I think the two main issues you raise are the right ones but I have one other thought we should discuss internally. Do we want to create a set of incentives for the management of PJM that would entitle management to incentive compensation to the extent they meet certain goals -- eg relieving congestion on the grid increasing throughput across the transmission system expediting interconnection (measured in terms of actual interconnections not just applications approved) etc. This way we could create an organization that would have the incentive to make a workable and open transmission system.

It was the same quasi-legislative format as the previous hearing. Speakers were invited by the Commission and only the ALJ and the Commissioners could cross-examine the witnesses. Commissioners Lynch and Wood presided. Michael Kahn chairman of the Electricity Oversight Board was there and participated in some cross-examination as well. Speakers were: ISO: Kellan Fluckiger COO Anjali Sheffrin Director of Market Analysis Frank Wolak Chairman of Market Surveillance Committee Cal PX: David Jermain former VP Compliance Audits & Reg. Affairs Seth Wilson South Coast Air Quality Management District: Carol Coy Deputy Executive Director CPUC: Harvey Morris Principal Attorney SDG&E: Donald Garber ISO's main message was that many factors contribute to the high prices in the wholesale market: 1. Demand growth over past two years at or around 5% (98-99 99-00) 2. Lack of generation additions in entire west 3. Reduced imports of electricity from NW due to low hydro and policy to retain water in spring. 4. Natural Gas price increases over 1999 at almost 2x's 1999 levels in August 5. Nox emissions trading at or around $40/pound 6. Increased underscheduling from June-August ISO has concluded that the reduction in the price caps (from $500 to $250) have increased the overall cost of electricity with the highest total cost/MWh ($180) experienced in August relative to $167/MWh in June and $118 in July. Reason given is that the caps have reduced markup (could be interpreted as generator profit) in peak hours but supply costs have been driven up in lower load hours. While ISO staff said they will seek an extension of its authority from FERC to be set price caps also raised concerns about the affect any further reductions would have on the market. They conclude that such a reduction would deter new investment preclude generators from recovering fixed costs of production and increase dependence on OOM purchases (as a result of lower imports). ISO staff will make a proposal to the ISO Board October 6 to do the following: 1. File for extension of price cap authority to FERC. 2. Request FERC to institute mandatory forward contract requirement on generators for a significant portion of their capacity. 3. CPUC should allow full peak requirements to be forward contracted and hedged by UDCs 4. CPUC and state should promote price responsive demand programs 5. Maintain sufficient planning reserves. ISO Staff also stated that: 1. Need to create disincentive for underscheduling for load and generation a. Charge OOM cost to underscheduled load b. Charge replacement reserve cost to underscheduled generation c. Additional charge for real-time market transactions 2. Attract and expedite new resources MARKET POWER: While the Commissioners spent the majority of the day picking apart the underlying reasons for the rise in prices the conclusion of the hearing was President Lynch asking the ISO and PX to name names on who has been exerting market power. Both the PX and the ISO said that it would be impossible to determine from the information they have. Secondly the analysis they have done show that no single market participant is consistently exhibiting the ability (opportunity) to exercise market power. Therefore at one point or another nearly every market participant has market power. Wolak suggested that in order to reduce the amount of market power in peak periods require forward contracting OR increase profit incentives in off-peak period where generators many times sell below short-run marginal costs. No further quasi-legislative hearings are planned. [/INST] Category: Company Business, Strategy, etc.(elaborate in Section 3 [Topics])

The timing of next week's meeting to resolve the legislation reflects the legislative realities that the committees of jurisdiction in Congress will take up the realibility legislation along with other electricity issues as early as the second week of September. In fact congressional staff in the Senate and House are drafting legislative language on electricity issues during the August recess. They have pressed the coalition for a final work product. I gathered that at least some of what Jeff'spresentation to the NERC board would be about concerns matters beyond the legislation as such but since they go to the NERC board's operation and independence may go to our comfort level with NERC as the standards setting organization. Given the issues and concerns that have been addressed and communicated to NERC and our preference for the PJM model (as Jeff told John Q. Anderson in the conference call) I think NERC got the information it wanted to get out of the call even though it didn't like the answers: i.e. whether Sarah and I have been faithfully representing Enron's position whether Enron supports an SRO type organization and whether there is anything they can do to get us on board. Perhaps we should have another conference call early next week so that Sarah and I have our guidance from everyone going into the August 9th meeting. For one thing we need to determine if we are in any position to provide detailed comments on the shortened NERC version at the August 9th meeting or whether we do not wish to engage them on what specific changes it would take to get us on board. My sense is that since we have to deal with the players in the room on other issues our overall position will be strengthened if we have some specific comments to make to explain our decision not to support NERC's version even the shortened one. Don't get me wrong -- we have plenty of good reasons not to I just wasn't sure how engaged we wanted to be in identifying changes that would bring us on board since I gather our opposition is more fundamental (no Western deference budget concerns independence issues etc.). From: Charles Yeung/ENRON@enronXgate on 08/03/2001 11:57 AM To: John Shelk/NA/Enron@Enron Richard Shapiro/ENRON@enronXgate James D Steffes/ENRON@enronXgate cc: Linda Robertson/NA/Enron@ENRON Sarah Novosel/Corp/Enron@ENRON Subject: RE: Next NERC Reliability Meeting on Legislation -- August 9th John We are concerned how this meeting impacts what transpired between John Q Anderson and Jeff Skilling on the conference call on Thursday. David Cook was on the call as well and we do not understand the sudden urgency for NERC to reach closure. Has NERC given up on Enron? As we understand it John Q Anderson agreed to give Jeff an opportunity to present present before the NERC Board some ke y issues for Enron before trying to finalize any NERC legislation proposal. Does this meeting next week preclude that presentation from occurring? Or will there be willingness to alter the language significantly enough to appease the Enron concerns next week?

This will involve quoting prices for buying and selling bankruptcy protection in respect of reference entities many of whom are our counterparties in a variety of different commercial and financial contexts. This exciting cocktail of credit derivatives and Enron Online raises significant novel legal risks for Enron. Probably the most significant risk would arise in a situation where Enron has confidential information about a reference entity and wrongfully uses that information in pricing the credit derivative on that entity. This could well result in legal proceeding against Enron. In practice an allegation of misuse of confidential information can be very difficult indeed to defend without adequate procedures in place to safeguard that information. In fact Enron's credit trading will rely strictly on publicly available financial information and will not involve the use of confidential information unless the reference entity has specifically consented. Nevertheless to avoid the appearance of impropriety we are taking additional steps to consider confidentiality agreements we have in place with potential reference entities before deciding whether or not we will quote prices on such entities. Against this background is the ever-present risk of insider dealing. This crime - which carries a maximum prison sentence of 7 years and an unlimited fine - is committed where a person (or member of their family etc) deals in the securities (shares bonds or derivatives on them) of a listed company on the basis of unpublished (confidential) price-sensitive information. We do not expect at this time to deal in publicly traded bonds as part of EnronCredit.com but insider dealing is relevant to the conduct of Enron staff and could affect other parts of our business. In addition SFA rules require the safeguarding of confidential information the misuse of which is a serious disciplinary matter. In order to ensure the success of this new business and that confidential information is not misused either by Enron or its staff we are now introducing new policies and procedures (attached) which include a simple Restricted List procedure. In essence they require you - to take prudent steps to safeguard confidential information within Enron to notify Michael Brown Mark Elliott or myself if you become aware of confidential or sensitive information (or circumstances) about a counterparty which you think might make it appropriate for that counterparty to be placed on the Restricted List. To make life easier numerous examples of the types of information which might be relevant are set out in the attached procedures. Please familiarise yourself and anyone else in your group you think appropriate with these procedures. As you will see you are not expected to make difficult determinations about whether an entity should or should not be added to the Restricted List just to let us know if you think there is a possibility that it should be added. We will also provide quick briefing sessions to ensure that each of you is comfortable with these new procedures. Many thanks for your co-operation.

