Subject: How are you?

Mr. Germany,

How are things going?  You still pursuing JD's girl?  How's Corey doing?
Did you ever move into the bigger one-bedrooms at Bayou Park?  I hope so --
those studio apartments are too small.  How's Ingrid? doing?

As for myself, I have never been so busy in my life -- papers, group
projects, tests, etc.  I rarely have time to go out, and that really sucks
because the undergraduate women around here are just spectacular.  Granted,
they tend to be a bit bitchy (being rich daddy's girls and all), but they're
very easy on the eyes.  Anyway, if the trend continues, I doubt if I'll be
getting laid much during my two years at Vandy -- too many damn papers to
write!

Let me know how things are going.  I just got an e-mail from Jim; I think
I'll just be starting module 2 around Nov. 4, so I'll see if I can make it
down there.

In the meantime, my address here in Nashville is:

401 Village at Vanderbilt
Nashville, TN  37212

Keep in touch,

Chad

There is a pretty large group of us going to the  Firehouse for New Year's eve this year.  Most of the people that attended  the Christmas party and most of the people who went to Schroeder Hall last  year.  Anyway just wanted to spread the word to a few of you who may not  have gotten the word.  Tickets are $25 apiece and probably need to be  purchased before the end of next week.  Roger thinks it will sell out  before Christmas.  Hope everyone has a great day.  Joe if you would  like for us to buy you a ticket let me know.

Thanks

Scott T.


Staff distributed another list of ten questions to those who attended
today's pre-hearing conference at the PUC regarding Docket No. 23220 (ERCOT
Protocols).  A copy is attached for your information that includes a
question related to confidential documents filed by ERCOT.  ERCOT did not
object to sharing this question with you.

You may remember that an early commitment was made on behalf of ERCOT to
file written answers to question numbers 2 through 5 of Staff's first list
of ten questions.  (You got that list as an attachment to my earlier e-mail
on January 4, 2001.)   Today, we also requested that written answers to be
filed by ERCOT on January 17 to cover question numbers 3 & 4 in this
attachment.   In addition, a draft copy of a paper by Dr. Shams Siddiqi,
"ERCOT Local Congestion Management: Potential for Market Abuse," was
distributed today to facilitate related discussion on January 19.
Unfortunately, I do not have an electronic copy of that paper to share with
you.

See you on January 19 Technical Conference.

Support KidSave and Help Miracles Happen. Every Summer.

Kidsave's  Summer Miracles Program enables orphaned children ages 5 to 11 to travel to the  US and Canada, live with families and attend day camp. The program gives  families who may be concerned about the problems of adopting an older child a  chance to meet, get to know and in the best-case scenario, fall in love with a  child. The program gives prospective parents an opportunity to see and evaluate  first-hand the challenges and rewards of adopting an older  child.

In 1999 and  2000 Kidsave and adoption agency partners placed 432 children - 96 percent of  children who participated in the program. Generally, 85 to 90 percent of  children who participate in the program find homes easily through the program.  The remaining 10 to 15 percent require more work.

Kidsave  believes every child deserves a family. We are committed to placing all children  who participate in the Summer Miracles Program in permanent families or  family-like environments.

We are looking  for families to host children, and for others who want to help us make the camp  program happen for these 250 children.   As a non-profit organization, Kidsave depends on donations to raise the  money to bring these children here and find them families.  Please call Tonya Hoppe at 281.286.8948  or tonya@tonya.cc to get involved in Houston's  Kidsave program.

Enron and Kidventure Camps are proud to bring you Camp Enron Summer 2001.  Celebrating our third year, Camp Enron  will once again be providing summer camp for children, ages 5-13, of Enron employees and contractors.

This year, camp will be May 29-August 10.  Ten, one-week sessions will be  available and families may choose to attend any or all sessions.  Each camp week is Monday through Friday.

The cost is $150 per week and includes all transportation, field trips and activities.  A deposit of $50 per week is all that is needed to reserve your sessions.   The deadline to register is Monday, May 21.

To register, log on to: http://www.kidventurecamp.com/camp_enron.htm.   Spaces are limited.

