                                                           November 21, 1994
 
Dear Shareholder:
 
  The Annual Meeting of Shareholders of Citadel Holding Corporation is
scheduled to be held on Monday, December 12, 1994, 10:00 a.m., at The Four
Seasons Hotel, 300 South Doheny, Beverly Hills, California. Proxy materials
for this important meeting will be sent to you in the near future.
 
                                    CAUTION
 
  A dissident shareholder group led by Dillon Investors, L.P. has announced
its intention to start a proxy contest and/or consent solicitation in an
effort to gain control of your Company. Dillon's stated objective is to
replace your Board of Directors with their own hand-picked nominees. Dillon
may also propose that your Company be liquidated.
 
  Your Board of Directors urges you to reject any attempt by this dissident
group to take control of your Company. You are urged not to sign any proxies
and/or consent cards sent to you by the Dillon group. We will keep you
apprised of all new developments in connection with this matter.
 
  You should know that Craig Corporation, your Company's largest shareholder
with more than 24% of the shares outstanding, is committed to supporting
Citadel's management at the upcoming shareholders meeting.
 
  Be assured that we will vigorously oppose this dissident group's attempt to
take control of your Company and continue to act in the best interest of all
our shareholders.
 
  On behalf of your Board of Directors, thank you for your support.
 
                                                           Sincerely,

                                                           /Steve Wesson/