Spears the other Republican appointee is not at all free market in my view. I would not like this to mentioned anywhere else but I have found that the farm reps on the Commission may sound deregulatory but are not and have been really troublesome without a good free market person on board. And there are no truly free market persons on board at the Commission (every single other agricultural rep that I worked with on the Commission were trouble even though they claimed to be deregulatory -- and they were far worse before I got there and after I left.) I visited with Newsome a day before Inauguration and I was appalled at what they were planning to do concerning agency structure -- that would have elevated the regulatory lawyers and diminished the role of the economists at the agency. Misguided and showed to me a lack of understanding of how organizational structures can affect what comes out of an agency. I am often at odds with the industry view regarding CFTC issues. I don't think the futures exchanges who have a lot of power necessarily are pro-competition and many of the non-exchange folks who lobby on CFTC issues are Washington or New York (Democrat - which is why they want to involve Ken at this level) lawyers who do not understand markets and who are more interested in being able to claim influence or impact. The CFTC is in awful shape -- the quality of staff is horrendous and the Commission is relying on some of the worst people for their policy work (same folks that Brooksley Born used same folks who have advocated more regulation of the OTC market for years). Many quality folks do not want the job as Chairman because it's been such a backwater. I am looking for some good folks. Have at least one person who would be good at that job. And it's not Newsome. Please do not share this information with the usual folks as they hate me anyway (I'm too free market and have argued against their fixes).

We would like to bring them back to do light-duty work to get them in the swing of working again and also to get some adminstrative work done. I am concerned that bringing these employees back to work on light duty will cause these cases to become an Enron liability rather than an MG liability. I discussed this with Pat McCarthy the labor and employment law attorney we are using in NJ and he said that the liability would typically not transfer to GSP just because we brought them back . . . it would still be an MG liability UNLESS THE EMPLOYEE HURT HIMSELF AGAIN. In which case GSP owns it. However Pat said that a lot of what determines the ownership of the worker's comp cases is written into the purchase and sale agreement. He said that there may be language that addresses an employee's return to work from worker's comp. I know that we have an ongoing dispute about worker's comp with MG at this point. What would be your recommendation on bringing these employees back to work? As a bit of additional info one of the two employees seems eager to come back . . . the other one does not. An employee told me that the second employee actually has a lawsuit filed against MG/old GSP about his injury. [/INST] Category: Company Business, Strategy, etc.(elaborate in Section 3 [Topics])

I am less certain about the direction FERC will go on pricing since even the staff has recognized stumbling blocks in their own recommendation and offers possible variants. The ISO has not submitted revised tariff sheets for approval yet so it is unlikely they would try to implement their own plan in the near term. If they try to do so without FERC approval possible legal avenues might include the filing of a complaint at FERC asking for fast track processing (this fast is measured in weeks not days) and/or seeking injunctive relief in court (faster) which can be hard to obtain but not impossible depending entirely on the circumstances.

California has ignored FERC before. If they attempt to unilaterally implement changes what is the likelihood that the Feds step in to intervene?

Similar letters were delivered by Greenpeace Europe in native languages to Enron's offices in the UK Netherlands Spain and Belgium. I have attached a copy of one of the letters below. All the questions are the same in each. I have drafted a response with the goals of: 1) Being responsive to Greenpeace without being defensive or without greenwashing. We have an already-published public statement on climate change and a very positive solution-oriented story to tell with many facts and accomplishments to back up our statements. I think our letter can land in the stack that they consider positive responses and not in the stack of non-responses or we don't care responses. 2) Steering away from directly answering the no-win questions about Kyoto. I think we can respond to the letter in a way that provides meaningful answers to the general themes of the letter. I have discussed this with many of you already but I strongly feel that we should not get dragged down into debates over what we like/dislike support/oppose about Kyoto....we'll quickly get into questions we can't now answer and may never be able to answer. I'd prefer it if we rise above the politics of the issue and look solution-oriented by saying counties and companies should continue to be engaged in this important issue. 3) Developing corporate-wide messages that we can use in multiple applications -- arming our PR and govt. affairs advocates with a tight script to use in their efforts responding to shareholder inquiries and annual meeting Q&A Ken Lay or other executive speeches and presentations something for our Corporate Responsibility annual report. Sorry for the long preamble but climate change has become a very sensitive issue of late and our message/strategy needs to be very coordinated and we need to have one clear set of statements that everyone in the company can understand and use. With that said I also believe that these messages should be used very carefully as the subject matter is complex and straying too far from the basics can be dangerous. We should designate one or two clear spokespeople that can answer any follow up to the Greenpeace letter by press or policymakers and really stick to the boundaries of what's in our response letter. There is also the issue of customizing responses from the European offices using this letter as a template and adding a few examples of Enron good deeds in the local areas. I am not opposed to doing so but would again appreciate being able to review these responses before they go. Please let me know if you have other views. I would like to send our response by early next week maybe even Monday 4/23 if we can turn it around that fast. Thank you for your input and assistance and I look forward to your reply.

Recall that we tried to negotiate a settlement with insurers for some time and then UI served DPC with a notice of arbitration because of the threat of a bad faith claim. I think I summarized it earlier for you but essentially we now have the choice of pursuing litigation in London against insurers since United India has now sued us in London Court (in addition to arbitration because they figured out a little late that under the policy only quantum may be arbitrated and they don't want to admit liability). Our option before was only to sue them in India which really isn't an option which is why we agreed to arbitration. Basically UI can't decide what it wants to do but this memo from Linklaters sets forth DPC's options which Justin Ken Blades and I discussed regarding the pros and cons of litigation v arbitration. It's a complex mess and I'll be glad to sit down and explain it to you (or not) but we are basically writing to UI's counsel to try and determine what their position is and then we'll decide whether to litigate or arbitrate. Part of this relates to the adjuster's agreement with Ken as to the quantum owed upon a determination of liability. This is all very strange but nothing regarding India or DPC surprises me anymore. We'll talk about it when you have time but I just want you to know I'm taking care of this--let me know how involved you want to be (or not...).

It carried the LA Times version of the Lockyer comments a couple days ago. Today it has the NY Times article on Ken Lay. It's pretty clear that in the near-term Enron and it's leadership are at risk of being engulfed in a political firestorm which bounces from coast to coast gaining strength each step of the way. However it is the long-term challenge that draws my attention. From my research to date I am left with the strong impression that the Enron's capacity for acquiring distilling and assessing business information is much stronger than it's abilities with public policy information. Ken Lay you and your team have shaped a innovative and entrepreneurial company rooted in agile arbitrage of business knowledge. Like Goldman Sachs it is hard for the man on the street to understand precisely what Enron does. However because of your presence in businesses that play out daily in homes schools and small businesses Enron will be scrutinized in a way the Goldman couldn't imagine in it's worst nightmares. From my perspective the success of Enron's business model demands a sure footing in both business and public policy. Going forward these two areas of expertise need become intertwined to assure the success of the highly sophisticated ethical innovative and insightful global corporation known as Enron. I would like to help you succeed with this challenge. I look forward to our discussions. Kevin 213-926-2626 Advertisers make this site possible. There were 30693 page views last week.

