I shall send a message to Bryan saying that the Research has to look under  the hood and examine the mechanics of the model in order to sign off on it.
A dog and pony show is not  sufficient.
In any case, the decision to approve the model should not be left to Ben and Kirstee.

Subject: Site License for Power World

Gentlemen,  I recommend that we purchase this package and split the cost 3 ways between 3  power trading desks.
I think that we should go for option 3 (~ $15,000).

Subject: Dale Nesbitt

John,  I talked to Dale Nesbitt.
He suggested that the best way to evaluate his  model is to go through a one week intensive project with assistance of somebody from his  company.
Our cost  is a flat fee of $12,500 that would be deducted from the purchase  price of $55,000, in case we buy the software package.
The price of 55K is indicative and will be adjusted based on the required  level of support.
Dale will be in Houston next week.
I have tentatively invited him to visit  with us on Tuesday, November 7, at 3:00 p.m.
He will adjust if you are busy at this time.
Please, let me know what you think.

Keith,  The article I mentioned.
Vince  ***********************************************   rashed By Tax Selling                    But are there bargains among the discards?
By Michael Santoli                     Here it is more than six months since even the most  intransigent last-minute                   filers wrote checks to the IRS to render to the government  its due for their                   financial good fortune in 1999.
By rights, this should be a  season relatively                   free of concerns about taxes, notwithstanding the  presidential candidates'                   parrying over whose tax-cut math features more fuzz.
And yet, for anyone with a dollar in the stock market  (which in recent weeks                   has likely been reduced to loose change), the looming  demands of this year's                   levies on capital gains have helped to make this month yet  another taxing                   October for investors.
The jump-and-stumble course  the                                                  major stock indexes have  taken this                                                  year is being blamed for a                                                  particularly intense effort  among                                                  mutual-fund managers and  other big                                                  investors to sell their  losers.
The                                                  steep ramp-up in stocks that                                                  persisted from the fall of  1999                                                  through the first quarter of  this year

The students and faculty members from the business school will be also  invited.
Berkeley in general, and Department of Industrial Engineering and Operations  Research in particular, are important centers of academic research on electricity markets (S. Oren works very closely with Severin Borenstein).
My presentation will focus on the Analyst/Associate program.
I shall  also  have an opportunity to discuss the power markets in California (I expect many questions) before many experts who are very  important to shaping public opinion and regulatory agenda.
Please, let me know who in you group could help me in preparing this  presentation and in presenting  Enron's point of view in a more effective way.

Subject: Wharton Partnership

Jeff,  I am sending you a recommendation regarding our cooperation with the Wharton School, following my visit with Tom Piazze in May.
Tom is a Corporate  Relations Officer at Wharton.
Recommendation.
I am writing to you to recommend joining The Wharton Partnership.
The Partnership is an umbrella program established to coordinate Wharton School initiatives for industry-academic cooperation.
Currently, the partnership supports alliances with approximately  200 companies  worldwide.
The recommended annual contribution by Enron is between $100K-150K, that puts us in the top bracket of contributing companies, such as GE,  Citigroup, Goldman, Sachs & Co., Intel, and many others.
The contribution is executed  through grants to different research projects that would directly benefit Enron.
The  choice of the projects is at our discretion and can be changed over time depending on the business needs.
Benefits to Enron.
Enron can benefit from the Partnership by:   - gaining advance access to current academic research    - significantly increasing our presence  and visibility on the campus,    enhancing   our recruiting efforts  - taking our message directly to influential academics who have significant                    influence on public opinion         - gaining access to high quality executive education programs  Specific Programs.
The Partnership functions through involvement in different research projects.
I have identified a few projects that will maximize the benefit to Enron.
1.
WeBI (Wharton e-Business Initiative).
This programs provides an umbrella     for different initiatives in the area of curriculum development, research  and      corporate engagement related to e-commerce.
Main benefits: access to e-commerce research and     enhanced recruitment opportunities.
2.
Emerging Technologies Management Research Program.
Interdisciplinary     program addressing issues facing companies in new markets: managing  intellectual     property, participating in emerging technologies, selecting the optimal     organizational structures.
Benefits to Enron: access to financial technology in the area of  valuation of     intangible assets and new forms of business organizations.
3.
Risk Management and Decision Process Center.
Development of techniques for     assessment and management of non-traditional risks (risks outside the  scope     of traditional insurance contracts and capital markets instruments).
Benefits to Enron: access to new risk management tools, dissemination     of information about our capabilities in this area.
Potential users of the program at Enron.
My group could coordinate the cooperation with the Risk Management and  Decision Process Center.
Greg Whalley is a potential customer for WeBI.
Several different units of  Enron can be involved  with  Emerging Technologies Management Research Program.

