Subject: Change of Control Provisions


As many of you know, I have a provision in my employment contract which provides for a payment of $20 million per year for the remaining term of my contract in the event of a change of control of Enron.
The merger with Dynegy, or a similar transaction with any other company, would trigger this provision on closing.
Assuming the merger with Dynegy is closed within 6-9 months, as we expect, this provision would entitle me to total payments of slightly more than $60 million.
Many CEOs have change of control provisions in their employment contracts and mine has been in place since 1989.
But given the current circumstances facing the company and our employees, I have been giving a lot of thought these last few days to what to do about this payment.
Initially, I thought I would use part of the funds for a foundation for our employees and take the remainder in stock and cash.
However, after talking to a number of employees this afternoon, I have decided that the best course of action would be for me to waive my right to any of this payment.
Therefore, at closing, I will receive no payments under this provision.
I know this action does not remedy the uncertainty that you and your families face.
But please know that I will continue to do everything in my power to serve the best interests of Enron's employees and shareholders.
I am still very proud of what we have built at Enron, and I want to continue working with all of you to correct the problems and restore Enron to its rightful place in the energy industry.
Thank you.

Subject: Ski Trip 2002


Hello Everyone,   Well, I looked around again for another inexpensive  ski trip for us to take this year.
The path has seemed to lead the same  direction as it did last year.
Lake Tahoe is by far the cheapest  package deal I can find.
I have already spoken to most of you who went  last year and everyone seems to agree it was a good time and great  atmosphere.
The dates for this adventure are leaving the evening of  January 30th (Wed.) and returning on Febuary 3rd (Sun.).
The vacation package is through Southwest Airlines  Vacations.
We will stay at the Horizon Casino for 4  nights.
We will depart: Houston Hobby Airport @ 4:50 pm with a short stop  in Las Vegas and arrive into Reno at 9:20 pm.
We will then go by Charter  bus to Lake Tahoe.
Leaving Lake Tahoe: Our plane will depart Reno at 12:10 pm on direct  route to Houston arriving at 6:50 pm.
And you ask how much for all this  excitement?
This can be all yours for 359.75 per person.
This price is for two people per room.
I will need to know who would like  to go no later than Wednesday  afternoon so I can set up reservations.
These  trips are booking fast.
We will be able to do like last year.
I will  call in the reservations and then each individual person will be able to call  Southwest directly and bill the trip to their own credit card.
The only  other expenses to be prepaid are for ski lift tickets and roundtrip transfer  from the airport to the hotel and back.
This cost is $30.
I figure  we will discuss the lift ticket options.
Some people may want to  Snowmobile a day or do something else.
We will discuss these options  further after the trip is set.
Hope to see everyone there.
The snow is  looking good up there so far.
They had 24" on the mountain  yesterday.
Mason is going.
I just don't have his e-mail  address but he said to count him in.

Subject: New Years


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

Subject: Headcount for 1998 - 2001


Sally, The attached file shows the detail of plan headcount for December 31, 1998 through 2001.
The only number that I still have a question about, is for EGM December 2001, the number I have in the file only represents the people moving into Networks from EGM (Brent's group).
I left a message with Tom Myers, to get the correct number.
I have also added the graphs that we discussed, which show increase in headcount along with increase in deal counts.
If you have any questions, let me know.
Thanks,

He took your names because he wanted to know who to thank for this.
His comments are based on the summary graph - his words - EGM has by far the most books but never shows up on the log - who can we thank for that?

Subject: Update on SAP System Response


As you may recall, the SAP system response time was slow during the September Quarter-end close period.
The Integrated Solutions Center (ISC) has been working diligently to address the root causes of this issue and can report that significant progress has been made.
With the October month-end close fast approaching, we want to provide you with an update as to the progress made in identifying and addressing the root causes for slow system response.
Poor Performing Programs The ISC has identified a number of poor performing programs.
Some program redesign has already occurred with continued efforts proceeding through year end.
In addition, system and data base parameters as well as indexes have been tuned.
These actions have resulted in improvements that should enable Enron to realize better system response in the upcoming close.
Workload Distribution The ISC has identified jobs, both scheduled and user submitted, that result in system "bottlenecks".
We have accelerated the purchase of system hardware to provide additional capacity and expect this upgrade to occur prior to year-end close.
In addition, the ISC has implemented a plan to provide business users with more information regarding efficient methods of report execution.
Workshops are currently being conducted with key "close-users" from the various business units to provide techniques that will enable more efficient report execution during the close process.
Improved Close Monitoring The ISC has been working to heighten the monitoring of key close jobs in order to more effectively identify and resolve close related issues.
An initiative is underway to improve the utilization of automated tools to better monitor, identify, and escalate close-related problems.
Communication Strategy Implement The ISC has established a plan to more effectively communicate to our customers in the event of future system performance issues.
This plan will ensure that information will be provided to users regarding system performance and resolution status in a timely manner.
Please feel free to contact me if you would like additional details regarding our efforts to improve overall system performance.
Subject: Status of the sale of POPS to AEP


