Subject: Enron meeting

Gavyn Davies, via Helen Turley, has asked me to give you some guidance as to what you might include in your presentations at the meeting on October 31st.
I do so with trepidation, since I am sure that you know more about your subject than I do, so please regard the following merely as suggestions to be ignored if you deem it appropriate to do so.
We have blocked out two hours (9-11AM) to discuss market opportunities for Enron in Spain and Germany.
My understanding is that Oscar will go first, as he has a plane to catch.
I would suggest that each of you plan on speaking for about 30 (no more than 40) minutes, so as to leave time for questions from what will be a lively audience of Enron executives.
You might want to begin with a general description of the political situation, followed by a description of the present and future state of the economy in each country.
Then, you might turn to a more specific discussion of matters of interest to Enron: the state of regulation and deregulation of energy markets, the areas you consider should be of interest to Enron as business opportunities, etc.
I do hope this is of help
Subject: calif power letter

Ken,  I've sent your letter to the Governor and top legislators.
I'm also working with David Freeman in the governor's office as well to try to keep sce out of bankruptcy.
It's unfortunate that government doesn't work more like business.
There seems to be no sense of urgency in finding the facts to make an intelligent decision, just people who don't want to make any decision even to do that.
On a side note, Propel develops software that makes it much easier to develop 24x7 mission critical systems including very advanced data management.
Is there someone who you'd recommend I can talk with on the energy trading side of enron to explore the potential of our helping you make your systems more reliable/scalable/easier to maintain?
Thanks!

Subject: Interview

In order to prepare a paper for my graduate class on Leadership, I recently had an opportunity to visit with Stan Horton.
Stan provided some wonderful insight on his leadership skills and gave you as an example of a superb leader.
He suggested that I also speak with about your views on leadership.
Some questions that would be of interest would be what events you think coelesced to bring you to the chairmanship of Enron; what developmental process you knowingly (or unknowingly) went through in your early years and what challenges have you encountered that made a signficant change in your career.
If you would have fifteen minutes or so and would be amenable, I would much appreciate visiting with you in the next two-three weeks.
If you wish, I could provide you questions in advance to maximize your time.
Thank you for considering this request.
Subject: AEI Board--Sidney Taurel

Subject: Enron Metals Ltd (Enron Europe Office)

Dear Mr Lay,  I write to you as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of The Enron Corporation because I would like you to know that I am on my second period of sick leave in a year due to work related stress.
A year ago I was apologised to by the Human Resources Department and told that they would not allow it to happen again.
Through constant pressure and the unfair way in which I have been treated, the advice of my doctor and counsellor, as they are concerned with my health, was to accept the voluntary redundancy which had been offered to my colleagues and myself recently.
Though due to my exceptional circumstances I wrote the attached letter.
Today I received the attached response and I feel totally devastated that Enron Europe will not compensate me fairly for how they have affected my life and that of my family's.
I read in Enron's literature that you care about your employees and their families, and feel that your code of ethics should have offered me protection against the circumstances that I find myself in, but to my complete and utter dismay I find this is not the case and  in my experience I have suffered a great deal and this seems to have been totally ignored in the response letter.
I haven't once been contacted by Enron Europe to see how I'm coping and give me any support whatsoever.
They are showing no care or concern for me or my family.
I write to you for help in this matter and to conclude this stressful situation that I find myself in due to your company.
Under the circumstances and increased stress that the response letter has put upon me, I would be most grateful if you would respond to me as soon as possible.
Yours sincerely
Subject: MESSAGE FROM AMBASSADOR WISNER

October 18, 2001  Dear Ken,  Ratan Tata, who attended Hank Greenberg's October 18 International Advisory Board meeting, and I talked on the margins about the Enron dispute.
Ratan confirmed that Tata is interested in helping with a solution, provided that Indian government and the banks step in, deal with the equity and hold the investment while Tata works out acquisition details.
Tata also confirmed that he has been approached by the Prime Minister's office and Tarun Das but the sticking points will include equity price, costs, etc.
Ratan knows his negotiation is not with Enron.
He agreed with me that you and he have shared interests in a settlement and that if you wish an informal conversation with him to ensure he and Enron are on the same page, he is open to a phone call or a meeting at a place and time convenient.
In the event that such a conversation would not cross your wires, it seemed to me that if Tata and Enron are driving for a settlement from different directions, your interests would be served.
I am sensitive to the fact that I am "out of the loop" and hope that my suggestion that you and Ratan talk does not complicate matters.
Should you wish to speak with Ratan, his number in Bombay is 011 91 22 204 9131 or 3725.
He leaves New York for Boston today and from there, he returns to India.

