Subject: Fastow Rumor

Greg:  A rumor is going around that Andy Fastow's employment contract had language that would allow him to be paid $9,000,000 or some amount if a change of control of the corporation occurred.
Several questions come to mind related to this issue that I would appreciate your response: 	1)  Please confirm the existence of such a clause or similar clause in Mr. Fastow's contract that would allow him a claim of additional money from an Enron entity.
2)  If such a clause does exist what is Enron's intent as far as payment or litigation?
3)  What other Enron employee's have such clauses that would allow them to benefit from the merger?
Your clarification of the above questions would be appreciated!
Thanks, Jim

Subject: Dynegy P Plus

We sleeeved some of the P Plus with DYN today.
That's the good news.
The bad news, they charged us 10 cents /bbl versus 3-4 cents that we got from others.
To add insult they wanted 20-25 cents for size.
Understand 2 seperate entities but they should not take advantage of any info they have to take advantage of us.
Don said the trader was told to quote the higher numbers, it was not his decision.
Subject: 2002 Budget pool

The total bonus pool needed for EGS is $54,800,000.
The amount charged and paid by joint ventures is $5,091062.
The Enron portion would thus be $49,708,938.
This is a reduction of  $14,846,779 for 2001 bonuses charged to Enron.
Subject: Landstar

Greg:  Last summer you had a book on Landstar on your desk.

Subject: metals business

Dear Greg  We met some time ago for dinner in London together with Bruce Farmer.
Since a lot of things at Enron are fluid at the moment I wanted to contact you to express Glencore's interest to acquire Enron's copper concentrates and metal book if this is an option Enron would consider.
We understand that the staff in London responsible for these areas are working on a MBO and there is thus little interest from their side to be open or co-operative.
This is the reason why I contact you directly and would appreciate hearing from you at your earliest convenience.

Subject: Cash Offers For Enron Wind Europe

Mark:  In the last two days, three private equity firms have told me they would be prepared to make all-cash offers for EW's European operations before December 31.
These are Babcock & Brown (London), Alchemy (Frankfurt) and FBR (Washington DC).
Based on what I know about Enron Wind, I would bet that the price for the European operations alone would be signicantly more attractive for Enron than the price for the combined US and European operations.
I don't want to waste their time if it's too late.
What should I tell them?

Subject: Enron Japan is at the entrance of "Bermuda Triangle"!!!

Dear Enron's topmanagement, We are not only concerned on the crashed stock but also Enron's situation in Japan.
The business here is too difficult!!!
How do you know the current situation here:    > Bad Reputation in Japan - if you say you are from Enron people will say  "No"   > Ignorance of Japanese Business - wasting many time on TOCOM, a market     controlled by mafia, those minor comnies want to cheat Enron's money   > Unsatisfactory business environment - deregulation will not proceed in  three     years   > Poor manegment - the office is like a kindergarden, the so called  "experts"     have serious discrimmination with local staff; They do nothing  themselves just     ask the local "slave" to work hard and they go to vacation or business  trip   > "Sato" means sweet in Japanese but Sato Project is not so sweet as you  think!
Have you expected another "E-power"?
I have to say we are so dispointed with Enron!!!!
Enron Japan is at the  entrance of "Bermuda Triangle", we worry when will it dispear?

