John: I am checking with our credit person on the cxross default issue. Also, we have changed our form of Guaranty since the prior one was entered into and I would prefer that you consider using the new form. The main difference is in Section 2 where we have made chnages to the mechanics for demanding payment under the Guaranty. These are the exact same mechanics that are in the Enron Guaranty that I provideed. Enclosed is the new form. Let me know what you think.

I will send you new drafts once I incorporate comments from them. Two other things: 1. Enclosed is a "new" format of Guarantee for your review. Actually, this should be similar to the 1995/6 version Enron has already accepted. 2. I disagree with your changes in C/D threshold discussed below. We prefer to limit this to the Credit Support Provider (as per your original change) as this is who guarantees the ISDA. I have incorporated your original comments with little change which you can review when I send the drafts.

If we are still open to changes I would suggest adding a sentence (in brackets below) to the paragraph about retail competition that supports a reasonable proposal by the ISO market survailence committee. We all hope that the market will do it anyway but in a disfunctional market certain things need to be mandated. ".....Second, California should not abandon its goal of fostering retail competition. New competitors need the ample, stable and reliable electricity supplies that a reformed market system will promote. Retail competition can help bring new types of contracts and metering systems, and better awareness of environmental effects as entrants introduce "green" packages, and demand-side innovations. This is another reason why consumers must pay the real cost of electricity, as retail competition cannot thrive in an environment in which supply companies lack retail pricing freedom. As a consequence, companies involved in retail supply, including the California utilities, should be allowed to pass-through their energy costs in a competitive environment. [At the same time retail customers should be guaranteed the option of locking in a fixed fair price by the default supplier and not be exposed to market volatility should they choose to do so.] Finally, oversight of the electricity business will always be needed. The cornerstones of electricity regulation must be oversight of the distribution function, and ensuring that any anticompetitive behavior by suppliers is circumscribed.

Hi Kate, A few quesions about this one. Why is it no confirm? Why is it entered so funny (instead of just entering off-peak hours, it was entered strip by strip for sundays, which makes it come over really strange on the confirm.) It's not necessarily wrong, but whoever entered it needs to know that there's a much easier way to enter off-peak deals. And finally, who is the contact? Thanks so much for your help! Hope you had a great weekend! Kim

Pete Wilson 27 Addison Street Gloucester, MA 02128 [email protected] To Mr. Ken Lay, I'm writing to urge you to donate the millions of dollars you made from selling Enron stock before the company declared bankruptcy to funds, such as Enron Employee Transition Fund and REACH, that benefit the company's employees, who lost their retirement savings, and provide relief to low-income consumers in California, who can't afford to pay their energy bills. Enron and you made millions out of the pocketbooks of California consumers and from the efforts of your employees. Indeed, while you netted well over a $100 million, many of Enron's employees were financially devastated when the company declared bankruptcy and their retirement plans were wiped out. And Enron made an astronomical profit during the California energy crisis last year. As a result, there are thousands of consumers who are unable to pay their basic energy bills and the largest utility in the state is bankrupt. The New York Times reported that you sold $101 million worth of Enron stock while aggressively urging the company's employees to keep buying it. Please donate this money to the funds set up to help repair the lives of those Americans hurt by Enron's underhanded dealings. Sincerely, Pete Wilson

Those sources say the unusual maneuvers not only jacked up prices but also wore down equipment and contributed to the record levels of plant shutdowns that are depriving the state of much-needed electricity. The accounts are supported by an independent review of shutdown data by The Chronicle. The California Energy Commission calculates that an average of 14,990 megawatts of generating capacity, nearly a third of the state's total, was unavailable each day in April because of plant shutdowns, more than four times as much as a year ago. Such shutdowns are the subject of increasing scrutiny as California enters another period of high demand, the warm spring and summer months of May to September, when electricity usage normally grows by a third. Loretta Lynch, president of the California Public Utilities Commission, said last week the agency has found considerable evidence of suspicious plant shutdowns. And the California Independent System Operator, which manages the state's power grid, says plant shutdowns have now become the primary means of constricting supply. But an extensive investigation by The Chronicle has found that not only were generators shut down to boost prices but these "gaming" tactics contributed to the plants' deteriorating condition. "We suspected it," said Jim MacIntosh, the manager of grid operations for the ISO. "It was a sure factor in driving up prices." Such swings in unit output, he said, "would only make sense in a scenario when they're trying to game something. Otherwise, why would they do that? They're tearing their units up." Unusual phone calls Operators at a San Bernardino County power plant owned by Reliant Energy Inc. say a complex plan to manipulate the California energy market began early last year with a series of unusual telephone calls from the company's headquarters in Houston. According to the accounts of three plant operators, Reliant's operations schedulers on the energy trading floor ordered them to repeatedly decrease, then increase output at the 1,046-megawatt Etiwanda plant. This happened as many as four or five times an hour. Each time the units were ramped down and electricity production fell, plant employees watched on a control room computer screen as spot market energy prices rose. Then came the phone call to ramp the units back up. "They would tell us what to do, and we would do it," said one of the men, who only agreed to speak on condition they not be identified because they fear being fired. "Afterward, we would just sit there and watch the market change." The workers said frequent and large swings in electricity output began at a number of California power plants just as the state's power crisis began in earnest. The workers and state power authorities assert the swings were one of the primary means of gaming the wholesale energy market. "It appears the control rooms are responsive to direction from the trading floors in Houston, rather than the reliability needs of the ISO," said Carl Wood, a commissioner with the utilities commission who is overseeing that agency's investigation into plant outages. "Instead of being responsive to demands for reliability, they're responsive to demands for profitability." Corporate denial Reliant officials adamantly deny using this tactic or any other mechanism to game the California energy market. They and other power companies, including AES Corp. and a partnership between NRG Energy Inc. and Dynegy Inc., have asserted that skyrocketing electricity demand forced them to run aging, decrepit power plants harder than ever to meet California's needs. While acknowledging that the company issued changes in output levels as frequently as every 10 minutes, company officials said it was done at the instructions of the ISO to maintain supply-demand balance. "As a part of routinely doing business within California and the California market design, we are required to do that," said Kevin Frankeny, an operations official with Reliant. "When the ISO (issues dispatch orders), they dispatch on a 10-minute basis. It can go up and down many times within an hour." Frankeny said he was not aware of any instances in which Reliant schedulers in Houston ordered dispatch changes without the ISO directing them to do it first. The ISO refused to comment on operations at any specific facility, but Stephanie McCorkle, an ISO spokeswoman, said the ramping tactics were used beyond dispatch instructions during periods of tight supply. And one of the plant operators said the orders to vary output came independently of the grid managers. "ISO was not calling Reliant every 10 minutes for that," said one of the operators. "Not for an individual unit." Officials with the California attorney general's office declined to comment on the legality of the ramping practice, citing a continuing investigation into whether wholesale energy prices are being manipulated. One source familiar with the state of various inquiries said the ramping, if proved to have been done to drive up prices, could violate the state's unfair business practices laws. Invisible practice How could companies such as Reliant tinker with output and not get caught? One of the plant workers said the practice was designed to be virtually invisible to regulators and grid operators. When power companies bid on hourly contracts, they agree to produce a certain amount of electricity over the given hour. Generators are paid based on an average of the spot market prices for that hour. By driving up the spot price, they can increase their hourly profits and still produce the total amount of energy required. The plant worker said the units would be ramped down immediately after their output measurement, which was performed at the top of each hour by the ISO. Then, he said, it was brought back up as the spot market price of electricity rose in response to the reduced output. By the time the ISO measured again, the output was back at the expected level. Another operator said the units were not always ramped up and down - that if the price reached a satisfactory level, generators would raise output and remain at that level as long as the price was right. Other times, if the price was low, output was brought down and kept down. The same operator said the amount of ramping appeared to be a matter of individual will of the company schedulers in Houston, with some being more aggressive than others. "What they would do, especially late at night, is if the price tanked, they would undergenerate," an operator said. "Then, mysteriously, the price would go up. "Then, if the schedule was at 70 (required megawatt hours of output), they'd say, 'Go up to 90.' That would cause the price to tank. And they'd say, 'Bring it down again.' " Rapid changes These fluctuations occurred within time spans of as little as 10 to 15 minutes, the operators said. But acceptable rates for bringing a unit from minimum to maximum levels when the plant was owned by Southern California Edison were more like 80 minutes, to avoid stressing the machinery, one of the workers said. Moreover, they were typically run at constant levels, which also reduced wear and tear. "They were basically ramping up as fast as they can, and then slamming the brakes on," said one of the operators. "They were increasing the fatigue on the units." ISO officials say they changed market operations last fall to crack down on gaming tactics, including instituting a so-called 10-minute market, rather than the hourly market, so that it could be more easily detected when companies were withholding power. But the ISO says generator outages have now become the primary tactic in driving up energy prices. A computer analysis by The Chronicle of shutdown data over a recent 39-day period shows Reliant and three other generating companies topped the list of plant shutdowns. Reliant also represented the largest amount of wattage lost among those companies. Plants owned by Reliant, AES, Mirant Corp. and Duke Energy Inc. accounted for more than half of the state's unplanned shutdowns, even though their generating capacity was no more than 25 percent of the state's total capacity from all sources. Reliant, one of California's largest and most profitable out-of-state generators, reported 319 shutdowns during the period in March and April. It was followed by Mirant Corp. of Atlanta (310), AES Corp. of Arlington, Va. (278) and Duke Energy North America of Charlotte, N.C. (261). Reliant's unplanned shutdowns deprived the system of more than 53,000 megawatts over the 40-day period, an average of 1,368 per day - enough power for 1.4 million homes for one hour. Its Ormond Beach plant in Oxnard, with one generating unit down for 26 days, accounted for more than 30,000 of those missed megawatts. However, an operator who worked in that plant said the outages there appeared to be the result of legitimate equipment failures. Reliant says there are valid reasons for its plants now to be in need of repair. They are old: At 48, Etiwanda is the oldest of Reliant's five California plants. And the company says routine maintenance was deferred so the plants could remain in service during times of high summer demand. But the operators said the issue is not so clear-cut. One problem at Etiwanda, a tube leak, had been present for about a month and was previously reported to management, they said, but it had not deteriorated much, it was operating at full capacity and there was no immediate need to take the unit offline because of the problem. Moreover, at the time of the shutdown, the ISO had expressly asked Reliant to keep the unit online, the operators said. Richard Wheatley, a spokesman for Reliant, denied that any Reliant unit was taken offline for unnecessary maintenance. Ramping may be rampant Sources say Reliant was not alone in using the ramping practice. A source familiar with the state utilities commission investigation said output logs obtained from AES' Alamitos plant also reflected production fluctuations. And an operator who has worked at the El Segundo plant co-owned by NRG and Dynegy said the practice was used there, although less frequently. The scheduling calls came from Dynegy's trading floor in Houston, rather than NRG in Minneapolis, he said. Steve Stengel, a spokesman for Dynegy, said changes in output at El Segundo were a normal function of changing demand levels throughout the day, and denied the company was engaged in gaming the California market. In a May 2000 report, the California Energy Commission cited Reliant's Etiwanda plant, as well as the Alamitos and El Segundo plants, as some of the "major beneficiaries of high real-time prices" that spring. One way to obtain those high prices, the plant workers said, was the simple method of demanding a sky-high price and refusing to deliver power if that price was not met. On one occasion, one operator said, Reliant ordered a unit at Etiwanda to be shut off because the ISO would not meet the price of $1,000 per megawatt hour, even though the legal price cap at the time was $750. "The operator said, 'It's our unit, shut it off,' " the source said. E-mail Christian Berthelsen at [email protected] and Scott Winokur at [email protected].

