Under the UK agreement between Metallgesellschaft Limited (MGL) and Rudolf

   MGL purchased certain LME warrants (metals) from RWG;
   MGL sold certain LME futures to RWG;

   Hamburg and New York offices for up to 2 months following closing;
   both parties agreed a process for the transfer of RWG customers to MGL;
   MGL agreed to make offers of employment to certain identified employees and
   directors of the RWG group;
   RWG assigned to MGL the Rudolf Wolff trademarks (including company names),

Under the US agreement between MG Metal & Commodity Co Limited (MGM) and

We have spoken to Alice Gruber, the immigration attorney.  In order for her
to determine if we can get this L-1 transferred, she will need a very basic
diagram of the transactions between these companies.  For example, who
acquired what and at what percentage as well as whether the transactions
were stock based, asset acquisition and/or mergers.

Please send directly to me and I'll work with Alice.

Alice:  with reference to the following, Enron recently made an asset
acquisition of Rudolf Wolf.  We have received the following note from
London:

"Need your help sorting Paul out.  Rudolf Wolf is an MG owned company.
Paul is a UK national, on an L-1 visa obtained by the Rudolf Wolf company.
He is transitioning shortly to an Enron contract, and I'm not sure what we
need to do from an immigration perspective to transition the L-1 visa.

Could you let me know what information the lawyers will need, so that I can
get the ball rolling."

Please let me know whether it is possible to bring Paul Fingster over on an
L1 given the fact that Enron did not do a stock transfer?

Many thanks

Sorry, I have been out on vacation.  Before I call Ingrid, I just wanted to
see if you found out anything on your trip to NY.  MG MCC should have
immigration attorneys who assist with their visa filings and should be able
to coach her.  I am nervous about coaching her as we have a law firm handle
all our visa issues.  Because each case may be different, we have the law
firm speak with each individual to determine the best route to take, then
they complete all the paperwork and we sign.

Hi, Jane!

I talked to Ingrid Krinke again today.  Ingrid is the HR person at MG MCC,
the New York branch of MG plc.  MG plc has acquired Rudolph Wolff, another
British company.  Rudolph wolfe has the two H1 and one L1 visa employees.
It turns out that MG plc is doing an asset acquisition of Rudolph Wolff,
not a stock transfer, and Ingrid's immigration attorney tells her that they
cannot transfer an L1 in an asset transfer.  Ingrid is starting the process
of transferring the H1's from RW to MG.  I do not know how much ingrid
knows about visas, and it would probably be good if we guided her so that
she does not so something that impacts us or that is unnecessary.

Ingrid has a thick file of immigration "stuff" on these folks but she does
not know what to send to us.  Could you give her a call and talk to her
about the situation?  I am concerned that i am not asking her the right
questions, or I may garble the info when I pass it on to you.  Ingrid is at
212.715.5241.  I told her that you might call.

closing is forecast for Sept. 8; i may be in NY either this monday or the
following monday collecting data.  I would be happy to sit with you and
tell you what I know , or join in on the call to ingrid.  Please ring me.
713.345.7801

Thanks a bunch.

