Carlos: I have visited with Lance Schuler on this matter. The kind of provision you are talking about would need to be approved by Mark Metts, Tim Detmering, the President and General Counsel of ENA ( Lance has Haedicke's proxy to sign off for ENA), and the President and General Counsel of every affiliate that would be bound by the provision. I suggest when you get in that you get a copy of the corporate policy on this kind of thing from Lance. I trust all is well with you and your family. Congratulations on the birth. Jeff Carlos Sole@ENRON 04/02/2001 01:40 PM To: Jeffrey T Hodge/HOU/ECT@ECT cc: [email protected], Fred Mitro/HOU/ECT@ECT, Ben Jacoby/HOU/ECT@ECT, Sharon Hausinger/Enron@EnronXGate Subject: Non-Compete Provision Binding Affiliates Jeff, I am working on the divestiture of a project company that had been developing a power plant site in Illinois and as part of our proposed purchase and sale agreement, the purchaser has requested a non-compete obligation of 2.5 years with respect to the project and project company that we are selling that would bind both ENA and its Affiliates. I recall that previously there was a policy which required certain approvals (including Mark Metts of Corporate Development) for non-compete agreements that were binding on other entities beyond the immediate business unit involved in the transaction. Could you help us out and let us know whom we need to contact. Thanks. PS I am working on a legal risk memo for this transaction and will forward it to you a draft later today or early tomorrow as we are hoping to DASH and close on it by the end of this week.

---------------------- Forwarded by David M Gagliardi/TTG/HouInd on 06/23/2000 09:01 AM --------------------------- Tracy Ralston <[email protected]> on 06/22/2000 10:30:48 PM To: [email protected] cc: Subject: FW: True Orange Fax/E-Mail #56 -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, June 21, 2000 8:45 PM To: [email protected] Subject: True Orange Fax/E-Mail #56 True Orange Fax/E-Mail Service Volume 8, Fax/E-Mail #56, Wednesday, June 21, 2000 Jerry Scarbrough's True Orange, P. O. Box 26530, Austin, Texas 78755 - Phone 512-795-8536 Longhorns Get Pledge from Euless Trinity Defensive Back Braden Johnson, 6-2, 200, 4.4, a defensive back from Euless Trinity who came to one of Texas' three-day summer camps earlier this month, committed to the Longhorns Wednesday. Johnson, a hard-hitting safety who had 42 tackles last season for the 9-2 Trojans, who had one of the top defenses in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, is moving to quarterback this season. His father, David, told me his son decided to commit to the Longhorns because "the Texas coaches really impressed him with their coaching methods and with the classy way they operate. They were very open and very straightforward." David Johnson said his son also attended a TCU camp this summer and went to a Texas A&M camp last summer. He said several schools called his son in May, the month the NCAA allows schools to make one phone call to each recruit. He said calls came from coaches at Notre Dame, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Arkansas, TCU and others, but he said his son decided to commit to Texas and get the recruiting process behind him so he could concentrate on his senior season. Braden Johnson has strong athletic blood lines. David Johnson was on a football scholarship at Oklahoma State when he suffered a career-ending shoulder injury and David has two famous uncles for old-time football fans. One is Bill Johnson, who had a 20-year career as a player and coach with the San Francisco 49ers and who also coached with Paul Brown on the Cleveland Browns' staff. The other is Gil Johnson, the quarterback on the great SMU teams that featured Doak Walker and Kyle Rote. Braden Johnson is a three-sport star. He plays centerfield in baseball and runs on the 400-meter relay in track. He also is a good student. Johnson is the fifth high school star to commit to Texas this month. The others are WR-DB Brian Carter of The Woodlands, and OLs Jonathan Scott of Dallas Carter, Abe Robinson of Houston Jersey Village and Will Allen of Houston Cypress Falls. In addition, Alfio Randall, a super OL recruit a year ago, is on track to graduate from Blinn JC in December and he told me he will enroll at Texas in January. All five of the high school prospects who committed did so after attending one of the Longhorns' summer camps. Scott and Robinson are on virtually all of the national top 100 lists. RECRUITING NOTES: The top running back and the top quarterback in Texas both say they would like to commit early and the Longhorns are in strong contention for both. The RB is Cedric Benson of Midland Lee, who rushed for 3,526 yards and 51 touchdowns in leading Lee to a 16-0 season and it's second straight Class 5A state championships. Both those incredible totals are Class 5A records. The QB is Matt Nordgren of Dallas Bishop Lynch, who threw for 2,500 yards as a sophomore before suffering a broken collarbone last season that knocked him out of his teams' final five games. He still passed for 1,170 yards. . . The Longhorns already have commitments from two of the 24 members of the "Super Team" in Dave Campbell's Texas Football Magazine. They are Scott and Robinson. The only other member of the "Super Team" who has committed is Madisonville RB David Underwood, the Aggies' No. 1 RB target who announced last week that he is going to be a Michigan Wolverine. Allen made the second team and Carter made the third team. . . There are at least five super players I have seen who will be big recruiting targets next year. That's right ? they were so good as sophomores that every school in the country already knows about them. They are QB Vincent Young, 6-5, 195, 4.5, of Houston Madison; RB Selvin Young, 5-11, 188, 4.4, of Houston Jersey Village; DL Marco Martin, 6-4, 290, 4.7, of Mesquite; DE Travis Leitko, 6-5, 250, 4.7, of The Woodlands, and TE-OL Eric Winston, 6-6, 265, 5.0, of Midland Lee. Young ran for 2,204 yards last year in a tough district. Young threw for 1,007 yards and ran for 730 more as a sophomore, also in a tough league. Martin is so agile that he also plays fullback and so quick that he's a terrific pass rusher and run stopper. Leitko was a dominating force as a sophomore last year on The Woodlands' playoff team. Winston is a great athlete who was one of the stars on Lee's title team as a sophomore. Leitko and Young came to Texas' summer camp earlier this month. In the "did-you-know" department: Nebraska was 81-8 in the last seven football seasons. That makes the Huskers 80-5 against the rest of the world during that span, but only 1-3 against our Longhorns. * * * * My next fax will be whenever events warrant. * * * * The True Orange Fax Service includes at least 99 faxes a year and costs $99 ($79 by E-Mail).

We tried so hard to make things better for our kids that we made them worse. For my grandchildren, I'd like better. I'd really like for them to know about hand-me down clothes and homemade ice cream and leftover meatloaf sandwiches. I really would. I hope you learn humility by being humiliated, and that you learn honesty by being cheated. I hope you learn to make your bed and mow the lawn and wash the car. And I really hope nobody gives you a brand new car when you are sixteen. It will be good if at least one time you can see puppies born and your old dog put to sleep. I hope you get a black eye fighting for something you believe in. I hope you have to share a bedroom with your younger brother. And it's all right if you have to draw a line down the middle of the room, but when he wants to crawl under the covers with you because he's scared, I hope you let him. When you want to see a movie and your little sister wants to tag along, I hope you'll let her. I hope you have to walk uphill to school with your friends and that you live in a town where you can do it safely. On rainy days when you have to catch a ride, I hope you don't ask your 'driver' to drop you two blocks away so you won't be seen riding with someone as uncool as your Mom. If you want a slingshot, I hope your Dad teaches you how to make one instead of buying one. I hope you learn to dig in the dirt and read books. When you learn to use computers, I hope you also learn to add and subtract in your head. I hope you get teased by your friends when you have your first crush on a girl, and when you talk back to your mother that you learn what Ivory soap tastes like. May you skin your knee climbing a mountain, burn your hand on a stove and stick your tongue on a frozen flagpole. I don't care if you try a beer once, but I hope you don't like it. And if a friend offers you dope or a joint, I hope you realize he is not your friend. I sure hope you make time to sit on a porch with your Grandma and go fishing with your Uncle. May you feel sorrow at a funeral and joy during the holidays. I hope your Mother punishes you when you throw a baseball through a neighbor's window and that she hugs you and kisses you at Christmas time when you give her a mold of your hand. These things I wish for you: tough times and disappointment, hard work and happiness. To me, it's the only way to appreciate life. Send this to all of your friends that mean the most to you but, don't send it back to whoever sent it to you. They have already read it and you don't need to show them that you are a good friend. They already know! "We secure our friends not by accepting favors but by doing them." Paul Harvey - "Good Day"!

We enjoyed speaking with you regarding your plans for taking the classroom to the web and feel that there are numerous opportunities for Enron and UT to work together on this venture. As you requested, I am sending you additional information on the services that can be provided by Enron Broadband Services (EBS). EBS offers two distinct product offerings that could be provided to UT students. 1) EBS offers our customers a full spectrum of bandwidth services. This includes dark fiber, OCX-lambdas, DS3 and above circuits, and bandwidth management solutions. Our focus is to help the enterprise customer add value and flexibility to their bandwidth service needs with features such as bandwidth "on demand". EBS owns over 18,000 miles of fiber optic cable that provides EBS with an extensive network in the USA and Canada. 2) Enron offers a full turn-key streaming media service called e PowerTM MediaCast. This service can involve the entire management of the entire process from filming through encoding, hosting and streaming or to supply the specific services that a client could need. Each client would access their client's media through an URL embedded on the appropriate client website(s). The content can streamed live or stored to be played on-demand. EBS can deliver the streams at bit rates from 20kbps to 1Mbps or higher. There are no additional resources (hardware, software or human) required by a client to use our product. Our current customers has found the superior quality of e PowerTM MediaCast.has improved their ability to deliver a clear corporate philosophy and increase their customer retention. The e PowerTM MediaCast Network has a distributed server architecture supported by a private global fiber and satellite network (a pure Internet Protocol strategy) with embedded software intelligence that sets it apart from other network providers. The EBS e power TM private network has dedicated servers in over 200 cities in the USA and Canada. After the service is initiated, each client can access to reporting of the viewership statistics for your content on the EBS Intranet Site (www.epoweronline.com) that is updated on a daily basis. Each client is provided with a User ID and Password. EBS guarantees their customers a superior quality of service level. Our customers have found three major benefits. First, Enron stores our clients' content on our servers which reduces the strain on clients' central servers and Website. Second, Enron constantly monitors its clients' sites and updates its servers regularly to keep the data fresh. Finally, Enron sharply cuts the time it takes a viewer to receive our clients' content by delivering the media across Enron's private network and with the use of software (bandwidth operating system) that decides within milliseconds which Enron server can deliver the fastest. To do that Enron servers, which deliver our customer,s content, are located in over 200 cities in the US and Canada. This places your content close to the end user (typically, "one-hop" away), and allows up to 500,000 simultaneous viewers at any time. This enables high quality, rich media to be streamed without delay and congestion to an end user's desktop. In fact, Enron recently announced plans to install 18,000 of our media servers (Compaq and Sun) into our global Data Centers over a three year time period to extend our service domestically and internationally. We offer two internet sites to browse that demonstrates the true TV-like experience of the e PowerTM MediaCastexperience. 1) http://www.enron.net/mediacast a) User name and login ID are both - epower4. 2) http://www.enron.net/finance/srv_demo/enron/ms1250.html a) Once you are at this page called Today's Feature - click on the ACME TV and chose one of the channels b) Chose the speed of your video player (either REAL or WindowsMedia Player) c) Hit the play arrow button on the "Screen" that pops Finally, I estimate the cost per student to stream the course would be approximately $75.00. Please remember this price is for the streaming only, and is priced on a per MB delivered basis. In addition, there will be a flat monthly charge to administer the program. Production and encoding can be provided at an additional cost. Therefore, if the stream rates in my assumptions listed below change, our pricing will change slightly. As you will see the cost for the streaming would be a minimal and would not prohibit the students from taking the course on-line. I apologize that we do not have any example distance learning clips that we are able to share with you at this time. However, I would be happy to demonstrate our capabilities to you on your desktop, if you are interested. I look forward to discussing with you in greater detail how either of these services could be used to expand the reach of the University and its course offerings. I will contact your office at the beginning of next week to continue this discussion. If you would like to contact me prior to next week, please do not hesitate to call me at 713 853-3242.

The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved. CONCORD, N.H. (AP) - The state, environmentalists and Public Service Company of New Hampshire announced a compromise agreement Tuesday they say will cut air pollution. The plan would make New Hampshire the first state to pass legislation to reduce four major pollutants from fossil fuel-burning power plants, although Massachusetts and Connecticut have approved regulations on some of the gases. An attempt failed last spring to pass a more stringent bill that Public Service, a subsidiary of Berlin, Conn.-based Northeast Utilities, did not support or oppose. This agreement represents a version put together by environmentalists, the state and the utility. Ken Colburn, director of the Air Resource Division of the Department of Environmental Resources, said a compromise bill is better than no bill at all. "I'm not a believer in the jackpot theory of environmental progress," he said after the Statehouse news conference to announce the agreement. Rep. Jeb Bradley, chairman of the House Science, Technology and Energy Committee, acknowledged it is a "much smaller reduction proposal" than the earlier bill. But he said it is significant because it moves in the right direction. Gov. Jeanne Shaheen, who proposed last year's plan, said the amended Clean Power Act "is essential to the health of our citizens, the protection of our environment and our state's future economic success." Shaheen said the agreement means Public Service's three coal-burning plants in Bow, Portsmouth and Newington will have to reduce emissions of sulfur dioxide, the chief cause of acid rain; nitrogen oxide, which causes smog; carbon dioxide, which affects climate change, and eventually mercury, which threatens the health of humans and wildlife. Public Service president Gary Long said the agreement would cost the utility about $5 million annually, or less than 1 percent of a customer's average bill. Representatives of the Audubon Society, Society for the Protection of New Hampshire Forests, New Hampshire Lung Association, New Hampshire Lakes Association and others joined in applauding the agreement. Missing, however, was the Clean Water Coalition and the Public Interest Research Group, which panned the agreement. Steve Blackledge of PIRG said the bill does not require Public Service to reduce overall emissions, or to make on-site improvements to reduce emissions. "I still think we can get more, and need to get more in terms of real reductions," he said. Catherine Corkery of the New Hampshire Sierra Club, which is part of the Clean Power Coalition, said it was not asked to take part in the discussions on the bill, and Blackledge said PIRG also was not invited. However, Corkery said including carbon dioxide in the agreement "is awesome." "That sends a strong message on the federal level," she said. President Bush has delayed carbon dioxide cuts to allow further study of the economic consequences and global warming. Doug Bogen of Clean Water Action and the Clean Air Coalition, an ad hoc group of environmental and public health organizations, said the amended agreement doesn't go "nearly far enough. It doesn't require emission reductions, it allows unlimited trading of pollution credits." He predicted environmental groups and others will oppose the pact when the Legislature convenes. "We're hoping it can be made stronger and we are working with some legislators to do that, but obviously they have a lot of people supporting this," he said. Long said the less stringent amended bill "takes a more reasonable approach" to reducing mercury emissions, waiting to set a standard until more is known about it. It also retained the utility's ability to choose between cutting pollution from its own plants or buying "pollution credits" from other industries that can achieve more economical emission reductions. One of the complaints about the earlier credits was that they could be bought from companies so far away it would do no good for New Hampshire. Bradley said the measure also takes a slower approach on carbon dioxide controls and offers incentives for Public Service to buy pollution credits from other industries closer to New Hampshire. Blackledge still had problems with the credit buying. "The trading is so broad and gives so much leeway it will be far easier for the utility to trade than make on-site improvements," he said. Bradley said coal-burning plants are needed to provide diversity in energy supplies, and without the ability to buy pollution credits, Public Service could not continue to operate the plants. "What we've tried to do is cut a reasonable course, one that ensures the plants ... can continue to operate, but at the same time make environmental progress, and do it in a way that's cost-effective and maintains diversity of fuel resources." 713-853-9287 888-703-0309

The goal is to create a version of Linux that is impervious to outside attacks. Security Enhanced Linux, or SELinux, is a project under development by the NSA to create a version of the operating system that is more secure than the commercial distributions of Linux available from software vendors and the open-source community. The PGP Security division of Network Associates is working with the NSA to modify the Linux source code so that applications running on a Linux server or PC have reduced access to a Linux machine's underlying operating system. The aim is to give Linux servers the ability to shirk off "buffer overrun" and "format string" attacks, which take advantage of loose ends in Linux applications to access a server's core operating system and shut it down. A Linux worm dubbed "Lion" was recently identified as using this method to hack Linux servers. NSA has worked with other software firms to shore up other weaknesses in the operating system. Secure Computing has worked on the SELinux project to add its Type Enforcement technology to SELinux. Type Enforcement protects the operating system and applications by segmenting them into security "domains" with specifications on what types of files can be accessed by each domain. (For example, this could be used to prevent access to a configuration file through an application, such as Apache Web server). NSA is also working with VMWare to come up with a more secure user permissions system for allowing users with different security access to work on the same server. The good news for Linux users who are not high-level NSA operatives is that SELinux will be released to the open-source community once finished. This means that commercial Linux vendors could include SELinux security enhancements in future releases, resulting in more bulletproof Linux Web and database servers in enterprises. _______________________________________________________________ To contact Phil Hochmuth: Phil Hochmuth is a staff writer for Network World, and a former systems integrator.

I spoke with Gary Chapman regarding the fee. He references Section 6.5 of the Agreement which says "ECS will pay Dow a brining fee of twenty cents ($0.20) per ton (2,000 pounds) of salt removed from the ESC well ...... We need to come up with the legal arguement linking it to bbls of capacity created, as the language of the agreement bases the fee on the amount of salt removed. He said the $167,000 estimate came from using the Sonar measurement to determine the amount of salt removed. Lets talk Monday.

Subject: RE: Bridgeline Meeting and the First of my 10 daily emails I visited with John Higgins, Bridgeline's attorney and discussed the warehouseman's lien. I pointed out the Section 542 of the bankruptcy code requires them to turn over property of the estate and our position is they don't have a valid lien. I also indicated they were opening themselves up to damages for violation of the bankrupcty stay. John indicated that since this issue (whether Article 7 of the UCC applies to natural gas storage) would be a case of first impression they would be willing to litigate considering the amounts involved. Summary - They are not willing to release the gas. They are willing to release gas in excess of the amounts we owe to them, but only if stipulated that they are not waving their rights to assert the warehouseman's lien . At this point it is probably better to get some gas and then decide whether to litigate the remainder. Thoughts? [Zisman, Stuart] This sounds like the right way to go. Joe Parks should visit with the appropriate person at Bridgeline to figure out how much gas they are willing to release and try to get it sold. Stuart, the answers to your questions are inserted below. -----Original Message----- From: Zisman, Stuart Sent: Friday, January 11, 2002 11:02 AM To: Nemec, Gerald Cc: Redmond, Brian; Parks, Joe Subject: Bridgeline Meeting and the First of my 10 daily emails I think we need to crystallize, in very short order, what the approval process [Zisman, Stuart] Gerald when you are able to figure out what must be done please advise. will be for the sale of the Pad Gas in Storage Caverns #13/#14 to Bridgeline. I will send you via fax the proposed deal sheet. Several interesting points from the meeting: 1) Bridgeline is of the view that 3/12/2002 (we thought it was 4/402) is the last day on which they are obligated to reimburse Enron for the Dow Lease - Any thoughts? Who is right?; The contract states that they are obligated to reimburse through the earlier of July 1, 2002 or 114 days following the 4 BCF Date. The 4 BCF date is defined at the day of the last Enron Pad Gas Payment. The last Pad Gas Payment (for the month of November) was due on 12/10/01. Thus, the 114 days should run from 12/10/01, which puts right around 4/4/02. [Zisman, Stuart] The Bridgeline folks said something about an August date and then adding 110 days to that and then adding 114 days to that. Does that make any sense to you? 2) Their plan (assuming our deal goes through) is to amend and assume the existing lease - and get Dow to expressly release LRCI from any and all claims/liabilities/etc. following Bridgeline's assumption of the amended lease; This approach sounds reasonable. 3) Bridgeline indicated that Dow is of the opinion that approximately $167k is owed by Enron for dewatering brine removal fees ($0.20 per ton of salt removed) - I need your help to determine whether this is accurate; I don't see any basis for this in the agreement. The $0.20 per ton of salt removed fee, refers to barrels of capacity being created in the Cavern #1. This is related to the leaching operation. If the fee is related to the leaching operation, then they might be correct. (Accounting would need to verify their numbers though). If they are seeking a fee for brine removal during degassing, I don't think they have a basis for this fee. We need to understand their basis for the claim. [Zisman, Stuart] Brian would you please call Gary to find out what this is all about? 4) Bridgeline is desirous of having Cavern #1 (along with the various rights-of-way) conveyed sooner rather than later (and wondered whether we could expedite the approval process on this part of the deal). I don't know what the advantages/disadvantages there are to this but would love your input along with your thoughts on whether this is feasible or not; We have until July 1, 2002 to convey the Cavern #1. To the extent we wanted to wait to wrap up all our issues and convey at that time, we are not harmed under the Partnership agreement. Obviously we retain any risks associated with ownership of the cavern. [Zisman, Stuart] Is there any downside to doing it early? Might we lose negotiating leverage? If not, we should consider trying to do this as a good faith gesture. 5) We indicated that we thought the approval process would take approximately 30 days from the day that we reached what we believed were mutually agreeable terms with Bridgeline (does this sound right?) - The goal is to be done no later than March 1, 2002; and I think this sounds reasonable. 6) Eric Booth is going to call Robert Morgan to get the support for the $550k of expenses relating to the dewatering line and the flowline.

