Subject: Meeting with Mayor Willie L. Brown, Jr.

Dear Mr. Skilling,  On behalf of Mayor Willie L. Brown, Jr. (San Francisco), it is my pleasure to invite you to meet with him regarding energy issues in California.
Mayor Brown wishes to meet with you in his capacity as a trustee of the Board of Administration of the California Public Employees Retirement System (CalPERS).
As you know, CalPERS is the largest public pension fund in the nation and is a sizeable investor in domestic energy stocks, bonds, debentures, etc.
The Board has appointed Mayor Brown to lead a delegation of trustees to meet with the CEOs of CalPERS' largest energy holdings.
Enron represents one such holding.
The Mayor would be pleased to host you in his office at the newly renovated City Hall in San Francisco or arrange an alternative location at your earliest convenience.
I will await your response.
Sincerely,
Subject: Leadership of the Xcelerator & John Echols

Mr Skilling,  Thank you for inviting me to participate in the last Executive Forum.
It was very informative.
And it helped me  to understand some of the corporate goals and issues more clearly.
As I mentioned in that meeting,  I think the Xcelerator can be a key tool for leveraging our "soft" assets, as well  as helping Enron develop new business models to lead it into the future.
I also think the Xcelerator can play a key role in creating a balance between technology and commercial realities.

Subject: Policy Committee Review - Analyst/Associate Program PRC Process

Stan felt it would be appropriate for the Policy Committee to review the attached changes to the Analyst / Associate PRC process, prior to execution.
In summary, the following modifications have been developed by the heads of the AAPRC Committees (Horton, Kean, and Sherriff) and A/A Program Management (Lemmons):  ?
Most cross-calibration will be at the business unit level, since this is where the best interaction and information gathering occurs.
Steps to ensure consistency across the business units are outlined in the memo.
The final PRC meeting will focus on business unit ranking distributions, and the names/attributes of the top performers across the company.
?
The PRC committees have been expanded to improve the quality of representation, and to reflect the diversity of our workforce.
The additions were selected from a pool of high performing VPs and Directors.
To ensure fairness, only VPs and Directors will provide representation on the AAPRC Committee.
?
An attachment has been included to clarify program tenure and promotion criteria.
Please let me know if you have any questions or would like to discuss by mid-day Wednesday, May 9.
We are planning to release this information to the memo distribution list that evening.

Subject: End of an Era

Hi Ken and Jeff,    This email is being sent to let you know that my consulting contract with Enron has finally come to an end.
It has been a great experience to me to have been involved in the development of such successful international projects as, Puerto Quetzal in Guatemala in 1993, Batangas and Subic Bay in 1992/93 in the Philippines and Guam in 1996, all of which are still contributing to Enron's earnings.
The opportunities provided me during the first 26 years with Northern Natural Gas/Internorth, from which I retired in 1988, and the last 11 years as a consultant for Enron Development and Enron International have made me a better person and I thank you both for this.
I will continue to  be involved in consulting and development of both power and natural gas projects, although on a more limited basis, and only as an independent.
Should there be any need for my services or need to be contacted for any reason, I can be reached at:
Subject: Extension of Series C Offering and Waiver of Right to Participate

June 29, 2001  Dear Questia Stockholder:  As a follow-up to our Series C stock offering, I would like to inform you that the participation in our Series C offering has been slower than anticipated.
We had originally intended to raise $15MM to $20MM dollars.
To date we have raised approximately $11MM although we are expecting to hear from several Taiwanese investors about a substantial investment that will be incremental to the $11MM that has been raised to date.
Additionally, we have recently retained Credit Suisse First Boston to assist us with a $25MM private placement with a strategic partner.
We are optimistic that this round will close in mid to late September 2001.
You may recall that the Series C documents provided for us to close the Series C round on May 31, 2001.
Questia would like to extend that period to permit additional Series C investors to participate in the Series C round on the same terms and conditions as the Series C investors who participated prior to May 31, 2001.
Subject: [smu-betas] Grumbola