Enron boss cancels testimony
Cites 'disturbing' TV talk: Blames 'prosecutorial' tone, claims of security fraud
Jason Chow
National Post
Former Enron Corp. chairman Kenneth Lay said yesterday he would not testify at today's scheduled congressional hearing into the company's collapse, blaming legislators' "prosecutorial" comments on TV talk shows yesterday.
"Not only were there corrupt practices, we are finding what may clearly end up being security fraud," Republican Rep. Billy Tauzin, chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, told NBC's Meet the Press.
An internal company report released Saturday criticized Mr. Lay, other executives, board members and auditors for the collapse.
It showed managers took home millions of dollars through complex partnerships, while hiding at least US$1-billion in losses.
Other politicians denounced the company's management before TV cameras yesterday in response to the report.
Last night, Mr. Lay cancelled his testimony.
"In the midst of our preparation, particularly disturbing statements have been made by members of Congress, even today, on the eve of Mr. Lay's scheduled appearance," his lawyer, Earl Silbert, said in a letter to lawmakers on the Senate Commerce Committee and the House Financial Services Committee.
"I have instructed Mr. Lay to withdraw his prior acceptance of your invitation."
Sen. Byron Dorgan, chairman of another Senate Commerce subcommittee investigating the biggest bankruptcy in U.S. history, said on Meet the Press the report "suggests massive problems" and shows "a culture of corruption."
While Mr. Dorgan said it was up to the U.S. Justice Department to decide whether to press criminal charges, he added the report showed "clearly some things have happened here that are going to put some people here in real jeopardy."
The 203-page report, written by a team headed by the dean of the University of Texas Law School, said Mr. Lay "bears significant responsibility" for "flawed decisions" in approving some transactions that hid debt and offset losses.
The report said these transactions did not follow accounting rules and were implemented improperly, resulting in Enron overstating earnings by US$1-billion during a one-year period starting in September, 2000.
"Ken Lay obviously had to know that this was a giant pyramid scheme -- a giant shell game," said Republican Sen. Peter Fitzgerald.
Enron, once the seventh-largest U.S. corporation, began to unravel in October after it said shareholder equity was reduced by around US$1-billion. The company said it used stock to pay off the debt of some of the complex partnerships it had created to reshuffle assets and hide debt.
With its stock already in a tailspin, the Enron house of cards began to collapse. The October writedown raised questions about how Enron accounted for debt and losses of similar affiliated partnerships. On Nov. 8, it restated earnings back to 1997, lowering them by US$586-million.
The company filed for bankruptcy on Dec. 2. Its shares sank below US$1 from more than US$80 a year ago, wiping out over US$60-billion worth of investors' stock including the retirement savings of thousands of Enron employees whose pension plans were tied to the shares.
Mr. Lay's decision to withdraw will undoubtedly raise more questions of his strong political connections to the White House.
Mr. Lay, an old friend of U.S. President George W. Bush, was also a major donor to Mr. Bush's presidential campaign, contributing $326,000 in "soft money" to the Republican Party.
Mr. Bush has been dogged by questions about the six meetings Vice-President Dick Cheney or his staff held with Enron executives last year. Mr. Cheney has refused to release records on those meetings, saying they involved matters of energy policy, prompting an unprecedented lawsuit from the congressional General Accounting Office.
The personal drama of the top level executives involved has created a subplot of its own. Clifford Baxter, a 43-year-old former Enron vice-chairman, committed suicide about two weeks ago.
And Mr. Lay enlisted his wife Linda last week in a bid to garner public support, appearing on a series of teary interviews on NBC's Today Show where she said her husband had "lost everything" even though he received more than US$200-million since 1997 from salary, bonuses and sales of Enron stock.
The Enron report released Saturday singled out other top Enron employees who were involved with affiliated partnerships that enriched themselves by "tens of millions of dollars they should have never received."
The report said former chief financial officer Andrew Fastow pocketed at least US$30-million, and former general manager Michael Kopper took at least US$10-million. The two worked together in forming several partnerships that bought assets off of Enron.
But the existence of these transactions "was merely one aspect of a deeper and more serious problem," the report said.
"Many of the most significant transactions apparently were designed to accomplish favorable financial statement results, not to achieve bona fide economic objectives or to transfer risk," the report said.
"They allowed Enron to conceal from the market very large losses."
The report also implicated Enron's auditor, Arthur Andersen LLP, for conspiring with the company. Andersen officials involved with Enron are scheduled to testify today.
Though Mr. Lay has no plans to talk before the committees, politicians have said they will rope him into the hearings using whatever means necessary.
"Our committee plans to call him as a witness, and if he refuses, he'll be subpoenaed just like everyone else," said Ken Johnson, spokesman for Mr. Tauzin. "They were looking for any excuse to try to wiggle off the hook."

