Copies will be distributed.
Subject: Counterparty Approval List for 02/17/00

Attached is the referenced counterparty approval list.
On Encal, the only  amended counterparty, I don't know if this is a change or not from the prior  approval, but Leslie shut them down for power.
All other prior approvals for  that counterparty should remain the same.
Subject: Credit Derivatives - Approved Jurisdictions

This will confirm our conversation today regarding which European  jurisdictions are approved for trading credit derivatives:  the U.K., Sweden,  Norway, Finland and Switzerland.
The European jurisdictions which are not approved to trade credit derivatives  include:  France, Germany, Gibraltar, Ireland, Italy, Scotland, Spain, and  The Netherlands.
For banks incorporated in a non-approved jurisdiction, it  may be possible for them to trade out of a branch located in an approved  jurisdiction (i.e.
U.S. and U.K. branches).
This would have to be  determined on a case by case basis.
Per our conversation, Canada is also not an approved jurisdiction for credit  derivatives.
Please let me know if there are any changes to this list.
Subject: Counterparty Clarification

Per my conversation with Credit, it appears there are two Northern States  Power Companies.
We have already reviewed Northern States Power Company, a  Minnesota corporation (cpy ID #265).
The counterparty that showed up on  yesterday's list is Northern States Power Company, a Wisconsin corporation  (cpy ID #161).
The Wisconsin corporation is a sub of the Minnesota  corporation.
I don't know if this makes any difference in your approvals...
Subject: 400 and counting...

With the execution of the Wisconsin Gas Company master, this brings the total  executed financial masters to 400.
The countdown to 500 executed financial  masters is now starting!
Congratulations to the Legal and Credit teams for  getting us to this point and for a job well done!
Subject: EOL-Pan Canadian

Rick Tucker at Pan Canadian (he used to be at PG&E) called and has been  speaking to Willie Harrell on the Confirm Desk, and I believe Willie spoke to  Mark about this issue yesterday, but it appears to be unresolved and I think  Mark was going to talk to you about it.
Pan Canadian is doing EOL trades, and wants to know why he keeps getting the  online confirms w/the GTC's attached since the way the system is set up he  technically is already agreeing to the GTC's online.
He feels he is having  to look at a lot of unnecessary paper.
Rick will be out of the office Friday and Monday, but was hoping you could  give him a call Tuesday to discuss this issue.
His phone # is 713/331-5049.
FYI, we do not have a master in place with Pan Canadian Energy Services.
Subject: Counterparty Approval Lists for 2/29/00 and 3/02/00

Attached please find the referenced lists.
Please note:  Tampa Electric Company can do power sells only.
Even though Peoples Gas is a  division of Tampa Electric, it cannot trade power because its power marketing  license was not granted in that name.
Further, I earlier shut down Tampa  Electric Company for financial trading, and I am now opening them up for  financial trading, either as Tampa Electric or Peoples Gas.
Subject: Dynegy Canada, Inc.

I am confirming my conversation with you yesterday and my conversation a  minute ago with Lori Volpi at Dynegy Canada.
As we discussed, Dynegy Canada  is trading with both ECC and ENA, with the bulk of its trading being done  with ECC.
Instead of getting two ISDA Master Agreements in place, we will  enter into an ISDA Master Agreement between ECC and Dynegy Canada, and then  just back-to-back any ENA trades down to Houston by virtue of the Services  Agreement for Financial Agreements we have in place between ECC and ENA.
Per my conversation with Lori, this will also work with the EOL trades since  the Electronic Trading Agreement provides that any financial trades done for  either ECC or ENA will be transacted under the respective master agreement in  place with either ECC or ENA.
Works for me...!
Subject: Addition to Tomorrow's EOL List

I had Calpine Power Services Company shut down for financial, and we got the  master in signed, so I am going to open them up.
Can you add them to  tomorrow's list.
Thanks!
Subject: Revised counterparty list for credit derivatives approval

I don't know what list you are working from for your approval of credit  derivatives, but attached is the list EOL sent me.
Many of the  counterparties on the list are London based credit counterparties, and I will  not be reviewing those, but I thought you might want to take a look at this  to see if it's jiving with what you're looking at.
When I'm done (probably  some time at end of the day since I just got the list yesterday and it's due  today!
), I will be emailing my approvals to Mark Dilworth in London.
Subject: Update to Approved Jurisdictions - Credit Derivatives

