I need a volunteer. The "Vol" will be responsible for pricing all of The New Power deals in the market area. 99% of this activity takes place on CGAS. Who wants it? Certain people have expressed an interest in learning more about pricing, Tricia Spence, Joe Casas, and Beverly Beaty. I estimate it will take about 15 minites a day during the month, and about 4-6 hours during bidweek. I also believe this deal will go away effective 4/1/2001. Pros Will learn the concept of a physical bookout - will become a Sitara pricing guru like myself. Will learn a great deal about transport pricing. May lead into executing capacity on CGLK and CGAS - I will not turn this over until I am satisfied with the Vol's performance on pricing. Can easily be done after the work day crunch (this may be a pro or a con) Will learn more about the pricing curves and how physical deals impact the desk P&L. Cons Somewhat tedious - not as bad as it used to be. May have to anwser Dick Jenkins questions. I will have to assign this to Scott or Vickie if I don't get a volunteer. I will do the training - possibly in the evening or on the weekend, AND I'm very detail oriented. I will provide feedback on this persons progress and I take this part of the job very serious.

Everyone, J.C. asked me to send the following message: Yesterday, the Houston federal court (U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas) entered an Order consolidating all cases "involving or related to the financial difficulties of Enron" before one Judge, Lee Rosenthal (who was the Judge to whom the earliest-filed case had been assigned and who conducted the hearing last Friday). The consolidation order grants a motion that we and other defense counsel had made. It means that all cases in the Houston federal court should proceed in a more orderly, coordinated fashion. A technical detail - the Order provides for three separate consolidated proceedings before Judge Rosenthal: (i) the federal securities cases; (ii) the derivative cases (at least those that have been filed in federal court); and (iii) the employee benefit plan cases. Finally, the Order allows parties ten days to file objections to consolidation. While someone may well file an objection, we cannot think of any meritorious grounds for an objection. As always, if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to call us. Terri Richardson Assistant to J.C.

Laura, Here is a draft transfer price agreement: I'm sure we may want to add some details, etc, but at least this gives us a beginning point. I'm hoping that you received the revised draft of the Manlove LOI on September 8 which incorporated your initial comments to the first draft. We can discuss what you see as the most efficient path forward, and any additions, etc, you think are necessary. I look forward to seeing you on Thursday, and breathing some cooler air for a change. My cell phone is 713 304 8716, should you need to reach me in the meanwhile. I will also be checking my voicemail, but will not be picking up email. Kay
Answer: Transfer price agreement
Here is an email: It currently appears that I will be on the road Wednesday and Thursday. Figures! I am going to send you a copy of the marked up interconnection agreement, which has comments from various Enron people. I thought it might help you think about which way to head. I would appreciate receiving an electronic file of the IC you prepared. Talk to you soon, Kay

QUESTION: Stamos, I don't think many buying opportunities out there. The economy is going to get crushed this year. There's only one place to put one's money now, and that is in cash. The manufacturing sector is in dire straits and you will continue to see an increase in plant shutdowns and company layoffs. The Fed could continue to lower rates but there'll be little capital investment if consumer spending dries up. I feel we've just seen the beginning. I think the Dow will be trading under 8000 by the end of April. Psychologically, the California crisis will add to consumer fear. The crisis is not a short term problem. As a result, barring any Federal bailout, you could kiss that state's economy goodbye. Let me ask you a question; if you were paying (1) the highest real estate prices in the country, and (2) the highest energy prices for the least reliable power, in (3) the midst of a hi-tech meltdown, what would keep you or your company from closing shop and moving to a different state?? If you own any CA real estate, sell. The only way to solve the CA energy crisis is to reduce demand or increase supply. Since CA doesn't want any power plants in its backyard, the supply issue likely won't be solved anytime soon. So, how do impact demand?? You have to price energy(power/gas) so high that the discretionary user (household, manufacturer, commercial store) conserves by closing its plant, cutting back on the thermastat or running the commercial operation during off-peak hours. California will see this reduction in demand over time. If the blackouts subside it's because so many businesses have closed their doors for good or moved to another state. Without this, the blackouts will get much worse. If the state tries to get into the business of buying and selling electricity and gas, I would bet it will go bankrupt within 2-3 yrs. Could you imagine the impact on the national economy from the bankruptcy of the U.S.'s most prosperous state. Obviously this is only my opinion, but I would keep my eyes on the energy markets - that's where the key to the turnaround lies. Take Care and thanks for the email. Kevin