Shirley,  Please, send it to the entire group.
Vince  ****************************************************************************** ****************  This is another reminder about the responsibility we have as a group for cleaning the conference rooms after  meetings.
For many  visitors to Enron a conference room maybe the first and the last exposure to the company.

Kevin,  Vasant and I talked to Clayton about his request for transfer.

Vasant will formulate  exact definition of the deliverables and we will hold  Clayton  to it.
If he fails to deliver the request for  transfer will be rejected.
Anything else would be highly demoralizing to everybody.
Clayton has so far produced exactly zero (no single output was delivered)  though he was advertising the projects inside and outside the group as completed.
I want you to be  aware of it, because I have serious doubts regarding Clayton's integrity.
Vince
Subject: London Research Group

John,  I am writing to you regarding the management of the London Research group.
As you know, Dale Surbey, who was managing the London unit of the Research  Group, is moving to EBS.
Dale did a terrific job helping me to develop the pool of  talent we have currently in London.
Given that Dale is likely to be transfered to Houston,  it's time to nominate one member of the Research Group for a management position.
My recommendation is Steve Leppard.
Steve emerged not only as the most technically qualified member of the group  but also as a natural leader,  highly respected by his peers and internal customers.
Steve has a very high energy  level and is very efficient as a manager and as  coach of new talent.
His promotion is likely to cause Anjam's departure form Enron.
I value  technical skills of Anjam, but in spite of my loyalty to him, don't think he is the  same caliber as Steve.
However, I would not like to lose him and think about moving him to  Houston for 2 years.
I think that the opportunity to work in Houston, would be a  sufficient incentive to keep him in Enron.
By the way, his performance feedback has  greatly improved.
Please, let me know what you think.
Vince
Subject: MG VaR

Ted,  We have the first running version of VaR model for the MG positions.
Many  thanks to Tanya and Anjam for taking lead in this effort.
We had also great help from Cantekin and Kirstee.
We want to  validate some  inputs before releasing the number.
Specifically, I want to make sure that both  London and Houston work with the same position numbers every day to avoid confusion.
A few comments.
1.
We plan to set up the models to run VaR concurrently in Houston  (Cantekin)  and London (Kirstee) with the same inputs.
The reason to do it this way is that we may have to respond quickly to  multiple inquiries in both locations.
(Cantekin and Kirstee, please stay in touch and synchronize the inputs ).
2.
It is critical that we run the model daily and receive the updated  positions and prices on a regular basis.
3.
We shall continue work in Houston to improve the model.
Two critical areas:   a. VaR model, by its nature, does not capture one big risk MG has in its  portfolios.
This is the liquidity risk        resulting from different cash consequences of the hedges and the  underlying positions.
b.
We should go through due diligence to validate the process generating  the position numbers (i.e.
look                       into the details of specific transactions).
From what  I know, MG has a fairly rudimentary risk        management system and I am not quite sure how they generate option  prices (and deltas).
They get some                       option prices by calling brokers.
4.
I think the current VaR is within 80-85% of the true number (assuming the  inputs are right).
But, as I have said,      VaR does not capture all the risks that we have to worry about.
