- all of which require the destruction of individual animals and even entire herds . our testing and data analysis processes also allow us not only to separate infected from clean animals , but also to gain knowledge vital to development of preventative vaccines . to date , genethera has successfully developed the assay ability to detect mad cow and chronic wasting disease , a disease affecting elk and deer in north america . diagnostic assays for e . coli ol 57 : h 7 and johnne ' s disease are in the final stages of development . vaccines for e . coli ol 57 : h 7 and johnne ' s disease , both of which are diseases affecting cattle , are in advanced stages of development . in the future , the company plans to expand assay application research to a wide range of diseases / animals , the immediate targets being mad cow , hoof mouth , west nile and newcastle . genethera can detect bse using the companies patented live animal blood test that evaluates the e . d . r . f . gene sequence . the e . d . r . f . gene is proven to decrease dramatically before any tse infection is noticeable in a live animal or human . the patent gtha holds is broad based and can detect all tse diseases including mad cow ( bse ) in cattle , cwd in elk deer and creutzfeld - jacobs in humans the company ' s patented test can detect these diseases faster than any other method developed in the marketplace and at far less a cost . the test can also be used on a mass scale using roche f - pcr , dna analyzing robotics equipment . genethera can analyze over 2000 blood samples a day with one f - pcr machine and a single technician . the project will prove highly profitable at approx $ 4 . 00 per test when wide scale commercialization is under way . a multi - billion dollar , international demand for commercial mad cow testing has emerged around the globe . japan conducted 3 million post - mortem rapid mad cow tests last year alone . they used the western blot developed by prionics ag in swizterland and bio - rad ' s rapid test . costs are between $ 20 and $ 40 dollars per test . most importantly , other tests in the marketplace cannot detect the disease until the animal has been killed . testing through post - mortem brain tissue exams is extremely labor intensive and costly . japan spent between $ 60 million - $ 120 million on 3 million post mortem rapid mad cow tests in 2004 . genethera ' s simple blood test can be collected using their patented field collection system . the sample is then mailed to the lab for testing . the company also stated in their recent 10 k that they are currently in negotiations with strategic testing partners that we believe will absorb the costs of commercializing our live animal mad cow test . management : dr . tony milici -

"Subject: investment / partnership proposal dear sir , i am mr . femi olugbade , a bank executive . i am sending this message to you in confidence . i am asking for your favor in the transfer of some money belonging to one mr barry kelly ( deceased ) whose death we were not aware of until we no longer got reply to our routine notifications to his forwarding address . we were however told by his employers , that he died from an automobile crash . now all attempts to trace his next of kin has proved abortive . there is however no trace in any of his official documents of a next of kin . the basic line here is that at the expiration of 6 years , the money will revert to the ownership of the government . nobody is ever coming to claim this money having spent 5 and a half years in our bank . so all i am asking from you is that you should stand in as his next of kin to avoid the money going into the hands of corrupt government officials . also note that , it is impossible for the money to leave the coffers of the bank without a next of kin , who also must be a foreigner . further workings of this initiative , and a sharing ratio , plus possible areas of investment will be discussed as soon as i hear from you . best regards . femi olugbade",1

"Subject: investment op in proven nasa technology hey , i thought you might like to take a look at viaspace analyst research , report profiling services by ipodesktop . com viaspace , inc . stock symbol : vspc . ob * float : 24 mm ( est ) stock price 7 / 1 / 05 : $ 3 . 45 common shares 6 / 28 / 05 : 283 mm ( est ) recent price range : $ 2 . 80 - $ 3 . 45 equity market capitalization : $ 976 mm * formerly global wide publication business to disrupt and displace fuel cell , homeland security and public safety markets , vspc uses patented technology based on hundreds of man - years of space program efforts . vspc has licensed technology that has been has been nurtured , tested and proven in labs and space by nasa , jpl , caltech and university of southern california ( usc ) . address : 2400 lincoln avenue , altadena , california 91001 telephone : ( 626 ) 296 - 6310 fax : ( 626 ) 296 - 6311 ceo : dr . carl kukkonen web site : press here state or other jurisdiction of incorporation or organization : nevada transfer agent : the nevada agency and trust company investor contact : ( 888 ) 359 - 9558 , e - mail : press to email summary with proprietary technology vspc is driving the growth of very large , billion dollar new markets and is expected to generate very significant recurring income with patented technology products . to gain competitive advantage , strategic partners are willing to integrate vspc ' s products on a worldwide basis . future vspc cost - effective growth is based on the ' fabless business ' model , perfected by the semiconductor industry which , for example , outsources wafer manufacturing to the far east . strong management team a strong management team is the most important , critical ingredient to creating future shareholder value . vspc has a strong management team ( see below ) . large rapidly growing markets in general , to increase shareholder value a company must participate in rapidly growing markets , and should try to be a significant player in targeted markets . vspc expects to dominate billion dollar markets that do not exist today , by introducing ' believe it or not ' technology innovations that create and expand markets . "" breakthrough "" products in the vspc pipeline vpsc products in the process of commercialization are expected to enable up to 10 hours of laptop computer usage , and three weeks of cell phone operation using fuel cells , gps - free navigation , especially for places where gps doesn ' t work ( a top dod priority ) , automated analysis of air and seaport cargo containers based on x - ray imaging ( homeland security ) , identification of narcotics , chemicals , and biological weapons . another total breakthrough , with a nanotechnology based mass spectrometer is a portable , carry - on suitcase size device that processes identifies one molecule at a time : further miniaturization is expected to shoebox size , compared with stationary desk size provided by today ' s competitors . significant recurring income from fuel cell batteries in five years , annual revenue from disposable fuel cartridges for fuel cell - powered portable electronic devices is expected to range between $ 7 billion on the low side to $ 45 billion on the high side . that market does not exist today . vspc ' s fuel cell cartridge business model is similar to the well - known razor / razor blade model , which is to sell the razor and then make much more money on the recurring blade business . the fuel cell is a razor , and the disposable fuel cartridge is the razor blade . another analogy is the flashlight / battery model . imagine if a company had the primary intellectual property involved in manufacturing flashlights . it would probably license that technology to major flashlight manufacturers , in return for help in dominating the recurring flashlight battery business . in this case vspc has the proprietary rights to the ' flashlight ' - - the fuel cell - - and intends to sell the "" flashlight battery "" - - specifically , disposable fuel cartridges , for an end - user price of $ 2 - $ 3 each . vspc is currently negotiating to provide its patented fuel cell technology to major computer manufacturers , in return for their agreement to use disposable fuel cartridges developed by vspc , the manufacturing of which will be outsourced to well - known , major plants in the far east . intellectual property protected with patents vspc ' s fuel cell technology , for example , is protected by over 70 issued and pending patents . strategic partners lend credibility to create a cost - effective worldwide footprint , emerging companies must partner with branded , global companies who have strong management teams and significant resources . vspc is partnering with major , well - known market leaders who have management , resources and global branding . partners are attracted to vspc ' s technology , and expect to gain competitive advantage by integrating patented , proprietary technology obtained from vspc . for example , in the fuel cell business , toshiba , nec , sanyo , hitachi and samsung have unveiled prototype fuel cell powered products that more than double the operating time over existing battery technology . these companies are potential strategic partners for vspc . to better work with japanese manufacturers , vspc has opened a tokyo office . "" fabless "" business model enables cost - effective growth fabless semiconductor chip companies design and develop proprietary chips , then outsource manufacturing to wafer plants in the far east . some well - known fabless semiconductor companies , ranked by market capitalization , include $ 12 billion market cap , broadcom ( brcm ) press here to view $ 11 billion market cap , marvell semiconductor ( mrvl ) press here to view $ 9 billion market cap , xilinx ( xlnx ) press here to view $ 7 . 3 billion market cap , altera ( altr ) press here to view $ 4 . 5 billion market cap , nvidia corp ( nvda ) press here to view $ 4 . 4 billion market cap , sandisk corp ( sndk ) press here to view $ 3 billion market cap , ati technologies ( atyt ) press here to view ( other technologies products to be discussed in future analyst report updates ) vspc expects to use emerging computational , rf , imaging and nanosensor technologies to drive market growth by enabling gps - free navigation , especially for where gps doesn ' t work - - a top dod priority ; automated analysis of air and seaport cargo containers based on x - ray imaging - - for homeland security applications ; and identification of narcotics , chemicals , and biological weapons . when appropriate we will also provide updates on projects currently under review , which include a water purification technology and interactive radio . management chief executive officer : dr . carl kukkonen , ceo and founding partner . prior to founding viaspace technologies llc , dr . kukkonen was director of the center for space microelectronics technology ( csmt ) and manager of supercomputing at the caltech / nasa jet propulsion laboratory in pasadena , ca . at jpl , dr . kukkonen managed several technologies and technical teams , including the technical foundation of viaspace ' s operating subsidiaries . among his major accomplishments , dr . kukkonen built the center for space microelectronics into a 250 man operation with a $ 70 m annual budget from nothing over the course of his 14 -