Per my conversation with Edmund this morning, we are moving Germany to the  approved list for trading credit derivatives.
Below is the list, now updated  to reflect this change.
European jurisdictions which are are approved for trading credit  derivatives:  Finland, Germany, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, and the U.K..
The European jurisdictions which are not approved to trade credit derivatives  include:  France, Gibraltar, Ireland, Italy, Scotland, Spain, and The  Netherlands.
For banks incorporated in a non-approved jurisdiction, it may  be possible for them to trade out of a branch located in an approved  jurisdiction (i.e.
U.S. and U.K. branches).
This would have to be  determined on a case by case basis.
Canada is also not an approved jurisdiction for credit derivatives.
Please let me know if there are any changes to this list.
Subject: EOL Legal Database

To confirm our conversation, can you add "Credit Derivatives" as a new  products to my database.
We will need the same drop downs as the other  produsts (gas trading, financial trading, etc.).
Thanks!

Subject: Files

We have some files in an empty cubicle that kinda look like global contract  files.
They have global contract sheets and numbers attached to the front of  the documents in the files.
If they belong to anyone in your group they need  to be claimed now, because we are doing a cubicle restructuring this weekend  and those files will be moved and if unclaimed eventually gotten rid of.
Can  you have someone come
Subject: another addition to list

Please add TXU Energy Trading Company to list.
We had an old style "ERMS"  master in place, so they weren't allowed to do power, but now we have an ISDA  in place (even tho' Brant Reves threw out the new guaranty, but that is  another story!
), so I am going to open them up for weather.
Subject: Credit Counterparty Approval List

Attached is the referenced list.
I am responsible for those counterparties  originating from Houston Credit.
Edmund Cooper is responsible for the UK  Credit based counterparties.
I am still resolving issues on about 8-10  counterparties.
If something doesn't make sense, let me know.
Subject: Updated Jurisdiction List-Credit Derivatives

Per my conversation with Edmund this morning, we are moving the following  countries to the non-approved list:  Austria, Belgium, Croatia, Czech  Republic, Denmark, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Singapore, and Slovenia.
Below  is the list, now updated to reflect this change.
Jurisdictions which are are approved to trade credit derivatives:  Finland,  Germany, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, the U.K, and the U.S..

Subject: Another NYMEX Shindig

We've received a personal invitation to a NYMEX  Crawfish Boil on April 3 at  5:00 at Garden in the Heights at 3926 Feagan.
The cause of this celebration  is the 10th anniversary of the Nat Gas futures contract.
It would be nice if  Shankman and John Arnold could attend.
Perhaps you can give them a personal  invitation...
Subject: BC Gas Amendment

We have received the amendment to the BC Gas ISDA Master executed by BC Gas,  which adds the Canadian Securities Representation, so we don't have to add  the rep into every confirm.
BC Gas won't sign the confirms with the rep in,  and this has caused much difficulties.
I am going to count it as signed,  since BC Gas has signed, but we still need it to be signed by ECC.
Can you  get it signed ASAP and back to me.
Much thanks.
Subject: WeatherTrade, Inc.

We have received the executed  Amendment to the Subscription Agreement with  WeatherTrade, Inc. dated March 2, 2000.
This Amendment amends the  Transaction Fee referenced in subparagraph (c) of the Fee Schedule to the  Subscription Agreement.
Copies will be distributed.
Subject: Change on Approval List for 3/8

It appears you missed some cpys on the referenced list because Tom had the  freeze panel button on, and you probably didn't see them at first.
I didn't  either until I clicked on the down button and they popped up.
When you have  a minute, I'll give me a call and I'll come around and show you how to  unfreeze the panel.
Subject: Credit Derivatives-FYI

I spoke to Edmund to get the scoop on what we are going to be doing on the  confirms for Credit Derivatives, and he said that his current understanding  is that all of the confirms will be done out of London.
I communicated that  to Bob Bowen.
He also said that London was going to be hiring 120 people to  deal with the Credit Derivatives business.
Wow!
Subject: BC Gas Utility Ltd./ECC

We have received the executed First Amendment to ISDA Master Agreement dated  as of December 1, 1999.
This amendment adds the British Columbia Securities  Act representation to the master.
Copies will be distributed.
Confirmation Desk:  you can stop adding the rep to the confirms now.
Subject: 2000 Supplement to the 1993 ISDA Commodity Derivatives Definitions

ISDA has published the referenced supplement.
Among other changes, the  supplement adds hundreds of new gas, liquids and power price sources.
Copies  will be distributed to you.
Subject: Counterparty Approval List for 03/09/00