Now they must decide whether those companies have done anything illegal. State Attorney General Bill Lockyer said Thursday he believes the evidence ``strongly suggests'' power companies acted illegally to drive up prices. He has said that he would love to put top energy executives in jail. Brandon Bailey and Chris O'Brien in the San Jose Mercury -- 5/25/01 Davis blackout warnings -- a significant policy change aimed at minimizing business and consumer disruptions Gov. Gray Davis ordered state officials Thursday to enact a three-tier blackout warning system. Forecasts of blackouts will be issued 48 hours beforehand Davis said. General areas will be identified in warnings issued 24 hours before likely outages. Precise locations will be announced an hour before the power is cut he said. Dan Morain and Nancy Vogel in the Los Angeles Times Greg Lucas and Lynda Gledhill in the San Francisco Chronicle Noam Levey and Dion Nissenbaum in the San Jose Mercury John Hill in the Sacramento Bee Ed Mendel in the San Diego Union Robert Garrett in the Riverside Press Michael Coit in the Santa Rosa Press -- 5/25/01 Davis' popularity plunges in poll -- With California's energy crisis mounting Democratic Gov. Gray Davis has suffered a precipitous fall in his job approval rating and image among state residents according to a Field Poll released yesterday. For the first time since his November 1998 election more Californians have an unfavorable view of Davis' performance than favorable. Carla Marinucci in the San Francisco Chronicle Hallye Jordan in the San Jose Mercury John Marelius in the San Diego Union -- 5/25/01 Poll puts Riordan Davis in tight race -- Californians' assessment of Gov. Gray Davis has plummeted drastically as he has struggled to handle the state energy crisis placing outgoing Los Angeles Mayor Richard Riordan in a virtual dead heat with him for the 2002 governor's race according to a Field Poll released Thursday. Though Riordan has given no clear indication that he intends to run for governor 42 percent of registered voters said they would support the Republican mayor should he challenge Davis the Democratic incumbent. Forty-three percent said they would vote for Davis. Emily Bazar in the Sacramento Bee -- 5/25/01 California to gain from GOP's loss -- A single party switch in the Senate on Thursday handed California's Democratic Sens. Dianne Feinstein and Barbara Boxer new clout with key leadership roles likely on issues ranging from military base closings to environmental cleanups. Vermont Sen. James Jeffords' announcement that he was quitting the Republican Party to be an independent affiliated with Democrats set up a takeover in which the Democrats with a de facto 51-49 majority will assume all Senate leadership posts and committee chairs. Bill Hillburg in the Los Angeles Daily News -- 5/25/01 PUC and 'baseline' rates -- Nine days after structuring the largest electricity rate increase in California history state regulators on Thursday launched a reexamination of the unpopular baselines used to determine how much each residential customer will pay. If the indicators are revised upward as most expect that would grant some customers relief from the rate hike but could necessitate future ones to generate enough revenue for power purchases. Tim Reiterman in the Los Angeles Times Michael Bazeley in the San Jose Mercury Carrie Peyton in the Sacramento Bee -- 5/25/01 Enron Bush -- Curtis H?bert Jr. Washington's top electricity regulator said he had barely settled into his new job this year when he had an unsettling telephone conversation with Kenneth L. Lay the head of the nation's largest electricity trader the Enron Corporation. Mr. H?bert chairman of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission said that Mr. Lay a close friend of President Bush's offered him a deal: If he changed his views on electricity deregulation Enron would continue to support him in his new job. Lowell Bergman and Jeff Gerth in the New York Times -- 5/25/01 Lockyer comes out swinging at oilman Davis has plenty of company in depths of poll -- The reaction from Gov. Gray Davis' camp to yesterday's poll showing him in the dumper was quick and blunt. Tell me something I don't already know adviser Paul Maslin said after being hit with the news that the latest Field Poll showed Davis' job rating down 18 points since January. None of this is news to us Maslin said. Matier & Ross in the San Francisco Chronicle -- 5/25/01 Water and power -- The California Public Utilities Commission authorized an increase in American States Water Co.'s rates at the Bear Valley Electric customer service area of its Southern California Water Co. unit to recover $2.4 million in deferred electric power costs. The amount will be recovered from customers over a five-year period. Sam Favate Dow Jones Newswires -- 5/25/01 Muni power -- Gov. Davis said he received a pledge Thursday from municipal utility officials that their agencies will sell excess power to the state at prices much lower than in the past. Despite simmering resentment at subjecting their customers to rolling blackouts the muni officials promised Davis they will keep cooperating with the state. Municipal utility customers including those in the Modesto Turlock and Merced irrigation districts will continue to face power blackouts officials said afterward. Jim Miller in the Modesto Bee -- 5/25/01 Edison merit raises -- Southern California Edison which is struggling to stay out of bankruptcy will hand out $19 million in merit raises to its 12000 employees today but top executives will forgo the raises because of the company's financial woes. Edison has doled out hefty merit raises in the past. But this year the company will pay the minimum under its variable compensation program which rewards employees for meeting certain company goals. Kate Berry in the Orange County Register -- 5/25/01 Cities with own utilities ask FERC to bar blackouts -- More than 15 California cities that have municipal utilities including Anaheim are asking federal regulators to exempt them from electricity blackouts ordered by the state's Independent System Operator. The city of Vernon was first to ask the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to rule that the ISO cannot force it to participate in California's rolling blackouts to serve demand in other areas. Vernon's utility argued that it was ridiculous to subject its customers to blackouts when it had enough power to keep the lights on. Amy Strahan Butler in the Orange County Register -- 5/25/01 Utility tax windfall -- As electricity rates rise consumers will get hit with a double whammy because of an obscure utility bill tax that many California cities have quietly been collecting for years. A member of the state Board of Equalization charges that some cities will reap windfalls from the utility user tax and he is backing a grass-roots movement to slash or repeal it. Few local governments are hurrying to forfeit the money saying that they need it to pay their own higher energy bills. Wendy Thermos in the Los Angeles Times -- 5/25/01 An air of discontent over diesel backups -- Gov. Gray Davis said yesterday that he may ask companies to run their emergency generators during Stage 3 electricity alerts as a way to stave off blackouts. And when blackouts do occur thousands of tractor-trailer-size generators will whir to life powering elevators and lights hospital equipment even assembly lines. But that prospect has created major concerns. Most of those industrial- strength generators run on diesel oil a highly polluting fuel. Because they were intended for emergency use generators have escaped most environmental regulations. What's more they are likely to be called into service on the hottest smoggiest days of the year. Carolyn Said in the San Francisco Chronicle -- 5/25/01 Power price controls -- The House Energy and Commerce Committee delayed consideration of a major energy bill Thursday as Republicans and Democrats met privately to explore a possible compromise placing price controls on soaring wholesale electric rates on the West Coast. The negotiations hinted at a possible watershed change in the Republicans' staunch opposition to price controls. An earlier effort to include such controls in the bill turned contentious and was defeated on a mostly partisan vote in subcommittee. Les Blumenthal in the Sacramento Bee -- 5/25/01 For seniors the heat can kill doctors warn -- As summer slouches toward Sacramento amid a drumbeat of calls to conserve electricity doctors and advocates for the elderly are sounding a counter-theme. Heat can kill. And most often it kills seniors. Year after year heat waves around the United States are deadlier than hurricanes or floods tornadoes or earthquakes according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Carrie Peyton and Nancy Weaver Teichert in the Sacramento Bee -- 5/25/01 Outages could be fatal for disabled -- Around the clock an electric pump supplies supplementary oxygen to 66-year-old Benny Pritchett's diseased lungs. Pritchett worries that a rolling blackout might kill him. The electricity goes out I'm a dead man said the San Bernardino apartment dweller and former chain-smoker. I've got a (back-up) oxygen tank. It lasts two hours. When it runs out I'm dead. Rolling blackouts aren't expected to last much more than an hour say Southern California Edison officials but their Web site recommends that any customer dependent on electrically operated life-support equipment buy an emergency generator. Richard Brooks in the Riverside Press -- 5/25/01 Gasoline prices -- Average gasoline prices statewide are nearly $2 a gallon and the Los Angeles region has once again been dubbed the nation's hub of traffic congestion. So what's a good Southern Californian to do? Plan a road trip. Hugo Martin in the Los Angeles Times -- 5/25/01 Offshore drilling -- A federal advisory panel Thursday urged the Bush administration to identify the five most promising areas to drill for natural gas in coastal waters off California and other states which have been off limits to drilling for nearly 20 years. Citing the nation's unmet energy needs the advisory group to Interior Secretary Gale A. Norton suggested that locating the top reservoirs of natural gas would help determine if there are grounds and support for a limited lifting of moratoriums on offshore drilling. The ban now covers 610 million acres of ocean off the Pacific Atlantic and Gulf coasts. Kenneth Weiss in the Los Angeles Times -- 5/25/01 Judge demands straight answers from El Paso Corp. -- An irate judge threatened yesterday to subpoena the president of a Texas energy firm accused of manipulating California natural gas prices saying he couldn't get straight answers out of another high-ranking company executive. The eruption by Curtis Wagner Jr. the administrative law judge presiding over a federal probe of alleged market manipulation by El