Today, Enron hosted a conference call to give investors a current overview =
of the company. Here's an update of what we discussed during the call.

We told investors that we're doing everything we can to protect their inter=
ests and to regain their confidence. Our focus remains on our credit qualit=
y, balance sheet and liquidity, which are essential for our continued succe=
ss and expansion of our wholesale businesses.

It took more than a few weeks to get where we are today. Here's a snapshot =
of significant events that led to our current situation:

-- In hindsight, we definitely made some very bad investments in our non-co=
re businesses over the past several years. Those include investments in Azu=
rix, India and Brazil. They have performed far worse that we could have eve=
r imagined when we made these investments;

-- Because of these bad investments, we've become over-leveraged as a compa=
ny. The negative impact of those investments was exacerbated through the ex=
tensive use of debt capital both on and off our balance sheet;

-- We also entered into related party transactions that led to a loss of in=
vestor confidence, which has been very damaging;

-- We've been criticized for our lack of transparency and our hard-to-under=
stand financial and operating disclosures; and

-- On top of it all, we discovered errors in our financial statements, as d=
iscussed in our 8-K filing last week, that required a restatement of previo=
usly reported earnings.

We've taken a new look at our businesses and have separated them into three=
 areas: core businesses, non-core businesses, and businesses under review.

Core Businesses

Our core businesses remain strong and consistent sources of significant ear=
nings and cash flows for the company. They're our competitive advantage. Th=
ese include:

-- Natural gas pipeline businesses;

-- Gas and power businesses in North America and Europe;

-- Retail businesses in North America and Europe; and

-- Coal businesses in North America and Europe.

The events of the past few weeks have had a temporary negative impact on ou=
r projected fourth quarter profitability. It's too early to tell at this ti=
me what impact this might have on our operating results. We are considering=
 these actions now so that we can quickly return to normal business in 2002=
.

I also remain optimistic that the actions we've taken over the past couple =
of weeks have addressed our customer and counterparty credit and liquidity =
concerns. According to our business unit leaders, we have definitely seen i=
mprovement in our counterparty relationships.

Non-Core Businesses

Our non-core businesses include our global assets group and our broadband d=
ivision. We have invested more than $8 billion in these businesses, and the=
 return from them has been dismal.

We have an aggressive program in place to exit these businesses and expect =
that the sale of these businesses will generate billions of dollars in cash=
 that we can use to repay debt and reinvest in our core businesses. We alre=
ady have more than $800 million in assets contracted for sale this year. Th=
ey include CEG Rio, a gas LDC in Brazil; EcoElectrica, a power plant and LN=
G receiving terminal in Puerto Rico; and asset sales of offshore oil and ga=
s properties in India. The approximately $2.9 billion Portla

Anadarko does not currently operate any power plants.  Primarily E&P and
related marketing functions (trade gas/crude/ngl's).  I have heard of a
project that is beginning that is looking into the prospects of trading
electricity.  How soon that may occur is simply a guess.  Obviously
there is a substantial amount of hedging activity related to the
gas/crud/ngl's.  You can always check the web site to see if there are
other areas you may be interested in.  Hope all works out well.  Send me
you resume if you wish.  Give me a call after Thanksgiving and we can
try to meet at Mollys/Papas one afternoon.  Phone numbers:
832-636-7045 (w)
281-298-7860 (h)
Keep in touch, ajt.

I don't think it frees up any money.  The footnote is only indicating that
they
have $50 million in lease obligations for the upcoming year.  I may be missing
something but what this would potentially affect is the asset turnover and
leverage ratios since non-capitalized leases are off-balance sheet items and
so
don't get included in the Total Assets category.

Gang:
Quick question.  Does the lease-buy-back free up $50M of funds for 1987?
Mark, is that captured in the 1987 cash flows?  Don't think that should
change our recommendation, but ran across it in the case and was wondering
if we captured it.

Best,
Jeff

Valerie-

I just found out from Robert Eubank at Vintage that he was telling me the wrong thing for the gathering charges.  SLN 9205 has always had a .0981 gathering fee.  SLN 2883 gath. charges are as follows:  Sept. .0268, Oct .0628, Nov .0628.  I'll adjust the sitara tickets, but I'll have to weight average the gathering.  You'll need to fine tune it since you're dealing with the actual volumes from each wellhead point.