"Subject: industry giants can ' t match this opportunity another ground breaking news alert from rlyc . the potential stored - value debit card market in the united states alone is approximately 150 million people , of which only about 12 million now maintain active stored - value debit card accounts . one company is quickly entering a $ 2 trillion market space with a proposed portfolio of product and service offerings that even the largest multi - national corporations in its industry may have a hard time matching . in just a few months , this company has begun adding and developing innovative new products and targeting acquisitions that could help it reach millions of new long - term customers that could generate tremendous re - occurring revenues for many years to come . although you have probably never heard of this company , you may soon hear of it even if you don ' t continue reading this message . that ' s because it is making a major push to put its products in the hands of a half million people in the u . s . within the next year . an upstart company to make a real impact in a two trillion dollar industry in reality , this company ' s lack of early recognition could be a major plus for you . since the overwhelming majority of investors and institutions don ' t know this company or what they plan to accomplish , their stock is trading at rock bottom prices . but , if they do accomplish even a small part of what they have set out to do over the coming months and years , this company could become a significant player in its trillion dollar industry and its stock reflect its accomplishments . the company that we ' ll introduce you to today is ( relay capital corp . pink sheets : rlyc ) . rlyc , which recently went public , is a multi - faceted financial services company that focuses primarily on the stored value card market . rlyc ' s present product and service offerings include pre - paid stored - value cards , reward cards , employee payroll cards , gift , retail and affinity group cards , travel cards and funds transfer cards . these services are aimed at a significant market both domestically and internationally . just because a company is in a large and growing industry doesn ' t necessarily ensure that it will be a winner . in order to be successful , that company also needs to be truly innovative , have very strong partners , be able to reach vast customer bases and have a management team capable of putting it all together and turning its goals into reality . rlyc appears to be that company . below we ' ll discuss this substantial potential market rlyc is after and what sets rlyc apart from the competition . the potential stored - value debit card market in the united states alone is approximately 150 million people , of which only about 12 million now maintain active stored - value debit card accounts . stored - value cards have the potential to help the 50 million adults and their families who have been excluded from the e - commerce revolution because they do not have access to credit or banking facilities . the implications reverberate across industry segments . estimates suggest stored - value transactions could exceed $ 2 trillion in just a few years . rlyc ' s focus is on providing stored - value cards to the un - banked and under - banked . these terms refer to consumers that that do not have a bank account , debit card . the size of that group is staggering that ' s about one - third of the nation ' s work force ! rlyc capitalizes on the dilemma these consumers face by providing stored - value card programs that make it easy , fast and secure for people and businesses to buy all manners of goods and services using stored - value cards as well as for the un - banked and under - banked to be paid their salaries via the same cards . but that ' s not all . the benefits relay will offer on its stored value cards as well as other financial services will also be of great benefit to those who already have banking relationships . in this segment , relay plans to offer more services with greater convenience for less cost to the consumer . who wouldn ' t want that ? the payroll market is another enormous market for rlyc for the under - and un - banked , collecting their pay , cashing payroll checks and then paying bills with those funds can be extremely complicated and time consuming . rlyc ' s stored - value pay transfer card program presents a very effective and innovative solution for this problem . rlyc ' s pay transfer card program can lower costs to employers to process payroll for the banked and the un - banked alike ! lower costs to cardholders to potentially transfer cash between u . s . cards , cards in foreign countries , and services bought through the cards , improved employee retention , improved customer retention will all be available thanks to rlyc . various programs will make life much easier for cardholders using the system , while also providing the convenience and flexibility of either visa or mastercard purchasing power or 24 hour access to their money through atms . rlyc signs loi with national staffing company to use its pay transfer cards earlier this year , rlyc signed a binding letter of intent to provide a pay transfer card program for asgard global resources llc ( click to go to their site ) , a leader in providing technical , craft and administrative staffing services to businesses , industry and government through locations in houston , dallas , long island , orlando , phoenix and southern california all areas with huge un - and under - banked populations . the potential market for this service is really big . it includes large employers , companies that process payroll and financial institutions that provide banking and payroll services to commercial customers . this system will simplify payments to widely dispersed employees and contractors while dramatically decreasing payroll distribution by offering a cost effective alternative to printing , cutting , and mailing paper payroll checks . it also helps to reduce a great deal of paper processing of checks and pay , eliminate lost checks , stop payments and minimize fraud . but best of all , this should help to significantly boost rlyc ' s revenues . $ 150 billion sent worldwide by relatives to home countries mexicans in u . s . send $ 16 . 3 billion a year back to mexico with $ 150 billion being transferred internationally each year , remittances are a really big business . in times past , people wanting to send money to relatives back in their home countries had few choices . many times their only choice was an expensive proposition like western union . more recently , more and more people have resorted to purchasing and mailing money orders in order to try to cut down on the cost of sending remittances . the problems with traditional money transfer methods with wire services , there are any number of inherent problems when trying to send money to relatives overseas . first , wiring funds across borders can be expensive . this can make it very cost - prohibitive to send smaller amounts of cash and often means that relatives must wait longer to receive their remittances because the sender has to save up until the amount is large enough to warrant the cost associated with the wire service . next there is the problem of logistics . both the sender and the recipient must be able to easily reach a storefront that offers the same wire company ' s services . even if they both are able to do this , the recipient may have to make multiple trips to the wire service office to check to see if their funds have cleared yet and can be released to them . lastly , the sender and the recipient are subjected to varying service fees depending on which wire service they choose . these fees can be very high and can significantly cut into the amount of money the recipient ultimately receives . so , even though using a wire service may be a fairly fast way to transfer money , it can be very expensive and logistically difficult to use . with money orders there is always the problem of mail service . although in america we have grown accustomed to relatively quick and reliable mail service , this is not always the case in foreign countries . this is especially true in underdeveloped nations , where most remittances are sent . a letter containing a remittance that a family is depending on to provide much needed food and shelter could take many days or even weeks to arrive . and , there is always the chance that it will never arrive at its destination at all , meaning that the sender ' s family could go hungry or end up on the streets . what is the best way to send remittances ? by far the most convenient , fast , safe and ultimately cost efficient method to send remittances is through a stored - value card . with this type of service , a person can easily activate a card and then just deposit funds into the account ( onto the card ) via loading station , telephone or the internet for easy use by relatives in his or her home country . the process is extremely easy and cost - effective . funds can be added to the card ' s account at an ever increasing number of convenient locations . the family member overseas can then draw down on those funds by presenting a card from that account to make purchases or they can use the card to withdraw cash from atms . it could not be any simpler . rlyc has already begun filling orders in june of this year , rlyc announced that it had received its first order for 2 , 000 pin - based stored value cards . the company stated that its growth estimates call for approximately 2 , 000 new stored - value cards being put into circulation each month . this could result in exponential revenue growth as new customers are added and its customers take advantage of its other financial services . moreover , though other programs it is working on , it could have one half million cards in the market within the next 18 months . rlyc plans to expand its services through partner companies and one - stop financial centers rlyc expects to fuel exponential growth of recurring revenue from individual card usage , monthly fees , as well as other activities occurring at its loading centers or the virtual financial centers it is planning . loading centers are retail locations , such as convenience stores , check cashing facilities or other types of retail facilities serving to dispense or receive cash facilitating transactions for the debit card consumer . rlyc has already established strategic relationships with leading card processors , vendors and distributors , and is in program development with key partners that may bring over 100 , 000 retail locations and a host of great opportunities to dramatically increase its brand recognition . rlyc plans a host of new financial products and service offerings some of the products and services rlyc plans to be launching in the coming months include commercial , auto and sba loans , mortgages , all types of affinity group ( loyalty / rewards ) cards , pharmacy discount cards , certificates of deposit ( cd ' s ) , health savings accounts and health and life insurance . rylc is expanding extremely rapidly and at this pace , should gain a whole lot of exposure to the investment community f - a - s - t ! ! ! rlyc plans to grow through joint ventures and acquisitions through a well - planned strategy to partner with major players in the financial services industry and through key acquisitions of complimentary companies , rlyc plans to fuel its growth . it has begun identifying and will negotiate business joint ventures , acquisitions and partnerships within the stored value card industry . rlyc is positioned to offer expanded payroll products as well as define a niche market for its private label stored value solutions . with corporate network ' s assistance , it expects to add new and expansive products linked to its card platform and provide its customers with a growing range of superior products and increased customer loyalty . rlyc plans to enter the emerging high growth health savings account ( hsa ) market rlyc has entered into an agreement in principle with mydaily corp . , an employee benefit and financial services company , to provide health saving account ( hsa ) stored value debit cards that will enable employees to easily pay routine medical bills with pre - tax dollars . health savings accounts ( hsa ) are tax - sheltered savings accounts similar to an ira , but earmarked for medical expenses and are part of a high deductible insurance plan . deposits are 100 % tax - deductible for the self - employed and for employees of companies that offer an hsa . this could be an enormous new market for rlyc it is estimated that all millions of non - elderly americans will soon have access to a health savings account , creating a market of unprecedented potential . in fact , due to the rising costs of employer - sponsored health plans , it is also estimated that one in every two major employers in the united states is considering consumer directed health plans and hsa for their employees . experienced stored value card and financial services industry executive named ceo of relay capital corp . e . reese bogle iii , experienced financial services and stored value card industry executive , has been named relay ' s . most recently he was one of the founders , and served as executive vice president and chief operating officer of interstate net bank ( www . isnbank . com ) , establishing it as a visa principal member . prior to this , mr . bogle , was vp of e * trade bank ' s corporate development and strategic alliances group and president of telebanc insurance services , inc . he also served as vp and marketing director of premium bank , and held a variety of managerial and marketing positions at leading financial services companies . relay will be adding real depth experience to its management team the next step is to bring a well qualified management team to relay capital said mr . bogle . once the team is onboard , we intend to build relay capital into a diversified financial services provider that , in addition to looking for exponential growth of recurring revenue generated from individual stored card usage , as well as other financial service activities occurring at our card loading centers or its virtual financial centers , we potentially plan to provide : commercial loans , auto loans , sba loans , mortgages , certificates of deposit ( cd ' s ) , health benefits ( dental , vision ) , life insurance benefits , pharmacy drug discounts , loyalty and reward programs , and shopping discount programs . with innovative products and services targeted to trillion dollar market ; a host of powerful partners ; key acquisitions in the works ; orders already coming in ; and a top - notch management team to bring it all together , rlyc seems to be headed for sunny skies . this company will not remain below the radar screens of wall street ' s mover shakers or even the average investor for much longer . . . if you are on the lookout for companies that have what it takes to experience rapid growth , but are still trading at rock bottom prices , you should call your financial advisor today about relay capital corp .

just 90 days after following my systems , pat watson was $ 20 , 000 wealthier ! listen , you ' ve heard all the get rich now claims and you ' re sick of seeing them ! the fact is most of those people who claim to know how you can make money haven ' t made much money themselves let alone taught others how to do it ! the difference between them and me is that i ' ve proven my strategies time and time again in the national limelight and my systems truly work in fact , i ' ve been dubbed america ' s # 1 millionaire maker . right now , america and i need you for my upcoming nationwide tour to share your story of upcoming success and wealth to those who need hope - all across america . let me tell you about a few of my "" money challenges "" . . . this is where i put my money where my mouth is : i was also challenged by the los angeles times : you might remember when the los angeles times challenged me to buy real estate with nothing down . with a reporter by my side , $ 100 for living expenses , and armed only with my knowledge ; i purchased 7 properties worth $ 772 , 000 , all in 57 hours . i told the mayor of st louis missouri ( the show me state ) : send me to any unemployment line . let me select someone who is broke , out of work , discouraged . let me teach him in two days time the secrets of wealth , and in 90 days he ' ll be back on his feet , with $ 5 , 000 cash in the bank , never to set foot in an employment line again . i selected a young couple from the unemployment lines of st . louis , missouri . ninety days later they earned $ 5 , 000 using one of my techniques , and . . . . within 12 months they had earned over $ 100 k ! my proudest moments are when i coach starving millionaires ( people who should be millionaires but aren ' t ) on wealth building strategies and see them achieve extraordinary results , again and again ! i ' ve done these same challenges in other major cities - washington , d . c . , miami , boston , san diego , and new york - all with similar results ! this brings me to my next challenge in which i took all of the hype out of the high - powered profit potential of the internet , and decided to make it a reality for my students . i said : sit me at any key board of any computer in the world with internet access , and i will in 24 hours , earn at least $ 24 , 000 cash ! i got myself into the life or death mindset and i went to work i started my internet challenge at exactly at 12 : 38 pm in front of live television , i held my breath , and turned my system on and signed on to the internet in 6 hours and 11 minutes i had generated $ 46 , 684 . 95 then i went to sleep . . . and when i woke up the next morning and checked the computer - ( with cameras rolling ) : the total was now $ 78 , 827 . 44 this was exciting because i knew i still had four hours left ! that afternoon , 24 hours after the challenge had begun . . . the total had grown to $ 94 , 532 . 44 in a mere 24 hours ! why do i tell you all of this ?

( gtts ) has translated its games into chinese and is about to hit asia . this initiative looks like a wise business decision : many analysis anticipate that china will be the biggest source of online gambling revenue by 2007 , so the company could be poised for massive expansion in terms of both profits and global reach . what does all this tell us ? a brand new company , a popular , well - known game , one of the biggest spreads for the house , a growing market , experienced management , and a stock price that is trading under a dollar it adds up to the potential for huge gains for early investors . if youre interested in more information on the market and gaming transactions inc . , click here to read a free ten - page report . . . to join market movers mailings http : / / ggtsstock . com to find out more . first source data inc . 4535 west sahara ave # 217 las vegas nevada 89102 disclosure and disclaimer investment news indepth reports ( hereinafter inir ) , operated by first source data , inc .

"Subject: a better investment than the stock market . all our mailings are sent complying to the proposed h . r . 3113 unsolicited commercial electronic mail act of 2000 . please see the bottom of this message for further information and removal instructions . parents of 15 - year old - find $ 71 , 000 cash hidden in his closet ! does this headline look familiar ? of course it does . you most likely have just seen this story recently featured on a major nightly news program ( usa ) . and reported elsewhere in the world ( including my neck of the woods - new zealand ) . his mother was cleaning and putting laundry away when she came across a large brown paper bag that was suspiciously buried beneath some clothes and a skateboard in the back of her 15 - year - old sons closet . nothing could have prepared her for the shock she got when she opened the bag and found it was full of cash . five - dollar bills , twenties , fifties and hundreds - all neatly rubber - banded in labelled piles . "" my first thought was that he had robbed a bank "" , says the 41 - year - old woman , "" there was over $ 71 , 000 dollars in that bag - - that ' s more than my husband earns in a year "" . the woman immediately called her husband at the car - dealership where he worked to tell him what she had discovered . he came home right away and they drove together to the boys school and picked him up . little did they suspect that where the money came from was more shocking than actually finding it in the closet . as it turns out , the boy had been sending out , via e - mail , a type of "" report "" to e - mail addresses that he obtained off the internet . everyday after school for the past 2 months , he had been doing this right on his computer in his bedroom . "" i just got the e - mail one day and i figured what the heck , i put my name on it like the instructions said and i started sending it out "" , says the clever 15 - year - old . the e - mail letter listed 5 addresses and contained instructions to send one $ 5 dollar bill to each person on the list , then delete the address at the top and move the others addresses down , and finally to add your name to the top of the list . the letter goes on to state that you would receive several thousand dollars in five - dollar bills within 2 weeks if you sent out the letter with your name at the top of the 5 - address list . "" i get junk e - mail all the time , and really did not think it was going to work "" , the boy continues . within the first few days of sending out the e - mail , the post office box that his parents had gotten him for his video - game magazine subscriptions began to fill up with not magazines , but envelopes containing $ 5 bills . "" about a week later i rode [ my bike ] down to the post office and my box had 1 magazine and about 300 envelops stuffed in it . there was also a yellow slip that said i had to go up to the [ post office ] counter . i thought i was in trouble or something ( laughs ) "" . he goes on , "" i went up to the counter and they had a whole box of more mail for me . i had to ride back home and empty out my backpack because i could not carry it all "" . over the next few weeks , the boy continued sending out the e - mail . "" the money just kept coming in and i just kept sorting it and stashing it in the closet , barely had time for my homework "" . he had also been riding his bike to several of the banks in his area and exchanging the $ 5 bills for twenties , fifties and hundreds . "" i didn ' t want the banks to get suspicious so i kept riding to different banks with like five thousand at a time in my backpack . i would usually tell the lady at the bank counter that my dad had sent me in to exchange the money ] and he was outside waiting for me . one time the lady gave me a really strange look and told me that she would not be able to do it for me and my dad would have to come in and do it , but i just rode to the next bank down the street ( laughs ) . "" surprisingly , the boy did not have any reason to be afraid . the reporting news team examined and investigated the so - called "" chain - letter "" the boy was sending out and found that it was not a chain - letter at all . in fact , it was completely legal according to us postal and lottery laws , title 18 , section 1302 and 1341 , or title 18 , section 3005 in the us code , also in the code of federal regulations , volume 16 , sections 255 and 436 , which state a product or service must be exchanged for money received . every five - dollar bill that he received contained a little note that read , "" please send me report number xyx "" . this simple note made the letter legal because he was exchanging a service ( a report on how - to ) for a five - dollar fee . [ this is the end of the media release . if you would like to understand how the system works and get your $ 71 , 000 - please continue reading . what appears below is what the 15 year old was sending out on the net - you can use it too - just follow the simple instructions ] . be financially free like others within a year ! ! ! before you say "" bull "" , please read the following . this is the letter you have been hearing about on the news lately . due to the popularity of this letter on the internet , a national weekly news program recently devoted an entire show to the investigation of this program described below , to see if it really can make people money . the show also investigated whether or not the program was legal . their findings proved once and for all that there are "" absolutely no laws prohibiting the participation in the program and if people can follow the simple instructions , they are bound to make some megabucks with only $ 25 out of pocket cost "" . due to the recent increase of popularity & respect this program has attained , it is currently working better than ever . note * follow the directons below , i had best results the second time when i hired a bulk email service in addition to following the reports instructions . in order for all of us to be successful , many , many emails must be sent so that the returns are many . i have been extremely successful using the following company . they send out the offers , and all i do is accept money for reports , then i send back to the people as soon as possible . this is what one had to say : "" thanks to this profitable opportunity . i was approached many times before but each time i passed on it . i am so glad i finally joined just to see what one could expect in return for the minimal effort and money required . to my astonishment , i received total $ 610 , 470 . 00 in 21 weeks , with money still coming in "" . pam hedland , fort lee , new jersey . here is another testimonial : "" this program has been around for a long time but i never believed in it . but one day when i received this again in the mail i decided to gamble my $ 25 on it . i followed the simple instructions and walaa . . . . . 3 weeks later the money started to come in . first month i only made $ 240 . 00 but the next 2 months after that i made a total of $ 290 , 000 . 00 . so far , in the past 8 months by re - entering the program , i have made over $ 710 , 000 . 00 and i am playing it again . the key to success in this program is to follow the simple steps and not change anything .

