I am not aware of any offsite guidance to use virtual mode for other than short duration troubleshooting. Turbine 9 was in virtual mode for approximately 40 hours. This will have the appearance of improperly manipulating availability so that it is higher than it should be. The owner would argue that the turbine should have been left faulted offline or the repair switch thrown. System Performance Group will see if we can assess how prevelent this was at Mill Run when there were no gaps in 10 minute data. It is possible that this virtual mode use was rare or of little practical effect. I am not going to mention this to anyone outside of Systems Performance Group & Joe Thorpe until we know how prevelent it was. Joe Thorpe 05/31/2002 06:09 AM To: Mark V Walker/EWC/Enron@ENRON cc: Subject: Turbine 9 Mark, I talked to the employee that preformed the late night operations, and he confirmed that he put the turbine in virtual mode on the night the turbine faulted. This was not corrected until the crews were instructed to put the turnine into repair mode to perform the repairs. This has been addressed and all personnel understand the repercussions. If there are any other questions please let me know.

Executive Summary AvailDocument is the deliverable given to Erik Ellis to support Business Development turbine sales efforts. I send it you to expedite coordination between analysts and the Controller Group. Garth Ripton asked for feedback on an earlier draft of this table and Eric Ellis asked for it to be updated on how existing counters worked and reviewed for how counters should work. The document AvailDocumentcolor retains the same green and red coding initiated by Garth in the earlier draft. The yellow coloring indicated changes or comments added by Mark Walker. Paul Landers and Kim Nguyen were very helpful in gathering data on the existing result of faults and errors and I coordinated with two Field Crews to ensure that the counters were compatible with Field Ops requirements. One important result is that several counters cause the maintenance time counter to be incremented even though they also would be used for repairs. If the rotary switch on the controller panel is religiously set to "maint" or "repair" before all maintenances or repairs then there will not be any excessively large number of maintenance hours. Field Operations will request further emphasis on using the rotary switch to ensure that availabilities are correct.

The proposed Applicable Construction Purchase Date (between 5 and 15 Business Days after the date of the notice).? By my count we don't have 5 BDs left in the year.? If you want to do by year end you will need a waiver. 2.????? The Specified Option Property - which should be described with sufficient specificity for the Developer to prepare a legally sufficient quitclaim deed or bill of sale and assignment pursuant to 7.1 of the DCMA, and the party owning the property (Developer or Developer Subsidiary or other).? For your purposes now, this should be fairly straightforward - we will be doing just a Bill of Sale and an assignment.? Serial numbers, location and any other information for positive identification of any equipment should suffice, and as to contract rights that is just a reference to the appropriate contract(s) and the rights to be assigned thereunder (if not all).? In future, this element will be driven by the type of Property you are taking out. 3.????? Designate the amount of Project Costs Attributable to the Specified Option Property.? Note that this works hand in hand with the voluntary prepayment section under the PA, Section 2.1G for Phase I.? I assume you're in LIBOR right now, so you need to give a minimum 3 B.D. notice of prepayment, and it is irrevocable. You might as well incorporate the notice of prepayment into the Purchase Option Exercise Notice.

I have not had an opportunity to discuss this with Jon (generally or about the waiver issue) or anyone else, so please go ahead and start on the notice with the knowledge that there may be further comment and a requirement for further information.? Why don't you produce one version that includes a request for a waiver of the 5 Business Day requirement and an "acknowledged and consented to" signature line for CSFB as Admin Agent.? As you suggested on the phone, it may be worthwhile to produce a form for this kind of notice.? Let's consider doing that after the first of the year so we can be sure to anticipate all that must be included. There may be other items we want to establish a form or precedent for too, depending on what features of the facility you see Enron using frequently. Let's speak about this early today, obviously. And we must be sure we have enough Business Days left in the year to pull this off - LIBOR Business Days would be the only problem I could imagine, I'm just unable to check that right now. Talk to you soon, I'll be in the office by 9 or 9:30.? And why did it take you so long to get active on this facility? Such a nice credit and you just let it sit there for days!

I just got off the phone with Brent. He was at the hospital getting ready to take his daughter home and stopped to talk further with the doctor. Brent mentioned that when he had appendicitis, his symptoms weren't the "standard" symptoms. This got the doctor to thinking so he told Brent to hold off while he checked something on the tests they had taken. Brent's daughter is now scheduled for surgery today to take out her appendix! Brent will not be in today, but will probably be in the office tomorrow for a few hours. -Becky ----- Forwarded by Becky Spencer/HOU/ECT on 04/25/2001 10:02 AM ----- Becky Spencer 04/25/2001 09:24 AM To: Swap Group cc: Taffy Milligan/HOU/ECT@ECT, Kaye Ellis/HOU/ECT@ECT, Suzanne Adams/HOU/ECT@ECT, Becky Spencer/HOU/ECT@ECT, Carolyn George/Corp/Enron@ENRON, Holly Keiser/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT, Keegan Farrell/NA/Enron@Enron, Nita Garcia/NA/Enron@Enron, Esmeralda Gonzalez/ENRON@enronXgate Subject: News-Brent's Daughter I talked with Brent this morning.

Hi Jaideep! My first suggestion is that you come to Houston as scheduled (and arranged with Wharton nearly 3 weeks ago). Alternatively, rely on your Tiger teammates to gather information necessary to respond to the project. Should circumstances lead you to decide not to come for this trip, please return the ticket issued to you. Should it make sense for you to visit Enron some time in the future, we can discuss arrangements at that time. Hope to see you soon! --Christie. ---------------------- Forwarded by Christie Patrick/HOU/ECT on 01/18/2001 01:22 AM --------------------------- "Jaideep Singh" <[email protected]> on 01/17/2001 08:58:51 PM To: <[email protected]> cc: Subject: Houston Trip Hello Christie, Thank you for organizing the Wharton trip to Enron. Unfortunately, the flight setup for tomorrow is way too early for me as I'll have to miss over 4 hours of classes, which I cannot afford to do. I tried changing the time with Continental and there latest flight leaves at 6PM - which does not work for me (smack in the middle of my 3 hour class) Thus the dilemma that I find myself in is the following: a. Try a different flight as I can make any flight after 7:30PM (however, I have no control over reservations/budget etc) b. As it is possible to delay travel upto 1 year, use this ticket to come some other time Sorry for this but I just saw the bookings today. Any suggestions? Thanks, Jaideep

By JOSEPH KAHN 03/04/2001 The New York Times Page 4, Column 6 c. 2001 New York Times Company WASHINGTON -- IN the forensic pursuit of what caused California's power failure, the Bush administration, the energy industry and many analysts have granted immunity to deregulation. Robert Shapiro, a managing director of Enron, the giant electricity marketer, says the California mess should in no way affect deregulation in other states, ''because California didn't really deregulate.'' Spencer Abraham, the new energy secretary, said Californians simply goofed, setting up a ''dysfunctional'' system. It is the way California deregulated, not deregulation itself, that should take the blame, they say. Yet some economists argue that California's troubles should inform the debate about whether -- not just how -- to deregulate. Among them is Alfred E. Kahn, the Cornell University economist who helped oversee the creation of free markets in the rail, trucking and airline industries. ''I am worried about the uniqueness of electricity markets,'' Mr. Kahn said. He is still studying whether the design flaws in California's market explain the whole problem. But he is sounding a note of skepticism. ''I've always been uncertain about eliminating vertical integration,'' he said, referring to the old ways of allowing a single, heavily regulated power company to produce, transmit and distribute electricity. ''It may be one industry in which it works reasonably well.'' Mr. Kahn's comments might sound a little heretical. When this former Carter administration official was pushing deregulation, it was still a novel and politically risky concept. Today, getting government out of most businesses is part of the Washington economic canon. Moreover, few people believe that California, the first state to overhaul its electricity sector from top to bottom, has proved a good laboratory. To satisfy interest groups, the markets were designed in an awkward way, which soured some deregulation experts on California before the first electron went on the auction block. Among the quirks: The state required utilities to buy nearly all their power on daily spot markets, rather than arranging long-term contracts that might have allowed them to hedge risk. Consumer prices were also fixed, making it impossible for utilities to pass on higher wholesale costs. Paul L. Joskow, an expert on electricity markets at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a former student of Mr. Kahn's, remains hopeful that the kinks can be ironed out. In New England and the the Middle Atlantic states, as well in as Britain, Chile and Argentina, all places that have restructured electricity markets, regulators have had to adjust market rules to correct flaws. They have found ways to check the tendency of power sellers to exploit infant markets and charge high prices, Mr. Joskow said. Regulators have also had to establish new markets that, through price signals, encourage power companies to build enough generating capacity so that they have reserves for peak hours. During peak hours, shortages and price spikes can substantially raise average prices. ''If they can do it in Britain, Chile and Argentina, then I think we can do it here,'' Mr. Joskow said. Still, he warns that proper regulation requires tough political choices. Allowing high prices to pass through to consumers is one. Making sure Nimbyism does not prevent the construction of power plants is another. ''The political system must rise to the task,'' Mr. Joskow said, or the ''old way might be the best we can do.'' Mr. Kahn knows a bit about the old way. In the mid-1970's, he headed the New York Public Service Commission, which oversaw electricity and other regulated industries. The drawbacks were legendary. Local utilities had an endemic tendency to overestimate demand to justify new power plants, for which consumers paid through steady rate increases. Nearly everyone assumed that competition would slash prices. But though free markets do a better job managing rail, phone and airline prices, they have yet to match regulators' ability to juggle the complexities of electricity, Mr. Kahn said. Regulators tended to apply heavy political pressure on utilities to keep prices as low as possible and profit margins steady but thin. The vertical integration of electricity monopolies may have also had advantages, Mr. Kahn said. Engineers coordinated power plants and transmission lines in ideal ways. Planners who saw the need for new plants helped find a place for them to be built. ''The players all depended on one another,'' he said. California has probably not derailed deregulation efforts. But it has made people wonder anew whether market forces work for kilowatts as they do for widgets. Photo: Alfred E. Kahn Copyright , 2000 Dow Jones & Company, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