See the attached Contract Status matrix. All of the proposed agreements in the top half of the matrix also have been blessed, as have the Secondary Agreements.. ----- Forwarded by Barton Clark/HOU/ECT on 02/22/2001 12:19 PM ----- Barton Clark 02/21/2001 08:48 PM To: [email protected], [email protected] cc: Subject: Stone and Webster/Black & Veatch/Other Development Agreements FYI, attached are the forms of design and engineering contracts for the Ft.Pierce project. The Technical Design Services Agreement will be cloned - one for the Facility improvements and one for the King Plant improvements, and the Black & Veatch agreement relates to design of the transmission upgrades. The two Technical Design Services Agreements ( with Stone and Webster ) will be amended and restated to be full blown Turbo Park compliant EPC contracts ( covering procurement and construction, as well as design ) with Stone and Webster ( assuming its estimate and delivery date are acceptable), at the time the project goes into Turbo Park. The Black & Veatch agreement will not be bifurcated, as Black & Veatch will not be the EPC contractor, but we will expect the EPC contractor for the transmission improvements to warrant the work. One issue we have is how to get Black & Veatch to give a Turbo Park compliant transmission improvements design warranty, but we may be able to get the EPC contractor to warrant the design and the improvements ( Turbo Park did not raise this issue, but it may in the future, so we need to be thinking about that ). The Black & Veatch agreement also may be assigned to FPUA, along with the transmission upgrades EPC contract, as FPUA will own the transmission improvements and supervise their construction. The reason for bifurcating the agreements is to allow work on "soft cost" items to proceed now - as required to keep the project on schedule - until we can close the deal with FPUA/FMPA and get into Turbo Park, where the "hard cost" procurement and construction expenditures can be made without putting the project on balance sheet. I'll forward the form Turbo Park EPC Contract under separate cover. Sorry about the late deliveries, but maybe you will be able to pick these up in the am. ----- Forwarded by Barton Clark/HOU/ECT on 02/21/2001 08:37 PM ----- Barton Clark 02/08/2001 04:43 PM To: David Fairley/HOU/ECT@ECT, Mathew Gimble/HOU/ECT@ECT, Bruce Golden/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT, Darrell Stovall/NA/Enron@Enron, George McCormick/HOU/ECT@ECT cc: Lisa Bills/Enron@EnronXGate, Catherine Clark/Enron@EnronXGate, Roseann Engeldorf/Corp/Enron@ENRON, Herman Manis/Corp/Enron@ENRON Subject: Stone and Webster/Black & Veatch/Other Development Agreements Attached are Turbo Park and accounting "approved" forms of the Technical Design Services Agreement between FPRP and Stone & Webster ( TDSA) and the Agreement for Professional Engineering Services between FPRP and Black & Veatch ( B&V Agreement). Each form has to now be fashioned to reflect the business deal/payment terms/etc. Note that the Scope of Work on the TDSA underwent substantial modification to conform with 97-10 requirements, and the attached draft Scope of Work only deals with the Facility ( as defined in the TDSA ), and not the "improvements" ( which term was included in the draft Tasking Letter from which the Scope of Work was fashioned).I assume we will need to "clone" this TDSA except for a different Scope of Work description to deal with such "improvements" other than the Facility ( ie, I assume these are the King Plant improvements). The TDSA is calculated to put as much of the Turbo Park-approved EPC in front of Stone & Webster at the earliest possible date, so that the amendment and restatement of the TDSA to make it a full blown Turbo Park EPC Contract will be more straightforward. Right now, it is contemplated FPRP would assign its interests as Construction Manager under the TDSA to ENA, and the TDSA would be concurrently amended and restated as set forth above, both at the time the FPRP goes into Phase II of Turbo Park. At the time FPRP goes into Phase I of Turbo Park, I believe the TDSA can remain an FPRP obligation ( like any other development agreement signed by a project entity that is subsequently transferred into Turbo Park). Since the TDSA now only involves soft cost expenditures, FPRP can sign it as soon as it is negotiated and agreed by Stone & Webster and before it goes into Phase I of Turbo Park. The B& V Agreement, which was modeled on Black & Veatch's agreement with FPUA, also can be signed prior to going into Phase I as soon as it is negotiated with Black & Veatch. Like the TDSA, there are commercial terms that need to be added. It was modeled on the FPUA Black & Veatch Agreement because that should speed negotiation with B & V on its terms, and we may want to assign the B & V Agreement to FPUA ( and they too would be comfortable with its terms). My understanding is that FPUA is supervising the transmission work and will be driving the design and engineering of the transmission facilities, so it may make sense for FPRP to assign the B & V Agreement to FPUA and simply retain the obligation to pay B & V ( up to a cap). I also have attached a revised version of the spreadsheet Mathew prepared listing FPRP contracts already entered into by FPRP ( the so-called secondary development agreements) and those proposed to be entered into before we go into Phase I of Turbo Park. Herman and Lisa, let me know which of the secondary agreements you have not previously reviewed ( those marked NO re your review ) that you need to review, and I will endeavor to furnish them to you. Let me know if you have any questions.
Suggested changes are highlighted below.

We hope to have agreed on the Q&A's by then and to send it out the announcement on Thursday. John To be sent to: All Enron Europe, all employees in Japan, all Global Markets and all VPs and up around the company Enron has established several wholesale businesses in Japan in the last year including Metals, Power Plant Development (via our investment in EnCom), Coal, LNG & Weather. We see significant opportunities in each of these businesses and we will continue to expand our presence in Japan in order to capture these opportunities. However, while Japan continues to make progress towards a liberalized electricity market, significant barriers to power trading remain under the current interim market structure. Until further tangible steps are taken to improve third party access for electricity in Japan, we will suspend our power marketing efforts and focus on the significant opportunities that currently exist in our other wholesale businesses. [Any statement regarding our existing power sales commitment?] Once the necessary regulatory changes have been completed we expect to aggressively pursue Enron's traditional position as the leading buyer and seller of electricity in every deregulated market. We are making a number of organization changes in order to better align our resources with the opportunities in the Japanese market. [deleted text] Joe Hirl our President of Enron Japan will move to the Global Markets group and lead a team that will focus on developing all our Global Markets opportunities in Japan especially Weather, Oil, LNG, Coal, and Shipping. We expect to continue our general recruiting of Japanese nationals and as President of Enron Japan, Joe will continue to provide the overall business leadership to both recruiting and the Analyst and Associate program in Japan. The Finance origination team headed by Jeremy Thirsk will continue to report to Joe and also move to Global Markets. Our power trading group led by Morton Erik Pettersen will transition into other roles around Enron. The Equity/FX/Interest rate team which is a part of Global Markets has two employees in the Tokyo office today and they expect to expand their efforts throughout the year. The EnCom group, which is our power plant development business (with minority partners) and headed by Carey Sloan will continue its efforts in developing power plants in Japan. We are pleased with the progress we are making on a number of sites and EnCom will continue to report to the Enron Europe Office of the Chairman. Our Metals team headed by Kazunari Sugimoto will continue to report through Enron Metals in London. By May we expect Enron Credit to have two to three employees in Tokyo pursing the Credit Derivative business. These employees remain in Enron Credit , a part of Enron Europe. EBS has two employees headed by Jim Weisser and this team expects to expand by year end. The Industrial Markets team also expects to have two employees in the Tokyo office in the next couple of months. In the last seven months the commercial support services for Japan have been transitioned to London for support and this is not changing. Jane McBride heads the legal team and will continue to functionally report to Mark Evans, General Counsel in London. The RAC function will continue to report to Ted Murphy, head of RAC for Enron Europe. The Risk Management and Accounting team is headed by Jan-Erland Bekeng will continue to functionally report to Fernley Dyson in London. The IT, HR, Tax and real estate teams will also continue to functionally report to London. Nick O'Day who heads the Public Affairs group (Government & Regulatory Affairs and the Public Relations) in Japan will report to the Enron Europe Office of the Chair with a Public Relations functional reporting to Jackie Gentle in London and a Government Affairs functional reporting to Rick Shapiro in Houston. We anticipate that his team's efforts will be primarily directed to supporting the EnCom power plant development team but they will also continue to provide support for Global Markets, EBS & Industrial Markets. We have already made considerable progress in breaking into the Japanese markets across a wide range of Enron businesses and we anticipate that this will provide significant profit growth for years to come. Through these current changes we can demonstrate our ability to be flexible and target our resources where they will realise the most immediate value for the company.
November 30, 2001 Notice No. 01-410 TO: NYMEX DIVISION MEMBERS AND MEMBER FIRMS NYMEX DIVISION CLEARING MEMBERS FROM: J. Robert Collins, Jr., President SUBJECT: NEW TEMPORARY NYMEX RULE: EXCHANGE OF OTC ENERGY OPTIONS FOR NYMEX ENERGY OPTIONS ____________________________________________________________________________ _____ Yesterday, the Exchange distributed Notice to Members No. 01-409, which summarized a new temporary procedure going into effect today that permits the exchange of OTC energy options for NYMEX energy options (EOO). As an informational follow-up to yesterday's notice, this notice includes the text of the new temporary EOO rule. NEW TEMPORARY NYMEX RULE 6.21E Rule 6.21E. EXCHANGE OF OTC ENERGY OPTIONS FOR, OR IN CONNECTION WITH NYMEX ENERGY OPTIONS (Temporary Rule) (A) (1) An exchange of Exchange energy options for, or in connection with, an over-the counter ("OTC") energy options product (or an OTC product with similar characteristics) (hereafter an exchange of options for options or "EOO") consists of two discrete, but related, transactions; an OTC options transaction and an Exchange options transaction. At the time such transaction is effected, the buyer and seller of the Exchange options must be, respectively, the seller and the buyer of the OTC options. The OTC options component shall involve the commodity underlying the related futures contract to the Exchange options contract (or a derivative, by-product or related product of such commodity). The quantity covered by the OTC options must be approximately equivalent to the quantity covered by the Exchange options contracts. This temporary rule shall terminate thirty (30) days following the effective date of the implementation of the rule. (2) Restriction on Eligible Contracts. EOO transactions may be effected for transactions in any of the Exchange's energy options contracts. (3) Restriction on Transactions. An EOO that establishes a NYMEX options position for both buyer and seller shall not be permitted on the first business day following the expired NYMEX contract. (B)(1) The report of an EOO transaction shall be given on the Floor of the Exchange during the hours of futures trading. (2) EOO transactions are permitted until trading terminates on the last day of trading in the applicable expiring options contract month. C) A report of such EOO transaction shall be submitted to the Exchange by each Clearing Member representing the buyer and/or seller. Such report shall identify the EOO as made under this Rule and shall contain the following information: a statement that the OTC options component of the EOO complied with any applicable CFTC regulatory requirements at the time the EOO was entered into between the buyer and seller, a statement that the EOO has resulted or will result in a change of payments or other such change, the kind and quantity of the options, the price at which the options transaction is to be cleared, the names of the Clearing Members and customers and such other information as the Exchange may require. Such report (form) shall be submitted to the Compliance Department by 12:00 noon, no later than two (2) Exchange business days after the day of posting the EOO on the Floor of the Exchange. (D)(1) Each buyer and seller must satisfy the Exchange, at its request, that the transaction is a legitimate EOO transaction. Upon the request of the Exchange, all documentary evidence relating to the EOO, including relevant OTC documentation, shall be obtained by the Clearing Members from the buyer or seller and made available by the Clearing Members for examination by the Exchange. Additionally, if the buyer or seller is a Member/Member Firm, the Exchange may obtain the information directly from such person(s). (2) No EOO that is linked to or contingent upon entry into a second, offsetting OTC options transaction may be transacted at any time. (3) Failure by a buyer or seller, or its Clearing Member to satisfy the Exchange that an EOO transaction is bona fide shall subject such buyer or seller, if a Member/Member Firm, or the Clearing Member to disciplinary action. Such disciplinary action, depending on the gravity of the offense, may be deemed to be a major offense of the Exchange's rules. Further, if the buyer or seller is not a Member/Member Firm, the Exchange may conduct a hearing before the Business Conduct Committee to limit, condition or deny access to the market. (E) Each EOO transaction shall be posted by the Floor Members and cleared through the Exchange in accordance with normal procedures and by the Clearing Members involved. (F) All omnibus accounts and foreign brokers shall submit a signed EOO reporting agreement in the form prescribed by the Exchange to the Exchange?s Compliance Department. Such Agreement shall provide that any omnibus account or foreign broker identified by a Clearing Member (or another omnibus account or foreign broker) as the buyer or seller of an EOO pursuant to Rule 6.21A(C), shall supply the name of its customer and such other information as the Exchange may require. Such information shall be submitted to the Exchange?s Compliance Department by 12:00 noon no later than two (2) Exchange business days after the day of posting the EOO on the Floor of the Exchange. Failure by an omnibus account or foreign broker to submit either the agreement or the particular EOO information to the Exchange may result in a hearing by the Business Conduct Committee to limit, condition or deny access of such omnibus account or foreign broker to the market.
Dear Richard, As requested, please find hereinbelow the different sections of Law No. 25,188 of Public Ethics (PEL) and of our criminal code (CC) that could be in play in this matter. Please notice that we have recently discovered through our criminal lawyer the unpublished opinion of the Anticorruption Office dlivered at the enquiry of the Secretary of Communications. Some of the ideas therein expressed could benefit Mr. X in case than a specific investigation or challenge is made. We will work in a memo to illustrate on the matter. Section 13, PEL: It is incompatible with public office: a) to manage, administer, represent, sponsor, provide any advise, or, by any other means, render services to any person that negotiates or has a concession or is a supplier of the State or performs activities regulated by the same, so long as the relevant public office position has a direct competence with respect to the engagement, achievement, negotiation or control of such concessions, benefits or activities; b) to be a supplier, either on its behalf or on behalf of a third party, of any State body where the relevant person is an officer. Section 15, PEL: If at the moment of his appointment, the public officer is held to be within any of the incompatibilities mentioned in Section 13, he must: a) resign to such activities as a condition precedent to assuming the position. b) refrain himself from intervening, during the performance of his duties as an officer, in matters related to the persons with whom or issues in which he were connected with for the past three (3) years or where he has a corporate participation. In such circumstances, those acts could be considered null and void and generate the responsibility mentioned in section 17 of the abovementioned law that provides: Section 17, PEL: Notwithstanding the rights of any third party acting in good faith, in the event that the acts performed by the persons comprised in Section 1 are within the scope of Sections 13, 14 and 15, the same shall be absolutely invalid and void. In case of the issuance of an administrative act, such acts shall be absolutely invalid and void pursuant to the terms of Section 14 of law No. 19,549. The concession companies or other counter parties shall be severally liable for any damages caused to the State by these acts. Section 173, CC: Fraudulent administration Notwithstanding the general provision of the above-mentioned Section, the following shall be considered special cases of fraud and shall be subject to the penalties established therein[prison of one month to six years]: ...7) who, due to any applicable law, authority or legal act, is in charge of the management, administration or care of assets or economic interests belonging to a third party, with the purpose of seeking on its behalf or on behalf of a third party an illegal profit or of causing damage, infringes the duty of care, damaging the entrusted interests or illegitimately forces the owner of the same;... Section 256, CC: Passive Corruption The public officer who, on its behalf or through any third party, receives money or any other grant or accepts a direct or indirect promise, in order to act, delay the performance or omit to act with respect to anything related to his office, shall be punished with confinement or prison from one to six years and perpetual disqualification to hold a public position. Section 256 (bis), CC: Influence peddling Who, on its behalf or through any third party, asks for or receives money or any other grant or accepts a direct or indirect promise, in order to illegally influence a public officer so as to make the latter act, delay the performance or omit to act with respect to anything related to his office, shall be punished with confinement or prison from one to six years and life disqualification to hold a public position.. Section 258, CC: Active Corruption Who, direct or indirectly, grants or offers benefits seeking any of the behaviours referred in articles 256 and 256 (bis), first paragraph, shall be punished with prison from one to six years. If the grant was made or offered to obtain any of the referred behaviours by articles 256 bis, second paragraph and 257, the punishment will be of prison from two to six years. If it was a public officer, he will be punished with special disqualification from two to six years in the first case and from three to ten years in the second one. Section 258 (bis), CC: Influence peddling Who grants or offers to a public officer of another State, direct or indirectly, any value or other benefits as donations, favours, promises or advantages, in order to illegally influence him so as to make, as exchange, the latter act or omit to act with respect to anything related to his office related to any transaction of economic or commercial nature, shall be punished with confinement from one to six years and life disqualification to hold a public position. Section 268 (3), CC: Affidavit Omission or Falsification Who, under law and in view of its position, is required to file a patrimonial affidavit and maliciously omits to do so, shall be punished with prison from fifteen days to two years and perpetual disqualification. The violation shall be deemed such when, upon sufficient notification demanding compliance, the relevant person fails to comply with the requested obligations within the terms foreseen by applicable laws. The same penalty shall be applicable to anyone who maliciously falsifies or omits to include in the referred affidavits any data or information that is required to be included in accordance with any applicable law and regulations.

uggggghhhh!!! what a complete and utter pr--k!! i am SO annoyed reading that story! so even aside from the evening with your parents (which approaches being understandable) he never was mature at all. i don't have anything insightful to add to this situation- he appeared so genuine and wonderful, but deep inside, he is a Californian....i have never been impressed with California men in general- too self important and unduly cocky. his loss completely, which you know. At least you have your plane ticket to London! I'm so excited for you- you world traveller! You should send out a bulk email update when you return so that all your friends and family stay informed on your exciting life....Some friends of mine from NYC who now live in SF are coming in town this weekend, and we're going to a benefit party at the Zoo. should be fun. i thought of you also because the symphony called and invited me to opening night of the Connoisseur Series- wish you were going to be here!

In addition, a sweep would never happen if you were lucky enough to face UT - can you say better QB, RBs, WRs, and Defense. Besides, we have turned the corner after our embarrassing loss to OU (the #2 team in the country). I feel pretty good about our chances the rest of the way. Face it, the SEC is having a down year. It happens to all Conferences. It's just that this down year has enabled LSU a few chances to tear down the goalposts (and against the #11 team in the country - how sad is that). And far be it from me to defend the Aggies, but which school was the one to back out of that contract a few years back? See you in the Shreveport.

There are some pretty interesting college football predictions flying around! After their incredible victory last Saturday night, some folks have LSU going to the Cotton Bowl this year. I would love to see LSU sweep UT this year in yet one more major college sport-------basketball (NCAA tournament), baseball (College World Series), and, yes, football in the Cotton Bowl this year. However, it would be just as sweet to wip up on our old football nemesis---The Aggies. Although I think the Tigers would have to be a little more careful, since the Aggies occasionally spice up their offense with a crazy "REEEEEEEE-Verse" play or maybe even a pass on first down. We can only hope that one of these situations occur! GEAUX TIGERS! http://www.geaux.com/sports/foot/news/001024bowls.htm CKL

Subject: Steve Well Patrice, things at home are starting to get hectic again. I really don't know what to do. Steve's being very disrespectful again. He has threatened to kill me in front of Siera and for the first time, I'm scared. I feel that I've desperately wanted a happy family, home, etc... so bad, and now that I have this home, I don't know if it was the right thing to do. I say this because I depleted almost all of my cash, and if he chooses not to contribute any $, I'll experience severe financial difficulties. This will push me to have to jump ship, just to get more money. I don't know if I can go through this anymore. I feel that staying with him has done more harm than good for me & the kids. I don't know what more he could want from me. I work, cook, clean, take care of him, the kids and what ever else. He has a pretty easy life, thanks to the things that I do to make sure of that. I'm afraid, and don't know what to do.

I am not comfortable with basing decisions for further investigations on such a shallow depth, in leau of the fact that many times water soluble constituents may horizonatlly move vertically from surface shallow depths into the lower subsurface areas. This is indeed the case for chromates. I based my recommendations for metal concentrations on the federal RCRA Subtitle C hazardous waste target levels for metals and evaluated the TPH and BTEX levels with the underground storage tank guidlines for California. There were references to a 1989 document in the "Baseline" report for specific parameters, but there may have been an update to target contamination level requirements since that date and therefore, I used 10,000 ppm which is a general action level for most states for total petroleum hydrocarbons. Again, I did not evaluate the mercury or the loading rack issues. One last issue. As you know, identification of contamination is usually accomplished by sight observations of visible contamination, knowledge of processes and or history. Report results of the surface contamination do not show there to be an immediate environmental concern. Due to the age of the facility, there may be concerns which were not identified in the reports. However, based upon the locations of the preliminary samplings which were conducted throughout the facility, it appears that the information presented in the reports would be adequate to address suspected contamination at the facility.

ENA, under a servicing agreement, is the servicer of the assets. i am attaching for your information the servicing guidelines in the agreement. the major restriction is that ENA cannot sell assets for less than the contributed value into the structure. any EARLY warning of a potential sale of any of these assets would be greatly appreciated so we can check whether any restrictions apply and be ready, as there are some logistics involved. an email to donna lowry, mary heinitz and myself would be wonderful. if you do not do this, you may get on donna's list. of course i can't speak for her as to the repercussions envisioned, but let me suffice it to say that i am glad i am not on her list. at least that i know of. 2. a number of these assets also have raptor hedges in place in addition to being in the velocity structure. only the portion of the investment that was on ENA's balance sheet was hedged. if an asset is sold that has been "raptorized", the swap will need to be promptly terminated/notional amounts adjusted etc. again, give us as much notice as you can. 3. we also need notice (AHEAD OF TIME) of any follow on investments in the same merchant assets, exchanges of our interest or further fundings because STUFF will have to be done. i will not bore you with the details, but this STUFF cannot be done in ONE MINUTE contrary to the popular opinion of some business types whose names i will not mention here. we also are obligated to provide quarterly reports of the investments which describe any modifications to the investments during that calendar quarter. the first report is due april 11, 2001 for the first quarter of this year. we will be asking for your input with respect to your investments at the end of march. 4. lists of assets currently in velocity and in raptor are attached fyi. << File: SERVICING GUIDELINES.doc >> << File: All Velocity Asset SCHEDULE.doc >> << File: Raptor I 2001 list.doc >> Lisa J.

Jim, I am not too familiar with the ISO program. I think they treat load curtailments as the equivalent of spinning reserve and pay as if it were spinning reserve? I don't know how participation-friendly the program is for SCs. I know that based on energy price signals we may at times try to agree with the customer to reduce the customers load so that we can resell the energy purchased for that customer. However, I am not too sure whether we go through the hoops to bid and prove we deserve an ancillary reserve payment. You may want to check with Jubran and Neil on the commodity desk.

Our CA attorneys prepared a summary of the CPUC action, which is provided below. ENRON ACTIONS: Most of the calls we've received from EES have concerned the CPUC's proposed requirement that retail customers be forced to retain their interruptible contracts for their full five-year terms. We have learned that Enron has customers or potential customers on both sides of this issue -- we have customers who want to get out of the contracts and customers who want to stay on the programs. After discussion with Doug Condon and others, we have decided to stand on the sidelines and not take a position on that issue. Please feel free to call one of us with comments or questions. Sue Mara (415) 782-7802, Jeff Dasovich -7822, Mona Petrochko -7821. PREPARED SUMMARY: Here is a preview of the Commission's latest actions in response to the "crisis" in the California electric market. In short, the Commission has instituted an Investigation into operation of the interruptible load programs of the three UDCs, and the effect of these programs on energy prices, other demand responsiveness programs, and the reliability of the electric system. The item which has gotten the most "press" from the OII so far is the proposed temporary suspension of the tariff provisions of the three UDCs that allow customers to opt out of their interruptible program contracts during the 30 day window commencing November 1st. The Commission is using its authority under PUC Section 743 ( which gives the Commission specific authority to amend interruptible contracts between the UDCs and qualified heavy industrials) to propose such suspension. Although parties are allowed to comment on the suspension by this Thursday (the 12th), the Commission does have the apparent authority to effect the change and it will most likely proceed with the suspension. Apart from the enforced extension of the interruptible contracts, however, the OII potentially could have broader ramifications. The intent of the OII is to examine all interruptible, curtailable, and demand responsiveness programs being currently offered and/or proposed in California, and to determine how these programs can best be structured and/or reformulated to serve the Commission's goal of ensuring reliable and reasonably priced electric service within California (especially for the summer of 2001). It is hard to tell exactly what the Commission has in mind. However, it is possible that such reformulation of curtailable/demand responsiveness programs could interfere with Enron's ability to make interruptible/ demand responsive deals with customers. Moreover, the OII is not merely looking at larger customers. It states as one of the purposes of the rulemaking the identification of if and how smaller customers can participate in curtailable programs. Specifically, the OII states that "we need to examine the ability of smaller customers to participate; the development of rate design and incentive polices of such participation; a cost/benefit analysis of such programs; and the marketing of any such programs."