"Subject: wall street ' s dirty little secret . . . it was the spring of 1979 . i was just a tall , goofy looking kid in middle school with buck - teeth and freckles . each day in the cafeteria , i walked from table to table . . . stealing other kids ' lunch money . no , i didn ' t rob them with a gun or a knife - i just made them a little deal . "" let me borrow two dollars today , "" i said , "" and i ' ll bring you five dollars next week . "" the investment was too good to pass up , and other kids were throwing their lunch money at me like gravy on mashed potatoes . of course when "" next week "" rolled around and i couldn ' t pony up the cash , i promised to pay them even more the week after that , if they would just let me keep their investment a little bit longer . eventually the end of the year came and went , high school started and with it came girls , and homework , and parties , and sports , and those poor kids from eighth grade had more things on their mind than last year ' s lunch money . i made off with a tidy sum for a middle school kid , and i didn ' t even get beat up . hidden inside this story are the two greatest stock market secrets you will ever learn . first of all , greed is your number one enemy . you ' re not going to turn $ 2 into $ 5 in a week , so cash out when you ' re ahead . don ' t wait for the boat to sink before grabbing the lifejacket . second , never trust an investment adviser of any kind . they are looking out for their own money , not yours . the "" professionals "" , those stuffy investment counselors and money managers , will always tell you that the best time to buy is now . according to those guys , the longer you keep your money in the market , the more money you ' re going to make . ask them when is the best time to sell and their answer is "" never "" . in a sense , they are right . if you put $ 250 , 000 in an index fund right now , you ' ll probably have over a million dollars in thirty or forty years . but here ' s the problem : do you want to wait thirty or forty years to be rich ? hell no ! you want the money now - so you can enjoy it . it ' s hard to make use of your fortune when you ' re seventy years old in a wheelchair . if you could make a million dollars in the next few years , what would you do with it ? where would you travel ? what kind of car would you buy ? the fact is . . . youth is the best time to be rich . if your goal is to make quick profits in the market , volatility is your ally , and stability your enemy . you want to see those large upswings , two hundred points in a day , followed by the four hundred point crash a week later . you don ' t care if the market went up or down 20 % this year as long it was unstable . that ' s how you ' re going to make the money . what i ' m talking about here is day trading . my father invests the traditional way ; he holds some good stocks and he goes up 30 k and down 30 k . in the long term of 5 - 10 years he makes money . the day trader buys or sells 5 , 000 shares of xyz for a $ 25 , 000 profit in a 5 - 10 minute trade . he acts quickly , taking advantage of all the information at his disposal about a certain stock , and estimating whether it will go up or down within hours , sometimes within minutes . i can teach you how to do this - and how to make amazing amounts of money at it . it ' s not rocket science , and you only need to learn a few basic principles to get started . society would have you believe that successful trading is complicated and requires formal training . the truth is , wealthy people use very simple investment strategies to make money . popular media and investment professionals portray successful trading as difficult and complex to scare you out of the boxing ring . they don ' t want the competetion - and they sure as hell don ' t want you paying a few dollars to an online trading firm to execute a trade for which they ' d charge you forty or fifty dollars . they make their money only if you believe two lies : 1 ) that investing is too difficult and risky for the average person . 2 ) that using an investment adviser who charges a high commission is safer than trading online for a few bucks per trade . here is what the financial gurus in today ' s society absolutely , positively do not want you to know . . . the strategies for profitable day trading are in fact so simple that anyone can do it - provided they spend a few hours of studying . after reading over 200 financial books and publications during the past decade , and after using day trading to successfully make more than four million dollars in the stock market , i ' ve learned the following lessons : * * achieving financial success is incredibly simple . * * anyone can do it . * * it only takes a few hours to learn . when i discovered the secret to day trading , i didn ' t become wealthy overnight . if you want instant cash , drive to wal - mart . buy a ski mask and a shotgun , and rob your local bank . the only way to get rich , quick or otherwise , is through hard work , knowledge , and determination . after learning the fundamentals of day trading , i started practicing the trading art itself , and the first few weeks brought modest gains . the next few months gave me the practical experience i needed to really earn a living , and i was pulling close to a six figure income . in less than three years with no formal financial training , minimal effort and only moderate risk , i had made my first million . the knowledge that i gained during those formative trading years i am willing to share with you in my new book , the master trader . you will learn from my mistakes , and from my successes , as i teach you the simple , secret formula for day trading that i ' ve used profitably year after year . the income of the day trader can be staggering . thousands , even hundreds of thousands of dollars can be made or lost within minutes . the difference between making money and losing your shirt is simply this : knowledge . i will provide that knowledge , and i will give you a winning edge at this high - stakes game . average income of a day trader : 5 % average an income in excess of $ 500 , 000 per year 22 % average an income in excess of $ 250 , 000 per year 35 % average an income in excess of $ 100 , 000 per year . 27 % average an income between $ 50 , 000 and $ 99 , 999 per year 11 % average an income between $ 20 , 000 and $ 49 , 999 per year after reading the master trader , you will discover extremely profitable , simple yet powerful trading methods that give you an almost unfair trading advantage and make you win despite the current market weakness . here is just a snippet of what i will teach you : * * * make money whether a stock goes up or down . * * * learn how to get in and out of stocks within split seconds . * * * learn exactly what stocks to trade , the exact price to buy them and the exact price to sell them . * * * save thousands of dollars by learning to avoid the mistakes beginners make . * * * learn how to trade stocks like a pro and how to make money consistently in every market ! * * * learn proven strategies that give you the highest chance for great success . * * * profit on huge intraday price swings . * * * make money on the biggest news stories . * * * actively manage your risks and learn how to realize maximum returns . * * * learn how to use the tools and information wall street professionals use . * * * learn how to develop and maintain a winning state of mind . it ' s time to ask yourself : "" am i going to listen to the professionals who say buy buy buy but never sell ? or am i going to take control of my own financial future , and start making money right now in the stock market ? "" who is looking out for your best economic interests - some wealthy wall street stockbroker , or yourself ? with the master trader e - book , you will learn everything you need to know in order to get started with day trading . . . from choosing the best broker in order to take advantage of the lowest commissions and instant order executions to professional trading strategies that make professional traders millions of dollars . the master trader e - book is the most comprehensive yet easy to understand and straight - forward book ever written about active trading . if you are serious about success in short term stock trading - order today and start paving the road to your own financial future . oh , and remember that scraggly kid in the eighth grade ? his high school friends laughed when he said he was going to make money in the stock market . six years later , he bought a beach - front home on the california coast - with cash . oops , they weren ' t laughing anymore . in a rollercoaster market like we have today , day trading is the fastest track to wealth . if you ' re looking for a long - term retirement investment with no risk that goes up 5 % a year , then by all means , this ain ' t your kind of game . but if you want the quickest possible way to make a fortune in the market , with the lowest element of risk , then order the master trader e - book right now . i promise to teach you all of the secrets that helped me become a millionaire through successful day trading . you don ' t need to know anything about the market , and anyone can do it , with minimum effort . it ' s an easy game to win if you know how the pieces move . order the master trader e - book right now for only $ 49 . 97 by clicking on the link below : http : / / 4 tools 4 life . com / qs our company is strictly opposed to unsolicited emails . to be removed from this list , please send an email to "" bulkexpert @ yahoo . com "" ",1