We make the following points:- 1. We notice that OM has agreed at least to a certain form of mutual limitation of liability clause in the OMNet Agreement and therefore we find it a little odd that OM is unable to agree to any mutual limitation of liability clause in the OM Click Trade Application Licence. We should be very grateful if OM would explain to us its reasoning for this in detail. 2. In any event, it is entirely against Enron's legal policy to enter into agreements containing merely a unilateral limitation of liability clause protecting the other party. Accordingly, we are not prepared to enter into the OM Click Trade Application Licence in your current revised format. I therefore attach, once again, as a Word document the text of Enron's required clause on limitation of liability which I would suggest is added to the OM Click Trade Application Licence as Clause 5.4. Once OM is in a position to agree to our required language, we should then be in a position to execute the documentation. I look forward to hearing from you at your earliest convenience.

From: "Winston Goodbody" <[email protected]> 03/10/2001 07:56 AM To: [email protected] cc: Subject: Yellowstone Ski Traverse - Update from Leg 4 Hi All, Here,s my update for leg 4 of our Yellowstone Ski Traverse. As always, full info on our trip along with pictures can be found on our web site: http://ski.mountainzone.com/2001/yellowstone/html/ Win *********** Thorofare: Yellowstone,s Heart of Gold By Win Goodbody Thorofare Creek. Two Ocean Pass. Atlantic Creek. Yellowstone Point. Open Creek. To hunters from around the world these are more than just names of geographic features in northwest Wyoming,s Teton Wilderness. They are legendary places renowned for abundant wildlife in the most remote area of the US,s lower 48 states. The closest road is 30 miles distant. Right next door is Yellowstone National Park. For those who know some part of the thousands of square miles of rugged terrain here on either side of the Park border, the area is simply &Thorofare8. Inside this one word fits the very heart of Yellowstone country, the distilled essence of everything that is great about this crown jewel of America,s natural heritage. Thorofare really refers to two main drainages that grow from steep mountain creeks into larger rivers that meander through flat, wide valley bottoms before merging. Each drainage is initially tight and dense, spilling down between rocky Absaroka peaks, but then broadens and opens into vast meadows etched with old oxbows where waterways shift back and forth. The Thorofare Creek drainage starts on the north face of Younts Peak near the Continental Divide and heads north before turning west. The Yellowstone River drainage starts on the south side of Younts and goes west before turning north. These two rivers wind around opposite sides of the massive Thorofare Plateau and then join just before entering Yellowstone National Park,s southeast corner. It seems odd that the river downstream of the confluence is called the Yellowstone, for before they meet Thorofare Creek looks larger than the Yellowstone River. From this point the Yellowstone flows north into the Park until it hits Yellowstone Lake, some 15 miles away. Thorofare hosts the bulk of its human visitors during one concentrated period each year. Every autumn in those parts of Thorofare outside the Park, hunters arrive to pursue elk, moose, deer, and other game. Whether or not they are in harmony with the letter or, more importantly, the spirit of the law, there are in fact many permanent hunting camps scattered throughout Thorofare and the Teton Wilderness, and it is clear that hunting is big business. Miniature towns spring up as large groups with convoys of horses haul in everything needed to live well for weeks on end. The more developed camps feature raised platforms, log furniture, corrals, and enormous 50 gallon steel drums in which food is secured from bears. Though there are usually ample numbers of animals to hunt outside the Park, guides and outfitters will place salt licks just beyond the Park boundary in an effort to lure creatures out and ensure that paying clients have something to blast away at. Other people, far fewer in number, come to hunt with camera and binoculars, either in summer or fall. For them, just being in Thorofare and feeling the pulse of this magnificent land is sufficient payback for the long journey in. Here are also to be found animals that cannot be hunted, such as wolves and grizzly bears. Despite all of the usual problems that will have an impact on Thorofare,s future, this is still a staggering swath of relatively undisturbed earth where, to paraphrase the Wilderness Act of 1964, &(man is a visitor who does not remain.8 All told, several thousand people might pass through during the annual window of milder weather. But for more than half the year, from early November until early June, no one comes. With the first real snowfall the back country falls quiet and the last humans decamp for town. A visit to Thorofare in winter is therefore a chance to experience real isolation and behold Yellowstone,s unique beauty during a harsh season. This was the fourth leg of our Yellowstone traverse and a return to longer distance travel. The second and third legs of the winter had each been half as long as the one before (the first leg was 130 miles, the second was 60, the third was 35). We had to break out of this pattern, I realized, or we would soon be down to day trips of several hundred yards. A trip into Thorofare was just the thing to turn our attentions back to bigger miles and more challenging territory. We figured it would take two weeks to cover the 80 mile route we had plotted. Remote in summer, Thorofare is even harder to reach when snow is on the ground. Approaching from the south, it,s 30 miles through wild Absaroka territory. Continuing from where we left off at the end of our last leg through the northern Gros Ventre Range, we depart from Togwotee Pass in unsettled weather. Scattered snow showers swirl around in a black sky. After several sunny days in town, which I used mainly to sit inside and eat too much, it looks like we are at last due for some snow. Amazingly, Togwotee Pass is the first road running east west across the Continental Divide in Wyoming we have come to since starting our trip almost two months ago 200 miles to the south. We will cross only one or two more roads between here and the northern turnaround point of our traverse at Bozeman, Montana. Heading north from Togwotee feels a little bit bleak, even if we do have a groomed road to follow for the first few miles. We,re really leaving civilization behind and going deep into the woods this time. Or so we think. Five miles on, a stunning old wooden lodge appears. Built in 1922, it stands on the original highway to Yellowstone and was the stopping point for many illustrious personalities back in the day. In more recent years, I had heard from someone, it was a basic back country lodge where you could stay or eat. Just a nice place to stop in. We ski hungrily to its door, drawn by full-blown fantasies of one more night inside, one last meal before being forced back into our pathetic floorless tent (it,s all we,ve brought this time) where we live on dehydrated beans and sticks of butter. Sadly, Brooks Lake Lodge has turned into an upscale if barely patronized outfit of late, a way station for private snowmobile tours. The local henchman materializes instantly and removes us from the bar before we can even inquire what,s on tap or find out if any of the paying guests want to put some money on a game of billiards. I ask whether, by any chance, there,s some unheated back hallway in employee housing where we could maybe curl up in our sleeping bags for the night? The response is as warm as a mid February night in Yellowstone: No can do. We decide to retreat just beyond the fascist compound,s perimeter to erect our shantytown for the night. It,s now snowing in earnest. It,s hard to explain the kind of magnetic appeal these last outposts of humanity exert on me as we leave on a trip. It seems to be getting worse as the winter wears on. Each leg is just a little harder to embark on. Each departure day (especially if the weather is dark) seems a little grimmer. I feel I am looking for a reason - any reason - to put off for one more day the inevitable wilderness death march that is sure to come. Any diversion at all to hang us up. To be rebuffed at the lodge when comfort is so close seems unbearable. I,m just not ready to crawl into the sleeping bag again. I almost want to shell out the $150 for a night indoors. And it,s not just major, obvious pitstops like a lodge in front of my skis that make me want to postpone the inevitable. Outward bound on our drives from town to trailheads now, every little gas station we pass suddenly looks like a great place to stop and explore. They might have precious local gifts we can find nowhere else. They might sell those orange hats that say, &My wife thinks I,m hunting8! I need one of those. Or maybe a piece of petrified wood with &Wyoming8 emblazoned on it. Definitely need one of those in the pack. And I must get another road atlas for my collection. Any kind of establishment that has anything for sale must be investigated. Look over there! Don,t we need a 300 pound chainsaw wood carving of a moose head? What, to take with us? Can we stop at this bathroom? We just stopped 15 minutes ago. I know, but I don,t want to miss one. Should we stop for lunch here? We already had lunch. Twice. I know but(we may never eat again. Whoa there! A point of historical interest! Can we stop and read about how trapper Bucky nearly starved to death at this very spot 150 years ago and had to resort to eating the leather from his snowshoes? We really shouldn,t. Hits too close to home. Plus it,s getting late. That,s exactly the point, I think. If I can just stall for another hour or two we may have to wait another day before casting off. Like sand slipping through my fingers, the few remaining opportunities for frittering away time vanish into the air. The trailhead is getting dangerously close now. Doesn,t look like there,s any way out. Wait! Turn this car around! I can,t leave without knowing who won the match between the Jersey Penguins and the Hosers! I try to disguise my inadequate knowledge of pro sports by keeping the references vague. Leave off a city name here, the full team moniker there. I,m sure as heck not going to risk mentioning a specific sport by name. Cast the net wide, I think. Better chance of getting something. Could be baseball, basketball, hockey, Australian football, or cricket I,m talking about. Jersey might mean New Jersey, or maybe I,m off in Britain following a darts tournament. Have to keep Joe guessing. There must be a pro sport game going on somewhere in the world at this moment. And I have to know the outcome! I,m hoping cricket. Don,t those things go on for days? We can,t leave now, not when Sri Lanka might be trailing Norway by hundreds of points or baskets or yards or whatever they have in that game. Come on Sri Lanka! No dice. A last whimpering claim that I,ve forgotten my stock car racing magazines and can,t go forward without them does nothing to slow the car down. The trailhead looms. I,m being delivered to my doom with no delay. The morning after being denied our civil rights at the Brooks Lake Lodge, we awake to more snow. Not what I was hoping to see. It,s coming down. Not really dumping, but steadily snowing. We may have a few inches from the night. This is the first real accumulation from a storm we,ve seen this winter, and it has an immediate effect on our mood. Before I,m more than three words into the sentence I,ve crafted to subliminally convince Joe that maybe we should stay put and see what the weather does, he practically shouts his assent to the plan. Apparently we,re on the same wavelength. It,s the first rest day we,ve taken on the trail, the first day we haven,t packed up and kept moving no matter what. The very thought of sitting around drinking endless cups of tea and reading sounds like heaven to me. And then there is the lodge with roaring fireplaces and gourmet food just across the way. We vow to take a second shot at infiltrating the posh resort. It turns out the lodge is open to the public (read: unwashed masses) for lunch, so we slink over and decide to pay way too much for a fabulous four course meal. The fact that we are now actual customers parting with dollars and not marauding visigoths (for the moment) keeps the welcoming committee from last night at bay. I still feel like there is a closed circuit camera pointing at our table and burly guards in an underground command center watching our every move, but for the moment everything is ok. Here it is day 2 and Joe,s having the mushroom fettuccine while I demolish the linguine with cream sauce. Our only concern is the size of the portions, but we figure this isn,t the usual &all you can eat8 joint we,re accustomed to and that a request for &some more8 wouldn,t be well received. Now that we,ve taken the financial hit, we decide to get our money,s worth. We have justified the significant outlay for lunch as tickets to a day indoors (the snow continues to fall). Even though the restaurant closes at 2:30 PM, we hang around and play pool in the bar. Then we settle in with some magazines and try to strike up a conversation with the bartender. Maybe we can find some common ground that will lead to an invitation to stay inside tonight. Doesn,t happen. I watch him periodically out of the corner of my eye to see if he,s whispering into some tiny microphone on his lapel, reporting back to the command center on our whereabouts. Come 5 PM Joe is still inside by the fire, reading and smiling at every staff member who passes by. They seem to be appearing with some frequency, maybe to check whether he,s still there. He,s doing his best to look like a legitimate overnight patron, but they,re not buying it. They,re probably trying to decide which of several different lodge security forces should be tasked with removing him. Meanwhile I,ve reached my shame threshold and have gone outside for a ski around the lake, not wanting to be present for the inevitable hands-on eviction that will occur as soon as our goon friend from last night returns. Sure enough, around 6 PM Joe is formally asked to leave. He goes without a fight and heads back to the tent to inform me of the defeat. As much as we might want to, it,s pretty clear by now that we are not going to be spending the rest of the winter at Brooks Lake Lodge. I don,t even think we can get away with our 7 hour lunch scam again. I,m picturing an all out offensive by the authorities to remove us from the immediate area (and maybe Wyoming) starting first thing in the morning if they so much as catch a glimpse of us. We have to move. Our choices are to turn around and ski the five miles back to the road where we,ll start hitch hiking south to Mexico and a sunny beach, or to push on. We decide on the latter and saddle up on the morning of day 3. We,re Absaroka bound. Not a peep from the lodge as we head across Brooks Lake. I look around half expecting to see artillery pieces on surrounding peaks swiveling towards us, trained and ready just in case we change our minds and try to head inside again. But the layover was not a total loss. Far from it. In fact, the poor weather motivated us to consult our maps for the first time and see exactly what we were getting into. It was a bit of a wake up call. We seem to be in the habit of planning most sections of our trip on very large scale maps. Restaurant place mats of Wyoming, road atlases, maps of the US hanging in drug stores, globes of the earth: all of these have at one point or another been the research tool of choice for plotting our way through Greater Yellowstone. The only problem with these topographic specimens is that they yield none of the low-level detail necessary to actually navigate day by day. What ends up happening is that the night before we leave on a leg (assuming we have had the foresight to get our hands on a quad or other smaller scale map) we sit down to examine how we might actually get through wherever it is we are heading. Suddenly the landscape is full of cliffs, avalanche slopes, gorges, and dense woods. It,s sort of like tracing a finger across a map of Arizona thinking it might be a fun hike, then realizing you just crossed the Grand Canyon. What looked pretty straightforward on the map of Wyoming that flashed across the TV screen during an evening weather report now looks downright impossible. These are usually quiet moments as we each pore over the maps and realize that there is no way we can go where we thought we could. Spreading out all our quad maps on the table in the lodge after lunch (I glance nervously at the bartender to see if this breach of decorum might prompt a call to the command center), we get a rude shock. There is no way we are going to be able to follow the Continental Divide north from Brooks Lake to the headwaters of Thorofare Creek as was our plan. The Divide here is a featureless plateau above treeline, and getting on and off would require crossing steep slopes. With this year,s poor snow conditions, not to mention the storm that was currently unloading, it would be plain foolish to head up there. Plus we don,t have a real tent, and our experience on Island in the Sky during leg 2 has already filled my annual quota for traveling (not to mention camping) on exposed plateaus in high winds during whiteouts. It,s as if there is a blackboard in front of us with our route chalked on it. We get out the eraser and wipe the slate clean. We have to rethink the entire thing, or at least the first half. We notice there is a low route option. It winds around and follows drainages where the Continental Divide route is straight, but there are no dangerous slopes and it stays mostly on valley bottoms. We hadn't thought of going this way before because of dreadfully dense woods and the potential for out of body bushwhacking experiences, but now we see there are trails we could follow. It might not be too bad. Yeah, I,ve heard that one before. Without much discussion we mentally draw the new route up on the board. We,re happy about it. It feels like a huge relief now to know that we aren,t going off to be sacrificed to the weather gods. The optimism about our new route more than offsets any bad feelings from the Brooks Lake Lodge affair, and we set off excited and energetic. I am raring to go and don,t want to return to town anymore. For two days we hack our way toward the South Buffalo Fork drainage. The going isn,t great, we see some of the same bottomless, collapsible junk we,ve come to expect and love, but we are moving forward at least. By afternoon of day 4 we arrive at a hunting camp on the side of a large meadow below Pendergraft Peak. In a low snow year such as this it is very easy to spot these camps, some more elaborate than others. The site of crude log structures and a large metal drum inspires us to make ourselves a home away from home. We dig a large rectangular pit down to the ground and gather wood for a fire. In an hour we are as comfortable as one could be, in or out of town. There are some large trees above us, and even though snow is falling we are sheltered. We stoke the fire, gaze out into the Absaroka night, and enjoy a break from the brutal cold that has followed us on past legs. One of my favorite rationalizations is that it can,t be brutally cold if it,s storming, and vice versa. So the good news tonight is that it isn,t brutally cold. Because it,s storming. The next morning, after more consulting with the maps, we make the second major change in our route. As snow continues to fall and we look at the area around Younts Peak on the quad (for the first time, of course), we notice what a perfect avalanche slope our route crosses. No way to avoid it. This is where we planned to get over the Continental Divide, which runs along the spine of the high Absaroka crest in this area. Worse, we notice that the trail on the other side of the Divide up Thorofare Creek stops before the head of the canyon. There are several miles between where we would pass Younts Peak and pick up the trail on the valley floor below. Hmmm. I wonder why that is? If there is anything I have learned so far this year, it is to STAY ON THE TRAIL! I have told Joe I will pay him $50 for every time I suggest leaving the trail as long as he hits me with a shovel and prevents me from actually doing it. If there is a trail through an area, there is a reason for it. And if a trail stops somewhere, you can be darn sure there is a reason for it. After all, people have been traveling through these parts for hundreds, even thousands of years. It,s highly unlikely that all the nice routes through haven,t been found already. Adventurous off trail exploration in a place like the Absarokas certainly has its place, but not when you,re trying to make good time with heavy packs in February. Examining the tight spacing of contour lines on our quad map, I see that the upper Thorofare drainage near Younts Peak looks like prime habitat for some of my least favorite species, namely cliffs and gorges. I also suspect there are healthy local populations of downed trees and impenetrable brush lurking in there. Our experiences leaving the trail along the Green River during leg 1 and then again coming down Redmond Creek during leg 2 have left too much emotional scar tissue to ignore. I don,t want to do it again. I picture us rappelling with packs using the shoelace, our 120 foot section of 8 mm chord. No thanks. Afraid that a descent of the upper Thorofare would use up our lifetime quotas of world class bushwhacking and canyoneering, we decide to nix it. But we then see there is another way over the Divide with a trail the whole way. Instead of going north from Younts and then west (following Thorofare Creek) toward the massive meadows where Thorofare Creek and the Yellowstone River meet, we can go west and then north (following the Yellowstone River). I,m disappointed we are abandoning Thorofare Creek, but the idea of descending the Yellowstone River almost from its source (which, as for Thorofare Creek, is Younts Peak) is thrilling. A few minutes spent with the map and we are once again excited and happy with this change of plans. There is no question it,s an easier route. Also a little bit shorter. All these breakthroughs in planning and navigation, and it,s not even 9 am! Meanwhile, as we realize the route just got easier and shorter, and notice snow is still falling on and off, and feel the warmth from the morning fire we have going at possibly the best camp site either one of has ever enjoyed in winter, what do we decide to do but(take another day off and stay put! We,re getting used to this rest day thing now. It,s so easy to do. You simply wake up and announce you,re not going anywhere and then go back to sleep. Again, I am the first to verbalize the concept, unsure whether Joe is going to think I have gone completely soft. The second rest day and it,s only day 5?! Instead he responds as if I,ve just offered to carry his pack the rest of the trip. A rest day it will be then. Back to the fire. Once again, we are both thinking the same thing. We spend the day lounging, reading, and collecting enough wood for a massive bonfire. Before this winter, I had only experienced one fire on an overnight ski trip, and that was in June. As I had never done it much before, I never thought of making fire a part of the daily winter camping routine. If you had asked me about having a fire in winter before this year, I probably would have said it was a lot of trouble and not worth the effort. But that was before I went ski touring with Joe Hartney. A veteran of not one but several courses on tracking and outdoor skills taught by my fellow New Jerseyan Tom Brown, Joe knows what he,s doing out here. Thank God one of us does. I increasingly feel like I am playing client to Joe,s guide. When it comes to fire, Joe leaps into action like a dynamo. He can have a blaze going in no time and