Dear Liz,

    I wish I,d been at the house when you called the
other Friday. Robert and I were scrambling about
attending to a dozen last minute errands on our last
full day stateside. Just that morning he had
interviewed at Flint Hill School, a K-12 private
school in Oakton, and came back beaming. He hit it off
with everyone he spoke with, and they let him know
they would offer him the job - Director of Technology
- as soon as they checked his references! The
Headmaster called the following Weds night with an
offer and said he,d have the contract in the mail the
next day. Of course he assumed Robert would want to
discuss it with his wife - as of February 16, 2000,
that,s me!- before accepting. Thursday night, two
weeks ago, Robert called him back to deliver a
resounding &I accept!8. He,s very excited about the
job, a truly promising and stimulating change from
strictly teaching. The school,s policy is that all
administrators must teach a class, so he,ll be keeping
one foot in the classroom. We were SO very relieved
that the salary offered was more than we expected, and
we believe we,ll be able to live comfortably. Very
good news considering that there,ll be no second
income any time soon for this future NoVa household!
Unless I sell a screenplay or start a home-based
business down the line - Avon calling?, Tupperware
Parties?, Mary Kay?, Amway? medical billing? stuffing
envelopes? The Hamptons will, after all, be back in
the Land of Opportunity!!!
    His job starts late July, and we,ll stay with my
parents until we can find a good  place to live. I,d
like to live as close to the school as possible so
he,ll be spared the hardships of commuting. The Vienna
Metro - the last stop on that line - isn,t far from
the school, so we could also consider living near
other stops back down the line where he could ideally
walk to the station and ride from there. That area out
there is unknown territory in my experience. Vienna is
as far as I ever got while growing up in Langley. I'm
hankering to make a home these days, so I'm excited at
the prospect of hunting for one. And of course I'll
have Mom's seasoned advice and assistance. I even have
a few boxes of housewares still in storage at my
parents from when Philip and I lived on 10th Street in
New York. They haven't seen the light of day in almost
15 years! I have no idea what I'll find   when I open
them up! Robert has acquired very little, mostly books
and CDs,  living solo for so long. This is fortunate
because shipping belongings to the States from here is
bound to be a complicated chore and expensive as well.