Boys,     At the risk of him saying "It's no big deal fellas", I need to notify you that Brother John Grumbles, will be undergoing exploratory heart surgery via the ole catheter up the leg procedure sometime very soon.
The Drs.
are telling him he's most likely got a partially clogged artery at the bottom of his heart and if he does, they will proceed with the angioplasty procedure at the same time.
Dr. Fullerton has already contacted him as have several of us local guys and I think IT IS A BIG DEAL and I know he would appreciate a call.
The surgery was actually scheduled for a couple of days ago but was cancelled at the last minute because of a doctor screw up.
His phone number is 972 617-2412.

Subject: "The Generosity of Californians", authored by Glenn Schleede,  retired VP of NEES and industry gadfly

Glenn Schleede, a friend from the early nineties NPC study, provided the attached commentary on the "Generosity of Californians".

If anyone is interested, I have the detailed backup.
Subject: McKinsey alum

Mr. Jeff Skilling CEO, President, and COO Enron Houston, TX.
June 25, 2001.
Dear Jeff,   I worked at McKinsey (NY/FI) during 1985-91 and have  since founded and run an IT systems integration company called Techna in Silicon  Valley, with clients worldwide and Purnendu ("PC") Chatterjee (ex McK and  affiliated with Soros' funds) as an equity partner.
We have been working closely with Sempra Energy trading  for the past couple of years and are beginning an engagement with NYMEX soon.
Our president, Ben Bernstein (ex Microsoft) has been managing these clients on  the east coast personally.
Ben and I feel that we have interesting ideas in IT  for Enron from our experience in this industry thus far, and would appreciate  your indulgence in getting us in touch with the appropriate IT leaders at Enron  for us to make a pitch.
Your achievements at Enron since leaving McKinsey  have deservedly won you quite a fan following!
As an unabashed member of  this group, I would love to hear from you anyway, when you find a moment in your  busy day.
Best regards.
Subject: Commonwealth Club SF

Dear Jeffrey,  I meant what I said about you showing a great deal of character to talk to what was in the best of conditions  an " unfriendly " crowd.
You could have stayed in Texas, or not made public a public appearance.
Either way you didn't have to make the effort.
I am sure you have given your presentation a great deal of thought.
If could I  offer a suggestion.
You correctly identified the ugly side of human nature which needs someone to blame.
No one has a problem blaming the regulators but there is still this outstanding question who is profiting.
If sales of power have gone from 7bln in 99, 27bln in 2000 and 50bln in 01. Who is profiting?
The cost of generation has not risen this much, so someone is making a large profit.
You alluded to municipal power generators but the more specific you can be, break it down etc, the more believable it will be that Enron is not an evil energy company pocketing Californians money.
Secondly, Enron has a great opportunity to be visible in promoting alternative sources, and or mass transportation improvements.
To set an agenda for the country that is responsible and progressive.
Sincerely
Subject: PIE THROWING EPISODE, BE SAFE!

Dear Jeff,      Heard about the pie episode today in California.
From all the press accounts I've read, it sounds like you handled what had to be a difficult situation admirably and, in the immediate wake such adolesence, still managed to clearly and articulately make your case about what's been going on out there.
Congratulations---hats off to you, Jeff.
I am glad you

Subject: Commonwealth Club Talk

Dear Jeff,   I just wanted to let you know that I thought your talk last night was inspirational.
I have been working in the San Francisco office for 2 years helping to permit sites for generating facilities.
During this time our team have had to endure more than our fair share of irrational and misinformed individuals.
One thing they didn't teach me at business school was how to educate people in a hostile and political environment while maintaining your dignity and humility.
Your example last night has certainly set a new personal standard for me to strive for.
Sincerely
Subject: Organising a meeting with you