seems to instinctively set about gathering wood the moment we make camp, much as I grab the shovel and start excavating a hole for our tent. After seeing how easy it is to get one going in the right conditions, I am now a winter fire convert. A fire in winter is nice anytime anywhere, but in the Absarokas right now conditions are so fire-friendly that it is almost foolish not to have one. Like much of the west, the Absarokas are still bone dry after the active fire year in 2000. All the fuel that did not burn is still right there under a few feet of snow. Actually the Absarokas themselves did not ignite much this past year, but they could have. Literally all you need to do to start a fire is brush the snow off a piece of wood and hold a match to it. It,s astonishing how dry it is. You can hold a match to boughs on a dead tree and ignite the entire canopy. Past blazes killed many trees but left them standing. They now fall down all over the place. There are huge quantities of partially burned trees on the ground. It takes little effort to find and collect them. Possibly the best thing about winter fires is that you can have them in places you never could in the summer. Whereas in current conditions a summer bonfire in South Buffalo Fork would set Wyoming on fire, in winter it,s perfectly safe and manageable. We leave our hunting camp on day 6, and even though we have spent almost two days there doing nothing but eating and roasting next to the fire it,s not easy to pack up. The weather remains spotty and we know we,re long overdue for a pummeling. But everything we own is dry and we are fully rested and beyond well fed. Building on the obscene amount of food I consumed during the last stint in town, I have continued to eat like it,s the end of the world and now feel a little sick. I almost have to force myself to eat dinner just to keep the weight reduction program for my pack going, but in truth I,m no longer hungry. I guess there are worse afflictions I could be suffering from in the back country. Having gone as far as possible up the South Buffalo Fork, we,re ascending Lake Creek toward the Continental Divide now. We have to go up and over to hit the Yellowstone River, and we pray for a decent weather window to see us through. We,ve made all the route changes we can at this point. There,s no way to avoid this high crossing. The first day going up is pretty good. There are so many trail blazes on so many trees we may as well have a set of runway lights guiding us along. We don,t even have to pay attention to follow the trail. We get some sun splashes but no real views that paint a picture of the route ahead. Can,t really see where we,re going up above. That night it clears up, which brings back the cold. Down to around )20 F but we,re doing fine. The next day we get going early and things look good initially. We approach within a mile or two of Ferry Lake. Almost to the Divide. All the snow that,s been falling over the last few days is really adding up now. We,re glad we don,t have to face that blank Younts headwall in what are surely terrible avalanche conditions. It,s deep powder. Would be great skiing, but we,re breaking trail through it. A few hundred feet above Ferry Lake is a mild pass over the Divide that will deliver us into Woodard Canyon, at the bottom of which we will hit the Yellowstone River, our highway for the rest of the trip. Once we reach the Yellowstone all route-finding and weather issues will be done as it,s flat ground on the trail the rest of the way. Even if it,s a raging storm we will be in the trees and can slog along ok. I am looking forward to that moment even though I know we are sure to hit some terrible snow down there. I,d rather face the bad snow demon than be way up here waiting for the Blizzard of ,01 to kick in. But it will have to be another day that we find out what Woodard Canyon looks like. Quickly, thoroughly, the weather turns evil. It,s snowing and blowing, and visibility deteriorates. We can,t actually see Ferry Lake, but we know it must be there in front of us. We leave the trees to start plodding up toward the lake and get a taste of the wind. It,s not an Island in the Sky gale, but still humming along all the same. We can,t see a thing. We blunder around for an hour and incredibly are still not sure where the lake is. This is a decent-sized alpine lake, and the fact that we can,t find it doesn,t bode well for tracking down the pass above. We take cover in a clump of wind-blasted trees to figure out a plan. I know Joe wants to go up and over regardless. I,m not that concerned about finding the pass. We can get out the compass and start flying blind if it comes to that. It,s more the question of what descending Woodard Canyon in the maelstrom will be like that has me worried. Whereas we can put it in reverse, retrace our steps, and still find our way back to treeline and a feasible camp site on this side of the Divide, once we go through the pass we,re just on our own in the whiteout with no knowledge of what lies ahead. The voice of fear and paranoia prevails, and I convince Joe that retreat sounds pretty good right about now. We turn tail, and though it,s not been more than 25 minutes or so since we entered the stand of trees, our tracks have been erased by the wind. We just took it as a given that our tracks would be there as an umbilical chord for at least a few hours or so in case we wanted to go back, but they,re gone. We eventually find them by probing around for a more supportable strip of snow through the white and manage to feel our way along. We make it back into the woods by mid afternoon and set up the tent behind a massive tree that shields us from the wind almost completely. Time to wait. The storm rages on. It,s Saturday, and I realize a good friend is having a no-holds-barred 30th birthday bash back in Portland, OR this very night. The theme is Saturday Night Fever. What I wouldn,t give to be there. Instead, I,m stuck here singing songs from the soundtrack. The names of several of them such as &Night Fever8 and &Staying Alive8 seem rather appropriate given our situation. From Joe,s scowl I can tell I,m not the only one wishing I were elsewhere. We get our window the next day. It isn,t clear, but we can see the lake, and once we reach it we can see the pass. And then it does clear, or at least on the east side of the Divide. What we see confirms a half-baked weather theory we have been working on the last few days. Coming up the South Buffalo Fork we have had some real snow, but we have also had nearly continuous light flurries as something frozen ) not snow ) falls from the air. It,s more like tiny pieces of frozen vapor. This happens all the time, even when skies are clear. It,s almost like any moisture that is in the air ) even if there are no clouds ) is being squeezed out. Given the local topography, this makes sense. The Continental Divide here is a high mountain crest above 10,000 feet, and all weather moving west to east gets pushed up over this massive obstacle. With the lifting, the moisture has no choice but to come out. Once we are at the pass and can see both sides of the Divide we are given a stark piece of visual evidence that seems to support the theory. To the west the South Buffalo Fork is a sea of clouds, while to the east down Woodard Canyon it,s a clear, sunny day. Descending Woodard Canyon is a joy. The upper reaches of the drainage are so open we can just cruise along effortlessly. I have taken up the call I championed toward the end of leg 1 in the Wind River Range that "it,s all downhill from here". While technically true, it,s also almost 45 miles to the road. Joe strips his climbing skins off his skis and makes a few turns in perfect powder. As we get into the woods we find more of the manic trail blazes everywhere. We lose the trail maybe once or twice while crossing open avalanche chutes but quickly rediscover it. I have started to photograph these trail blazes. I want a collection of them. What could be more welcome to the eye of a ski tourer in the Absarokas than big, fresh trail blazes? We are really getting lucky with this one. Before we know it the downhill stops and we are standing on the bank of the upper Yellowstone River. It seems hard to believe, but we have penetrated to the inner sanctum. How did this happen? The moat has been crossed, the turret guards sacked, doors broken down, inner courtyards laid waste, maidens rescued from towers. We are there. We have battled our way through to the most remote place in the lower 48 states. And it wasn,t even that hard! We listen as our shouts of joy echo crazily up into the canyons. I cringe to think how enraged the local weather gods will be when they wake up and see that we are already over the Divide and deep into the promised land. Nothing they can do about it now. Too late to throw the Blizzard of ,01 at us. Sorry guys. Maybe next time. I almost want to cry. It feels indescribable to be here at last. The Yellowstone River in February! 35 miles upstream from Yellowstone Lake! It seems so wild, so quiet, so alive, so free, and so far away. It,s a vision that could sustain decades of wilderness ski touring. Just the thought that one day I might stand right here could get me through anything. Steep-sided cliffs and slopes of burned, thin trees plummet down on all sides. It feels massive, an ocean of wilderness. There are animal tracks everywhere. The river itself is not very wide yet. After all, we are only a few miles downstream from its origin on Younts Peak and it,s just getting going. But there is no mistaking that with a little care and feeding and a few hundred miles of flow, this little whipper snapper is going to grow into one of the great rivers of the Northern Rockies. We stand and gawk. The weather is lovely and late afternoon color starts to paint the scene. This is one to remember. Eventually we snap out of our stupor, somewhat sobered by the realization that even if we have made it this far we still have a long way to go. We continue along the trail (more blazes) for another hour before making camp. We can just about see the opening ahead where the river veers north into a broad meadow. We,ll surely reach it tomorrow. Joe builds a small fire from burned downfall and we settle in for a cold clear night. Day 9 dawns perfectly clear and still. A savage cold hangs in the air. The weather gods know that their snow machine is now more or less useless as we are out of the mountains and can keep going in just about any storm conditions. But maybe they can slow us down or at least make life just a bit uncomfortable with their cold machine. Either they got a brand new turbo-charged model for Christmas or some ace mechanic has given the old one a complete overhaul. The results are impressive. It,s in the )25 F range, which we,ve seen before, but this just feels really, really cold. Joe and I leave the sleeping bags and immediately start doing the cold weather war dance. This consists of jumping, hopping, running in place, swinging arms and legs, blowing on fingers ) anything to keep the blood flowing. The dance is an awkward enterprise to begin with, and the fact that the snow is completely unsupportable at our camp site doesn,t make things any easier. You can,t just roam around anywhere as one step on any snow we haven,t painstakingly packed down will result in a thigh deep plunge. Not what we need right now. We,ve each sculpted our own little platforms and stand watching each other flop and twist. Talking at this point is strictly forbidden, aside from the occasional obscenity or prehistoric grunt. Tra la la! Ah, Yellowstone! Even as we plow into the normal morning routine of making breakfast and breaking camp, the dance must continue. This makes for a haphazard on again off again kind of progress that would probably be humorous to watch if we weren,t living it. Everything happens in fits and starts. You can,t get out your stove, light it, and start melting some snow in one continuous process. By that time your hands would be frozen solid. You have to do one little thing, then rewarm. Do the next little thing, then rewarm. As it so happens, the cooking area we hastily set up the night before is wedged against the fire pit. There,s not much room for dancing in there. But dancing is mandatory, so I frantically pioneer a new traveling variation going back and forth between the cooking area and my platform. I go and set up the stove. Hands are now numb, so I head back to the dance platform, careful to only step on the few packed footprints that will support my weight on the way. Swing, hop, jump, blow, shake. Now there,s some feeling so it,s back to light the stove. Into the fire pit. I fill the stove,s primer cup with fuel. Where,s the lighter? I start searching zipped compartments in my jacket. Damn zippers. Can,t really operate them with gloves on. Not in that one. Hands are heading south fast. There,s the lighter. It,s in a ziploc bag. Struggle to open it. [ATTENTION! HANDS WILL BE FROZEN HARD AS WOOD IN 10 SECONDS!] I,m getting an alert from the engine room that I should head back to the dance platform, but I just want to get the damn lighter out at least on this run. Ziploc won,t open. [BEGIN COUNTDOWN! 10, 9, 8(] Got the lighter out! May as well try to start the stove while I,m here. [(7, 6, 5(] I flick it. Nothing. Shake it. [(4, 3, 2(] I take off my glove to work the lighter with my bare hand. Boy is it cold. It won,t light, though it now feels like my hand is on fire. Too late. [(1! ABORT! ABORT!] I cram my useless limb back in the glove and hobble over toward the dance floor. In my haste to get there I miss one of the packed footsteps. It,s as if I stepped into space. I plunge in to my thigh, and as I wasn,t expecting this at all and am caught completely off guard, I fall face first into the snow. Getting up isn,t easy because, again, there,s nothing to push solidly on to right myself except the packed spots, which have now been obscured by my floundering. It,s a full snow bath as I thrash around in the white stuff. Joe seems to be enjoying this. At last I get up. I pull my submerged leg out of the posthole, but my camp bootie catches and remains lodged three feet down. My socked foot comes out on its own and is instantly ice cold. I balance on my one foot that has a bootie, not wanting to have to step into the snow with my sock but pretty sure that,s going to happen. Somehow I get the wayward bootie back and put it on. On to the dance floor at last for some super charged disco movements. Time to get funky. And so the morning goes. The sun hits camp at about 8:30 am and the temperature leaps. We realize part of the trouble is that we,ve camped in a classic cold air sink right next to the river bottom. It,s taken longer than usual this morning to activate the 40 or 50 degree temperature swing we,ve come to expect. It,s going to get up to 25 F today. As we warm up we wonder what all the fuss was about. This is the day we make it out into the open. After several hours on the trail we reach the burned fringes of the first of several large meadows along the upper Yellowstone. The snow has been mixed, alternating between supportable and rotten junk. Through the burn it,s not too bad. We,re actually covering ground. Late in the afternoon when we try to head straight across the first open swath of flood plain we find out what bad snow is all about. It,s thigh deep junk. Each step goes right to the ground. We have to lean back on our skis to keep tips up lest they snag in the ample bushes. We,re snowshoeing, postholing on skis. The pace is excruciatingly slow. Looking behind us it appears we have shoveled a three foot deep trough through the meadow. We,re submarining along, still about 20 miles from Yellowstone Lake (and from the Lake it,s another 15 miles to the road) and have five days of food left. At the speed we are going now we could easily run out of food before we make it out. Our spirits, previously sky high, turn morbidly dark. Reaching the north side of the meadow, we decide to call it a day and resort to our favorite anti-depressant to lighten things up: fire. Joe starts hauling in entire trees. I begin excavating an enormous rectangular area for the fire and our camp. The snow is three feet deep, but I outline a 12 foot by 20 foot area and start digging. An hour and a half later we have ourselves an amazing pit beside a beautiful meadow. It is quite possibly the greatest camp site ever. And the sun is still up. Our moods swing 180 degrees again and we enjoy a long night of stoking the fire and eating. It,s such a beautiful night, we decide to just sleep out under the stars in our giant pit. It,s going to be another cold one. I wake up at 3:30am. My feet are going numb. I wish I had left a stove set up next to me so that I could cook a hot water bottle to put in my sleeping bag but I forgot. I,m conscious of a fiendishly powerful force that seeks to strip any warmth I have accumulated in my bag. It,s horrendous. Much too cold to even get up and try to put on more clothes or get warmer. I huddle and fiercely rub my feet together for the rest of the night. I don,t fall back asleep. This is all part of being admitted to the inner sanctum, I say to myself. The good news is that it isn,t storming. Because it,s brutally cold. Joe probably interprets my getting up at 7 am to build a fire as a weird sign. Something must be up. He,s done about all the fire building so far. I just gather wood. But here I am out of the bag breaking sticks and stacking them in a pyramid. I have waited as long as I can, and it,s now light out. I need to get warm and I know this is no ordinary morning. Not a cloud in the sky and dead calm. But it,s colder than usual. I can feel it. Before I even consult my little key chain thermometer I am fully prepared to swear that this is the coldest temperature I have ever experienced. I just know it is. When I check the thermometer it,s doing something I,ve never seen before. Whereas we are used to seeing it maxed out at )25 F or so, there is always a little bit of the red column protruding up from the ball at the bottom. Just a tiny bit, but enough to see that there is a slight rise above the ball. I always assumed that this was the max, that no matter how cold it got the thermometer would always look the same. I actually wished I had a better thermometer that wen lower just so we would know exactly how cold it really was. But this morning there is no red column above the ball. I look closely because it,s such a slight difference I could be wrong. But there is no mistaking it. Only the ball is red. Nothing above it. In my dementia I imagine that even some of the ball is empty. Yikes. I estimate by some mystical and completely unscientific method that it is at least )35 F. We later find out after exiting that on this morning it is )30 F at West Thumb on Yellowstone Lake. We are slightly higher than the lake but more importantly we are in a massive cold air sink with steep walls on all sides. It could well be even colder than )35 F where we are. Joe gets up and samples the brisk morning air. It,s too cold for the war dance. We have to get a fire going pronto. We opt for a &hot start8 and splash stove fuel on the wood to speed things up. Even white gas is a little ornery at this temperature and requires an open flame applied for several seconds to get a response. But once coaxed over the initial hump, it goes like crazy in no time. We spend the next two hours sitting very close to a raging fire. When the sun comes up it feels like a blow torch. We spread our sleeping bags out to thaw, and steam boils off of them. It,s the first real drying sun we,ve had this winter. Despite the inhuman cold, I know that spring is on the way For the next four days we continue down the Yellowstone River heading for Yellowstone Lake. Just beyond our camp with the swimming pool-sized fire pit the snow mysteriously turns supportable and we begin to fly. Each day our packs are lighter. The cold relents and it,s so hot during the afternoons that Joe takes off his shirt. Animals are everywhere. We,re just another two beasts roaming the valley floor (which is now several miles across). We might even smell worse than most of the other ones around. On these final days we hit our stride. This is what we came for. It,s about the most enjoyable time one could have on a wilderness ski trip. I don,t want it to end. For the moment, Yellowstone is ours. Mighty Thorofare Creek comes in from the east. We,ll have to come back another time to explore that universe. We hit the southern boundary of Yellowstone National Park. Not far now. We see wolf tracks. They,ve just been here ahead of us. We spend a day skiing past The Trident, a peak I,ve wanted to see for years. We,re in the home stretch, almost to the lake. Colter Peak goes by. We can see the lake. We arrive at the blank expanse of snow and ice, welcomed by two bison who look like they,ve been postholing as much as we have this year. The Southeast Arm of Yellowstone Lake. Day 13. It,s the last day to the road. We have something like 17 miles to ski to get to Lake Butte near the northeast end of Yellowstone Lake. That,s where the groomed road from the East Entrance comes in. I know we,ll be able to find a ride there around to the South Entrance, and from there we,ll hitch another ride back to Jackson, our home base. We take off like Norwegian nordic racers on the most supportable snow we,ve seen. We can even kick and glide and are really going for it. The weather is sitting on the fence at first. Looks like maybe the snow machine is sputtering into life, but then it dies. Must be out for maintenance. As we watch, Yellowstone Lake appears out of the clouds and we can see everything. All the way across. We see The Promontory, Frank Island, Dot Island, even West Thumb. This is my Park! We have talked about maybe trying to ski right across to West Thumb but are wary of open water. We stick to the eastern shore and rip past one point after another. By early afternoon the day has turned into a keeper. It,s sunny with hardly any wind. And we are loose on Yellowstone Lake like a bunch of criminals. Just having the time of our lives. We stop briefly when trading leads, otherwise it,s heads down hammering. But this is not a death march. This is pure joy. We feel invincible and want to see what we can do. After a winter of going slow, we want to push it home. The smell of the barn is overwhelming now. We can taste the finish line. And it,s only 3 PM! Sometime after rounding Park Point I glimpse Steamboat Point in the far distance. I recognize it and know where the road comes in. It can only be a few miles now. After passing Elk Point I start to go flat out. The movement feels good. I don,t know how long I can keep it up, but I,ll stick with it for now. Joe sees that it,s still about four miles to go and has the sense to maintain a normal pace. I can,t even feel my pack. Either I,ve done permanent spinal damage and have lost all feeling in my shoulders or I,ve learned how to pack light at last. Kick and glide! I can,t believe I,ve been missing this all those years I spent skiing on fixed heel gear! The snow hisses by. Home stretch now. One more small bay to cross and that,s it. I can see the road cut ahead. I feel like I could get airborne with a little more effort. A thundering final burst sees me to the line. That,s it. I,m there. I slide to a stop. All the cold, all the bad snow. It,s all been wiped away by the last four days. I want to start shouting. We made it! Yellowstone, my Yellowstone! Thorofare! I can,t even think, and luckily there is no need to. Joe comes in and we stand there resting. Then it,s time to go ashore. Just in time for a glorious sunset across the lake. Luck is with us and we get a ride out first thing in the morning as we had hoped. Driving back to Jackson, my thoughts race over the great landscape we have passed through. There are so many more trips to do, so much more to learn. But for a first time visit to Thorofare we,ve done pretty well. Not only did we get to the place itself, we got to the very heart of its spirit. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com - Leg04_V11.doc

