The approval process initiated in 1998 for all meeting and event expenditures
in excess of $5,000 has enabled ENA to better assess the business value of
events, accurately track our activities and save money. These events include
customer and employee meetings, and trade shows.
ENA has made some modifications to the process, which are described in this
memo.
The $5,000 threshold remains in effect for all customer events. However, the
threshold for approval for employee meetings and events has been lowered to
$2,000, and some additional requirements must be met prior to approval.
Please be sure to follow the procedures described below for all meetings and
events, so we can continue to successfully manage these events.
1) Prior to making any commitments to customers or vendors, all customer
events with anticipated costs in excess of $5,000, and all employee events
with anticipated costs in excess of $2,000 must be reviewed by the ENA Public
Relations (PR) department and approved by the ENA Office of the Chairman
2) The PR department will handle the site search and hotel contract
negotiations for all such events. Once this is completed, the PR department
will work with you to plan and produce your event in its entirety; or they
can provide as much or as little assistance as you require. The PR department
will be responsible for helping you achieve the best value for your program
and ENA.
3) A completed expenditure request form (see attached) and supporting
documentation is required for each event. Employee meetings require a
detailed agenda as part of the event documentation prior to approval. Please
submit the completed expenditure request form and documentation to the PR
department at EB 3642, or work with PR department employees to complete the
form.
4) After PR review, the expenditure will be submitted to the ENA Office of
the Chairman for final approval.
Additionally, the PR department can assist in the procurement of tickets for
various local sporting events and concerts.
If you have any questions regarding this process, would like assistance
planning an event, or need tickets for a Houston event, please contact Dorie
Hitchcock in the PR department at (713) 853-6978.
Thank you for your cooperation.

I agree with the delegation except for Chris Dorland. Tim Belden needs to determine who validates the West Power curves. With respect to vol curves, Steve Wang and Rob Stalford need to validate.
What time period are we validating?

I will have that to you by the end of the afternoon. I have set aside my afternoon to complete the timeline and resource needs, rewrite the presentation to originators, recap our Monday morning meeting on commercialization efforts for this week, work on my game plan for EES and get with Bob Hall to do an update for Brian Redmond on the HPL sale before his Tueday meeting with Louise. I will share these items with you as I get them checked off my list this afternoon. --Sally

So far, we have not done any further testing on ConfirmLogic since early last week when we encountered the problems with the volume and price displays. Kathryn called me late on Friday and said that they would let us know when we can resume testing. We have not heard from them this morning.
Their demo last Thursday for the Beta Clients went well. The customers that participated in the demo were Reliant, Dynegy, Calpine, and Sempra (Sempra participated via Video Conference from Enron's New York Office.) Dynegy immediately said that they were very interested and I heard that Reliant called back and expressed their interest as well.
I will keep you posted on any further developments.

wants to be sure that the people on the list above are comfortable with the

Can you please review the changes made by Susan Chang at Microsoft to the SQL
2000 SP1 JDP MOU for our Unify application. Bob Ward is out of the office
until June 4th, and this application is going into production on June 11th.
We need to ensure the MOU is finalized and signed prior to going into
production so that we can receive the appropriate support from Microsoft when
we go live.
If you need to contact Susan her telephone number is 425-703-6394. Her email
is [email protected].
Thanks for your immediate attention to this matter,

Bob and Corinna,
Here are the versions of the MOU your lawyer will need to review. As
expected, some of the items just did not make the bar to warrant a
change. Specifically:
an actual date for the released product will not go on the MOU.
Customers who particpate in the JDP have a high degree of touch and
disclosure with MS. Although we are glad to discuss dates and they draw
near with the customer we do not promise anything from the beginning
(though this hardly matters now considering the date).
The line in #4 that was cut and pasted to #17 has been placed back in
#4. This is due to the placement of the topic in #4. The rest of #17,
specifically stating that there is NO COST TO THE CUSTOMER has been left
in on #17, and I'll probably incorporate this for future use. It is a
good addition.
#10 on Microsoft's section has been removed. It is clearly rednundant
and not necessary. We already say there is absolutely no cost to the
customer.
If this is agreeable (I have included the red lined version, so your
lawyers can review), the final version with those changes have also been
included. Please print, sign and return.
Thanks!
JamMo!

Janine -
I have speaking with the FX desk about the status o the roll-out of the
Currency Exchange products on EnronOnline, and apparently they are a little
frustrated; they continue to reiterate that what they are trying to
accomplish Online is the same kind of transactions that they currently do
over the phone.
That being the case, I asked for an example of a Confirmation of such a
transaction. Attached please find a confirmation between RMT and ETRIC dated
July 10, 2000. Laurel Adams of the FX documentation unit explains that Trena
McFarland, a trader in the UK, regularly does non-proprietary FX transactions
on the behalf of RMT. Laurel has been assured that this is appropriate, but
we a re unable to locate any clear 'policy' or 'instruction' in this regard.
So, we either have a situation where this issue is being handled
inappropriately on the FX desk and needs to be corrected for their OTC

information that is missing from the equation we are trying to solve for.
I think it goes without saying that, whatever the case, we at EOL will follow
the lead given by our Tax and Legal Departments - and I would hope that we
will find a quick, AND FINAL, resolution.

It's not looking good to come visit you this summer. Deb is moving into her
new house sometime during th end of July and then she promised to take her
nieces and nephews on vacation sometime this summer. I think we are going to
try for next spring or summer to come visit you if the offer is still open..
Sorry- I'm sure you are disappointed. However, if something changes, we will

Monika, I found the Jacobs-Sirrine proposal on the fiber study; you can get a copy from me.
They included a matrix on which they would display various fiber characteristics, which I'm attaching. << File: Fiber Morphology.xls >> Cecil and I went over it and he suggested some changed, which are incorporated here. The only one he wants to add that isn't reflected here---but which we need to tell them---is that we want to know why each quality parameter (the column headings) is important to each major end-use (paper grade) application.
Let's go over this Monday morning.

Subject: Commodities Legislation
Mark: just a "heads up" that we may be called to react to this attached
NYMERX press release since Enron added the provisions they oppose in the
release. H.R. 4541 passed the House 377-4 last evening and Enron strongly
supports the legislation (I will e-mail Ken Lay's letter to Chairman Combest
which expresses our support plus some talking points for your information.)
There is a real opportunity to enact this legislation this Congress. The
last deal which needs to be cut is with Senator Gramm (he is the only
obstacle to enactment in the Senate.) The "Energy Provisions" discussed in
this press release are NOT IN PLAY and will not be changed in the Senate. It
is other provisions which do not directly affect Enron which are being
negotiated.
Contrary to this release's statement, no House member (other than one member
who didn't make it for the vote,Congressman Baker) is asking for changes in
the Senate. The overwhelming numbers speak for themselves. All and all,
this press release is outlandish.
This will be our highest priority next week and changes occur by the hour.
Please call if you do indeed get press calls and need our assistance. Many
thanks.
EXCHANGE EXPRESSES OUTRAGE AT HOUSE PASSAGE OF H.R. 4541
NEW YORK, NY, October 20, 2000 -- In response to passage by the House of
Representatives last night of H.R. 4541, the Commodity Futures
Modernization Act of 2000, New York Mercantile Exchange Chairman Daniel
Rappaport issued the following statement:
The New York Mercantile Exchange finds it particularly egregious
that, by approving subsection (g) (3) of Section 106, the House would
not only remove the energy and metals marketplaces from public scrutiny
and regulatory oversight, but also do this in a fashion that
discriminates between established markets versus start-up electronic
forums.
It is particularly outrageous, at a time when every U.S. consumer is
feeling the impact of high energy prices, to allow lobbying by a small
group of vested interests to influence Congress to take these markets
out of the public eye and create an advantage for people to trade on
private, proprietary systems lacking the protections of a neutral
self-regulatory organization. Policy makers, regulators, and the
American public will be deprived of currently available information on
market participation, concentration, and financial performance.
This is not only a matter of ill-conceived public policy but is also
anti-competitive and directly contrary to the recommendations made by
the President'sWorking Group on financial markets.
Even House members who voted in favor of the bill have been publicly
quoted as saying that it must be changed in the Senate.
The New York Mercantile Exchange plans to fight adamantly at the Senate
level to demand that this subsection either be eliminated or be amended
to create a consistent regulatory policy for electronic and open outcry
markets.

