Dave --

Update on activity related to California price caps.  Key issue is that we
continue to believe a new vote will take place on Aug 1.  We continue to try
and find additional "no" votes.

Thanks,

Jim

Enron will take the initiative and help IEP jump-start the PR effort by the
end of the week.  I spoke with Smutney this evening.  He likes the idea of
Enron taking the lead with McNally/Temple.  I've emailed him the one-pager we
worked up today.--Palmer, Steffes, Dasovich,Parquet
The urgency for a solution is growing and a vaccuum has formed, with many
trying to fill the void.  The Cal. Manufacturers Ass. has called a meeting
with IEP and the utilities.  Dave Parquet and Doug Condon will attend.
I spoke with the VP of Strategic Planning at the ISO today who said there is
a "98% chance" that price caps will be on the agenda at the August ISO Board
meeting.
Dave Parquet continues to check with SDG&E to determine when SDG&E plans to
make an announcement about what it intends to do with the offers it received
last week.
Dave Parquet is working with Andy Kellerman and J. Steffes to try and get the
investment community energized on this issue.
The issue is now apparently affecting California legislative races.  Staffers
are drafting a bill that an "at risk" Democrat Senator from San Diego will
carry, with the hope of using the bill to get the bump necessary to win the
election.  Mona will meet with the staffer on Thursday to find out what he
has in mind for the bill and to communicate our views.
Dasovich will meet with Commissioner Bilas Wednesday to see if the Republican
block of the California PUC is hanging tough.

That's it from our end.

Best,
Jeff


Sorry, I got overwhelmed by California.  I have not talked to Ken yet and
will be in Japan until Friday.  Perhaps we can hook up then?

Steve,

We never closed the loop on Kissinger.  If you are around next week, why
don't we talk and resolve what we want to do so that I can proceed?  Does
that work for you?

Rebecca


Please review.  I'll have copies for you at 2pm as well.

Thanks

Tana,

If you are still interested in doing the Williams Collection do, what would
be a good time for you to go.  We can meet there and then go to dinner.  Or,
you could come by my place and get a look again and help me pick out the
right furniture.  Whatever is convenient for you, please let me know.

Subject: Tiger ISDA Docs faxed to you last night

Joseph Manogue at Tiger called me last night to say he had finally reviewed
the draft ISDA doc with all agreed changes put in and lined from original. He
faxed it to you and will have the original Fedexed overnight. Hope you'll
have time to review it today.

S&S has again asked about the gtee and l/c wording. They do not have anything
from us in writing confirming the agreed changes. Joe asked that you fax the
revised gtee wording that has been agreed (I believe it was our agreeing to
reduce the claim period from 15 days down to 5) and the new l/c wording
(drops the 2 day period to replace an l/c with a different bank if the first
refuses to pay). I know we talked about these issues earlier, but Tiger's
lawyers want to get everything agreed in writing now so final docs can be
issued for signing, even if we are the one's issuing the gtee and l/c.

Thanks! Call if you have questions or if I can be of any help. There is an
outside chance we could have everything set to go this week.

With best regards,
Per


All,

Looking back through my postings for TW, there was only one posting in the two month period in question that pertained to available capacity or open season. It was posted on Dec. 1,  2000  3:19PM .  Attached is that posting.

Subject:	TW Index Deals

It looks to me from reviewing the bid documents we received on the January I to I deals like we communicated to the counterparties identical information that the capacity would be available in several "packages" and other details of the sale procedure.   That communication must have been either (1) a posting of some type, (2) a fax or other document we sent them explaining what space was available and how to bid, or (3) a script that the marketers were all following to communicate to the customers.   Toby, if it was a posting, it would have gone up in late December or the first few days of January.  Please verify whether we did any open season posting advertising that space (which included Dec. 01 space and calendar '02 and '03 space).  If it was a fax or other document or a script, we need to get our hands on it.  Kevin, Lorraine, TK, Susan--does anyone remember which it was or know how to get our hands on it?