Thanks,

Susan

The PSEs in the Physical Path are not populated until the PSEs in the Market
Path are selected.  As promised in training, the PSE's in the Physical Path
will always be a short list derived from the Market Path, saving the person
who is entering the tag from wading through all unnecessary PSE codes, since
no PSE should ever show up in Physical Path who was not part of the
financial chain.

Good Afternoon,

I have attempted several times to make a test tag today, but the drop
down lists for the PSE's in the Physical path area have not been
populated.

I logged off and onto the system several times today to see if that
would help. It didn't.

Thanks for your reply.  We certainly can appreciate the importance of focus
and not being able to devote cycles to activities which are not core.  We'll
keep you up to date with our progress and perhaps the time will be right in
the future.

Frank-

Sorry it has taken me so long to get back to you.? Unfortunately,
business
is such that at this time we do not have the resources to allocate for
someone to focus on your worthy effort.? It really is interesting, but
we
just have our hands full on a variety of new initiatives that are much
bigger in scope.? Basically, just bad timing.

Best of luck to you and your team in your efforts to bring some
efficiency
to this market.? If there still is opportunity at the beginning of next
year, please contact me.? Maybe we will have better luck then.

   Jeff and Greg:

   Echoing Jason's message from last week, we enjoyed

   meeting you very much.? With this email I would like

   to follow up on comments you made regarding a possible

   investment that would allow FairAir to serve in a

   market-making role.

   As detailed in the attached presentation, we propose

   that Enron invest $3.5 million for 17% of our company

   as the lead investor in a $6 million round.? These funds

   would let us deploy $2 million toward market-making

   and grow our business over 12 months to the point

   where we are generating $250k in monthly profits.

   (Our projections are detailed in the attached

   spreadsheet.)

   FairAir is the industry's best hope for the creation of

   a true travel market down the road.? Now that our system

   is operational, we are poised for growth.? As we discussed,

   Northwest has verbally committed to expanding from seven

   trial markets to their full route system.? Additionally,

   in direct conversations with American and Continental,

   we received a strong indication that an investment from

   Enron would tip the balance in our favor.

   I will call you the morning of Monday, March 26th to

   follow up on this email.

   Regards,

   Frank

It's hard to disagree with the fact that 1) the utilities are the ones that
cut the deal they're living with and 2) they took all of the "stranded cost"
money that consumers paid them and invested it in other states and
countries.

But you can only buy for 10 cents and sell for 5 cents for so long before
creditors turn off the spigot.  Difficult to see how the spigot stays on with
the draft decision issued today.  (See story attached, below.)

With bankruptcy, the only one making any decisions is the judge, and while
some see benefits to that, seems to us that from a political, financial and
commercial perspective, bankruptcy creates many more problems than it solves.

That said, we're extremely sensitive to the politics of rate increases.  But
if the increases are subject to refund, then decision makers can buy
themselves some time by erring just slightly to the high side of a rate
increase, which could fend off the ratings agencies and provide additional
opportunity over the next 90 days or so to scrutinize the utilities claims
and come up with comprehensive solutions to the bigger problems.

Well, you got my two cents.  Sorry about that.

Best,
Jeff

Late afternoon 1/3/01 news:

USA: Calif utility ratings may fall too far on 7-15 pct hike.
By Jonathan Stempel

01/03/2001
Reuters English News Service
(C) Reuters Limited 2001.

NEW YORK, Jan 3 (Reuters) - Bankruptcy may loom and the credit ratings of the
two largest California electric utilities will likely fall too far if that
state's Public Utilities Commission awards them an interim rate hike of 7 to
15 percent, analysts said Wednesday.

In a draft decision on Wednesday, the CPUC proposed an immediate hike of 9
percent for residential customers of Pacific Gas & Electric Co. and Southern
California Edison, and hikes of seven to 15 percent for various business
customers.

The CPUC commission is expected to issue a final decision on Thursday.