In the Room Conference attended by all in-state generators, a few munies, the IOUs and a few others. One attorney from CPUC, but on phone. Barbara Barkovich attended for CA Large Consumers. Nader sent someone. No other consumers. One other ESP -- Strategic Energy (only operates in San Diego). Judge reports that only 6 offers have been submitted to FERC for sales to the IOUs (note; Enron submitted one of the offers). The offers total 2000 MW. The prices are quite divergent. He expresses concern at the little offered. Generators suggest that more could be offered if FERC could be more flexible on terms (FERC required 24/7 offers). IOUs and others press judge to seek offers from others not present (e.g., BPA, other marketers, SW utilities), but judge does not offer to do so. Barkovich says can't throw large customers into non-core market now. Everyone agrees that we are all looking for a blended wholesale rate (part existing gen, part OFs, part forward contract and part spot) that meshes with the IOUs' ability to recover the costs in rates -- so tied to CPUC rate increase. Discussion of CPUC PD -- not enough Enron able to take low profile. SDG&E suggested terminating the settlement talks at FERC, saying nothing could be achieved. Not much happens until 4:30 pm, when judge blows up -- judge directed epithets at SDG&E and SCE. SCE had refused to cooperate from the beginning. Out of the Room Separate talks between PG&E and SDG&E and some of the generators. Late in the day, Judge meets with IOUs. Parties agree informally that forum does not work well given lack of CPUC involvement, but some believe that FERC is only hope for a workable resolution. Next Steps -- The Judge Speaks Judge asked everyone to consider how to "Share the Pain" for Thursday's meeting and said not to expect any "win:win" scenario. His view is that FERC is better than the CA legislature or bankruptcy court. His focus will be on Wolak proposal to share the pain, as submitted in 12/1/00 comments to FERC -- forces all sellers to CA to sell most of its supply (either generation or marketer offers) as cost-based rates in forward contracts, or lose ability to sell at market-based rates. Generators oppose this, I believe. Enron planning to continue low profile but to discuss options with ENA.

