QUESTION: CES has a synthetic storage deal with Equitable Gas Company on Texas Eastern. CES gave Equitable 100,000 dth in April 1999 and Equitable is giving CES the gas back in January 2000 in Tetco M2. According to my new best buddy Fred at Equitable, CES will pay Equitable $.65 /dth after the January transaction is complete. Here are my questions/comments; 1. David - please look at the new deal I created for this exchange (deal 146788). The existing deal (deal 138741) is set up as a pipeline exchange. I believe the counterparty should be Equitable Gas Company which is the LDC. If it looks OK to you, I will kill the old deal and add the volumes to the new deal. Please let me know ASAP. 2. Linda/David - do we have CES's contract with Equitable? I would like to see a) what CES was paying Equitable for this deal and b) when the payment was due. 3. David/Stephanie - if the deal is structured the way Fred described it above, where do we put the $.65 fee at? 4. Linda - Fred has not received any assignment notices regarding CES deals. He doesn't know if he should bill CES or Enron North America. Who should he talk to about that?? Please forward this email to others that may need to see it. Thanks

Mr. Lay, I hope this note finds you in good health. I wish you and your family a happy and healthy New Year. I am currently working with a group of former Enron employees negotiating with several entities to join one of their organizations to trade various commodities (excluding power and gas). A couple of the entities have shown definitive interest in hiring the group, but our employment at Enron and employment contracts have created significant issues. In order for us to continue with the discussions and the possibility of employment, we have been asked to provide a letter from Enron representing that we have been released from the obligations of our various employment contracts, specifically the non-compete provision. I know you very interested in assisting former Enron employees in succeeding with their lives and careers. I would very much appreciate your personal help and support in this matter. I spoke with Rosalee yesterday (January 10th) and she suggested I email this note to you with the names of the other members of this group that may have issues with their employment contracts. The individuals other than myself are Bryan Burnett, Jeff Ader and Mark Bernstein. Timing as always is important, I will follow up with Rosalee Monday afternoon to determine a time that I can go the office to pick up the letters. I know you have tremendous demands on your time during this difficult period, I sincerely appreciate your attention and support. As before, if there is anything I can do for you or family, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you,

Dear Jason Wolfe, It has been a while since we spoke about your driving needs. Our inventory has changed since then and I realize your needs may have changed as well. We can still have the vehicle you originally were interested in within 24 hours and we also have some that are similar with similar equipment, only less expensive. Toyota has special financing rates available on Corollas, Tundras, 4Runners and 2001 Siennas. We have great deals on 2002 Camrys. If youd like to revisit our inventory, please click here www.smccalltoyota.com I look forward to hearing from you soon. Sincerely,

Q: Jon, how are things going these days? Are you going to stay in Houston? Did you get a job with UBS? How is the job search going for your girlfriend? So many questions... Things have been going okay up here, other than the fact that we have to look for summer jobs. Christmas holidays back home were definitely fun, but I missed talking to you. I went back to visit the office a couple of times, and Lambie and I managed to get out for an afternoon sporting clays shoot and a couple of beers. Since getting back here, I have had the opportunity to go skiing and play hockey a number of times. Classes are okay, but could be a lot better. We are currently taking marketing, strategy and corporate finance. The corp fin course is cool, and we learned a little bit about real options and valuing debt and equity using black-scholes modeling. That stuff if pretty interesting, and I think that I am going to try and get a summer job doing corp fin with a company. We have a big hockey tournament here this weekend which should prove to be fun, and the olympics also start. I can't wait to watch the Canadians kick a little Yankee ass at hockey. I have also planned a trip to Costa Rica for a couple of weeks in March, where I will hopefully spend a little time on the beach and meet a couple of sweet latin american girls. Anyway, hopefully all is well down there for you. I am interested in hearing how things are going for you. Take Care. Jeff

Here is an email: Jeff, I want to bring Aram Sogomonian back to Enron at a VP level. According to new human resources procedures this decision requires a support of three senior executives. I want to ask you to express your opinion on Aram (based on a phone interview or just on your past interactions with him). You can send a reply to Norma Villarreal at H/R. Thanks.