Paso Corp. prompted the company to schedule voluntary testimony by President William Wise today in Washington D.C. Bernadette Tansey in the San Francisco Chronicle -- 5/25/01 El Paso executive and collusion -- The head of a Texas energy conglomerate personally endorsed a deal between two subsidiaries accused of manipulating the natural gas market in Southern California to drive up prices a senior official of the firm testified Thursday. The testimony in a trial-like hearing before the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission raised questions about whether top officials of Houston-based El Paso Corp. violated FERC rules requiring arm's-length dealings within a corporate family. The admission by El Paso executive Ralph Eads marked a shift from his previous testimony and was elicited through sharp questioning by an angry judge who threatened to subpoena Eads' boss. Ricardo Alonso-Zaldivar in the Los Angeles Times -- 5/25/01 Riverside no blackouts -- Southern California Edison won't immediately challenge Riverside's decision against using rolling blackouts to save energy this summer a spokesman said Thursday. Edison doesn't care how the city of Riverside curtails its energy use as long as the city makes the required cuts during a statewide power shortage Edison spokesman Steve Hansen said. Dan Lee in the Riverside Press -- 5/25/01 Energy crisis hits muni bonds -- Investors fled the California municipal bond market last month taking with them a net $3.5 billion their departure prompted in part by the state's energy crisis and taxes a fund analysis firm said Thursday. The withdrawals in April marked the worst such outflow in years and it comes as the state is preparing this August to issue a record $13.4 billion in bonds to bail out utilities. Loretta Kalb in the Sacramento Bee -- 5/25/01 With a perfectly negative crisis record Davis desperate for a win -- So far Gov. Gray Davis has amassed an unblemished record in his handling of the energy crisis. Not one major aspect of the situation has moved in the positive direction Davis said -- and clearly hoped -- it would to wit: Dan Walters in the Sacramento Bee -- 5/25/01 Hot days don't cut the power -- A combination of factors kept the state's beleaguered system out of the red this time. The heat wave didn't hit all areas of the state at the same time and cooler weather in the Pacific Northwest got power flowing from that region to California again. Also there have been no new power-plant malfunctions and many of the smaller generating facilities that were AWOL a few weeks ago when the last blackouts hit are operating again. A huge potential contributor to blackout avoidance -- but one that's difficult to quantify -- is conservation. Jack Katzanek in the Riverside Press -- 5/25/01 Long Beach Boeing layoffs -- Reflecting a sagging market for 100-seat jetliners the Boeing Co. will lay off about 600 employees this year at its commercial factory in Long Beach the company confirmed Thursday. That decision followed an internal study by Boeing that was completed earlier this year said spokesman Warren Lamb who did not elaborate. Ian Hanigan in the Long Beach Press -- 5/25/01 Hahn -- His job is to both prosecute and defend. And with that tricky mandate Los Angeles City Atty. James Kenneth Hahn for 16 years has led a law office that in sheer numbers would rank among the biggest in the country. With some 450 attorneys responsibility for both criminal and civil cases and an annual budget of $70 million the office like the city it serves is big diverse complex. But a review of Hahn's record suggests that his performance has been mixed--deliberate and plodding pragmatic and obstinate. Greg Krikorian and Patrick McGreevey in the Los Angeles Times -- 5/25/01 Villaraigosa and Hahn and housing -- It doesn't fire up voters like a stump speech on crime schools or traffic congestion. But the sheer magnitude of the city's housing shortage has placed it squarely--albeit quietly--on the agendas of both candidates running for mayor of Los Angeles. Eight years of a widely criticized lack of mayoral attention to the housing problem combined with a high concentration of low-wage workers has earned Los Angeles a reputation as one of the most unaffordable overcrowded metropolitan centers in the country plagued by low home ownership rates and slum conditions. Lee Romney in the Los Angeles Times -- 5/25/01 Villaraigosa and Hahn annd crime and gangs -- Mayoral candidates Antonio Villaraigosa and City Attorney James Hahn continued Thursday to compare their plans to deal with crime as they near the June 5 runoff election. Hahn filing papers in court to seek injunctions against two Wilmington gangs touted his efforts over the past several years to control gang activity throughout the city. The root of the violence is drugs and ... for turf and control Hahn said of the two gangs -- but which he added applies to most gangs in the city. Rick Orlov in the Los Angeles Daily News -- 5/25/01 Dean Andal -- State Board of Equalization member Dean Andal is expected to announce today that he plans to run for state controller next year. The 41-year-old Republican from Stockton said he will run on a platform that includes lowering utility taxes paid by residents and businesses in Los Angeles which are 10% and 12.5% respectively. The story is in the Los Angeles Times -- 5/25/01 Jim Rogan -- President Bush on Thursday nominated former Congressman James Rogan to be undersecretary of commerce for intellectual property and director of the U.S. Trademark Office. The job pays $130200 a year. Bush's selection of Rogan which will require confirmation by the Senate could be a positive sign for Hollywood which has been lobbying for increased enforcement of copyright laws including a crackdown on Internet piracy. Bill Hillburg in the Los Angeles Daily News -- 5/25/01 Living wage -- While attorneys speculated on the constitutionality of Santa Monica's newly approved living wage law hotel housekeeper Blanca Mendez was just hoping Thursday that she can benefit if a raise to $10.50 an hour goes into effect next summer at large downtown and beach-side businesses. It would be fantastic said Mendez who now earns $8.50 an hour after seven years at the Streamline Moderne-style Shangri-La Hotel near the ocean. The economy is very difficult everything is getting expensive like gas like energy. Oscar Johnson and Ofelia Casillas in the Los Angeles Times -- 5/25/01 9 tribes' casino plans put on hold -- Gov. Gray Davis won't approve any more agreements with Indian tribes to allow casinos until the federal courts resolve a legal challenge to California's Indian gaming law. So far the governor's moratorium on new Indian gaming compacts announced in a letter to nine California tribes doesn't appear to affect three Sonoma County tribes that have announced plans for casinos. But it could delay the progress of the nine other tribes that have asked the governor to negotiate gaming agreements including the Round Valley tribe in Mendocino County. Steve Hart in the Santa Rosa Press -- 5/25/01 Charity foundations growth -- California's charitable foundation assets--which were relatively modest as recently as two decades ago--are now growing at a rate faster than those in the rest of the country according to a study by the new USC Center on Philanthropy and Public Policy. In 1978 California held 8% of national foundation assets in 1998 it accounted for 14% the study said. During the same period the state's share of foundation grants grew from 7% to 11% of total giving nationwide it said. California is catching up and jumping forward said Marcia K. Sharp a research fellow at the USC Center on Philanthropy and Public Policy and a co-author of the study. Anne-Marie O'Connor in the Los Angeles Times -- 5/25/01 Documents seized in S.F. minority contract probe are inadmissible -- In a potential blow to prosecutors a U.S. judge said that federal investigators violated a San Francisco city official's privacy rights when they searched her office looking for evidence of fraud in a city minority contracting program. The FBI seized hundreds of pages of records from the San Francisco Human Rights Commission office of chief contract compliance officer Zula Jones in August 1999. Chuck Finnie and Lance Williams in the San Francisco Chronicle -- 5/25/01 Feinstein fast-tracks water storage plans -- California can't forestall a water crisis without building more storage facilities Sen. Dianne Feinstein said yesterday in responding to environmental critics of her bill to reauthorize the CalFed ecosystem restoration program. Eric Brazil in the San Francisco Chronicle Michael Gardner in the San Diego Union -- 5/25/01 Californians' recycling efforts hit skids -- Californians are recycling a lower percentage of redeemable plastic glass and aluminum beverage containers than they have in more than a decade the state Department of Conservation reported Thursday. While officials note the recycling drop is partially due to an increasing number of products available for redemption they also point to research suggesting consumers' habits may be slipping. Ed Fletcher in the Sacramento Bee -- 5/25/01 UC admissions policy -- A UC Berkeley request to be exempted from a University of California admissions policy is creating concern among administrators and faculty who object to looking at one campus in isolation. Instead they said the Berkeley request probably should be folded into a systemwide review of admissions already under way. Tanya Schevitz in the San Francisco Chronicle -- 5/25/01 Irvine cash crop: business -- Irvine One of the largest commercial developments in the county could be built in the next five to seven years replacing checkered fields of strawberries and other crops. The 670 acres of fields and a scattering of industrial buildings just outside Irvine's northeastern border is large enough to host 12 Disneylands but The Irvine Co. has other plans. Laura Corbin Jennifer Hieger and Elizabeth Aguilera in the Orange County Register -- 5/25/01 Like a Rolling Tone -- It looked like a scene from the hotel karaoke lounge where the microphone-hogging guy won't stop belting Tom Jones tunes and a few cocktail-sipping patrons keep their eyes glued to their drinks in embarrassment. But it was official state business at the state Capitol on Thursday when members of the Assembly attempted to pay tribute to Bob Dylan on his 60th birthday by feebly singing along with his 1973 recording of Forever Young. Lesli A. Maxwell in the Fresno Bee -- 5/25/01 Joe Lockhart -- Barely six months after joining Oracle Corp. as a communications consultant to chief executive Larry Ellison former White House press secretary Joe Lockhart has left the database software firm. Both sides yesterday denied a rift between the two men and blamed Lockhart's frequent trips from his home in Washington D.C. to Oracle's Redwood Shores headquarters for the departure.