Attached is the referenced list.
Some comments:  We got a master financial  agreement in place with Calpine Power Services  Company so it has been opened  up to trade all financial.
Also, we replaced the old style "ERMS Master"  with an ISDA, so I am opening TXU Energy Trading Company for all financial  products as well.
For Trammo Gas, we got a letter from them a while back, reflecting under  what  names they can do financial trading under (I sent you all an email  about this about a month to two months ago).
That letter had the  counterparty styled "Transammonia, Inc. acting through its  Trammo Gas  Division".
I believe I already siad they could trade financial under that  name.
Let's just be consistent about how we deal with these divisions...
Subject: Online Trading for Australia

David,  I know we've met before on your visits to Houston, I am a paralegal in the  ENA Legal Department, in the Swap Group under Mark Taylor.
I am the lead  contact in ENA Legal for counterparty approvals and day to day trading issues  for EnronOnline.
I coordinate responses for the whole Legal Trading Group  (financial, physical, power and emerging markets) with the EnronOnline and  Credit teams.
I understand from my EnronOnline team that I am going to need to approve  financial trading for all my Houston based counterparties a week from  Friday.
Right now that list stands at about 600 counterparties (already  trading).
I was hoping you could direct me as to what restrictions, if any,  we might have for financial trading in Australia.
Are there any restricted  counterparties, such as governmentals, utilities, banks, dealers, etc., or  any restrictions on the products traded (initially I know we are only trading  financial power, although I'm sure the list will expand over time).
Have  your GTC's been drafted with cross-border trading in mind?
Similarly, I assume there will be Australian counterparties signing up to  trade, and the commercial team will want them approved to trade the whole  range of EnronOnline products.
Are there any provisions we must add to the  form of North American product GTCs if our counterparties trade a North  American product from Australia?
Do we have any tax issues or language we  need to cover?
Our standard form of GTC includes New York law and  arbitration.
Will that be enforceable in Australia?
Are there any issues we  need to address if we require collateral (a guaranty or letter of credit)  with respect to a trade?
Thanks for your help!
Subject: Koch Hydrocarbons - Bad Name

Per my conversation a minute ago with the Koch lawyer in Kansas, Tye Darland,  "Koch Hydrocarbons, Inc." is a bad name.
The correct legal name for this  counterparty should be the same as it is set up in our Master Swap Agreement  database:  "Koch Industries, Inc., acting through its Koch Hydrocarbon  Company Division".
I have called the Koch trader, James "Doug" Peters  (713/544-5938, ext.
5602) , and asked him to resubmit the Password  Application with the name corrected.
Please show this correction in your  records as well.
Subject: Online Trading

Several things are not very clear to me and I need to run them by you.
1.
From your email it appears to me that there would be no legal reason  prohibiting your Australian based counterparties from trading all of the  products we offer, however, except for financial Australian power, the  contracting Enron entity will have to be the party referenced on the  particular product.
It appears that the only product Credit has currently  opened the Australian based counterparties to trade anyway is Australian  financial power.
2.
Will you be approving the Australian based counterparties for trading?
Dave Forster appears to want me to approve Australian based counterparties  too, which doesn't make sense to me and Mark Taylor.
What are your thoughts  on this?
I guess EnronOnline just does not want a third Legal contract they  are going to have to deal with on an ongoing basis.
FYI,  I currently do not  approve the London based counterparties.
3.
The Australian company number.
Does that have to go on every  confirmation done with an Australian counterparty?
If it does we will need  to make sure that it gets put on every confirmation.
It is my understanding  that the confirmations for online trading will be generated from Houston so  we will have to provide every company number to the Houston Confirmation Desk.
FYI, tomorrow at the end of the day is my drop dead time to get all the  counterparies approved, because the information will have to be loaded in by  London when they arrive for work Friday morning.
Subject: New Australian Financial Power Product

As you may or may not be aware of, tomorrow is the drop dead date for  approval of the referenced new product for our existing approved counterparty  list.
Thinking through this product today and reading through my various  emails from David Minns, I have come to the conclusion that there are no  particular issues specifically relating to Australian financial power, and my  thinking is to just mirror the approval for some other previously approved  financial power product.
I can't, obviously, speak for you, but it seems to  me that that should work for your counterparty lists too.
What do you think?
The list I am working off of is the list generated for Credit Derivative  approvals (which is the most somewhat current list of counterparties who have  been issued passwords).
Subject: Online Trading Australian Financial Power GTC