The three men have been interviewed by Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, and the White House was expected to announce next week that it will send their names to the Senate for confirmation, The Washington Times reported yesterday, quoting unidentified sources. But two Bush administration sources, speaking on condition of anonymity, told The Associated Press that President Bush has not made a decision and that the nominations were not a certainty. The Times said Gordon England, 63, who retired last week as a vice president at General Dynamics, would be nominated as Navy secretary. England was responsible for the company's information systems and international programs. The newspaper also said James Roche, 61, a vice president at Northrop Grumman, was the pick to head the Air Force. Roche, a retired Navy captain, worked in the State Department during the Reagan administration and later was Democratic staff director for the Senate Armed Services Committee. The nominee for Army secretary was said to be Thomas White, 57, a retired Army general and an executive with Enron, a Houston-based energy company.

NEWS Enron's Chief Denies Role as Energy Villain / Critics regard Kenneth Lay as deregulation opportunist David Lazarus Chronicle Staff Writer 03/04/2001 The San Francisco Chronicle FINAL A1 (Copyright 2001) Kenneth Lay is one of the energy "pirates" accused by California's governor of fleecing consumers. As chairman of Enron Corp., the world's largest energy trader, Lay is arguably the biggest, baddest buccaneer of them all. But that's not how he wants to be seen. And he certainly doesn't like taking knocks from Gov. Gray Davis for having contributed to California's energy mess. "It's very unfair," Lay said, his brown eyes taking on a puppy- dog quality. "He's trying to vilify us. But we didn't make the rules in California. We had nothing to do with creating the problem." He gazed out from his plush, 50th-floor office. Houston's downtown skyscrapers jutted like sharp teeth against the overcast sky. "Everyone played by the rules," Lay said. "Now our reputations are being maligned." In a sense, he's right. The ultimate blame does rest with California policymakers for deregulating the state's electricity market in such a ham-fisted way that power giants like Enron cleaned up by exploiting loopholes in the system. But Enron was no innocent bystander during the restructuring process. "Enron and Ken Lay were one of the major players behind the push for deregulation in California," said Janee Briesemeister, senior policy analyst in the Austin office of Consumers Union. "A lot of what's happening in California was their idea." Those familiar with the state's deregulation efforts said Enron was especially eager to ensure that a newly created Power Exchange, where wholesale power would be bought and sold, was separate from the Independent System Operator, which would oversee the electricity grid. "This fragmented the wholesale market, making it harder to monitor," said John Rozsa, an aide to state Sen. Steve Peace, D-El Cajon, widely regarded as the godfather of California's bungled deregulation measures. "Enron isn't in the business of making markets work," Rozsa said. "They're in the business of making a buck." In an ironic twist, however, Enron now could play a pivotal role in helping the state remedy past errors and find its energy footing. The company has that much clout. SEEKING LAY'S BLESSING Thus, as the governor pushes ahead with a scheme to purchase the transmission lines of California's cash-strapped utilities, he didn't hesitate to call recently seeking Lay's personal blessing for the plan. This must have been a sweet moment for the man who just weeks earlier had been castigated by Davis in the governor's State of the State speech. "I told him we couldn't support it," Lay said, a hint of a smile playing across his lips. "It will lead to an even less efficient transmission grid and, longer term, it could make things worse." Why would Davis swallow his pride and court favor with Enron's big cheese? Simple: Davis will need the Bush administration's backing to make the power-line sale fly, and, many believe, there's no faster way to reach the new president than via the Houston office of his leading corporate patron. Lay, 58, and his company have donated more than $500,000 to Bush's various political campaigns in recent years, and he placed Enron's private jet at Bush's disposal during the presidential race. So great is Lay's influence with the president that some insist he is now serving effectively as shadow energy secretary, shaping U.S. energy policy as he sees fit. "There's a long history of Enron pulling the levers of its political relationships to get what it wants," said Craig McDonald, director of Texans for Public Justice, a watchdog group. "What Ken Lay thinks energy policy should be isn't very different from what George Bush and Dick Cheney think it should be." ANOTHER VIEWPOINT Lay, of course, sees things differently. At the mere mention of his close rapport with the president, his eyes glazed over and he mechanically recited the words he has repeated numerous times in recent months. "I have known the president and his family for many years," Lay said. "I've been a strong supporter of his. I believe in him and I believe in his policies." He insisted that reports of his having sway over Bush on energy matters are "grossly exaggerated." Still, it is striking that Bush's quick decision after taking office to limit federal assistance in solving California's energy woes virtually mirrored Lay's own thoughts on the situation. So, too, with the administration's hands-off approach to resolving the crisis. Whatever else, California's power woes have been very kind to Enron's bottom line. The company's revenues more than doubled to $101 billion last year. They haven't hurt Lay, either. According to company records, his pay package more than tripled last year to $18.3 million. Lay and other Enron officials steadfastly refuse to break out the company's California earnings from other worldwide business activities. But Lay conceded that Enron's profit from California energy deals last year was "not inconsequential." "We benefit from the volatility," he said. CAPTIVE MARKETPLACE That's putting it mildly. It could be said that California's energy mess was tailor-made for Enron, which is almost uniquely positioned to prosper from a captive marketplace in which electricity and natural gas prices are simultaneously soaring skyward. To understand why that is, one must look closely at Enron's complex business model. The company is much more than just a middleman in brokering energy deals. Lay, with a doctorate in economics and a background as a federal energy regulator, set about completely reinventing Enron in 1985 after taking over what was then an unexceptional natural-gas pipeline operator. As he saw it, the real action was not in distribution or generation of energy, but in transacting lightning-fast deals wherever electricity or gas is needed -- treating energy like a tradable commodity for the first time. Enron is now the leader in this fast-growing field, and uses that advantage to consolidate its position as the market-maker of choice for energy buyers and sellers throughout the country. It also exploits its size and trading sophistication to structure unusually creative deals. For example, if electricity prices are down but natural gas prices up, Enron might cut a deal to meet a utility's power needs in return for taking possession of the gas required to run the utility's plants. Enron could then turn around and sell that gas elsewhere, using part of the proceeds to purchase low-priced electricity from another provider, which it ships back to the original utility. "We do best in competitive markets," Lay said. "These are sustainable markets." TRADING FRENZY Enron's trading floors buzz all day long with frantic activity as mostly young, mostly male employees scan banks of flat-panel displays in search of the best deals. Rock music blares from speakers, giving the scene an almost frat-party atmosphere. The company's trading volume skyrocketed last year with the advent of an Internet-based bidding system, which logged 548,000 trades valued at $336 billion, making Enron by far the world's single biggest e-commerce entity. Kevin Presto, who oversees Enron's East Coast power trades, called up the California electricity market on his computer. With a few quick mouse clicks, he showed that Enron at that moment was buying power in the Golden State at $250 per megawatt hour and selling it at $275. "Some days we're at $250, some days $300 and some days $500," Presto said over the steady thump-thump of the trading floor's rock 'n' roll soundtrack. "There's truly a problem out there." This is a recurring theme among Enron officials: California's electricity market is broken and Enron would prefer it if things just settled down. As Lay himself put it, "The worst thing for us is a dysfunctional marketplace." In reality, California's dysfunctional marketplace means Enron isn't just making piles of money, it's seeing profits both coming and going. LOTS OF BUSINESS IN CALIFORNIA The company's energy services division, which handles the complete energy needs of large institutions, counts among its clients the University of California and California State school systems, Oakland's Clorox Co., and even the San Francisco Giants and Pac Bell Park. Enron purchases electricity on behalf of these clients from Pacific Gas and Electric Co., which by law must keep its rates frozen below current market values. At the same time, Enron sells power to PG&E at sky-high wholesale levels. In other words, Enron is buying back its own electricity from PG&E for just a fraction of the price it charges the utility. "These guys are the pariahs of the power system," said Nettie Hoge, executive director of The Utility Reform Network in San Francisco. "Why do we need middlemen? They don't do anything except mark up the cost." To be fair, energy marketers such as Enron can help stabilize an efficient marketplace by promoting increased competition between buyers and sellers. This has proven the case in Pennsylvania, where Enron actively trades among about 200 market participants. But in an inefficient market such as California, a company like Enron can easily exacerbate things by exploiting loopholes in the state's ill-conceived regulatory framework. Sylvester Turner, a Houston lawmaker who serves as vice chairman of the state committee that oversees Texas utilities, said he can't blame Enron and other power companies for pursuing profits in California. "California set up some bad rules, and these companies played by the rules California set up," he said. "At the end of the day, they will behave to enhance their bottom lines." But as Texas proceeds toward deregulation of its own electricity market next year, Turner said he has learned from California's experience -- and is taking steps to prevent Texas' power giants from shaking down local consumers. LESSONS FROM GOLDEN STATE He has written a bill intended to give the Texas Public Utility Commission more authority in cracking down on market abuses. The power companies are fighting the legislation as hard as they can. Not least among Turner's worries is that Texas will see what California officials believe happened in their state: A deliberate withholding of power by leading providers until surging demand had pushed prices higher. "I have that concern," he said. "I don't necessarily take these companies at their word." For his part, Lay insists that Enron has never deliberately manipulated electricity prices. "I don't know of any of that," he said. "It's so easy to conjure up conspiracy theories." As a sign of Enron's commitment to solving California's energy troubles, Lay said he supported Davis when the state began negotiating long-term power contracts on behalf of utilities. So how many contracts has Enron signed? Suddenly, the hurt, puppyish expression vanished from Lay's face, and a harder, more steely look glinted from his eyes. "None," he said. "We won't be signing until we're certain about recovering our costs." Consider this a shot across California's bow.