Enron had made an original contribution to the library foundation back in 1998 totaling $250K over five years. I am working with Community Relations and A/A Recruiting to evaluate the latest request and to discuss where Enron may have interest or find leverage for our Government Affairs Recruiting or PR efforts. The Foundation is willing to work with us to establish whatever type of program(s) and/or participatory involvement we would like. We have discussed an Enron speaker series classroom lectures advisory committee seats and the likes. I have already had a chance to run this by Rick Shapiro and Rob Bradley. Although Rick was noncommittal regarding his team's time for speaking or lecturing he seemed supportive of the effort. Rob has already been participating in some speaking opportunities there and supported expanded efforts. What are your thoughts on contribution levels (another $250K was suggested by CR) and any specific program or relationship opportunities regarding the Library Center or School of Public Policy. Please grab me for quick conversation when you have time. Thanks. Mike [/INST] Category: Company Business, Strategy, etc.(elaborate in Section 3 [Topics])

LOS ANGELES -- In the latest attempt to fix California's troubled deregulated energy market officials adopted a unique variable-pricing plan that already is being criticized by power generators and traders as unworkable and praised by utilities and consumers as much needed protection against gouging. Under the plan adopted late last week by the governing board of the California Independent System Operator or ISO a quasipublic agency responsible for maintaining electricity reliability in the state the cap on wholesale power will be reset hourly from about $65 per megawatt hour at low-demand times to no more than $250 an hour at periods of high demand. It was the third time this year that officials effectively lowered the price cap on wholesale electricity in a bid to contain -- so far unsuccessfully -- soaring total power costs. The move underscores the chaotic atmosphere prevailing in California's power market after a two-year-old experiment in deregulation has come undone. In other deregulated markets such as New York and New England prices are capped at $1000 per megawatt hour which are intended to be low enough to prevent market abuse but high enough to give generators incentive to build new plants. California's system was supposed to work the same way. But because utilities in California divested themselves of the bulk of their plants but weren't allowed to lock in fixed-price supply contracts unlike in the other markets merchant generators have had much greater sway over prices here on the spot market where most power trades. During the first nine months of the year the average price of wholesale electricity was $90 per megawatt hour in California triple the price of a year earlier. Even on cool days in October the price generally has remained above $100 per megawatt hour. California utilities have lost money on those power purchases because their customers' rates are frozen at $54 to $65 per megawatt hour far lower than the average price utilities have had to pay for that power. The deficits exceeded $5 billion in the June-to-September period. California utilities buy the power used by their customers from the state-sanctioned auctions administered by the ISO and a sister organization the California Power Exchange. In New York and New England by comparison less than 20% of power is purchased from the spot markets because utilities there were able to sign the fixed-price contracts which California utilities weren't allowed to do. The price-cap decision passed last week by a vote of 13 to 10 primarily with support from utilities and board members representing consumer interests. It was pushed aggressively by Pacific Gas & Electric Co. and Southern California Edison the state's two big investor-owned utilities that have gotten caught in the price-spike vise this year. Some ISO members say they had no choice but to support the measure to ratchet down price caps. We're going after the windfall profits said S. David Freeman general manager of the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power who voted for the measure. What we've got now is a market accustomed to ripping off the consumer. This can't be allowed to go on. But other experts said the hasty measure may make California's problems even worse. The short-term regulatory fix is always to fix prices said Pam Prairie director of the Institute of Public Utilities at Michigan State University in East Lansing. But there's a real danger you'll set prices too low and make your supply problems even worse. Other economists agreed. At best this is poorly administered cost-based regulation said Frank Wolak an economics professor at Stanford University who sits on an independent market-monitoring committee at the ISO. At worst it creates all sorts of perverse market incentives. For example it may increase the problem of megawatt laundering on hot days in which in-state generators sell power to out-of-state customers who then sell it back into the state effectively bypassing the cap. Likewise it could encourage generators to build new plants outside of California rather than where they are needed near its major cities also to avoid the cap. In the end it could increase stresses to the state's already overburdened transmission system. In fact the decision already has brought to a halt the state's forward electricity market which allows wholesale customers to sign contracts for power they will use in the future. The market had been trading as much as 1000 contracts a week. On Friday there was practically no activity. This decision shows the height of lunacy said Rick Shapiro a managing director at Enron Corp. the giant Houston-based energy trader. Mr. Shapiro said Enron and other generators will file appeals at the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission asking that the new pricing formula be rescinded. It is possible the FERC may throw out the pricing formula anyway. It is expected to issue a major order on Nov. 1 directing changes in California's market structure. That order will include its determination of the effectiveness of price caps. It also is expected to judge the merits of the governance structure at the ISO which has lately been marked by infighting. Recently consumer groups have charged that the ISO board has put the business interests of its members ahead of members' fiduciary duty to California residents. The most recent price-cap measure was approved over the objections of executives at the ISO whose job it will be to implement the formula. ISO Chief Executive Terry Winter said the measure is flawed because it doesn't take into account the amount of power available to the California market. Mr. Winter fears the caps will place the state at a disadvantage relative to neighboring states with no price caps. About 11 states are electrically interconnected in the West meaning power can be moved between them and chase the highest prices. We keep getting accused of making our market too complicated Mr. Winter said. Then along comes this proposal with caps that would adjust repeatedly throughout the day depending on demand.

