El Paso Corporation's annual meeting of shareholders is next Tuesday, June

Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP), time is running short for submitting your proxy
with instructions for voting those shares. If you have not voted your
restricted or ESPP shares, please do so. Your vote--as a shareholder and as
an employee--is crucial. We urge you to vote for the El Paso Board's
nominees by submitting your WHITE proxy card. Even if you plan on attending
the shareholder meeting we request that you vote your shares promptly. As a
participant in the ESPP or a holder of restricted shares, you can always
change your vote at the shareholder meeting should you desire to do so.
Complete your proxy card by specifying your choice for each proposal, then
signing and dating the card. To make sure your vote arrives on time, please
photocopy both sides of your proxy onto a single sheet of paper, then fax
your proxy as soon as possible to Bob Sandhu with MacKenzie Partners at
212-929-0308.
Your vote does count. Please sign, date, and fax your WHITE proxy card in
support of the El Paso Board's nominees today.