Beth Bentivoglio just called. She is sending the last two books in the Narnia

Other ideas:
CD's by the group "Bewitched" I think there may be 2 or 3 (according to
Katie). Her first choice is "Bewitched", the first CD.
A "blow pen" set. It would be in the artwork area of toy stores--they are
pens that you blow the ink out of onto stencils to make pictures.
Picked the names yet? Missed you at Nancy's.
And, we would be delighted to host Christmas here. Looking forward to it.

Hello again,
If these contracts are going to be assigned immediately to Mitsui, isn't the
issue of a guaranty a Mitsui issue? Is this addressed in the EPC contracts?
If an Enron entity must give a guaranty, I would think we would want ENA to
give it, to be replaced by a Mitsui guaranty unless we have some safeguard
against the possibility of paying Mitsui and Mitsui not paying GE, so that we
would have to pay twice.

Thanks. The changes to the on & off-shore contracts are OK.
I have replied to an e-mail from Kay concerning the "letter agreement", of

Kay indicated that the consolidation agreement would be today's focus of
attention. I have not seen any feedback pursuant to my 1/Jun/00 e-mail.

Your comment about the parent company guaranty reminds me that the above

Importance: high
X-Priority: 1
X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2651.58)
Brian,
Here are my comments on several items.
* The consolidation agreement.
* In 1.b, thanks for reflecting the GE suggestion. However, near the
end of the paragraph, the word "remedy" should move to immediately after
"exclusive".
* In 8, the reference should be to paragraph 10.a, not 11.a.
* In 10.a, it does not look like the wording in my 30/May/00 e-mail
was picked up.
* In 12 and 13, Enron has added new wording since the preceding
issuance of this document.
* In 13, is all of this wording necessary and applicable. At the end
of the first long sentence, the word "turnkey" is used. Of course, this is
an equipment supply contract for GE.
Also, I believe the contracts do state what is in GE
scope via clauses 1.27, 1.86 and 3.1. So, the last sentence is redundant.
* More importantly, these two clauses could be interpreted as
establishing a GEPS/GEIOC consortium. This is something GE had advocated as
the approach in as single contract for tax purposes in Mexico. GE can still
go either way, although the single document approach is more straightforward
(and that is what we initialed in your offices last month). Enron wanted
split contracts. These clauses may undo what Enron was attempting to
achieve in this regard.
* In 14, which has been added by Enron in the latest version of the
consolidation agreement, the GE entities seem to be prevented from getting
an extension of time under one contract if there is a problem with
performance under the other. This is contrary to the words in the former
Enron clause 5, which has now been eliminated. This clause 14 should be
removed.
* Regarding the "swap" payments for tax purposes, to benefit both
Enron and GE:
* The amount paid to date on the Monterrey unit, under the MOU, is
$25,101,733. What GE proposes it to:
* Revise the payment schedule for the contracts such that payments
totaling this amount are due 2-3 days after contract signing.
* Execute a separate letter, to be signed at the same time as the
contracts, formally dissolving the MOU. The letter would call for GE to
refund this same amount 2-3 days after receipt of the payment under the
contracts.
We need to draft this letter, which will
hopefully be one page. The text of such a letter could include the
following wording:
"Pursuant to clause 30.3 of the now executed
On and Off Shore contracts for this project, the MOU dated ______ is made
null and void. Once the initial payment(s) called for in said contracts
have been made, the monies in the amount of $25,101,733.00, which were paid
under the MOU will be refunded to (Enron entity)."
* This would get the monies to the appropriate Enron and GE entities.
In a related matter, since the legal Enron entity has
changed, GE requests a parent guarantee (using form already shown in the
contract(s)).
Regards,
Jeff Smith

Memo
Thanks very much for your memo Paul it is very helpful. I attach below for
completeness the To Do list put together by Elena in order to put Credit on
EnronOnline.
There are two remaining issues which require further thought:-
1. How do we want to display Credit on a long term basis on EnronOnline.
For the short term, we can put credit out there but the number of updates
will be restricted. Using Jay's best guess on a slow network connection the
initialization process will take upto 4 minutes and on a normal connection
250 updates every 30 seconds would prevent people from trading. So we do
have some scaling issues? Our model doesn't really function for simultaneouse
changing of hundreds of products so really we need to actually get a much
better specific on how many updates you envisage. Do you really envisage
that many updates? Also we haven't yet experienced fast updates which we
will do when FX joins the system.
2. We have approximately 4000 guest id and passwords? Can these see credit
pricing from a due diligence perspective.
Elena will be leaving the EnronOnline group at the end of this week and Mark
Dilworth will be our main point of contact in Dave's absence. Any questions
please do not hesitate to call me (713 853 3488).