"It forces the utilities and their creditors to be limbo dancers, and skilled
limbo dancers at that," said Shawn Burke, head of U.S. investment-grade
research at Barclays Capital.

PG&E and SCE had requested respective rate increases of 26 percent and 30
percent, a hike that would help them avoid imminent bankruptcy.

The utilities have also asked the regulators to remove a freeze on retail
rates imposed under California's 1996 law that deregulated the state's
electricity market.

On a day when most stocks roared ahead after the Federal Reserve announced
surprise interest rate cuts, investors beat down the stocks of Pacific G&E's
parent, San Francisco-based PG&E Corp. , and SoCal Edison's parent, Edison
International .

PG&E shares closed Wednesday on the New York Stock Exchange at $17, down
$2-9/16, or 13.1 percent, while Edison International shares closed at
$12-1/4, down $2-3/4, or 18.3 percent, on the Big Board.

Bond quotations were not immediately available for the utilities' bonds,
which in recent weeks have traded like junk.

Pacific G&E and SoCal Edison were banking on a big rate hike to allow them to
pass on some of their soaring wholesale power costs to consumers.

The utilities, which operate under a rate freeze, have accumulated more than
$8 billion in unrecovered costs since wholesale power prices started
skyrocketing last summer amid a worsening electricity shortage in the state.
They claim they are running out of money due

The attached  "Rough & Tumble" is an electronic clipping service targeted at California  politicos and policy wonks.  It carried the LA Times version of the Lockyer  comments a couple days ago.  Today, it has the NY Times article on Ken  Lay.  It's pretty clear that in the near-term, Enron and it's  leadership are at risk of being engulfed in a political firestorm  which bounces from coast to coast, gaining strength each step of the  way.

However, it  is the long-term challenge that draws my attention.  From my research  to date, I am left with the strong impression that the Enron's capacity  for acquiring, distilling and assessing business information is much  stronger than it's abilities with public policy information.

Ken Lay,  you and your team have shaped a innovative and entrepreneurial  company rooted in agile arbitrage of business knowledge.  Like  Goldman Sachs, it is hard for the "man on the street" to understand  precisely what Enron does.  However, because of your presence in  businesses that play out daily in homes, schools and small  businesses, Enron will be scrutinized in a way the Goldman couldn't imagine  in it's worst nightmares.

From my  perspective, the success of Enron's business model demands a sure  footing in both business and public policy.  Going  forward, these two areas of expertise need  become intertwined to assure the success of the highly  sophisticated, ethical, innovative and insightful global corporation  known as Enron.

I would like  to help you succeed with this challenge.  I look forward to our  discussions.

Companies pushed up price of power -- After months of investigation,  state regulators say they have evidence suggesting that power companies have  deliberately driven up wholesale electricity prices. Now they must decide  whether those companies have done anything illegal. State Attorney General Bill  Lockyer said Thursday he believes the evidence ``strongly suggests'' power  companies acted illegally to drive up prices. He has said that he would love to  put top energy executives in jail. Brandon  Bailey and Chris O'Brien in the San Jose  Mercury  -- 5/25/01

THE WEEK/Too Much of a Good Thing?

The specter of  "overinvestment" is haunting Wall Street like a bad
hangover on the morning after. A recent Business Week special report
entitled "Telecom Meltdown" describes the likely ripple effects--none of
them good--from too much capital chasing too few opportunities. A Barron's
piece on analyst Susan Kalla, the "Dr. Doom" of telecommunications, warns
investors away from the industry because of "too much capacity and
collapsing prices." And then there's any number of financial-page feature
articles, in newspapers running the gamut from the Sunday New York Times
to USA Today, with headlines borrowed from the obituary section.

The telecom overinvestment thesis implies that the capital markets badly
misjudged the size of the opportunity, and supplied crazed technologists
(we're being charitable) with too much money. The underlying premise is
that growth in demand for telecom services, which is driven by the growth
in network data traffic, will be much smaller than the companies, their
financiers, and their investors had originally anticipated. Kalla, for
example, expects annual growth in data traffic of 50% to 70% over the next
few years; industry bulls--us decidedly among them--see traffic doubling
every three to four months.