Subject: University of Houston Law Center

Dear Mr. Lay,  I first wanted to thank you for taking the time to read this e-mail.
I know that you are extremely busy and receive numerous requests on a daily basis.
I have been an employee with Enron for almost two years.
I have spent most of my time on the Liquids trading floor as a Risk Manager for the financial crude book.
I was recently recruited by Fred Lagrasta to work in his midmarketing group.
I am responsible for supporting our originators in New York.
My years at Enron have taught me not only the business aspects of the energy industry, but to strive to pursue your dreams and accept nothing but the best from yourself.
It has been a dream of mine to attend law school since I was little.
II feel like I am at the time in my life that I can sucessfully pursue this dream.
I am interested in studying corporate law at the University of Houston Law Center and participating in their part-time program while maintaining my employment with Enron.
I recently spoke with Don Schroeder, a physical crude trader here at Enron, who suggested sending you an e-mail asking if you would be so kind as to write a letter of recommendation on my behalf.
I would be honored if you would write the university a letter recommending me to their part-time program.
I am hoping to make the early decision deadline of November 1st.
I understand that you do not know me at all, however I would be more than willing to come visit with you if you had time and/or forward you my resume and performance evaluations.
I know that I would represent Enron well by attending the University of Houston.
I worked full-time throughout my college career at Texas A&M University to help finance my education.
I am a hard worker and take pride in everything that I do.
I know that I will be successful in law school as well as excel with my career at Enron.
Again, I greatly appreciate you taking the time to read this request and your consideration.
I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Sincerely,

Subject: Not an employee

You might want to double check your records and databases.
Thanks
Subject: 11 September

Dear Ken,  As an Enron employee in the UK I would like to say thank you for taking the trouble of writing personally to your employees.
The events of 11 September have shocked the world and forced our governments to take very difficult and far reaching decisions.
As somebody from the UK I would like to say how we support President Bush and admire his handling of the very difficult decisions which have had to be made.
We are pleased that Prime Minister Blair has totally backed these decisions and offered support.
On a personal note we have friends in Boston and our concern for them highlighted the close bond between our two countries.
The American citizens stranded in Britain at that time felt supported in their loss, grief and bewilderment.
Our Queen took the initiative of the Horse Guards playing 'The Star Spangled Banner' and a melody of American tunes which was very emotional.
The Archbishop of Canterbury said some inspired words regarding the Statue of Liberty and all that it stands for.
Your position at Enron is at the top, mine is miniscule but we both want to say God Bless America.
Regards

Subject: Update - May 25, 2001

On Thursday, May 25 you were repaid $2,535,786.72  from the refinance of Da= vid's home ($1mm) and my home ($1,535,786).
We forwarded the funds to pay= down your personal Bank of Amercia (BA) LOC.
The Family Partnership had t= o borrow from your personal line at BA $200,000 to  cover the $588k cash ca= ll for SRE properties.
With today's closing prices,  the Family Partnershi= p's available BA line is between $25k-$50, which is an  estimate because mu= tual funds don't post their NAVs until around 5pm (Central  time).
That ma= kes the Partnership's  total payable to KLL/LPL  personal line at $1,303,50= 0.

Per our conver= sation, I told them that the timing was bad,  but we did not want to miss o= ut before they close the fund.
I indicated  that our initial investment wo= uld be the following: KLL/LPL personal $250,000;  KLL & LPL Investments, Lt= d. $100,000; Foundation ?
(possibly  $100,000).
The initial investment amo= unt for the partnership, and  possibly the foundation, are about as low as = we can go if we want to  get into the fund.
I am aware that the Foundation=  is waiting to as  long as possible to pay out any contributions os I wasn'= t sure if we wanted to  make something happen there.

Subject: Calif.'s Energy Future

Dear Ken,  I hope you 'visit' with the Governor was as fruitful as mine.
we are very favorably supported in our development of a Regional Energy Efficiency Initiative ... an approach to defining and delivering sustainable energy efficiency.
(not conservation!)
There is an opportunity to discuss a way in which Enron could perhaps become involved in a very significant set of new developments within the sphere of influence in which I operate.
If you wish to 'look into' this .. let me know.
I believe such an endeavor during this difficult time might well stand you in good stead .. and its a way to enter the end use services business.
I look forward to getting to Aspen  for the AI conference.

Ken - As you know, we had several issues that needed to get tied down before the BoD reconvenes to review Project Southwood.
Both Jeff McMahon (deal timing) and Rick Causey (goodwill) are ready.

As soon as I hear from Andy, I will begin polling and will set the date, hopefully, for early next week.
At this time, I am not aware of any additional items that need to be addressed by the Board in the upcoming meeting.
We need to confirm the 2002 BoD calendar but can do that in the regularly scheduled meeting in Dec.

Since they are asking for Enron to be a strategic investor, I will run it by Kevin Garland's Investment group.
I will also run it by Dan Reck's Freight group, which sits within EGM.
We will get back with Rob.
Also, we had an Enron Net Works all employee meeting recently at the Hyatt (October 5th).
Over 1000 employees attended.
The goal was to communicate to my employees what is Enron Net Works and our vision going forward.
I believe it went very well.
Mary Clark, Internal Communications attended as well.
If you would like, we have a 13 minute video that you may want to see.
It is 3 minutes of funny stuff that we ran up front while people were coming in and 10 minutes of what ENW is with the message being we are a service company.
Let me know if you would like a copy or if you want to arrange 15 minutes of your time for me to show it to you.