Subject: Credit Trading OnLine - Results of Legal Due Diligence and Risk Memo
NOTE - GIVEN THE PROPOSED LAUNCH DATE OF 24 JANUARY 2000 FOR THIS PRODUCT,
THIS NOTE IS INTENDED TO SERVE BOTH AS A SUMMARY OF THE RESULTS OF OUR LEGAL
DUE DILIGENCE AND AS A RISK MEMO
As you know, we have carried out legal due diligence in the eight countries
where it was intended the credit product would initially be traded via
EnronOnLine - namely, the UK, the US, Canada, Finland, Germany, Norway,
Sweden and Switzerland. Under the terms of the credit product, on the
occurrence of a bankruptcy with respect to a specified third party (the
Reference Entity) the Seller of the product (which could be either Enron or
its online counterparty) will pay a fixed, pre-agreed cash sum in an agreed
currency to the Buyer. (It should be borne in mind that this product differs
in a number of ways from the more conventional credit derivatives traded in
the international markets. This means that a change in the nature or terms of
our product or the introduction of alternative credit products will likely
change the analysis below.)
Set out below is an overview of where we have come out on the more
significant legal issues. I am also attaching a two page "Executive Summary
of Legal Advice" prepared by outside counsel which highlights the significant
legal issues/risks in each country and which should be read in conjunction
with this note mail. As you will see, the Executive Summary does not focus on
issues we raised which are "all clear" from a legal perspective, so as to
keep the summary to a sensible length (but there was plenty of good news
too!). Where a legal issue has been identified, I have either set out below
what action is to be taken, or not addressed it further on the basis that, on
the advice of foreign counsel, the risk is not very substantial or unlikely
to materialise. Therefore, where no comment is made below in relation to a
risk highlighted in the attached summary, please assume that the legal risk
is one which, in our view, it is reasonable to take.
A. Countries in which the credit product can be traded in January 2000
Finland, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, UK, US
B. Countries in which launch of the product via EnronOnline will need to be
delayed
Canada, Germany (reasons set out below)
C. General Issues (applicable in all countries)
The credit product is fundamentally different from the usual energy and
related products we trade and so gives rise to new or increased legal risks
of a general nature:
(i) Capacity - We will not be able to assume generally that our
counterparties will have the legal power and authority necessary to trade the
product and so will need to check each counterparty's constitutional
documents before allowing them to trade the product online. This applies to
almost all entities (eg corporates, municipalities, insurance companies) in
all countries. Some entities may lack the power to trade under the general
law (in which case we will not be able to deal with them at all) or under
their constitutional documents (in which case they will need to amend their
constitutional documents if they wish to trade).
The check need only be made once at the beginning of the credit trading
relationship and so can be added to our procedures. It is not a particularly
onerous job and will increase the cost of this business only incrementally.
(ii) Confidentiality - We will need to put in place procedures to ensure
that we are not misusing confidential information about our business
counterparties on whom we are offering credit protection. Misuse can occur
both in pricing the product and trading it. The procedures will not include
formal Chinese Walls separating the credit traders from our other traders or
the credit department (a point we have managed to agree with both UK and US
counsel following very detailed discussions). The procedures will include
(a) the use of a Restricted List in both the US and Europe (similar to the
procedure currently used in Houston); and (b) practical steps to ensure that
confidential information derived from other areas of our business and which
we are not entitled to use (eg because it is the subject of a confidentiality
agreement) is not imparted to the credit traders. In addition, where Enron
has an especially close relationship with a prospective reference entity, or
otherwise has confidential information relating to such an entity, we will
need its written consent before offering protection on that entity. Without
such consent, there will be an unjustifiably high risk of being sued by that
entity for breach of confidence.
D. Country Specific Issues
(i) Canada - There is a substantial risk that the product will constitute
insurance business, constituting an offence and rendering contracts in the
product unenforceable against our counterparties. We should try to resolve
this issue with the Canadian authorities before launching the product in
Canada. Timeframe for clearance is highly uncertain since it is not clear
which Canadian authority would take jurisdiction of the matter.
(ii) Germany - Again the issue is insurance. The risk is higher than in
Canada and so Germany should be excluded initially.
(iii) Norway - There is a material risk that the credit product could be
regarded as gaming in Norway, in which case trades would be void and
unenforceable. The normal way to mitigate this risk in Norway is by using a
"substantial professional effort" to satisfy ourselves that a trade is being
entered into for valid commercial purposes (normally hedging) by our
counterparty. Clearly, it will not be possible to take such steps on a trade
by trade basis in the context of EnronOnline. At a minimum, we should
therefore ensure at the outset of the online trading relationship in this
product with each Norwegian counterparty that there is a commercial logic
behind its trading this product type.
(iv) Switzerland - If the credit product is the main purpose of our trading
relationship with a counterparty, we should check with the Swiss supervisory
authority whether the product constitutes insurance (the position being
unclear). If a trade is insurance, it can be terminated by the counterparty
(which is obviously of greater concern if Enron is the Buyer) and an offence
will be committed since Enron is not authorised as a Swiss insurer. However,
I understand that the initial group of counterparties will be existing
business relationships, in which case we can parallel path this issue.
(v) US (New York Law)
(a) CFTC regulation - by structuring the product either as a swap or an
option (and meeting certain other conditions) we can rely on exemptions under
the US Commodities Exchange Act.
(b) US securities laws - there is a small chance that the credit product
constitutes a "security" under US securities laws (please see attached
Executive Summary). However, SEC regulations allow the public offering of
securities to "accredited investors" which will allow us to deal with
investors having at least US$5 million in assets. Since most of our
counterparties will be fairly large, sophisticated players, this test should
not impede the business.
(c) Insider trading - US counsel have advised that the risk of insider
trading occurring as a result of the product being characterised as security
(see (b) above) is relatively remote.

Tom and Mark are not spot traders, they're cash traders. This is what I was
referring to yesterday - that Real Time is now being charged $15 for trades -
but cash and term traders should still be charged the traditional $.005. Why
is Bloomberg recognizing these trades as Real Time?

Louise - first congratulations on your new boy Scott - Marcus has been keeping me posted and I even saw those great photos on his desk. I don't think we have met; I work for EPMI in NEPOOL with John Llodra and report to Ed Baughman.
I am writing to ask if you would speak with my brother-in-law, Dave Gautschi, a partner with Deloitte & Touche, who is co-authoring a book on e-businesses called Net Markets (see attached outline and reproduction of the cover). The focus of the book is to " ?? take a business executives perspective on the implications of B2B eMarketplaces on their business and overall business environment globally. It will lead the reader through the basic options for implementing real valuable B2B tools and technologies. It will then move to more and more complex AND valuable B2B opportunities. More importantly, it will identify and articulate the day-to-day business IMPLICATIONS of Ebusiness."
Dave, a PhD in mathematics (go figure), a former marketing professor, a folk singer (he leads our family in song fests) and just a great guy is intrigued/impressed with Enron on Line (who isn't) and would very much like your insights. I believe the exposure to both Deloitte and the readers of this book would be great for Enron in general and Enron On Line specifically.
If you are available please call his research assistant Mike Russell at 206-215-4285 to arrange a time to talk (they will be very responsive as their manuscript deadline is late July). I am reachable today on my cell at 617-733-8713 and on vacation next week but Claudette Harvey will know where to reach me.
Thanks for your consideration and enjoy your new young one (kids are great, I have two)

Larry,
Thank you for getting back with me. To answer your question: It is looking
more and more like the week of January 8th. The meetings would be held using
approximately 1.5 days of a 3-day window: the 9th, 10th, and 11th. I have
input from Kim Godfrey, who is driving things on the EBS side, and I have a
tentative OK from Avaya for the window of the 9th - 11th.
I will want to begin getting headcount of the EBS travelers, and the day(s)
which each would be attending. For example, you would probably attend both
days, while some of your team would be there exclusively for the 2nd day
meetings. I'm not sure Jim Crowder would be at both days, but Kim G.
certainly would, as would members of her origination team, including Systems
Engineer(s).
I will call you this week to get your input re: who from your team would be
going, and for which days.

Mission/Purpose: Coordinate EBS Executive Calendars
for EBS' trip to Avaya HQ in Basking Ridge, NJ
This is targeted as a one-day trip for the Enron executives
Daily objectives highlighted in red, further below.
Individual items per person follow immediately:
Jim,
I have spoken w/Nancy Young, and we have penciled in
that you could possibly make the trip on December 19th,
20th, or 21st; OR January 9th, 10th, or 11th. If Larry and Everett
can also join on one of the same days you are penciled in
for, I would like to book your time for the meeting.
Larry,
I have left you a voicemail, and this note. Please let me
know ASAP which of the days that I have penciled in for
Jim Crowder's attendance would also work for you.
Everett,
I have called Marie Thibaut and left her the information on
her voicemail. Since she's out, I'll send this to you directly,
as well. Will you also let me know which days (above)
work best for you?
Steve Pearlman,
You and I have spoken, I have your availability info. Thank you.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
To clarify the purpose of the Avaya trip: the first day (only)
is for executives to investigate the following items --
1) what value can EBS deliver to Avaya for Avaya internal
use (product/service solutions, financing, etc.) EBS sell
EBS' solutions to Avaya for Avaya internal use
2) ideas for opportunities for Avaya and EBS to enter into
a "sell through/sell with" arrangement, whereby some type
of joint marketing efforts could be enjoined. EBS sell with,
and/or through the Avaya sales organization
The second day (only) would be for Avaya and EBS
development/technical staff to meet and brainstorm the:
1) results of the executive meetings' output from 1&2 above,
discuss output of day 1 meetings, & technical issues
and opportunities
and 2) what technical hurdles or opportunities exist which
could enable successful EBS efforts to sell EBS solutions
to Avaya and through Avaya or with Avaya's sales &
marketing team. Larry Ciscon may choose to attend both
days due to the nature of his mission.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Please let me know as soon as you can which day or
days would work best for you to make the trip. I need to
get things coordinated with my counterpart at Avaya so
he can schedule his executives' time, and their briefing
center facility.
Thank you,

Having read the Hogan paper, I think that the "academic" community is
somewhat divided on this issue. If we want to move forward on the issues
Joskow addresses, I would recommend that EPSA be the vehicle. The entire
marketer / generator community needs to counter.
What do people think about seeking activity through EPSA, WPTF, and/or IEP of
CA to push back on the studies and analysis especially after the Dec 13
Order? I don't think that the discussions will be ending very soon.