Enron boss says he's not to blame for profits in energy crisis 03/04/2001 Associated Press Newswires Copyright 2001. The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved. SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - Yes, his business has profited handsomely from California's energy crisis, but Enron Corp. Chairman Kenneth Lay says he shouldn't be a scapegoat in California's energy crisis. That hasn't swayed Gov. Gray Davis, who has skewered energy companies such as Houston-based Enron for selling expensive power to California. "Never again can we allow out-of-state profiteers to hold Californians hostage," Davis warned in his State of the State address. More recently, however, Davis called Lay to discuss negotiations as the state looks to buy power transmission lines from troubled utilities. "I told him we couldn't support it," Lay told the San Francisco Chronicle in an interview at his Houston office. "It will lead to an even less efficient transmission grid and, longer term, it could make things worse." Lay is not just any private-sector energy czar - Enron Corp. is the world's largest energy trader and Lay is a close friend of President George Bush. Lay and his corporation have donated more than $500,000 to Bush's various political campaigns in recent years and he offered Bush use of Enron's private jet during the presidential race. But Lay said it's economics, not politics, that matter in California's energy crisis. And he thinks it unfair that Davis has blamed out-of-state energy brokers for the protracted problems. "We didn't make the rules in California," Lay said. "We had nothing to do with creating the problem." The problem, many analysts agree, began with the state's deregulation of the power industry in 1996. Enron encouraged deregulation, and the state's ensuing power crisis has been lucrative for the corporation. Enron's stock jumped 86 percent in 2000 and its revenues more than doubled to $101 billion. Lay, 58, was compensated accordingly - he received nearly $16 million in stock and cash beyond his $1.3 million salary last year, compared with less than $4 million in bonuses in 1999. Lay refused to say how much Enron has made off California's crisis, though he conceded the profit was "not inconsequential." "We benefit from the volatility," said Lay, who took over Enron in 1985 and has helped turn the corporation into a major player in the trading of electricity as a commodity. But Lay rejected suggestions that Enron has manipulated prices upward by insisting California pay dearly for last-minute power that has helped keep the lights on in recent months. "I don't know of any of that," he said. "It's so easy to conjure up conspiracy theories." Copyright , 2000 Dow Jones & Company, Inc. All Rights Reserved. BUSINESS NET WORTH The Stadium Curse? / Some stocks swoon after arena deals Kathleen Pender 03/04/2001 The San Francisco Chronicle FINAL B1 (Copyright 2001) Is buying the name of a big-league stadium the kiss of death for a company, or does it only seem that way? From Network Associates Coliseum in Oakland to the unfinished CMGI Field outside Boston, the nation is dotted with sports venues named after companies whose stocks have been sacked. The Super Bowl champion Baltimore Ravens play in a stadium named after PSINet, whose stock has fallen 92 percent to $1.25 a share since it bought naming rights. The problem names are not all tech. The owners of the TWA Dome in St. Louis and Pro Player Stadium in Miami are looking for new corporate sponsors because their current ones are bankrupt. TWA is an airline. Pro Player was part of underwear-maker Fruit of the Loom. The home of the Anaheim Angels could be in the market for a new name if Edison International, parent of electric utility Southern California Edison, runs out of juice. Of course, these companies were not in trouble when they promised to pay tens or hundreds of millions of dollars to have their names plastered on a ballpark or arena. In fact, many were at their peak. Which begs the question: Should investors get worried when a company in which they own stock puts its name up among the floodlights? Brian Pears, head of equity trading with Wells Capital Management, wonders if companies are susceptible to some weird strain of the "Sports Illustrated curse." It seems as if any athlete who is pictured on the cover of SI magazine invariably loses his next game or pulls a groin muscle. Business celebrities suffer from a similar phenomenon: Amazon.com Chief Executive Officer Jeff Bezos was named Time magazine's 1999 person of the year just before his company's stock price tanked. Don Hinchey, who advises buyers and sellers in naming-rights deals, doesn't think the curse holds true in stadium and arena deals. "You can make a case that a company is doing well when it acquires a naming rights sponsorship, but you can't necessarily say it corresponds with a peak in its business," says Hinchey, director of creative services for the Bonham Group in Denver. TRACKING NAMING FIRMS To find out if Hinchey is right, I tracked the stock market performance of publicly held companies since they bought naming rights to 47 big-league sports venues in North America. I excluded facilities named after subsidiaries of larger companies, including Miller Park in Milwaukee (Miller Brewing is part of Philip Morris) and Pac Bell Park in San Francisco (Pacific Bell is owned by SBC Communications, which is putting its own name on an arena in San Antonio). I used the announcement date as a starting point because stadium naming deals are, after all, marketing endeavors. The announcement of a deal generates tons of publicity, which is considered positive, even if the publicity is negative and even if the stadium won't open for several years. Then I compared each company's stock market performance with the Standard & Poor's 500 index during the same period. The bottom line: 29 of the 47 companies that bought stadium or arena names are trading at a higher stock price today than when the deals were announced, according to data from FactSet Research Systems. (Two companies each bought two names and were counted twice.) But -- and this is a big but -- only 13 of them beat the S&P 500 during the period since their respective deals were announced. So buying a stadium name might not be a curse, but it's no guarantee the company will beat the market. WINNERS, LOSERS The companies that have done best since buying a name come from a wide variety of industries. The biggest winner is Qualcomm, a wireless telecommunications company. Although its stock is down 65 percent from its peak, it's still up 746 percent since it agreed to slap its name on a San Diego stadium. The next-biggest winners include Target (discount stores), Ericsson (telecom equipment), Coors (beer), Fleet Financial (banking), Pepsi (soft drinks) and Enron (energy). The biggest losers are TWA, PSINet (Internet service provider), CMGI (Internet incubator), Savvis Communications (telecom services) and Network Associates (network security software). Network Associates' stock peaked about three months after it bought naming rights to the Oakland Coliseum in September 1998. Since then, it has suffered a string of setbacks. After the Securities and Exchange Commission questioned its accounting practices, it restated its financial results for 1997 and 1998. Its CEO resigned in December. Network Associates is paying slightly more than $1 million per year for the coliseum name. It can get out of its 10-year deal after five years. The company "has been paying us," says Deena McClain, general counsel with the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Authority. "We haven't had any discussions with them" about changing the contract. Most naming-rights contracts have "out clauses that allow the parties to extricate themselves if they want, can or need to in the event of financial difficulties or if a team moves," says Hinchey. Although nobody likes to be associated with a loser, stadium owners may benefit if a troubled company cuts out of a deal early. That's because stadium name prices have skyrocketed since the mid- 1990s, when $1 million a year -- give or take -- was average. In 1999, FedEx agreed to pay $205 million over 27 years to be named home of the Washington Redskins. In 2000, CMGI agreed to pay $114 million over 15 years to have its name on the new home of the New England Patriots. It's questionable what kind of shape CMGI will be in when the stadium opens next year. The "10-gallon hat of naming rights deals," says Hinchey, is in Houston, where Reliant Energy will pay $300 million over 32 years to name the Astrodome and a new football stadium after itself. Some customers of Reliant's utility subsidiary were outraged when the deal was announced because the company was also raising electricity rates. Some shareholders also get perturbed when their company spends money on a stadium instead of a new plant or stock dividends. But Jim Grinstead, editor of Revenues from Sports Venues, says, "you have to look at the (stadium) purchase in light of total marketing budget. It sounds like big money, but frequently it's over 20 to 30 years. If you take out things the company might buy anyway, like tickets and luxury suites, it's small potatoes." WHAT A DEAL IS WORTH The main benefit of a stadium deal is the exposure a company gets when a game is broadcast on TV or radio or mentioned in print. "This is the biggest bang for your buck in terms of branding," says Jennifer Keavney, a Network Associates vice president who negotiated the stadium deal. She says the cost of her deal, about $1 million a year, "won't even buy you a Super Bowl ad. It will buy five commercials on a nationally televised football game, maybe." The Coliseum, perched beside Interstate 880, also acts like a giant billboard for the company, which frequently gets mentioned in traffic reports. Hinchey says most naming deals also include tickets and luxury boxes; on-site exposure through signage and kiosks; premium nights when the sponsor might offer samples at the park; and inclusion in programs, tickets and flyers. Most companies that strike stadium deals want to become a household name because they sell consumer products or services. But not always. 3Com sold nothing but corporate networking gear when it bought the name to Candlestick Park in San Francisco in 1995. "It was a good move for them," says Jim Grinstead, editor of Revenues from Sports Venues. "They got the employees they were looking for, the visibility they were looking for. At the time, they were a player in a crowded field, and they wanted to look like a fun place to work." Last April, 3Com extended its original 4-year contract for two more years. The biggest risk companies run is that the team that plays in their facility will be a loser. "Companies invest in an entity that can enhance their brand, their sales and hospitality efforts. Certainly that loses its luster if the team is not performing well," Hinchey says. "But corporations realize the team's success on the field fluctuates. It could be a champion one year, next year in the dumps." The same can be said about the corporate sponsors, which is something stadium owners -- be they taxpayers or business tycoons -- must realize when they sell a name.