Slocum and the Texas A&M Aggies are demanding a recount of the game in which Oklahoma won 35 to 31. "The end zones were confusing," says Slocum. "I'm sure that some of the touchdowns that went in Oklahoma's end zone were meant to go into ours. We were scoring in those end zones also. Oklahoma would never have scored thirty-five points. There's no way we lost this one. A&M demands a recount." Oklahoma officials are calling this "outrageous". "They agreed to the size, shape and locations of the end zones prior to kick-off," replies OU coach Bob Stoops. "If they had a problem with them, they should have said so before we started. You don't get to keep playing until you're happy with the outcome. Someone had to lose. We've scored over thirty-five points many times." A&M has sent lawyers, farmers, and those guys in the funny boots as well as that damn dog down to Kyle Field, where the scoreboard will be tested. "We are confident that when the points are re-totaled, we will be the winner of the game," says Slocum. OU also points out that in many games prior to this one, the same end zones were used. "They didn't have a problem with the end zones until they lost," says Stoops. Outside of Kyle Field, A&M student protesters have gathered outside bearing signs such as, "A&M wants a fair game! WHOOOOOOP!" Students' thoughts echoed their signs. "All we want is a fair total of the points before we declare a winner," says student Karen Hays, an aggie from Marfa. "We need to proceed cautiously and not rush to judgment before we declare a winner." ABC, around 2:00pm central time, had mistakenly declared A&M the winner, despite the slim 3 point lead the Aggies held at that point. At about 2:30 pm, with the game still to close to call, ABC had to back off its prediction. College football analyst Brent Musburger made the call. "We felt that with a number of points still not added in by Jamaar Tombs and the Aggies, we were certain A&M would carry this game. We may have been premature in our prediction."