Subject: Re: Analysis of Joskow / Hogan Papers
The Joskow/Kahn paper raises two issues: price above cost and witholding.
Enron obviously has concerns with the "price above cost" analysis. I drafted
some specific concerns and put them into a draft to Enron's reponse to Hoeker
Question 1. Although the detail was dropped in the final draft, the basic
technical concerns were laid out there. To really rebut Joskow/Kahn would
take considerable work. Jeff D's idea was to write a paper that raised
issues and indicated how complicated a "correct" response would be.
The Joskow/Kahn withholding section has recieved criticism from the ISO so I
am not sure Enron needs to respond to that.
I think my bottom line now is that the debate at FERC will soon be over or
enter a new stage on the 13th. As far as how a response would help us in
California, I think requires a discussion with Jeff.

FYI. In bizarre times, help can sometimes come from bizarre places. Granted,
we're likely to disagree strongly with Hogan's continued obsession with
Poolco, but the discussion in his paper regarding market power may be
helpful---I've read the Joskow paper, but haven't yet had a chance to review
the Hogan piece.
Steve and I discussed the need to do a focused assessment of the Joskow/Kahn
"analysis" (remember it's Ed Kahn, not Alfred Kahn). Seems that it would be
very useful to fold into that analysis any useful stuff on market power
included in the paper done by Hogan & Co. If, in the end, there ain't
nothing useful, so be it. But seems like there's little downside to
exploring it.
Jim, my understanding is that Alan is already working with the fundamentals
folks on the Portland desk to deconstruct the Joskow paper. Might want to
include the Hogan paper in those discussions and might also be useful to pull
Seabron Adamson into the thinking, too. Ultimately, may be preferable to
have any assessment of Joskow and/or Hogan to come from economists, rather
than directly from us.
Best,
Jeff

Subject: From Today's Electricity Daily
Has FERC Gone Far Enough in California?
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission isn't going far enough in its
attempt to reform the California wholesale electric market, according to a
paper by three prominent economists done for San Diego Gas and Electric. The
paper by John D. Chandley, Scott M. Harvey, and William W. Hogan argues that
FERC should first end the artificial separation that divides the California
Power Exchange and the California Independent System Operator, rather than
worrying about the governance of the two institutions.
"The change in governance may help," says the paper - "Electricity Market
Reform in California" - "but it is not likely to be decisive in the near
term. Explicit guidance from the commission regarding the nature and
trajectory of reforms will be essential if market reform is to be
accomplished within an acceptable time frame." Hogan, of the Kennedy School
of Government, has been writing since 1995 in opposition to California's
market separation.
Also, argues the paper, freeing the California utilities to engage in forward
contracting is no panacea. "The expectation that merely allowing utilities to
participate in forward contracting necessarily would be the solution to high
prices is problematic and not supported by the commission's staff report,"
says the analysis, adding that "putting pressure on buyers to sign contracts
in the present environment may make things worse." If the underlying problem
in California is high cost and low capacity, requiring forward contracting
could harm not only California but also the entire Western U.S. electric
system.
FERC's $150 so-called "soft cap" is a wild card that has the three economists
scratching their heads. "It does not appear in the staff report and there is
little critical analysis of their implications, other than the discussion of
Commissioner [Curt] Hebert." If the intent of the soft cap is to move toward
cost justification for bids above $150/MWh, then FERC is headed into an
administrative morass "that would rival those under wellhead price controls
in the natural gas industry."
If, on the other hand, the soft cap is "truly soft" and would only require
some paper work at FERC and the possibility of a refund if the price is
eventually deemed not just and reasonable, "there might be little impact on
consumer prices (particularly if the principal sources of those high prices
are high costs and regional capacity shortages rather than the exercise of
market power). Even so, the proposal might serve to deter entry and new
investments, thus combining the worst of both worlds, high consumer prices
and little or no new investment."
FERC's proposed order in California also demonstrates confusion about just
what constitutes market power. The paper cites the proposed order's lawyerly,
obfuscatory conclusion that "while this record does not support findings of
specific exercises of market power, and while we are not able to reach
definite conclusions about the actions of individual sellers, there is clear
evidence that in California market structure and rules provide the
opportunity for sellers to exercise market power when supply is tight and can
result in unjust and unreasonable rates under the [Federal Power Act]." The
economists note, "In this regard, the debate is confused because we are
dancing around the words where the truth may be hard to face."
In the case of California, say the economists, there is no evidence of market
power. Even the practice of generators avoiding the day-ahead market in favor
of the real-time market "is a response to bad market design and pricing
incentives (including price caps), but does not demonstrate the exercise of
market power." Nor is bidding above marginal cost necessarily an exercise of
market power, they add. "The distinction between direct marginal cost and
opportunity cost is sometimes lost in the discussion. Hence, a competitive
bidder whose direct cost of generation is $40 but who could sell the same
energy outside California for $100 should bid no less than $100. This would
not be an exercise of market power."

1. What form of NDA do you want. We have 2 forms, one where only Enron is
providing confidential information, and a bilateral agreement where both
parties are providing confidential information. If we have a situation where
we truly are the only one providing confidential information we prefer to use
the one-way form, it is drafted much more in our favor.
2. What is the project or nature of your business with the cusomer?
3. The counterparty's full legal name.
4. Counterparty's address.
5. Contact name at the counterparty.
6. How you would like the NDA sent to the counterparty. If you would like
to to fax it, please provide the fax and phone number. If you would like me
to email the agreement, I'll need an email address. If you would like to
send it yourself, I will forward it to you.
7. If you have a deadline for execution, please let us know.
I look forward to working with you!

Subject: Seismic Data on Oil & Gas field Development via Satellite
Mike,
Using NASA satellite transmission of maritime data and establishing a Houston
Data Center to consolidate and centrally process 3D seismic data surveys for
oil and gas extraction, exploration and development could save the petroleum
industry more than $300 million dollars annually through reduced operational
expenses. Added value in shortening the time to process and deliver the
finished surveys should generate more than $26 million per site (based upon
$15/barrel for average oil well production to market 30 days sooner)in
revenue. By re-selling this data to market analysts or by internally using
this data for forecasting future oil/gas production Enron could increase the
accuracy of forecasting reserves and production capabilities globally. By
holding the data as exclusive (or partially exclusive), Enron would have a
significant market advantage in futures pricing for oil and gas.(Vince's team
is quantifying the valuation of this information)
Attached please find an updated version of the business case for seismic data
transfer via satellite, by a geophysicist at SpaceData - William K. Aylor,
calculated using $22/barrel oil.
Based upon your availability, Jon Adler and I would like to make a
presentation to you (or your designated representative) on the Enron
potential of this opportunity, sometime next week (17-20 October).

Subject: SMEs for expert stories
Hello Kirk --
Hope you are doing well!
Just wanted to let you know that I will be taking over the role of
producint the expert stories for our simulation. I understand you will be
obtaining the SMEs who will be providing us with expert stories. Thank you
for your help. Here are a few guidlines to keep in mind:
Number of SMEs needed: 10
Number of expert stories: 20-25
Characteristics: SME needs to be willing to speak in front of the camera, a
mix of structurers, originators and traders
I've included below a slightly revised version of the process that we will
follow for working with the SMEs to develop and film the stories. The main
difference is that we need to get the list of SMEs by 11/28, instead of
11/30. By 11/30, we need to have contacted the SMEs and set up time with
them for the following week. I think that to contact 10 SMEs will take at
least 2 days, especially since one of the days is a Friday.
(11/26-11/28)
--Obtain contact information for expert story SMEs
(11/28-11/30)
--Contact SMEs to give them background regarding
the simulation, describe their role in the simulation, set up a time to
discuss ideas, and set up a time for video shoot.
(12/3-12/6)
--Meet with SMEs to discuss the categories of content we
need and where they can provide stories.
--Send follow-up e-mail asking SMEs to review the
stories (questions and answers) that we will ask them during the video
shoot.
--Make changes to stories, if necessary.
--Send final stories and video shoot logistics to
SMEs
(12/10-12/12)
--Video shoot
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Ann

