I'd like to introduce myself, as I'm sure we'll be in frequent contact in the coming weeks while I adjust to my new position at the Deal Control desk here in Portland. Please feel free to call or e-mail me with questions, concerns, alerts, or suggestions - I'm eager to learn as much as I can about this job and take it in new directions. So if there is anything I can do to make your jobs function more smoothly, let me know. As a first order of business, thank you for the heads-up on the new version of Deal Entry. A couple of our schedulers have been experiencing delayed efficiency with the program today - I'm not sure if that has anything to do with the new version or possibly our Terminal Server connection. Just wanted to let you know, in case anyone else has the same experience. I look forward to working with you, and again, feel free to call me anytime. Thanks,

Here is an email: Get on the band wagon for soccer: from the Washington Post....."Now the time is right. Because 1) Soccer fever is sweeping the country like malaria. And 2) We can get a short-term lease on a quality vehicle. And that's good, considering we're in a single-elimination situation, and we play 83-time winner Germany on Friday. Not to put too fine a point on it, but many Germans rank soccer behind only "full scale war" as the favorite sport of the country. (Hey, how about France, huh? Talk about gagging on the fromage! Three games, no goals. Au revoir, Pierre. Isn't it just like the French to go out early and leave it up to us to beat the Germans?)" USA USA USA

Q: I must apologize regarding the lateness of this e-mail. I sent the Excel file with crude oil data as an e-mail attachment earlier this afternoon, and when I checked my mail just now, I discovered that it had been rejected because of its size. I have reduced the amount of data somewhat by using the following limitations: WTI Crude Oil swap transactions only, starting from January 1, 2001, with delivery in the USA. This allowed me to get rid of some unnecessary fields. Please note that there are no calendar spread options or basis options included in the data, and, as this is from Clayton's database, it does not include failed trades or limit-order trades. The Excel file ("Crude Data") can be found in: O:\_Dropbox\Tom Barkley I have started looking at the data already, but it does not seem possible to plot all 24000+ points in one Excel chart. I hope this helps. Tom

IN: Ken - I appreciate the time today. We look forward to working with Enron, if the opportunity presents itself. Atlas can assist in structuring and raising substantial new equity - we already have $150mm (subject to due diligence and terms and conditions) that has been "soft circled". Please feel free to call me at any time.