    As much as Robert has enjoyed life here in Roma since
arriving in the fall of 1988 to work at the American
Overseas School of Rome (where he has been teaching
ever since), we didn,t seriously consider remaining
here. Job opportunities are very limited for someone
who is not a citizen of the EU. In that respect it,s
rather a dead end. For me the charms and pleasures of
city living in general are few and far-between at this
time in my life. And I find the urban living
conditions here even harder to cope with than in the
U.S.. The noise and air pollution are greater, and the
traffic seems far worse and more chaotic - inadequate
roads, more automobiles, and hordes of infernal,
spewing, deafening motorbikes that don,t observe even
the most basic of traffic laws and make every trip an
obstacle course. But  my greatest pet peeve?   The
clouds of cigarette smoke everywhere you go!  It
really is nauseating and spoils the pleasure of eating
out or going to a cafe or coffee bar.
    We flew back to Rome Saturday March 4, having spent 3
weeks with my parents on Hampton Ridge Drive in The
Hamptons - how fitting! Robert Hampton was entitled to
2 weeks matrimonial leave (Italian Law!) and the third
week was the school,s mid-winter vacation. My doctor
had no objections to my flying in my 8th month, so I
wasn,t uneasy about it. Our flight to D.C. via Newark
was a breeze because we were on a less-than-full 777,
the biggest, most spacious, and most comfortable plane
I,ve ever experienced. Our return flight was another
story entirely - a DC10, cramped, stuffy, packed with
passengers (many were bible-toting pilgrims to the
Eternal City), dreadfully dry air- it was miserable!
It took me almost a full week to recover from that
night and the jet lag. Of course at this stage in my
pregnancy I,m experiencing the occasional acute
discomfort, but for the most part it,s been a
trouble-free 8 months. What a unique sensation it is
feeling the baby bumping around in the womb.! I can,t
help but laugh much of the time, it,s such a curious
sensation and sight! She,s been very active all along,
at all times of the day and evening.  I,m glad to say
most nights I sleep quite soundly.
    Baby is due April 6th, two weeks from Thursday, and
the school,s spring vacation is April 15th - May 2, so
Daddy,s Home!!! Mom will be coming over as soon as her
2nd granddaughter is this side of the womb. We
returned to find Spring has arrived here! with lots of
birdsong and flowering all around: cherry and almond
blossoms, mimosa (a new sight and scent for me),
daffodils, daisies and violets. I must say I,m glad
our daughter will be arriving at this balmy time of
year. We are still undecided about a name for her, but
we agree we,d like it to be Italian in honor of her
birthplace. We,re told she may even be entitled to
Italian citizenship! But as with all things regarding
Italian law and its interpretation and real-world
application, one never knows until one dares to enter
the byzantine and infernal world of Italian
bureaucracy! We went to the Italian Embassy in D.C.
with our marriage certificate in order to get a proper
visa for me (tourists are only permitted to stay in
the country 3 months at a time), only to learn that
the only one that I could apply for is impossible
under the circumstances! Because Robert has been
residing in the country, he is required to request
from the authorities here that his spouse join him.
Then once his request is granted he must send the
appropriate paperwork to me in the U.S. where I in
turn approach the Embassy for the visa. And we learned
the other day that the waiting period here just for an
appointment to make the initial request is 5 months!
    There,s a possibility that because I,m pregnant and
have already joined him here I can get some kind of
residence permit. We wanted me to be here legally so
there would be no snags when it comes time to register
the baby,s birth. It,s all rather exasperating. Even
the American Embassy needs to see my divorce
certificates in order for us to register her birth
with them! I had to go rummaging in my parents,
basement to find them, and it will be the first time
I,ve had reason to present them to anyone!
    The last 8 months have been eventful, to say the
least! Our romance started in Waterford (where I was
housesitting for the summer) the first weekend in
July, and it started with a conscious, expressed, and
mutual desire to have and raise a child together.
We,ve known each other since living in Charlottesville
in 1981, and curiously enough he met both Philip, in
New York in 1983/84, and Tom, when he and I spent a
few days here in Rome in November of 1990 just a
couple of months after we got married. Also, we,d
spent time together over the past couple of summers on
Block Island, and I,d visited him here back in January
of 1998. But not until this past summer were we both
truly unattached and free to get involved. We feel it
was a beautiful twist of fate that I got pregnant
right away. The fact is I,d read for years that it can
take much time and effort for a woman my age - I
turned 40 in October- to conceive. We feel such joy
and promise being together and are looking forward to
joining the rest of you in the secret society known as
Parenthood! Robert is the most wonderful and sweetest
man I,ve ever been with. He is so good-natured and
even-tempered and bright. Life with him just gets
better and better. I do hope our daughter has his
disposition!
    So you can see why we felt it was fitting that we get
married in Waterford! We arrived in Virginia on Sunday
the 13th and made our way to the Loudon County
Courthouse in Leesburg on the afternoon of the 15th to
get the license. One doesn,t need to be a resident of
Virginia, and there is no waiting period since the
state doesn,t require blood tests. Caroline had
already made inquiries about the civil ceremony. They
aren,t performed at the Court House but the Office of
the Clerk of the Circuit Court provides the names and
numbers of &local civil marriage celebrants8. We
called around Monday and found that Mr. Fred Howard
was willing to come to Waterford the morning of the
16th. The woman who completed the license for us asked
us who would be officiating. We answered and she
exclaimed, &Well, he,s right behind you!8. We turned
around where we stood at the counter and saw a
portrait on the wall identified as Fred Howard, Clerk
of the Circuit Court, 1969-1981! It turns out both he
and his wife are natives of Leesburg. He was a
delightful and gracious man, and we were so pleased
with the ceremony.
    The fact is we,d given almost no thought to the
&event8 itself! Caroline made it truly memorable by
making a cake and a bridal bouquet, buying champagne,
dressing us that very morning, and taking photographs.
I,d bought a loose-fitting size 16 deep blue velvet
floor-length sleeveless shift on Monday at Marshall,s
for $10, a haphazard purchase I made on the fly while
shopping for an interview outfit for Robert. I,d also
bought some special tea from Paris at Sutton Place
Gourmet across from my parents and packed 4 of
Grandmother,s best teacups, thinking we could have a
tea ceremony of sorts to mark the occasion. Out of the
blue (the result of Caroline,s prompting!), Robert
appeared in one of Charlie,s suits! It sent me into a
panic - my casual black wool turtleneck under my dress
wouldn,t do now! Caroline came up with a long and
flowing ivory silk blouse and a string of pearls that
complemented my dress perfectly. And so the wedding
party - Caroline, Charlie, Walker, Robert Michael
Hampton, and Jacqueline Walker Brock - took their
places in the cabin before Mr. Howard who shortly
thereafter pronounced us husband and wife! (No matter
that there were no rings to exchange! I,ll be looking
for one here in Rome. Robert has never worn a ring and
is reluctant to do so. Perhaps a tattoo is in order! )
And then we were able to go outside for a photo
session because the weather that day was so balmy. Two
days later snow and sleet arrived, but for the rest of
our visit the weather was very agreeable and
temperatures were warm and spring-like most every day.