If we are going to be in a dogfight with BP on these deals, lets make sure we go in armed with as much of the relevant information as possible to demonstrate we were following the rules.  DF


After 7 long months, the stork has finally arrived!!!   My husband and I have
been in the process of adapting a baby girl.  I am elated to inform you that
our 14 month old bundle of joy will be permanently place in our home on the
16th of this month.  I will be out of the office that week to get her settled
in with her new family.

how is your week going?

Hey,

Several of us are going to lunch today.  It's kind of a combination birthday
party and going away party for Crystal.  Oops I shouldn't have told you she's
coming...just kidding.  You're invited if you want to come.  But I understand
if you are too busy today to take a long lunch.  Let me know if you want to
come.

Robin

This is very kind of you and I really appreciate it very much.  I shall phone
you to thank you on behalf of my family and myself as a stop gap measure till
I am back from India by 1st week of December to thank you in person.

The lawyer has asked me to compile all the letters, thus kindly send it by
internal mail to Amr Ibrahim, EB4737B.  Finally, strange as it might sound,
the lawyer has spelled my first name in the letter wrongly as "Amir", and I
wonder if there is still time to correct it to "Amr" without the "i".  If
this is a bit late, then it is fine as it stands.

Once more, thank you very, and I really appreciate it.

Very best regards

I hope that all is well.  India is still going strong with additional
involvement in commodity trading (electricity, fuels...etc.)

Please advice of the best time to phone you this week to seek your help in
reference to compiling letters of recommendation for the Green Card
application.  The application, supported by Enron, will be under the "Alien
of Extraordinary Ability" Category.   I am sure that your recommendation will
go a very long way and I am hopeful that you will agree to help.

I am enclosing the email I received from the lawyer and the sample letter
suggested. I am trying to highlight--where the lawyer indicated--the attempts
to safeguard and promote US investment in Argentina,  the rapport I had with
the various echelons of authority in that country, and shed light on
character and ability.  Please feel free to add/delete as you see fit and
advice of any comments and/or suggestions.

Needless to say, and regardless of outcome, I really appreciate your help and
advice.

Jeff,

Judy Lay Allen, an associate of yours on the Federal Reserve board, spoke with Joannie Williamson today regarding my desire to interview at Enron.

I am a graduate of Princeton University with two years experience in financial modeling and communications.   Towards assessing my skill set relative to peers, I took and received a 740 on my GMAT.  I have also interned in a gas exploration company and am familiar with the industry; likewise, I have worked with clients in telecommunications and am aware of the work Enron is doing in the bandwidth trading/pooling field.

I am aware of Enron's executive training/business analyst programs and am highly interested in exploring opportunities therein.  I am in Houston through Friday evening and, given the short notice, would be grateful for any opportunity to meet with the appropriate person any time Thursday or Friday.

I look forward to interviewing and applying my experience at Enron.

Best regards,
Michael Kuntz

here is the enron forecast for next week- notice the headline section   :-)


John/Louise:

Brian Stanley and I discussed his proposal to consolidate the Enron America development engineers under EEOS.  As you know, there is a lot of noise in the system with respect this topic that is detracting from productivity.  I suggest that we need to make a definite decision on whether or not the ENA Tech Services Group will be consolidated into EEOS or will they remain as a separate group under ENA.  The stakeholders in this decision include the power/gas origination teams (e.g. Duran, Jacoby, Calger, etc.) the various technical groups, and RAC.  These groups should be consulted to ensure that whatever we do meets their requirements.

I have asked Brian S. to arrange a meeting when he returns from his trip on or about June 11th (with Louise on the phone) to discuss.  This will also ensure we get past some key dates in our construction projects.