well, i am back at work, although i hesitate to call it that. there is not much to do and basically we are waiting around to see what happens to the trading operations, which are supposed to be sold to an investment bank in a week or so. we'll see ... at first it was refreshing to not have anything to do and a welcome relief from the frenetic atmosphere i'm used to here, but now it's a challenge to find productive ways to fill the time and i don't work very long days. i had a good time back home, went thru my normal roller coaster of loving being back with my family, then feeling like i am going crazy and needing to leave the house for extended periods of time and then back to loving hanging out there. caught up with lots of friends and in general did very little for 2 weeks, which felt ok. it's been awhile since i've been away from my normal life for that long and it was refreshing. it feels good to be back, too. your schedule sounds very packed - maybe you would like to suggest a time/place that fits in? it's been forever since i've seen you and i would be up for anything: coffee, lunch, dinner, drinks, basically anything. take care, cooper -----Original Message----- From: "Johnston, Corinna" <[email protected]>@ENRON Sent: Friday, January 04, 2002 12:12 PM To: Richey, Cooper Subject: RE: Well I am in but not in.

What do you think of this? (sorry it isn't redlined yet) (b) Intra-Day Scheduling. Buyer may, upon at least four (4) Hours minimum advance notice to Seller, request changes to a Schedule by way of an Intra-Day Schedule Notice. Any such changes shall be in increments of at least 50 MW and may not exceed the Contract Capacity nor reduce the Schedule to less than four (4) Hours. If the Intra-Day Schedule Notice requires an increase in the Scheduled Energy per the Day-Ahead Schedule Notice, Seller shall, at its sole discretion determine whether to dispatch the Facility or provide Energy from Market Sources. Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Buyer with a price to accommodate Buyer,s Intra-Day Schedule Notice. Such price shall include lost profit from any transaction which would be cancelled in order to accommodate Buyer,s Intra-Day Schedule Notice, plus all additional costs (whether direct or indirect); provided, however, that such costs shall be limited to costs actually incurred by Seller (including cost of cover, penalties, liquidated damages, cancellation charges or the like due to another Person) with respect to (i) transactions entered into by Seller with other Persons prior to receipt of Buyer,s Intra-Day Schedule Notice (provided that such transactions and the terms thereof can be verified in an audit to be performed in accordance with Section 8.3, (ii) transactions that must be entered into by Seller in order to accommodate Buyer,s Intra-Day Schedule Notice or (iii) extra costs incurred in operating the Facility to accommodate such notice. For the avoidance of doubt, such costs shall not include Seller,s lost opportunity costs with respect to transactions that Seller may have been able to obtain but were not entered into by Seller prior to receipt of the Intra-Day Schedule Notice. If Buyer accepts Seller,s price, then the Schedule shall be revised to reflect the changes. If Seller is unable to accommodate Buyer,s Intra-Day Schedule Notice, such Hours shall not be included as Scheduled Energy for the purpose of determining the Forced Outage Rate. Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to resell any Energy not taken by Buyer due to a decrease in Energy pursuant to an Intra-Day Schedule Notice provided, however, that the revenues from any such sales will be offset against the additional costs to be charged to Buyer as provided in this Section 3.4(c).