PennFuture's E-cubed is a commentary biweekly email publication concerning
the
current themes and trends in the energy market.
June 14, 2001
Vol. 3, No. 11
?
A Rock and a Hard Place
?
Today, the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (PUC) voted 3-0 to approve
a settlement*proposed by FirstEnergy, GPU, the Office of Consumer Advocate,
the Industrial Intervenor groups and PennFuture*to resolve the
FirstEnergy/GPU merger and provider of last resort rate increase requests.
The PUC was faced with a seemingly intractable choice: grant a rate increase
that violates the rate cap and risk unraveling every utility rate cap and
stranded cost recovery decision in Pennsylvania, or just saying &no8 and
risk*according to GPU*creating a financially unstable distribution utility.
In approving the settlement, the PUC resolved the thorny issues raised by
the cases without excusing GPU,s failure to adequately plan its provider of
last resort service. Considering the circumstances, the result is good for
consumers, the companies and the environment.
But while Pennsylvania PUC approval was a major hurdle, the New Jersey Board
of Public Utilities must still approve the merger as well, and such approval
is anything but a sure thing.
Now that the PUC has made its decision, let,s break through the rhetoric,
assess the real issues in the proceeding and see how the settlement
addresses them.
The Problem
No matter who you are, how you look at it, or who you might blame, the
fundamental problem in this case is that GPU divested its generating assets
in 1998 and failed to protect its shareholders and customers from the
possibility of rising wholesale prices. In fact, wholesale prices did rise,
the retail generation rate caps remained intact, no competitive default
service was established, and GPU had insufficient long-term or lower-priced
generation contracts in place. Alone among Pennsylvania,s major utilities,
GPU was spending much more to buy wholesale generation than it was paid to
sell that generation to its native load customers.
The real problem then was that GPU was running out of cash or credit to buy
wholesale generation to meet its obligations. Although the company as a
whole continued to fare well financially, it became clear only towards the
end of the proceedings that the Commission and the public interest required
a solution which would enable GPU to continue to deliver provider of last
resort generation service, and to do so without breaking the rate caps. If
the Commission didn,t find a solution by June 15, GPU could have been frozen
out of the capital markets and would have come back to the Commission for
emergency rate relief*requiring a whole new set of proceedings concerning
the same facts.
The Solution
The preferred solution was to merge GPU and FirstEnergy and to establish an
accounting deferral for GPU energy costs. The merger is a good solution in
part because it overcomes the cash flow necessary to buy generation on the
market. Any cash generated by a modest rate increase trickles in over time
and is of secondary importance, so any modest rate increase wasn,t going to
solve the problem. FirstEnergy, a huge generation owner, can provide some of
the needed generation*even at market prices*without requiring the GPU
utilities to pay cash on time. With a merged company, there is plenty of
room for internal accounting flexibility. And, as a huge wholesale
generation player, FirstEnergy can also better manage wholesale purchasing.
The deferral is a good solution, too, because the rate caps remain 100%
intact. Consumers won,t pay more for electricity. Finally, GPU will be able
to re-enter the capital markets, and although they are given a lifeline, GPU
shareholders are not taken off the hook for the company,s past performance.
Thus, on May 24, 2001, the Commission approved the merger itself and allowed
GPU to establish deferral of generation expenses for accounting purposes.
The issues to be addressed in the settlement, as directed by the Commission
in its Order, concerned passing on merger-related benefits to consumers and
GPU,s generation costs. Today,s settlement addresses these directives by
extending the distribution rate cap from 2004 through 2007, rather than
violating the generation rate caps; providing a mechanism for GPU to write
off and/or recover its generation expenses from existing revenues over time;
establishing a demand-side response program to minimize future generation
expenses for the company and all consumers; and committing the company to
contribute $5 million now to the GPU Sustainable Development Funds and
invest another $10 million in renewable energy projects.
How the Deferral Accounting Works
The deferral provisions allow GPU to retain unrecovered generation costs on
its books until 2010 but doesn,t require GPU consumers to pay more as a
result. The rate caps are left 100% intact. Some excess generation costs
will be reduced on the company,s books if future energy prices decrease
sufficiently.
The settlement also increases the shopping credit modestly, while
correspondingly reducing the Competitive Transition Charge (CTC), so some of
the possible excess generation costs also may be recovered from existing CTC
revenue, which otherwise would have been applied against company stranded
costs. Doing so does not increase consumer payments, however, because the
1998 GPU Restructuring Settlement allowed CTC collection to continue as long
as 2020, in order to take into account the unknown level of non-utility
generation (NUG) costs and divestiture proceeds that were a major portion of
total GPU stranded costs.
The settlement cuts off CTC collection for GPU in 2015, rather than
permitting CTC collection from Met Ed customers to continue until as long as
2020. (Best current estimates are that the Met Ed CTC would have continued
to about 2018.) Now, any stranded costs not recovered by 2015 must be
written off, reducing consumer payment of stranded costs. This will provide
a modest improvement in the opportunity to shop and for a competitive market
to develop. Any remaining excess generation costs must be written off by
2010.
The settlement also redefines the way that NUG stranded costs are
calculated. Under the 1998 Restructuring Settlement, the amount by which NUG
payments exceed the market value capped rate are stranded costs. As changed,
only the portion of a NUG payment that exceeds the higher of the capped rate
or the market price is recoverable as stranded costs. This change corrects
what turned out to be an inaccurate assumption that the market price of
generation would always be below the capped rate, but it does not affect NUG
contracts in any way. The NUGs still get whatever they are entitled to under
their contracts without changes, and even benefit because their payor will
become the financially stronger merged FirstEnergy instead of GPU.
The Benefits
The primary, and crucial, benefit to the consumer is that provider of last
resort generation service will continue within capped rates. The primary
benefit to the company is that the deferral accounting allows the company
maximum flexibility to recover costs and to write off unrecovered costs.
But perhaps the most important aspect of the settlement is that it
establishes a firm commitment and mechanism for FirstEnergy to address the
underlying problem by reducing its exposure to high energy costs with a
comprehensive demand side response program. While the details of the program
remain to be developed, the company commitment includes an effort to
&maximize the cost-effective reduction of peak load8 through interval and
time-of-use metering, appliance control technologies and open architecture.
Its goals are to include participation by all customer classes and
competitive suppliers and to be available by next summer. If no program
agreement is reached, all parties may address the issues in a future
Commission proceeding.
The other environmental benefits are real, if not as comprehensive as one
might have preferred. FirstEnergy will give $5 million in company money to
the GPU Sustainable Development Funds within 60 days. This contribution is
in addition to those already made by GPU, but replaces the .01 cents/kwh of
GPU ratepayer money that might have been provided between 2005 and 2008 IF
the Commission did not change distribution rates by that time.
FirstEnergy, in consultation with PennFuture, will also invest an additional
$10 million in renewable energy. Like all provisions of the settlement, the
environmental provisions are subject to PUC oversight.
What the Settlement Does Not Do
First, the settlement does not really resolve what would happen in the event
that the merger falls through*if, for example, the New Jersey BPU rejects
the merger. All of the agreements would be tossed except the agreement to
deal with the deferral account for generation costs authorized by the
Commission on May 24. GPU would write off all generation costs prior to June
1, 2001, while it would recover the costs incurred after June 1, 2001 in a
manner and at a time to be determined in Commission proceedings. Nothing in
this provision assumes a rate increase or breaking the rate caps. For
example, the costs could be recovered in a manner comparable to the deferral
accounting in the event that the merger is completed.
The settlement also does not allow FirstEnergy to raid any pension funds.
Federal law and union contracts govern pension plan funding and tolerate
some withdrawals with major tax penalties. GPU unions support the
settlement.
The settlement does not shut down or clean up all of FirstEnergy,s fossil
generation plants, or figure out how to safely eliminate FirstEnergy,s
nuclear waste.
Finally, the settlement does not establish lower competitive wholesale and
retail market prices in the FirstEnergy and GPU territories or jump start
the competitive market.
Yeah, that would have been nice, too.