Bill/Philippe- Below is a summary of the major problems which occurred the past 96 hours and the steps taken to mitigate the damage and risk. Enron Center North (1400 Smith) As a result of the flooding downtown, approximately six skyscrapers had their electrical vaults flooded and began to cause cascading problemd in the electrical grid downtown. The net result was the loss of one of the two 35kv circuits which serve 1400 Smith. We (engineers, EES Maint, electrical subs) believe at the time the circuits blew we shifted from three phase to single phase power, which caused an imbalance in the load to the building. Consequently, UPS "C" which serves a portion of the Lv 34 Data Ctr, the Rolm phone switch, and a protion of the Traders floors lost a circuitboard, and blew two internal fuses. This power degradation caused PDU "S" on Lv 34 to trip its main breaker and shutdown power load to servers and equipment on this PDU. This occurred shortly after Noon on Saturday. Response/Restoration > UPS "D" transferred load from UPS "C" as the N+1 back up and carried the full load of the UPS loss as designed > EPSC/electrical sub (Henderson Electric); EES Maint; IT worked together to power down systems to begin repair work by 4:00pm Saturday > EPSC/EES Maint coordinated with Pillar/Henderson Elec to obtain replacement parts and begin the repairs. By 9:30pm all repairs to UPS"C" had been made and the system bought back on line. As a measure of extra protection the back up genset for Enron Ctr North was in operation > Reliant Energy restored the circuit at approximately 10:30pm Saturday evening > EPSC/EES Maint and subs conducted a thorough review of all electrical and back up systems Saturday evening > Enron Network IT Operations began restoration of all affected systems Saturday evening > EPSC/EES Maint obtained diesel fuel and topped off all gensets Saturday in case of additional problems and due to fuel consumption during the outage Other Building damage was limited to flooding in the tunnels, and water damage/flooding to portions of the Body Shop on Lv B-1 Enron Center South (1500 Louisiana) Impact/Damage Summary > Levels 8 & 9 received very limited amounts of water from the core area elevator shafts and exterior curtainwall. There was no exposure to water on any systems or network cabling during the entire period. (Response) Crews contained and cleaned all water as it traced into the building. > ALL IDF closets on Lvs 3-5 Traders Floors remained dry throughout the duration of the rains/flooding on Friday & Saturday > Lv 6 received some water from Lv 7. (Response) The area was contained and cleaned. No additional damage beyond Tuesday evenings flooding occurred > Due to extreme street flooding and water pressure, a 10" sanitary sewer line tied into ECS burst on Friday evening causing extensive flooding of Lv B-1 area (approximately 4-6 inches of water in the basement. (Response) Clark & Way Engr was able to install a temporary plug in the line to stop the on going flood waters from penetrating the basement. Clean up has continued throughout the weekend > Due to the extreme flooding and water pressure, the water seal of the Reliant Vault burst early Saturday and flooded the electrical vault room with 24-30" of water. This resulted in a complete loss of power at approximately 1:30pm on Staurday afternoon. The back up systems engaged and operated per design to support the Data Ctr and Traders Floors. The temporary cooling tower went off line. Prior to the flooding Clark had been in the process of tieing in the temporary feed into the back up system by 7-1-01 in prep for the migration (Response) * Clark used back up water pumps to pump out and clean the Reliant electrical vault, as well as maintained operation of the back up systems * The Data Ctr AHU's were kept on line with the dehumidifiers/blowers to modulate the airflow in the Data Ctr. EPSC had Way Engr techs use temp/humidity probes to monitor the areas. The recordings indicated temps on Lvs 8 & 9 did not exceed 78 degrees and relative humidity did not exceed 68% during the outage * Clark/Fisk Elec/EPSC coordinated desing efforts and obtained gear on an emergency basis and completed the tie in off the temporary coolong tower to the generators by 10:30pm * Reliant Energy is still cleaning and replacing gear in th vault room. Presntly (AT 11:00PM Sunday) we have one circuit operational in the building and 50% of the Reliant gear on line). We are still operating all systems safely on the back up sytems for the past 36 hours. It is expected Relaint will be complete by 7:00am. Clark; the engineers and MEP subs shall be conducting a thorough system review and repirs as required of all systems throughout the building during the coming week. In summary, the back up systems in both facilities did engage and operate as designed; however, due to the extreme conditons and stress placed upon the systems the facility held up extremely well. I would also like to note throughout the ordeal beginning Friday evening through Sunday, everyone (Enron NetWorks;EES FacilitiesClark Const;Way Engring;Fisk Electric;Henderson Electric; KW-Pillar;Hines) did an outstanding job under enourmous pressure and the most severe conditions I have seen in downtown Houston. Communication, around the clock work and cool heads managed to assess damage and develop action/restoration plans to facilitate repairs for Monday business Let me know if you need further details on specific issues or items. regards- Henry
NETWORK WORLD FUSION FOCUS: PHIL HOCHMUTH on LINUX Today's focus: Will Linux be a hit or miss on the corporate desktop? 03/15/00 Dear Wincenty Kaminski, Today's focus: Will Linux be a hit or miss on the corporate desktop? --------------------------------------------- By Phil Hochmuth So far this year, the buzz about Linux in enterprise networks has focused on servers and embedded systems, with the growth of Linux severs being most heralded. According to IDC, a research firm based in Framingham, Mass., Linux was the fastest-growing server operating system last year, with a 93% growth rate over the year before. Linux was the second most-shipped operating system in 1999 after Windows NT, capturing 24% of new licenses shipped. As for the embedded market, Linux has emerged as an ideal platform for network appliances, because the system can be modified to handle specialized, dedicated tasks very well. Companies such as Cobalt Networks, Picazo and Progressive Systems have announced Linux-based appliances, ranging from Web servers to PBXs to firewalls. But what of the open source hacker,s dream of &Linux on every desktop?8 Sure, Linux on the desktop has become more accessible than ever, with colorful, shrink-wrapped boxes of Caldera, Red Hat and Corel Linux now available at places like CompUSA. However, analysts have said that Linux,s growth in the enterprise will be limited to the macro and micro areas of network servers and embedded operating systems. According to IDC, Linux currently runs on only 4% of U.S. desktops. The hold Microsoft Windows has on the desktop market will remain strong, analysts say, despite such factors as Microsoft,s antitrust problems and the surging popularity of Linux. Even some Linux executives are skeptical of their product,s desktop future. Recently, SuSE CEO Roland Dyroff downplayed Linux,s future on desktops. Dyroff said, &given the lack of applications available, we really can't claim it as being competitive on the desktop yet.8 A recent survey by Survey.com gives more hope for Linux desktops. According to the survey of 1,640 enterprise network managers, open source operating systems are used on 10% of desktops, with the number jumping to a surprising 23% of enterprise desktops by 2002. Despite the mix of numbers being thrown around, two important factors that will determine the success of Linux as an enterprise client desktop are: a standardized, easy-to-use graphical user interface (GUI) and available applications. One company that is working to make Linux more user friendly is Palo Alto-based Eazel, which is designing a next-generation file management system and user interface to run on top of the Linux kernel. According to Eazel,s Web site, the company,s goal is to bring Linux to the masses and &do it in a way that appeals to today's Linux users and to mere mortals.8 The company was founded by a group of former Apple executives, and is allied with the Gnome project, which has been doing extensive Linux desktop environment development for several years. Eazel is due to have a product out by the middle of this year. With an intuitive, icon-based file management environment, Eazel is hoping its user interface will be an improvement over the two current Linux GUIs, Gnome and KDE, and will help standardized the look and feel of Linux for &regular8 users. For enterprise mangers who have already embraced Linux on the server side, this development will be worth keeping an eye on. On the applications side, several office productivity suites have been available for some time, such as Sun,s StarOffice suite and KOffice for the KDE desktop. Corel has also ported its office products, such as WordPerfect, over to Linux to complement its own distribution of the operating system. While there have been recent rumors (started by Linux Care Vice President Arthur Tyde) that Microsoft is working on a port of MS Office to Linux, Microsoft officials deny this. While Linux may never supplant Windows as the industry-standard desktop, there should be plenty of opportunity for Linux PCs in enterprise nets in the future.

Although clearly slanted, the following is rather astute local coverage of the issue. John 12/06/2000 The Hindu Copyright (C) 2000 Kasturi & Sons Ltd (KSL); Source: World Reporter (TM) - Asia Intelligence Wire MUMBAI, DEC. 5. Strange as it may sound, the Maharashtra State Electricity Board (MSEB) would be paying less for the energy it buys from the Enron-sponsored Dabhol Power Company if it buys more. If it buys only half of the present capacity, the state- owned power utility would pay, as it does now, around Rs. 95 crores per month towards unbought power. That is its entrapment signed and sealed with Enron. Under the contract between the MSEB and the Dabhol- based independent power producer, the pricing of its output has two components: capacity charges and the variable or fuel charge. If it buys power, it pays a combination of the two and if it does not, MSEB has to fork out the capacity charges which is almost a penalty for not picking up the energy. At present, MSEB is allowed to buy only 3,044 million units which is about half the Dabhol plant's capacity during its currently operating Phase I because the Electricity Regulatory Commission has stipulated that only cheaply sourced power should be on its shopping list and if it has to draw from Dabhol, then the ceiling is 3,044 million units. That means, when the MSEB pays for half the power that would be available, it is also paying some Rs. 95 crores towards the capacity charges and which is loaded on what has been bought. This arithmetic has pushed the price, in addition to the weakened rupee against the US dollar plus the $30 per barrel of oil in the international market, to hover at close to Rs. 7 per unit. Arguably, it would have been cheaper to buy the entire output from the present Phase I capacity of 740 mw but the problem is that MSEB does not have money to pay for that. Therefore it would like to evaluate its options, as advised by the Maharashtra Government, so that the right ways and means could be found to handle this issue. One is to appeal to the MERC to allow all the power to be bought as it is produced, since the IPP is all set to activate a part of its Phase II capacity which is pegged at 1,444 MW and then get energy at a lower average price. That means it can avoid paying the capacity charges it can ill-afford. Says an official : "it is throwing good money behind the bad." Let us look at the prices paid hitherto, when the US currency had a different parity with the rupee. When it was Rs. 43.02 to a dollar, the MSEB was billed at Rs. 3.37 per unit in May 1999. Then it was tossed upwards, to reach Rs. 6.81 now and next month, move to about Rs. 6.90 per unit. "If the rupee slides further, we pay more," an official explained. There is a nice little twist to the Enron story. If the Power Purchase Agreement, as re-negotiated by the Shiv Sena - BJP Government had not made the 1,444 mw Phase II mandatory as against only an option to either pick up or reject in the earlier PPA, this need a re-look at the Phase II or the entire project may not have arisen. Those in the know of the economics of the situation explain :"If it was an option, we could have taken a hard look at the experience with the Phase I and decided on our steps. But the millstone was tied around the MSEB neck in 1996 itself by the previous Government. There seems to be no escape route except to ask the IPP to lower its prices by managing its cost of funds." That is now being done. Some FIs like IDBI have offered to lower its interest rate provided the lowered burden is transferred to the MSEB in the tariff. This is yet to become a widespread offer from FIs but the MSEB may, with the Maharashtra Government's help, quietly lobby towards that objective. That would not mean a lot but in the payouts, a few paise per unit less. When the first block of Phase II is activated by June 2001, at present dollar-rupee parity, with the price of petroleum products being the same, the price of power from Dabhol is estimated at about Rs. 5.43 per unit but that too to a financially crippled power board is stiff. But it can do little because of the "take or pay" deal with Enron. If the petroleum prices remain steady and the rupee does not slide, and when the second block of Phase II is operational, the price of power could dip but "we are talking of a situation which we can guess at." This is on the basis that MSEB can buy all the power and not merely end up paying capacity charges for not buying energy. According to present estimates, outgo towards power bought and not bought, would be Rs. 511 crores per month June 2001 onward, Rs. 712 crores per month October 2001 onward when the current realisation for the MSEB is only Rs. 920 crores per month from all power sold from all sources it accesses, its own and others. That is unlikely to go up substantially, not in the near future. Copyright , 2000 Dow Jones & Company, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

Jeff, In general, I agree with you that absent market power price caps are bad policy. In this case, I believe we have crafted the settlement (and the decision reinforces those sections, in fact, the reduction of market concentration limits from 40% to 30% goes even further in this regard), so that market power will not be a problem. I have phoned Mike Day and suggested that he craft his comments to include the caveat about market power, and he indicated that would not be a problem. With that change I don't think we object to including the comments on price caps. I am still getting approval from the various powers that be, but hope to get that soon. Michael -- Michael S.

My only comment is that, in our view, the price cap (which would cover ALL capacity in the secondary market) is simply bad economic policy and won't address any problems--in fact it will only create problems. (From a practical perspective, I'm not even sure that the Commission can successfully "regulate" prices in the secondary market.) Will the commission change the price cap provisions of the decision based comments advising against them? Very unlikely. But when the caps create problems (and they will), I want to have been on record advising the Commission of why caps are bad economic policy and pointing out the bad outcomes that caps will cause. I think that it's very important to point out the downside of caps and to be on record against them. That said, I don't want the comments to be so negative as to cloud support for the decision; nor do I think the Commission will change the cap based on our comments. Other than that, EES and ENA can sign on. Anyone have any objections to pointing out the fact that price caps are ill-advised?

Brenda, I think all the correct actions are underway. Roy Lipsett will be in Chicago on Friday morning to oversee the movement of the product to another facility. I am not sure of the legal expertise within Enron on Illinois Bankruptcy Law. If required the following Law firm has expertise in this area, and did a good job of helping me in a similar situation in the past so that I continued to have access to products. Please let me know if I can be of assistance. Barack Ferrazzano Kirschbaum Perlman & Nagelberg Wendi E. Sloane 333 West Wacker Drive Suite 2700 Chicago, IL 60606 (312) 984-3166 Thank You, Dan Hamilton 713-516-4365 (cell) 713-345-7653 -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, January 24, 2001 9:55 PM To: [email protected]; [email protected] Cc: [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: Lumber Reload Facility - Premier Yesterday I was informed that there was a concern about the financial stability of one of the reload facilities we currently use in the Chicago area, Premier Reload Inc. I met with Romney Ruder, Lumber trader, Roy Lipsett, Logistics, and Mike Moscoso, Lumber business controller, this morning to gather information and develop a plan. This is summarized below. General Information: Premier is a facility we have been using for a few months, located in Franklin Park within Chicago. We deliver to the facility via railcar, and ship out via truck. We currently have about 3.8 million board feet, valued at about $1 million, in the facility. During the holidays, we began experiencing problems with our railcars not being unloaded timely. We have been pressing for information, and are hearing rumors that have raised significant concerns. Although Enron has not received written notification, we learned today that Premier notified customers that they would not be taking in any more products. Additionally, we have heard that the owner, Jeff Leske, is closing the facility, and will be going to work for another reload facility in Chicago, Reserve Marine Terminal (RMT). We have been in negotiations with RMT for a long term arrangement, and much of the information we have obtained is through our contact there. In fact, we have diverted recent shipments to RMT. There is a rumor that Premier and /or Leske may declare bankruptcy. There is a rumor that Premier has been incurring "switching" fees with the railroad (IHB) and has not been paying them. There is a rumor that Premier has not been paying employment taxes and there are problems with the IRS. All in all, there are many rumors but very few known facts. Plan: Met with Legal today to get advice. They recommended moving the product ASAP, but until moved, we needed to confirm the product was marked as "Enron" product, and that it is stored separately from other product. They are drafting a contract to specify the arrangement with Premier. It will be ready tomorrow. Met with Credit. They are not a included in the reload selection process, so the financial stability of the company has not been reviewed. A D&B was pulled today, and it confirms a lien filed by the IRS on 6/22/00 for $86,128. There is one suit pending by a trucking company in a nominal amount, filed 1/13/00. The company is owned 100% by Leske, and was started in 1995. Very little other information is available, and D&B did not assign a PAYDEX score. Mike Moscoso and Romney Ruder are going to the premises tomorrow to: gather financial information, intentions of the owner and the associated timeline, substantiate the inventory, and get the contract signed that Legal is drafting. On Friday morning, Roy Lipsett will join them to meet with RMT, discuss movement of the product and complete the negotiations. Depending on the information gathered tomorrow, we will determine next steps. If we start moving the product to RMT, the estimated timeline is about 13 to 14 days, moving 10 trucks per day (total truckloads = 135). Estimated cost for the movement is about is $25,000. Another $25,000 would be incurred for unload fees at RMT if we can't get them to wave them. About half of the product has already been sold, and will be delivered over the next 5 weeks. Romney is working with customers to determine if they can take the product earlier. I will keep you informed as to the next events. However, we need to take immediate steps to put a policy and process in place for warehousing facilities. I have initiated weekly cross-functional staff meetings (Tax, Legal, Credit, IT, Logistics, Fundemental Analysis, Accounting, etc.), and our first meeting is scheduled for tomorrow. I will have this on the agenda, and will lead the effort to develop the process. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks John. FYI the contract language (w/GE comments) is attached at the bottom of this E-mail. When you have a minute we can discuss. John Schwartzenburg 09/12/2000 10:43 AM To: Scott Dieball/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT, Kay Mann/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT cc: Sheila Tweed@ECT Subject: Re: GE Language (Document link: Scott Dieball) I think that I agree with the points and comments you folks raised in the first echange on indemnities below, but don't have the document to refer to. Scott, please drop by and brief me on these. Cognizant Gov't? Never heard of the term, and itis not one of the usual defined terms. Don't know how it's used here, suggest you decline andmake them clarify. LOL ISSUES: 1. I suppose that this is a NY law contract. I do not think you can effectively limit your liability for gross negligence or wilful misconduct in NY. Regardless of choice of law, we generally cannot get this limited or excluded in contracts with owners, either. I think you should not accept any GE attempt to limit this by means of the cap on liability or otherwise , and should avoid muddying the water on the point by taking any "to the fullest extent permitted by law" clause or other such stuff as a compromise. It will be important every time we wrap the GE equipment. 2. Generally, I do not think they should be able to limit their indemnity for Haz Mat, patents, etc. 3. They have consistently refused to clarify that the indemnity for all third party losses includes third party consequentials when Brian or whoever else over here has been the lead negotiator with GE in the past. I would like to think that we could get it clarified now that the larger Enron is working it. Please try it again if you can.

Agree. Seems that it would be a good idea to get a consensus on how to respond. Here are the issues I see: Indemnity issues: They should indemnify us from claims by their employees/subcontractors. Kay - Is your comment in connection with GE's comment to Section 27.1(iii) (carve out of the 100% LOL for "gross acts" of its subcontractors, vendors, ect.)? GE is in an aggressive outsource mode and needs to remain solely and totally responsible for the actions and liabilities for its subcontractors and vendors. I think Section 20.2(a) as written covers simple negligence of GE's subcontractors and vendors and I would argue that we need to keep Section 27.1(iii) as written dealing with gross negligence of GE's subcontractors and vendors. Indemnity should be triggered by strict liability as well as negligence. Agree - Maybe we could agree to GE's strike out in 20.2(a) provided the phrase "negligent or willfully wrongful" is replaced with "negligent, at fault or strictly liable without fault" (or some variation thereof). What is a cognizant government? Don't know! This was not discussed with MIke so I am not sure what is the meaning of adding this term. We need to also think in terms of how we could be harmed in a situation where GE fails to comply with law, and instead of Enron incurring a monetary penalty, is ordered to shut down the facility. Limit of liability issues: They want to limit their indemnity obligations for complying with laws, patent infringement, liability for haz. waste and liens to 100% of purchase price. They want the limit of liability to apply to gross negligence, if possible. Agree - See 1st comment above re indemnity. They don't want to clarify that they have to indemnify us for another party's claim for consequentials (as in a personal injury claim). Agree. We've don't have anything concrete on assignment yet. Agree. Comments? I suggest we get together before our next scheduled conf. call to discuss our game plan. Sheila has asked that we change Wednesday's call to 1100 Central, or 100 Central if 1100 doesn't work. Is this a problem? Works for me...just let me know when, where, ect.

The Italian team worked with the Continental Gas desk to arrange this strategically important agreement with Blugas SpA., the wholesale gas company formed by the municipalities of Cremona, Lodi, Mantova and Pavia in north-eastern Italy. Enron has sourced 100,000 cubic metres per day of natural gas from northern Europe to transport to Italy, transiting it through Germany and Switzerland, despite fierce resistance from Ruhrgas and TransitGas respectively. Aside from isolated LNG imports by incumbent monopolies this is the first time that any company has managed to import natural gas by pipeline into Italy since the Italian gas sector was officially liberalised in August 2000. The gas, which started flowing at 06.00 on Thursday 17th May 2001, will be used to meet the needs of two thirds of Blugas' residential customers within the four municipalities. The current contract lasts for five months. Congratulations to Fabio Greco, Carsten Haack, Didier Magne, Michael Schuh, Marco Lantieri and Daniela Uguccioni. Enron in the Middle East Enron has relinquished its stake in Dolphin Energy, the joint venture company formed to develop gas reserves in Qatar. Enron has agreed to transfer its 24.5 per cent stake in the project to the United Arab Emirates Offset Group (UOG), the majority shareholder. The agreement allows Enron to deploy capital elsewhere and gives UOG the opportunity to seek new partners before the project moves into its next phase. Development of the Emden/Oude gas hub moves ahead fast An important milestone in the evolution of the new gas trading hub on the Dutch-German border was reached last week. Last Friday some of the major European gas players held a meeting to officially establish the Emden/Oude gas hub. Although Enron had already initiated the development of the Emden/Oude hub by making a market through EnronOnline as early as December 2000, the goal of this meeting was to set up a working group similar to the Zeebrugge focus group who can work on setting a legal framework for the Emden/Oude hub. Enron was elected as the only new market entrant in this group, reflecting the high level of respect industry peers have for Enron as a major player in the Continental gas market -- even from incumbents!

Re: the coal strategy, you're exactly right. There is however one major impediment. While locating the plant near/at the source (i.e., mine-mouth) will ease transport costs for coal, there aren't many major coal mines located in the prime market zones for power. The transmission (wires) grid was not built to accomodate wholesale bulk trading/transport the way gas does and the impediments to expanding the grid are enormous (infinitely more so than building new plants). For example, the average lead time to permit (not built, just permit) a high-voltage power line is 5-7 years! As a result, a medium sized line (345kv, 200 miles) can cost upwards of $1-2 billion! That was the most frustrating part of the 18 months I chased this stuff. While the basic solutions appear to be so logical, the business (the utilities), regulatory and environmental regimes are so backwardated in their thinking that breaking in was basically impossible. Unless we're willing to put a billion $ at risk for 5-7 years on a merchant basis! (NOT!) Hell, you can't even get $100 million for your refinery deal! Solving the power supply shortage is only part of the equation and your coal idea is legitimate as new technology can burn coal almost as clean as gas. But until the FERC and state PUCs force the issue of expanding the grid to become a more "fungible" and integrated transmission system, the utilities will continue to operate in their vacuum as these transmission barriers are the only things protecting their turfs. Even though some have given the appearance of forming RTO's/ISO's (regional transmission organizations or independent system operators) this is simply a facade of utilities banding together to cover each other's asses. The assets are still owned by the utilities themselves and the RTO/ISO has no authority to mandate expansion or anything requiring capital investment, other than routine maintenance, etc... That's the whole genesis of what I was trying to preach to FERC, various utilities who "appeared" to be more forward thinking about dereg, etc... Basically, you'd be trading one evil (transport for fuel) for another (transport for electrons) and I'm afraid the latter is infinitely more complex (engineering wise) and costly. See ya' Friday!