Fred, Sounds "do able". Please contemplate what would be acceptable as "outs" for them and for us. A,lso, will you be getting RAC involved soon since we are contemplating a binding agreement in the near future? My best guess is that the LOI will be prepared in house, but I will discuss this with Carlos, and we will advise K & S of their role. Thanks, Kay Fred Mitro@ECT 02/12/2001 01:48 PM To: Kay Mann/Corp/Enron@Enron cc: Rusty Stevens/Corp/Enron@ENRON, Scott Healy/SF/ECT@ECT, Ben Jacoby/HOU/ECT@ECT Subject: PSEG Request Kay: I talked with PSEG this morning. PSEG would like to negotiate and sign a binding LOI regarding the Kendall project site in Illinois prior to negotiating and executing the Definitive SPA. The specifics of this LOI are: PSEG would pay an up-front $300,000 payment to ENA This payment would be non-refundable unless PSEG discovered a "fatal flaw" in the project (we will have to carefully define this concept) The binding LOI would establish a date by which the SPA would be executed or PSEG would forfeit the up-front payment The $2.7 MM balance of the Purchase Price would be due upon closing (signing the SPA and transferring the member interests). I believe that PSEG is getting nervous that we may close on the Kendall LLC with another Buyer before they get their act together. Call me to discuss the timing of drafting such an LOI. I would like to strike on PSEG while they are anxious and motivated. My goal is to send the LOI to PSEG by Wednesday of this week. I can work directly with Carolyn if that is the most efficient approach. Fred

Lucy, #32 and #29 are fine. #28 paid weekly on 1/5. Then he switched to biweekly. He should have paid 260 on 1/12. Two weeks rent in advance. Instead he paid 260 on 1/19. He either needs to get back on schedule or let him know he is paying in the middle of his two weeks. He is only paid one week in advance. This is not a big deal, but you should be clear with tenants that rent is due in advance. Here is an updated rentroll. Please use this one instead of the one I sent you this morning. Finally, can you fax me the application and lease from #9. Phillip

Click the Enroll button to sign up for a class. The cost is $250. 3. Will old XMS expense reports be converted to the new Concur Expense system?

Davette, Greeting to you in the name of my Lord and Savior Jesus! This is the letter that I spoke of that was sent to me this morning from one of the ladies at my church. She also forwarded this message to several other women outside of our church. I want you to read it because I believe that it will encourage you to trust God if you are not and hold tight if you are because the effectual fervent prayers of the righteous do avail much. Like I breifly stated earlier, I will have my prayer ministry group pray for you tonight and we will keep on praying for you until I hear you tell me ALL is well. We try to meet every Monday night to pray over special prayer request that we have received along with praying for the needs our families, friends, church, government and even our enemies. Our meeting start at 7pm but we really don't get started praying until 8pm so if you want to touch and agree with us around that time that would be great. We're all in this together if you hurt we hurt. : ) I am writing to each of you because I need you to be in prayer with me this week. For the past two months, I have been going to the doctor, because of a lump I found under my arm. As a result of that I have had to have a mammogram and an ultrasound of my breast. Both test came back abnormal and I am seeing a specialist this week to determine if I need to have a biopsy or not. Since God has given me the task of doing a mighty work for him the devil has been busy. I trust and believe that God will heal. God gave me a revelation several months ago that ALL IS WELL since that time, my husband and I have reunited our family, we have been blessed tremendously in more ways than I can share with you at this time, however, in the midst of those blessings, the devil has gotten mad. So he has decided to try and pull me down once again. I refuse to be brought down off this spiritual high that is truly a blessing from God. That is why I am calling on all you prayer warriors I need you to be in prayer with me this week. I see the specialist on Thursday and I will know then if I need to have the biopsy. God Bless Each of you and Season's Greetings Love Marylyn ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!

Beth, Thanks for your e-mail. This will put us in agreement. I have incorporated our changes as discussed in the following revised Section 13. If you are in agreement, I will prepare execution documents. Section 13 is further modified by inserting the following new Section 13.10: Enron recognizes that, when NEGM is acting as Buyer hereunder, NEGM is purchasing gas on behalf of certain gas companies (the &Repurchasers8) to whom it immediately resells such gas at the Delivery Point(s). The parties further agree that the term &Transporter8 when used in this Contract, including, but not limited to, in Sections 4 and 11., shall include any company acting in the capacity of a transporter for any Repurchaser and agree that Section 4.3 of the Contract will apply to invoices from such Transporters for Imbalance Charges received from such Transporters to the same extent as if such invoices were received by NEGM provided, that all parties scheduled and nominated the same volumes as Enron and NEGM scheduled and nominated on hehalf of such Repurchaser at the Delivery Point(s).

I made a mistake and put comments for another person into Krishnar's PRC. Please make sure that you ignore it if I can't get it fixed. Below is what I intended to put in. My apologies. I will get my assistant to get it deleted and put this information in on monday. It won't let me do it now. I guess it does not pay to leave 30 or 40 reviews to the last day. Paula: Please fix this for me and let Vince know either that it is fixed or cannot be fixed. Innovation/Entrapraneurship No Basis Communicating Goal Setting No Basis Team Work / Communication Excellent. Very easy to work with and get along with. Business Instincts Excellent. Krishnar is consistent in asking to help out and asking what more he could do to help us out. Analystical Technical Excellent. Krishnar has a very strong grasp of what we are doing and how it should be done. Overall Excellent. My interactions with Krishnar have been limited but positive. Krishnar is always positive with a positive attitude to get the job done. Strengths: Very strong analytical skills with a desire to add value. Areas for Improvements I don't understand Krisnar's role (is leading all research people on our floor or just some) well and have had limited interaction with him. {all has been positive when it has ocurred} This suggests that Krishnar might spend more time define what his people are doing and getting feedback about their performance, and developing the project scope better.

Attached is a quick blurb on the major protests filed in the PGE/Sierra merger. There's good news and bad news. The good news is that there were only a couple of significant protests filed. The bad new is that the protests are quite significant. In addition to the two protests Adam addresses, there was a protest filed by the Nevada Public Service Commission, and an additional protest filed by Truckee Donner. The Nevada Attorney General's Bureau of Consumer Protection also filed a brief protest. We are getting a copy of the rest of the protests now and will have a more detailed summary of all of the protests early next week. Adam has been in touch with the Scadden attorneys and Peter Fox-Penner, the economic consultant who performed the Appendix A market power analysis. We will be working closely with them to develop an answer to the protests. Answers are due on May 18. Please call me if you have any questions.

----- Forwarded by Jeff Dasovich/NA/Enron on 05/29/2001 04:35 PM ----- "Costigan, Richard" <[email protected]> 05/29/2001 04:32 PM To: cc: Subject: Appeal court ruling on Burton-Hertzberg Appeals court declines to order energy price caps Updated: May 29, 2001 - 12:22 p.m. SAN FRANCISCO -- A federal appeals court declined Tuesday to order federal energy regulators to cap wholesale electricity prices. The decision by a three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals came hours before California Gov. Gray Davis was to urge President Bush in Century City to cap wholesale power costs, which have been spiraling out of control. The panel, in a brief statement, said last week's appeal by state Senate President John Burton and state Assembly Speaker Robert Hertzberg does not warrant "intervention of this court." The lawmakers, both Democrats, were joined by the city of Oakland in their appeal to the 9th Circuit. "The citizens of California are suffering immediate irreparable harm as a result of FERC's abrogation of its duty to establish just and reasonable rates for electricity," they wrote to the 9th Circuit, which has jurisdiction over FERC. The lawmakers said California's looming threat of continued blackouts "are an imminent threat to the health, welfare and safety of every California citizen." The suit came after more than a year of wholesale power prices reaching historically high levels. In December, prices in California reached $200 per megawatt hour -- and they have skyrocketed to as much as $1,900 per megawatt hour during peak times since then. The Bush administration ardently opposes price caps and President Bush has declined Davis' requests to urge FERC to impose strict caps. Vice President Dick Cheney, chief architect of the administration's energy plan, has said capping prices would not increase energy supplies or reduce demand. "We get politicians who want to go out and blame somebody and allege there is some kind of conspiracy ... instead of dealing with the real issues," Cheney has said. Cheney criticized Davis, a Democrat, for what he called a "harebrained scheme" to use the state's budget surplus to buy power because California's two largest utilities face enormous financial problems. For the short term, the Bush administration has approved Davis' request to expedite permits for new power plants and has ordered federal facilities in California to reduce energy consumption 10 percent this summer. Sacramento and the White House appear locked in a high-voltage war of rhetoric over energy policies. There is broad bipartisan dissatisfaction in Sacramento with Washington's response to California's energy crisis -- the result of its own 1996 deregulation rules. Last month FERC did order a one-year cap on electricity sold into California during power emergencies, when power reserves fall below 7 1/2 percent. The agency did not set a price and also required the state to join a regional transmission organization, which could limit California's ability to control its own power grid. Davis called the plan a "Trojan horse," and state power regulators dismissed the cap as inadequate, saying it would profit power generators at ratepayers' expense. In addition, Davis and state lawmakers sharply criticized FERC for considering requiring the state's power grid operator to add a surcharge on power sales to pay generators the money they are owed by the state's two large financially strapped utilities. The case is Burton v. Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 01-70812. -- Associated Press Richard Costigan, III Chief of Staff Office of the Assembly Republican Leader California State Assembly Phone:(916) 319-2005

This change is effective immediately and replaces our current tag line of "Natural gas. Electricity. Endless possibilities." To achieve our goal of a unified Enron brand, each employee has the responsibility to make the Enron image a consistent and strong identity. This is partially accomplished through correct application of the logo and tag line. A revised Corporate Identity Guidelines Book has been developed to assist you in following the correct standards. You may obain a copy of this new book by completing a Forms Request and ordering Item #42629. These guidelines will also be made available electronically on the Brand Site at home.enron.com. We'd like to take this opportunity to remind all of you about the importance of maintaining a consistent look, especially with our stationery and business cards. It has come to our attention recently that some employees are having these items produced by outside vendors and are not following the established guidelines. This must stop immediately. Please use the internal resources available to you for these items. They will ensure that all guidelines are followed correctly and consistently. If you have questions on how to get these items or on the guidelines, you may contact Marge Nadasky in Corporate Identity at [email protected]. One name, one company....one Enron. Our recent reorganization brings us another step closer to realizing this goal. Please make sure you do your part to protect and strengthen the Enron brand around the world.

Lad, In keeping with Section 1.1.3.10 of the settlement regarding direct connect the following changes need to be made. PG7 Line 12 needs to be changed from "Delivery points are defined as the local transmission system, storage, receipt point pools, and the city gate pool." to "Delivery points include the local transmission system, storage, receipt point pools, and the city gate pool." PG7 Line 20 "Local Transmission user facilities are not to access and deliver gas supplies from receipt points." needs to be eliminated. Parties agreed to put this battle off until later. Testimony should not give any preference to one side or the other. These changes move the arguments to the center.