Charts & News featuring Standard & Poor's Interest Rates US: Japan: Eurozone: UK: Switzerland: 1.75% 0.15% 3.25% 4.0% 1.25-2.25% [IMAGE] [IMAGE] USD Recoups Losses, But Gains Limited on Market Holiday January 21, 2:00 AM: EUR/$..0.8834 $/JPY..132.64 GBP/$..1.4354 $/CHF..1.6619 USD Recoups Losses, But Gains Limited on Market Holiday by Jes Black US Financial Markets closed for Market Holiday. The dollar recouped the majority of its losses against the majors in light trade on Monday after profit taking trading pushed the dollar to a one-week low of 88.66 cents against the euro and a 4-day low of 132.05 yen. But currency movements stabilized after Tokyo caught up with the dollar sell off in Friday's US session and traders in London took a breather due to decreased volume ahead of the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday in the U.S. There was little economic data from Europe today to move the markets. But the euro area's industrial production figures for November showed a larger than expected decline to -4.3% from -2.7% in October, the biggest y/y drop since July 93. It was the third consecutive decline and raises the question of whether the European Central Bank will lower rates oat its next meeting on February 7 given that inflation is now at their 2% target rate. Markets will also ponder the direction of US rates this week as Fed Chairman Greenspan is scheduled to speak before the Senate Budget Committee on Thursday. The much-publicized columnist, John Berry, wrote in Saturday's edition of the Washington Post that Greenspan "sounded more pessimistic than intended about the prospects for U.S. economic recovery, according to several Fed sources." Therefore, markets are now pricing in less than a 30% chance of a rate cut at the Jan 30 meeting, leaving the majority to believe rates will hold steady at 1.75%, a 40-year low. The dollar appreciated over 6% last year vs the euro and economists are now divided over whether a further rate cut would help the dollar. EUR/USD rose to a 1-week high of 88.66 in Tokyo trade, after breaking through resistance around 88.50. The high also marked the 200-day moving average and was not broken after plunging below that level following last Tuesday's 2-cent drop. The single currency then eased slightly in London trade to support at 88.36. The real test will be on Tuesday to see if it can add to Friday's gains after falling 2% vs USD and JPY last week. The EU's statement on Friday that Eurozone GDP for 2001 could have fallen to a level between -0.3% and 0.1% is likely to keep pressure on the euro and only a break back above 89.50 is seen improving the chances of the single currency after it hit a 3-week low of 87.91 last Thursday. Key support is seen at 87.50, which marks the 31.8% Fibonacci retracement of the move from 82.25 to 95.96. Resistance is seen at 88.50 followed by 89.10, which marks the 50% Fibonacci retracement of the same move. Yet, only a move back above 89.50 would give any hope of a near term recovery as temporary moves higher are not seen by the market as indicating strength given the euro's difficulty to remain above 90-cents. USD rose to a day's high of 132.66 yen after profit taking on Friday's US session and Monday's Tokyo eroded after the dollar held above 132.00 support. USD is still off of Friday's 1-week high of 133.03 but profit taking from recent gains has not changed sentiment over a weaker yen. USD/JPY support is seen at 132.0, 131.80 and 131.60. Resistance is eyed at 133.0 and 133.35. In Japan, the BoJ published the minutes of their November 29 meeting, showing members voted 8-1 to ease monetary policy. Moreover, a Japan MoF official urged debate on BoJ buying of foreign bonds as a way to weaken the yen. Given BoJ Governor Hayami's increasing concern with deflation, it is likely that the central bank will in the near future futher increase the money supply in some fashion, which would weaken the yen. Meanwhile, U.S. Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neill's remarked on Monday that he was not planning to discuss foreign exchange at his scheduled meetings with Japanese PM Koizumi and Financial Services Minister Yanagisawa later in the day. The yen's sharp fall in recent months has drawn increasing attention after last week's rumblings in SE Asia and China over a weak yen and Friday's complaints by the National Association of Manufacturers over a strong dollar making it difficult to compete with cheaper-priced Japanese goods. But O'Neill and the administration seem ready to tolerate a weaker yen if it means Japan has banks dump bad loans, accelerate reform and deregulate markets, like the US did. GBP/USD pared earlier gains after hitting a high of 1.4418 in Tokyo and fell to a low of 1.4353 in London trade. Support at 1.4330 is seen as critical. It marks the 50% Fibonacci retracement of the move from 1.4060 to 1.4606. A break of that level would call upon 1.43 on its way to 1.4267, the 61.8% retracement of the same move. Resistance is seen at 1.4440, 1.4480, 1.450 and 1.4550. Key support is at 1.4330. Today's data from the UK showed UK public sector net cash requirement (PSNCR) jumped to 9.44 billion pounds in December from 5.4 the previous month. The figure was the biggest monthly shortfall since March 96. This does not mean public finances are in bad shape because Tres Sec Gordon Brown has accumulated surpluses in the past year. Moreover, public sector net debt outstanding was just 318 pounds, or 31.6% of GDP, which is very low figure compared to most other industrialized countries. USD/CHF rose to a high of 1.6633 after it held above support at 1.6580 following a 1-1/4 centimes loss on Friday in the wake of EUR/USD gains. Technical weakness was also apparent after two attempts to break back through resistance at 1.6725 were thwarted. Support stands at 1.6590, 1.6550 and 1.6520. Upside capped at 1.6725, 1.68 and 1.69.

Here is a draft of the compliance filing regarding our operational control agreement with ECS. Please let me know your comments by C.O.B. tomorrow. At this point I'm not planning to file the agreement, just a report as requested by the Commission. I'm still working with ECS to finalize the agreement. Their attorney is checking with his resident experts to make sure ECS, by expressly giving TW Operational Control, does not somehow cross the line into retail wheeling. I do not expect the agreement to change significantly.