"" as seen on national television "" "" making over a half million dollars every 6 months from your home for an investment of only $ 25 us dollars expense one time . thanks to the computer age and the internet , be a millionaire like others within a year ! ! ! before you say , "" no way ! "" read the following . this is the letter you ' ve been reading about in the news lately . due to the popularity of this letter on the internet , a major nightly news program recently devoted an entire show to the investigation of the program described below to see if it really can make people money . the show also investigated whether or not the program was legal . their findings proved once and for all that there are absolutely no laws prohibiting the participation in this program . this has helped to show people that this is a simple , harmless , and fun way to make some extra money at home . and , besides even if you never got involved in the program , the reports themselves are well worth the money . they can help you start and advertise any business on the internet . that is , these reports stand alone and are beneficial to anyone wishing to do business on the internet . the results of this show have been truly remarkable . so many people are participating that those involved are doing much better than ever before . since everyone makes more as more people try it out , its been very exciting to be a part of it lately . you will understand once you experience it . "" here it is below "" * * * print this now for future reference * * * the following income opportunity is one you may be interested in taking a look at . it can be started with very little investment ( $ 25 ) and the income return is tremendous ! ! ! this is a legitimate , legal , money making opportunity . it does not require you to come into contact with people , do any hard work , and best of all , you never have to leave your house except to get the mail . simply follow the instructions , and you really can make this happen . this e - mail order marketing program works every time if you put in the effort to make it work . e - mail is the sales tool of the future . take advantage of this non - commercialized method of advertising now ! the longer you wait , the more savvy people will be taking your business using e - mail . get what is rightfully yours . program yourself for success and dare to think big . it sounds corny , but it ' s true . you ' ll never make it big if you don ' t have this belief system in place . multi - level marketing ( mlm ) has finally gained respectability . it is being taught in the harvard business school , and both stanford research and the wall street journal have stated that between 50 % and 65 % of all goods and services will be sold through multi - level methods . this is a multi - billion dollar industry and of the 500 , 000 millionaires in the u . s . , 20 % ( 100 , 000 ) made their fortune in the last several years in mlm . moreover , statistics show 45 people become millionaires everyday through multi - level marketing . you may have heard this story before , but donald trump made an appearance on the david letterman show . dave asked him what he would do if he lost everything and had to start over from scratch . without hesitating trump said he would find a good network marketing company and get to work . the audience , started to hoot and boo him . he looked out at the audience and dead - panned his response . "" that ' s why i ' m sitting up here and you are all sitting out there ! "" with network marketing you have two sources of income . direct commissions from sales you make yourself and commissions from sales made by people you introduce to the business . residual income is the secret of the wealthy . it means investing time and money once , and getting paid again and again and again . in network marketing , it also means getting paid for the work of others . the enclosed information is something i almost let slip through my fingers . fortunately , sometime later i reread everything and gave some thought and study to it . my name is jonathan rourke . two years ago , the corporation i worked at for the past twelve years down - sized and my position was eliminated . after unproductive job interviews , i decided to open my own business . over the past year , i incurred many unforeseen financial problems . i owed my family , friends and creditors over $ 35 , 000 . the economy was taking a toll on my business and i just couldn ' t seem to make ends meet . i had to refinance and borrow against my home to support my family and struggling business . at that moment something significant happened in my life and i am writing to share that experience in hopes that this will change your life forever financially ! ! ! in mid december , i received this program via e - mail . six month ' s prior to receiving this program , i had been sending away for information on various business opportunities . all of the programs i received , in my opinion were not cost effective . they were either too difficult for me to comprehend or the initial investment was too much for me to risk to see if they would work or not . one claimed that i would make a million dollars in one year . it didn ' t tell me i ' d have to write a book to make it ! but like i was saying , in december i received this program . i didn ' t send for it , or ask for it ; they just got my name off a mailing list . thank goodness for that ! ! ! after reading it several times , to make sure i was reading it correctly , i couldn ' t believe my eyes . here was a money making phenomenon . i could invest as much as i wanted to start without putting me further into debt . after i got a pencil and paper and figured it out , i would at least get my money back . but like most of you i was still a little skeptical and a little worried about the legal aspects of it all . so i checked it out with the u . s . post office ( 1 - 800 - 725 - 2161 24 hrs ) and they confirmed that it is indeed legal ! after determining the program was legal and not a chain letter , i decided "" why not . "" initially i sent out 10 , 000 e - mails . it cost me about $ 15 for my time on - line . the great thing about e - mail is that i don ' t need any money for printing to send out the program , and because all of my orders are filled via e - mail , the only expense is my time . i am telling you like it is . i hope it doesn ' t turn you off , but i promised myself that i would not ' rip - off "" anyone , no matter how much money it cost me . here is the basic version of what you need to do : your first goal is to receive at least 20 orders for report # 1 within 2 weeks of your first program going out . if you don ' t , send out more programs until you do . your second goal is to receive at least 150 + orders for report # 2 within 4 weeks . if not , send out more programs until you do . once you have your 150 orders , relax , you ' ve met your goal . you will make $ 50 , 000 + but keep at it ! if you don ' t get 150 right off , keep at it ! it may take some time for your down line to build . keep at it , stay focused , and do not let yourself get distracted . in less than one week , i was starting to receive orders for report # 1 . i kept at it - kept mailing out the program and by january 13 , 1 had received 26 orders for report # 1 . my first step in making $ 50 , 000 in 90 days was done . by january 30 , 1 had received 196 orders for report # 2 ; 46 more than i needed . so i sat back and relaxed . by march 1 , of my e - mailing of 10 , 000 , i received $ 58 , 000 with more coming in every day . i paid off all my debts and bought a much needed new car . please take time to read the attached program , it will change your life forever ! ! remember , it won ' t work if you don ' t try it . this program does work , but you must follow it exactly ! especially the rules of not trying to place your name in a different place . it won ' t work , you ' ll lose out on a lot of money ! in order for this program to work very fast , try to meet your goal of 20 + orders for report # 1 , and 150 + orders for report # 2 and you will make $ 50 , 000 or more in 90 days . if you don ' t reach the first two goals with in four weeks , relax , you will still make a ton of money , it may take a few months or so longer . but keep mailing out the programs and stay focused ! that ' s the key . i am living proof that it works ! ! ! if you choose not to participate in this program , i am sorry . it really is a great opportunity with little cost or risk to you . if you choose to participate , follow the program and you will be on your way to financial security . if you are a fellow business owner and are in financial trouble like i was , or you want to start your own business , consider this a sign . i did ! - sincerely , jonathan rourke p . s . do you have any idea what 11 , 700 $ 5 bills ( $ 58 , 000 ) look like piled up on a kitchen table ? it ' s awesome ! a personal note from the originator of this program : by the time you have read the enclosed program and reports , you should have concluded that such a program , and one that is legal , could not have been created by an amateur . let me tell you a little about myself . i had a profitable business for 10 years . then in 1979 my business began falling off . i was doing the same things that were previously successful for me , but it wasn ' t working . finally , i figured it out . it wasn ' t me ; it was the economy . inflation and recession had replaced the stable economy that had been with us since 1945 . i don ' t have to tell you what happened to the unemployment rate . . . because many of you know from first hand experience . there were more failures and bankruptcies than ever before . the middle class was vanishing . those who knew what they were doing invested wisely and moved up . those who did not including those who never had anything to save or invest were moving down into the ranks of the poor . as the saying goes , ' the rich get richer and the poor get poorer . "" the traditional methods of making money will never allow you to "" move up "" or "" get rich "" . inflation will see to that . you have just received information that can give you financial freedom for the rest of your life , with "" no risk "" and "" just a little bit of effort . "" you can make more money in the next few months than you have ever imagined . follow the program exactly as instructed . do not change it in any way . it works exceedingly well as it is now . remember to e - mail a copy of this exciting report to everyone you can think of . one of the people you send this to may send out 50 , 000 . . . and your name will be on everyone of them ! remember though , the more you send out the more potential customers you will reach . so my friend , i have given you the ideas , information , materials and opportunity to become financially independent . it is up to you now ! "" think about it . "" before you delete this program from your mailbox , as i almost did , take a little time to read it and really think about it . get a pencil and figure out what could happen when you participate . figure out the worst possible response and no matter how you calculate it , you will still make a lot of money ! you will definitely get back what you invested . any doubts you have will vanish when your first orders come in . it works ! - jody jacobs , richmond , va here ' s how this amazing program will make you thousands of dollar $ this method of raising capital really works 100 % every time . i am sure that you could use up to $ 50 , 000 or more in the next 90 days . before you say "" no way ! "" please read this program carefully . this is not a chain letter , but a perfectly legal money making opportunity . basically , this is what you do : as with all multilevel businesses , we - build our business by recruiting new partners and selling our products . every state in the usa allows you to recruit new multilevel business partners , and we offer a product for every dollar sent . your orders come by mail and are filled by e - mail , so you are not involved in personal selling . you do it privately in your own home , store , or office . this is the greatest multi - level mail order marketing anywhere : this is what you must do . 1 . order all 5 reports shown on the list below ( you can ' t sell them if you don ' t have them ) . * for each report , send $ 5 . 00 cash , the name & number of the report you are ordering , your e - mail address , and your name & return address ( in case of a problem ) . * make sure your return address is on your envelope - in case of any mail problems ! * when you place your order , make sure you order each of the five reports . you need all five reports so that you can save them on your computer and resell them . * within a few days you will receive , via e - mail , each of the five reports . save them on your computer so they will be accessible for you to send to the 1 , 000 ' s of people who will order them from you . 2 . important - do not alter the names of the people who are listed next to each report , or their order on the list in any way other than as instructed below in steps "" a "" through ' g "" or you will lose out on the majority of your profits . once you understand the way this works you ' ll also see how it doesn ' t work if you change it . remember , this method has been tested , and if you alter it , it will not work . a . look below for the listing of available reports . b . after you ' ve ordered the . five reports , take this advertisement and remove the name and address under report # 5 . this person has made it through the cycle and is no doubt counting their $ 50 , 000 ! c . move the name and address under report # 4 down to report # 5 . d . move the name and address under report # 3 down to report # 4 . e . move the name and address under report # 2 down to report # 3 f . move the name and address under report # 1 down to report # 2 . g . insert your name and address in the report # 1 position . please make sure you copy every name and address accurately ! copy and paste method works well , . 3 . take this entire letter , including the modified list of names , and save it to your computer . make no changes to the instruction portion of this letter . your cost to participate in this is practically nothing ( surely you can afford $ 25 ) . you obviously already have an internet connection and e - mail is free ! to assist you with marketing your business on the internet , the 5 reports you purchase will provide you with invaluable marketing information which includes how to send bulk e - mails , where to find thousands of free classified ads and much , much more . here are two primary methods of building your downline : method # 1 : sending bulk e - mail let ' s say that you decide to start small , just to see how it goes , and we ' ll assume you and all those involved send out only 2 , 000 programs each . let ' s also assume that the mailing receives a 0 . 5 % response . using a good list , the response could be much better . also , many people will send out hundreds of thousands of programs instead of 2 , 000 . but continuing with this example , you send out only 2 , 000 programs . with a 0 . 5 % response , that is only 10 orders for report # 1 . those 10 people respond by sending out 2 , 000 programs each for a total of 20 , 000 . out of those 0 . 5 % , 100 people respond and order report # 2 . those 100 mail out 2 , 000 programs each for a total of 200 , 000 . the 0 . 5 % response to that is 1 , 000 orders for report # 3 . those 1 , 000 send out 2 , 000 programs each for a 2 , 000 , 000 total . the 0 . 5 % response to that is i 0 , 000 orders for report # 4 . that amounts to 10 , 000 each of $ 5 bills for you in cash money ! then think about level five ! that ' s $ 500 , 000 alone ! your total income in this example is $ 50 + $ 500 + $ 5 , 000 + $ 50 , 000 + $ 500 , 000 for a total of $ 555 , 550 ! ! ! remember friend , this is assuming 1 , 990 out of the 2 , 000 people you mail to will do absolutely nothing and trash this program !

"Subject: urgent contact from the desk of : dr tom eke . e - mail : dr _ tomeke @ spinfinder . com lagos - nigeria . attn : request for urgent business relationship . it is with my profound dignity that i write you this very important and highly confidential letter . first , i must solicit your strictest confidentiality in this transaction . this is by virtue of its nature as being utterly confidential and "" top secret "" . though i know that a transaction of this magnitude will make any one apprehensive and worried , considering the fact that we have not met each other before , but i am assuring you that all will be well at the end of the day . we have decided to contact you by email due to the urgency of this transaction , as we have been reliably informed that it will take at least a minimum of two to three weeks for a normal post to reach you , so we decided it is best using the e - mail , which is quicker and also to enable us meet up with the second quater payment for the year 2000 . however , let me start by introducing myself properly to you . i am dr . tom eke , a director general in the department of petroleum resources ( d . p . r ) and i presently head the contract award panel incharge of contract awards and payment approvals . i came to know of you in my search for a reliable and reputable person to handle a very confidential business transaction which involves the transfer of a huge sum of money to a foreign account requiring maximum confidence . i and my colleagues are top officials of the federal government contract award panel . our duties include evaluation , vetting , approval for payment of contract jobs done for the d . p . r e . t . c . in order to commence this business we solicit for your assistance to enable us transfer into your account the said funds . the source of this funds is as follows : in the second quarter of 2001 this committee was mandated to review and award contracts to the tune of us $ 400 million us dollars to a group of five firms for the supply construction and installation of oil pipe lines in warri and port harcourt . during this process my colleagues and i decided and agreed among ourselves to deliberately over - inflate the total contract sum from us $ 400 million to us $ 431 million united states dollars with the main intention of sharing the remaining sum of us $ 31 miilion amongst ourselves . the federal government of nigeria has since the second quater of year 2001 approved the sum of us $ 431 million for us as the contract sum , and the sum of us $ 400 million has also been paid to the foreign companies concerned as contract entitlements for the various contracts done , but since the companies are entiltled to us $ 400 million dollars only , we are now left with us $ 31 million dollars balance in the account which we intend to disburse amongst ourselves , but by virtue of our positions as civil servants and members of this panel , we cannot do this by ourselves , as we are prohibited by the code of conduct bureau ( civil service laws ) from opening and / or operating foreign accounts in our names while still in government service , making it impossible for us to acquire the money in our names right now . i have therefore , been delegated as a matter of trust and urgency by my colleagues in the panel to look for an overseas partner into whose account we would transfer the sum of us $ 31 million . hence we are writing you this letter . my colleagues and i have agreed that if you or your company can act as the beneficiary of this funds on our behalf , you or your company will retain 20 % of the total amount ( us $ 31 million ) , while 70 % will be for us ( officials ) and the remaining 10 % will be used in offsetting all debts / expenses and taxes incurred both local and foreign in the cause of this transfer . needless to say , the trust reposed on you at this juncture is enormous . in return we demand your complete honesty and trust . you must however note that this transaction will be strictly based on the following terms and conditions as we have stated below ; a ) our conviction of your transparent honesty and diligence b ) that you would treat this transaction with utmost secrecy and confidentiality c ) that you will not ask for more share or try to sit on the funds once it is under your custody , or any form of blackmail . d ) that upon receipt of the funds you will release the funds as instructed by us after you have removed your share of 20 % from the total amount . please , note that this transaction is 100 % legal and risk free and we hope to conclude this transaction seven to fourteen bank working days from the date of receipt of the necessary requirements from you . we are looking forward to doing business with you and solicit your total confidentiality in this transaction . there is no cause for alarm . i give you my word that you are completely safe in doing business with us . transactions like this have been successfully carried out in the past by most government executives . here in my country there is great economic and political disarray and thus looting and corruption is rampant and the order of the day , thus explaining why you might have heard stories of how money is been taken out of nigeria , this is because everyone is making desperate attempts to secure his or her future , so that when we retire from active service we donot languish in poverty . i will explain more to you when i have heard from you . please acknowledge the receipt of this letter using the above e - mail address . i will bring you into the complete picture of this pending business transaction when i have heard from you and also receive your confidential telephone and fax numbers to enable me fax to you all necessary information you need to know about our pending business transaction . i will also send to you my private telephone and fax numbers where you can always reach me . your urgent response will be highly appreciated to enable us transfer the funds under the second quarter of the year 2002 . thank you and god bless . yours faithfully , dr . tom eke . n . b . please be informed that this business transaction is 100 % legal and completely free from drug money or money laundering . this is a complete legitimate business transaction . - -",1