Enron parents simply ride to work with  their children and check them in to the Energizer room in the morning with the Camp Enron Team.  Enron Campers are loaded on Coach USA Buses and transported to our nearby camp. At the end of the day campers are brought back to the Energizer for parents to check out.

It's that easy!

Hi folks:

Since we have only one page, the write up for number 4 will have to be very
brief.  Before writing it, though, I wanted to offer a few bullets regarding
what angle we might take, and let folks respond, comment, counter, etc.
before writing it up.  I'll clean and beef up once we've agreed to the
approach we'd like to take to question #4.  Finally, I can work from my
office on this this evening, which means that I can use the conference call
capability of my office phone to patch everyone in if we'd like to do a
conference call. If that's what folks would like to do, I'd prefer to do the
call at around 7 PM.  Just let me know.

Best,
Jeff

The question for #4 is:

Stock price is down 23%, significant debt has already been tapped to support
massive growth and covenants on that debt restrict taking on a lot more
debt.

What should HD do w.r.t. current operations and future growth strategy?
 In the near term focus less on growth and more on getting margins and EBIT
growth back in line with results from previous years.  (Management,s Letter
to Shareholders alludes to this, but it,s difficult to determine whether
management is just paying lip service to the need to capitalize on the growth
spurt and grown earnings, or continue on the growth effort.)

 With respect to funding future (more moderate growth), the company does have
some room to increase long-term debt (e.g., current ratio for 1986 = 2.26).
It seems that HD would get better terms and have increased flexibility by
issuing additional debt rather than relying on lines of credit.  As such, HD
ought to look those sources of funding and fill in any &funding gaps8 with
funds from the line of credit.

 Given the significant drop in stock price, HD is likely better off in the
near term 1) moderating growth, 2) improving performance to generate cash
internally, and 3) using long-term debt issuance to provide the funds
needed.  Once performance and stock price improves, then HD should consider a
stock issuance.

How can company improve operating performance?
Reduce selling, store operating expenses and pre-opening expenses
Improve receivables turnover
Improve inventory turnover
Improve per store/sales
Consider closing poor-performing stores
All of which will improve margins

Should company change its strategy?  If so how?
Shift from meteoric growth to moderate, targeted growth, and focus on
generating positive cash flow from operations
Focus on improving performance at existing stores; specifically focus on
controlling costs and asset turnover and productivity
Consider another debt issuance rather than rely extensively on credit line in
order to decrease cost of funds and increase flexibility

Subject: Re: BEAR Guarantee letter

Here's a recap for everyone.
Our original negotiation with Bear (for the Securities Loan Agreement) was in
the name of ENA, and, ENA had an existing account agreement with Bear.
However, Bear insisted that the account agreement was "too old" and that we
negotiate a new agreement.  I agreed on the condition that this not hold up
execution of the Securities Loan Agreement.  We have one or two final points
remaining on the new account agreement which we'll execute for both ENA and
Enron Credit Inc.. ("ECI").  We have the authorized trader list for ECI and
are waiting for Richard to designate the new officer/director slate but we
are prepared for execution by the existing officers in London.  The
assignment instrument will be very short for transferring the ECI book from
ENA to ECI.  It will take only a few days to replace the existing ENE
guaranty for the Securities Loan Agreement.

Jeff and Sheila:  Please verify that both ENA and ECI do not  need the
Securities Loan Agreement.  I believe it is just ECI and we can transfer the
existing agreement to ECI.

Sara,

I just spoke with Russ Miron from Bear Sterans regarding our Guaranty to
Reduce funding to 20% per side.

I had asked him about when they will be executing the agreement.  He said
that his lawyers are ready to sign but are under the impression that you have
one remaining point to resolve and that this point is holding up the
finalization of the agreement.

Is there an issue from our side?  If not we should be able to get this
execution taken care of immediately?

Thanks,

Tom

Hi Dutch,

No, all he said was that he hadn't been given instructions as of yet (7:50).  I've just called him again (9:05), and he said that he was told that there would be no money transfered either way???

Thanks!