Chicago Residents, Natural Gas Bills Could Rise 50 Percent Source: Knight Ridder/Tribune Business News Publication date: 2000-10-03 Oct. 3--Chicago residents are likely to see their natural gas heating bills jump as much as 50 percent this season, officials with Peoples Energy Corp. said Monday. Prices for natural gas are almost double what they were a year ago, pushed upward as the nation's booming economy makes demands on a tight supply. And many electric utilities are switching from coal-fired generation plants to natural gas generation plants, adding to pressure on the supply. Natural gas prices were about $1.85 per metric thousand cubic feet at the source last year. But through July of this year, the price was $3.49 per mcf--an 89 percent increase. Those prices may translate to sticker shock when Chicago-area consumers open their bills this winter. For October 1999 through March 2000, the average Peoples Energy residential customer who uses natural gas for home heating and cooking paid $735. This season, Peoples Energy is projecting that same customer will pay $1,083, said Luis Diaz-Perez, a Peoples spokesman. "We are going to continue to communicate with our customers on ways to manage this winter's bill, whether that be through tips on economizing at home or information about payment plans and financial assistance programs," Diaz-Perez said. In July, Nicor Inc. predicted that its customers, located primarily in the Chicago suburbs, could see their bill rise by as much as $200 over last year for the same six-month period. But Nicor expects to revise that prediction upward this week, said Lee Haines, a spokesman for Nicor. Haines noted that the October gas cost for Nicor customers is 63 cents per therm, up from 51.5 cents per therm for September. And the October cost per therm is 70 percent higher than last year's cost of 37 cents per therm, Haines said. Said Marty Cohen, executive vice president of the Citizens Utility Board in Chicago: "Most consumers are unaware of what they are in for this winter. They haven't taken note that gas prices are dramatically higher than they were a year ago." Cohen suggested that consumers study the gas companies' varied payment options to determine whether spreading payments out evenly over the year would make economic sense for their families. As expensive as it's likely to be to heat a Chicago-area home this winter, prices are higher in other areas, says Donato Eassey, first vice president for natural gas research at Merrill Lynch in Houston. Nationally, Eassey said, residential prices for natural gas have escalated 88 percent over last year. "If they are only increasing 48 percent in the Chicago area, they've done a good job of keeping costs down," Eassey said. Eassey also said that even if the predicted price increases occur, the cost of natural gas is still much lower than it has been in the past. Consumers enjoyed a significant decrease in gas prices between mid-1984 and 1999, with prices on average down 2 percent or 3 percent, though the consumer price index stayed steady, Eassey noted. "We've been spoiled by cheap energy," Eassey said. "It's still the best bargain in town." But Eassey noted that rising prices appear to be encouraging gas companies to push for exploration, which in the long run could increase supply and keep the lid on prices. When prices were low, Eassey said, "we just didn't have the drill bit turning to the right often enough. There was not enough incentive to invest in new prospects." Last year, the number of rigs drilling for natural gas was 597; now the number is up to 806, a 35 percent increase, he said. Severin Borenstein, the director of the University of California at Berkeley's Energy Institute, agreed that high energy prices are likely to encourage energy companies to look for new sources of supply. "The politics are such that the higher prices are going to add fuel to the debate over drilling for fossil fuels in North America," especially in normally sacrosanct areas such as Alaska, Borenstein said.
Russell, The below two documents are the credit worksheet and the contract relationship documents which you provided. The credit worksheet states that the guaranty should cover ENA, EPMI, ECC and Clinton Energy Management Services, Inc. and additionally should cover the master energy agreement with EPMI. Do we have a date of execution or effective date for such master energy agreement. The contract relationship document merely states that the guaranty should cover the new master firm purchase sale agreement that ENA is negotiating with Engage and an master energy agreement between EPMI and ____. No agreements of any type are specified for ECC or Clinton Energy Management Services, Inc. Also, are any of the Master Swap agreements that ENA has with Engage to be covered by the requested guaranty? I believe that we need to get together at your convenience and determine exactly which contracts Enron Corp. is to cover with the guaranty agreement being offered as a part of the security for the Master Firm Purchase Sale Agreement.

All - I'll be happy to do the legal due dliligence and ISDA documentation from here. Bill/Cynthia: Please let me know who in Credit will be handling this so that I can coordinate with them when the need arises. Sara: When Janice mentioned the legal due diligence with regard to commodity derivatives in the Philippines, did she mean the legal survey done by Allen & Overy? If so , I've got copies of all that and can take it from here. If that isn't the case and you've done more ISDA work in the Phillipines since then, I'd be forever grateful if you could send over whatever copies of the stuff which you have for me to suss out the situation there.

I'm not sure which credit dept. would handle this deal, but Cynthia Schnedier has some familiarity w/ Petron. I'll leave it to Mark, Alan and Anita to determine whether Anita will handle the ISDA or whether it will be someone from Houston (Sara S. did the original legal due diligence on the enforceability of commodities derivatives contracts in the PHilippines). ---------------------- Forwarded by Janice Moore/HOU/ECT on 13.07.99 10:15 --------------------------- Wang Moi Eng 12.07.99 22:31 To: "Manuel Gallego/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT" AT ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@CCMAIL @ ENRON cc: John Chismar/SIN/ECT, Hans Wong/SIN/ECT@ECT, Mike Brown@ENRON, Janice Moore/HOU/ECT@ECT, Angel M Esguerra/SIN/ECT@ECT, David A Terlip AT ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@CCMAIL@ENRON, Victor Santos AT ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@CCMAIL@ENRON, Bruce Lundstrom AT ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@CCMAIL@ENRON, Heather J Mitchell AT ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@CCMAIL@ENRON, Alberto J Carreno AT ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@CCMAIL@ENRON Subject: Re: Update on Petron Hedging Program Manuel, Thanks for the update and we look forward to meet Petron traders/risk management team during our next visit to Manila, probably during our first cargo of gasoil to FGH, currently planned for end August / early September.

I sensed that the course was not deemed easy by the Petron participants. Further, Yayette indicated that they could have easily used up more time for the same amount of material. Given the Paradigm course (and the Citibank course which Yayette attended in Australia), Yayette indicated that the Petron Board will most likely give the marching orders to Petron management on July 27 to (1) develop an initial, basic and conservative hedging program for Petron?s fuel oil and gasoil supplied to the National Power Corporation and (2) go out to the market (most likely through a bid process) and execute a financial risk management contract (ISDA). Yayette indicated that Petron looks forward to the working meeting with Enron?s Singapore traders. I indicated to Yayette that end of August to early September would probably be convenient for us. Yayette could not yet determine an appropriate time for Petron. With respect to legal expectations, Petron appears to be at ease with the following: ? In general, the concept of disassociating the financial risk management contract from the Philippines with the exception of Petron Corporation (a Philippine corporation) being a party to the contract. ? Petron executing a financial risk management contract with an offshore counter-party like Citibank Australia or ECT Singapore. ? Petron physically executing the contract outside the Philippines. ? The contract to be governed by the laws of the State of New York. I did point out to Yayette the need for offshore collateral in the form of a Letter of Credit, which is consistent with the risk of non-enforcement for collateral in the Philippines. Yayette indicated that she would raise this issue in her discussions with Petron treasury. More later as I receive more feedback from Petron. Best regards, Manuel
Dot is right with regard to the termination provision. It was a Natural case. But it was more than a year or two ago. (Time flys when you are having fun.) It was the contracting practices order issued October 16, 1996. 77 FERC 61,028. The order on rehearing was issued March 26, 1998. 82 FERC 61,298. In both orders the Commission said that the unilateral right to terminate is like a "semi-firm" rate and a separate rate schedule is required. Specifically, the Commission said: Under Natural's currently effective tariff provisions governing firm service, it may offer day-to-day, week-to-week, or month-to-month rollovers if it so chooses: but the length of the term must be selected by the shippers. Natural may not control the length of the firm service by inserting a unilateral right to cancel in its service agreements. As we indicated in the October 16 order, Natural could achieve the 'maximization of firm capacity' and administrative convenience of its term provision with a 'semi-firm' rate schedule on file in its tariff. However, Natural cannot provide such a service without a rate schedule for that service on file. [Footnotes omitted.] 82 FERC at 62,178. Not sure about the rest of the wording of the proposed provision. The attached language did not come across to me as a part of Dot's e-mail.

(As I recall, instead of simply saying that the discount would no longer be valid if the capacity were to be released, Natural had the right to terminate the contract. I do not recall that the FERC had a problem with any termination right by a pipeline, for any reason. However, termination is a serious remedy -- so reverting to the max rates [or having the rate re-negotiated by the parties] would probably be seen much more favorably by FERC as an appropriate remedy.) -----Original Message----- From: Pavlou, Maria Sent: Tuesday, March 27, 2001 9:32 AM To: Fossum, Drew; Miller, Mary Kay Cc: Scott, Susan; Harris, Steven; Hyatt, Kevin; McCoppin, Dorothy; Corman, Shelley Subject: RE: Red Rock form contract I thought a pipeline having unilateral termination rights was a problem under Natural.

One of the changes is for clarity and one is to make the contract terminable at our option instead of automatically terminated if the neg. rate is invalidated and our max rate is lower than the Rate [we may want to preserve the contract in that scenario if the market value is even lower than the max. rate!!] On MKM's point, I think the only contract we have sent out is to CalPine, right??? I think we explain it to them as a mechanism that is designed to preserve our benefit of the bargain if FERC changes the rules in the middle of the game. If they choke on it, we probably have to take the risk with them since they are are our baseload tenant. As to other shippers that we haven't sent the contract to, we ought to push very hard to get language like this. I'm sending to Shelley and Dot to get their insight. Dot--have you guys done anything analogous in your precedent agreements on the many Florida projects? Not necessarily on neg. rates, but FERC-outs in general?

In case this becomes big news in the United States, attached is a summary from the Argentina team of the political situation in Argentina. It is not a political meltdown but it is a significant change in the executive branch and potential realignment of the political parties in Argentina. The cabinet shuffle and resignation of the vice president are in the wake of the senate bribery scandal in Argentina where the opposition was supposedly bribed to vote for the governments changes in law (actually in favor of economic reform). The cabinet shuffle was economics oriented with the economic team being strengthened, but potentially at the expense of the alliance that holds the government and a majority in Congress over Menem's party, the peronists. The vice president was the senior member of the second party in the alliance (President De La Rua is senior member of the first party in the alliance). Financial markets reacted slightly negatively to the shakeup with bond spreads widening slightly and Argentine stock prices down slightly. As a minimum we will keep a close eye on the political and financial situation and be prepared for any more significant reaction by the financial markets. ---------------------- Forwarded by James M Bannantine/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT on 10/08/2000 07:04 PM --------------------------- Don Black@ENRON 10/07/2000 08:16 AM To: James M Bannantine/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT cc: Joe Kishkill/SA/Enron@Enron, Diomedes Christodoulou/SA/Enron@Enron, Peter E Weidler/NA/Enron@Enron, Michael Guerriero/SA/Enron@Enron Subject: Argentina Political Analysis Mike, Thanks for the quick turnaround on this from you and your team.

The main reason of this resignation was a political disagreement with Cabinet changes announced on Thursday 5th by President De la Rua. Alvarez publicly noted he could no longer tolerate the political differences with the President over the senate bribery scandal. Particularly Alvarez disagreed with De la Rua's decision to promote Alberto Flamarique from Minister of Labor to General Secretary and to keep Fernando de Santibaez as Chief of the Intelligence Department. Both Flamarique and Santibaez are suspected of paying bribes to Senators to vote for a new Labor Law. Alvarez has emotionally championed the fight against the senate scandal and has been strongly advocating for the resignation of Flamarique, Santibaez and all Senators involved in the affair. It was considered that the decision of De la R?a was intended to demonstrate that he, and not Alvarez, holds the power and that De la R?a wanted to demonstrate that the changes were focused on improving the economic situation and to move beyond the Senate scandal. The main changes in the cabinet, announced on Thursday 5th, are the following: Chistian Colombo (economist, in good relationship with Machinea) will replace Terragno as Chief of Cabinet. Machinea (Minister of Economy) will also be responsible of the Ministry of Infrastructure. Jorge De la R?a (former General Secretary of the President and President's brother) will be Minister of Justice. Patricia Bullrich (peronist) will be Minister of Labor. As a consequence of Alvarez' resignation, Flamarique resigned to his position of General Secretary of the President. Regarding the preliminary impact of the political changes to the economic situation it could be considered the following: Before Alvarez resignation, the cabinet changes were considered positive intending to increase the power of the Minister of Economy and reduce the internal disagreements in the Administration. Although Alvarez (the leader of the Frepaso party) said he will be still part of the "Alianza" (the Radical and Frepaso party alliance) in Office, Alvarez' resignation could lead to the division of the Alianza and reduce the ability of De la Rua to pass new laws in the Congress. A breakup of the coalition would make the Peronist the largest party in both houses of Congress only compounding the potential for government gridlock This situation will weaken De la Rua and probably foster new re-alignments in the political field. All the situation will increase economic uncertainty and will delay economic recovery. The market will wait to see if a conflict develops in the Alianza. De la Rua and his team will probably be forced to take "strong" decisions to retain the political initiative, strength and control. Machinea will probably try to gain the market confidence, announcing that De la Rua's Administration will not change the macro foundations of the economic agenda and even increase its commitment toward monetary and fiscal equilibrium, exchange rate policy, respect for vested rights, etc. Financial analysts have viewed the situation as "an institutional crisis with unknown effects on the economy". The insecurity of the Argentina's political future caused Argentine debt paper to fall. The Argentine JP Morgan Emerging Market Bond Index widened 23 basis points to 685 over US Treasuries. Argentina's 17 year global bond fell only slightly. There does not appear to be a market panic as noted by the trading of Argentine ADR's in New York. They were down cents rather than dollars and a number of them closing unchanged. We will continue to monitor the situation and update as warranted.
---------------------- Forwarded by Vince J Kaminski/HOU/ECT on 03/27/2000 08:48 AM --------------------------- Robert Brooks <[email protected]> on 03/22/2000 12:45:20 PM Please respond to "[email protected]" <[email protected]> To: "'GPCM Distribution'" <[email protected]> cc: (bcc: Vince J Kaminski/HOU/ECT) Subject: GRI and Gas Storage Gri Study Documents Changing Role of Natural Gas Storage ( March 21, 2000 ) (reported in http://powermarketers.com 3/22/2000) (forwarded to you by Bob Brooks, RBA Consultants) ARLINGTON, Va., March 21 /PRNewswire/ -- Regulatory changes coupled with steady growth in U.S. natural gas consumption are expected to trigger a 21 percent increase in gas storage capacity over the next 15 years, according to a new GRI study. The study -- Natural Gas Storage Overview in a Changing Market Environment (GRI-99/0200) -- estimates that lower 48 storage capacity for working gas will grow from 3.8 trillion cubic feet (Tcf) in 1998 to 4.6 Tcf in 2015. About 75 percent of the capacity additions are expected to occur after 2005, as gas demand grows more rapidly than storage capacity requirements during the next five years. Part of the new capacity will provide storage operators with increased operating flexibility and augment changing needs of the power generation and industrial sectors. These two sectors are expected to account for nearly 80 percent of growth in gas consumption between 1998 and 2015. (GRI projects the nation's gas demand will increase 50 percent, from 21.3 Tcf in 1998 to 32.8 Tcf in 2015.) The added storage capacity will require a gas industry investment of nearly $5.0 billion (1998 dollars) between 1998 and 2015, or about $270 million per year, the study estimates. The study, conducted for GRI by Energy and Environmental Analysis Inc., Arlington, Va., identifies several trends that will drive future storage requirements, including: * High consumption by power generation and industrial markets dampens seasonal volatility. Since these sectors have relatively flat year-round load profiles, they act to compliment rather than stimulate short term demand swings in traditional residential and commercial applications which drive the need for increased storage capacity to overcome seasonal differences. * Increases in the value of market-area storage to accommodate significant growth in gas usage for power generation are anticipated. Due to improvements in technology, favorable economics, and low emissions, natural gas is expected to be the preferred incremental fuel for power generation for the foreseeable future. * Pipeline restructuring is changing the role and value of storage. Most notable are the development of secondary markets for storage and pipeline capacity, growth of market hubs and gas marketers, and a shift toward market-based rates. * Storage services are likely to become more efficient as a result of local distribution company restructuring. Storage operators are expected to have a direct profit motive to maximize the value of storage and are likely to offer new services that use existing facilities more effectively. "These trends are already beginning to have a major impact on gas storage operations and will only be magnified in the future," said John Cochener, GRI project manager and principal analyst-resource evaluation. "We are already seeing increases in the value of well-placed storage facilities, particularly those able to capitalize on regulatory changes that allow for greater operating flexibility. The reduction in regulatory constraints will allow storage market players even greater latitude in the future to experiment with innovative competitive tools. This will result in greater flexibility in the timely movements of gas to where it's required. Conversely, high-cost storage operators, who fail to respond to the changing market by offering more flexibility, may eventually find themselves at a competitive disadvantage in the future and may see the value of their storage asset stagnate." The study is GRI's most comprehensive look at gas storage markets. Included is an analysis of changes in storage capacity, services, customer usage patterns and costs, as well as proposed storage projects. LNG and Propane-Air are covered in addition to traditional types of storage facilities. The study also reviews future storage requirements, costs associated with expanding different types of storage capacity, and the merits of different storage locations. The study also looks at storage capacity under existing contracts. One finding is that the average length of time until contract expiration for firm storage contracts has declined from 6.8 years in 1996 to 6.2 years in 1999. More than half of the existing contracts in spring 1999 will expire by 2004. By 2006, 70 percent of existing contracts will have expired. Further, storage operators will generally be replacing storage contracts negotiated by local distribution companies (with guaranteed rates of return) with contracts negotiated by the growing ranks of gas marketers, who are under competitive pressure to hold down costs. The number of years remaining under existing storage contracts varies by customer type, according to the study. Currently, cogenerators and independent power producers have the longest remaining contract lengths, followed by pipelines, gas utilities and marketers. Electric utilities and industrial customers have the shortest average contract lengths remaining. Listed in the study are the top 50 storage capacity holders.

O. Box 26530, Austin, Texas 78755 - Phone 512-795-8536 Brown Gets Big Raise; Assistant FB Coaches Also Will Benefit Texas ootball coach Mack Brown has been given a $450,000 raise to boost his annual salary to $1,450,000 and maintain his status among the top 10 highest-paid college football coaches in the country, Longhorn Athletic Director DeLoss Dodds announced Tuesday. Brown's raise is an increase from the 10-year, $1 million per year contract that he signed following the 1998 season. He will have eight years remaining on the $1.45 million per year contract. "Mack has done a terrific job for The University of Texas, our Athletics Department and the football program," Dodds said. "We are extremely proud of everything he, his staff and the student-athletes have accomplished and are excited about our future." "It is very important that the head football coach at Texas remains in the upper echelon of coaching compensation, which is an ever-changing dynamic," Dodds said. "This raise is in response to the current demand in the coaching marketplace and a well-deserved reward for Mack's hard work and dedication. We are thrilled with the direction he has taken our football program and look forward to a long-lasting relationship." Brown has led the Horns to three straight nine-win seasons for the first time since 1981-83 and is guiding UT to a third-straight bowl game for just the second time since 1985. The No. 12 Longhorns will face the No. 8 Oregon Ducks at the Culligan Holiday Bowl in San Diego on Dec. 29. Brown's Texas program is one of only seven schools nationally that is riding a string of three straight nine-win campaigns. Including a pair of 10-win seasons at North Carolina prior to his arrival at Texas, Brown joins Bobby Bowden (Florida State), Steve Spurrier (Florida) and Bill Snyder (Kansas State) as the only NCAA Division I-A coaches who have led their teams to five-straight nine-plus win seasons. "I appreciate the continued commitment to our football program from The University of Texas," Brown said. "I'm proud to be the head coach of the Longhorns." Brown's assistant coaches also are in line for raises. Football raises about $40 million of the entire $50 million budget for all the men's and women's athletic programs. It is the only program that shows a profit. Baseball and men's and women's basketball are the only other major revenue sports, and none of them produce as much revenue as they spend. * * * * FOOTBALL NOTES: Longhorn ticket sales are lagging for the Holiday Bowl are lagging and Oregon fans are snapping up some of the 11,500 tickets that were allotted to Texas fans. If Longhorn fans don't step up quickly, Oregon fans are going to occupy the vast majority of the seats in San Diego on Dec. 29. . . The Longhorns begin practicing for the bowl game Thursday. All the practices will be closed to the public. . . Former Longhorn and pro football great Harley Sewell was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame this week. . . . Redshirt freshman WR Artie Ellis, who missed most of this season with a sore shin, will get a look at TE in spring practice. With the emergence of freshman receivers Roy Williams, B. J. Johnson and Sloan Thomas, the 215-pound Ellis might have a better chance of seeing meaningful playing time by beefing up a little and playing tight end. . . Another spring move that is being contemplated is seeing if sophomore LG Derrick Dockery could move over to LT to replace departing senior Leonard Davis. Texas has three good guards in Dockery, Antwan Kirk-Hughes and Tillman Holloway. Mike Williams is the only returning tackle who has seen a lot of action. In addition to getting the best five linemen on the field at the same time, that move might give the offensive line more fire because Holloway is a very aggressive lineman. The offensive line has frequently been cited as lacking fire and leadership. * * * * FOOTBALL RECRUITING NOTES: The Longhorns are having their annual football banq uet this weekend. Most of the players making official visits will be players who already are committed to Texas, but there are at least two exceptions. OL William Winston of Houston Madison and S Rufus Harris of La Porte are both scheduled to visit. Super LB Derrick Johnson of Waco now says he is going to take all of his visits in January. Texas leads for Winston and Johnson and it it a UT-A&M battle for Harris. * * * * My next fax will be whenever events warrant. * * * * The True Orange Fax Service includes at least 99 faxes a year and costs $99 ($79 by E-Mail).

Wade, I have decided that everything currently in our system is incorrect. Please set up a meeting with all the people shown above and we will discuss how to correctly handle this in our system. We also have some other supply behind the LDC that we might as well handle correctly. Wade, while we are at it, do you want us to look at NYSEG, CPA, and East Ohio??? Any others? People I need in attendance Mary Theresa or Jeanne Steve Gillespie Angie Sylvia Campos (or someone from the contracts group) This is what I'm thinking, everyone please think about this before we meet. I think I will have Peoples set up as a pipeline and we will move all the deals to this new pipeline. Steve, get the Peoples password from Angie. I need you to go into escript (Angie can help you with this) and run anything you can get out of this system. These are actually CES passwords. It is my intention to use this information to set up transport or pooling contracts in Sitara.

But I need help understanding this one. We have a process already to handle John's behind the citygate deals Since, the actual scheduling is done by CES in Virginia, we never nominate this gas nor do we see actuals. We hear about them from John and Terry and we are supposed to get confirms from the producer and CES. Whenever one of these deals occurs, we have buys from the producer and sales to CES to account for these transactions internally. It's my understanding that whenever John cuts one of these behind the citygate deals; that Terry puts it into Sitara for him. The offset also entered by Terry is a sale to CES (Now the New Power Company effective Sept. 1) with commercial (usually Chris Germany) confirming the sale price. Angie schedules it in Unify under CNG and we create, track and balance like usual. Is that not the case here? Is this something that's getting reconciled in Jeanne and Terry's project for CNG???