    I would love to hear from you! I,ve been meaning to
get in touch for months. How,s Y2K treating the Cox
family of Houston? How did you celebrate the New
Year/New Millennium? I understand that you,ll be going
to Tina,s wedding with Ella and that Alex and Lucy and
Kate and Chi will be there as well. That should be
both a memorable reunion and curious event! Boy was it
shocking to learn that Mrs. Pafenburg died and that
Mr. Pafenburg is now living with Tina and suffering
from Alzheimer,s and requiring a full-time attendant
to look after him. It truly makes me appreciate the
good health and life that my parents have.
    E-mail me when you can! Hope all is well with you.
Love to you and Grant, Ella and Sam,  AND HAPPY
SPRING!!!!
    Ciao, XOXOXOXOXOXOX, Jacqueline

Hi Michelle;

Dovie told me that she has had a chat with you regarding the diversity stats we were preparing for the VP PRC on 23 July.  Delainey had asked specifically for these stats, and that's why wewere including them.  Is there any way that we can provide the data, perhaps marking it attny privilidge?  If not, can we discuss this with Delainey so that he is aware of the reasons PEP PRC cannot provide it?  I'd apprecuate your thoughts.  Thanks, Gina

Hey Rob, it's like deja vu all over again.

You know, I tried to put spot lights and alarm sirens in the e-mail this
time, but this should do it.  God save the fool that sends CIGSA money after
this little note, but of course I am fighting the last war now, aren't I? (we
won, but it killed us. we had to destroy the company to save it)

Subject: URGENT STOP PAYMENT: Writ of Garnishment of money due CIGSA served
on EECC on April 10

EECC has just been served with a writ of garnishment from the 333rd Judicial
District Court of Harris County  in connection with a judgment against
certain CIGSA entities. In the writ, the court very unambiguously and very
plainly commands that EECC is not to pay any debt or deliver any property to
CIGSA pending further orders from  the court. The writ was issued to enforce
an judgment  for $1.3 million awarded by the court against CIGSA in favor of
Richard P Estrada. EECC is also commanded to appear before the court and list
all funds/assets in our possession that might belong to CIGSA,  and to
disclose what other persons we know ofif any, that might have such funds or
assets.  The lawyer for Mr. Estrada is the same lawyer who successfully
garnished EECC in the past to collect sums owed other CIGSA judgment
creditors.

Please take this prohibition as applying even to cases where CIGSA might be
entitled to the money or the property under our contracts with them, or where
the funds or property are in joint venture acounts or custody in the US or
Mexico until we have had a chance to review matters in detail and make a more
accurate assessment. In the meantime, effective immediately, do not make ANY
payments to or on behalf of, or release ANY property to or on behalf of, any
CIGSA entity without first obtaining legal department approval. The court may
impose penalties for violations  of its garnishment order.

We will assemble an appropriate litigation team to work onthis matter. Randy
Pais will be handling this for EEOS legal. I suggest that Mike Pearson and
Mark Brand get the word out to the Project Management and Project Control
teams on  this matter ASAP.