Regards,
Brian

Subject: Shared Services

I am asking my assistant, Lauren to set up a video conference to discuss the
support services that Enron Europe is providing and how we
should move forward to make these more responsive to your needs, as well as
more efficient.   We will have a number of classic "centralized versus
decentralized" matters to resolve and I doubt if one size will fit all.  Keep
in mind that we have no desire to expand our empire.  In fact, from our
perspective if our non-commerical headcount got smaller it would be a great
outcome.  But the way it is has been going lately, we have been adding
non-commerical headcount at a record pace at the same time that each of us is
trying to massively expand our commercial business.

We put a freeze on non-commerical hires earlier this week while we try and
assess our space limitations and plan for the 2001 budge, so this is
important that we get your perspective soon on what will work for you.

Global Markets has already moved some of these services under Brent Price in
Houston but there are many other services which we need to consider as well
such as:
IT development
IT infrastructure
RAC
Credit
Risk Management
Legal
Accounts Payable
Tax
Building Services
Analyst & Associate recruiting
Senior recruiting
Expat services
Other HR
PR
Governmental Relations
SFA relations
Finance

I hate to think that we will need to form a committee to work this issue, but
that is a possibility.  If you have any suggestions for a process for working
these issues through, please send them out to this group or bring them to our
upcoming meeting.

John

Maybe it is on the development phone list.  I don't have it at hand.

Remember not to throw away baby stuff!  My oldest daughter, Sara has already
bought a complete wardrobe for the baby including girl and boy outfits.  I
guess I had better get on the ball and at least buy a "I Love Granny" bib or
something!  Ha.

Do you know Carlos' cell phone number?  His normal secretary is out.

The purpose of this memo is to inform you of organizational changes for ETS Pipeline Integrity Program Management.

Frank Osburn, Director of Facility and Operational Records, will move from Engineering and Construction to the Pipeline Integrity organization. Frank will bring the Document Control Team, the Mapping Team, and the Project Completion Team, as well as be responsible for Operational Compliance (Meagan Bange) and the PHD / PDMS group under Larry Abbott. We believe this entire group is critical to Pipeline Safety and Integrity and will help ensure consistent strategies.

Max Brown, currently Director of Corrosion and Risk Management, will add Pipeline Integrity Program responsibilities to his role. Max will add Ronny Davenport, Mike Ames, and John Millar to his Corrosion / Pipeline Integrity organization. This group will be working closely with the ETS Area VP's and Region Directors to ensure our Pipeline Integrity initiatives are communicated and on track.

David Johnson will continue in the critical role as VP of Pipeline Safety, with Michael Crump as Director. The Pipeline Safety group will consist of Merlin Moseman, Pat Vaughan, and Lisa Choquette (RPT), with two Pipeline Safety Engineer vacancies currently open and posted.

Travis,

Thanks for your reply.  I will fax to you a copy of our request for
no-action relief to the CFTC.

Let me follow-up with the CFTC re your question on the issue of material
non-public information and we can discuss this later.  In the mean time if
you have any questions please contact me.

Agreement

Joe:

After speaking with Andy, I think it is fair to say that there is a
substantial (85% probability) that the clawback triggered by our closing a
deal with a competing platform will be triggered.  We will advise you if
and when it is definitely triggered.

As to the representation to the CFTC, we can certainly make the
representation regarding no basis for statutory disqualification pursuant
to Sections 8a(2) and 8a(3) of the Act.  However, we are a little bit
concerned about the application of the policies to prevent trading on
"material nonpublic information."  Most of our concern revolves around what
may be included within that term; certainly, it should not include
information that we receive from a customer submits to us through the
Posting Agreement, but in any event, a better idea of what the CFTC might
be concerned about here would be helpful.

Finally, would it be possible for us to get an advance copy of your request
for no action letter?  You may have sent it to us before, but if you did, I
can't locate it now.   I think it would be a good idea to get that in front
of our regulatory counsel as soon as possible and ask that they confirm
that the no-action letter that you get (assuming that they give you all the
relief that you have requested) will have everything that they think we
need.

Unfortunately, I am out of town this weekend at a wedding.  Therefore with
the midterm due on Monday, I will not be able to get to the next case at
least until November 3rd.  Sorry.