Enron Offers Cash To Help Azurix Take Itself Private By Rebecca Smith Staff Reporter of The Wall Street Journal 10/30/2000 The Wall Street Journal A12 (Copyright (c) 2000 Dow Jones & Company Inc.) Enron Corp. offered to lend Azurix Corp. an Enron spinoff $275 million so that it could take itself private. Enron which has been frustrated with the global water company's performance suggested Friday that public shareholders receive a cash offer of $7 a share for their Azurix stock. While nearly double the stock's value prior to the offer the suggested price nevertheless was far below the $19 at which Azurix made its debut in 1999. An Azurix spokeswoman said the board on which Enron has seats had not yet decided how to treat the Enron offer. An Enron spokesman said that taking the company private would give us more opportunity to directly affect our investment. In 4 p.m. New York Stock Exchange composite trading Friday Azurix soared $3 to $6.56 in heavy trading. Azurix had hoped to create a splash by doing to the water business what Enron had done to the energy business -- increase competition and provide trading skills capable of creating new financial products out of old commodities. But Azurix stumbled nearly from the outset. Deregulation of the water business and government privatizations of water systems on which it was counting were slow to come crimping growth opportunities and profit. And Enron accustomed to higher faster returns grew impatient with the capital-intensive water business. The company's first chief executive Rebecca Mark a onetime head of Enron's international division resigned in the summer with the agreement of Enron executives who said it was time for new leadership. The incoming chief executive John Garrison said he would look for buyers for some of the company's businesses he was unavailable to comment Friday. Ms. Mark was believed to be considering making an offer for some of those businesses herself. She declined a request for an interview. In its letter to Azurix officers Enron said the water company received four offers from prospective suitors after Ms. Mark's departure the best of which came from an unidentified bidder who offered $7 a share and went through a lengthy due-diligence process before backing down apparently spooked by Azurix's cash flow capital structure tax considerations and some securities litigation. In its proposal letter made public Friday Enron said it concluded that there is no other buyer willing to pay the $7 and so proceeded with its own offer. But Enron said it won't try to limit Azurix's ability to negotiate a better deal with others should they come forward. Finally Enron noted that Azurix had considered various partial or full-liquidation alternatives but said they didn't seem likely to produce more than $7 a share.

Enron Offers Loan to Azurix Enron Corp. offered to lend Azurix Corp. an Enron spinoff $275 million (327.6 million euros) so that it could take itself private.

All Rights Reserved. Business Wessex switch likely Adam Jones in New York 10/28/2000 The Times of London News International 2W 64 (Copyright Times Newspapers Ltd 2000) Wessex Water's American parent company is likely to be taken private after a disastrous 14-month spell as a quoted company. Wessex which provides water services to the South of England was bought by Azurix in 1998 for Pounds 1.6 billion. Azurix wanted to use Wessex's expertise in privatised water supply to build a global business. However since listing at $19 a share in June last year Azurix stock has gone into freefall closing at less than $4 earlier this week. Azurix slumped because it drastically misjudged the number of privatisation opportunities. It emerged last night that Enron the Texan energy and trading company that is Azurix's biggest shareholder has taken the unusual step of offering to lend Azurix $275 million (Pounds 190 million) to buy its publicly held shares thereby taking it private. The Enron proposal would value Azurix at about $800 million or $7 per share - 63 per cent less than the IPO price. Enron would control Azurix and Wessex Water if it went private. Copyright 2000 Dow Jones & Company Inc. All Rights Reserved. BUSINESS Enron water unit could go private under loan plan NELSON ANTOSH Staff 10/28/2000 Houston Chronicle 3 STAR 1 (Copyright 2000) Enron offered Friday to lend Azurix its struggling water affiliate about $275 million so Azurix can go private by purchasing 38.6 million shares that are publicly traded. The deal would have Azurix buying back its stock at $7 per share about double what the shares were trading for Thursday. That's a big comedown for Azurix shares which sold for $19 each when the Houston company went public in June 1999. The maneuver technically can be called a take-under said analyst Carol Coale of Prudential Securities in Houston. She also described it as Enron's least painful solution for what to do with the venture that never lived up its ambitious plans. Nothing about Azurix has been positive for Enron in my view said Coale. This is a solution to a problem. Azurix spokeswoman Diane Bazelides said its board is studying Enron's proposal. She added that it was too early to comment on the offer because the proposal's structure had not been outlined. Enron imposed no deadline for a decision by Azurix but reserved the right to withdraw the offer if Azurix's position with prospective customers and employees deteriorated. One of Enron's conditions is that Azurix not sell any major assets before the buyout. The deal would not change Enron's large stake in Azurix said Palmer. It owns a third while the other third is owned by the Atlantic Water Trust in which Enron owns a 50 percent voting interest. The proposal's advantages include giving public shareholders a premium to the market price said Enron spokesman Mark Palmer. The common stock of Azurix zoomed Friday on the news gaining $3 to close at $6.56 on the New York Stock Exchange. Becoming a private company would give Azurix management greater flexibility in restructuring. Coale said it would reduce Azurix's general and administrative costs helping it to bid against lower- cost foreign competition particularly two big French companies. Azurix's high cost structure has been its primary problem she said. Azurix has been looking at cost and strategies ever since it got a new president and chief executive on Aug. 25 said Bazelides. That was the date that Rebecca Mark resigned as Azurix's high-profile chairman and chief executive. Enron and Azurix have been looking at strategic alternatives for nine months J. Mark Meets Enron's executive vice president for corporate development said in a letter filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. One alternative was selling the company he said. That didn't work out because the offers from three companies didn't exceed $4 per share. The fourth potential buyer said it would consider offering $7 per share said Meets. But that suitor backed out citing reasons like cash flow complexity of the capital structure tax considerations and pending securities litigation. We are obviously quite disappointed by this most recent turn of events Meets said in the letter. However we strongly believe that there is no other buyer willing to pay the $7 per share initially proposed (but later withdrawn) by the fourth bidder. Copyright 2000 Dow Jones & Company Inc.