We are getting closer to finishing up the agreement to sale a license to use POPS and its source code to AEP.
It looks like we agree in principal but I'm not comfortable with some of the language proposed by AEP.
Since Barbara Gary is out until next Tuesday I don't anticipate us finishing up the agreement until the end of next week at the earliest.
Given the timing we need to be able to turn around and deliver the application & documentation by the end of November in order to receive all of the funds this year.
I will be setting up a meeting with the application, DBA, DA and technical writing teams to make sure we are all on the same page and ready to deliver the application by the end of November.

I'm also working with Evan Hughes and Murray O'Neal in Beth Apollo's group to define roles/interface points for DG and Load Curtailment products (on the billing/settlement side).
Finally, I'm working with the team that is attempting to define consolodated Risk Systems (Dayao/Accencur et all)  a)  could Lloyd and I get a high level org chart for your org so we recognize/understand/get to know your folks?

Subject: Numbers


To set the record straight, EES are maintaining their business as usual stance.
This means that Anthony does NOT have to cut any people if he so wishes.

Subject: Missed our Timing


I didn't get back from the meeting with Causey and Buy until just before 6:00  today - not that the meeting was long - Rick Causey was just running late so  we cooled our heels outside his office for quite a while before getting  started.
I decided that midnight would be outside the bounds of office  dedication, so I did not call!
Enjoy your time off tomorrow and on Monday.
My plans are to take off next week, and to be back in the office to work the  week between Christmas and New Years.
I wouldn't recommend taking your time  during your day off to call, but if you finish your Christmas shopping and do  want to call, my calendar is free all afternoon after lunch tomorrow.
Wish I  could send you with a shopping list for me!

Subject: Dinner with UT Students


I sent an e:mail message yesterday saying that I could make dinner in Austin  on Wednesday, October 25.
That date does not work for me now.
I need to  attend a get together for the CommodityLogic team that evening, that was just  set up today.
As of last week, I am now co-leading CommodityLogic (under  Enron Networks) along with Tom Gros.
This is in addition to my role within  ENA.
As a new lead over the group, it is important for me to join the team  for their team building next Wednesday.
Let me know whether or not you have enough takers for dinner in Austin next  week.
If you are short, let me know and I will see what I can do on another  night that week.

Attached is a memo that I have sent to Mike Jordan regarding the Operations  Controller forum set for October 22, 23 and 24.
I want to send the official  invitation early next week.
I have conferred with Mike on attendees from  EEL.

Please let me know your thoughts on attendees per the attached.
Mike was not sure that you would want to be included, but I certainly want to  invite you and would very much welcome your attendance.

Subject: United Way Kick Off


Great job, as usual, on the United Way kick off today.
I saw Amy Leeand  Eylesse Kalmans as I left the Hyatt and I told them.
Please pass the kudos  along to the rest of your team.
The theme was timely, the staging was great,  the questions on the gameshow were even educational for newer Enron  employees, giving a little histsory and folklore about Enron.
(I knew the  WLEC 1 answer!)
I especially enjoyed the breakfast at Depelchin last Friday.
Their programs  are important to all of us and the tour was very moving as we met some of the  children in the shelter.
Subject: United Way Executive Solicitation


The United Way Executive Solicitiation is underway.
You should have received  an e:mail message about a week or ten days ago which let you know that you  this year pledges should be made on line.
Mark Frevert reminded everyone at  today's ENA staff meeting to complete their pledges by Tuesday, August 8.
If  you have not already done so, I would encourage you to complete your pledges  before Tuesday.
Patti Thompson can tell you where to go on line to do this.
Peggy:  United Way may not apply in Canada, so ignore this if not  appropriate.
Subject: Accomplishments


Attached are my accomplishments for the first half of 2000.

Hopefully, better late than  never.
I am not certain how the coporate-wide PRC process will work in late  July for VP's.
I have provided a copy of this to Dave Delainey for the ENA  PRC which will take place on July 7.
I thought that I would provide you a  copy as well.
I will also have Patti deliver a hard copy to Sharron next week.
Subject: People to consider recruiting


I asked my new hire to suggest names of people that she knows that would be  good for to consider hiring.
Here is her response.
Tony Vasut had called  her and asked for this list as well.
Do you have him keyed in on our blitz  effort for hiring of risk personnel?
Or is he working on some other  initiative?
I have not reviewed the names nor Shona's comments in detail  yet, but I wanted to pass these along for inclusion in our efforts.
