Subject:	RE: Final draft of Power GTC (really EEI) for Online Trading with credit terms (unilateral)

Attached are clean and marked copies of the online trading GTCs for physical power which I have generally discussed with Bryan Murtagh (UBS). You will note that we have elected to use the EEI form by incorporation as we believe this will be the most marketable approach understanding that different forms will be required for many players, eg WSPP.

I will be doing a final review over the weekend and expect this form to be final by Monday am.  If you have any questions/comments, please let me know.

By copy of this email to Genia, I would ask for her help in cleaning up the document (sorry, beyond my current skills, hopefully, soon to be broadened) and would ask Leslie to carefully review and provide me any thoughts/comments.  Based upon this document, we will have ready by Monday pm, the long form EEI for regular negotiation.

Over the past few weeks I have received a great deal of financial information.  Would you have time today to sit down for a few minutes with me and walk through what I have so I make sure that I don't miss anything when I sent the financial section to the data room?  Please call me when you have a moment and let me know if this would be possible.

Thank you for all of your help!

Dreaming of an Overseas Retirement?
------------------------------------------------------------
Many Americans dream of retiring to an exotic locale
overseas. The dream can come true for those "expats" who
plan their retirement wisely. Here's a look at retiring
abroad, with links to valuable online resources and a guide
to some of the decisions you'll make on such issues as
health, taxes, voting status and Internet access.

http://schwab.ed4.net/go/1sigserv2t/sept/retire/

Internet Scams
------------------------------------------------------------
Pump and dump. Virtual stocks. Pyramid schemes. These are
just a few of the online frauds, scams and swindles that
tempt the unwary investor. Remember, if an alleged
investment sounds too good to be true, it probably isn't
legitimate. Another hint: beware of an e-mail that
announces that you're on the "friends and family" list of
an IPO you've never heard of. Protect yourself from these
deceptions, and others, by reading this article, which
describes each scam and also refers you to links at
the SEC and other regulators for more information.

http://schwab.ed4.net/go/1sigserv3t/sept/internet/

Is Trading Stocks "Just Like Gambling?"
------------------------------------------------------------
There are certain parallels between investing in stocks
and gambling on games such as roulette and blackjack. But
it's important to know where these similarities end, and
how the practices or an astute investor are much different
than those of a casino gambler. This article explains how
the Las Vegas odds favor the house, and why gambling is
not the same as intelligent, long-term investing.

Election 2000 - An Investor's Guide
------------------------------------------------------------
The Presidential campaign is heading into its stretch run,
and the Republican and Democratic candidates have staked
out positions on the issues that most concern investors.
Where do they differ - and where do they agree? This
analysis from the Schwab Washington Research Group*
summarizes where the candidates stand on taxes, the Federal
budget, health care, education, and retirement savings. If
you think there's hardly any difference between the two
platforms, you're in for a surprise.

Financial Services: The Urge of the Merge?
------------------------------------------------------------
The once staid world of financial services appears to be
undergoing tremendous change, as commercial banks,
insurers, brokers and others grapple with new technologies
and deregulation. Recent legislation by Congress was
expected to trigger a wave of cross-industry mergers and
acquisitions. Yet this feeding frenzy has been slow to
begin, due to Y2K concerns, rising interest rates and
lower stock prices. What's the outlook now for a
convergence? Will bankers gobble insurers, or vice versa?
Where are some of the opportunities for investors? Read
this analysis from the Washington Research Group.*

Come Walk the Boards
------------------------------------------------------------
Check out our new streamlined message boards at
http://schwab.ed4.net/go/1sigserv7t/sept/boards/.
Since July, we've added eight boards on popular topics
such as mortgages and margin investing. If you haven't
registered, do so today!

After Hours Trading Becomes Extended Hours Trading
------------------------------------------------------------
Here's an update on new trading times and policies:
- Pre-Market session: Order entry begins at 7:45am ET,
  Execution between 8:00am - 9:15am ET
- After Hours session extended: Order entry begins
  at 4:05pm ET, Execution between 4:15pm - 8:00pm ET
- Ability to trade odd and mixed lots
- Most Listed and Nasdaq securities are available

Remember that Extended Hours Trading poses certain risks
and may not be for everyone. Schwab reserves the right to
change or modify hours of operation for extended hours
trading at any time.

To learn more go to
http://schwab.ed4.net/go/1sigserv8t/sept/extendedhrs/

Due to limited liquidity in extended hours trading
sessions, there are no assurances that an investor's
stock order will be executed.

Decimalization: What is It?
------------------------------------------------------------
Decimalization is the process of converting the pricing
of equities from fractions to decimals. Currently, U.S.
markets quote and price stocks (and their underlying
options) in fractions, while most foreign markets use
decimal pricing. The conversion process will take place
gradually, with the first phase on August 28.