Changing counterparty names on Sitara deal tickets has absolutely no impact to any downstream processes. I hope the following will give more clarification. Let me know if you have any questions or need more detail! Thanks, dg 3-9517 Sitara / Unify - Process * Scenario - Counterparty name changes on Sitara deal ticket after deal had been pathed, scheduled & bridged back from Unify. * Impact - zero impact to Logistics & Volume Management, absolutely harmless. Settlements has process in place to eliminate issues. * Process - Counterparty A in Sitara changes to Counterparty B. Ctprty A was on original path sent to pipeline. The new name (ctprty B) does bridge over to Unify. Ctprty A remains at the path level in Unify (gui display does not change) Ctprty B is now displayed at the deal level in Unify. The field is now highlighted to indicate a change occurred. (gui display changes only at high level, not on path) The Scheduler has choice to repath (if necessary), or not re-path If re-pathing occurs, the new counterparty name will be displaced on new path Unify pushes back the deal number & meter to Sitara (not ctprty info) Balancing works on deal number & meter only (not ctprty info) The confirmation desk utilizes the information in Sitara (where all information is correct) Volume Management utilizes the information in Unify for pipeline tie-out. (all information sent to pipeline is correct at the path level and will match up perfectly) Settlements utilizes information in Unify. Settlements recognizes that changed ctprty names changes contracts, which would create two notification entries If invoice did happen to go out to wrong ctprty, re-draft would occur. (note: there was an issues discovered on reports which IT is correcting now) Autonoms "Tom's words of warning" - Previously there was an issue when counterparty name changes took place after deals were pathed and nominated. Basically it would change a key on an EDI path (duns number) not affecting any other of the information already nominated to the pipeline. If the scheduler re-nominated, data at the pipeline would get doubled up and the scheduler would have NO way to correct the problem. In most cases, the schedulers would have to get the pipeline to manually cut the original nominated volume. This is not an issue with Unify (as explained above).

This change went in for the Deal Validation group. It gives them the ability to change counterparties names after bridge back. Impact to Logistics - Unify If a counterparty name change takes place to deals that have been bridge backed, it could cause problems on EDI pipes as that new counterparty name will flow over to Unify and repathing should eventually take place. One problem may be with the Imbalance data sets, which are not in production yet......(EDI Imbalance Qtys would not match up to paths) This may also cause an issue with the scheduled quantities (especially where nominations were sent for entire month) can't remember the rules on this one, but I think Unify does have some safe guards (idiot proofs) to force re-pathing. Unify does have the ability to over-ride duns numbers, yet would still cause an additional step for EDI the scheduler would need to think through in order to get a clean quick response. What are (if any) impacts to Vol Mgt if counterparty name changes take place? (prior periods? re-pathing?) I have a call into Diane and Dave both. After speaking w/ them, hopefully I can get a clear understanding of the true impact. I am sure we'll need to put some processes and procedures together for Deal Validation to follow when these type of changes are needed. Will keep you posted.

Some pipelines do not allow us to change counterparties after there is feedback - I assume for the same reasons we had this rule - it used to blow up our old scheduling systems (pre-UNIFY). Some pipelines will require a new deal and we will have to zero out the old deal. Before you make the change - make sure the logistics person is aware - just in case it causes problems with their pipeline. Sorry - I don't know which pipes these are - you will have to ask the UNIFY team. There is one rule still in place - you can change from ENA-IM East to ENA-IM Market East - but not from ENA-IM Texas to HPLC-IM HPLC - when changing business units - they must be the same legal entity. "Warning - not the same legal entity" Also - beware of making contract and counterparty changes to Service deals (Transport Capacity, Storage, Cash Out). Once the deal is invalidated - there are no rules. Don't forget - the items were locked down for a reason. If you invalidate a service deal - and change the previously locked down data that was validated - and someone used these deals in UNIFY - it is highly likely that the UNIFY deals and paths created using these deals will get corrupted. Always check with someone from UNIFY to make sure no one used these deals for anything in UNIFY. ---------------------- Forwarded by Thomas Engel/HOU/ECT on 04/05/2000 09:47 AM --------------------------- From: Scott Mills on 04/04/2000 07:38 PM To: Kathryn Cordes/HOU/ECT@ECT, Dana Daigle/Corp/Enron@ENRON, Elizabeth L Hernandez/HOU/ECT@ECT, Julie Meyers/HOU/ECT@ECT, B Scott Palmer/HOU/ECT@ECT, Stephanie Sever/HOU/ECT@ECT, Dianne J Swiber/HOU/ECT@ECT cc: Steve Jackson/HOU/ECT@ECT, Thomas Engel/HOU/ECT@ECT, Sylvia A Campos/HOU/ECT@ECT, Linda S Bryan/HOU/ECT@ECT, Faye Ellis/HOU/ECT@ECT, Donna Consemiu/HOU/ECT@ECT Subject: Sitara Release (Re: Changes in Global due to Consent to Assignment) With the release that was put out Tuesday evening, Deal Validation should be able to change the counterparty on deals where the volume is something other than expected (e.g. confirmed, nominated, scheduled, etc.).

US Legal would have no problem doing business with a Connecticut limited liability company (subject, of course, to Credit approval). There are some legal considerations with respect to certain products. In order to trade any financial products the counterparty would have to meet the U.S. "eligible swap participant" standards (which sets certain asset and net worth levels) and to trade U.S. power they would need to have a FERC license. Otherwise, we have no problem with limited liability companies.

Cc: Lavorato, John Subject: David Woodstrom Hunter, As I mentioned this morning, since Zach McCarroll turned down the offer we would like to explore the possibility of keeping David Woodstrom on the IT team to fill the open position. The Fundamentals IT team has been cut to a minimum support staff, and the addition of David would facilitate more development of fundamentals content. David has been focusing on the operational capacity reporting (morning ops reports) by creating better ways to access the operational data (real time query tool vs. standard reports). David also has been responsible for maintenance and development of the commodity fundamentals website since he joined the group in early 2000. He built and maintains the current message board system used by gas trading and as well as the critical notice alerts for pipelines. He has also worked closely with the West desk and Portland on various real time load and outage reports.

John, Wes called me and told me about your desire to remove the 25 MW Brazil trade from the "books" retroactively. The reason given was tax implications. I accepted the tax need at face value and want to do what is right for the company. However, we (Remi and I) would like to talk to you about the P&L implications of doing this. I assume we keep the P&L on the internal scorecard but need to work out the details on how this gets reflected. Thanks, Kish

Here is a report on current Muni deals in the west. 1. Grant County PUD: (Washington) we have orally agreed (no signed confirms) to two identical deals, each calls for us to deliver power to Grant during year one and for Grant to deliver us power and money in year 4 or 5. Our effort to get an opinion from them that these deals have been properly authorized has foundered badly. We have the classic situation of a PUD whose procedural practice does not fit with the statute. They are irritated to have this pointed out to them and so far, unwilling to go back and fix their practices for fear of embarassment before the Board. Delicate, complex, difficult mess. Pat Boylston of Stoel Rives helping. 2. Clatskanie: (Oregon) We have done a deal ( signed confirms and EEI soon to be signed) whereby we deliver Clatskanie power in year 1, for which we receive a monthly payment which is roughly akin to a contract price, and they deliver us power in year 5. We have every expectation of receiving a satisfactory legal opinion from them when they return the signed EEI agreement. 3. EWEB: (Oregon) We have done a deal (being documented as a swap by the swap group) which I believe is a five year deal. The deal was originally conceived as being a physical transaction. We received satisfactory documentation about authorization from EWEB for the physical transaction, but when it switched over to being a swap at the last minute, and Sara subsequently reviewed the authorization issue, her conclusion was that we were not satisfied with what EWEB had shown us. I have gotten Pat Boylston to get EWEB to promise to give us a Board resolution in a couple of weeks addressing the financial risk concern. 4. Valley Coop. (Nevada) We have recently done a 4 year vanilla commodity sale to Valley and are in the process of checking out their authorization to do longer term deals. We have a services agreement with them whereby we are their SC for load balancing purposes involving the California market. A question has arisen as to whether or not certain sales we make to them as part of this arrangement may generate revenue for them in excess of 15%, if so, perhaps putting their tax exempt status as a muni in jeopardy. It is a tax, accounting issue. Pat Boylston of Stoel Rives is helping us sort it out. 5. LMUD (California) City of Lassen. We are trying to do a long term sale of power to them. Attempts to check out authorization have run into a complex, California municipality statute and a small town lawyer and we are presently stalled out. Sandy Skaggs of McCutcheon Doyle is helping as best he can. The commercial deal died its first death yesterday but rigor mortis is not complete and we may have to revive authorization efforts. 6. Tracy Ngo has given us a long list of munis, prioritized as to our credit exposure to them. Presumably I am busy checking all of the most serious ones out and making sure we have proper authorizations. In fact, I have done nothing with this because I am busy with other immediate priorities. Pat Boylston of Stoel Rives and Sandy Skaggs of McCutcheon Doyle are providing very valuable service in this area. They are both very good at dealing with these muni type folks and, with the exception of Grant, (and not because of Pat, who has been great) have gotten fairly good results so far.----cgy

Paul Voigt from Jefferies (00 1 203 708 5800) showed us a bid of $2.25 several days ago. The bid now may be $1.50 only due to size of the holding & illiquidity in the name. We've discussed selling this position with Mike Breughel & Alexander Sheers at Bear Stearns, and Alexander has asked for you to talk to Bears directly. Can you call Alex & ask if one of the Bears prime brokers can contact Jefferies to execute the trade, and also to arrange for the proceeds to be paid back to our Citibank account in London. Thanks Simon