"Subject: commercialization of nasa technology hey , i thought you might like to take a look at viaspace the cohen report viaspace was founded in 1998 as a spin - off of the caltech / nasa jet propulsion laboratory ( jpl ) to transform technologies originally developed for space and defense markets into profitable commercial enterprises . viaspace seeks opportunities in high growth markets delivering on problems with growing global relevance by leveraging unique expertise not available elsewhere in the commercial world . viaspace sees a compelling business opportunity in the homeland security public safety and fuel cell markets . viaspace target markets are in excess of $ 100 b / yr and growing with a cagr of over 20 % . in the past six years viaspace has created three companies , spectrasensors , qwip technologies and vialogy corp . their websites provide a background on the commercialization of nasa technology , ( spectrasensors . com , qwip . com , vialogy . com ) . the company ' s current focus is on three subsidiaries , direct methanol fuel cell , arroyo sciences and ionfinity . direct liquid methanol fuel cell direct methanol fuel cell corporation ( dmfcc ) will provide disposable methanol fuel cell cartridges for tomorrow ' s fuel cell - powered portable electronic devices such as laptop computers and cell phones . methanol fuel cells ( dfmc ) are expected to replace lithium ion batteries in portable electronic devices . a dfmc can power a laptop for up to 10 hours on a disposable cartridge that costs $ 2 to $ 3 . a smaller cartridge can power a cell phone for up to 3 weeks . we believe consumers will spend a few extra dollars for the convenience of keeping their cell phones and other electronic devices operating . as a disposable product , it generates recurring revenue for dmfcc . the technology is protected by over 70 issued and pending patents . toshiba , nec , sanyo , and samsung have unveiled prototype fuel cell powered products that more than double the operating time over existing battery technology . dmfcc has opened a tokyo office to work closely with japanese manufacturers . arroyo sciences , inc . arroyo focuses on the fusion of radio frequency , nuclear and electromagnetic imaging to deliver information products in transportation , supply chain , security , logistics assurance and first responder safety markets . the micro tracker product enables a wireless tracking for first responders in hazardous environments . this product combines radio frequency identification ( rfid ) tags , wireless digital communications , ground positioning satellite ( gps ) , data for 2 - d and 3 - d geolocation determination , geographic information system ( gis ) and sensor technologies . real - time processing of many high data content inputs is required for the instantaneous assessment of danger . applications include improved safety for fire department personnel in emergency situations , improved coordination of multi - agency deployments and extended operations in hazardous environments . the cobra product uses the imaging and sensing technology to provide early threat indicators for coastal surveillance and public infrastructure protection such as ports , power plants , airports , and telecommunication facilities . real time sensory and image data is processed and software is customized to discriminate between friend and foe . deepscan is a software system that provides automatic analysis of air and seaport cargo containers based on x - ray and gamma ray imaging . arroyo is currently using deepscan for bomb and hazardous material detection in cargo . ionfinity ionfinity has developed the next generation mass spectrometry ( ms ) technology that is 10 times more sensitive than existing ms , with a 10 times increase in mass range . higher sensitivity enables the comprehensive monitoring and detection of biological , chemical and nuclear contaminants . the current market for ms is estimated at $ 1 . 2 billion annually . the compact size and rugged portability will expand the market . new applications include enabling port inspection personnel to detect traces of contraband , epa air quality monitoring and assisting in hazardous material clean up . additional projects under review projects not included in our forecast are ( 1 ) a water purification technology and ( 2 ) interactive radio . the water purification system displays impressive statistics in that it can convert brackish , sewage or industrial wastewater into ultra - pure water . the water system is scalable from house to municipal usage and will last 25 years while requiring minimal maintenance . the interactive radio enables a listener to receive emails or web sites delivered in response to what is broadcast . the radio station essentially receives input from listeners that could enhance advertising and improve vertical market focus . forecasts and valuation we expect revenues for dmfcc will be driven by ( 1 ) increasing wireless usage of computing devices and ( 2 ) the existing need to extend cell phone battery life . we expect revenues for dmfcc will commence in 2007 and grow to $ 195 million by 2009 . homeland security expenditures on airport and seaport security will be a primary revenue driver for arroyo sciences , which will begin to generate revenues in 2005 , and will grow to $ 90 million in 2009 . we expect commercial revenues for ionfinity will commence in late 2007 , and will be $ 10 million in 2009 . beyond 2009 , total revenues will grow at a 60 % to 80 % rate for several years from existing and new products . contracting with existing manufacturers , we expect operating margins will be in the low 40 % range by 2009 . our initial forecasts indicate a fair value range from $ 8 . 40 to $ 11 . 10 based on the projected growth for the 2009 to 2012 timeframe . the graph below outlines our valuation analysis . directors and management dr . carl kukkonen , is the ceo and founding partner . dr kukkonen was director for space microelectronics and manager of supercomputing at caltech / jpl , where he worked for 14 years . prior to jpl , dr . kukkonen was the leading expert on hydrogen as alternative fuel at ford motor company . aj abdallat , coo , and vp of business development has been with viaspace since inception , after working in business development at hewlett - packard and control data corporation . dr . sandeep gulati has been with viaspace since 2000 . during the prior 12 years , dr gulati was head of the ultracomputing technologies at nasas jpl . dr . gulati is the developer of the revolutionary signal processing technology , qri . viaspace overview viaspace was formed in july 1998 with an objective of transforming technologies from caltech / nasa ' s jet propulsion laboratory and other advanced technology centers into profitable commercial enterprises through its strong connections with the advanced technology community . through its three subsidiaries - - arroyo sciences , ionfinity , and direct methanol fuel cell corporation ( dmfcc ) - - viaspace has a diversified high tech portfolio that includes microelectronics , sensors , homeland security public safety , energy / - fuel cells , information computational technology , rfid , e - finance , and mobile e - commerce . viaspace develops proven space and defense technologies into hardware and software products that fulfill high - growth market needs and solve today ' s complex problems . viaspace benefits from important licenses and strategic relationships with caltech / nasa ' s jet propulsion laboratory and other universities research laboratories . the viaspace team has a proven expertise for the successful commercialization of innovations in information technology , physical science and life sciences developed at academic research institutions and national laboratories . the company currently focuses on technologies originally developed for nasa and the us department of defense that have already reached a certain stage of maturity . initial investments in these technologies amount to millions of dollars and many years of rd , enabling viaspace to manage the commercialization process with only a modest additional investment and greatly reduced technical risk . viaspace couples exceptional technology sourcing and validation capability with a demand - driven process of market validation . decisions about technology transfer and product development are based , first and foremost , on market needs . in addition to our internal expertise , viaspace benefits from the domain expertise of leading experts that serve on our scientific and business advisory boards and from an informal global network of researchers , technology analysts , and technology professionals and investors that would be hard to replicate . in the last six years , viaspace and its subsidiaries have secured more than $ 30 million in venture financing and strategic investment . initial investors include hewlett packard , divine interventures , los angeles county community development commission , blueprint ventures , the united company , bioprojects international , forrest binkley brown , american river ventures , and nth power . viaspace has spawned 3 companies : spectrasensors ( www . spectrasensors . com ) , qwip technologies ( www . qwip . com ) , and vialogy corp ( www . vialogy . com ) . these companies , currently at various stages of maturity , are positioned within high growth markets and poised for profitability . today , viaspace focuses its effort on its three subsidiaries -

( gtts ) be the next stock to rock ? recently , we read an article in the economist that highlighted online gaming and how it has become a socially acceptable form of entertainment . over the next few days , as we thought about what sort of impact this trend could have , we started to notice that online gambling was being discussed all over the media - in newspapers , online and on television . it became obvious to us that more and more people were jumping on the internet to bet on games . we also came across some staggering statistics . merrill lynch , for example , has predicted that gambling has the potential to account for a full 1 % of global economic activity ! another source , ecommercetimes . com , recently reported that the scope of this business is so enormous that some have even claimed that it is the single most important factor in the growth of e - commerce . the online gaming industry , in other words , appears to be booming , and it may be an ideal time to is time to invest . we decided to find out who the key players were in the business . after speaking with a number of industry insiders , the trail led us to an emerging , publicly traded company called gaming transactions inc . ( ggts ) . after a close look at ggts , we decided that this company could produce huge returns on investment in the upcoming months . although ggts is a new company , it has some surprisingly experienced players at the helm an uncommon thing to find in an industry only ten years old . the company has come out with online versions of the addictive game keno . and its management team was smart enough to secure the rights to the keno . com website , which , if youre marketing keno , is as good as it gets . keno has the widest spread for the house of any mainstream gambling game . ggts is also about to launch a suite of other online gambling games , including poker and sports - book betting . once it offers these popular games , and given that it already has keno . com online , the company could bring in great revenues , attracting a lot of attention in the investment community and driving up its stock price . after a successful north american launch , gaming transactions inc . ( gtts ) has translated its games into chinese and is about to hit asia . this initiative looks like a wise business decision : many analysis anticipate that china will be the biggest source of online gambling revenue by 2007 , so the company could be poised for massive expansion in terms of both profits and global reach . what does all this tell us ? a brand new company , a popular , well - known game , one of the biggest spreads for the house , a growing market , experienced management , and a stock price that is trading under a dollar it adds up to the potential for huge gains for early investors . if youre interested in more information on the market and gaming transactions inc . , click here to read a free ten - page report . . . to join market movers mailings http : / / ggtsstock . com to find out more . first source data inc . 4535 west sahara ave # 217 las vegas nevada 89102 disclosure and disclaimer investment news indepth reports ( hereinafter inir ) , operated by first source data , inc .

"Subject: urgent response dear sir / madam , you may be surprised to receive this letter from me , since you don ' t know me personally . i am mrs maria da costa the wife of dr . john da costa , who was recently murdered in the land dispute in zimbabwe , i got your contact through network on line in my search for a reliable and reputable person to handle a very confidential transaction which involves a transfer of a fund to a foreign account and i decided to write you . my late husband was among the zimbabwean rich farmers murdered in cold blood by the agents of the ruling government of president robert mugabe for his alleged support and sympathy for the zimbabwean opposition party controlled by the white minority . before his death he deposited the sum of us $ 15 . 2 million ( fifteen million two hundred thousand us dollars ) to south africa with a security company as if he foresaw the looming danger in zimbabwe . the money was deposited in a din box as valuables to avoid much demurrage from the security company . this money was embarked from the purchase of new machinery and chemical for farms and establishment of new farms in lesotho and swaziland . the land problem arose when president robert mugabe introduced a new land act that wholly affected the rich white farmers and some few blacks vehemently condemned the "" modus operandi "" adopted by the government . this resulted to rampant killing and mob action by the war veterans and some political thugs , precisely ; more than fifty - one ( 51 ) people have so far been killed . heads of governments from the west , especially britain and united states of america have voiced their condemnation of mugabe ' s plan , subsequently , south african development community ( s . a . d . c . ) has continuously supported mugabe ' s new land act , it is against this background that i and my family who are currently residing in south africa have decided to transfer my husband ' s money into a foreign account . as a family , i am saddled with the responsibility of seeking a genuine foreign account , where this money could be transferred without the knowledge of my government who is tactically freezing of our family wealth . and south africa ' s government seems to be playing along with them . i am faced with the dilemma of investing this money in south africa for fear of encountering the same experience in future since both countries have almost the same political history . more so , the south african foreign exchange policy does not allow such investment hence we are seeking for an "" asylum "" . as a business person whom i would entrust my future and that of my family into his hands , i must let you know that this transaction is 100 % risk free and that the nature of your business does not necessarily matter . for your assistance , i will offering you 15 % of the total sum , 80 % for my family while 5 % will be mapped out for any expenses we may incur during the course of this transaction . i wish to invest our part of the money on commercial property based on your advice . finally , all i demand from you is assurance that you will not do away with this money when it finally gets to your personal or company ' s account in your country . if this proposal is acceptable by you , please confirm your interest by contacting us on this phone number + 27724263169 or e - mail address mariadacosta _ 2002 @ yahoo . com best regards , mrs maria da costa ( for the family )",1