To find out more about this conversion and how it might
affect your trades and investments, check out
http://schwab.ed4.net/go/1sigserv9t/sept/decimal/

Price Alerts: Faster Than Ever
------------------------------------------------------------
Now Signature Services clients who subscribe
to Schwab's Price Alert service can receive their Price
Alerts even more rapidly. We are accelerating the delivery
of Price Alerts, which can be delivered to you via e-mail
or pager.

Price Alerts are triggered by criteria you select for

MarketPro Talk featuring Dennis McKechnie, PIMCO Funds
Wednesday, September 13, 2000 at 7:30pm ET

remarkable bull run, yet many investors have held off
buying tech stocks. Have you ever considered having an
expert pick tech stocks for you? Listen in an get involved
in the discussion.

a single sector - such as technology - may involve a
greater degree of risk than an investment in other mutual

We will work with the respective members of your teams to test transactions from the exchange (once we have transactions to test).  I will keep you posted on the status.

Subject: Risk Management Policy

We will meet on 9/18/00 at 2:00 pm in 4262 to discuss Risk Management Policy.

Lee, if you and your staff would like to come, please join in on the fun.

Tony has agreed to move the Policy forward to the next level.  I summarize
some of the key information below.

The current policy is too restrictive.

We need to better define the type of transactions and who has authority to
execute and manage.

Do not include procedures and only discuss policy much like the Corporate
Risk Management Policy.

Positions will be managed in a portfolio of Gas Commodity positions, however
not all positions are included in the position limits measurement for this
policy.  For example the pipelines are long capacity and this can be managed
in a portfolio without a limit requirement.  Also, TW is long over-retained
gas and this is a position which does not have to be part of our risk
management limits.  These positions were created by building a pipeline or
entering into transport service agreements and seperated approval guidelines
apply.

North American Natural Gas is the only Commodity Group approved.

Transport Service Agreements are approved in accordance with ET&S policy #1
and #2.

Financial Risk Management Agreements are approved within the guidelines of
this policy.  Financial Risk Management Agreements that create risk are
allowed by the Corporate Policy but not allowed by the ET&S draft policy.  We
need to think about limits on the creation of risk from Financial Risk
Management agreements.

Jacques,

Would it be ok if I signed new consulting agreements with the engineer and
architect?  They have both sent me agreements.  The only payment
that George and Larry had made was $2,350 to the architect.  I have written
personal checks in the amounts of $25,000 to the architect and $13,950 to the
engineer.
I was wondering if the prior work even needs to be listed as an asset of the
partnership.

I would like for the agreements with these consultants to be with the
partnership not with me.  Should I wait until the partnership has been
conveyed to sign in the name of the partnership.

Let me know what you think.

Phillip


Ladies and Gentlemen:

As a follow up to Jim Schiro's note, I would like to solicit your views and
understand your thinking as it relates to the Global Business Council.

It would be helpful to get your thoughts and ideas to develop the framework
of the Global Business Council in the following areas.  I am aware of the
pressures on your time.  Brief points, or the first thoughts that come to
mind will suffice.

ROLE

   What are the primary objectives/activities of the GBC?
   What are the specific activities that the GBC will undertake and those
   it will not undertake?

STRUCTURE

   Who should be members of the GBC
   How many members should be on the GBC?
   What are your recommendations for the 1) membership selection process,
   2)  membership period, 3) membership orientation

GOVERNANCE

   What should the leadership structure look like?
   How should leaders be selected, and the length of terms?
   How often should the GBC meet (keeping in mind the objectives of the
   group)?
   What are your recommended location (s) and/or format of meetings (e.g.,
   face-to-face in various locations, video conferences, etc.)

PROCESS

   How should the GBC operate in order to accomplish its goals (working
   groups, special projects, interaction)?
   Who should attend the meetings (WEF members, only GBC)?
   How should the GBC interact with the other councils (WEF consultative
   groups, etc.)?

PERFORMANCE

   How will the performance of the GBC be monitored (groups and
   individuals)?

     -    Performing the key responsibilities of the charter
     -    Council dynamics:  communication, discussion and consensus
     -    Interaction with the WEF and other councils
     -    Appropriateness of focus areas
     -    Attendance, preparation and participation

We will incorporate your feedback into a strawman charter and circulate it
for your review next week.

Thank you once again for taking the time to shape this thinking.

Sincerely,

Sunny

(P.S. - Many thanks to those who have already responded to Jim's initial
note).

Richard:
In reviewing our ISDA forms we had the following questions for you with
respect to the arbitration and process agent language:

1. Do any changes need to be made to our arbitration language?  I have
enclosed what we currently use.  Also, should we keep in waiver of jury trial
even if arbitration is chosen for situations where the award needs to be
enforced in court?  Is it necessary to have a statement that the award can be
enforced in court?

