This is the content of an email: Mr. Lay, Recent developments with EBS are causing me significant concern. I became employed by Enron (EBS) as part of the acquisition of DataSystems Group, Inc. in 1999. Part of that employment agreement included a retention bonus, payable in three installments in March of 2000, 2001, and 2002. We were told that bonus was payable if we did not voluntarily terminate (quit) prior to those dates. With the highly uncertain future of EBS, I am faced with two likely scenarios: Scenario 1 - EBS terminates as part of a severance prior to February of 2002. I receive no bonus for 2001 after working countless hours of overtime to "save EBS". I receive no retention payment because I was severed prior to March 31. Scenario 2 - Enron divests EBS to a third party. Third party terminates employment with little or no severance. I receive no bonus for 2001 after working countless hours of overtime to "save EBS". I receive no retention payment because I was severed prior to March 31. As my wife and I both work for EBS, this is an even greater concern to me. At the recent all-employee meeting, you asked everyone to redouble their work, work harder and more than before to help pull Enron out of this current crisis. I find it difficult (as do those working for me) to commit to this effort while we're facing what appears to be almost certain personal disaster. We have been working tirelessly on the Microsoft deal since the beginning of the year. It now is beginning to look like we'll see no acknowledgement from Enron for the work. I would like to know what you and Enron can do to assuage the concerns my reports and I have over these issues. Thank you,

This is the content of an email: The convention dates are now January 26-29, 2002. I'm sending you a new confirmation from the NADA for these dates. They are using some of the NFL money to refund 100% of the registration fees for the dealers and managers and 50% of the fees for the guests. Of course I registered everyone before September 11; otherwise I would have registered everyone as managers! I' m sure that's what everyone will do that registers now. Who said "the early bird gets the worm?" Dad

This is the content of an email: Molly, This is an update on Anshuman. Please, see below. It seems that his transfer is not an issue for the time being. We can put it on a back-burner till he gets here. Vince P.S. The relevant section. I also spoke about Anshuman, and there was resistance to his leaing for such a long time.