"Subject: 75 % reduction in road accidents august , 2002 dear sir / madam , in case you have received this mail earlier , kindly ignore this mail . it may have been re - sent to you by mistake . ours is not a mailing list and we have no intention of sending any regular mails to anybody . we have devised a set of systems , which can reduce the damage caused to vehicles and deaths and injury caused to passengers and pedestrians in vehicular accidents by more than seventy - five percent we have already filed and are in process of filing further , multiple and appropriate disclosure documents , provisional patent applications at the united states patent & trademarks office ( uspto ) , and also applications under the patent co - operation treaty at world intellectual property organization ( wipo ) at geneva . there is absolutely no doubt that our idea is new and innovative . moreover , we are very confident and very sure that this will help reducing / minimizing human suffering to a very large extent . there is no doubt that the product devised by us will change the face of the earth forever . brief details relating to our product are detailed in the annexures under the following headings : statistics advantages options economics we are looking for the followings : 01 . business consultancy and advice regarding the most viable , practical and profitable course of action under the circumstances and also consultancy on patents one person moderately injured every three seconds ; one person mildly injured every three seconds . ) ( c ) current yearly automobile sales worldwide - more than 1000 billion us $ . ( d ) number of automobiles worldwide - more than 1000 billion pieces ( e ) daily loss caused due to vehicular accidents worldwide more than 2 billion us $ per day . ( 2 % of the worldwide gross national product of more than 36500 billion us $ = more than 730 us $ per year = more than 2 billion us $ per day ) theadvantages of the technology developed by us : a . the introduction of such technology will dramatically reduce the expenses of auto - insurance . this reduction of insurance cost will be at par with or even more that the expenses incurred towards the introduction of such technology in modern day vehicles . accordingly , the life insurance premier will also undergo drastic reduction . additionally , because of saving of lives , the outgo of the insurance companies will reduce substantially . b . as per the who studies and projections , road accidents occupy the number nine positions by way of causes of death in the world today . it is projected by who that by the year 2020 they will occupy the number three positions , next only to heart disease and depression . by introduction of this technology , we are sure that this will not happen . on the contrary there will be massive reduction in the number of deaths due to road accidents and road accidents may not figure on the list of major causes of death , in the year 2020 at all . c . this technology will therefore , make all vehicles cheaper and safer . not only will the cost be reduced , safety which is priceless in itself , will also be greatly enhanced . as and when the regular patent application is filed and patent is granted , the life of the patent will be 20 years . even at the current levels , with road accidents placed at number nine on the who list as a major cause of death , there is a daily loss of two billion us $ . even at the present level , over a period of twenty years , without any interest and without any compounding , this loss works out to be : 2 billion us $ x 365 days x 20 years - 14 , 600 billion us $ . d . our technology will ensure that at least seventy - five percent of the above losses are prevented . such figure works out to be more that 10 , 000 billion us $ . it is important to note that this is the projection at the current level . as per the future projections , the incidents of road accidents are expected to increase . hence , the figure is likely to be increase very substantially . in addition the time factor and the interest factor will inflate this figure further . e . at the current levels , more than 1 . 2 million persons are dying every year due to road accidents . even at the current rates , more than 24 million lives will be lost in road accidents over the next twenty years ( i . e . life of the patent , when granted ) . besides , at the current levels . 3 . 2 million people are injured every year . in the next twenty years , the number of people injured due to road accident , will therefore be more than half a billion . f . if we add to that the personal , physical and psychological traumas to those directly involved in and also to those who are associated with the people involved in the road accidents . the trauma and the misery and henceforth the value of the savings , are all unmeasurable in quantities , presently known to human kind . g . considering the figures and dynamics as explained hereinabove , it may not be improper or out of place to compare this technology with the introduction of electricity , computer or aircrafts in terms of its value to mankind . h . the benefits of this technology will be so obvious and essential that , in the very near future , the use of this technology will become unavoidable . it should and will become mandatory by law , to install such technology and the installation of such technology should and will be a pre - requisite for granting or renewal of the registration and license of all vehicles in future . i . as described hereinabove ; this technology and its utility are incomparable , outthought of , and unheard of till date . it will open a new floodgate in human travel and safety measures . in future , it can and will be applied to other mode of transport , like aircrafts and trains also . . among other things , we have the following options available to us : - options available to us : - a - outright sale ( a ) immediate outright sale of the idea and the concept along with our filed applications for one time lump sum consideration . ( b ) further development of the concept and further filing of patent and all patent related applications , before taking steps as outlined in "" a "" . the process ( b ) will obviously increase the realization in terms of price . b - licencing options i ) new vehicles - granting of licenses to manufacturers of automobiles , individually or collectively , all over the world for incorporation in the automobiles to be manufactured in future on fixed time or per piece basis . ii ) conversion of existing vehicles - to independent agents for conversion of the existing more than 1000 billion vehicles all over the world . c - combined options a collaborative arrangement with some private and / or government agency wherein we receive a certain down payment and then jointly distribute the licensing rights on a pre - decided sharing ( partnership ) arrangement . the economics of the project will be as follows : - 1 ) in case any / all processes and systems described by us are incorporated in the design of new vehicles and the new vehicles are manufactured in accordance with the modified designs , the cost escalation may not be more than 5 % to 8 % , and the safety and the protection will be ten times ( more than ) the price escalation . hence , drop in insurance premier will compensate for the cost escalation . 2 ) in case , the existing vehicles are modified , the cost involved will be approximately 10 % to 15 % of the value of the vehicle . but partial modifications at a lower cost , which will give partial protection , may also be carried out . as a thumb rule , the cost of modification in percentage terms will be about one fifth of the percentage of safety and protection provided . 3 ) in case the value of the vehicles is low or the life of the vehicle is about to expire , the partial modifications may be practically and economically viable , as incorporation onto a new vehicle is relatively less expensive and more protective . 4 ) there are more than 1000 billion motor vehicles in the world at present . besides there are an unspecified number of non - motorized ehicles . 5 ) almost all of them can be converted in phased manner to a variable degree . the cost of conversion will be directly proportional to their current market value and the safety shield to be generated there from . 6 ) among the motorised vehicles , the conversion cost may work out of few dollars for every percent of safety shield created the exact calculation can be worked out , but over all , some of the methods may provide more safety at lower cost compared to the other which may differ in efficiency . 7 ) even if we consider a very vague and approximate cost of conversion of 300 us $ per vehicle , the conversion industry works out to be worth 3 , 00 , 000 billion us $ . 8 ) realising the potential of the product in terms of human safety , it will be reasonable to presume that majority of such conversion will be completed over a period of three years from the starting date . 9 ) as pointed hereinabove , the size of the conversion industry may be estimated to , in the range of 1 , 00 , 000 billion us $ per year over the next three years . 10 ) alternatively , considering the diversity of available motorised vehicles all over the world , conversion licensing can also be commercially viable proposition . for such conversion , licenses can be granted on - line , on receipt of on - line payments . in that case , different rates for granting conversion to vehicles having specific registration numbers can be granted in accordance with and in proportion to the size , carrying capacity and the engine power of the vehicle . 11 ) in case , licensing is done , the creation and installation of the concerned systems will be done by the end - user , as per his circumstances and needs . however , piracy is likely to be a major problem in such licensing . 12 ) it is likely that as and when the systems are introduced in the motorised vehicles , unusual and unprecedented demand of new vehicles is created . this will result in massive rejection of the vehicles currently playing all over the world and stimulate an entirely new market as far as motorised vehicle is concerned . the size of such market is difficult to either comprehend and / or estimate . p . s . 1 ) some of the figures have been rounded off but generally the figures are correct . 2 ) we have tried to keep this communication brief and to the point . more details , including website references are available with us and can be provided , if required .

"Subject: urgent reply . from the desk of : barr arisman shonikon chambers & associates no 56 b . aba road , port - harcourt nigeria private email address ( @ shymail . com ) dear i sincerely apologize for intruding into your privacy especially by contacting you through this means for a business transaction of this magnitude , but due to its seriousness and urgency it therefore became necessary for me to seek your assistance . i am barr . arisman shonikon , the personal lawyer to late mr . frank ionescu , a foreigner , who worked with an oil servicing company in the oil rich niger delta area of bayelsa state . i am contacting you concerning my late client and an investment he made . i would respectfully request that you keep the contents of this mail confidential and respect the integrity of the information you come by as a result of this mail . i contacted you independently and no one should be informed of this communication . i would like to intimate you with certain facts that i believe would be of interest to you . this is a genuine transaction and is 100 % risk free . all i ' m demanding from you is your honest co - operation to enable us achieve our goal , and not a perfidious person . on the 6 th of may , 2002 it was reported to us that my client , his wife and their only daughter were involved in a local plane crash at kano state , enroot abuja ( the capital city ) all occupants in the plane lost their lives , unfortunately on this same flight were other dignitaries like the sports minister and a host of others meanwhile , until his death , my late client had a fixed deposit account of usd $ 15 . million deposited in a security company ( unic security company ) here . recently , i received an ultimatum from the security company asking me to provide my late client ' s relative so that the money would be given to them . but unfortunately it was discovered that my late client did not declare any identifiable family member in all the official documents he tendered to the security company while opening the account . therefore , this development leaves me as the only person with the full picture of what the prevailing situation is in relation to the deposit my late client made and who is entitled to be the bona fide beneficiary / next of kin or relative because he died intestate . therefore , if i fail to locate any of his relatives or his next of kin ( and have this money transferred to them ) the security company will at the expiration of the 6 weeks ultimatum given to me confiscate the account . according to the ultimatum issued to me by the security company , if i fail to present to them my late client ' s relative , with a legitimate statement of claim for the money before the given time they will confiscate the account and the money declared ' unclaimed balance ' . this will result in the money being taken over by the security company . this will not happen if i have my way . since i have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives of my late client all these while , my proposal , therefore , is to present you as the next of kin / relative of my client due to the fact that you are a foreigner and can easily pass as a possible relative of my client . i know you will be wondering how possible this could be but i assure you that this is simple . i therefore seek your consent to present you as the next of kin to my client so that the money he deposited with the security company would be paid to you and there after you and i will share the money 40 % for you and i will be taking 60 % . i assure you that the deposit would be released to you within a few days because i have all the relevant information that would facilitate that will be required on documentation . first , i will like you to provide immediately the following information : your full names . contact address . telephone / fax numbers . with this information i will prepare the necessary documents and affidavit that will put you in place as the next of kin . after we have successfully satisfied the requirements of the bank the money totaling usd 15 . million would be paid into your account for you to take 40 % and i will be taking 60 % . all i require is your honest co - operation to enable us see this through . there is no risk at all because everything would be done legally and my position as a qualified attorney will facilitate everything . secondly , i will give you all the necessary documents that would serve as evidence proving that you are the next of kin / relative of my late client . these documents will legally conferm on you the status to act as the beneficiary of the estate of my late client . what i related to you might smack of unethical practice but i want you to understand that this is a once in life time opportunity capable of turning around our situation . the truth is that this money would not be taken by the government but by some greedy security company officials and i would not fold my arms and watch this happen hence my decision to contact you . if you are interested in doing this transaction with me kindly send your reply to this email address : ( arismanshonikon @ shymail . com ) thank you as i await your positive response . barr . arisman shonikon .",1

"Subject: good day friend dear friend , my name is salim ibrahim a merchant in dubai , in the u . a . e . i have been diagnosed with esophageal cancer it has defiled all forms of medical treatment , and right now i have only about a few months to live , according to medical experts . i have not particularly lived my life so well , as i never really cared for anyone ( not even myself ) but my business . though i am very rich , i was never generous , i was always hostile to people and only focused on my business as that was the only thing i cared for . but now i regret all this as i now know that there is more to life than just wanting to have or make all the money in the world . i believe when god gives me a second chance to come to this world i would live my life a different way from how i have lived it . now that god has called me , i have willed and given most of my property and assets to my immediate and extended family members as well as a few close friends . i want god to be merciful to me and accept my soul so , i have decided to give also to charity organizations , as i want this to be one of the last good deeds i do on earth . so far , i have distributed money to some charity organizations in the u . a . e , algeria and malaysia . now that my health has deteriorated so badly , i cannot do this myself anymore . i once asked members of my family to close one of my accounts and distribute the money which i have there to charity organization in bulgaria and pakistan , they refused and kept the money to themselves . hence , i do not trust them anymore , as they seem not to be contended with what i have left for them . the last of my money which no one knows of is the huge cash deposit of ( twenty million five hundred thousand u . s dollars ) that i have with a finance / security company abroad . i will want you to help me collect this consignment and dispatched it to charity organizations . i have set aside 15 % for you . god be with you . salim ibrahim note : please do get back to me via my private email address at ibrahim _ salim @ ny . com becuase i do not want my family to know anything about this project , so i could give you the full details about the funds . please endeavour to get back to me via my specified private email address . thanks for understanding . may the almighty allah bless you abondantly . mail enviado desde el servicio webmail en el sitio | * btw * | call of duty - . . /",1

