Tanz Chairman of the Board Sizeler Property Investors, Inc. 2542 Williams Boulevard Kenner, LA 70062 Dear Mr. Tanz: We have reviewed today's press release from Compson Holding Corporation ("Compson") in which Compson offers to acquire all Sizeler Property Investors, Inc ("Sizeler" and the "Company") assets for the equivalent of $16.10 per share in cash. As you know, we have significant concerns with respect to how Sizeler handled the auction process for the Company. The conflicts of interests between you, as Chairman of Sizeler, and Revenue Properties Company Limited and Morgaurd Corporation are particularly disturbing. The Compson offer now provides you with the opportunity to put to rest the question of whether or not the process was indeed fair and designed to maximize value for all Sizeler shareholders, not just Revenue Properties. In light of the superior all cash offer proposed by Compson we call on the board to immediately enter into discussions with Compson or any other interested party that may be willing to offer a premium to the current $15.10 per share offer. In addition, given the attractiveness of the Compson proposal, we call on the board to reconsider liquidation as a means to maximize value for all Sizeler shareholders. We look forward to your immediate affirmative response. Very truly yours, Phillip Goldstein Portfolio Manager -----END PRIVACY-ENHANCED MESSAGE-----