2. We have assumed that there is no need to add our appointment of process
agent language if our counterparty is either organized in the US or Canada or
maintains a branch or office in the US or Canada.  Is this a correct
assumption?  Enclosed is our process agent language.

I look forward to hearing from you.  As we discussed last week, we will
arrange a time that you can talk generally to our group about arbitration
issues and questions.

I would like to thank everyone for participating in the first Wellesley Team
Meeting.  I regret the delay in processing the minutes.  The career placement
center has been really busy and I needed to contact them to get some of the
questions answered from the meeting.  For those of you who were unable to
attend, I have listed the topics of discussion:

Goals for Wellesley - Hiring goal of 4 (not limited to)
Analyst Program changes - Structure ( Team Leaders), Developmental Program, 2
day interview process
Interview Training Workshop - Everyone that will be interviewing is required
to attend a 2 hour session
Roles and Responsibilities - Role of team members, Participation is tracked
for PRC recognition.
Wellesley Campus Plan
 - We discussed the presentation time being pushed back.  I was able to get
it pushed back to 5:00  o'clock at the latest.  There are other companies
scheduled to present on that date and that was the  latest time we coud get.
There will be no class conflicts on that date (September 28, 2000).   We
discussed the attire for the presentation being casual (jeans).  That concept
was  proposed to the  career placement center Assistant (Bernice Tita) and
she said that casual attire will be well received.   We would need to just
indicate it when we publicize the event.
 - We discussed changing the interview dates due to scheduling conflicts.
The dates that we were  able to get were November 20th and 21st.
 - We discussed possible recruiting at neighboring schools(Smith & Mt. Holy
Oke)
 - We discussed taking the company jet to some or all the events, especially
when we will be   involving recruiting efforts at the neighboring schools.
Target Groups -  Economic Student Board Association, All majors

I have forwarded the Wellesley recruiting guide to those of you who were
unable to attend.  If you have not received it by now, please contact me and
I will get one to you a.s.a.p.

I have meetings scheduled with Jean Mrha and Cindy Olson to work on the
participants for the events and afterwards I will get the revised campus plan
to the team.  If you have any questions regarding the contents of this e-mail
or other Wellesley recruiting questions, feel free to contact me at any time.

Thanks, Geynille

Becky- I don't thin we should rely on displacement to serve the needs of the full requirements because i t may cause me to flow gas that may be uneconomical

Subject:	RE: RP01-484, Complaint against FR contracts on El Paso

Yes, it has been noticed.  Comments are due August 2.  The other complaint, RP01-486, by the Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona shippers has also been noticed and comments are due August 6.

I agree that we should intervene and support discontinuation of the FR contracts.  I would like to see us also support some proposed solution(s).  I think there is some merit to the Salt River Project "conceptual" solution -- up to the point where they call for continuing the current system seemingly until El Paso expands their system sufficiently to handle everybody's needs forever.  Some entitlement for FR shippers that recognizes the seasonal nature of their loads, which is how the system operates anyway, would be a reasonable solution.  Also, El Paso needs to at least make a nominal contribution to the solution by agreeing to some expansions to the general system.

Subject:	RP01-484, Complaint against FR contracts on El Paso

I would recommend that when we intervene in RP01-484, the Joint Complaint against El Paso, that we side with the complainants against continuation of the FR contracts.  The gist of the complaint is that the full requirements contracts (East of California customers) on El Paso are creating capacity problems, as the loads these contracts serve keep growing, and cutting into El Paso's ability to serve the California customers.  My real problem is EES's inability to get firm primary rights into Arizona markets, which cost us millions in imbalance charges earlier this year.  Any thoughts?  Becky, has it been noticed yet?

Week Ending 10/12/01:

Glad to discuss...

Steve


Thanks Tana.
1. Not sure that the tel number you have included for me will work.  It may
be safer just to use the following, which is my direct line: 011
81-3-5219-4553.
2. Unless Alan or Mark thinks we need to add John V to the list for Japan so
that there is someone in the same time zone, it may be simpler just to have
me down for Japan.  John will no doubt get very busy on his own stuff now and
probably doesn't want to have any ongoing formal role.

Also, can I have the list again after it has been finalized.

Thanks.
Jane

		 Subject: Online Legal Contacts

In order to improve communication between the Legal Department and our Online
team, Mark Haedicke has asked us to prepare a list of legal contacts which we
will be providing to the Online team.  Before we send this out, I have been
asked to send the list to each of you for your input.  Please let me or
Leslie Hansen know of any additional contacts or changes that you feel we
need to make to the list.


Every day?

Subject: Off-Peak

Kay-

According to the control room guys, "off peak" is defined as hour ending 2300
to hour ending 0600.  They indicate that this is a NERC standard.


Attached is a short report on the findings during the drive component test at
Cambridge, Can on the 22nd of  July.
 Witnessed by Chris Bailey, and Dale Korver.

Will set up a conference call to answer questions and discuss plan of attack.