Please consider the attached e-mail from your perspective as we consider the
feasibility of forming a Canadian subsidiary of DealBench L.L.C., a Delaware
limited liability company wholly-owned by Enron Net Works, LLC.  DealBench
conducts an e-commerce business facilitating the conduct of transactions on
the Internet through licensing arrangements.  Brenda Funk had suggested you
as a starting point from the tax perspective which usually is the primary
driver of these types of issues.  Let us know if we can provide additional
information.  Thanks for your help.

Brenda, could you please investigate formation of a DealBench subsidiary
formed under Canadian (Ontario) law?  Initial issues include limited
liability status (form of entity), control (any necessity for Canadian
ownership or representation in management?), repatriation, tax, timing, and
cost of formation and maintenance.  At this point, we only are ascertaining
feasibility.  Depending upon whether this seems practical, we should at some
point involve appropriate ENA tax and accounting teams.  Let me know results
of initial investigation and we can determine next steps.  If we need outside
counsel input on Canadian issues, start with Bob Baird for direction.

Nora,

We may have an opportunity to do several auctions for the Ontario Electricity
Finance Corp through a contact I have at Enron Canada (Aleck Dadson).  Aleck
mentioned that we might have a better chance to close the deal if DealBench
could be presented as a Canadian product.

How difficult, costly and time intensive would it be to create a sub called
DealBench Canada (or DealBench Maple Leaf or whatever)?  Just wanted to get
your thoughts on whether this is even a possibility.

India Dabhol Creditors: Mtg In Singapore "Productive"

02/22/2002
Dow Jones Energy Service
(Copyright (c) 2002, Dow Jones & Company, Inc.)
SINGAPORE -(Dow Jones)- Financiers of Enron Corp.'s (ENE) US$2.9 billion Indian power unit, the Dabhol Power Co., described two-day talks that concluded in Singapore Thursday as "productive," according to a statement issued Friday.
"The meetings were productive and a plan of action is being developed," said the statement from the steering committee representing Dabhol's international lenders.
"The meetings were confidential in nature, and therefore no further detail can be provided," it said.
Dabhol's Indian and foreign lenders were meeting behind closed doors earlier this week to discuss ways to revive the ailing power project.
Dabhol, the largest foreign investment project in India, has been mired in conflict since 1995 due to payment disputes with its sole customer, the Maharashtra State Electricity Board.
Lenders to the beleaguered company are keen to find a buyer for the 85% foreign equity, which includes Enron's 65% controlling stake.

Earlier this week, A.K. Doda, executive director of the Industrial Development Bank of India (P.IDB), told Dow Jones Newswires the lenders' meeting would finalize a due-diligence time frame for prospective buyers of Dabhol's foreign-held equity.
A source close to the international lenders suggested further lenders' meetings in the future.
"We are still in productive dialogue, but where and when there will be meetings has not been decided," the source said.
"It's natural to expect that there will be follow-up meetings at some stage," he added.
India's Tata Power Co. (P.TPW), BSES Ltd. (P.BSX), U.K.'s BG Group PLC (BRG), Gaz de France (F.GAF), the Royal Dutch/Shell Group (RD) and India's largest gas distributor and marketer, the state-owned Gas Authority of India Ltd. (P.GAI), have expressed interest in bidding for Dabhol's foreign equity.
Dabhol's domestic lenders include IDBI, ICICI Ltd. (IC), IFCI Ltd. (P.ICI) and the State Bank of India (P.SBI).
Loans by foreign lenders - including investing bank ABN Amro, Bank of America Corp. (BAC) and Citigroup Inc. (C) - are backed by government guarantees. Domestic lenders' loans aren't.
Aside from Enron's 65% controlling stake, Dabhol's remaining foreign equity is held by General Electric Co. (GE) and Bechtel (X.BTL), who each hold a 10% stake. The Maharashtra State Electricity Board holds the remaining 15%.

