Estate Fund, Inc. (the "Fund"), the Fund's Board of Directors approved, on a
temporary basis, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company ("AST") as transfer
agent and registrar for the Fund. On July 19, 2007, after due consideration by
the Fund's Board of the services provided by AST and the costs associated with
such services, the Board approved the continued use of AST as transfer agent and

In addition to acting as transfer agent and registrar for the Fund, AST will
also act as dividend disbursing agent, dividend paying agent, stockholder
service agent and stockholder servicing agent. Seligman Data Corp. will not be

mailed to AST at the following address: American Stock Transfer & Trust Company,