The bears' projections are based on historic growth rates--the
pre-Internet, pre-optical world. But the pace of technological change has
been staggering, both costs and prices are dropping precipitously, and
extrapolations based on previously-experienced patterns of demand will
prove well off the mark. As more and more enterprises adopt Internet-based
technologies that significantly lower the cost of moving data, the growth
in network traffic--and the demand for supporting services--will, as Epoch
Partners puts it, "spur previously undetectable demand //and// unleash
massive amounts of data."

On Wall Street, though, the pessimists are winning. Spurred on by the
well-publicized failures of Northpoint and Winstar, two
widely--followed-and hugely leveraged--new-era telecom providers,
investors have fled the whole new telecom sector. Prices stocks and bonds
alike are stuck in distressed territory.

Consider that an opportunity. Because at crunch times like now, market
dynamics cause the good to be lumped indiscriminately with the bad and the
ugly. When bond and stock mutual funds are hit with panic-mode
redemptions---as they have been for much of the past year or so--portfolio
managers don't have the luxury of drawing fine distinctions between, say,
flawed-business-plan CLECs on the one hand, and aggressive, well-managed
next generation IP carriers--say, Global Crossing--on the other. They sell
what they can, and prices fall across an entire sector. That's

Enron Paid Out 'Retention' Bonuses Before Bankruptcy Filing

December 6, 2001

By RICHARD A. OPPEL Jr. and KURT EICHENWALD

Just days before Enron (news/quote) filed for bankruptcy
and laid off 4,000 people, it paid out $55 million in
bonuses to about 500 employees, according to several people
who had dealings with the company.

Yesterday evening, an Enron spokesman confirmed the
bonuses, describing them as "retention incentives" for
crucial employees. Bankruptcy experts said that the
payments were almost certain to be closely scrutinized -
and probably challenged - by Enron's creditors.

Separately, the Labor Department said yesterday that it had
opened an investigation into how Enron managed its
employees' 401(k) retirement plans. Those accounts were
heavily invested in Enron shares, and company rules
prohibited many employees from diversifying their holdings.
The Labor Department said that employees had lost up to 90
percent of the value of their accounts.

"Enron's employees have gotten the short end of the stick
in the sudden collapse of this company," said Labor
Secretary Elaine L. Chao. Enron has said that a temporary
freeze that kept some employees from shifting retirement
investments was long planned and allowed another company to
take over the job of administering the plan.

Enron declined to say how much was paid out in bonuses, who
received the money or what the range of payments was.

Executives of companies entering bankruptcy defend such
payments as necessary if there is to be any hope of
reorganizing as a going concern. But they often prove to be
incendiary. For example, in 1990, when it was disclosed
that Drexel Burnham Lambert had paid key executives some
$250 million in bonuses before filing for bankruptcy,
creditors and the government reacted with outrage. In the
end, after court hearings on the issue, the Drexel estate
sued the employees to get the money back.

The payments by Enron "are substantially high, and that
means it probably does become an issue in the bankruptcy
case," said James Feder, a bankruptcy lawyer with Feder &
Mills, a law firm in Los Angeles. "The question might come
up as to whether there was fair consideration given for the
amount of these bonuses and whether they were reasonable
under the circumstances."

If creditors can convince the court that the employees were
overpaid - or that the payments were made to keep money out
of creditors' hands, a much more difficult argument to
prove - then the judge can void the payments and order the
money returned, said Lynn LoPucki, a law professor at the
University of California at Los Angeles.

To tamp down such disputes, a company typically will file a
request, as part of its bankruptcy filing, to make payments
to certain employees, and not proceed with the payments
until receiving a judge's approval, Mr. LoPucki said.

