You can sign as many proxies as you like, only the final one counts. And if you show up at the annual meeting, none of them counts, you can vote as you like. Read our definitive proxy statement and management's materials. Read whatever else you can find, ask questions, discuss things and think them through. eRaider offers a message board for the purpose, there is also an active discussion on the Yahoo! message board. Once you make up your mind, you have three options. Go to the meeting (June 19th in Melbourne Florida) and vote your shares however you want. Fill out, sign and send in the proxy card the company sent you. If you do that, we recommend voting against Items 1 and 4, withholding all votes on items 2A and 2B and voting for item 3. However, if you do this, you cannot vote for eRaider's nominees for director. Use our form. If you trust us completely, you just have to sign and mail the form to us. But read it carefully first, you may want to direct votes on some issues. If you don't direct any votes, that is if you just sign and date the form and make no other marks on it, the form tells you how we will vote your shares. If you disagree, you can specify another vote and we are bound to vote as you direct. If you decide to use our form, you must get a copy. We are trying to mail them to shareholders, but have not yet received the shareholder list from the Company. In any event, we do not plan to mail to all shareholders, and we may not get any mailed out in time for the meeting. So we suggest you choose one of the following five options. We have listed them from best to worst. Click here to get a printable version of the proxy in Adobe Acrobat format. You need the Adobe software to read it, but most people have this and it's free to download if you don't (and handy to have in any event). Then you can print the form off if you have a printer. Click here to download a Word file or here to download a text file instead of the Acrobat file above. Again, of course, you need a printer for this option. Email us and ask us to mail you one. You can also request email delivery in Adobe, Word or text format. The first two will be attached files, the third will be pasted into the body of the email. Or you can ask us to fax you a proxy. You can go to the on-line proxy form, cut and paste it into any word processing program, and print it out. But if you try to print directly from the Internet, you will get an ugly document, probably an unusable one. If you want to print directly from the Internet it will take 7 pages (it's only 2 in the Word file). You must click successively on Page 1, Page 2, Page 3, Page 4, Page 5, Page 6 and Page 7; then use your browser print command to print each one. The eRaider print button doesn't do that (it just reformats the page for printing and tells you to use your browser's command, but the reformatting doesn't help much for this document). However you obtained the proxy, sign it and mail it to: eRaider.com Inc. PO Box 20170 Park West Station New York, NY 10025 It's not essential, but it helps counting if you include the proxy form management sent you. If you don't have that, please let us know the number of shares you owned at the end of May 2, 2001, the account they are in (assuming that, like most people, you hold them in a street name with a broker rather than in your own name) and your social security number. If you feel uncomfortable revealing any of that, it's okay, we can match you up from the shareholder list, it just takes more time and sometimes leads to arguments with management.