Dan,
This was the reaction that I just got from SMUD. I am assuming that we
didn't incorporate any of their language, which is fine. It would just be a
point of discussion if I could point out that we were working with their
language.
Thanks,
Kim

On January 30 , an EES team is meeting with IBM in San Jose to cover a number
f issues, related top the IBM contract.
It would be very helpful to the team if one of you could attend the meeting
and present Enrons perspective on the California situation
Could you call Jeff Nieland ( 713 345 9352) to let us know if you could
participate.
We can fill you in on the details re: IBM over the phone.

Jeff/Leslie/Barry---attached is a quideline that we developed on what our
"global" message on price risk management would be as we talk to PUCs across
the country and was intended to address the issue in both power and gas
markets. It's a good starting point and should obviously then be tailored to
each state's situation.
I am happy to jump on a call to discuss. I will be in Michigan on Monday,
but could be available between 9:30 and 12:00 eastern. (6:30-9:00
pacific--sorry Jeff!!). If you could leave me a voice mail about what time

If we decide to talk later in the week, I am not open on Tuesday until about
3:30pm central but Wednesday I'm pretty much available all day.

Group,
We are starting to see some market changes as we transition into the winter months.
First:
With EPE we will start seeing a severe morning ramp. We will have to carefully manage the units to prevent "swinging" them and increasing the chance of a unit outage. As the EPE loads plummet off-peak, we should consult the unit commitment, and depending on market conditions look to take units off-line and/ or put units on manual and buy energy back. Recently we have sold energy from EPE at a loss rather than putting costly gas turbines on manual (Newman 1, 2 and 3), reducing them, and buying that energy less expensively in the market. Our relationship with EPE is at a critical stage, they have a new vice-president and will be hiring new management to lead their marketing group. We would like to be a part of EPE's marketing effort going forward, but need to continue to prove that our level of service cannot be matched either in-house or by other marketers. I look to each member of the group to be a part of this effort and to work closely to run the EPE grid as efficiently as possible.
Second:
The morning ramp will soon be upon us in the Northwest. It will become very difficult to get energy in the Nortwest for HE 6 through HE 10. We should look for congestion possibly on the COI and the DC. Also, as lights and heaters come on in the evening, there should be another jump in load at HE 18 through HE 20. Enron Calgary will also be looking for energy these hours. Be sure to take this load movement into consideration if you lock a price in with ECC.
Finally:
We will have a meeting on TUESDAY--November 6th at 4:30 in the afternoon--(the first Tuesday as usual) to discuss market changes, peformance reviews and the final two months of the year.
Please see me with any questions regarding the system.
Thank you.
Bill

Due to all the teams being on different floors, I am very concerned about coverage
by John and Terry to accommodate all the team needs.
Here is a plan I would like to propose for now through March, 2002.
Terry concentrates on all TW issues and testing since he will be on 13 with the team.
John concentrates on NNG North end and testing since he will be on 42 with the NNG team
Mike concentrates on NNG South end and testing since he will be on 42 with the NNG team
As each of you are on vacation, then the other 2 will cover your area.
Another option is to have Larry and Raetta help out with the NNG teams during this time frame
Let's discuss on Wednesday after you have had a day to think about this.
Thanks. Lynn

Michelle -
Since this deal is beginning to heat up again, I wanted to get you back in
the loop. The earlier e-mail is a good overview of the structure proposed
for ownership. Some minor movement of employees may be required, but it is
not anticipated at this time that many, if any, employees will be
terminated. A few key individuals have change of control severance
agreements, but overall there is no change of control trigger affecting the
employee base.
I have attached a copy of the Legal Risk Memo I provided to Mark H. in
advance of approvals. It contains a summary of the deal and a general
outline of the identified issues, including two related to pension issues in
Quebec. I thought this might be helpful as a kick-start back into the deal.
Please let me know if you should need anything further or have any questions.

SECURITY AND BUG PATCH ALERT
TODAY'S FOCUS: BUG ALERT: WELCOME
03/06/00
Dear Wincenty Kaminski,
Today's Focus: Bug Alert: Welcome
---------------------------------------------------------------
By Jason Meserve
Welcome to the Security and Bug Patch Alert newsletter!
Given the recent spate of high-profile denial-of-service and hack
attacks and the large number of people who have signed up for this
newsletter before this first edition has been even published, it is
clear that security is a major concern in the IT community as it
should be.
With technology now being looked upon as a profit rather than cost
center, IT departments face more pressure to keep critical systems up
and running as well as secure. No chief information officer or network
manager wants to have to tell the CEO that their e-commerce site has
been broken into and customer credit card data copied. Stories like that
tend to stick in a potential customer,s mind more than an expensive
Super Bowl ad.
It,s hard enough to keep up with the latest new technologies, never mind
latest security patch for your operating system or e-commerce
application. But we,re here to help.
Once a week we,ll publish a list of patches and alerts from all the
major vendors and security organizations with links to the source. We,ll
also provide other (hopefully) useful resources for the security-
conscious IT manager.
Comments and suggestions are always welcome! Send mail to
[email protected].
Now on with the latest patches and alerts:
Security glitch hits Foundry switches
From this week,s Network World: A security problem has cropped up in
Foundry Networks, ServerIron switches that make the devices susceptible
to denial-of-service attacks.
Read the story:
http://www.nwfusion.com/archive/2000/89454_03-06-2000.html
Download the patch:

********
New version of Apache Web server released
The Apache Server Project released Version 1.3.12 of the popular Apache
Web server this week. The new release fixes what Apache calls a cross-
site scripting problem that could allow malicious HTML tags to be
inserted into client-side scripts. Download the new version at:
http://www.apache.org/dist/
********
Problem with Linux htdig package
Both FreeBSD and Debian are reporting a problem with the htdig package
that runs on their respective platforms. The problem is with the
htsearch and could allow a user to read any file on the local machine
accessible to the user ID that the script is running under (which in
most cases is +nobody,).
For more information from Debian:
http://www.debian.org/security/
to download a patch from FreeBSD:
http://www.freebsd.org/ports/
********
nmh Linux package patched
Versions of nmh prior to 1.0.3 have a vulnerability that could allow
malicious users to modify the MIME headers in a mail message that may
cause nmh,s mshow command to execute arbitrary commands. A patch is
available at:
ftp://ftp.mhost.com/pub/nmh/nmh-1.0.3.tar.gz
********
Zombie Zapper 1.1 available
Zombie Zapper 1.1 helps shut down the Troj_Trinoo denial-of-service
client on Windows NT and Unix machines. More information at:
http://razor.bindview.com/tools/index.shtml
********
Problem with MySQL password authentication
According to the makers of FreeBSD, a vulnerability in the MySQL
database server (prior to Version 3.22.32) could allow anyone that can
connect to the database to access it without a password. More
information at:

Subject: Re: downtime allocation document and parameter list
Hi Erik,
I worked on this for a little while last night but I couldn't get a modem
connection from the Hotel. I hope the timing is OK. The confirmed counters
are highlighted in green. The counters that need to be corrected are
highlighted in red. Most of the corrections are due to the fact that the
fault/status messages that are the result of enabling a "manual" operation
mode (for example, manual yaw) increment the maintenance counter not the
"turbine OK" counter. Unfortunately, there are many faults that we could not
confirm using the turbine simulator. If you have any questions Kim Nguyen is
the person who did the actual testing. I forwarded the results to Mark
Fischer and Mark Walker so they could check to see if this is the way we want
the counters incremented for the given fault conditions but have yet to get
any feedback. The faults that we could not test should be confirmed by
looking at the Bachmann software. Hopefully this will occur in the near
future. For now, this is the best information we have.