Rodrigo, We shall be very glad to meet you. If you can dedicate one day to meeting the members of the Research Group I could arrange a series of meetings with different units. What about Sep the 11th or Sep the 12th (Monday or Tuesday)? If you are free one evening we can have dinner together. Vince Rodrigo Lamas 08/24/2000 11:01 AM To: Vince J Kaminski/HOU/ECT@ECT cc: Subject: Introduction meeting : RAC London Quants and Houston Research Vince, I work for the Market Risk RAC London group. I review the quantitative issues arising from Enron Europe models. I am in this function given my background (PhD from Imperial College-London) and also due to my past experience as risk manager for a brazilian investment bank and Louis Dreyfus. My agenda includes the review of a number of deals (Wessex, TPL, Eastern, ...), as well as the review of the construction of european gas and power price curves and their respective volatility curves. Currently I am devoting most of my time to the analysis of the UK gas market, its respective price curve and term structure of volatility. Bjorn and David suggested it could be very productive if I had the chance to meet you and your team to discuss issues related to modelling prices and risk measurement tools. I will be in Houston from the 10th to 15th September. I wonder if you could book some time for me in your agenda and also ask some members of your team to do the same. Thanks, Rodrigo

First and foremost, I wanted to introduce Genesis Park which is a "new economy" investment company that's been recently founded here in Houston by Paul Hobby, Fred Lummis, Steve Gibson, Peter Shaper, Bruce Herzog and myself. Paul and I were hoping to have an opportunity to spend 30 minutes with you in the next few weeks to describe in person what we're all about. And to be clear, we're not looking for Enron money, we are raising money from private individuals. We've already met with Jay Fitzgerald and Steve Horn to establish the Enron/Genesis business relationship. I also wanted to get your views on Enron's approach to oil trading and whether the Vitol Group presented an opportunity. Frankly, I think Vitol is an excellent acquisition target although the success they've enjoyed in the last year or two will make it a bit more difficult. They have an unbelievable franchise, but they also have some fundamental weaknesses which could be exploited to Enron's benefit. I'm shooting in the dark here but hopefully it's worth some discussion. If you can free some time during this busy holiday period to meet, it would be greatly appreciated. Paul and I could come to your office, or possibly you could come to our "offices" over on Hermann Park. We're buying 17 acres on Hermann Park adjacent to the Park Lane Towers which we plan to develop into a technology park. For the time being, we are officing in a high tech shed on the property! Please let me know. Thanks/Neil.

We face two parallel tracks in the Senate in the coming weeks between now and the start of the congressional recess for one week on June 29th. In the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, we will be facing efforts by pro-price caps forces who will use the committee "bully pulpit" to pressure FERC into more action. This effort is led by incoming chairman Bingaman with support from Majority Leader Daschle. They are saying they will consider acting on the Feinstein-Smith price cap legislation unless FERC takes unspecified additional action by the end of this month. The new track in the Senate will be in the Governmental Affairs Committee chaired by Sen. Lieberman (D-CT). While this committee does not have the legislative jurisdiction over energy that the Energy Committee does in terms of moving legislation, the Governmental Affairs Committee has broad oversight and investigatory jurisdiction over all federal agencies, including FERC. New chairman Lieberman held his first press conference as chairman today and said addressing high energy prices would be a priority. In that vein, the committee is expected to hold a hearing on June 13 featuring some of the economists who wrote a letter in favor of price caps last month. We are checking with the Republican staff to make sure that the anti-price cap economists (the majority of the discipline, of course) will also testify. We also brief committee members and staff with our arguments against price caps and the latest publicly available market data. On June 20 the committee will hold a hearing on whether FERC has properly exercised its duties under the Federal Power Act to make sure that wholesale power rates are just and reasonable. We are going to meet with the committee majority staff, but we presently expect this hearing to have political witnesses (i.e., elected officials, possibly including Gov. Davis). We must keep in mind that Sen. Feinstein had earlier written to Chairman Lieberman asking for a hearing on the California energy situation, including relationships between FERC and those it regulates (citing the NY Times article involving Enron and Chairman Hebert). There is at present no indicationi that either hearing will address this matter. We are, as you might imagine, paying close attention to this situation. Over in the House, Energy and Commerce Chairman Tauzin has said he will write to FERC asking them to extend the April 26 price mitigation order to the entire west and to extend it to 24/7. He also asks FERC to see if it can implement "negawatts" demand reduction administratively. We are in the process of obtaining a copy of the letter, which has not yet been made public. Also in the House, we expect congressional committees to begin marking up portions of the President's energy legislation and related topics as the month unfolds.

Sent: Monday, October 29, 2001 2:52 PM To: Puthigai, Savita; Kitchen, Louise; Taylor, Mark E (Legal) Cc: Richter, Brad Subject: RE: GTC Change for removal of HPL language Savita, As we have discussed, when Enron sold HPL to AEP, Enron specifically agreed that all rights to the name "Houston Pipe Line Company" as of June 1,2001, were the sole property of AEP/HPL and that no Enron Entity would use that name. On or about the first of June, the EOL Long Product descriptions were modified to provide that notwithstanding that the GTC's for physical natural gas provided that all Enron transactions in Texas were to be deemed HPL transactions, that such language was overridden by the Long Product description. Notwithstanding this modification to the Long Product description, AEP is claiming that the continued use by EOL in EOL's GTC's violates the Purchase and Sale Agreement and impinges on its trademark "HPL". As we discussed last week, we have received a letter from AEP threatening a lawsuit if we do not immediately remove the references to HPL from the EOL GTC's. Based on what has been happening in the past several days, I completely concur that we should not require that any EOL Counterparty "re-accept" the physical natural gas GTC's in order to trade with ENRON. I advise that we either (i) do nothing and risk being sued by AEP, or (ii) that we forget about making any other "cleanup" changes requested by Stacy and merely notify the applicable Counterparties that as evidenced by the Long Product description for physical natural gas transactions, all such transactions will continue to be with Enron, not HPL, and that the EOL GTC will be modified as of [date] to eliminate any reference to HPL. I would suggest that this notification be done as innocuously as possible....such as on the remittance statements in/on our checks to these Counterparties or on our invoices. We should not ask any Counterparty to sign or return anything to reflect this, nor should we request any reacceptance of out EOL GTC . You have inquired as to the possibility of getting AEP to enter into an agreement with Enron to not change our online GTC at this time. Frankly, at the present time the relationship between Enron and AEP is quite antagonistic..... we have several matters pending which need to be resolved.......in order to reach some type of agreement with them regarding use of the HPL name we would need to "make it worth their while"..... and due to some of the positions Enron is currently taking, AEP would probably refuse to enter into any such side agreement with or without costly concessions . Thus, as I stated earlier, we should either "do nothing" and wait for the lawsuit....or go the "innocuous notice" route. I have spoken with Mark Taylor and he concurs that under the current circumstances, these are preferable routes to the POP-Up and reacceptance route which had been in the works for the past few months. Please fell free to call me with any questions or comments. If we decide to go the "notification route", I will promptly draft the exact language to be used.

Brian, Don't worry about comprimising our trading position because I think AEP via the HPL employees already have a general idea of what we have been doing with storage; plus they will need to know as of close anyway.

Economics are favorable to keep injecting. I estimate that injections will average around 1TBTU per week through May 31, 2001 which would result in another 3+ TBTU beibng injected. At the current pricing level this means that AEP would owe Enron somewhere around $98 million. Is this something Accounting should be working into the AEP settlement to pay Enron on June 1, 2001? Should AEP be notified of the volume and approximate value. Is there anything that needs to be done contractually other than the original agrrement to facilitate this transaction? I just wanted to make sure everyone is aware! Please let me know your thoughts.

[IMAGE] [IMAGE] [IMAGE] Dear Amazon Customer, This month Amazon.com turns 5. As we hit this milestone, we're reflecting on all you've done to help us make our store a great place to shop. Without your help and support, we simply wouldn't be where we are today. So we wanted to do something fun to thank you. That's why we created Five Years of Favorites, a special area of Amazon.com that combines a bit of nostalgia with customer wit and wisdom. We've also sprinkled extra savings onto our everyday low prices. [IMAGE] [IMAGE] [IMAGE] Many, many thanks for shopping with us. We hope you'll drop in on the party. It runs from 7/14 to 7/24. Sincerely, [IMAGE] David Risher Senior VP and Avid Amazon.com customer since January 1996 PS Plus, we've culled the best--and worst--of five years of our two million-plus customer reviews, showcasing the products you love, and the ones you love to loathe. With your help, we expose the secret shame of the Ant Farm . And we pose weighty philosophical questions such as, Babe, Pig in the City worthy sequel or, as one customer puts it, "Babe, pig of death and destruction?"

