Dear Fellow infoUSA Stockholder:

We are writing to urge you to vote for the three new, highly qualified and independent candidates Dolphin has nominated for election to infoUSA’s Board of Directors at the May 26, 2006 Annual Meeting. As you will see, these nominees have no ties to Dolphin, infoUSA or its management.

Your vote is extremely important as every vote counts. You can help bring independent and much needed voices to the infoUSA Board - voices that will represent the interests of ALL stockholders. Please sign, date and return the enclosed BLUE proxy card today!

Dolphin’s nominees are committed to ensuring that the interests of all stockholders, not just Mr. Vinod Gupta, who holds 40% of the Company, are fully represented on the Board. And further, that the full Board holds top management, including Mr. Vinod Gupta, accountable.

A New Idea At infoUSA:
Building Real Stockholder Value Through Real Accountability

We are writing to you again because we believe that your infoUSA investment has been, and will continue to be, harmed by the failure of the full Board to rein in Mr. Vinod Gupta. We have catalogued numerous serious issues, including: misuse of corporate assets; allowing Mr. Vinod Gupta to increase his ownership interest, and thereby limit your future value opportunities; and his opportunistic $11.75 offer for your shares after publicly stating that they were worth $18 per share.

The Board has not addressed these serious issues. Instead, they point to the Company’s supposed success, particularly through acquisitions. But once again, they are not telling you the whole truth.

Consider three simple facts:

1.  
infoUSA has spent $600 million on acquisitions over the past ten years, but the Company’s current total value1 is only $704 million. That does not sound like success to us.
 
 
 
 
-------------------------------
1 The Company’s Total Enterprise Value consists of $135 million in long-term debt and $569 million in current market value of its issued and outstanding shares, as of May 11, 2006.
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
2.  
While top management has spent your money acquiring revenues, the Company’s profitability (EBITDA) is still at 2001 levels.
 
3.  
The stock price is down 18% since infoUSA missed 1st quarter analyst expectations on April 21, 2006.