Deer All:
Chris and his crew of Tobby and Bobby and Joe and I managed to do some solid
work on Saturday. In addition to standard spring shut down of stands
(closing up blinds and pulling motors off barrels) we moved some blinds
around.All should be impressed with the new stand arrangements in the half
section.
BONE YARD
The tower blind at Pig stand has been relocated to the boneyard. The stand
was placed very close to where the ground blind and tripod were originally
located. It is well hidden and the barrel and feed pen were moved back to
there original location. Standing at the feeder and looking back at the
stand, all you see is from the gun window up and that blends into an oak
motte behind the stand.
PIG STAND (new)
The ground blind was then moved from boneyard to a new location just west
and a little north of the windmill and tank in the half section. The spot is
very good, providing a look due west for several hundred yards into the
heart of the draw in the half section. You can also look south a long way
and have good view of a game trail leading to the tank.
We moved the feed pen around the corn barrel at the old pig stand and set it
up in this new location. The protein barrel stayed put and is about 500
yards to the south and west.
Mertz has reclaimed two of his barrels and two of his spincast motors (I
gave him the poorest performing motors and the two barrels without varmit
cages). As a result, we needed to pull the 30/30 barrel to locate at the new
pig stand. We took the 10 foot tripod back to the trailer. This leaves us
with 9 solid stand locations. 9 good feeders (assuming the Lehman feeder at
boneyard is working well and sweeny is working). We will need to make a
magnum conversion on the barrel at the mesquite flat for next year. IF all
motors are working we will have two green tubes for back ups. I think we
should invest in one more magnum motor as a back up. I will look for one on
sale.
Keith, the new pig stand is ready to hunt with the old box blind from
boneyard, so the construction of a new box is not necessary. HOWEVER, if you
and the boys need a summer project, a lonestar type size box would be great,
but it does not need a tower. A couple of cinder blocks or those concrete
blocks at the trailer is all the height you need. Any more and it actually
won't work. The blind location is under a big oak (like the hideout), a
tower of any height will raise the box up too high into the branches. Also,
Chris should have brought home the lehman feeder motor. the time was right,
but would not test fire. Don't know if battery was completely dead (solar
deal was hooked up) or if its motor is shot. Please check it out so we can
have confidence in that motor next year. It gave us a bad time at the
boneyard last season.
Next Fall's work weekend should be easy, if we have solid participation from
lease members. It would be a good idea to look at your calendars now. Labor
day will be out for me this year (although everyone else is welcome to
select that and run with it). How about the 14th or 28th?? Please check your
calendars and let me know what works best for you.
Fall TO DO
1)standard filling barrels, putting on motors, trimming shooting lanes and
opening up blinds (killing wasps, oiling chairs).
2)switch barrels at showtime and hole to allow hole to hold more bags of
corn. This will increase the capacity and hopefully allow it to remain full
if we have rain that prevents us from getting down there to refill the
feeder.
3)little bit more chainsaw work at boneyard to open up shooting lanes to
west towards fence and south.
4)Install new box at pig stand??? If keith and boys build one.
5)Install lock on trailer door to protect valuables (kegerator and beer)
6)Install lock on gun cabinet for child saftey.
7)Hunt doves and drink draft beer, sweat and smell bad.
Erik.

"Fergus, Gary S." <[email protected]>

To: "Richard B. Sanders Esq. (E-mail)" <[email protected]>
cc: "Meringolo, Peter" <[email protected]>
Subject: Some thoughts on options
PRIVILEGED AND CONFIDENTIAL
ATTORNEY CLIENT PRIVILEGE
Richard,
After today's discussion here are our brainstorming ideas on
options:
1. WAIT FOR A BETTER PROTECTIVE ORDER
Ask Harvey Morris where they are on fixing the protective order that
is being litigated by others. If the protective order has not changed,
then unilaterally postpone production until it is. Pro: Better protection
and more time; Con: Even with a more stringent
protective order Enron still questions whether the PUC is entitled
to financial performance data. Thus, this option does not fully
disclose all of Enron's positions and the company may be accused later of
simply engaging in delaying tactics. Under this option we file our
formal objections as well.
2. TURN OVER THE TRANSACTION DATA AS IS
Continue on our present course of turning over transaction data for
electricity that was delivered. Pro: PUC will get the data anyway
either through FERC, unfair competition, antitrust or price gouging
litigation. By turning over the data that will show profits, PUC might
slow down investigation there as opposed to interrupting the business by
seeking to depose witnesses etc. Con: This would be waiving the
legitimate question that Enron has as to the PUC's ability to discovery this
information through a subpoena. There is also a question of how
confidential this data would be given the current political agenda. It
might also serve to whet the appetite of the PUC for more Enron
information and discovery. This option would also provide confidential
proprietary information to the PUC about how Enron gets its competitive
advantage.
3. TURN OVER DATA FOR OUTSIDE OF CALIFORNIA AND LET PUC GET REST OF
DATA FROM ISO AND PX.
We have told the PUC we do not want to duplicate the efforts of ISO
and PX so the way to relieve the burden on us is to give only missing
data. PRO: It would be easier and quicker to just give the outside of
California data and would sidestep for the
moment the ongoing jurisdictional question. Con: Without Enron
cost data for the California ISO and PX transactions, the PUC
would not be able to arrive at what they want -- a profit and loss
picture. We would have a hard time representing to the PUC that the
combination of the PUC data and the Enron data would be all that they need
to calculate the answers to Request Nos. 7-10.
4. TURN OVER EVERYTHING BUT PRICE
This option would simple omit the price data. Pro: It would not
reveal the profit and loss information. Con: It would not reveal the
profit and loss information. In other words, the PUC is clear that this is
what they are after. By giving them everything else, we
would in effect be telling them we will not turn over profit and
loss. Moreover, by piecing some of it together with the ISO and PX
data, the PUC might be able to put together a revenue picture which will be
quite large, but just not the cost or expense side.
5. DECLINE TO PRODUCE THE DATA
We would tell Harvey Morris that Enron has reconsidered its position
for the following reasons: (1) Our firm belief that the PUC is not
entitled to the profit and loss data they are seeking; (2) in his latest
email, Harvey has made it clear that the PUC wants more data (1999)
than we discussed earlier; (3) continued threat that if they do not like the
transaction data they will come back and ask for profit and loss
information that we do not believe they are entitled to; (4) Commissioner
Wood's statement that the purpose of this investigation is to get
money from market participants in the hands of consumers; (5) investigation
by the AG into activities of other market participants and the notice
that other governmental agencies are cooperating -- who are we producing
this information to and for what purpose; (6) Enron favors public
disclosure of trading data but only if all participants are required to
do so; (7) Enron is a small player in this market and many other market
participants are not involved in the process BPA etc. PRO: This
may be the only way to preserve Enron's challenge to the jurisdiction of the
PUC to get this data. Moreover, in the current political
environment there is no assurance where this information will be leaked. It
also makes sense to see what FERC will do with their published 11/1/00
report on investigation date. Under this option, we file our formal
objections and sit back and wait.
6. ME TOO
Upon reflection, we agree with the approach taken by the other
market participants. We will not produce until the protective order is
modified and then only data that is within the PUC jurisdiction. PRO: This
makes it look like all the market participants are acting in concert
and really is no different than option 1 above. Moreover, if you read
Reliant's responses, they appear ready to turn over financial data if
the protective order is modified. (Terry and Mike Day are both out of their
offices today.) Note that Williams is adopting a strategy that says
the PUC needs to go to Superior Court to enforce its subpoena. This may be
met with strong opposition by the PUC given their California
constitutional contempt authority.
7. MOVE TO QUASH BEFORE THE ALJ
Here we would raise all of the arguments that we have about why the
PUC does not have jurisdiction and fight it out on the merits before the
ALJ. PRO: The ALJ is a forum to raise the jurisdictional questions. It
has the least procedural risks of being dismissed. CON: Reading
the tea leaves, we believe it unlikely that the ALJ will determine that the
PUC has no jurisdiction.
Moreover, because the PUC has its own constitutionally granted
contempt power, the PUC will take the view (according to Mike Day) that
they need not go to the Superior Court for enforcement. They will also take
the view that the Superior Court has no jurisdiction to hear our
appeal. Appeals have to go to the PUC and those orders are appealable at
the Court of Appeal level. Thus, the only de novo review of our
objections might be at the ALJ level.
8. FILE DECLARATORY RELIEF ACTION IN FEDERAL COURT IN CALIFORNIA
We would claim federal question jurisdiction under the Federal Power
Act and in particular the provisions of 824(g) under which the PUC
issued its subpoena in part. The dispute to be decided is whether the PUC
has the jurisdiction to seek the profit and loss information from the
wholesale market. The authority for this would be Mississippi Power & Light
v. Mississippi 487 US 354 (bright line between wholesale market regulated
by FERC and the retail market regulated by states); Bristol Energy Corp v.
New Hampshire 13 F.3d 471 (1st Cir. 1994)(federal question whether state
agency can inquire into business and financial data in the wholesale
market but found no cognizable claim.) PRO: The federal forum may be more
even handed than the ALJ, but the question is whether we can state a
cognizable claim. There may be greater protections from disclosure of the
information as well. CON: The PUC may continue on a parallel track unless
we are able to obtain injunctive relief. The PUC might seek discovery of
the same information in the Federal court proceeding. We should assume that
this action will trigger the strongest response from the PUC and/or the AG
in form of further investigations or alternative forums for getting the same
information (e.g unfair business practice suit, price gouging,
anti-trust etc.). We should anticipate deposition requests for traders
etc. By taking this position, we will clearly be conceding that if
FERC asks for the data it is germane to their authority.
9. SEPARATE RESPONSES/STRATEGIES FOR DIFFERENT ENRON ENTITIES
It may make some sense to chart a different course for Portland
General, EES and EEMC and continue to produce some data from those
entities. PRO: The information provided for these entities is not likely
to generate profit and loss information that would be germane to the fight
we are about to engage in (e.g. EES's description of % off tariff rates for
example.) For Portland General, Dave Aamodt is out of the office and
not able to participate in any change of direction discussions.
Hope this is helpful.
Thanks
Gary

