Cheniere Adjourns Special Meeting of Stockholders Until January 29

Cheniere announced on January 15 that we adjourned our special meeting of stockholders due to a lack of a quorum, which will provide stockholders with additional time to consider the proposed charter amendments and the adoption of a stock incentive plan.

The meeting will reconvene at 10:00 a.m. on January 29, 2004, at Three Allen Center, 333 Clay Street, Suite 3400, Houston, Texas. The purpose of the meeting will be to consider the proposals to amend Cheniere’s charter and to adopt a stock incentive plan. No other business shall take place at the reconvened meeting.

It is not necessary for stockholders who have already voted by proxy to take any further action if they do not wish to change their votes. All additional proxies received up to January 29, 2004, will be counted at the reconvened meeting. All stockholders as of the original record date of November 25, 2003, will be entitled to vote by proxy or in person at the reconvened meeting.

To ensure that your shares are represented at the reconvened special meeting of stockholders, you must complete, sign, date, and promptly return the proxy card in the envelope that you received with your proxy materials.

We hope that all stockholders will take advantage of this opportunity. The attached news release regarding the meeting was sent to the news media on January 15.