Prices closed near the session low on reported commercial selling, after briefly probing above $68.00 early in the session. Poor boxed beef movement today offset ideas that cash cattle prices might trade steady to firmer this week. There were early reports from Nebraska that quoted dressed beef prices 50 cents higher than last week. December lean hogs closed up $0.10 today at $50.47. A firmer cash hog market today limited selling interest, as did lighter hog marketings the past couple days. Still, the bulls are on the ropes in this market. GRAINS: December corn futures closed 2 3/4 cents lower at $2.05 today. Prices closed at the session low. Weekly export sales came in about as expected and the market continues to feel pressure from harvest and uninspired demand. There was no follow-through buying interest today, so a bullish key reversal was not confirmed. November soybeans closed 3 1/4 cents lower at $4.30 3/4 today. Despite very solid weekly export sales figures for soybeans, meal and oil, reported early this morning, the markets could not rally on that news. This is an ominous sign for the bulls for at least the near term. There was no follow-through buying today, so a bullish key reversal up was not confirmed. December Chicago SRW wheat closed off 1 3/4 cents at $2.83 today. Prices pushed to a fresh seven-week high today, but could not hold gains and closed near the session low. Still, bulls should not be too displeased by today's price action. The recent rally in Dec. wheat raises the possibility of a double-bottom reversal pattern developing on the daily bar chart. This morning's weekly export sales figures came in about as expected and were not market-moving. First resistance is now seen at $2.88. First support lies at the $2.80 area. SOFTS: March N.Y. sugar closed 7 points lower at 6.56 cents today. Prices took a "rest day" today after pushing to a fresh two-week high Wednesday. The bulls have seen a nice mini run since the lows scored a little over a week ago. But overall, bears still have a technical edge. December N.Y. coffee closed 85 points higher at 45.60 cents today. Prices pushed to a high of 47.50 before backing off and closing near the session low. This week's activity in coffee is a bit encouraging to the bulls. However, it's too early to make anything significant out of it. Any increase in volatility at these low price levels will favor the bullish camp. December N.Y. cocoa closed $8 lower today, at $1,058. Prices took a "rest day" today after scoring a bullish key reversal up this week. Bulls are gaining momentum. If they can push prices back above the $1,086 level and fill the downside gap created on the daily bar chart a couple weeks ago, then bulls will be right back in the ball game. December cotton closed 35 points lower at 31.18 cents in quiet trading again today. Solid USDA weekly export sales for cotton failed to lift the market. But I do look for some more short covering in the coming sessions, but make no mistake: bears are in command. November orange juice on Wednesday afternoon closed at 85.85. That's off 25 points from the Tuesday evening close. Prices are due for some corrective consolidation after the recent big gains. Bulls have the edge. Last week's USDA Florida orange figure was termed bullish. METALS: December COMEX gold futures closed off $4.20 today at $279.80 an ounce. More technical damage was done today as prices fell below the $280 level. Bears are poised to push prices on down to the $275 area in the near term. December silver futures closed $0.107 lower at $4.263 an ounce today. Prices hit a fresh five-week low today as prices fell down into the upside gap area on the daily bar chart that was created in early September. December N.Y. copper closed 70 points lower at 63.20 cents. Prices today dropped to a fresh contract low of 63.00 cents. Bulls' hopes of some "basing" activity the past couple weeks have been dashed. Prices need to push above 66 cents and see a couple closes above that level before the bulls get much confidence. Next support is seen at 63.00 cents--the contract low. ENERGIES: December crude closed off $0.50 at $21.60 today. Prices dropped to another fresh four-week low today. A big bear flag continues to form on the daily chart. If there is a downside breakout from this big bear flag, which may be occurring right now, the measuring implications point to possible losses to well below $20.00 per barrel. December heating oil closed off 128 points, at .6162 today. Prices today matched the September low and are poised for more losses. It looks like a big bear flag is forming on the daily bar chart, and this week may have been the downside breakout from that pattern. December unleaded gasoline closed 126 points lower at .5737 today. Prices scored another fresh yearly low today. It looks like prices have broken out on the downside of a bearish pennant pattern on the daily bar chart this week. December natural gas closed $0.117 higher at $2.82 today. The nat gas market is acting well, given the liquid energies continue to deteriorate. Prices pushed to a fresh five-week high Wednesday. Bulls have gained a bit of momentum, but bears have the overall advantage. STOCKS, FINANCIALS, CURRENCIES: The December Euro currency closed 13 points higher today at .9023. Bears have gained confidence recently. Prices are presently trading below a five-week-old downtrend line drawn off the September and October highs. The December Japanese yen closed up 7points at .8285 today. Prices pushed to a fresh two-month low just Tuesday. Bears have control of the yen. A steep four- week-old downtrend line is in place on the daily bar chart. Next support is seen at 8236 level and then the .8200 level. First resistance is seen at the .8350 area. The December Swiss franc closed 17 points higher at .6118 today. While a steep four-week-old downtrend line is in place on the daily bar chart, a longer-term 3.5-month-old uptrend line on the daily bar chart remains intact. The stage is set for bulls and bears to do battle this week. The December Canadian dollar closed 35 points lower at .6328 today. Significant technical damage occurred in this currency today, as prices dropped sharply and are right back down close to the April and September lows. The December British pound closed 14 points lower at 1.4410. It was another quiet day today. The recent collapse in volatility makes me suspect a bigger price move is on the horizon. Bears have the slight edge. Technical damage has been inflicted recently. The September U.S. dollar index closed 4 points lower at 114.74 today. Bulls have made progress recently, but need to keep the pressure on the bears. It appears a head-and- shoulders bottom reversal pattern has formed on the daily bar chart. December U.S. T-bonds closed 3/32 higher at 106 26/32. Bulls are having a very good week, so far, and they needed it. Bulls can correctly argue this market was due for some corrective consolidation. The charts are still favoring the bulls. However, very strong resistance located just above the 107 even area stopped another bull run in bonds recently. December S&P 500 futures closed slightly lower today. Today there was follow-through selling and a bearish key reversal down was confirmed on the daily bar chart. Friday's price action, heading into the weekend, will be extra important for the index. The growing anthrax scare has spooked traders this week.

attached is a copy of my california testimony. The proceeding was somewhat productive, but turned into a witch hunt at a couple of points. Our view on this is: the problem is fairly straightforward (demand increases and new supplies are inhibited so prices go up and shortages ensue ... sound familiar?) and the solutions are straightforward (site the power plants suppliers are begging to build, let the utilities hedge outside the exchange, and finish the job of opening the interstate grid so power can get from where it is to where it is needed). What it comes down to at this point is FERC is the only entity with the authority to start fixing this problem now: Congress isn't going to get anything done this year and the California legislature is (thankfully) out of session now. Our political leaders need to give FERC the room they need to act. Good luck on your speech and give me a call sometime.