Team,
As I mentioned in our HPL staff meeting we are investigating the merits of
entering into a joint venture or another transaction structure that will
position HPL to effectively compete in the Texas intrastate market. Our
primary objective is to gain access to additional sources of gas supply and
achieve the required economies of scale to compete with other intrastate
pipelines. I would appreciate your confidence and support in developing the
optimal course of action for HPL and for Enron.
The skills that we have developed in our group are critical to growing our
Upstream Origination business in N. America, as well as to the ongoing
operation of HPL. Our origination strategy is to leverage our business
operations, field operations, engineering, producer services, and marketing
skills to capture value from transportation, gathering, storage and commodity
opportunities on the gas/power grids. We need our current employees to
accomplish this objective across N. America.
We have proven our ability to add value to Enron by developing the
Powder/Wind River pipelines, installing electric compressors, contracting for
processing capacity, and establishing a new gas supply corridor along the
Gulf Coast. Our recent efforts to provide services such as business
operations, measurement, trading/marketing, and accounting services to third
party producers and pipelines also looks to be a promising growth opportunity.
It is very important to our ongoing business relationships and our
competitive position in the market place that we DO NOT discuss HPL related
matters with third parties. Please come see me if you have any specific
questions or concerns. Also please refer any third party inquiries regarding
HPL to Tim Determing.
Regards,
Brian

Subject: Campbell Hearing
There was telephonic oral argument today before Judge Whaley on the filed
rate issues in Campbell v. SDGE. It went very well. Judge Whaley began by
asking Campbell to argue first, since "It seems to me you're flying in the
face of the filed rate doctrine." The bulk of the argument focused on two
issues: (1) what if anything is the effect of FERC's inability to issue
retroactive rate relief, and (2) (to a much lesser extent) how a class
action based on SDGE customers only avoided the discrimination prong of the
doctrine. Campbell's argument was ineffective, consisting mostly of his
preferred social policy rather than any law. His most substantive argument
was that filed rate was based on a res judicata-like theory, and since
market-based rates are not passed on by FERC before they go into effect, and
can't changed be retroactively, resort to the courts was appropriate.
I was not asked any specific questions at first, but was rather just asked
to respond. I began by advising the court of the July 25th order in which
FERC held that filed rate applied to these market-based rates, then
discussed Norwood, then addressed the res judicata analogy by pointing to
the cases that hold that mere filing, rather than agency review, invokes the
doctrine. Whaley asked me a couple of questions about retroactive relief,
the most significant of which was along the following lines: "So what you
are saying is that if, at the end of the day, it is determined that there is
no right of retroactive relief, then that's just like a statute of
limitations or any other limitation on a right or remedy that doesn't effect
FERC's jurisdiction." I answered affirmatively, stating that the salient
point was that it was within Congress' power to decide how this type of
interstate commerce was to be regulated, and that if Congress imposed
limitations on remedies for illegal behavior, we were all bound by that. He
seemed content with that answer.
Campbell replied in an argument that was pretty close to saying, "There must
always be a remedy somewhere." Interestingly, Whaley then asked Campbell a
couple of times whether he would concede Keogh's applicability if there was
a FERC remedy. I think this was a setup, and Campbell walked into it,
basically saying yes. Whaley didn't close the trap, but it would not
surprise me if he finds that the existence of a remedy at the agency doesn't
matter, and since Campbell admits that Keogh would bar the claim if there
were a remedy, he's out of court.
Whaley took it under submission and said he would issue an order. I think
he'll rule very narrowly, stressing that Campbell's is a claim under the
FPA. I tried to broaden his thinking, arguing that we ought not allow every
plaintiff to attempt to reinvent the regulatory system by dreaming up every
manner of legal attack on filed rates, but I suspect he saw through that and
will rule narrowly. Anyway, I expect a good result.

Hello Vince,
NIe bardzo wiem czy pisac po polsku czy po angielsku :)
Co u Ciebie slychac ?
U mnie troche zmian jak ze juz nie pracuje w SCEM , a przenioslem sie do
MIECO ( a small Marubeni backed energy-america trading company ) . Bardzo
rozne od SCEM. Najbardzij przypomina mi SCEM na poczatku z Joe, jak bylo
20-30 osob. Sa i minusy i plusy. Troche structure i research ale przede
wszystkim weather. TRrovhe latam miedzy East i West bo sa officy w obydwu
miejscach. California jest ok w zimie :).
Na bardziej personalnym froncie; pamietasz dinner na ktory poszlismy
kiedys na conferencji w NY z Catherine ( she used to work for Williams-
works for Morgan Stanley now ) , we are dating ( for a while) . It is a
good story how we met. So we owe you dinner :)
Jak bylem w Atlancie to pracowala dla mnie Christa Grey. Bedzie teraz
konczyla grad school in international relations ( with Eastern European
slant ), i zastanawia sie czy sa jakies mozliwosci polaczenia tego co robila
ze "Wschodem". Co robila to bylo przede wszystkim VB implementations modeli
, ( roznego rodzaju) , Web based data collections, basic research , teraz
jest w gas structuring etc. She speaks russian and was in Ukraine/Poland
few times on Peace Corp assingments. She is very bright and dedicated.
Myslalem zeby ja zwabic do Californii ale ten Eastern European pociag jest u
niej silniejszy niz u mnie :). I have here resume, wiec jak bys myslal ze
jest jakis fit I will foreward it to you.
Troche tak mieszanka pisze, przepraszam
Bede chyba w Houston w pazdzierniku to moze bysmy sie mogli spotkac.
Latwiej pewnie by bylo w NY ( mieszkam po NJ stronie ( rent jest inny niz w
Atlancie :) (201) 222-0435), wiec daj mi znac jakbys mial czas i ochote.
Thanks
Roman