---------------------- Forwarded by Andrea Ring/HOU/ECT on 01/16/2001 12:49 PM --------------------------- Michele Winckowski @ ENRON 01/16/2001 09:47 AM To: Andrea Ring/HOU/ECT@ECT cc: Subject: Fwd: FW: Advice on Self-Defense I THINK THIS IS THE SAME GUY WE HAD IN OMAHA - HE WAS VERY ENTERTAINING WITH SOLID INFORMATION. Hi, ladies, I just finished taking the most amazing self-defense class, sponsored by Shandwick, and I wanted to share some really valuable info with you before it goes out of my head. The guy who taught the class has a female friend who was attacked last year in the parking garage at Westport Plaza in St. Louis one night after work and taken to an abandoned house and raped. He started a women's group and began teaching these classes soon after. This guy is a black belt in karate and trains twice a year with Steven Segall. He and the others in this group interviewed a bunch of rapists and date rapists in prison on what they look for and here's some interesting facts: The #1 thing men look for in a potential victim is hairstyle. They are most likely to go after a woman with a ponytail, bun, braid or other hairstyle that can easily be grabbed. They are also likely to go after a woman with long hair. Women with short hair are not common targets. The second thing men look for is clothing. They will look for women who's clothing is easy to remove quickly. The #1 outfit they look for is overalls because many of them carry scissors around to cut clothing and on overalls the straps can be easily cut. They also look for women on their cell phone, searching through their purse or doing other activities while walking because they are off guard and can be easily overpowered. The time of day men are most likely to attack and rape a woman is in the early morning, between 5 and 8:30 a.m. The number one place women are abducted from/attacked at is grocery store parking lots. Number two is office parking lots/garages. Number three is public rest rooms. The thing about these men is that they are looking to grab a woman and quickly move her to a second location where they don't have to worry about getting caught. Only 2% said they carried weapons because rape carries a 3-5 year sentence but rape with a weapon is 15-20 years. If you put up any kind of a fight at all, they get discouraged because it only takes a minute or two for them to realize that going after you isn't worth it because it will be time-consuming. These men said they will not pick on women who have umbrellas, or other similar objects that can be used from a distance, in their hands. Keys are not a deterrent because you have to get really close to the attacker to use them as a weapon. So, the idea is to convince these guys you're not worth it. Several defense mechanisms he taught us are: * If someone is following behind you on a street or in a garage or with you in an elevator or stairwell, look them in the face and ask them a question, like what time is it, or make general small talk, I can't believe it is so cold out here, we're in for a bad winter. Now you've seen their face and could identify them in a lineup, you lose appeal as a target. * If someone is coming toward you, hold out your hands in front of you and yell Stop or Stay back! Most of the rapists this man talked to said they'd leave a woman alone if she yelled or showed that she would not be afraid to fight back. Again, they are looking for an EASY target. If you carry pepper spray (this instructor was a huge advocate of it and carries it with him wherever he goes), yelling I HAVE PEPPER SPRAY and holding it out will be a deterrent. * If someone grabs you, you can't beat them with strength but you can by outsmarting them. If they grab your wrist, pull your wrist back so your hand is in waving position (palm facing forward) and twist it toward yourself and pull your arm away. It is hard to hold onto wrist bones that are moving in that way. They stumble toward you and you stumble back, so you can use that momentum to bring the same out and backhand them with your knuckles in the forehead, nose or teeth. * If you are grabbed around the waist from behind, pinch the attacker either under the arm between the elbow and armpit or in the upper inner thigh. HARD. One woman in a class this guy taught told him she used the underarm pinch on a guy who was trying to date rape her and was so upset she broke through the skin and tore out muscle strands - the guy needed stitches. Try pinching yourself in those places as hard as you can stand it. It hurts. * After the initial hit, always go for the groin. I know from a particularly unfortunate experience that if you slap a guy's balls (sorry to be graphic) it is extremely painful. You might think that you'll piss the guy off and make him want to hurt you more, but the thing these rapists told our instructor is that they want a woman who will not cause a lot of trouble. Start causing trouble and he's out of there. * When the guy puts his hands up to you, grab his first two fingers and bend them back as far as possible with as much pressure pushing down on them as possible. The instructor did it to me without using much pressure and I ended up on my knees and both knuckles cracked audibly. Of course the things we always hear still apply. Always be aware of your surroundings, take someone with you if you can and if you see any odd behavior, don't dismiss it, go with your instincts.

Mark/Greg, Please find attached a post-mortem of our weekend problems... Summary is last paragraph in red. Regards -----Original Message----- From: Terech, Henry Sent: Sunday, June 10, 2001 11:23 PM To: Bibi, Philippe A.; Donovan, Bill Cc: Kean, Steven Subject: Enron Center North/Enron Center South Damage & Restoration Overview Bill/Philippe- Below is a summary of the major problems which occurred the past 96 hours and the steps taken to mitigate the damage and risk. Enron Center North (1400 Smith) As a result of the flooding downtown, approximately six skyscrapers had their electrical vaults flooded and began to cause cascading problemd in the electrical grid downtown. The net result was the loss of one of the two 35kv circuits which serve 1400 Smith. We (engineers, EES Maint, electrical subs) believe at the time the circuits blew we shifted from three phase to single phase power, which caused an imbalance in the load to the building. Consequently, UPS "C" which serves a portion of the Lv 34 Data Ctr, the Rolm phone switch, and a protion of the Traders floors lost a circuitboard, and blew two internal fuses. This power degradation caused PDU "S" on Lv 34 to trip its main breaker and shutdown power load to servers and equipment on this PDU. This occurred shortly after Noon on Saturday. Response/Restoration > UPS "D" transferred load from UPS "C" as the N+1 back up and carried the full load of the UPS loss as designed > EPSC/electrical sub (Henderson Electric); EES Maint; IT worked together to power down systems to begin repair work by 4:00pm Saturday > EPSC/EES Maint coordinated with Pillar/Henderson Elec to obtain replacement parts and begin the repairs. By 9:30pm all repairs to UPS"C" had been made and the system bought back on line. As a measure of extra protection the back up genset for Enron Ctr North was in operation > Reliant Energy restored the circuit at approximately 10:30pm Saturday evening > EPSC/EES Maint and subs conducted a thorough review of all electrical and back up systems Saturday evening > Enron Network IT Operations began restoration of all affected systems Saturday evening > EPSC/EES Maint obtained diesel fuel and topped off all gensets Saturday in case of additional problems and due to fuel consumption during the outage Other Building damage was limited to flooding in the tunnels, and water damage/flooding to portions of the Body Shop on Lv B-1 Enron Center South (1500 Louisiana) Impact/Damage Summary > Levels 8 & 9 received very limited amounts of water from the core area elevator shafts and exterior curtainwall. There was no exposure to water on any systems or network cabling during the entire period. (Response) Crews contained and cleaned all water as it traced into the building. > ALL IDF closets on Lvs 3-5 Traders Floors remained dry throughout the duration of the rains/flooding on Friday & Saturday > Lv 6 received some water from Lv 7. (Response) The area was contained and cleaned. No additional damage beyond Tuesday evenings flooding occurred > Due to extreme street flooding and water pressure, a 10" sanitary sewer line tied into ECS burst on Friday evening causing extensive flooding of Lv B-1 area (approximately 4-6 inches of water in the basement. (Response) Clark & Way Engr was able to install a temporary plug in the line to stop the on going flood waters from penetrating the basement. Clean up has continued throughout the weekend > Due to the extreme flooding and water pressure, the water seal of the Reliant Vault burst early Saturday and flooded the electrical vault room with 24-30" of water. This resulted in a complete loss of power at approximately 1:30pm on Staurday afternoon. The back up systems engaged and operated per design to support the Data Ctr and Traders Floors. The temporary cooling tower went off line. Prior to the flooding Clark had been in the process of tieing in the temporary feed into the back up system by 7-1-01 in prep for the migration (Response) * Clark used back up water pumps to pump out and clean the Reliant electrical vault, as well as maintained operation of the back up systems * The Data Ctr AHU's were kept on line with the dehumidifiers/blowers to modulate the airflow in the Data Ctr. EPSC had Way Engr techs use temp/humidity probes to monitor the areas. The recordings indicated temps on Lvs 8 & 9 did not exceed 78 degrees and relative humidity did not exceed 68% during the outage * Clark/Fisk Elec/EPSC coordinated desing efforts and obtained gear on an emergency basis and completed the tie in off the temporary coolong tower to the generators by 10:30pm * Reliant Energy is still cleaning and replacing gear in th vault room. Presntly (AT 11:00PM Sunday) we have one circuit operational in the building and 50% of the Reliant gear on line). We are still operating all systems safely on the back up sytems for the past 36 hours. It is expected Relaint will be complete by 7:00am. Clark; the engineers and MEP subs shall be conducting a thorough system review and repirs as required of all systems throughout the building during the coming week. In summary, the back up systems in both facilities did engage and operate as designed; however, due to the extreme conditons and stress placed upon the systems the facility held up extremely well. I would also like to note throughout the ordeal beginning Friday evening through Sunday, everyone (Enron NetWorks;EES FacilitiesClark Const;Way Engring;Fisk Electric;Henderson Electric; KW-Pillar;Hines) did an outstanding job under enourmous pressure and the most severe conditions I have seen in downtown Houston. Communication, around the clock work and cool heads managed to assess damage and develop action/restoration plans to facilitate repairs for Monday business Let me know if you need further details on specific issues or items. regards- Henry
Energy supply setback: Big generator can't be forced to sell emergency power to the state, a U.S. court rules. By Denny Walsh and Carrie Peyton BEE STAFF WRITERS (Published April 6, 2001) In a development that does not bode well for California's energy supply, a federal appellate court Thursday halted enforcement of a lower court order that a big electricity generator must sell emergency power to the state without guarantee of payment. State energy officials said the ruling wouldn't have any immediate effect but could precipitate a power emergency if the generator decided to take a plant off-line for maintenance. On March 21, citing "rolling blackouts (that have) darkened the California landscape," U.S. District Judge Frank C. Damrell Jr. imposed an injunction against Reliant Energy Services Inc., one of the nation's major generators. Houston-based Reliant controls approximately 3,800 megawatts, or about 20 percent, of the gas-fired generation capacity in the state, and Damrell found that loss of that production "poses an imminent threat." But Thursday, a three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals granted an emergency stay of the injunction, saying Reliant has shown "a high likelihood of success on the merits" of its appeal. While not spelling it out, the panel apparently bases its finding on the question of the courts' jurisdiction over the energy market. The panel directed that a hearing on the appeal be scheduled for the second week in July. The decision leaves California's electric grid more fragile, at least temporarily, according to the state Independent System Operator, which maintains and controls power transmissions. It gives the agency no immediate recourse if Reliant chooses to shut down any of its plants for maintenance, said ISO Vice President Jim Detmers. "It's not going to change anything overnight, and it's not going to change anything over the weekend," said Detmers. "But if Reliant decided on a unilateral action to take their units off for maintenance ... we definitely could have a system emergency." Reliant officials, when told of the ruling, took a conciliatory tone but declined to specify their next move. "Reliant ... has pledged to keep the lights on in California," said company lobbyist Marty Wilson, and "is still of a mind to want to cooperate." Without further comment, the appeals court judges cited a 1980 U.S. District Court decision. In that case, 14 cities sued Florida Power and Light Co., alleging that it was violating a number of laws in its sales of power and production of electricity. The judge found, however, that the Federal Power Act reserves oversight of interstate utilities exclusively to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. He ruled that only the commission may bring an action involving energy sales into federal court -- unless it is a request to review a commission order, and that goes directly to an appellate court. The lawsuit before Damrell was brought by the ISO to force Reliant and two other generators to respond to ISO's emergency orders for power, even though the agency is buying on behalf of two retailers that are broke and hopelessly in debt. Because Pacific Gas and Electric Co. and Southern California Edison can't pay their bills -- about $14 billion -- some wholesalers want to cut off sales to the utilities. The other three defendants in the ISO's suit -- Dynegy Power Corp. of Houston and Tulsa-based AES Corp. and its marketer, Williams Energy Marketing & Trading Co. -- have entered into written agreements with ISO to continue supplying emergency power until the FERC decides whether they are required to sell to companies that are not creditworthy. But Charles Robinson, ISO general counsel, points out that the generators can rescind those agreements with 48 hours' notice. "My hope is this is a temporary setback," said Robinson. He added, however, that the practical effect is "at least for now, we don't have a tool to compel them to do what we believe they're obligated to do" -- respond to emergency demands for power. Reliant has insisted since the suit was filed Feb. 6 that Damrell has no jurisdiction over the rate schedules that govern dealings between generators and the ISO, and that the Federal Power Act mandates that the FERC must settle any disputes about terms of those tariffs. In issuing the injunction, Damrell acknowledged that the FERC has special expertise concerning agreements between generators and ISO. "Absent the extreme exigencies of the California power crisis, the court agrees that a stay pending further action by the FERC would be proper," he said. "But those are not the facts here. Electricity is in critically short supply. The health and safety of the people of California are potentially at risk." Immediately upon receiving the 9th Circuit's order Thursday, attorneys for the ISO asked Damrell to set an accelerated schedule for its motion to amend the suit. The agency apparently has crafted a new complaint stressing its view that the matter is an ordinary contract dispute over which the judge has jurisdiction. Damrell scheduled a hearing on the motion for Thursday. In a further development that could complicate the state's dire need for energy, an alternative supplier won a court fight Thursday to bypass the big utilities and sell its power on the open market. Timber giant Sierra Pacific Industries, which operates four biomass plants that produce power for PG&E, obtained a temporary restraining order in Sacramento Superior Court that says Sierra Pacific is not required to sell its power to PG&E. The ruling means PG&E and Southern Edison could lose power as alternative energy generators, fed up with months of nonpayment, sue to be able to sell their comparatively cheap product elsewhere, including outside the state.
The available transmision capacity (ATC) "derate" did occur and has occured everydaysince about the 24th. This fact was verified to me by our ISO customer contact on Friday. Although we do not have the E-mails anymore, the ISO sends our traders E-mails everyday about the ATC on the ties, so this information is verifiable with the ISO. Our customer contact didn't know exactly what day it had started and I have not wanted to pursue this more with the ISO, not knowing whether we wanted our identity divulged. The reason for the zero rating is that the ISO is in a Stage 3 emergency. The line was again rated at zero today. I have been pursuing the following approaches to getting this issue investigated and resolved. I've talked to Scott Miller at FERC and to Eric Thode in Houston. Eric believes he can get the press to investigate and divulge this information for us in the trade press. So check the trade press tomorrow. Paul Kaufman 01/30/2001 02:41 PM To: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], Mary Hain/HOU/ECT@ECT cc: Subject: RE: Questions you requested I agree with Craig ... we need to be really, really careful about the earth orbit issues identified below. We shouldn't talk about the derating issue unless we can: (1) confirm the derating occurred and document it; (2) tie the derating directly to action by the new board (i.e., determine that it wasn't due to maintenance or some other physical occurence); (3) show a direct impact on PNW prices that can't be easily explained in another way; and (4) show a continuing pattern (in contrast to an isolated event). ---------------------- Forwarded by Paul Kaufman/PDX/ECT on 01/30/2001 02:40 PM --------------------------- Enron Capital & Trade Resources Corp.

If you want to really kick the ISO and Davis in the shins, use Mary's stuff about the ISO derating the transmission line at COB. Assuming it's true that the ISO has effectively shut down the northbound transmission route at the Oregon border in order to hoard power, and that this raised the market price in the NW by about $50-75 per megawatt-hour, and that this is costing the NW $2-5 million per day (at least for the period that Mary looked at), that will send the NW Senators into low earth orbit. If we can establish that this derating ruse was a change adopted by Davis's handpicked ISO board, the NW Senators will escape Earth's gravitational pull. For that very reason, we have to be able to back up anything we say, and we need to anticipate any defenses the ISO may have. But if you want NW elected officials to quit being so polite toward Davis, that will do it.

If you need additional materials, just let me know. (See attached file: Ron Wyden Qs for Steve Kean.doc) In addition, EPSA sent some questions they would like the Senator to ask of any of the EPSA witnesses (Reliant, Calpine, Williams, or Enron) dealing with the Impact of the Recent changes in the Management of the California Independent System Operator: Background: The Cal ISO acts as the "air traffic controller" for the interstate electric power grid in California. The ISO determines who gets access to the grid and under what terms and conditions. It is the ISO that helps ensure that access to the grid is truly open and non-discriminatory. When the ISO was initially constituted several years ago, a "stakeholder" management board was created that represented a wide range of market interests---power sellers, generators, consumers, political leaders, etc. After the power emergencies began last summer, this board was criticized as too splintered and indecisive. In a response to this perception and in an effort to impose greater control over the ISO, the California state legislature replaced the stakeholder board with a five-person board that serves at the request of the California Governor. QUESTION: The Cal ISO has recently seen its management board changed from one with broad stakeholder representation to one appointed by the California Governor. Given that California is a critical part of a larger western regional power market, how can we ensure that regional power needs are reflected in the decisions of the new state appointed Board? ANSWER: We really can't. Most of the time, the Board has a limited role. However, the "traffic controller" role becomes crucial when the power crunch comes. Every market participant needs to be worried that, during times of real power emergencies, the Cal ISO Board will be too willing to shoot first and ask questions later. Companies with firm transactions involving out-of-state entities may find their needs and commercial interests sacrificed to prevent local political problems. Instead of robust, competitive regional markets, politicizing transmission decisions practically guarantees an increasingly balkanized market.

Craig and Kim, As you know, I have obtained a 60 day trial subscription to Moody's RiskCalc. You wanted to know if it makes sense for Enron to purchase RiskCalc. Well, after plowing through their 100 page manual and sitting through today's 2-hour Moody's presentation, it is necessary for us to have information about Enron's counterparties to move to the next step with RiskCalc. We have obtained some information on Enron's European counterparties from our colleagues in the London office. We need for you and/or your colleagues in the Houston office to supply us with a list of Enron's North American counterparties. More specifically, to evaluate Moody's RiskCalc we will need the following financial inputs for Enron's North American (private firm) counterparties: Fiscal Year The prior twelve months of financial data are represented. Annual statements are usable as well as quarterly statements after summing the flow variables, such as cost of goods sold, net income, sales, and EBIT. The value should be a four-digit integer year without mention of the day or month such as 1999 or 2000. Forecasts until the year 2009 can be made. A constant rate of inflation is applied to future years using last year's (1999) inflation level. In general this 'estimation error' will not cause any great problems, as size affects default rates at very large scales (e.g., $10,000,000 vs. $1,000,000 makes a significant difference, $1,000,000 vs. $1,050,00 does not). Cash & Equivalents This measure of liquid assets includes cash and marketable securities. Inventory Inventories are taken directly from the balance sheet, in thousands dollars, without any alterations for accounting method (e.g., LIFO, FIFO, Average Cost). This item represents merchandise bought for resale and materials and supplies purchased for use in production of revenue. Specifically this would include purchase cost, sales cost, sales taxes, transportation costs, insurance costs, and storage costs. Current Assets This item primarily represents cash, inventories, accounts receivables, marketable securities, and other current assets. Total Assets Total Assets and every other variable are entered in thousands of dollars. For example, $15,500,000 should be entered as 15500. Specifically, total assets are the sum of current assets plus net property, plant, and equipment plus other noncurrent assets (including intangible assets, deferred items, and investments and advances). Leave previous year's total assets blank for Australian companies. Current Liabilities Liabilities are positive values. Included in current liabilities are short-term debt, accounts payable, and other current liabilities. Total Liabilities This balance sheet account, total liabilities, is a positive number representing the sum of current liabilities plus long-term debt plus other noncurrent liabilities (including deferred taxes, investment tax credit, and minority interest). Retained Earnings Retained Earnings, a historical measure of performance, is the cumulative earnings of the company less total dividend distributions to shareholders. Typically, it is the prior year's retained earnings plus net income less distributions. Retained earnings are generally positive. Some firms with low credit quality will have negative retained earnings. Leave this field blank for Australian companies. Sales This item consists of the industry segment's gross sales (the amount of actual billings to customers for regular sales completed during the period) reduced by cash discounts, trade discounts, and returned sales and allowances for which credit is given to customers. Cost of Goods Sold Entered in thousands of dollars, this value is generally a positive number less than sales. It represents all costs directly allocated by the company to production, such as material, labor, and overhead. Not fixed overhead or items that would be included in Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses. Leave this field blank for Australian companies. EBIT Earning before interest expense is operating income after depreciation. It can be positive or negative but is usually greater then net income. Interest Expense This item represents the periodic expense to the company of securing short- and long-term debt. Typically, we expect this charge to be approximately the prevailing interest rate times the total liabilities. One measure of computing this is: Interest Expense = 0.07 * total liabilities. Net Income This item represents the income (or loss) reported by a company after expenses and losses have been subtracted from all revenues and gains for the fiscal period including extraordinary items and discontinued operations. A loss is represented by a negative sign. For example, a $5,000,000 loss would be entered as -5000. Leave previous year's net income blank for Australian companies. Extraordinary Items Positive or negative, this item represents unusual items that sometimes appear on the income statement. The items are designated by the company as extraordinary and presented after net income from continuing operations and discontinued operations. These items include extraordinary gains/losses, income (loss) from discontinued operations, and cumulative affect of accounting changes. Expenses are entered as negative values, gains as positive values. Leave previous year's extraordinary items blank for Australian companies. Country This model is calibrated for the United States, Canada, and Australia. We look forward to receiving this information for Enron's private firm North American counterparties so that we can move on to the next step with the evaluation of RiskCalc. Thanks, Iris
Mike, Thanks for your message. You are on point as to my intent. From the discussion I had with Andy last week, there seems to be several similarities between the Metals business and industrial markets. I believe the blueprint that is forthcoming will provide more insight that will be helpful to you all. We would love to share this with you, and also discuss your system direction. There may be some opportunities for us to work together on the development. I would like to have a discussion to talk about next steps, and believe Andy is planning to initiate this after he returns from holiday. Let me know if you have some other ideas. I'm sorry that we didn't have a chance to get together last week while I was in London. My trip was very short, and I kept missing you when I went to your desk. I'll plan some time with you when I'm there next time.

I had you on my "To Do" list today to follow-up from our conversation last week. I appreciate your responses, and will follow-up as needed. Just to recap EIM's current inititives. PriceWaterhouseCoopers (PWC) was engaged in 10/00 to develop a business plan for tactical and strategic solutions for the projected growth in the physical business. In 11/00, AA was engaged to develop a "Blueprint" of EIM major processes (Deal Execution, Deal Capture, Risk Management, Logistics, Settlements and Financial Reporting), down to level 2 processes. The initiatives have been combined into one team focused on delivering the "Blueprint", a gap analysis of Enron systems to business needs and recommended systems. A complete "roadmap" should be laid out with a 0-3months, 4-6months, 7-9 months and 10-12months timeline. The plan addresses tactical also. Our overall objective: Build an infrastructure (people, processes and systems) that is scalable and supports the trading business of EIM. The current industries are Forest Products and Steel. However, additional industries may be added. The targeted infrastructure would require little change to support new industries. The delieverable is expected by the end of 2/01. We'd be happy to visit with you all (video conference or Houston,....) to give you more information. Let me know how to proceed. Thanks again for your time. Since I wasn't able to attend the Controllers' Conference last 10/00, I'm glad I got to meet you last week. Stay in touch. Brenda To: Brenda F Herod/HOU/ECT@ECT cc: Mike Jordan/LON/ECT@ECT, Paul Wallace/LON/ECT@ECT Subject: Metals Brenda As discussed at our meeting last week there are a few areas of commonality between Enron Metals and EIM that should allow leverage off common goals. In particular I promised info on a few areas: Project Q assessment A lot of the issues raised in the report are particular to Enron Metals (being to do with interfaces with our AS400 ysstem) however high level issues which formed part of the decision to not develop this for Enron metals were: Q is over specified for metals. Traffic / logistics for metals is less complex than oil & coal. Metals process tends towards Buy>Store>Sell whereas for liquids the storage is not as prevelant Metals logistics typically involves trucks whereas liquids is ship/barge 2. Inventory Controls Again the reports produced here have been very specific to Enron Metals. Paul Wallace a manager in the co-ordination function is working extensively on developing the controls in this area. I would suggest that you contact Paul directly if you wish to discuss specific areas or inventory controls in general. 3. Funding of inventory We have a structured finance facility here in London. The deal is specific to Enron Metals markets in that it works by reference to LME prices as these are the base index for all the positions placed in the facility. If structured financing is sort for EIM then it would be appropriate to talk to either David Tregar (Metals Commercial) or Bill Appleby (Global Finance) as an intro to the issues faced. 4. Curve Management Process The markets in which our merchanting division trades are based on the LME curves but are linked to a large number of basis curves for quality and location. Given the vast number we have opted to break down the markets by brand group and port location. E.G. for Copper this means we have a grid with 5 brand groups and 3 sets of port groups (13 for europe, 7 for the US and 6 for the Far East). The maintaince & price testing of the grids is made manageable by the fact the premiums only need be entered for brand and port groups by the traders yet prices can be tested by reference to node points i.e. price of specific brand at a given location which can be checked to a market quote. 5. Re recruitment of paper traders I haven't been able to contact him but I recall that the brother of David Rosenblum, one of the metals traders in Chicago, is a trader of recylced paper. I'll keep you posted on long term system development plans here in London. I'd appreciate same for EIM. Regards Andy

The Italian team worked with the Continental Gas desk to arrange this strategically important agreement with Blugas SpA., the wholesale gas company formed by the municipalities of Cremona, Lodi, Mantova and Pavia in north-eastern Italy. Enron has sourced 100,000 cubic metres per day of natural gas from northern Europe to transport to Italy, transiting it through Germany and Switzerland, despite fierce resistance from Ruhrgas and TransitGas respectively. Aside from isolated LNG imports by incumbent monopolies this is the first time that any company has managed to import natural gas by pipeline into Italy since the Italian gas sector was officially liberalised in August 2000. The gas, which started flowing at 06.00 on Thursday 17th May 2001, will be used to meet the needs of two thirds of Blugas' residential customers within the four municipalities. The current contract lasts for five months. Congratulations to Fabio Greco, Carsten Haack, Didier Magne, Michael Schuh, Marco Lantieri and Daniela Uguccioni. Enron in the Middle East Enron has relinquished its stake in Dolphin Energy, the joint venture company formed to develop gas reserves in Qatar. Enron has agreed to transfer its 24.5 per cent stake in the project to the United Arab Emirates Offset Group (UOG), the majority shareholder. The agreement allows Enron to deploy capital elsewhere and gives UOG the opportunity to seek new partners before the project moves into its next phase. Development of the Emden/Oude gas hub moves ahead fast An important milestone in the evolution of the new gas trading hub on the Dutch-German border was reached last week. Last Friday some of the major European gas players held a meeting to officially establish the Emden/Oude gas hub. Although Enron had already initiated the development of the Emden/Oude hub by making a market through EnronOnline as early as December 2000, the goal of this meeting was to set up a working group similar to the Zeebrugge focus group who can work on setting a legal framework for the Emden/Oude hub. Enron was elected as the only new market entrant in this group, reflecting the high level of respect industry peers have for Enron as a major player in the Continental gas market -- even from incumbents!

BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS East Power Midwest Origination Beginning late 2000, East Power Marketing implemented a complete market coverage strategy. Since then, EPMI has begun to develop relationships with hundreds of small &mom & pop8 municipalities. Many of these munis had no prior contact with Enron. As a result, East Power has executed a valuable 30 MW energy call option term purchase from the Municipal Energy Agency of Nebraska (MEAN) at a congested location. Enron Industrial Markets EIM has renamed Pulp, Paper & Lumber to Forest Products in order to fully encompass our multiple product offerings. East Power Development The Planning and Zoning Commission for Pompano Beach, FL approved ENA's rezoning request and site plan for the Pompano Beach Energy Center, a 510 megawatt peaking power plant. On the rezoning request, the vote was 6 to 1, and on the site plan, the vote was 7 to 0. The rezoning request will be forwarded to the Pompano Beach City Commission for their review. Additionally, the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) has announced its intention to issue an air permit for the facility. Next steps include a DEP public hearing on Monday, March 26, and the first of two votes on the rezoning request before the Pompano Beach City Commission, which is scheduled for Tuesday, March 27.

Open Forum Editorial in The San Francisco Chronicle by Kenneth Lay 3/1/01 What has happened in California over the past four years is not deregulation. It is misguided regulation. Deregulation does not mean eliminating customer choice and competition for most customers. Deregulation does not mean limiting new market entrants. Fewer than five percent of customers in California are served by competing suppliers. Deregulation does not mean creating a single central power pool from which all participants must buy and sell their wholesale power; the state Power Exchange effectively replaced three monopoly buyers with one monopoly buyer. Deregulation does not mean buying all of your commodity at the last minute, on the spot market, rather than planning ahead and purchasing most of the power under long-term contracts that lock in prices. The situation in California is the result of continued regulation, complicated by a series of natural and man-made factors.

NEWS FROM THE GLOBAL FLASH Enron Wind Enron Wind has purchased the factory facilities of the Dutch company, Aerpac, Europe's second largest producer of wind turbine rotor blades. This move represents a significant step towards fulfilling Enron Wind's strategic objective of manufacturing high-quality and technically sophisticated rotor blades in-house. Enron Wind will be using its own moulds to produce the rotor blades. The acquisition of the Almelo-based factory facilities, which are only 60 kilometres from Enron Wind's facilities in Salzbergen, Germany, gives the company a convenient base for European wide distribution.

---------------------- Forwarded by Phillip K Allen/HOU/ECT on 10/09/2000 02:00 PM --------------------------- Richard Burchfield 10/06/2000 06:59 AM To: Phillip K Allen/HOU/ECT@ECT cc: Beth Perlman/HOU/ECT@ECT Subject: Consolidated positions: Issues & To Do list Phillip, Below is the issues & to do list as we go forward with documenting the requirements for consolidated physical/financial positions and transport trade capture. What we need to focus on is the first bullet in Allan's list; the need for a single set of requirements. Although the meeting with Keith, on Wednesday, was informative the solution of creating a infinitely dynamic consolidated position screen, will be extremely difficult and time consuming. Throughout the meeting on Wednesday, Keith alluded to the inability to get consensus amongst the traders on the presentation of the consolidated position, so the solution was to make it so that a trader can arrange the position screen to their liking (much like Excel). What needs to happen on Monday from 3 - 5 is a effort to design a desired layout for the consolidated position screen, this is critical. This does not exclude building a capability to create a more flexible position presentation for the future, but in order to create a plan that can be measured we need firm requirements. Also, to reiterate that the goals of this project is a project plan on consolidate physical/financial positions and transport trade capture. The other issues that have been raised will be capture as projects on to themselves, and will need to be prioritised as efforts outside of this project. I have been involved in most of the meetings and the discussions have been good. I believe there has been good communication between the teams, but now we need to have focus on the objectives we set out to solve.

We've had three meetings which brought out very different issues from different traders. We really need a single point of contact to help drive the trader requirements and help come to a consensus regarding the requirements. We're getting hit with a lot of different requests, many of which appear to be outside the scope of position consolidation. Things left to do: I think it may be useful to try to formulate a high level project goal to make it as clear as possible what we're trying to accomplish with this project. It'll help determine which requests fall under the project scope. Go through the list of requests to determine which are in scope for this project and which fall out of scope. For those in scope, work to define relative importance (priority) of each and work with traders to define the exact requirements of each. Define the desired lay out of the position manager screen: main view and all drill downs. Use the above to formulate a project plan. Things requested thus far (no particular order): Inclusion of Sitara physical deals into the TDS position manager and deal ticker. Customized rows and columns in the position manager (ad hoc rows/columns that add up existing position manager rows/columns). New drill down in the position manager to break out positions by: physical, transport, swaps, options, ... Addition of a curve tab to the position manager to show the real-time values of all curves on which the desk has a position. Ability to split the current position grid to allow daily positions to be shown directly above monthly positions. Each grouped column in the top grid would be tied to a grouped column in the bottom grid. Ability to properly show curve shift for float-for-float deals; determine the appropriate positions to show for each: Gas Daily for monthly index, Physical gas for Nymex, Physical gas for Inside Ferc, Physical gas for Mid market. Ability for TDS to pull valuation results based on a TDS flag instead of using official valuations. Position and P&L aggregation across all gas desks. Ability to include the Gas Price book into TDS: Inclusion of spread options in our systems. Ability to handle volatility skew and correlations. Ability to revalue all options incrementally throughout the trading day. Approximate delta changes between valuations using instantaneous gamma or a gamma grid. Valuation of Gas Daily options. A new position screen for options (months x strike x delta). TBD. Inclusion of positions for exotic options currently managed in spreadsheets. Ability to isolate the position change due to changed deals in the position manager. Ability to view change deal P&L in the TDS deal ticker. Show new deal terms, prior deal terms, and net P&L affect of the change. Eliminate change deals with no economic impact from the TDS deal ticker. Position drill down in the position manager to isolate the impact of individual deals on the position total in a grid cell. Benchmark positions in TDS. Deployment of TDS in Canada. Currency and volume uom conversions. Implicit and explicit position break out issues. -- Allan. PS: Colleen is setting up a meeting tomorrow to discuss the direction for transport. Hopefully we'll know much better where that part stands at that point.

We have forwarded by fax the latest version of this bill. The Assembly Committee was only able to discuss three sections of the bill before adjourning until 1 pm tomorrow. Chairman Wright expects to take the remainder of the afternoon tomorrow to go through the bill line by line and expects to only get part way. He anticipates no hearings over the weekend and more hearings to follow Monday through Wednesday next week. Thus no vote on the bill is expected for a while. In addition, all parties, including Wright expect amendments as a result of ongoing negotiations between the Governor, Speaker, the utilities and the generators. These would center on the price the generators will bid and how much if anything the utilities will have to absorb of past undercollections. There is no indication at the present of when they will show or what those amendments will say. Initial analysis of the bill raises the following issues: Most important issue On pages 3 - 8 of the bill, new provisions are added to AB 1890 (Section 368 et al) to define how the TRA and TCBA are to be calculated and what the Commission must allow in rates. These provisions appear unduly generous to the utilities and may well provoke an immediate end to the rate freeze if enacted. Here are the main elements of the language. 368.2 The Legislature finds that it is appropriate to allow the utility to recover the reasonable costs incurred to purchase wholesale energy. (that means the big under collection from summer 2000 to date) 368.3 New definitions of the "adjusted TCBA" and "net undercollected amounts" are provided which appear to provide for the following way of wrapping up transition cost ratemaking. 1. The TCBA is the positive balance as of 12-31-00 increased by the trust transfer amounts to be recovered in rates for 2001, also increased by amounts included in retail rates for prior period costs (if any are authorized by the CPUC), and also increased by the balances in the generation memo accounts as of 12-31-00. 2. The new "net uncollected amount" that the utilities could collect in rates would be the current TRA account, as reduced by the above defined balance in the TCBA as of 12-31-00. NOTE: Edison claims this is the same mechanism that Enron proposed to the Commission as an alternate to the TURN proposal. It has similarities to the comments we filed Nov. 9, but our official position is still to support the from-the-begining netting of the two accounts as proposed by TURN. 3. There is also language to lock in the CPUCs current ratemaking for these accounts so that the TURN proposal to net the TRA and TCBA cannot be implemented. 4. The utilities'retained generation will be put in rate base at book value, except for the nukes, which will have their rate base calculated WITHOUT the application of overcollections in the transition cost balancing account to accelerate depreciation. 5. The CPUC is supposed to establish a dedicated rate component within the existing rates as of 1-8-01 to allow recovery of the net undercollection (the large TRA undercollection as reduced per the above). The undercollection is to be amortized over 10 years. 6. The utilities will not have to buy power if their credit rating drops below BBB+. The remainder of the bill has to do with the mechanism for the DWR to purchase power and to have revenue reduction bonds pay for costs in excess of those recovered in the utilities rates. Rod Wright is seeking a "stop loss"provision which will force a rate increase once the DWR has used up all its appropriation and all the bond revenues to buy power. This is controversial with the other members. We have been asked for a reaction by the committee members and would like a response ASAP, certainly by mid-day Friday. This will require balancing the concerns about and early end to the rate freeze with the increased likelihood of payment for power transactions once DWR is funded. The prospect of successful participation in more auctions is unclear unless more practical auction terms are used. However, the auction process is not spelled out in this bill. The generators are supporting an early end to the freeze so that they can be paid...I am in meetings starting early in the am so I will not be on the 10:30 call, please send comments to scott govenor..either by e mail or by fax, his fax is 9164480816.

After leaving office, Mayor Riordan will take an executive position running the LA Unified School district's classroom computer program. I would think this could be good for TFA. How are you coming with the conatcts I gave you? PD Saturday, November 4, 2000 <<...>> News from Los Angeles in the Los Angeles Times Riordan to Join L.A. Unified After He Leaves City Hall <<...>> Mayor: In an address to Valley leaders, he strongly denounces secession, then makes surprising disclosure about plan to take executive post with district. By JIM NEWTON, Times Staff Writer In his final annual address on the state of the San Fernando Valley, Los Angeles Mayor Richard Riordan on Friday delivered his most forceful call ever for that area to remain part of the larger city, then surprised the audience by announcing that he will go to work for the Los Angeles Unified School District when he finishes his term in office. Speaking to a group of Valley business leaders, Riordan denounced secession on political, moral and practical grounds, warning that it would force a tax hike, leave the Valley with uncertain leadership and abandon the city's poor. "I love the Valley," Riordan said. "I feel that you're part of the family, and I don't want you to desert the family. . . . The rest of the city needs you. You can't abandon the poor. It just isn't right." Riordan's pointed rejection of secession represents a significant escalation in his efforts to head off that politically charged prospect--a topic so heated that in a mayoral debate following Riordan's speech, not one of the six candidates angling for election in April so much as mentioned the word. Riordan, by contrast, tackled the issue head-on and in far more confrontational terms than he ever has before. "Secession," Riordan said bluntly, "is a lousy idea." As significant as that pronouncement was, however, the mayor almost overshadowed it with an offhand personal remark in response to a question after his speech. Asked to elaborate on his thoughts about breaking up the school district, Riordan let slip that he intends to go to work for L.A. Unified after he finishes his second term as mayor, which ends next summer. The mayor, who helped elect four of the school board's seven members, said he has been in discussions with Supt. Roy Romer and has agreed to accept an "executive position" with the district next year. Riordan did not elaborate, but in an interview later, he said he and the superintendent had agreed that Riordan would run the district's classroom computer program. The former Colorado governor, who now runs the city's schools, was not immediately available for comment. At the district, Riordan said, he will be in charge of working with schools to make effective use of computers in the classroom. Riordan, who has donated thousands of computers to schools in various parts of the country, said the job fit his talents. "I think this is something I'm good at," he said. "I know the experts in the field." Riordan's post-mayoral plans have for months been the object of much speculation. Most observers predicted he would do something in the field of education, because no topic animates Riordan as much as children and schools. But Riordan is a multimillionaire, and he will be over 70 when he finishes his second term as mayor. He passed up the chance to run for governor in 1998, and some friends had predicted he would slow down when he wrapped up his mayoral administration. The idea of a quiet retirement, however, seems to have little appeal for Riordan, an energetic and restless man. Asked how long he intended to take off between finishing his work as mayor and starting his new job at the school district, Riordan responded: "three or four hours." Riordan has held office for nearly eight years, and for that entire time has enjoyed the strong support of the San Fernando Valley. It was the Valley that helped put him in office in 1993, and polls since have shown that though he is popular citywide, he enjoys his greatest approval ratings north of the Hollywood Hills. As the race to succeed him gathers steam, some of the candidates clearly covet Riordan's base in the Valley. On Friday, City Councilman Joel Wachs often invoked the mayor's name during a low-energy debate among the six leading mayoral candidates. Among other things, Wachs praised Riordan's economic development initiatives and his handling of the recently completed negotiations between the city and federal government over the future of the Los Angeles Police Department. So effusive was Wachs in his praise of Riordan that eventually businessman Steve Soboroff complained. As Soboroff pointed out to the audience, Riordan has endorsed his candidacy, not Wachs'. Soboroff suggested that his rival withdraw from the race and back him instead. Wachs laughed, but did not respond. The debate--really more of a panel discussion in which the candidates rarely addressed one another, while sitting cheek-by-jowl in straight-backed chairs--also was notable as the first joint appearance of the candidates to include state Controller Kathleen Connell, the latest contender to join the race. Connell used her debut debate performance to stress her determination to bring tough fiscal management to the problems of Los Angeles. She addressed issues such as police corruption, transportation and the city's business climate in terms of their economic impact, arguing that her experience in the private sector and as controller made her the right person to handle that task. In other debate highlights, City Atty. James Hahn and Assemblyman Antonio Villaraigosa enthusiastically welcomed the signing of the consent decree with the federal government on police reform. Connell, Wachs and U.S. Rep. Xavier Becerra also applauded the deal, though in less glowing terms. Soboroff was the only candidate to oppose it, calling it an abdication of local responsibility.

Jeff, I understand at last week's PRC you asked Dick what the difference was between EECC, and, say, Brown and Root. Let me try and answer that and at the same time provide my recommendations on how EECC should evolve inside the new Enron. a. Enron does not "need" EECC; however, Enron has realized extra value from the EECC model since 1990. b. EECC has taken an Enron liability (construction risk) and turned it into an asset (net income). The risk was incurred by Enron's decision to build assets around the world. c. Enron could have out-sourced most or all of its engineering and construction management since 1990; but for about the same market price and contract value, EECC has performed this work and accumulated over $250MM of net income for Enron. d. In addition, EECC has performed the work generally in a manner superior to the rest of the industry. We have avoided disasters experienced by Brown and Root, Black and Veatch, Snamprogetti, Raytheon, and Stone and Webster, which presumably could have occurred while performing Enron's work. We've out performed them because we had better risk management skills. e. Cost avoidance: In addition to performing this work at market price and at the same time making $250MM net income, as Jack Urquhart pointed out at the last Board meeting, we have avoided tens and tens of millions of dollars of extra cost during execution. The Enron portfolio of construction risks averages in billions of dollars, so even 1 or 2 percent in nuisance-type change orders from outside contractors would have added up to substantial extra costs. f. ROIC: as we recognized the Enron deal flow was decreasing, we were asked in the last two to three budget cycles to maintain or grow our net income. Therefore, we embarked on non-Enron third-party construction business. This marginal income has increased our use of working capital. Still, this year's return on all our working capital will be about $22%, down from 29% last year, but still a 25% average over two years which is not unreasonable. You asked about the details of our working capital; I'm scheduled to brief you on 2 Oct. g. Internal flexibility: there have been many instances over the years where having an internal contractor has enhanced the ability of an Enron developer to close the deal. For example, on the 1999 Peakers, although other companies have out-sourced the same type of work, I assure you that because of the late start getting going by the Enron developers, having to out-source would of easily cost us four to six weeks of summer revenues on the schedule. On our current Dabhol LNG project, an outside turnkey contractor would never be motivated to try and maintain the current schedule, given the weaknesses in the Owners' contractual positions, including quarry suitability and subsea surface rock surprises, etc. Many other examples abound. h. Downsizing risks: I think the risk to Enron of what happens to a large EECC in the event of downsizing during a market cycle is misconceived. EECC in Houston has about 350 employees, many of whom are accountants, lawyers, contract specialists, program managers, all of whom have skill sets which are in demand in other Enron business units. Therefore, any downsizing of EECC, if done over a reasonable period of time should be able to avoid a significant severance cost risk. Nevertheless, as Enron changes to a less-asset dependent company, and because of the current value in monetizing assets, the need for change is necessary. I think it is important to agree on a clear plan and brief our employees, all of whom are stressed by the uncertainty of where they're going. This will have a negative impact on the company's performance, unless addressed. My recommendations for evolving EECC is as follows: a. Sell NEPCO and phase out other non-Enron third-party lump sum work (already on-going). b. Define a "slice" of EECC in Houston as "NEPCO-Houston," and package this with the NEPCO sell. A buyer might value the EECC-Houston expertise in cogeneration and gas-related services. c. Finish the Enron work now under contract, which will take from one to two years. d. Continue to self-perform any new Enron work in the future which I see centered in North America, Europe and possibly Brazil where assets may be required to enhance the Enron networks being developed for trading purposes. I think it would be a mistake to allow the decentralized business units to attempt to manage outside EPC contractors without a residual Center of Excellence (EECC). e. Move EECC inside EES, allowing EES to take advantage of a continued income stream from EECC. A subsequent step would be to merge the infrastructure between EES' Global Services and EECC. f. Slowly downsize the company as the current work evolves and the work load permits. g. Continue to develop engineering services for customers, without taking construction risks, but taking advantage of our reputation for due diligence and risk mitigation. I think this effort could fit well inside EES as another service provided by Enron. h. Continue EECC's initiative to develop an E-commerce revenue stream, currently being undertaken in coordination with Enron Networks, but relying on EECC's intellectual capital, lessons learned and contacts in the industry. I think we have good potential for this opportunity, which is actively underway. In summary, EECC's assets are the intellectual capital of its people and the collective systems and procedures it has developed. Both can continue to provide value to Enron inside EES. I've been discussing details with Lou and Joe, but I strongly recommend we agree on a clearly defined plan and allow me to communicate it to our employees. LI43200

----- Forwarded by Richard B Sanders/HOU/ECT on 04/30/2001 06:42 AM ----- [email protected] 04/27/2001 07:51 PM To: [email protected] cc: Subject: NSM Update Richard, The only significant deposition this week is taking place in Minneapolis. The deponent is Arthur Cobb, a disclosure/due diligence expert retained by Robins, Kaplan in several cases in which Enron is not named. Mr. Cobb's report did not mention ECT Securities, and the California plaintiffs did not designate him to testify in the CA cases, so we decided not to attend his deposition. We are getting daily transcripts by e-mail. Next week an expert designated by the CA plaintiffs on causation and damage issues is being deposed in San Francisco. Roland has a scheduling conflict, so I am sending Jonathan Goldblatt. The subject on which we want to ask questions is damages relating to certain purchases by Farallon after the initial offering. This is a very discrete area, easy to understand, and Jonathan is on top of it. I believe that you recently received a bill from Gerry McGrath. Gerry worked very hard on his report, putting in about 50% more hours than he thought he would when he agreed to cap the total fee for his report. He is very focused on the requirement in his engagement letter that he be paid in 30 days. I think Gerry did quite a good job, and we definitely need his best effort going forward. I would urge Enron to pay Gerry's bill very promptly. Farallon is currently threatening to move to compel further answers to interrogatories from us. It is much ado about nothing. We just want to deal with it in the least expensive way. Many of the plaintiffs have filed motions around the country, including in CA, seeking to compel Natwest to produce more audio tapes of employee conversations. My guess is that the plaintiffs have found more good stuff, and Natwest is trying to limit their losses. We are hard at work on the research that you and I have been discussing. It is frankly quite complex and involves several unanswered questions of law. The problem is that CA has a special statutory contribution provision (pro rata, not relative fault) in the state securities statutes and a common law doctrine of partial indemnity in tort actions that is based on relative fault. The later doctrine may not apply to the securities causes of action against ECT Securities, but definitely applies to the common law fraud and negligent misrepresentation causes of action. How all of this works together is virtually uncharted. With reference to your question about procedures at trial, none of the defendants has cross-complained against the other defendants for a determination of relative fault in the pending case; and, on the basis of the current pleadings, no such determination will be made at trial. If Enron goes to trial and loses, along with others, theoretically the plaintiffs could collect their entire judgment from Enron and leave Enron to pursue the other defendants, post-trial, for their respective shares of the liability, whether such shares are determined pro rata or by relative fault. We are working on a memorandum or outline that will lay all of this out for you. I think you will find that Enron has some powerful incentives to settle (assuming that we can get the price low enough.)