Yesterday, Mark Palmer, an Enron spokesman, defended the
payments as necessary "in order to protect and maintain the
value of the estate." Such payments "are done in every
bankruptcy," he said, adding that the payments were made to
employees "at all

Don't ever be sorry for venting to me.  I feel privileged that you trust me
that much as a friend and god knows I've cried to you a hundred times about
stuff.  You are so right about the fact that you had a way better
relationship with your Dad then most guys do.  I mean, look at my brother
and my Dad - Jesse doesn't even call him Dad.  Why in the world would your
Mom and Angela freak out on you for having human feelings?  I don't get it.
And besides all that, you were the one who used to help me and basically
write all that stuff for me so "YOU CAN DO IT!!"
Tootie is doing good.  She went in on Monday to find out if the tumor was
operable and found out that it is buried so deep in her brain that if they
even attempted to operate on it, it would probably paralyze her whole left
side.  So she goes in on Tuesday to Emanuel hospital for this high voltage
radiation treatment that's supposed to zap the shit out of the tumor.  Then
they'll check it in four months to see if it's shrunk.  If not, I guess they
will continue with the regular radiation treatments.  I talked to her on
Tuesday and she seems in really good spirits.  I'm looking forward to seeing
her on Thanksgiving.  What are you doing for Thanksgiving?  Are you going
home?
What are you doing for the Civil War game??  If you're not going to
Corvallis, do you want to watch it together somewhere?? I hope you don't
have to work this weekend.  We should have dinner too - Beaches!!!  I've
been craving their stuffed mushrooms and I haven't been there since the last
time you and I went.  Write me back....

Amanda has a break from Nov 3-8th  ( and I don't think she has classes on
Friday anyway).  Is that something the three of us can work with?
Alternatively, do you think the two of us could manage over Thanksgiving -
with amanda joining for the long weekend (fly down Thurs eve and back Mon).
I can't remember what day of the week charters begin and end. - is it set in
stone?   Plan B - we could met at the Greenbriar or DC for Thanksgiving.  I
understand from Amanda that Bill is not going anywhere until 2001.  Of course
that does make New Year's eve a possibility.  If all else fails, I did hear
from Greg this week and he wants to know if we are still sailing.   And I am
still looking for something to do over Christmas.

I sent Amanda & Bill an e-mail a couple of weeks ago and here is Bill's reply.
I sent him a fairly detailed note on how we usually schedule things and which
were the best times of year, etc.  I haven't heard anything from Amanda and
was
beginning to assume they were not really interested in a November trip.  Have
you heard anything firm from Virginia?  Bill's next-to-last paragraph tells me
that he's getting to know Amanda - but I don't think she'll leave him alone
for
the holiday.  The real question is whether her uncanny ability will extend to
his schedule, too.  If they still want to go we'd better make travel plans
soon
- that Thanksgiving Sunday is notoriously difficult to get seats.  If you'd
rather wait until Jan. or Feb. that's fine with me too.  Just let me know.

Hey Mark, nice to hear from you.  I am glad you enjoyed the wedding.  It went
by so fast for me but it seems that people had a good time.  Apart from a few
travel related glitches the honeymoon was also spectacular.  Tahiti is a true
paradise.

I am committed to the concept of sailing in the Carribean but my problem is
that my honeymoon has put me firmly in "vacation deficit" at the SEC.
Barring any emergency congressional action I will not have enough days
available by Tgiving to truly enjoy sailing in the Carribean.  Amanda has
told me how much fun it is and I want to do it but I may need to find another
time.  I'll check into it and let you guys know definitively very soon.  How
long to you go for?

Keep in mind though that I do not speak for Amanda.  She has an uncanny
ability to arrange her schedule so that she can participate in virtually
every vacation idea that people bring up.

I'll be in touch,  Bill.

While there is a wealth of information about the various
definition of ideal cut round brilliant diamonds, most consumers
have no idea what constitutes great cut for the fancy cut
diamonds such as pear, heart, oval, marquise, princess, emerald
or radiant.  There is no one industry standard for round let
alone fancy cuts, but there are some specific guidelines that we
use when we search for diamond.

Each fancy shape has its own set of depth percentage, table
percentage, crown height percentage and length to width ratio
that will increase the likelihood that the diamond will have
great brilliance, sparkle and beauty.

If you are shopping for a fancy cut diamond and are interested
what specifications define the top cut class for that shape,
give us a call and we will be happy to discuss this with you.