Dear Jeff,  As you may remember, we last met at the Directors' conference in Barcelona, last October.
On that occasion, I asked you whether you would be agreeable to the idea of meeting some of the top executives of a client that I am serving in France, EDF and even giving them a speech at their marketing conference.
Given the short notice, this turned out to be impossible at that point in time since, at that time, you were "booked" for the following three months, if I remember well!
You also told me that, provided you received some "advanced notice", it would not be too difficult to organise the encounter at a different date that the one I had then mentioned.
I am thus sending you this message to find out what is the earliest date we could meet with you, preferably in Texas, since our client executives would like to take advantage of the encounter to meet not only you, but also some members of your management team.
Once I have a reply from you, I shall inform our client of the dates you suggest and get back to you to finalise detail of when we could travel to Texas and who we would like to meet, ideally .
I hope all is well with you and I look forward to reading your response to this message.
Many thanks in advance, and best of all.

Words can never express my heartfelt gratitude for the funds you made available to those of us who suffered losses because of the flood.

The devastation of so many was heart wrenching.
Your generosity is so awesome, and I appreciate all that you are doing to help others as well as myself.
God bless you and thank you.

Subject: COX GLP 2002

Dear Jeff,  As I am back to the drawing board and start planning for the  Global Leadership Program 2002, I would like to ask for your continuous support.
The visits this year to the  offices in London and Tokyo have received most favorable feedback and ENRON  was mentioned several times during our GLP symposium by both groups.
Your innovative ideas and global views has enriched their  MBA experience.
Quoting directly from one of the students this year:  " ... a wonderful, life-altering program.
The trip was truly an amazing experience, one that was both personally and academically rewarding.
Hopefully, the GLP will remain an essential part of the Cox experience for many years to come."
I would really apprecite the opportunity for the incoming class to visit ENRON  in London and Tokyo during their GLP trip in May if possible.
Again, thanks for everything and I look forward to hearing from you.
Warm Regards,

Thanks.

Subject: Thank You!

Dear Mr. Lay & Mr. Skilling,  I cannot begin to express my gratitude to you and Enron for the $1000.00 I received.
My husband and I were devastated when our home flooded.
I was so proud to be an Enron employee when I heard that we had donated $500,000 to the flood relief fund.
But when I learned that we would be eligible for $1000 as flood victims, I could only burst into tears and thank God for working for such a humanitarian company.
I was a participant in the Fortune 500 survey last year and rated Enron as THE best place to work for!
I truly believed it then and even more so now.
Thank you again for going above and beyond this employees' expectations.
We are truly grateful.
Subject: Human Resource Referral

Jeff:  Congratulations on the work you have been doing at Enron.

Sorry I missed you in NY a couple of weeks ago.
I'd love to catch up with you.
Looks and sounds like you are still doing terrific things, and I use you and Enron a great deal in conveying my message to investors and managers.
Al Rappaport and I have completed our book, Expectations Investing, which will be published by Harvard Business School Press in September.
(See attached preface).
I'm really excited about the product, and I think you'll find it interesting as well.
Al and I have asked the publisher to send you a more recent version for your review.
You'll probably get it in the next week or so.
Specifically, we'd be honored if you would endorse our book.
The endorsers we are targeting are a blue chip group, and we feel your perspective would add a great deal.
Thanks in advance, and feel free to give me a shout if you have any questions.

Hi Jeff.
I am Mike's brother, Ronnie, living in San Diego and a member of the San Diego Chapter of YPO.
With all the propaganda being spread about the electricity and energy crisis we are experiencing here in California, I thought it would be worthwhile to invite you to town to give us an insider's view on what is really going on (aka, the "truth").
Is there anyway you can find time in your busy schedule to visit us over dinner with a short talk and a question and answer period.
The sooner the better.
I will schedule a "special" meeting of our chapter to accommodate any dates that work for you.
I look forward to hearing from you.

We are building a call center in San Antonio, and the City of San Antonio (municipal electric) wants to charge us a $50,000 deposit for new power because 11 out of the last 12 payments made by Enron have been late, and late fees have been paid.

Any ideas?"
