**** IMPORTANT ****

Dear Basic Earth Shareholder:

    Enclosed you will find additional proxy materials relating to the Annual Meeting scheduled to be held on December 15, 2009.
 
    Basic Earth believes that it is important that its shareholders have a voice in determining the outcome of the proposals that will be considered at the Annual Meeting.  The Board believes these proposals are key in improving the future direction of the Company, and as such recommend you vote in favor of all proposals.  Because we have not heard from you, we are sending you this reminder notice, and we urge you to vote your proxy immediately.  As a shareholder, you have the ability to vote over the internet or telephone, and we are asking you to do so now to save the Company further expense.  Instructions on how to vote over the phone or internet are enclosed in this package.
 
    Your shares cannot be represented at the Annual Meeting unless you either sign and return the enclosed voting form or vote by telephone or over the internet.  You may also attend the Annual Meeting to cast your votes in person.
 
    If you sign and return the enclosed form without indicating a choice of “for,” “against” or “abstain” your shares will be voted as recommended by your Board of Directors.  Adjournments of the Annual Meeting result in additional costs to the Company, so please vote today.

    If you have questions or need help voting your shares, please call our proxy solicitation firm, Morrow & Co., LLC. at 800-607-0088.