Cara, We store the region from the path cuts in the database as a single EnPower Region. That means that we can only map California to one of R10, R11, and R12. Are you intending the regions within Path Confirmation to represent a group of EnPower Regions? If so, we will need to make a database change to store those groupings. I expect that the database change would take a long time because it will involve a Global database change. Thanks, Will -----Original Message----- From: Semperger, Cara Sent: Monday, August 13, 2001 4:11 PM To: Bentley, Corry; Poston, David; Smith, Will; Venkataswami, Vishwanatha Subject: More on the Region Choices for Path Cut Good Afternoon, I do want the regions to understand Enpower Regions, but at the same time not be so specific to the user. Here is the breakdown that I would want: California = R10, R11, and R12 Northwest = R9 Enpower calls it MidColumbia, but many more delivery points than Just Mid Columbia are contained within it, and I don't want to list them all in the region choice or confuse the useres further by them looking for something in the northwest that is not MidColumbia. WSCC-S=R7 Rockies = R7A WSCC-N=R8 Please also see my notes below on the existing system. I am happy to provide any further explanation you would like. Cara -----Original Message----- From: Smith, Will Sent: Monday, August 13, 2001 1:53 PM To: Semperger, Cara Subject: RE: Testing PSW and Path confirmation Cara, It appears that some clarification on the Regions is necessary. Vish has implemented the cuts to show regions as defined by the Regions table in EnPower. This is the same table that is used in many of our reports. Should the regions that you are speaking of be separate from EnPower's list of regions? Vish tells me that "California" equates to all of NP-15, SP-15, ZP-26. Also he is unable to resolve "Northwest". Should we not resolve your list of regions to the EnPower list? Also, as an aside, I took a look at the West Discussion - Schedule Information in Notes and noticed that when looking at cuts the tree hierarchy was as follows Hour Ahead / Real-Time Region? (e.g. Montana, MARKETER, WSCC, NW, SW, FED Utility) This is why I want preset regions, right now they are user defined and a mess Date Path Cuts I think the best way is to have the sort selection as it is in the new system, by date primarily, and then the nifty sort tool you all have written Is the second item in the tree related to the region selection for path cuts? Yes Thanks, Will -----Original Message----- From: Semperger, Cara Sent: Monday, August 13, 2001 1:16 PM To: Bentley, Corry; Poston, David; Smith, Will; Venkataswami, Vishwanatha Subject: Testing PSW and Path confirmation Good Afternoon, Here are my findings for the latest Release of the PSW and Path Conf. I am re-running the date of June 22, as I see no data in the path confirmation for that date. PreSchedule Workspace: I tried to open the sheet "PV_JUNE22_LIMITED" and got this error "Access violation at address 00000016. Read of address 00000016. I could not save, close or do anything, I had to end task to get out of the sheet and the PSW. I had run the COB sheet prior to opening the PV sheet, and had closed the COB sheet. When I re-opened the "PV_JUNE22_LIMITED" sheet, it was completely blank. This kind of data loss would be catastrophic in production if we were not using an outside Excel spreadsheet. Error checking The workspace seemed to get stuck on one deal not being a market deal (#657854.1) that was put in the market deal number area. It is an EPMICALPOOL deal that is a buy/resale. This error is understandable in the rows where the deal is present, but the routing error check mentioned it in rows 69-192, where the deal number was not present. Can the sheet be made to understand that a buy/resale should be tolerated in either the Supply or Market deal number cell? I also got just "Error:" with no explanation of what the error was for rows 3-6, 9-11 and 21-28. Rows 3-6 and 9-11, has a NW delivered upstream and Portland General System Downstream, both identified as Portland General System on the sheet. Rows 21-28 I see no errors apparent. My second PV sheet gave me routing error "Error:" with no explanation on rows 2-45. The only thing I see is that I have chosen R instead of X for the export. I changed all rows to X, and still got the routing error with no explanation. I have enclosed that sheet for your inspection. Could it be that the system already detects routes? << File: PV_JUNE22_LIMITED.psc >> Path Confirmation: The Transmission information seems to be populating correctly, all trans looks good and has the -E- on each side. I can put my POR/POD info in the Oasis cell, and all the info looks great! The Global ID Sorting is working just right. The Tag Sorting is also working just right. The expanded view is showing the entire path regardless of length. I like the POR and POD sort capability, this will be very helpful. In the Expanded View, even though I know the counterparty, this view sometimes shows me a blank drop down box where the counterparty should be. Allegheney did not show a counterparty name here. This actually looks like it might be specific to Allegheney. In the line view My counterparty on the sheet CPS shows Constellation Power Source, Inc. but in the expanded view I see City Public Service of San Antonio. They both have CPS as their short name, but the second counterparty is an East Desk Counterparty. Corry, Can you get their short name changed to something else you like? Path Cut: The regions are not what I have repeatedly asked for. I only want to see the following: California Northwest WSCC-N WSCC-S Rockies. If I need to provide more explanation on this, I am happy to do so. The current breakout is too detailed as well as incomplete, and will be cumbersome for real-time and settlements to use. These regions will correlate with the same region choices in the Discussion Dbase that I am working with Poston to get done. Closing path cut seems to take quite a long time even when no saving is done, just over a minute. Users will percieve this as something broken. I think that Bill Williams III and the real time group here will have more to add on path cut, I will hand this off to them very soon. Overall Findings: I feel that with this release we are very close to what we need for production. We will definately have to get a handle on the data loss issue, but the functionality looks really good. My goal is to release this and the discussion Dbase at the same time so that we are able to tell settlements that from "X" date previous the records are in lotus, and from "X" date forward they are in the new system.

SF Chron, 7/4: Federal price limits backfire Sac Bee, 7/3: Out-of-state generators pull plug over uncertainty on price controls LA Times, 7/3: Power sales halted by new pricing curbs ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------------------------- Federal price limits backfire Some generators withhold power rather than abide by rate caps David Lazarus, Chronicle Staff Writer Wednesday, July 4, 2001 ,2001 San Francisco Chronicle URL: http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/chronicle/archive/2001/07/04/M N186091.DTL Officials in California and Nevada, after months of lobbying for federal regulators to cap Western power prices, warned yesterday that the newly imposed limits have had the unintended consequence of increasing a threat of blackouts in the two states. The warnings were issued as California came within minutes of rolling blackouts yesterday afternoon, and one day after the first-ever rolling blackouts in Las Vegas forced energy-hungry casinos to shut off fountains and reduce air conditioning. The two states are asking the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to take a closer look at the so-called price mitigation plan and come up with revisions that would deter power companies from withholding electricity during shortages. "We need some clarity to this order," said Oscar Hidalgo, a spokesman for the California Department of Water Resources, which is spending billions of dollars to keep the state's lights on. "Generators need to be held accountable," he said. The crux of the problem is that price limits kick in during shortages, yet power companies say these caps force them to sell power at below-market rates during periods of high demand. Some companies have responded by holding back power rather than face the expense of shipping electricity from state to state. Each mile that electricity must be transmitted adds to the overall cost. "No one's going to pay for transmission if the cost is near the caps," said Gary Ackerman, executive director of the Western Power Trading Forum, an energy-industry association in Menlo Park. Ackerman said several companies in his organization decided that there was no economic advantage to offering power in regional markets when price controls are in effect. "This means individual regions like California or Las Vegas could end up not having enough," Ackerman said. "It increases the threat of blackouts." BLACKOUT ALERT CANCELED California authorities issued a blackout alert at 1:45 p.m. yesterday when power reserves dipped to dangerously low levels. They canceled the alert about an hour later, after finding additional supplies. "Everyone in the West is fighting for megawatts," said Stephanie McCorkle, a spokeswoman for the California Independent System Operator, which oversees the state's power network. The Golden State's latest brush with lights-out conditions came a day after Nevada experienced its own rolling blackouts for the first time, prompting heavy power users such as the MGM Grand and Caesars Palace to dim their lights. Don Soderberg, chairman of the Nevada Public Utilities Commission, said that the sudden power emergency took state authorities by surprise and that they are investigating to see what role the federal price limits may have had in exacerbating Monday's shortage. "We're looking very closely at this," he said. "There seems to be a potential for unintended consequences." Specifically, Soderberg said Nevada is focusing on operators of older, less- efficient plants who would find profit margins shrinking, if not vanishing, under capped prices. "We're going to see how the caps might have played into this," he said. The federal ceiling in 10 Western states, excluding California, is about $92 per megawatt hour. In California, a 10 percent surcharge is added because of the state's credit risk, bringing the price to just over $101. Ackerman at the Western Power Trading Forum said regional price controls have extended California's power crisis to neighboring states. "California sneezed and the rest of the region caught the virus," he said. 'LAWYERS LOOKING FOR LOOPHOLES' California and Nevada officials, however, said that they still have faith that price limits can stabilize Western electricity markets but that federal regulators may have to tweak the system so that power companies cannot withhold output. "The generators have banks of lawyers looking for loopholes (in the plan)," said Hidalgo at the Department of Water Resources. Unfortunately, it may take some time for the regulators to revisit an issue that they took up only with the greatest reluctance. For months, federal regulators refused to impose price controls, preferring instead to let supply and demand determine costs. Hidalgo said that when it appeared that power companies were throttling back on output Monday, California officials immediately dialed the hot line number provided by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission in case of emergencies. "No one answered," he said. "They were closed." State officials tried again yesterday, and this time were told that the commission would look into the matter. They were not given a time frame for when the commission might come up with a response. E-mail David Lazarus at [email protected]. ,2001 San Francisco Chronicle ? Page?A - 1 Out-of-state generators pull plug over uncertainty on price controls By Dale Kasler Bee Staff Writer (Published July 3, 2001) Confused by the federal government's new controls on electricity prices, generators withheld so much power from California on Monday that the state was nearly plunged into rolling blackouts, state officials said. The confusion began when the state's electric grid operators declared a Stage 1 power alert in the early afternoon, triggering the price caps for the first time since they went into effect June 21. Out-of-state generators pulled about 1,500 megawatts of electricity off the table at midafternoon, enough to power about 1.1 million homes, because of uncertainty about how much they could charge under the new Federal Energy Regulatory Commission pricing system, said Oscar Hidalgo, spokesperson for the state Department of Water Resources. The department buys electricity for the state's financially distressed utilities. "They didn't understand what they were going to be paid; there was confusion over the FERC order," Hidalgo said. "We saw 1,500 megawatts disappear." The problem was exacerbated by a heat wave across the West, which forced California to compete with other states for scarce electricity, he said. Rolling blackouts hit southern Nevada. Most California officials credit the FERC system, which is based on a variable price cap, with reining in what had been a runaway wholesale power market. But power generators have complained that the price caps, by limiting profits, could discourage the production of critically needed electricity. And as Monday's episode suggested, even the uncertainty about where the cap will fall could lead to unexpected shortages. "That's the risk that you run (with price controls)," said Arthur O'Donnell, editor of the newsletter California Energy Markets. "People want any kind of certainty at all." Hidalgo said the state avoided blackouts only because of last-minute imports from the Bonne'ville Power Administration, the federal agency that markets government-produced hydroelectric power in the Pacific Northwest. The state went into a Stage 2 power alert, the next-to-last level before blackouts are ordered. The alert was canceled in late afternoon. The blackouts would have been the first in California since May 8. FERC imposed a round-the-clock ceiling on power throughout the West. The price fluctuates and is tied to the production costs of the least-efficient plant operating in California during a "power alert" declared by the Independent System Operator, which runs the state's power-transmission grid. When there's no alert, prices can't exceed 85 percent of the cap that was established during the latest alert. Until Monday, the maximum price held steady at about $101 a megawatt-hour in California. But when the ISO declared a Stage 1 power alert in early afternoon, signifying that reserve supplies had dwindled to less than 7 percent of demand, confusion set in, Hidalgo and others said. Because of a steep drop in the price of natural gas, which fuels many California power plants, suppliers knew the cap would fall. But no one knew by how much until the price was posted by the ISO. The ceiling for California fell to about $77 at 3 p.m. but was back up to $98 in two hours, according to the ISO. Those prices include the 10 percent premium that sellers can charge California because FERC said there's a credit risk in selling to the state. O'Donnell said it's likely suppliers will pull back from the market every time the ISO declares a power alert. In-state generators have to operate their plants if summoned by the ISO. But out-of-state suppliers can withhold supplies, and on Monday it was the out-of-staters that were pulling back, Hidalgo said.