Thanks! Our team has been working on the supreme decree for over two years and it is gratifying to finally bring this in, given that it will have a significant financial benefit for Enron/Transredes. I have included an executive summary and detailed report below. Executive Summary Through the efforts of the Transredes regulatory team: A presidential Supreme Decree, establishing a new tariff methodology for Bolivian gas transportation, has issued and gone into effect. The recovery mechanism we proposed will allow Transredes to recover over US$100 million, which was at risk. This amount, residing in the gas deferred account, will be recovered over 20 years (instead of 25 under the former regulations) and will take the form of a surcharge on all gas transported by any pipeline in Bolivia (instead of being assessed only on Transredes transport volumes, as per the former regulations). In the future, Transredes will be able to fully recover all of its prudently incurred costs, and the full rate of return contemplated by the Hydrocarbon Law, via tariffs charged for transportation on the domestic and export oil concessions, and the export gas concession. The mechanism advanced by government to subsidize the transportation tariff of the domestic gas concession in the future will, in all likelihood, allow Transredes to receive the full rate of return contemplated by the Hydrocarbon Law, although the mechanism needs to be fleshed out further. The Supreme Decree will also allow Transredes, rate case, financing program and pending bond issue to move forward. Detailed Report This is a significant development in the Bolivian regulatory arena. The Supreme Decree, establishing a new tariff methodology for natural gas transportation in Bolivia, was signed by President Banzer and was published in the official gazette on Wednesday. We officially learned about it yesterday upon receipt of a certified copy. The new methodology and regulations are now in effect. The decree provides for full recovery of Transredes' gas deferred account over the next twenty years via a surcharge on ALL volumes exported from Bolivia, whether transported by Transredes or not. The magnitude of the gas deferred account is much greater than anticipated due primarily to severe export shortfalls as compared to projected export volumes. This is due in large part to delays in the development of the Brazilian market and to expiration of gas sales and export agreements between Bolivia and Argentina (in 1999). Please see the attached graph comparing the volumes projected by the Bolivian government to set transitory tariffs, prior to privatization, with the actual volumes transported. The gas deferred account is estimated to be approximately US$101 million (plus approximately US$ 60MM for the hydrocarbon liquids deferred account, giving a total of US$161MM). Please see attached Gas Deferred Account and Total Deferred Account graphs. These amounts represent the shortfall in revenues experienced due to insufficiently high transitory tariffs, plus the cost of capital at 7%. The recovery mechanism for the gas deferred account represents the mitigation of a significant exposure that existed at the time we acquired the company: the transportation concessions are nonexclusive and producers have the explicit right in the Hydrocarbon Law to build their own (bypass) pipelines, yet the deferred account recovery mechanism placed the burden of recovery solely on the transportation tariffs of Transredes. The change in regulations not only secures recovery of these amounts in a commercially viable manner but will dis-incentivize threatened bypasses. In the future, Transredes will also be able to fully recover all of its prudently incurred costs and rate of return via tariffs charged for transportation on the domestic and export oil concessions, and the export gas concession. We believe that the tariff mechanism for the domestic gas concession may require additional detail work. The mechanism provides for a ceiling rate of US$0.41 for transportation in the domestic concession and a surcharge on all export volumes of US$0.03. These tariff components will not be sufficient to recover the costs and rate of return contemplated by the Hydrocarbon Law to be recovered by Transredes. However, there appears to be no impediment to collecting the revenue shortfall in the Transredes export gas tariff. The regulatory team will continue trying to "firm up" this mechanism. The Supreme Decree will also allow Transredes' rate case to move forward. The rate case filing made in late January kicked off a process that will culminate in the approval of new economic rates to be effective on May 16. The decree and rate case filing will also allow the Transredes financing program and pending bond issue to move forward. These have been stalled for months due to lender doubts and uncertainty about rates and recovery of the deferred account.

GLOBAL GREEN USA AND KEY STAKEHOLDERS JOINTLY RELEASE BASELINE STUDY OF BEVERAGE CONTAINER RECOVERY PROGRAMS For Immediate Release - ATLANTA, January 16, 2002 - A unique coalition of industry, governmental agencies and environmental organizations has released a study that, for the first time, provides baseline statistics on the costs, benefits and effectiveness of programs to recover discarded beverage containers for recycling. Understanding Beverage Container Recycling: A Value Chain Assessment is the final report of the Multi-Stakeholder Recovery Project, Stage One. Businesses and Environmentalists Allied for Recycling (BEAR), a project of Global Green USA, launched the initiative last Spring in an effort to bring together long-standing opponents in the battle over different approaches to recycling in a fact-based approach to public policy making. Project participants included The Coca-Cola Company, Waste Management, Inc., Beaulieu of America, Tomra North America, Southeastern Container, GrassRoots Recycling Network and the Container Recycling Institute. The report was prepared by a research consulting! team comprising R.W. Beck, Inc., Franklin Associates, Ltd., the Tellus Institute and Sound Resource Management Group. Research was coordinated by the project manager, Boisson & Associates. Working intensively over six months, project participants made progress towards their objective of identifying jointly supported policies by participating in a study of existing U.S. recovery programs. 'We made a good start by showing that groups with divergent views can work together and reach substantial agreement,' said Ben Jordan, Environmental Manager for The Coca-Cola Company. 'We didn't agree to recommend any particular program, but we established a model for overcoming the historical entrenchment that has stymied progress for two decades,' according to Rick Best, Board Member of GrassRoots Recycling Network. The report is a snapshot of U.S. programs as they operated in 1999, and does not attempt to project how programs would perform if they were to be expanded or replicated in other areas. The report contrasts the effectiveness of different programs in detail, and verifies that deposit systems recover the highest percentage of discarded containers, followed by municipal curbside programs and residential drop-off programs. 'But the cost of recovery programs is more subtle than advocates on either side have been willing to admit,' said Pierre Ferrari, BEAR's Chair. The findings indicate some ways that the costs of deposit and other recycling programs can be reduced. But participants stressed that the report does not attempt to address important implementation questions regarding new or expanded recycling systems. The report also shows the environmental advantages of recycling containers. 'We documented several key benefits in this collaborative process, for example, beverage co! ntainer recycling saved about 147 trillion BTU in 1999, that's equivalent to over 32 million barrels of oil,' said Matt Petersen, President and CEO of Global Green USA. Project participants agreed that there is a need to continue fact-based, collaborative discussions and will invite additional stakeholders to participate. 'The Multi-Stakeholder Recovery Project is a critical component of the movement to secure voluntary, long-term product stewardship agreements in the U.S.,' according to Sherry Enzler, Director of the Minnesota Office of Environmental Assistance. Future efforts are likely to concentrate on addressing stakeholder concerns about different policies. One key issue is the need for aggressive market development initiatives to minimize potential market volatility associated with increasing recovery. Businesses and Environmentalists Allied for Recycling, a project of Global Green USA, is a coalition dedicated to increasing the national recycling rate for used beverage containers to 80%. Its members are united by agreement on principles including: minimizing environmental impacts while improving all packaging, creating sustainable jobs and businesses, and working with clarity and honesty to understand costs and evaluate the widest range of policies and practices to achieve its goal. Global Green USA -- created in 1994 as the U.S. affiliate of Mikhail Gorbachev's environmental movement Green Cross International -- works in cooperation with individuals, industry, and government to foster a global value shift toward a sustainable and secure world. The report, and additional information on the project, are available on BEAR's website at www.globalgreen.org/bear. ------------------------------------------------------------------- GLOBAL GREEN USA, The US Affiliate of Green Cross International Global Green USA works in cooperation with individuals, industry, and government to foster a global value shift toward a sustainable and secure world.

By the way, who is Al referring to when he sais Doug is working with "Enron Central" and who has he contacted re: "Enron guidance." Sheesh. -----Original Message----- From: TOMPKINS, ROBIN Sent: Wednesday, August 29, 2001 9:12 AM To: Kaufman, Paul Subject: Fwd: RE:New Unofficial Committee Contacting Decision Makers see additional note from Doug Nichols. -----Original Message----- Date: 08/29/2001 09:10 am (Wednesday) From: DOUGLAS NICHOLS To: TOMPKINS, ROBIN Subject: Fwd: RE:New Unofficial Committee Contacting Decision Makers This is the latest status on Howard's effort - PGE is included in the "in favor" group in Howard's message - but both Al and I have since let him know he should not include us as being "in favor" unless and until we've coordinated this with Enron - I'm relying on you to do that. Time is very short - Howard needs to be moving on this now if he has any shot at all of influencing the outcome. While I agree the message ought to be delivered, I'm not optimistic there is time for the legislature to do anything else at this point. If nothing else, it would be good let the decision makers know that their plan may not have the hoped for result, so they can't say no one told them. dn -----Original Message----- Date: 08/28/2001 09:59 pm (Tuesday) From: AL ALEXANDERSON To: "[email protected]".IXGate.WIZ CC: DOUGLAS NICHOLS Subject: RE:New Unofficial Committee Contacting Decision Makers Doug and I have been debating wether there might be a broader Enron plan to support the legislation even with the 1 billion shortage to sellers. We're still trying to get Enron guidance on this. Possibly we'd rather have an expensive solution instead of no solution. I'm traveling with my cell phone all of tomorrow and Doug is working on Enron Central. Please stand by in terms of adding our name to the agressive list. Sorry for the mixed signals. al >>> "Howard J. Weg" <[email protected]> 08/28/01 09:35PM >>> I have not heard back from all members of the Unofficial Committee regarding my email dated August 27, 2001 with respect to the proposal to contact the Governor and Legislators regarding the pending legislation on SCE. Some have suggested that the message needs to be stronger and others have suggested that the message is too strong. Our Ex Officio members BPA and WAPA want it to be clear that they are not involved in any way with addressing the state government on this or other issues. As you know, I want very much to reach as broad of a consensus on this action as is possible, and to protect the interests of all members. Virtually all members agree that a bankruptcy case for or litigation against SCE would probably not be a good thing and we do not want to advocate for bankruptcy or litigation. After all, the Unofficial Committee was organized to provide a different approach generally. The purpose of contacting the Governor and the Legislature is to let them know that the legislation they are now considering, which leaves SCE about $1 billion short on the proposed financing to pay creditors, may cause some other sellers to take precipitous action in filing an involuntary petitition or initiating litigation or arbitration that could delay or prevent the financing at even the lower $2.9 billion level, which will adversly affect SCE and all creditors generally. We should point out that not all sellers are in agreement on what action will be taken. The message is not intended to threaten anything and it is not necessarily designed to stop legislation altogether, only legislation that might actually make the situation worse for all sellers and SCE. The tone of the presentation, if we make one, will be low key, non threatening, and in the spirit of helping the legislature and the Governor design a package that will avoid the bankruptcy, litigation and other alternatives that others might be forced to consider if the bill is passed, leaving the energy sellers out in the cold. If there remain some members of the Committee that are not willing to be associated with the message outlined above, then I propose that we give such members the alternative of remaining members of the Unofficial Committee and allowing us, if asked, to identify any such members that prefer not to be a part of the message although they want to support an approach that avoids litigation and bankruptcy for SCE. I understand that the LADWP and Coral Power would like this approach adopted. As I explained in my prior email, it has been suggested that the proposed bill that leaves SCE short by a billion dollars will likely pass after Labor Day and before the Sept 14 adjournment. That is why timing is important. Those of you that have not responed, please respond. Those of you that were concerned that the message was unclear, please review this email and consider or reconsider your positions, as the case may be. As of right now, there are only 11 votes: 9 in favor and 2 against. The polls are still open so please let me know your position. You should be aware that the City of Glendale notified me that it determined that actual or potential conflicts of interest with the Unofficial Committee required it to resign from the Unofficial Committee.

---------------------- Forwarded by Gerald Nemec/HOU/ECT on 07/02/99 11:13 AM --------------------------- Enron Capital & Trade Resources Corp. From: Office Chairman @ ENRON 07/01/99 12:33 PM To: Enron Worldwide cc: Subject: Organizational Changes Interoffice Memorandum Enron's performance has been exceptional. This performance is reflected in our stock price, in the recognition we receive in the media and financial communities, and, most importantly, in the enthusiasm of our people. It has been clear to us for some time that we are driving fundamental change in the marketplace and that our natural gas, electricity and communications networks can be positioned for even greater growth. A &new economy8 is emerging, an economy based on intellectual capital and the compelling economics of networks. Capturing the opportunities in this new economy calls for increased coordination and integration across our wholesale (ECT, ECM, EI), retail (EES), and communications (ECI) businesses. It is our intention to combine the operations of these businesses into a cohesive organization that will ensure we realize the growth we foresee in all our businesses. To this end, we are initiating a number of organization and staffing changes in these businesses and related changes in the Enron Office of the Chairman, in Corporate Staff groups, and in a number of management/personnel committees. Other business units, EOG, GPG, PGE, and Azurix, will not be directly affected. Accordingly, the following changes are effective immediately. Enron Office of the Chairman Joe Sutton will join the Office of the Chairman as Vice Chairman. In his new role, Joe will work with the two of us to manage the operations of the company. Rebecca Mark, previously Vice Chairman of the company, will now fully concentrate on her responsibilities as Chairman and CEO of Azurix, our most recent public company. Rebecca has also been elected to the Enron Board of Directors, effective today. Ken Harrison, previously Vice Chairman of the company, will fully concentrate on his responsibilities as Chairman and CEO of Portland General Electric and Non-Executive Chairman of Enron Communications. Ken will continue to serve on Enron's Board of Directors. Redefined Business Units ECT, ECM, EI, EES, and ECI will be regrouped into eight regions/businesses and five global functions. Each region/business will be operated as an independent entity but will coordinate staffing, career paths, compensation and performance review across all units. Each global function will provide its specialized expertise across all regions/businesses. Included in these functions is a new technology function, which will focus on information systems and growth of our e-commerce capabilities where we believe there is enormous potential. These organizational units and their leadership are as follows: Regions/Businesses North America: Cliff Baxter, CEO; Kevin Hannon, COO Europe: Mark Frevert, CEO; John Sherriff, President; Dan McCarty, COO South America: Jim Bannantine, Co-CEO; Diomedes Christodoulou, Co-CEO India: Sanjay Bhatnagar, CEO Caribbean, Middle East: David Haug, CEO Asia, Africa: Rebecca McDonald, CEO EES: Lou Pai, CEO; Tom White, Vice Chairman ECI: Joe Hirko, Co-CEO; Ken Rice, Co-CEO (Ken Harrison ) non-executive Chairman) Global Functions Risk Management: Greg Whalley, CEO Finance: Andy Fastow, CFO; Jeff McMahon, Treasurer Asset Operations: Kurt Huneke, CEO EE&CC: Larry Izzo, CEO Technology: Mike McConnell, CEO Corporate Staff All corporate and EI staff units will be regrouped into six corporate staff groups. These staff groups will support all operations of Enron. These organizational units and their leadership are as follows: Legal: Jim Derrick, EVP and General Counsel; Rob Walls, SVP and Deputy General Counsel Risk Assessment and Control: Rick Buy, EVP Accounting and HR: Rick Causey, EVP and Chief Accounting Officer Investor Relations: Mark Koenig, EVP Other Staff Groups: Steve Kean, EVP and Chief of Staff Corporate Development: To be determined. Committees A new Executive Committee will be formed to replace the existing Management and Operating Committees. Membership will be as follows: Ken Lay, Chairman Jeff Skilling, Alternate Chairman Joe Sutton Stan Horton Jim Bannantine Kurt Huneke Cliff Baxter Larry Izzo Sanjay Bhatnagar Steve Kean Rick Buy Mark Koenig Rick Causey Rebecca Mark (Ad hoc) Diomedes Christodoulou Mike McConnell Jim Derrick Rebecca McDonald Andy Fastow Jeff McMahon Peggy Fowler Lou Pai Mark Frevert Mark Papa (Ad hoc) Kevin Hannon Ken Rice Ken Harrison John Sherriff David Haug Greg Whalley Joe Hirko Tom White Four other committees, which will be essential to the success of this new organization, will be formed. These committees are: Managing Director and SVP Personnel Committee: Jeff Skilling, Chairman Vice President Personnel Committee: Kevin Hannon, Chairman Vision and Values Committee: Joe Sutton, Chairman Workforce Diversity: Ken Lay, Chairman Details of membership on these committees will follow shortly. Summary Over the next several weeks all of the specifics of this reorganization will be further ironed out and communicated.

EnronOnline Statistics Below are the latest figures for EnronOnline as of May 29, 2001. * Total Life to Date Transactions > 1,015,000 * Life to Date Notional Value of Transactions > $610 billion NEWS FROM THE GLOBAL FLASH Enron arranges first gas pipeline import into Italy Enron has continued its pioneering activities in the Continental gas market by arranging the first gas import into Italy. The Italian team worked with the Continental Gas desk to arrange this strategically important agreement with Blugas SpA., the wholesale gas company formed by the municipalities of Cremona, Lodi, Mantova and Pavia in north-eastern Italy. Enron has sourced 100,000 cubic metres per day of natural gas from northern Europe to transport to Italy, transiting it through Germany and Switzerland, despite fierce resistance from Ruhrgas and TransitGas respectively. Aside from isolated LNG imports by incumbent monopolies this is the first time that any company has managed to import natural gas by pipeline into Italy since the Italian gas sector was officially liberalised in August 2000. The gas, which started flowing at 06.00 on Thursday 17th May 2001, will be used to meet the needs of two thirds of Blugas' residential customers within the four municipalities. The current contract lasts for five months. Congratulations to Fabio Greco, Carsten Haack, Didier Magne, Michael Schuh, Marco Lantieri and Daniela Uguccioni. Enron in the Middle East Enron has relinquished its stake in Dolphin Energy, the joint venture company formed to develop gas reserves in Qatar. Enron has agreed to transfer its 24.5 per cent stake in the project to the United Arab Emirates Offset Group (UOG), the majority shareholder. The agreement allows Enron to deploy capital elsewhere and gives UOG the opportunity to seek new partners before the project moves into its next phase. Development of the Emden/Oude gas hub moves ahead fast An important milestone in the evolution of the new gas trading hub on the Dutch-German border was reached last week. Last Friday some of the major European gas players held a meeting to officially establish the Emden/Oude gas hub. Although Enron had already initiated the development of the Emden/Oude hub by making a market through EnronOnline as early as December 2000, the goal of this meeting was to set up a working group similar to the Zeebrugge focus group who can work on setting a legal framework for the Emden/Oude hub. Enron was elected as the only new market entrant in this group, reflecting the high level of respect industry peers have for Enron as a major player in the Continental gas market -- even from incumbents!

Wanted to give you brief feedback on our efforts to become the 1st Fortune 500 Company that has a 100% green headquarters. We've established a company-wide team and a working plan going forward, which includes: 1. EES commodity team is going to run the numbers for energy commodity for facilities and give them a proposal by end of next week. While facilities will not be part of the TX pilot, EES can arrange a financial deal for them w/ an option of going physical on 1/1/02. EES commodity team will also let the group know of the offer, in order to structure the REC deal. Depending upon the savings that EES can offer to Facilities, we will determine any "headroom" for REC purchases. Note: It is not necessary for Facilities to sign a commodity deal w/ EES in order for the "greening" of the building to go forward. The RECs can be purchased and retired irrespective of the commodity deal with EES. HOWEVER, it would be optimum for Facilities to sign on w/ EES and use the cost savings toward purchase of the RECs. Facilities stated intent to do the latter. 2. Michael Payne and Mike Curry are going to be working on determining a cost for the RECs. Michael initially projected $250,000 per year for the requisite number of RECs to retire commensurate w/ the demand of the building. This was at a cost of $8 per REC, which I believe is quite high. I think they'll go for a $1-4 dollar range, bringing the cost down to a max of $125,000. There's several ways to slice this end. We can provide some of the RECs from the EWC facility and buy other RECs from the market in order to minimize the cost impact of the REC purchases. 3. Next Thursday we will be able to get more of an exact figure on the premium cost for the RECs (ie how much over the cost savings will the RECs cost). We will then need to decide the following: a. Would Corp/EHS being will to pitch in to cover any additional cost for the RECs; b. Pitching the idea to Skilling for buyoff, and payment for the RECs; c. Possibly getting buyoff from the business units since this could change what they are currently paying for power. 4. We discussed all of the above with Peggy Mahoney, and she asked us to take a stab at a comprehensive press release announcing all of the bells and whistles on the new building and our being the 1st Fortune 500 company to go 100% green in our headquarters. Catherine McKalip Thompson is working on the first draft. We need to determine if we can get the "best" press for this commitment (i.e. stories in the WSJ and NY Times). We determined that the message would need to be targeted, specifying the terms of our commitment....i.e. Enron makes a commitment for 3 years to provide 100% green for its headquarters in Houston, making it the first Fortune 500 company to....... The goal is to have a final plan and decision by April 20th when Steve speaks to high level executives at a prelude to Earth Day NY on the topic of Energy Shock--Crisis or Opportunity: Building Economics and the Environment. Mike, we'll definitely need your continued support and assistance, particularly if this goes to Skilling. I'll keep you posted on the progress.

I look forward to our discussion. ----- Forwarded by Stacey Bolton/NA/Enron on 03/22/2001 10:05 AM ----- Stacey Bolton 03/16/2001 05:04 PM To: Scott Gahn/HOU/EES@EES, James M Wood/HOU/EES@EES, Greg Sharp/HOU/EES@EES, Richard Ring/HOU/EES@EES, Steve Woods/EPSC/HOU/ECT@ECT, Michael Terraso/OTS/Enron@ENRON, Michael Payne/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT, Mike Curry/Enron@EnronXGate cc: Steven J Kean/NA/Enron@Enron, Mark Palmer/Corp/Enron@ENRON, Peggy Mahoney/HOU/EES@EES, Janel Guerrero/Corp/Enron@Enron, Jeffrey Keeler/Corp/Enron@ENRON, Catherine McKalip-Thompson/Enron Communications@Enron Communications Subject: Greening the Enron Building Mtg You are invited to a meeting next Thursday (3/22) afternoon at 2:00 to discuss energy commodity and renewable energy credits for the Enron Building, Center and Stadium. There are a few efforts that are going on simultaneously and I thought it would be a good idea for all of us to meet and get on the same page. As many of you might know, Enron Wind (Michael Payne) and ENA (Mike Curry) have a great proposal to retire renewable energy credits from our Enron Wind facility to match the consumption of the building and stadium (details attached below). If this proposal goes forward, Enron would be the 1st Fortune 500 company to "go green" in its headquarters building. Couple this w/ our energy star award, and we have GREAT environmental messaging. We'd like to highlight this announcement on Earth Day (April 22nd). The facilities folks are interested in switching from Reliant to EES for actual commodity. It makes sense to work strategically together on win-win proposal that will not only make sense economically, but that we can use in our messaging. The focus of the meeting is to discuss the various proposals, and steps for moving forward. The meeting will be in EB50MO3 from 2:00-3:00. Please let me know if you or someone from your group can attend. Stacey Bolton Environmental Strategies Enron Corp 3-9916

Please define close? Also, what is the outstanding issue with Redwood? Please set up another meeting with a copy of the actual flows to Palo, sales prices, third party deals and an example of an invoice. I would like to walk through the deal. Thanks, Mike -----Original Message----- From: Bike, Anne Sent: Wednesday, October 03, 2001 7:25 AM To: Grigsby, Mike Subject: RE: Palo Alto historical loads I met with Settlements on Friday, and we were relatively close for the August invoice. The Redwood Gas is an outstanding issue for us and Palo Alto. When we finished on Friday we left a few action items, but my take on the meeting was that we have the deal in the system in a manner that will flow to the back office groups relatively smoothly. I will keep you posted.