Ken Herman American-Statesman Capitol Bureau Chief 10/28/2000 Austin American-Statesman A1 (Copyright 2000) Not long ago at a glossy wooden table in a Texas Capitol office two of Gov. George W. Bush's high-level appointees discussed one of the key issues in state government these days. It involved the relative merits of White House posts that could be available to the two appointees if Bush becomes president. Asked this week whether it's a common topic around the Capitol one of the appointees gestured to the anteroom of his office and made a motion indicating that even the midlevel folks have Washington on their minds. Near the banks of the Colorado Potomac Fever is a near-epidemic. And though it is political faux pas to be too open about doing White House transition planning before Election Day be assured it is going on at Bush headquarters where top officials are cognizant of the fine line between looking too confident now and looking too unprepared later. The candidate himself -- as well as his top aides -- steers clear of transition talk. When asked who might wind up in his Cabinet Bush looks backward instead of forward saying that his selection of Dick Cheney as his running mate should offer a glimpse of the kind of people who would wind up in his administration. The transition work such that it is is under the aegis of longtime Bush friend and aide Clay Johnson who began as head of the gubernatorial appointments office and now serves as chief of staff. Johnson said nobody has been interviewed for any Washington post but he has compiled a file of folks who are interested in serving in a Bush administration. Johnson also has been reading up on previous transitions -- ones that went well and ones that didn't. His preliminary conclusion is that the outgoing administrations are generally helpful and supportive even if they were ousted by the incoming administration. It's the incoming administrations that can make the mistakes he said. There is no shortage of think tanks that have think-tanked the topic. Back in August the Heritage Foundation based in Washington issued a transition handbook titled The Keys to a Successful Presidency. Though we really don't expect either campaign to talk about it (and would discourage them from doing so) the message here is it's time to start planning for a possible presidential transition quietly well behind the scenes but with the understanding that the preparation done during the next 70 or so days and the work done in the 70 or so days that follow (between the election and the inauguration) will very well determine the initial success or failure of the next administration Herbert Berkowitz a foundation vice president said in releasing the study. All indications are that the Bush team has been following the advice with Johnson at the helm. Johnson cautions against expectations that a Bush administration would be overloaded with Texans. It's the United States of America not the United States of Texas he said. Despite that caveat there is no shortage of Texans who are considered shoo-ins to fill some of the thousands of slots Bush could offer if he wins. Johnson confirms that he is very interested in a Washington job. Early speculation among Bush aides makes Johnson a potential leading contender for head of personnel at the White House. Karen Hughes Bush's communications director since his 1994 gubernatorial campaign is expected to become Bush's press secretary if he wins the White House. Karl Rove Bush's longtime political guru also will be on board though he could wind up with an out-of- the-White-House post perhaps at the Republican National Committee. Not as certain is the potential future for Joe Allbaugh who is part of the iron triangle of top advisers -- along with Rove and Hughes -- who have been on board with Bush since the 1994 campaign. Allbaugh serves as manager of the presidential campaign and previously served as chief of staff in the governor's office. Capitol speculation indicates Allbaugh could decide to skip a White House post possibly in favor of a lobbying job if he is not tapped as chief of staff. That post could go to Don Evans a longtime Bush friend who headed the megasuccessful fund-raising effort for the presidential campaign. However not everyone has Potomac Fever. For example Terral Smith Bush's legislative director said he will stay in Austin to lobby. In addition to the speculation about appointees the approaching election has sparked talk about when Bush might leave office if he wins. Under the U.S. Constitution he could remain governor until he has to become president on Jan. 20. Much more likely however is that Bush would leave office sooner than that perhaps as soon as two or three weeks after the Nov. 7 election if he wins. That could cause a housing problem for Bush whose main residence is the Governor's Mansion which comes as a free perk of the job. The Bushes have a home under construction at their ranch in Crawford near Waco. The ranch also has a smaller house in which the Bushes now spend weekends. Not out of the question is that Bush could work out an arrangement with Lt. Gov. Rick Perry who would become governor if Bush resigns to remain in the Governor's Mansion for several weeks after he leaves office. If the race among Texas senators to replace Perry as lieutenant governor complicates the timing of the resignation Bush could stay in the governor's office a little longer but no later than the first week of January. After all he will want to give Perry time to bask in his gubernatorial inauguration before the Legislature convenes Jan. 9. No matter when Bush resigns confidantes believe he might use his Crawford ranch for interviews with potential top-level appointees including Cabinet members.

LOS ANGELES -(Dow Jones)- A Dynegy executive said Friday that the California Independent System Operator's plan to impose hourly price caps on the wholesale power market will compromise reliability by forcing generators to sell electricity out of state. If the ISO says it will not buy above a certain price and generators cannot operate below that price then we have no choice but to find other markets to participate in said Dynegy senior vice president of marketing and trading asset management Lynn Lednicky. That may lead to the ISO not finding the power it needs at a price it wants to pay. The ISO plans to construct hourly price caps each month based on forecast load natural gas prices and generation unit efficiency. The caps will take effect Nov. 3 or soon therafter. Dynegy Inc. (DYN) sent a letter to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission asking it to address reliability consequences of the price caps before Nov. 3. Dynegy specifically requested that FERC discuss the issue at its Nov. 1 meeting when it will release a report on California's electricity problems. Enron Corp. (ENE) and Southern Company (SO) share Dynegy's concerns about reliability and plan to petition FERC about the issue said a trader listening in to a conference call between the three companies. -By Jessica Berthold Dow Jones Newswires 323-658-3872 jessica.berthold@dowjones.com Copyright 2000 Dow Jones & Company Inc.