Power Sales Halted by New Pricing Curbs Electricity: Confused suppliers, unsure what they will be paid, refuse to sell to state, which asks FERC for a ruling but doesn't get it. By NANCY VOGEL, Times Staff Writer ?????SACRAMENTO--Confusion over new federal price restrictions prompted several electricity sellers to back away from sales to California on Monday afternoon, pushing the state closer to blackouts, energy officials said. ?????The state lost sales that would have provided enough electricity to supply more than 1 million homes, said Ray Hart, deputy director of the California Department of Water Resources, which has been buying much of the state's electricity since January. ?????At least five companies producing or marketing power "are telling us that since they don't know what they're going to get paid, they're not going to take the risk, and so they're not going to sell the energy," Hart said. ?????The electricity sales fell through after power consumption soared in summer heat and grid operators were forced to declare a Stage 1 emergency, meaning reserves had dipped below 7%. It was the first such emergency since May 31. ?????Under a June 19 order by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission intended to bring down wholesale electricity markets across the West, a power emergency in California triggers the setting of a new price limit that applies to power plant owners from Washington to Arizona. ?????The new price is supposed to be based upon whatever it costs to run the most inefficient, expensive power plant selling electricity to California grid operators during the first full hour of a Stage 1 emergency. ?????But much uncertainty remains about exactly how and when the new price is supposed to be established under the commission's order, and that apparently drove away sellers, Hart said. ?????Shortly after the state issued the Stage 1 alert at 1:30 p.m., putting the old price limit of $90 per megawatt-hour in question, companies that had committed to provide the state electricity hour by hour Monday afternoon backed out, Hart said. The companies include TransAlta Energy Marketing of Oregon, Constellation Power of Baltimore and Sempra Energy Trading, a unit of the San Diego-based energy conglomerate. ?????Forced to dip even deeper into the state's power reserves and declare a Stage 2 emergency, water agency officials called the federal energy commission's hotline for clarification about what the new price should be and when it should take effect. They got no answer. ?????Hart said commission officials reached at home promised to try to clarify their order today. One outstanding question is what obligations power suppliers have to deliver electricity to California in an emergency. ?????Both buyers and sellers in the market agree that the new price, when it is set, will probably be lower than $90 per megawatt-hour because the price of natural gas, the main fuel in California power plants, has dropped lately. ?????Temperatures soared several degrees higher Monday than grid operators had anticipated. But they said they expected to avoid rolling blackouts in part because the Bonneville Power Administration in Portland, Ore., had agreed to provide several hundred megawatts of Pacific Northwest hydropower each hour in exchange for a return of electricity from California later this summer. ?????"Bonneville is giving us emergency power to get us through," Hart said.

One of the deliverables of Revenue Management is the Marketing Dashboard which, among a veritable cornucopia of features, will include live Nymex and Enron OnLine data pricing feeds. The rollout of the Dashboard for NNG and TW is in the next 2 weeks. However, the Nymex data feed won't happen till August due to technology limitations. In the meantime, via our desktops, we all have access to Enron OnLine which provides live market data that is as good or better than Nymex.

As promised yesterday, attached is my resume and the link to the FX and Sovereign Risk group's website. I have also enclosed a list of the projects that I have recently completed. In addition the projects, I have attached an inventory of the curves that I have produced for corporate-wide deal assessment. I produced 483 curves last year for 58 countries, each curve requires a full country risk analysis including a macro-economic policy analysis, balance of payments analysis, and political risk analysis. I look forward to continuing to provide you with economic analysis in the future. I hope to see you in two months. http://ecthou-webcl1.corp.enron.com/research/ForeignExchange/FXMain.htm Regards, Maureen

Great, so glad your getting to spend some quality time with your family. Hope to see a picture of the four of you when you return. Maria called me twice yesterday, she is so concerned about you and the rumors she is hearing in Omaha. I couldn't ease her mind any, because it wouldn't be appropriate, even if I knew. I just hope and pray all of us land on our feet. God bless!!!!!!!

But I have been reading my emails along the way and know about all the meetings next week. And we can send out an email on our staff meeting on Monday.

We have never confirmed a financial deal for this counterparty before, but just in case we do. Will I need to have a special credit annex attached or would I just confirm them on our standard ISDA template? -----Original Message----- From: Boyd, Samantha Sent: Wednesday, October 31, 2001 11:30 AM To: Adams, Laurel; Allen, Kimberly; Anderson, Diane; Bailey, Derek; Bell, Jean; Bell, Rebecca; Bowen, Bob; Brewer, Julie; Cason, Sharen; Cisneros, Celeste; Fischer, Jason; Garcia, Jorge A. ; Heaney, Gordon; Hundl, Kimberly; Murphy, Melissa Ann; Ornelas, Bianca; Piwetz, Stephanie; Rodriguez, Melissa; Seib, Dianne; Theriot, Kim S.; Whalen, Melinda; Williams, Tiffany; Brackett, Debbie R.; Bradford, William S.; Brown, Angela Y.; Campbell, Lesli; Conwell, Wendy; Curry, Ken; Espinoza, Veronica; Gonzalez, Veronica; Johnson, Rudwell; Landry, Shemeika S.; Lebrocq, Wendi; Mendoza, Nidia; Monterrey, Maribel; Moran, Tom; Ngo, Tracy; North, Carol; Otto, Randy; Radous, Paul; Rajaram, Aparna; Rohauer, Tanya; Sacks, Edward; Sonnonstine, Max; Vanek, Darren; Williams, Jason R (Credit); Campos, Anthony; Colbert, Marilyn; Crawford, Sharon; Ebow, Amber; Ellstrom, Diane; Gerard, Camille; Hare, Bill D.; Johnson, Cheryl; Lambert, Karen; Landau, Georgi; Lees, Lisa; Moore, Jason; Neuner, Dale; Reeves, Leslie; Richardson, Stacey; Rodriguez, Bernice; Schott, Samuel; Sever, Stephanie; Shivers, Lynn; Sietzema, Linda; Southard, Carrie; Bailey, Susan; Cook, Mary; Gray, Barbara N.; Heard, Marie; Hendry, Brent; Jones, Tana; Koehler, Anne C.; Leite, Francisco Pinto; Nelson, Cheryl; Panus, Stephanie; Sayre, Frank; Shackleton, Sara; St. Clair, Carol; Taylor, Mark E (Legal) Subject: Amendment Agreement - Royal Bank of Canada We have received an executed Amendment Agreement dated October 9, 2001 to the ISDA Master Agreement between Enron North America Corp.

Elizabeth: I agree that it's probably better not to attend the conference. After our conversation I, too, concluded that it would be awkward---just too much explaining to do! I had a great time at Whistler and in Vancouver, but I'm glad to be back. This week is going to be exciting. Mark H. gave me a call re offices on Friday. I will try to follow up with him today. I hope all is well with you. Best, Steve

Stan, Jeff will be travelling the biggest portion of May. Would you let us know the next time Ali is in the US and I will try to work something out for them to meet. Thanks, Joannie [email protected] on 04/12/2001 11:05:55 AM To: [email protected] cc: Subject: Re: Follow-Up - Brent Larsen Jeff, Happy Easter! A few years ago at the YPO Harvard University, I met a guy from Venezuela. He and I have kept in contact through the years and we get together from time to time. We had dinner a few days ago and he asked me if I thought you might be interested in meeting with Ali Rodgrigues. Ali will be in the US sometimes in May and may be available to meet. He and my buddy have been friends for years and I thought I'd extend the offer. I don't know if there is an agenda or not. Those guys are hard to read. Just let me know if it's something you want to do. Otherwise I'll just forget about it. Keep that stock going up! -Stan