I also need to meet with volume management to emphasize how the volumes should be allocated when the actuals arrive from the pipeline statements. I think that Daniel has the scheduling issues under control. Jason, Daniel, and I worked to get everything straight for September. October will not be much different. The only exception for October is that we do not have any third party gas coming from Enron, only BP. This actually makes life easier. As soon as I meet with the 2 back offices groups, I will report what I learned. Based on my meetings with settlements during July's process, I am confident that the deal is booked as well as the system can handle. However, checking and double checking the processes will not hurt. I will schedule something with you and Kim after my other meetings. Hopefully next week. Imbalances for Rockies and Citizens - I will let you know. We just finished cleaning up the SOCAL imbalances. We are clear through June as far as P/L is concerned. I think Matt Smith was working on July. We did have some old issues to clean up as the process was passed from Kim O. to Jane, but we have worked through the problems. Thanks for the note on the group. I am holding a learning lunch tomorrow. I want to make sure that our processes are as tight as possible, especially since bid-week is coming up. We have a good method for checking that all of the failed desk to desk deals are booked correctly, so it should go more smoothly. It will still be slow. Also, Randy Bhatia is working with EOL on resolving their logic issues. We are working towards a solution that will get the deals booked automatically. I will let you know the time line soon. I have a question. What does the "Wood" report mean ? See you. Anne -----Original Message----- From: Grigsby, Mike Sent: Tuesday, September 18, 2001 8:51 PM To: Bike, Anne Subject: RE: Palo Alto historical loads Disregard attachments. How does the system know not to pay Palo for the gas daily deal at malin? You did this because gas daily will not show up as risk and Kim puts together a manual invoice and will not pay them for the third party supply? I want this deal to flow in the event Kim decides to travel the world. Please set up another meeting to discuss this deal. i will never understand. is it just me? Also, i still need to clean up imbalance deals from July with citizens and in the rockies. By the way, you are doing a great job. It seems like your group is getting their books run early. Also, have you ever talked to your group about secrecy and the fact that we never tell anyone in the market about P&L and/or positions. Just a reminder. You may want to talk to them about confidentiality. You never know who has a roommate from college at El Paso or Dynegy. Right? -----Original Message----- From: Bike, Anne Sent: Tue 9/18/2001 3:56 PM To: Grigsby, Mike Cc: Subject: RE: Palo Alto historical loads Mike: Am I supposed to do something with the attachments ? They did not transfer through on the e-mail you forwarded. Kim has never given me any additional information regarding the loads. All we did on this deal recently was book the newest fixed price deal at Malin, and book the BP volumes (3rd party deals) that have been projected at Malin. On the BP gas: ..... We book a deal in which ENA purchases gas from Palo Alto at Gas Daily flat. Daniel Schedules the gas on the transport directly from BP. We enter the purchase in our system to show that you have 1,500 mmbtu/day at Malin that must be put on the transport to City Gate. We have not rebooked the origination. I am still using the estimated burns that were given to me at the inception of the deal. Let me know if this clears everything up.

NETWORK WORLD NEWSLETTER: DAVE KEARNS on NOVELL NETWARE 01/17/02 Today's focus: Novell launches Small Business Suite worldwide Dear Wincenty Kaminski, In this issue: * Novell Small Business Suite 6 now out for NetWare 6 * Links related to Novell NetWare * Featured reader resource _______________________________________________________________ PRODUCT INFO IN ONE CONVENIENT LOCATION! Heard about a new product launch? Curious to find out if the features and benefits of this new product will meet your critical business needs? Network World Fusion's Product Central section includes all the info you need to make informed decision about new products and also includes a product finder function. Check it out at http://nww1.com/go/ad216.html _______________________________________________________________ Today's focus: Novell launches Small Business Suite worldwide By Dave Kearns Novell's Small Business Suite 6, based on NetWare 6, is now available worldwide in multiple localized language versions. For companies with 50 users or fewer, SBS 6 may be the right network operating system to run the enterprise. Certainly there's enough included in the box to get you started. The suite includes: * 50 user licenses. * Two server licenses. * GroupWise 6. * ZENWorks for Desktops 3.2. * BorderManager Enterprise Edition 3.6. * Tobit FaxWare. * Network Associates VirusScan and NetShield. * FatPipe Internet Software. It is a different licensing scheme to the so-called "big" NetWare (which has gone to a named-user style of licensing) but it's assumed that 50 users and two servers are plenty for any small business. Besides what's in the box, though, Novell is offering special incentives coordinated with the announcement of worldwide availability. Many resellers, for example, are offering free basic installation of SBS 6. Get details from your local retailer, which you can find at http://www.novell.com/partnerlocator/ or you can buy it online (but without the free installation). SBS 6 includes the same NetWare 6 server software that the "big" NetWare includes, with the single exception of cluster services. While big NetWare has a two-server cluster license in the box, there is no clustering offered for SBS 6. Most small businesses wouldn't need the nonstop computing that clustering provides, or need to set up numerous servers to provide the service. If your enterprise does require nonstop service - perhaps because you offer a high volume Web service, for example - then SBS 6 is not for you. For everyone else with fewer than 50 users, SBS 6 offers most of the server-based applications they will need (one exception: database services), while Novell's management services make it easy to outsource support and maintenance. That makes SBS 6 the ideal choice for the smaller enterprise. Get all the details at http://www.novell.com/products/smallbiz/ for yourself or your customers. _______________________________________________________________ To contact Dave Kearns: Dave Kearns is a writer and consultant in Silicon Valley.

Greetings: Sorry to bother you with this, but please see notes below. I need to find out who I can contact to get information on our noncore accounts. I'm assuming that you might know whom that would be. Thanks a million. Hope all's well. Best, Jeff ----- Forwarded by Jeff Dasovich/NA/Enron on 03/16/2001 10:03 AM ----- James D Foster@EES 03/16/2001 08:49 AM To: Jeff Dasovich/Na/Enron@ENRON cc: Catherine Woods/DUB/EES@EES Subject: Re: More Inquiries From CA PUC re: Switching customers back to LDC Good Morning Jeff, Catherine is out of the office until Tuesday 3/20/01. Not wanting to keep you waiting for a reply, I thought it best to give you some feedback immediately. The great majority of CAD's customers in CA are core. CAD does not knowingly terminate any current customer prior to their expiration date. The reasons why CAD's customers are turned back to the utility are as follows: 1) Upon receiving renewal pricing from the CAD rep, the customer chooses to return to the utility. 2) Understanding that the current minimum margin per meter for our customers is approximately $300, those customers that have extremely low annual volumes are sent attrition letters and turned back to the LDC, at the end of their contract. We cannot competitively price this type of customer versus the utility, and extract enough margin to support them. Currently in the California markets (PG&E, SDG&E, & SOCAL) , there exists approximately 50 customers that have usages so low that given current market conditions, we will not choose to renew the contracts. The expiration dates for these are between 5/30/2001 and 2/28/2005. 3) The customer initiates a request for termination prior to the end of their contractual expiration date. As we are all aware, California customers, specifically those with either an index or NYMEX product, experienced a large swing in their pricing during the past few months. CAD has been inundated with customers requesting to be returned to their LDC. Although we seek to satisfy our customer to the best of our ability, returning these customers to the utility is the LAST thing we want to do!!!!!!! The steps we have taken to address this issue is to: a) work with customer service/credit to offer extended payment options to ease the effect of the increase. b) offer to restructure the customer's contract, and reprice the customer on a fixed price product; minimizing their risk going forward. c) explain to the customer, in more detail, the reasons why this has occurred, and how, going forward, the index/NYMEX pricing has eased. Should you have additional questions, please reply or call. -Jim From: Jeff Dasovich@ENRON on 03/15/2001 04:50 PM CST Sent by: Jeff Dasovich@ENRON To: Catherine Woods/DUB/EES@EES, Dennis Harris/DUB/EES@EES, James D Foster/DUB/EES@EES cc: Roger O Ponce/HOU/EES@EES, Catherine Woods/DUB/EES@EES, James D Steffes/NA/Enron@Enron, Richard Shapiro/NA/Enron@Enron, Karen Denne/Corp/Enron@ENRON, [email protected], Paul Kaufman/PDX/ECT@ECT, Harry Kingerski/NA/Enron@Enron, Peggy Mahoney/HOU/EES@EES, [email protected], [email protected], Leslie Lawner/NA/Enron@Enron, Rebecca W Cantrell/HOU/ECT@ECT, Phillip K Allen/HOU/ECT@ECT, Richard B Sanders/HOU/ECT@ECT, Shelley Corman/Enron@EnronXGate, Mike D Smith/HOU/EES@EES Subject: More Inquiries From CA PUC re: Switching customers back to LDC Greetings: Recall that about 3 weeks we got a call from a CA PUC staffer asking whether we'd switched a particular gas customer (or two) back to the LDC. We looked into it and discovered that we'd mistakenly switched the customer back due to a mix up about the fact that the customer had two active meters behind two different utilities. We informed the PUC staffer of the mix-up and explained that the situation would be resolved. The questions from the staffer arose because the CA PUC made a bad decision a couple of months ago. When gas prices ran up at the California border a lot of large ("noncore") customers attempted to switch back to the utility tariff in the hope of lowering gas costs. In response, SoCalGas filed with the Commission asking the PUC to prohibit customers from switching back. The Commission agreed and put the prohibition in place. The Commission is now concerned that if suppliers terminate their contracts with customers (for whatever reason), or choose not to renew the contracts when they expire, customers won't have the option of returning to LDC service. Today, I received a letter from the President of the Commission asking me to respond to the following: Have you "stopped selling and delivering natural gas to any non-core customers with whom you have an existing procurement contract, or...notified any of your non-core customers that you do not intend to renew an existing natural gas commodity procurement contract. If your company has stopped or intends to stop serving non-core customers, the CPUC also needs to know how many contracts you have terminated or expect to terminate the natural gas volumes involved the location of the non-core customer(s) the reason(s) your company intends or has already acted to terminate those contracts." There's a good chance that the letter from the President of the Commission is linked to the fact that we've recently switched our electricity customers back to utility service in California. Prior to deciding whether and how to respond to the Commissioner, I'm trying to get handle on whether we're re-sourcing any gas retail customers to the utility prior to expiration, choosing not to renew contracts once they've expired, etc. Catherine, or Jim Foster, can you help out? Thanks. Best, Jeff

mark: Any thoughts on whether we should give in with respect to the consequential damages issue? Carol ---------------------- Forwarded by Carol St Clair/HOU/ECT on 04/17/2000 06:16 PM --------------------------- David Minns@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT 04/17/2000 01:38 AM To: Carol St Clair@ECT cc: Paul Quilkey/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT, Paul Smith/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT Subject: Re: EnronOnline Carol, we have one remaining issue outstanding with United Energy on the ETA. They are still insisting on a exclusion of "consequential losses" from the indemnity given clause 4(a) of the ETA. Two questions Do we have a position on agreeing to exclude consquential losses from this clause? My own view is in this instance it is going to be somewhat "hit and miss" as what would be a consequential loss and what is not. That being said the general Enron position is to exclude consequential losses. In fact such a provision is already in the GTCs in respect of any Transaction. Hence if there was a Transaction consequentiallossess would then presumably be excluded in respect of a related breach of the ETA. Utilicorp is a substantial equity holder in United Energy. I understand they are trading through EnronOnline. Do we know what they have agreed? ---------------------- Forwarded by David Minns/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT on 04/17/2000 05:15 PM --------------------------- David Minns 04/12/2000 06:12 PM To: "Creek, Peggy" <[email protected]> @ ENRON cc: Paul Smith/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT, Connell Burke/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT Subject: Re: EnronOnline Peggy further my previous email. Two additional points; I believe it is best for us to move to replace the Deemed ISDA Agreement. This will provide a cleaner contractual basis for EnronOnline trades. We should be able to settle a ISDA Master Agreement quite swiftly using the existing commmercial terms in the Deemed ISDA. If you are concur with this course of action we will forward to you tomorrow a Schedule for review. In respect of Section 4(b) of the ETA we would be agreeable to add the following at its end: "unless such access, entry, omission or action arises from acts or omissions of Enron and its directors, officers, employees, agents or contractors.'' David Minns 04/11/2000 03:01 PM To: "Creek, Peggy" <[email protected]> @ ENRON cc: Paul Smith/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT Subject: Re: EnronOnline Peggy my apologies for not replying sooner but I was overseas. Let me respond to the points you raised. Deemed ISDA Agreement- We would be most happy to provide a letter that you could aknowledge that the Deemed ISDA Agreement is a master agreement for the purposes of the ETA. I would prefer not to make a formal amendment as this may exclude a subsequent Master Agreement from applying. Enron Australia Finance Pty Ltd. is the Enron counterparty for all Australian power trades. If that is your preference then access can be limited to only those products. You could write to us stating this is your position. However, we have found that counterparties have not found this necessary. Your EnronOnline Master User will set access levels for your individual traders. Many counterparties appoint a person from their Controls group (not a Trader) as their Master User. This gives them the flexibility to broaden/ reduce access themselves. Excluding "consequential loss" in this circumstance is quite broad but if we could work through some scenarios hopefully we could find some words to accomodate your concerns. When we last spoke you mentioned the concern here was the possibility that the password may be disclosed from other than a UE source ie Enron. I have talked this issue through with our systems people as to the nature of this exposure. What happens is that the password which is issued to a user is immediately changed after it is received from Enron. Hence the source of the password must be the relevant counterparty. Whether improper use is a result of the counterparty's negilence or some other cause such as an unauthorised use or disclosure by one of its personnel is not relevant. What is of concern that the loss would have resulted from or arose out of a Counterparty's "access to or utilisation of the Website". Perhaps you would give me a call so we may discuss any outstanding points.

Enron sends a letter to UE to be countersigned. This letter covers the following: * it is a variation to the ETA; * all Transactions entered through EnronOnline will be covered by the Deemed ISDA Master Agreement signed between UE and Enron Australia Finance and dated 8th Feb 1999; * Transactions at this stage will only be between UE and Enron Australia Finance; * amend clause 4(b) to exclude indemnification against consequential loss; * amend clause 4(b)(ii) of the ETA to remove the wording "whether or not Counterparty has authorized such access" and provide appropriate replacement wording that ensures UE is only liable where access is obtained through UE's negligence. Please let me know if Enron would agree to this. Regards Peggy

Answers to your quetions: Yes; no; maybe Just kidding.... Interconnects for Calp and Dayton handled the same...just add those meters to the sell tkts to CES and the buys are the delivery points. Don't path the actual contract in Unify...When we hold that capacity and EDI, we'll path in Unify.... We don't get the bills from TCO in January for that contract. Get em in February (when we hold the capacity). They are set up in Unify but we won't actually use....We are providing that service for those guys. Try your best for trueing up the transport tkts and the CALP and Dayton tkts in Sitara. Impact is on P and L for the desk daily and later on for the (O/A) operational analysis where the accountants compare what we estimated our costs and revenues for the desk were and what they actually came in at.......We know January will be messy... Go ahead and true up the PAL agreement to match physical flow...... BUY/SELLS with ENA and CES. We talked at the beginning of the month about this. Sales/buys to/from ENA on the CES reports and sales/buys to/from CES on the ENA facilitation by location reports should just be pahted as buy/sells. (hopefully should be done already......) I have a meeting from 3-4 today...other than that I'll be downstairs with y'all to answer any questions.... THANKS!!!!

Thanks for the help. FSS 63304 - we are not using. I'll ask John Hodge what this storage had been used for in the past. Clarification needed for the Dayton and Calp sell at the pool. How is the interconnect gas supply done... we had some on Calp with Virginia Power and Coral. In the past we have some on Dayton... don't think we have any in January yet. Does this through another monkey wrench into the works? We will probably have to run some report out of navigator to true-up transport tickets. There are a ton of cuts lately and Joann receives daily request from CES retail for volume changes. Not sure the best, efficient way to maintain these tickets daily. PAL for CES was physically flowed on January 1. Should we change the tickets to match physical flow??? I'm bummed about the storage ticket change again... but will redo the paths. This will be a couple hours of rework for me... not sure about Joann. You have lost me on the ENA to CES and CES to ENA buy sell tickets. Can't think of any examples yet.

The Sitara gods have to approve, bounce the server and then it will appear in Unify for you to path.... Deal # 149778 is the storage w/d ticket for both K# 63304 and K#51407. Deal # 151882 is the storage injection ticket for the same. The counterparty had to be changed back to CPR storage. You guys have to unpath and re-path that piece showing the purchase from CES for the storage w/d. Really SORRY about this!!! Counterparty could not be CES --- We can't path on stg. contract and out of inventory and buy from CES at the same time w/o the point not being balanced. Park and Lend contract #64031 and # 64041 are being set up by Chris in Sitara but we have to get the Sitara gods to set up PAL contracts as ENA agency deals for CES so he can't put the deals in the system just yet. They should be available tomorrow hopefully!!!! They are for 250,000 on the first and the 300,000 on the second of January. Path them accordingly depending on where that PAL gas went. In addition all deals that are ENA to CES or CES to ENA should be pathed as buy/sells. I think that is it for now. Let me know if anything else stops you from pathing, running tracking and balancing and finally from bridging back the first to Sitara. Let's set a GOAL to have the first totally pathed and tracked and balanced and bridged back and clean by close of business the 19th. YEAH BABY!!!! By the way, we really appreciate the monumental effort you three have made in meeting all logistical requirements of the old and new TCO business and keeping track of the volumes in Sitara, Unify and Navigator...We're are zeroing in on end of month balance tie outs between Navigator and Sitara for the 4 CES pools and the 2 ENA pools. We've kept a bunch of balls in the air for the last 4 weeks and to my knowledge haven't dropped one darn ball yet. Thanks.........

Inc. last week took the next step by filing for authorization to build and operate the Western Frontier project. The sponsor has in hand four negotiated-rate deals for long-term service covering roughly two-thirds of the 540,000 Dt/day of project design capacity, it told FERC in an Oct. 24 certificate application (CP02-11). Williams wants to have the $366 million project up and running by Nov. 1, 2003; it asked the commission to issue a final certificate by Dec. 11, 2002, so that it can commence construction by the following April. Williams unveiled initial plans for Western Frontier early last summer (IF, 9 July, 14) and held an open season in June and July. To carry gas from the Power River, Big Horn, Wind River and Green River basins- estimated to hold 173 Tcf of potential and recoverable reserves - the new 30-inch-diameter mainline would run 398 miles, starting at the Cheyenne Hub and ending at an interconnection with the system of affiliate Williams Gas Pipelines Central Inc. in Beaver County, Okla. Characterizing the Cheyenne Hub as "a liquid point of supply," Williams asserted that "presently, supply capability to the hub has outpaced transportation capacity away from the hub to market areas due to insufficient pipeline infrastructure." Along the way, the Western Frontier mainline would make another interconnection with Williams Central as well as with Northern Natural Gas Co., ANR Pipeline Co., Natural Gas Pipeline Co. of America and Panhandle Eastern Pipeline Co., "thus providing multiple avenues for gas produced in the central Rockies to be transported throughout the Mid-Continent using the existing pipeline grid." To "further enhance its supply options," the sponsor wants to build a 9.7-mile lateral from the mainline to the Wattenberg gas processing plant east of Denver to tap the Denver-Julesberg basin. Rounding out the project design are two new compressor stations, the 10,000-horsepower Chalk Bluff station to be constructed at the Cheyenne Hub and the 20,000-hp Denver station to be built in Adams County, Colo. Following the open season, Williams hammered out precedent agreements with Marathon Oil Co. (75,000 Dt/day), Williams Energy Marketing and Trading Co. (200,000 Dt/day), Utilicorp United Inc. (15,000 Dt/day) and Entergy Power Generation Corp. (75,000 Dt/day). The initial term for the deals is 10 years, except for Marathon which committed to a five-year term with an option to extend it an additional two years, said the application. "Other shippers have expressed serious interest for the remaining capacity on Western Frontier, and active negotiations are moving forward with these potential shippers," said the application, adding that Williams was "confident . . . that the remaining capacity will be committed in the upcoming months." With the addition of compression, the project could "facilitate relatively inexpensive expansions to accommodate future market growth," the sponsor told FERC. And that may well be necessary, it continued, pointing to "stagnant to declining supply" in the Mid-Continent basins coupled with "projected demand increases." As in many areas of the country, "much of the anticipated demand increase is attributed to installation and operation of . . . gas-fired electrical generation," it said. The 11,439 Mw of "active winter generating capacity" in the combined service areas of Western Frontier and Williams Central is expected to more than double by 2004, said Williams. The application seeks negotiated rate authority for the project operator, Western Frontier Pipeline Co. LLC, and approval of initial recourse rates. The maximum daily reservation rate under schedule FTS would be 35?/Dt for contract demand in Zone 1 and 79.4?/Dt in Zone 2. Under the negotiated deals reached with the four "anchor" shippers, Utilicorp and Entergy would pay a combined reservation and commodity rate of 25?/Dt at a 100% load factor for Zone 1 service to the Williams Central Hugoton station in Kansas, while WEM&T would pay a combined rate of 30?/Dt for Zone 2 transportation to the Williams Central system in Oklahoma and Marathon would pay 32?/Dt under the shorter contract for Zone 2 service to interconnects with ANR, Panhandle and Williams Central in Oklahoma. All transportation would originate at the Cheyenne Hub.

Revenue hit $9.32 billion, 6.4% ahead of last year's pro forma $8.76 billion. Analysts had been expecting $9.14 billion, following AOL's warning on September 25 that revenue would only grow 5-7%. >>FULL STORY: http://www.fool.com/m.asp?i=519461 ----------------------------------------------------------------- NEWS TO GO ----------------------------------------------------------------- Who says October is bad for stocks? Earnings releases from tech bellwethers Intel (Nasdaq: INTC) and IBM (NYSE: IBM) are expected to lead the markets higher today. Chip manufacturer Intel last night reported that third-quarter revenue dropped 25% and net income dropped 96%. However, earnings met Wall Street's estimates of $0.10 a share. IBM did Intel one better by beating the Streets expectations by a penny. Like Intel, IBM's third-quarter revenue and earnings were also down, but by just 6% and 19%, respectively. Earnings season is in full swing again. (Have you bought earnings seasons gifts for your loved ones yet? Time is running out!) Here's a rundown of some of the other major companies and how they fared: --International Paper (NYSE: IP) handily topped estimates of $0.05 per share, reporting earnings of $0.14. That reflects earnings for the third quarter of 2001 of $68 million, compared to $260 million a year ago. --Pfizer (NYSE: PFE) reported third-quarter earnings of $0.34 per share, a penny ahead of analyst estimates. The company expects double-digit revenue growth in 2002. --Ford (NYSE: F), the world's No. 2 automaker, lost as much as analysts were expecting. Not counting charges and gains, the company lost $0.28 per share, compared to a profit of $0.50 in the year-ago period. Revenue was down 9% over the past 12 months. --Citigroup (NYSE: C) met its lowered expectations, earning $0.63 per share, compared with a gain of $0.68 a year ago. The company expects its next quarter's earnings to grow by 15%. --Data storage company EMC (NYSE: EMC) reported its first loss in some 12 years, losing nearly a billion dollars in the third quarter, compared to a half-billion-dollar gain a year ago. ----------------------------------------------------------------- POST OF THE DAY ----------------------------------------------------------------- AMD - MORE HAMMER DETAILS "I know it sounds ridiculous, but here is the bind that Intel is in. If vendors see a strong consumer preference for Tualatin over the Willamette, the Pentium 4 will be seen as a failure. If the supply chain sees the Pentium 4 as a failure they won't rush--heck they won't even crawl--to support the socket 478 platform, in particular the SDRAM and DDR versions of Brookdale. Once Northwood is shipping in quantity, and Intel has enough 0.13 micron fab capacity, then Intel can afford to hype Tualatin. But that point is six months to a year away." >>FULL POST: http://www.fool.com/m.asp?i=519462 ================================================================= SPONSORED BY: ShareBuilder Buy stocks for just $3!