Of DOW JONES NEWSWIRES New York -(Dow Jones)- Shares of Azurix Corp. (AZX) jumped 84% in heavy trading Friday after parent Enron Corp. (ENE) proposed to take the company private in a $7-a-share buyout. Filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission showed that Enron made the proposal after not being satisfied with offers it had received from four third parties for its stake in Azurix. In a letter to two members of Azurix's board Enron said three potential buyers were unlikely to be willing to pay more than the then-current market price of approximately $4 a share. Enron said a fourth potential buyer indicated it would consider a $7-a-share offer but it said that proposal was recently withdrawn. The reasons given by the bidder included pro forma cash flows the complexity of the capital structure tax considerations and the currently pending securities litigation the letter said. Mark Palmer a spokesman for Houston-based Enron declined to say whether Enron was entertaining current third-party interests or was in any talks with other parties regarding its Azurix stake. In New York Stock Exchange composite trading Azurix ended Friday up $3 to $6.56 on 2.8 million shares compared with average daily volume of 239000 shares. Enron was up $1.38 or 1.8% to $78.88 on 1.6 million shares compared with its daily average turnover of 2.4 million. In the SEC filing Enron saying it's familiar with Azurix's various partial and full liquidation alternatives said its buyout proposal is conditioned upon Azurix not selling any significant assets prior to the buyout. Although we agree that such plans may result in greater value to Azurix's shareholders than the maintenance of the status quo we believe that these options almost certainly will not result on a present value in a greater return to Azurix's shareholders than $7 a share the letter said. Enron also said its buyout proposal doesn't include any breakup fees or other deal protection devices. This frees Azurix's board to pursue an acquisition that might provide greater value to shareholders. Daine Bazelides a spokeswoman for Azurix declined to say whether Azurix is now entertaining offers for the company. She did however confirm the information contained in Enron's filing. The historical information in the filing is factually correct she told Dow Jones Newswires. She said she doesn't know when Azurix board will respond to Enron's proposal. In the filing Enron didn't set a deadline but warned that Azurix's position with customers and employees may deteriorate further. We must therefore reserve the right to withdraw our proposal at any time Enron's letter said. In the letter Enron pointed out that Azurix had retained two internationally recognized investment bankers early this year to evaluate strategic alternatives which included the potential sale of the company to unrelated third parties. Enron said it strongly believes there isn't another buyer willing to pay $7 a share for Enron's indirect interest in Azurix. We believe it is in Azurix's best interest as well as the best interest of its shareholders and employees if Azurix were no longer a publicly traded company Enron said. -By Christopher C. Williams Dow Jones Newswires 201-938-5219 Copyright 2000 Dow Jones & Company Inc. All Rights Reserved. Enron offers to buy out Azurix Financial Times By Hillary Durgin in Houston Published: October 27 2000 23:31GMT \| Last Updated: October 27 2000 23:36GMT Enron the Houston-based energy and trading group said on Friday it had offered up to $275m in funding to take Azurix private at a buy-out price of $7 per share. The specific structure of Enron's proposal has yet to be determined Enron said. Azurix said its board would now consider the proposal. The timing of any decision was unclear. Enron owns directly and indirectly about 66 per cent of Azurix the troubled Houston water company whose main asset is UK-based Wessex Water. The buyout offer is the latest development in a history of problems at Azurix which was spun off from Enron and taken public at an offering price of $19 per share. But a combination of poor market timing competitive industry conditions and empty promises by the company on Wall Street took their toll on the company whose shares have since plummeted and have been trading most recently around the $3-per-share range. In August Rebecca Mark Azurix chief executive officer resigned both from Azurix and from the board at Enron. Enron's offer came after four unnamed parties approached Enron about buying its stake in Azurix. While three of the four were unwilling to pay more than the then market price of about $4 per share a fourth party who was considering offering $7 per share (before accounting for any dilution for stock options) later declined to pursue the transaction Enron said in Friday's letter to Azurix outlining the buyout proposal. We strongly believe that our proposal is fair to Azurix's public stockholders the letter stated. Our proposed transaction would permit Azurix's stockholders to receive on a timely basis a cash payment for their shares that is significantly above the price at which those shares have traded in several months. Analysts that follow Azurix and had valued the shares at between $6 and $8 per shares said the offer was fair. Analysts that follow Enron said that Azurix's business strategy had proved to be a failure and was characteristic of the hard asset approach that Enron has gradually distanced itself from. Enron's shares closed at $78.88 up $1.38 on Friday. Azurix's shares rose $3 to close at $6.56. [/INST] Category: Company Business, Strategy, etc.(elaborate in Section 3 [Topics])

Mr. Skilling's office is hesitant to allocate more than two hours without your recommendation. Emerson is being persistent. The key players from Emerson are David Farr newly appointed CEO and James Berges President and effectively the leader of Emerson's strategic development effort. It is anticipated that both would attend the meeting. Emerson execs want to (i) get to know Mr. Skilling and other senior management (ii) discuss mutual business opportunities and (iii) hold a discussion about the transformation of Enron from a pipeline company to its current form. The last point has to do with Emerson's continuing self-transformation effort and how Enron achieved its transformation. I need your advice and recommendation. Please respond by e-mail or telephone (x5-4040). Background: Emerson initiated this latest round of contact with Enron in November 2000 when Mike Train and Mark Proudfoot both Emerson VPs of Corporate Development visited the Enron building hosted by Steve Kean. I met them at that time. Since that initial meeting Emerson has aggressively pursued a business joint venture as preferred supplier with Martin Wenzel and the distributed power business I believe with promising results. My sense is that Emerson is uniquely positioned as EES' partner in that business. I am waiting to receive an update from Martin. Emerson is also interested in becoming a preferred supplier for EES's DSM business. While we generally support that idea we are pressing Emerson to reciprocate by becoming a customer of our bundled outsource business. Emerson is highly decentralized and our efforts to date have been unsuccessful. I want to use the meeting as an opportunity to press Emerson to consider a proposal from EES's bundled outsource business. Please let me know your recommendation on this matter.

I also can tell you that the feedback from participants regarding your briefing has been terrific. We are reviewing all the material this week to begin the process of re-creating the session on the Secretary's webpage for the Forum and I will be going over the video and audio clips for posting. Recognizing that your slides were proprietary it would be most valuable if we could post as much of your powerpoint briefing as possible--whatever you feel comfortable with sharing. Whatever that turns out to be if your staff could email that to me I will make sure that only that and not the original that you sent to me gets posted. I am not sure where the senior leadership of the DoD will be going in the coming months however I know that the discussion of your experience at Enron and the experiences of your panel mates will have an influence. A more formal letter of thanks will be forthcoming but for now thank you again for joining us and helping to make this a memorable and most important Highlands Forum.

We believe that relief is best provided by giving San Diego the ability to procure power on a fixed price basis from the market. San Diego has offers in front of it now those should be evaluated and the legislature and the commission should give San Diego the flexibility to accept one or more of them. This is sounder than running huge deferrals (deficits) to be later recovered from consumers. Rate relief should be accompanied by real reform. Rate caps have bad long term consequences: they cause shortages. Combining short-medium term rate relief with expedited siting of new facilities will address the near term problem while laying the proper groundwork for a long term solution.

Nicholas O'Day 03/08/2001 08:58 PM To: Steven J Kean/NA/Enron cc: Subject: Steve we briefly discussed last Tuesday the possibility of using Mr Lay's contact with the Chairman of Toyota Mr Okuda to assist us in securing a senior executive from Toyota to speak at the May 15 conference in Tokyo. We agreed that I should draft a letter for Jeff Skilling to send to Mr Okuda. I have had a rethink and believe that as a matter of courtesy (Japanese style) it would be preferable in the first instance if the contact with Mr Okuda is done from chairman to chairman. Mr Lay's letter will serve as an introduction to Jeff Skilling and will also permit Enron Japan to follow up directly with Mr Okuda's staff in Japan. We can then draft a letter for Jeff Skilling to confirm arrangements. I attach a draft letter for that purpose. If the revised approach is in order I will liaise on the matter with Rosalee and Sherri with a copy to you. kind regards [/INST] Category: Document editing/checking(collaboration)

We are preparing to send it out next week. Please let me know if you have any comments or concerns on the e-mail. As for distribution we've worked with HR on the distribution list for VPs but will circle back with David Oxley's team to ensure we have the most up-to-date list. Since some VPs in redeployment will most likely find positions within Enron by November I don't plan to exclude them from the distribution ... unlike United Way where we are not soliciting employees in redeployment for a contribution. I look forward to any feedback.

In other words when they were trying to get AB 1890 passed when they were fighting Proposition 9 when they floated their rate reduction bonds and when they talked to analysts and rating agencies I'm sure they assumed that they would live under the rate freeze and take the risk of stranded cost recovery whithin the statutory deadline.

I've answered them to the extent they involve legal/regulatory issues. If you need anything further please don't hesitate to call. ? Can a new shipper who enters into an FTS-1 contract with zero MDQ in order to purchase a shipper call option or sell a transporter put option be allowed prior to the exercise date to transfer the underlying option rights by permanently releasing this contract? YES. ? Will we be required to report these contracts with zero MDQ on the Index of Customers and/or the Transactional Report? YES. ? Can the releasing shipper permanently release a portion of his existing MDQ and choose to keep or transfer the option rights? YES. The shipper could even release all of its MDQ (reducing it to zero) and keep its option rights. ? How is it determined whether a contract with an option amendment is within the min/max tariff rate or needs to be filed as a negotiated rate? The option fee is converted to a per-Dth per day rate and added to the transport rate. If the total exceeds the maximum tariff rate it's negotiated. Otherwise our position is that it's not negotiated. We are not 100% positive that FERC will agree with us on this issue.
