Below is a link to the Proposed Decision by Com. Bilas on the Gas Industry Restructuring proceeding that has been lingering on the agenda for most of the year. This was just issued late last week and published today. I'm still in the process of reviewing it but the good news is that he is proposing the adoption of the Comprehensive Settlement which Transwestern helped design and supported along with most other participants. The decision does however make some modifications which may not be in our best interest i.e. the adoption of a price cap for secondary market transactions. Due to the lapse in time on this proceeding, Com. Bilas has granted participants the right to file comments by Friday, October 19, 2001. Please review and advise if you agree we should file comments (I also have a call into Mark Baldwin). Note this is 140+ pages--you may wish to review the summary and pertinent sections.

QUESTION: As both of you are well aware, ENA currently owes Midland Power Cooperative ("MPC") past due amounts for power delivered pursuant to an Agreement for Purchase of Power dated March 31, 1995 by and between ENA and MPC, as amended. I am working with Chip and Dave to determine if we can pay the past due amounts. Two questions need to be answered ASAP: 1) Is there any other entity that might be able to supply the power if ENA defaults under its agreement with MPC? 2) Is MPC considered a "utility"? Dave has learned that "utilities" cannot refuse to serve entities in bankruptcy on a going forward basis for failure to pay pre-petition obligations (so long as adequate assurances of future payments are provided). Gerald, you might need to consult with one of the bankruptcy lawyers to see how this determination is made. Please respond at your earliest possible convenience. Thanks

Attached please find the referenced lists. I am not sending the list for 4/5/00 because all of the counterparties on that list were Credit declines. I have responded for Australia Legal on the 4/7/00 list. Remember, no credit derivatives approved unless specifically indicated (which none are).

The Mark Morris group performance is the last weekend of this month, the 27th - 29th. See the website www.spahouston.org and click on "Program Notes" for a detailed description. Bill and I will leave for Austin tomorrow a.m. as early as we can manage. I'm not picky about where we go for dinner, but was thinking Bill might enjoy going to the Bitter End brew pub -- I'm sure they don't take reservations but

Q: Shari: I see that you added this to the legal/credit list. Can you tell me why? What type of deal do we do? Did ECTI ever transact with DLJ Capital Funding, Inc. (for distressed loans)? Are you familiar with the Loan Syndications and Trading Association, Inc. "standard terms and conditions"? Did you ever document a loan derivative? Thanks. Sara
