	$2.125 Convertible Exchangeable Preferred Stock, Series A

Callon Petroleum Company (the “Company”) has elected to redeem all of its outstanding shares of $2.125 Convertible Exchangeable Preferred Stock, Series A (the “Preferred Stock”). This notice of redemption and letter of transmittal (the “Letter”) is being mailed on June 13, 2005 to all holders of record of Preferred Stock as of the close of business on June 10, 2005. Our records indicate that you currently hold certificates representing shares of Preferred Stock. Those certificates MUST BE RETURNED in order to be redeemed or converted into shares of the Company’s common stock. The terms of the redemption are described below. Please complete Items 1-3, Item 5 and, if applicable, Item 6 of this Letter and return it along with your certificates to the address indicated in Item 4.

Redemption Terms. The Preferred Stock will be redeemed at a redemption price equal to $25.213 per share, plus $0.525347, representing all accrued and unpaid dividends to the redemption date. The redemption date for the Preferred Stock will be July 14, 2005. On the redemption date, the Preferred Stock will be deemed to cease to be outstanding, dividends will cease to accrue and all rights, other than the right to receive the redemption price, of any person other than the Company will cease, and the redemption price will become due and payable on each share of Preferred Stock. A holder of shares of Preferred Stock will not be entitled to receive the redemption price until the certificate(s) representing such holder’s shares of Preferred Stock and a completed copy of this Letter are delivered to the Company’s transfer agent at the address indicated in Item 4.

Conversion Terms. The conversion price of the Preferred Stock is $11.00. Each share of Preferred Stock is currently convertible into 2.273 shares of the Company’s common stock. The closing price of the Company’s common stock on the NYSE on June 10, 2005 was $14.46 per share. The right of holders of shares of Preferred Stock to exercise their conversion right shall terminate at the close of business on July 7, 2005, the fifth business day prior to the redemption date, provided that no default by the Company in the payment of the applicable redemption price shall have occurred and be continuing. If you wish to convert your shares of Preferred Stock into the Company’s common stock, the transfer agent must have received the certificates representing your shares of Preferred Stock and this completed Letter by July 7, 2005.

Beneficial Owners. Only a registered holder of shares of Preferred Stock may surrender Preferred Stock for redemption or conversion.