"Subject: info you requested kcc thank you for your interest ! judgment coursesoffers an extensive training course in "" how to collect moneyjudgments "" if you are like many people , you are not even sure what a money judgment is and why processing money judgments can earn you very substantial income . if you ever sue a company or a person and you win then you will have a money judgment against them . you are happy you won but you will soon find out the shocking fact : its now up to you to collect on the judgment . the court does not require the loser to pay you . the court will not even help you . you must trace the loser down , find their assets , their employment , bank accounts , real estate , stocks and bonds , etc . very few people know how to find these assets or what to do when they are found . the result is that millions of judgments are just sitting in files and being forgotten . in 79 % of the cases the winner of a judgment never sees a dime . the non - payment of judicial debt has grown to epidemic proportions . right now in the united states there is between 200 and 300 billion dollars of uncollectedmoney judgment debt . for every judgment that is paid , 5 more judgments take its place . we identified this massive market 8 years ago and have actively pursued judicial judgments since . we invented this business . we have perfected it into a well proven and solid profession in which only a select few will be trained in the techniques necessary to succeed . with our first hand experience we have built a course which teaches you how to start your business in this new unknown and exciting field of processing money judgments . by following the steps laid out in our course and with reasonable effort you can become very successful in the processing of money judgments . the income potential is substantial in this profession . we have associates who have taken our course and are now working full time making $ 96 , 000 . 00 to over $ 200 , 000 . 00 per year . part time associates are earning between $ 24 , 000 . 00 and $ 100 , 000 . 00 per year . some choose to operateout of their home and work by themselves . others build a sizable organization of 15 to 25 people in attractive business offices . today our company and our associates have over 126 million dollars in money judgments that we are currently processing . of this 126 million , 25 million is in the form of joint ventures between our firm and our associates . joint ventures are where we make our money . we only break even when our course is purchased . we make a 12 % margin on the reports we supply to our associates . our reporting capability is so extensive that government agencies , police officers , attorneys , credit agencies etc . , all come to us for reports . many of our associates already have real estate liens in force of between 5 million to over 15 million dollars . legally this means that when the properties are sold or refinanced our associate must be paid off . the norm is 10 % interest compounded annually on unpaid money judgments . annual interest on 5 million at 10 % translates to $ 500 , 000 . 00 annually in interest income , not counting the payment of the principal . our associates earn half of this amount or $ 250 , 000 . 00 per year . this is just for interest , not counting principle and not counting the compounding of the interest which can add substantial additional income . typically companies are sold for 10 times earnings . just based on simple interest an associate with 5 million in real estate liens could sell their business for approximately 2 . 5 million dollars . 92 % of all of our associates work out of their home ; 43 % are women and 36 % are part time . one of the benefits of working in this field is that you are not under any kind of time frame . if you decide to take off for a month on vacation then go . the judgments you are working on will be there when you return . the judgments are still in force , they do not disappear . the way we train you is non - confrontational . you use your computer and telephone to do most of the processing . you never confront the debtor . the debtor doesn ' t know who you are . you are not a collection agency . simply stated the steps to successful money processing are as follows : mail our recommended letter to companies and individuals with money judgments . ( we train you how to find out who to write to ) 8 % to 11 % of the firms and people you write will call you and ask for your help . they call you , you don ' t call them unless you want to . you send them an agreement ( supplied in the course ) to sign which splits every dollar you collect 50 % to you and 50 % to them . this applies no matter if the judgment is for $ 2 , 000 . 00 or $ 2 , 000 , 000 . 00 . you then go on - line to our computers to find the debtor and their assets . we offer over 120 powerful reports to assist you . they range from credit reports from all three credit bureaus , to bank account locates , employment locates , skip traces and locating stocks and bonds , etc . the prices of our reports are very low . typically 1 / 2 to 1 / 3 of what other firms charge . for example we charge $ 6 . 00 for an individuals credit report when some other companies charge $ 25 . 00 . once you find the debtor and their assets you file garnishments and liens on the assets you have located . ( standard fill in the blanks forms are included in the course ) when you receive the assets you keep 50 % and send 50 % to the original judgment holder . once the judgment is fully paid you mail a satisfaction of judgment to the court . ( included in the course ) quote ' s from several of our students : thomas in area code 516 writes us : "" i just wanted to drop you a short note thanking you for your excellent course . my first week , part time , will net me 3 , 700 . 00 dollars . your professionalism in both the manual and your support . you have the video opened doors for me in the future . there ' s no stopping me now . recently thomas states he has over $ 8 , 500 , 000 worth of judgments he is working on "" after only having this course for four months , larry s . in area code 314 stated to us : "" i am now making $ 2 , 000 . 00 per week and expect this to grow to twice this amountwithin the next year . i am having a ball . i have over $ 250 , 000 in judgments i am collecting on now "" after having our course for 7 months larry s . in 314 stated "" i am now making $ 12 , 000 . 00 per month and have approximately $ 500 , 000 . 00 in judgments i am collecting on . looks like i will have to hire someone to help out "" marshal in area code 407 states to us "" i feel bad , you only charged me $ 259 . 00 for this course and it is a goldmine . i have added 3 full time people to help me after only having your course for 5 months "" > from the above information and actual results you can see why we can state the following : with our course you can own your own successful business . a business which earns you substantial income now and one which could be sold in 3 - 5 years , paying you enough to retire on and travel the world . a business which is extremely interesting to be in . a business in which every day is new and exciting . none of your days will be hum - drum . your brain is challenged . a business , which protects you from corporate downsizing . a business which you can start part time from your home and later , if you so desire , you can work in full time . a business , which is your ticket to freedom from others telling you what to do . a business , which lets you control your own destiny . our training has made this happen for many others already . make it happen for you ! if the above sounds interesting to you then its time for you to talk to a real live human being , no cost or obligation on your part . please call us at 1 - 281 - 500 - 4018 . we have service support staff available to you from 8 : 00 am to 10 : 00 pm ( central time ) 7 days a week . if you callthis number you can talk to one of our experienced customer support personnel . they can answer any questions you may have - with no obligation . sometimes we run special pricing on our courses and combinations of courses . when you call our customer support line they can let you know of any specials we may be running . if you like what you read and hear about our courses , then the customer support person can work with you to place your order . we are very low key . we merely give you the facts and you can then decide if you want to work with us or not . thank you for your time and interest . + + + + + this ad is produced and sent out by : uas to be excluded from our mailing list please email us at eds @ saiyan . com with "" exclude "" in the sub - line . or write us at : adminscript - update , p o b 1 2 0 0 , o r a n g e s t a d , a r u b a + + + + + + 5 ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' to 48 5 - 28 c 30 p - sspltm - 30 ",1

"" i waited patiently . i knew boys like to play . they ' d come to me in their own time . on day two , the oldest two were doing summersaults over my lap . the youngest , ben , took a little longer , but yesterday he raced me across the yard thirty times and won every time . the weekend brought back memories of my own childhood . we had such imaginations . in our minds , a tree was a tower to spot approaching bad guys , a big rock became a mountain , a fallen log a space ship headed to the stars . we had toys , but we had to use our imagination , not like the new toys i see my grandkids with . our toys didn ' t talk , and if they did , you pulled a string to make it work . we had blocks to build , crayons to create , trucks and cars to push . they were simple toys that required imagination . i thought about the toys in my garage , the ones i saved , when my children outgrew them . they were simple and needed their imagination to work . mr . potato head allowed them to learn parts of the body and giggle at the funny face with an ear where its mouth should have been . i still have an old plastic phone . it has a dial to turn , a bell that rings when you push a button , and that ' s it . it doesn ' t talk , squawk , beep or move around the room . it ' s simple and was used when they played house , nurse , doctor , and secretary . i have a toy doctor ' s bag , with all the plastic doctor ' s tools . i remember all the broken bones , cuts , bangs , scratches and aches my daughter repaired as i lay in her office moaning . most toys today do it all . we don ' t need imagination - - it comes in a box . video games that take us into another world or reality , talking toys , with vocabularies better than most people , computerized toys to teach the alphabet . kids sit and have imagination brought to them . the teaching toys are great , but children tire of them - - it ' s like being in school . when my son was young and tired of his toys , he would come to me and say , "" dad , i ' m bored . "" "" go find something to do , "" i ' d reply . "" i don ' t know what to do . "" "" go outside and find a friend . "" "" naaa ! i don ' t want to do that . "" "" use your imagination . "" "" huh ? "" he asked . "" well , when i was young . . . "" you know the routine . sports is the same . we ' re entertained for hours watching someone else have fun doing what they ' re good at . wouldn ' t it be better to be playing yourself ? if we don ' t like the sports available to watch , we create new ones . it doesn ' t matter what , people will pay to see it , because they need to be entertained . i haven ' t heard of world championship worm digging , but if someone offered a large cash price , people would buy tickets to scream at the contestants . i worry . are we becoming a society that needs outside influence to have fun ? i think i ' ll go climb a tree . maybe there ' s a pirate ship on the horizon or someone is attacking my castle . just imagine . - - michael t . smith michael lives in new jersey with his new wife and son . from our mailbag : ( in response to last week ' s story , cinderella men ) dear heartwarmers : last week ' s heartwarming story opened a door to memory lane . i too , was born in the 30 s and felt some of the poverty of that time . i remember my mom and dad who never complained of the fatigue that was so ever present in their lives . we were very fortunate in as much as we always had plenty of food and warm shelter . we had a garden and salvaged every edible product available - - even certain "" weeds "" that were quite tasty after mother got all the spices in them . i had several beautiful dresses made from feed sacks that i wore with pride ! we were very poor , but so rich indeed because we had love and the knowledge that god was upper most in our lives , and it taught us lessons that had never been printed in the books . i deeply appreciate those lessons of long ago because they have taught me how to handle the tough times we have encountered in this life of prosperity and promise . thank you again for your lovely story . god bless . - - do you enjoy heartwarmers ?

"" roxxy ' s management team combines highly experienced industry executives drawn from the major labels and also includes a staff of in - house producers who are among the most influential talents in the music industry today . "" it is roxxy ' s vision to seize the opportunities afforded by the major labels ' lack of commitment to their artists and customers ; labels that cast aside established artists who can no longer generate multi - million selling recordings , but who consistently release albums which sell hundreds of thousands of records to a large and loyal fan base ; artists that can easily generate revenues between $ 1 and $ 5 million per title , "" stated john shebanow , roxxy ' s ceo . "" additionally , the acquisition of vdg will provide us with the ability to distribute our own product directly to retail to over 22 , 000 retail location in north america , effectively doubling the company ' s net profit margins and allowing the increased revenue to pass on to our artists . "" mr . shebanow concluded , "" while there are smaller labels that do provide a home for these acts , they lack either the will or financial resources to commit to the kind of budgets which producers of the caliber we have on staff require . and no company has the unique combination of great producers , in - house distribution and dedication to the artist and the customer that controversial entertainment will possess .

"Subject: business intent dear sir , i am stanley woodwork , the secetary of africa white farmers co - operation ( awfc ) of zimbabwe . after the last general elections in my country where the incumbent president mr . robert mugabe won the presidential election , the government has adopted a very aggressive land reforms programme . this programme is solely aimed at taking the land owned by white african farmers for redistribution to black africans . this programme has attracted worldwide condemnation from world leaders including british prime minister , mr tony blair and also forced several white farmers to flee the country for fear of victimization and physical abuse . two weeks ago , our headquartes in harare was attacked and looted by black protesters and in the process burnt down the whole building . fortunately , they did not get access to the huge funds kept in the strong room which belong to the co - operation . this cash was kept at the secretariat rather than in the bank for fear of seizure by the government . now i have the funds in my possession and would need to get it invested in a viable business venture in europe . the cash in question is us $ 46 million dollars . once i can get your commitment and sincerity of investing this funds on our behalf then i would proceed to get the funds freighted to europe , where you would be required to pick it up for investment for us . you do not have anything to worry about as i would undertake all charges involved in freighting the funds to europe , and the business proposal is 100 % legal and risk free . you would be adequately compensated for all your effort once we have gotten the funds to europe . please get back to me if you can be of assistance and i would want our correspondence to be via email as most phone lines of white farmers are bugged by the government . i expect 100 % confidentiality and your prompt response to this mail so as to proceed . you may also reach me on stanleywoodwork @ email . com kind regards , stanley woodwork .",1

"Subject: business partnership ( urgent / confidential ) mr . vincent nnaji , standard trust bank ltd , lagos , nigeria . dear sir , i am mr . vincent nnaji , bank manager of standard trust bank , lagos , nigeria . i have urgent and very confidential business proposition for you . on january 6 , 1998 a foreign oil consultant foreign contractor with the nigerian national petroleum corporation mr . james herbert made a numbered time fixed deposit for twelve calendar months valued at us $ 20 m ( twenty million united states dollars ) in my branch . upon maturity i sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but got no reply . after a month we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his contract employers the nigerian national petroleum corporation that mr . james herbert died from an automobile accident . on further investigation , i found out that he died without making a will and all attempts to trace his next of kin was fruitless . i therefore made further investigation and discovered that mr . james herbert did not declare any next of kin or relations in all his official documents including his bank deposit paperwork in my bank . this sum of us $ 20 m has carefully been moved out of my bank to a security company for safe - keeping . no one will ever come forward to claim it . according to nigerian law at the expiration of 5 years the money will revert to the ownership of the nigerian government if nobody applies to claim the fund . consequently my proposal is that i will like you as a foreigner to stand in as the owner of the money i deposited it in a security company in two trunk boxes though the security company does not know the contents of the boxes as i tagged them to be photographic materials for export i am writing you because i as a public servant i cannot operate a foreign account or have an account that is more than $ 1 m . i want to present you as the owner of the boxes in the security company so you can be able to claim them with the help of my attorney . all these are to make sure that the fruits of this old man ' s labour will not get into the hands of some corrupt government officials . this is simple . i will like you to provide immediately your full names and address so that the attorney will prepare the necessary documents which will put you in place as the owner of the boxes . the money will be shared in the ratio of 70 % for me and 25 % for you and 5 % will take care of all expenses . there is no risk at all as all the paperwork for this transaction will be done by the attorney and this will guarantee the successful execution of this transaction . if you are interested , please reply immediately via my private email address . upon your response i shall then provide you with more details and relevant documents that will help you understand the transaction . please observe with utmost confidentiality and be rest assured that this transaction would be most profitable for both of us because i shall require your assistance to invest my share in your country . awaiting your urgent reply via my private email to indicate your interest . thanks and regards , mr . vincent nnaji .",1

