<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The current five-member majority of the Board, which we refer to as the &#147;Holdover 5,&#148; must
have little regard for stockholders&#146; recollection of the value destruction Equus Total Return, Inc.
has suffered over the past 5&nbsp;years. During the time that Moore, Clayton Capital Advisors, Inc.
(MCCA)&nbsp;was Equus&#146;s investment adviser, beginning in June&nbsp;2005, until Equus internalized its
management, in June&nbsp;2009, <B>the stock price declined 61%</B>. From June&nbsp;30, 2005 to March&nbsp;26, 2010 (the
last trading day before members of our Committee announced their intention to launch a proxy
contest), <B>Equus&#146;s stock price declined 65%</B>. The chart below serves as a sad reminder that
stockholders have suffered greatly in terms of lost share value. You do not deserve more of the
same.

directors who were nominated by MCCA, are attempting to entrench themselves and also pack the Board
with four new nominees, who were introduced to Equus by MCC Global and nominated by Kenneth Denos.
These four new nominees &#147;represent&#148; a single stockholder and were not properly vetted</B>. The
Committee to Enhance Equus&#146;s goal of electing our nine, highly qualified nominees to the Board and
our sole reason for running this campaign is to restore the successful past 25-year investment
philosophy and creation of value that stockholders deserve. The Committee has put personal funds
of its members at risk in conducting this proxy contest.

the meeting, stockholders will have the opportunity to decide Equus&#146;s course and the future of
their investment by electing the nine, experienced and knowledgeable Board nominees proposed by The
Committee to Enhance Equus. These nominees are J. Philip Ferguson, Lance T. Funston, John D.
White, Charles R. Ofner, John P. Wade, Jonathan H. Godshall, Paula T. Douglass, Dr.&nbsp;Francis D.
Tuggle and Dr.&nbsp;Charles M. Boyd.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Committee recently mailed, to all stockholders, our proxy statement detailing the
backgrounds of our nine, highly-qualified nominees. The information in our proxy statement speaks
for itself, and all stockholders are urged to read it thoroughly to be fully informed. The
Committee&#146;s nominees bring a wealth of experience and will provide <B>ALL </B>Equus stockholders the best
opportunity to recoup the value destroyed during MCCA&#146;s tenure as Equus&#146;s investment adviser. The
status quo is not sustainable, and your investment deserves better. We urge all stockholders to

Equus currently <B>OWNS </B>approximately 11.4% of Equus, and we are not selling our shares.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In another letter to stockholders, the Holdover 5 places a great deal of importance on the
fact that their four new nominees &#147;represent&#148; the single largest stockholder of Equus. However,
<B>none of these four individuals own a single share of Equus personally</B>. Moreover, the Committee
believes that it would be imprudent and unfair to all other stockholders to have the interests of
one stockholder, who <B>owns less than 10% of the outstanding shares</B>, to be grossly overrepresented on
the Board, with its &#147;representatives&#148; seeking to occupy more than 40% of the seats on your Board.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Holdover 5 and these four new nominees personally own only <B>one-half of one percent </B>of
Equus, yet they attempt to claim that their interests are aligned with yours. Our nominees
<B>personally own more than 10 times the number of shares that the Holdover 5 and their additional
nominees own</B>. Our nominees face the same risks to their investment that you do. Please vote the
<U><B>GOLD</B></U> proxy card today.

Mr.&nbsp;Denos also held the positions of CEO and President of MCCA from May&nbsp;2008 until June&nbsp;2009, a

has had prior executive fund management experience. Stockholders deserve someone who is not
getting on-the-job training at their company. The Board internalized the management of Equus in
June&nbsp;2009, replacing MCCA. After replacing MCCA, and despite persistent efforts by Sam Douglass, a
Committee member, no formal search process was conducted to identify a suitable, experienced
outside candidate to act as CEO. Instead, the Holdover 5 appointed one of their own to act as CEO,
and the poor results of this choice are reflected in further deep declines in stock price and net
asset value. Since February&nbsp;2010, Equus has not had a CEO or President. The decline in
stockholder value is a symptom of the instability that has plagued Equus under MCCA and the
Holdover 5. It is time to cut ties with MCC Global, MCCA, Mr.&nbsp;Denos and his bloc of directors.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We describe in our April&nbsp;15 proxy statement the hasty and substandard manner in which the
Holdover 5 nominated the additional four candidates on their slate. That &#147;process&#148; appears to have
been so lacking that it failed to discover legal proceedings involving Alessandro Benedetti, one of
their nominees, that can be located using rudimentary internet searches. Had this basic form of
due diligence been conducted prior to Mr.&nbsp;Benedetti&#146;s nomination, it would have revealed that on
June&nbsp;15, 2009, Mr.&nbsp;Justice Patten of the High Court of Justice Chancery Division of the United
Kingdom, stated the following regarding Mr.&nbsp;Benedetti in the official transcript of his judgment:

authorities under which he <B>entered a guilty plea and accepted a sentence of

seems obvious to me that the opposite is the case.&#148; (emphasis added)

complete ongoing negotiations related to current financing activities.&#148; Each and every member of
the Holdover 5 signed this Form 10-K acknowledging this ongoing default and the purpose for it.</B>
The Committee struggles to see how publicly complaining about an acknowledged arrangement regarding
a significant investment fosters a profitable relationship with a portfolio company or, more
importantly, how it enhances your value as an Equus stockholder. The Holdover 5&#146;s ill-considered
allegations demonstrate, we believe, their lack of business acumen and respect for Equus and its
investments.
</DIV>

<!-- link1 "THE COMMITTEE&#146;S NOMINEES HAVE MORE EXPERIENCE AND ARE BETTER QUALIFIED" -->
<DIV align="center" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 18pt"><B>THE COMMITTEE&#146;S NOMINEES HAVE MORE EXPERIENCE AND ARE<BR>
BETTER QUALIFIED</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Holdover 5 trumpet the foreign backgrounds of their nominees, but we see no reason why
significant foreign representation on the Equus board would be of particular benefit to our
stockholders. The vast majority of our investments are domestic in nature and are best managed by
those with the experience and qualifications to do so. Having a significant number of foreign
directors is also more expensive and less efficient because of, among other things, increased costs
associated with foreign travel and communication and time changes hindering effective and efficient
decision making. Notably and memorably, when MCCA originally became Equus&#146;s investment adviser,
they touted a foreign investment strategy. Now, the Holdover 5&#146;s &#147;silver bullet&#148; also appears to
be premised on this same claim.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;With only one exception, the Holdover 5 nominees do not currently hold, and have not held in
the past five years, a single directorship of a domestic public company or an investment company.
Our nominees&#146; current service on the Boards of several public companies stands in stark contrast.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our nominees have the right blend of qualifications and experience to help reverse the course
of Equus. For example, from 2000 to 2007, J. Philip Ferguson held the positions of Chairman,
President, Chief Investment Officer and Senior Investment Officer, at various times, of AIM Capital
Management, Inc., the successor to which is part of the Invesco, Ltd. (NYSE: IVZ) family of
companies. During his time with AIM Capital Management, Mr.&nbsp;Ferguson oversaw the growth of that
company to over $100&nbsp;billion in assets under management. We urge you to read more about Mr.
Ferguson and our nominees and their qualifications in our proxy statement.