Jeb Bush Had Profit on Enron Unit
April Witt

02/22/2002
The Washington Post
FINAL
Page A04
Copyright 2002, The Washington Post Co. All Rights Reserved
Florida Gov. Jeb Bush invested in a publicly traded Enron Corp. partnership in 1995 and turned a modest profit before selling it less than a year later.
Bush invested $91,527 in Enron Liquids Pipeline LP in February 1995 and realized a profit of just $7,118 when he sold it 10 months later, according to his 1995 tax returns.
Justice Department and congressional investigators and securities regulators are investigating the role Enron's off-the-books partnerships played in the company's collapse last fall, in which thousands of people lost their jobs and life savings. One of the biggest single losers was Florida's pension fund.
The focus is on partnerships run by former Enron chief financial officer Andrew S. Fastow, none of which were publicly traded.
Former Enron president Richard Kinder -- who recently hosted a $500-a-person political fundraiser for Bush in Houston -- now controls Enron Liquids Pipeline. Kinder and a partner bought it for $40 million in 1997, and it became the basis for Kinder Morgan Energy Partners.
Bush did not know Kinder at the time he invested in the partnership, Katie Baur, the governor's spokeswoman, said yesterday. At the time, Bush was a businessman who had just lost an election for the Florida governorship. Baur said he invested in Enron Liquids Pipeline on advice from his broker at Charles Schwab Corp. -- not insider information about the future sale.
"Why not this investment?" Baur said. "Any Joe Schmo citizen could have walked in off the street and requested to invest in Enron Liquid Pipelines."
Still, Baur said that she expects Democrats to try to capitalize on Bush's investment in Enron Liquid Pipelines. "Admittedly, anything with the word Enron in it is incendiary," she said.
"You could look at this backward and forward, but the facts are pretty simple. He made one investment and made $7,000 . . . This isn't like Hillary Clinton's cattle futures here."

Enron has deal to sell wind unit / GE purchasing one of largest assets left
ERIC BERGER

02/21/2002
Houston Chronicle
3 STAR
Page 6
(Copyright 2002 Houston Chronicle)
Enron agreed Wednesday to sell to General Electric Co. its California-based wind-turbine unit, one of its largest remaining assets that could be used to pay creditors.
Terms of the deal for the largest U.S. manufacturer of wind turbines were not disclosed, but an attorney familiar with it said it was worth $250 million in cash, and GE agreed to assume more than $100 million in debt and other obligations.
GE's Power Systems unit will acquire Enron Wind's turbine- manufacturing operation. Last year the company had nearly $800 million in worldwide sales and 1,500 employees.
Enron will retain control of six wind farms it owns or operates in the United States, and three in Europe.
The deal still must be approved by federal regulators and New York bankruptcy Judge Arthur Gonzalez.
Enron Wind was one of three major assets the company can sell that do not have liens. For that reason they have been closely watched by the company's unsecured creditors, who are owed billions.
The unit filed for bankruptcy court protection Wednesday, joining dozens of other Enron subsidiaries in the Enron Corp. case before Gonzalez. This will allow GE to complete the sale free of creditors' claims.
GE said it expected the sale to close in April 2002.
Gonzalez has already approved the sale of Enron's oil and gas fields in India, Enron Oil & Gas Ltd., to the British company BG Group for $350 million.
The third asset that can be sold is Portland General Electric Co. Its sale to Northwest Natural Gas Co. for $2.9 billion is expected to be approved by regulators by year's end.
The wind unit, founded in 1981 as Zond Corp., was acquired in 1997 by Enron.
The new owner will be able to invest much needed capital to fund Enron Wind's expansion which Enron could no longer provide, said Stanley Horton, chairman and CEO of Enron Global Services, Enron Wind's parent company.
Wind industry advocates hailed the sale.
"We're very excited about it," said Randy Swisher, executive director of American Wind Energy Association. "It's one more indication that wind energy technology has finally come of age."
Swisher welcomed GE's entry into the wind energy business, which has doubled nationally about every three years, he said.
Several wind projects in Texas, including a 220-megawatt site in Culberson County, a 161-megawatt site in Pecos County serving San Antonio and a 150-megawatt site in Nolan and Taylor counties, use Enron Wind turbines.
A 150-megawatt site can power up to 75,000 homes.