Subject: US Responds to Terror #5

Afghanistan Ground War  We believe plans are progressing for ground action in Afghanistan to begin over the next week.
Rumsfeld and Bush are both overseas and it is unlikely that the attack would commence prior to their return.
Forces earmarked for deployment include US Marines, US Rangers and British Marines.
The Pentagon has reportedly suggested to London that it reclassify its marine commandos and paratroopers as "special forces" so the operation may still be depicted as an SF one.
The tactical aims of such operations - which will see troops inserted by helicopter from Pakistan and then extracted via the same route - will be to destroy identified Al Qaeda targets in areas theoretically under Taleban control.
Anthrax  More incidents today with media outlets and politicians being the primary targets.
There is a wide variety of media reporting on this, most of it unreliable.
We reiterate that the U.S. government is equipped to handle isolated incidents of cutaneous anthrax exposures, but is not equipped to handle air-dispersed anthrax attacks on a wider scale, or more contagious biological weapons such as smallpox.
The main impact of the current incidents (aside from those directly affected) is psychological; a further escalation of the sense of worry, which increases both political and economic pressure on the Bush Administration.
Politically, there will be increased pressure "to do something" not only against the bin Laden network, but possibly Iraq.
Economically, the anthrax incidents are simply another serious blow to consumer confidence.
The Congressional incidents also are delaying passage of the fiscal stimulus package.
Terrorist Sophistication Targeting Critical Infrastructure Not to be Overlooked  The anthrax incidents also represent yet another attack against US critical infrastructure.
Just as the World Trade Center and Pentagon attacks represented attacks on our transportation infrastructure, financial infrastructure, and government infrastructure, so too do the anthrax attacks target our government infrastructure (Congress, Gov.
Pataki) and our communications infrastructure (Fox/CBS/ABC/NBC & mail delivery).
Both the September l1th attacks and the anthrax incidents have hit targets that are significant both as critical infrastructure and as symbols of American power.
The threat at Three Mile Island reported last night suggests that the possibility of attacks against energy infrastructure should certainly not be ignored and should probably be expected.
Subject: Belated congratulations...

Just wanted to drop you a note and congratulate you on your recent  appointment (or should I say "anointment").
Also wanted to (on the QT) have a discussion about our two company's and  float an idea.
I've been at Harvard for the past two months at the AMP  program and have had a chance to really look at the direction, gait and  opportunities for Cinergy and during that same time frame Enron has also  gone through some dramatic change.
As is said "a little bit of knowledge is  a dangerous thing".
It would be a good to see you at the very least and  grab a good bourbon and cigar.
I'll be out of the program in the middle of November and back in  Cincinnati.
Send me your number and I'll give you a call sometime and we  can see if there is a reason to do anything but have the bourbon and cigar.
Congratulations again on the obvious wisdom of the Enron empire.
I'm sure  they're braced for ignition.....
Regards,
Subject: Anthrax Scare in DC

House Speaker Hastert has decided to close the entire Capitol complex, including the office buildings on the House side, at the end of the working day today through Monday, as a precautionary move to allow for special agents and germ experts to conduct a sweep of the ventilation systems and all remaining unopened mail.
The Senate side is expected to do the same.
It has also been confirmed that the anthrax-laden letter sent to Senate majority leader Daschle's office was of a particularly potent, high grade military quality anthrax that quickly spread once opened.
Some 29 staff in Dachle's office or the mail room have tested positive, and some anthrax spores were found in the ventilation system of the Hart building (where Daschle's office is located) and in one of the tunnels leading to the Capitol itself.
If there is even a hint that this military grade anthrax came from Iraq, there  will be a strike by the U.S. against Iraq.
Another possibility is that the anthrax is of Russian origin and was somehow illicitly acquired by Al Qaeda or  the Taliban.
There has not been a second anthrax letter or a new outbreak of anthrax, nor is there any evidence of anthrax spores spreading to committee rooms located in the other Senate or House buildings.
This was a pre-cautionary move by House Speaker hastert, though it in no way diminishes how ugly the situation is.
Subject: Wireless Spectrum - Creating a New Commodity Market

Greg:  In August I submitted an idea to Enron's ThinkBank  "Idea Vault"  for a new business opportunity for Enron.
My idea is to develop a new commodity market for exchanging wireless spectrum rights.
The idea is categorized under "Commodities" and is accompanied by a report which explains in more detail the idea, background information, market conditions and why it's a tremendous opportunity for Enron.
It's been 2 months since I submitted the idea, but I haven't yet received a response from anyone who may have evaluated it.
I'm contacting you now for two reasons.
First, it is my understanding that the Net Works group develops and launches ideas like this.
And second, it's my effort to "jump start" the review process, for fears that the idea may have fallen between the cracks somewhere in the "Idea Vault" process.
Included below is the preface to my report which introduces the idea for trading wireless spectrum.
The entire report can be accessed and printed from the Idea Vault site, or I could send the report document electronically if that's easier.
If it's not appropriate for me to have sent you this email directly, then I sincerely apologize for the mistake.
If you're typically not the person who would review an idea like this, again please accept my apology, and recommend who you think that person might be.
Thanks for your consideration,
