agent immediately for
instructions.
IF YOU HAVE ALREADY COMPLETED AND DELIVERED THE ORIGINAL PROXY AND/OR
WITHDRAWAL ELECTION AGREEMENT TO THE SOLICITATION AGENT, SUCH PROXY AND/OR
WITHDRAWAL ELECTION AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED MODIFIED AS DESCRIBED ABOVE AND
YOU DO NOT NEED TO RESUBMIT THEM ON THE ENCLOSED REVISED FORMS UNLESS YOU WISH
TO CHANGE YOUR VOTE AND/OR ELECTION THEREON. You are free to change or revoke
your original Proxy and/or Withdrawal Election by completing, signing and dating
the enclosed forms and delivering them to the Solicitation Agent prior to the
Solicitation Expiration Date.
If you have questions or need assistance, or if you need another copy of
the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, please call X.X. Xxxx & Co., Inc., the
Solicitation Agent, at (000) 000-0000.
Very truly yours,
SYNTHETIC INDUSTRIES, L.P.