Enron unit investment made profit for Jeb Bush
Associated Press
WASHINGTON -- Jeb Bush invested about $91,000 and turned a small profit in 1995 from an Enron partnership, tax records indicate.
The enterprise now is controlled by a former Enron president who has been helping the Florida governor raise money for his re-election bid.
Bush's investment in Enron Liquids L.P. three years before he became governor is the only known investment by a member of President Bush's immediate family in an Enron partnership.
Investigators have been looking at some of Enron's privately traded partnerships as contributors to the company's collapse. Enron Liquids, however, was publicly traded and is not part of the investigation.
Jeb Bush's investment brought him a $7,000 profit, according to his 1995 tax return.
"It was an investment for less than a year and it was done long before last year's bankruptcy," the governor said this week.
President Bush said last month that his mother-in-law was among Enron Corp. stockholders who lost money on the failed company -- about $8,100.
Spokeswoman Katie Baur said Thursday the Jeb Bush investment was chosen for him by an investment advisory firm.
Democrats eager to defeat the president's brother in the fall election are trying to make an issue of his ties to Enron.
In a state whose pension fund lost more than $300 million in the collapse, Bush's fund-raising trip to the Houston home of former Enron president Richard Kinder "rubs in the face of people who lost their life savings," the chairman of the Florida Democratic Party said last month. The Bush camp said it saw no problem, since Kinder left Enron in 1996.
Aside from the two fund-raisers, the two men have had infrequent contact, said Larry Pierce, a spokesman for Kinder's energy company. The two men have run into each other occasionally at public events and they have never had any business relationship, he added.
Kinder "hosted these fund-raisers as a favor to the Republican Party," said Pierce.
"What Democrats are doing nationally in trying to capitalize on the suffering of Enron employees for their own cheap political gain is absolutely shameful," said Karen Unger, the governor's campaign manager. She called it "an act of sheer desperation" by the Democrats. Bush released his tax return four years ago.
Kinder's latest event for Bush was a $500-per-person fund-raiser on Jan. 17 for about 100 political donors at Kinder's home.
Kinder is a longtime political supporter of the Bush family and the Republican Party with contributions totaling hundreds of thousands of dollars dating to 1988.
In 1997 after leaving Enron, Kinder and a partner paid $40 million for the general partnership that ran Enron Liquids, a pipeline network carrying liquid natural gas.
Kinder, Enron's president from 1990 to 1996, was the heir apparent to Chairman Ken Lay. But Kinder resigned when Lay decided to stay on for another five-year term. Kinder's successor, Jeff Skilling, is among those at the center of the various investigations into Enron's collapse.
Bush's re-election effort is one of the major gubernatorial races this fall. Former Clinton Attorney General Janet Reno is one of four Democrats seeking a chance to run against him in November.
Enron's bankruptcy has reverberated in Florida, where losses in the state's $94 billion pension fund are greater than in any other state.
Bush, the state treasurer and the state comptroller oversee the agency in charge of investing the state pension fund.
One of about 70 money managers the state of Florida contracted with was buying Enron stock even after the Securities and Exchange Commission began investigating the energy giant and its business practices.

I was incorrect.  The existing non-recourse debt for Las Vegas ($55MM) is off-balance sheet and off-credit.  It does not show up as a liability on our balance sheet and it is not part of our footnotes.   If the plant blew up, we would be out $24MM, not $79MM.  We get this treatment because it is a fair market value asset and we have a Friend of Enron minority investor that keeps our stated interest below 50%.  Our interest for control purposes is over 50% because we have a call option on the Friend of Enron shares.

I have attached a credit worksheet per Sara's request in order to amend the B

document for holding and use of collateral so that we may be able to
rehypothecate collateral.  I have tried to construct the worksheet terms such
that they reflect what is in the current document, but the old document terms
should govern in the case of a discrepancy.  I will be out tomorrow, so
please contact Bill with questions.