Mark Taylor, who is in Amsterdam this week, just left me a voicemail  reflecting a conversation he just had with Dave Forster, and asked me to  relay the following information to you (don't kill me, I'm just the  messenger)...  With respect to your form of online GTC:  It need to be revised, per Dave Forster by Monday, to be expanded to include  the provisions necessary that will enable a non-Australian based counterparty  (a counterparty could be U.S., Canadian, European or other country based),  who may or may not have an ISDA Master Agreement in place, and may or may not  have credit in place, to do a financial power transaction with Enron  Australia.
In that regard I am attaching as a template, our form of online  "Deemed ISDA" GTC (for a weather transaction, the only type of financial  transaction where we adopt the ISDA documentation instead of using our own  form of confirmation).
As you can see when you look at our "Deemed ISDA" form of confirmation, there  are a number of provisions that our Deemed ISDA form of confirmation  includes, such as authority and tax representations, "arm's length  transaction" reps, acting as a principal rep, the deletion of section  2(c)(ii) of the ISDA Schedule (netting "in respect of the same transaction"),  no language that each party has a copy of the ISDA form and has read it and  understands it, your deletion of language re: written confirmations,  definition of "Transaction" meaning the GTC+ISDA form+website terms,  "Website" (uppercased) is a defined term under the Password Application, we  usually say "Loss" instead of "Market Quotation", also,  Market Quotation and  Second Method will apply for the purposes of Section 6(e), a question, do we  need the word "integrated" with respect to the rerenced that the documents  contain a "single agreement" to fall under the U.S. bankruptcy swap  protection?, no ducment conflict provisions, missing our "severability" and  "setoff" language, no adoption of the 1991 or 1993 Commodity definitions,  business day defined as Sydney only, etc.
Of course, you do not have these in your form of GTC, because they are or  will be covered in your executed ISDA Master Agreement, but it is likely  counterparties outside of Australia may not have a master swap agreement in  place.
I spoke to Steve Douglas in Tax, who is out of town today and was going to  talk to Susan Musch about the tax issues and I hope to hear from him tomorrow.
After all the above, I just have to say...we really do appreciate your help  resolving all these issues...
Subject: Australian Approvals

Attached is the list reflecting the approval of the initial Australian  counterparties to trade Australian financial power only.
David Minns will  have to get back to us about all the other products!
For the current U.S. list of counterparties, just mirror the approvals for  "US Power Financial Swaps".
I will review the list Debbie is sending me tomorrow to see if any of her  approvals conflicts with my earlier approvals, but I think we should be fine.
Subject: ENA Legal Online Trading Database

I have developed a database in which I keep track of the counterparties Legal  has approved, any supporting rationale for approval of each counterparty (I  'm giving away my secret that I just don't approve them on on pure whim!)
and  the products such counterparties are approved to trade.
Additionally, at the  bottom of each entry there is a listing of any amendment to the Password  Application, ETA , GTC, or any other online documentation.
The information for the financial products is pretty accurate (I may have  missed an entry here or there in trying to enter 6 months of memos and excel  spreadsheets.
If I have missed a counterparty let me know).
The information  for Power has been updated only since this database was in production, about  6-7 weeks ago.
I am going to have to go back and input the power data from  the original approval lists.
As for gas trading and emerging products, we have never yet had a  counterparty that we have had an issue with, so no information has been  entered for those products.
You should count them as being approved for  everything.
Eventually, if we continue not to use those dropdowns, I will  delete them.
I don't know if you will find this information helpful or not, take a look  and I will be glad to hear any input.
Obviously, we are all working out the  kinks and finding out what is useful and what is not useful as we go along,  so this database may evolve over time.
The only people who should have change access are the Legal team (Mike  Neves:  Mark Taylor, Carol St Clair, Leslie Hansen, Marie Heard and myself).
Let me know if you have change access by mistake.
On a closing note, please try to keep the information in the database  confidential to the group we have granted view access to.
Do not forward this  email on to anyone as it will grant access without my approval.
Much  thanks!
Subject: Counterparty Approvals for 03/15/00 and 03/17/00

Please find attached referenced lists.
It is not clear to me yet how we are  going to deal with Australian approvals, so I think at this point you need to  look to Australia for approval of their counterparties.
Also, there were no  counterparties to approve on 3/16/00 so that list is not attached.
I haven't said it in a while...but no European power for US counterparties...
Subject: NYMEX Access

The NYMEX has approved all of your applications and you should all have  access to the system and be able to trade (everyone except Dana Davis, who  still needs to complete his training).
Please let me know if you cannot log  in.
I spoke to the NYMEX a minute ago and there is no reason from their  perspective why you should not be able to log in.