"Subject: otc gdvi - the momentum continues - gdvi website debute otc bbalert gdvi news update : global diversified industries debutes brand new website ! www . gdvi . net otc bb alert spectacular operating results momentum continues sales projections for next 12 months surpasses $ 20 million 99 . 8 % revenue increase 278 % net income increase 154 % stockholders equity increase 79 % increase in assets $ 8 million order backlog $ 50 million manufacturing capacity overview global diversified industries operates in the modular building construction industry , and strategically targets the california education sector . gdvi is strategically located in central california on 16 acres with a 100 , 000 square foot state - of - the - art manufacturing facility . throughout 2003 and 2004 the company focused on building its infrastructure through acquisitions , development of a state - of - the - art manufacturing facility , and by securing the requisite financing facilities to fuel business growth . through the combination of its new facility ( $ 50 million capacity ) , the increased demand for portable buildings and the state of california ' s bond approvals , gdvi has become well positioned to become one of the dominant leaders in modular manufacturing on the west coast . gdvi should benefit greatly from the $ 12 . 1 billion school improvement bond that is expected to be passed by california voters next month ( march ) . this presents , in our opinion an opportunity for early investors of gdvi to also benefit before the mainstream investor realizes who the benefactors are and subsequently invests in those companies . global diversified has taken numerous strategic development steps throughout 2003 and 2004 , including generating strong revenues as well as profits and is now poised for explosive growth in 2005 . the company is led by a strong management team with previous success in building companies into $ 50 million per annum businesses . in the past year gdvi has exceeded its own sales revenue projections , renewed its piggyback contract , received state approvals on engineered product designs , started a new credit facility and opened its new 100 , 000 square foot manufacturing facility . the company will continue to seek new acquisition candidates through its aggressive growth plan . profile gdvi is a holding company that currently operates two wholly owned subsidiaries , mbs construction inc . , a modular contractor specializing in modular construction site work and renovation and global modular , inc . , a sales , marketing and manufacturing of modular type structures . its principal customer base is currently educational ( public and private schools , universities , etc . ) , child - care and municipality sectors . its product lines consist of a variety of portable classroom designs , including both single - story and two - story floor plans . global modular ' s portable classroom structures are engineered and constructed in accordance with pre - approved building plans , commonly referred to as p . c . ' s or pre - checked plans , that conform to structural and seismic safety specifications administered by the california department of state architects ( dsa ) . global modular also enjoys the benefit of providing educational customers with products contracted under a piggyback clause . the state of california allows school districts to canvass proposals from modular classroom vendors under a bidding process where the successful bidder can provide other public school districts and municipalities portable classrooms under a piggyback contract issued by the originating school district . this process saves school districts valuable time and resources from the necessity of soliciting bids . a modular vendor who possesses a piggyback contract containing competitive pricing and a variety of design options may have access to future business for up to five years , depending on the term of the piggyback contract . the strategic focus on california schools since 1998 , california legislation has required that at least 20 % of all new classrooms constructed with state funds be portable structures . there are five compelling reasons for this trend : modular classrooms are faster to construct ( as quickly as 2 weeks ) they cost significantly less ( as low as $ 30 , 000 vs . $ 100 , 000 ) they offer greater flexibility for use compared to conventional buildings they are easier to finance they provide financing incentives to cope with population growth , the state department of education estimates that california will need more than 2 , 500 classrooms each year for the next four years , which equates to more than 10 , 000 classrooms . due to the current and projected budget cuts throughout the california education sector , public and private schools are expected to turn to portable / modular construction to fulfill their additional classroom requirements over the next four years . the california schools budget crisis on november 5 , 2002 a $ 13 . 2 billion school facilities improvements bond proposal ( proposition 47 ) was passed by california voters . this bond measure passage does not include an approximate $ 9 . 4 billion worth of local bond measures passed by various school districts throughout the state . a second bond measure worth $ 12 . 1 billion went before the voters on the march 2004 . these bond measures are about three times higher than the record $ 9 . 2 billion bond california voters approved in 1998 . the revenue generated from these bond measures will be used for school modernization programs , which include requirements for relocatable classrooms and modular classroom construction and renovations . money from the bonds will help overcrowded public and private schools ; design upgrades and expand building space at community colleges and other institutions of higher learning throughout california . gdvi business infrastructure among global modular ' s asset base is its integrated , state - of - the - art , automated manufacturing process which includes equipment , raw material and marketing collateral that are specifically designed for the high capacity fabrication of modular structures . gdvi employs a workforce of 60 employees and is looking to add to its workforce as demand increases . operates out of a sixteen acre site with a 100 , 000 square foot operating structure . wholly owned subsidiary ( global modular inc . ) markets , designs and manufactures the buildings wholly owned subsidiary ( mbs corporation ) handles installation and building renovation . symbol otc . bb gdvi recent price 13 . 5 cents management team philip hamilton , ceo and president mr . hamilton has an extensive and very successful background in modular manufacturing . from 1996 to feb 2000 he served as chairman and ceo of pacesetter industries inc . he built this company from inception into one of californias largest manufacturers , producing and installing thousands of schools and commercial buildings . under his leadership , pacesetter industries moved into a 5 , 500 , 000 sq . ft . facility in atwater , california with branch sales offices throughout the state . the company employed a staff of over 650 employees and had annual sales of $ 50 , 000 , 000 . adam de bard , vice president mr . de bard has over 6 years of experience in the manufacturing and business sectors . from 1997 to 2000 he served as vice president and chief information officer of pacesetter industries . ronald kilpatrick , director of finance mr . kilpatrick has 36 years experience in both domestic and international development and management of major corporations . he is a managing partner of pacific rim capital llc which provides venture capital to projects in the pacific rim . recent headlines global diversified industries , inc . commencing efforts to increase its u . s . based investor and public relations visibility pr newswire ( tue 5 : 00 am ) global diversified industries , inc . modular division secures new order worth more than $ 3 million for immediate delivery pr newswire ( thu , jun 9 ) wallst . net airing all - new , exclusive audio interviews with gdvi and geoi pr newswire ( tue , jun 7 ) wallst . net airing exclusive audio interviews with gdvi and xle pr newswire ( thu , jun 2 ) global diversified industries , inc . acquires valuable assets from california modular company pr newswire ( thu , may 26 ) global diversified industries , inc . modular division implementing its fourth production line pr newswire ( thu , may 19 ) talkingstocks . com announces interview with philip hamilton , president and ceo of global diversified industries , inc . primezone media network ( tue , may 17 ) stockguru . com initiates profile coverage of global diversified industries , inc . primezone media network ( mon , may 16 ) global diversified industries ' modular division billings total $ 1 . 4 million in april ;

! ! this is a legitimate business . you are offering a product for sale and getting paid for it . treat it as such and you will be very profitable in a short period of time . 1 . . after you have ordered all 5 reports , take this advertisement and remove the name & address of the person in report # 5 . this person has made it through the cycle and is no doubt counting their fortune . 2 . . move the name & address in report # 4 down to report # 5 . 3 . . move the name & address in report # 3 down to report # 4 . 4 . . move the name & address in report # 2 down to report # 3 . 5 . . move the name & address in report # 1 down to report # 2 6 . . . . insert your name & address in the report # 1 position . please make sure you copy every name & address accurately ! this is critical to your success . take this entire letter , with the modified list of names , and save it on your computer . do not make any other changes . save this on a disk as well just in case if you loose any data . to assist you with marketing your business on the internet , the 5 reports you purchase will provide you with invaluable marketing information which includes how to send bulk e - mails legally , where to find thousands of free classified ads and much more . there are 2 primary methods to get this venture going : method # 1 : by sending bulk e - mail legally let ' s say that you decide to start small , just to see how it goes , and we will assume you and those involved send out only 5 , 000 e - mails each . let ' s also assume that the mailing receive only a 0 . 2 % ( 2 / 10 of 1 % ) response ( the response could be much better but lets just say it is only 0 . 2 % ) . also many peoplewill send out hundreds of thousands e - mails instead of only 5 , 000 each ) . continuing with this example , you send out only 5 , 000 e - mails . with a 0 . 2 % response , that is only 10 orders for report # 1 . those 10 people responded by sending out 5 , 000 e - mail each for a total of 50 , 000 . out of those 50 , 000 e - mails only 0 . 2 % responded with orders . that ' s = 100 people responded and ordered report # 2 . those 100 people mail out 5 , 000 e - mails each for a total of 500 , 000 e - mails . the 0 . 2 % response to that is 1000 orders for report # 3 . those 1000 people send 5 , 000 e - mail each for a total of 5 million e - mail sent out . the 0 . 2 % response is 10 , 000 orders for report # 4 . those 10 , 000 people send out 5 , 000 e - mails each for a total of 50 , 000 , 000 ( 50 million ) e - mails . the 0 . 2 % response to that is 100 , 000 orders for report # 5 . that ' s 100 , 000 orders times $ 5 each = $ 500 , 000 . 00 ( half a million dollars ) . your total income in this example is : 1 . . . . . $ 50 + 2 . . . . . $ 500 + 3 . . . . . $ 5 , 000 + 4 . . . . . $ 50 , 000 + 5 . . . . $ 500 , 000 . . . . grand total = $ 555 , 550 . 00 numbers do not lie . get a pencil & paper and figure out the worst possible responses and no matter how you calculate it , you will still make a lot of money ! remember friend , this is assuming only 10 people ordering out of 5 , 000 you mailed to . dare to think for a moment what would happen if everyone or half or even one 4 th of those people mailed 100 , 000 e - mails each or more ? there are over 150 million people on the internet worldwide and counting , with thousands more coming on line every day . believe me , many people will do just that , and more ! method # 2 : by placing free ads on the internet advertising on the net is very , very inexpensive and there are hundreds of free places to advertise . placing a lot of free ads on the internet will easily get a larger response . we strongly suggest you start with method # 1 and add method # 2 as you go along . for every $ 5 you receive , all you must do is e - mail them the report they ordered . that ' s it . always provide same day service on all orders . this will guarantee that the e - mail they send out , with your name and address on it , will be prompt because they can not advertise until they receive the report . = = = = = = = = = = = available reports = = = = = = = = = = = = = = the reason for the "" cash "" is not because this is illegal or somehow "" wrong "" . it is simply about time . time for checks or credit cards to be cleared or approved , etc . concealing it is simply so no one can see there is money in the envelope and steal it before it gets to you . order each report by its number & name only . notes : always send $ 5 cash ( u . s . currency ) for each report . checks not accepted . make sure the cash is concealed by wrapping it in at least 2 sheets of paper . on one of those sheets of paper , write the number & the name of the report you are ordering , your e - mail address and your name and postal address . place your order for these reports now : = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = report # 1 : ' the insider ' s guide to advertising for free on the net order report # 1 from : y . l . wong p . o . box no . 71819 kowloon central post office hong kong report # 2 : the insider ' s guide to sending bulk email on the net order report # 2 from : martin veronneau c . p . 70058 laval , quebec h 7 r 5 z 2 canada report # 3 : secret to multilevel marketing on the net order report # 3 from : francis kidd p . o . box 209 homestead , pa 15120 usa report # 4 : how to become a millionaire using mlm & the net order report # 4 from : m . l . frayser p . o . box 61432 fort myers , fl 33906 usa report # 5 : how to send out one million emails for free order report # 5 from : stone evans 600 n . pearl , suite gl 03 dallas , tx 75201 usa $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ your success guidelines $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ follow these guidelines to guarantee your success : = = = if you do not receive at least 10 orders for report # 1 within 2 weeks , continue sending e - mails until you do . = = = after you have received 10 orders , 2 to 3 weeks after that you should receive 100 orders or more for report # 2 . if you did not , continue advertising or sending e - mails until you do . * * once you have received 100 or more orders for report # 2 , you can relax , because the system is already working for you , and the cash will continue to roll in ! this is important to remember : every time your name is moved down on the list , you are placed in front of a different report . you can keep track of your progress by watching which report people are ordering from you . if you want to generate more income send another batch of e - mails and start the whole process again . there is no limit to the income you can generate from this business !

"Subject: capital hill gold - chgi - potential high grade gold deposit breaking news : denver , june 14 , 2005 ( business wire ) - - capital hill gold , inc , ( chgi ) reports that the company ' s geologists are evaluating a potential high - grade bulk - tonnage gold deposit located in mineral county , nevada , the project is situated in the vicinity of several operating and past - producing gold mines , including the paradise peak , santa fe and rawhide deposits , after review of usgs geochemical survey work of the project and a study of the geology of other gold deposits in the area , geologists believe that the target would be a high - grade bulk - tonnage gold deposit , virgin deposits : the privately - held 440 - acre project was originally staked by a major gold mining company in the 1990 s , the property has never been drilled and may prove to be a rich vein as early tests have indicated , follow - up work by the company ' s geologist indicated that a major international gold mining company had staked approximately 200 unpatented lode - mining claims in the area during 2001 and 2002 , geologists investigating the property for capital hill observed multiple broad zones of silicification extending for considerable distances , samples were collected from several outcrops on the property , and have been submitted to american assay labs in elko , nevada for assaying , based on positive assay results , target and identification , a major claim - staking program will be launched accordingly , as further credible evidence emerges of a significant gold ore deposit , and the first results coming in are showing promise , on june 13 , 2005 the company announced in a press release that capital hill ' s management is pleased and encouraged with the first u 3 o 8 ( uranium oxide ) assay returns as well as the noticeable precious metal results and that initial reconnaissance sampling on the company ' s uranium project has returned assays grading 0 , 061 % u 3 o 8 to 0 , 068 % u 3 o 8 of great interest to the company is the fact that the samples taken also assayed positively for precious metals , with results ranging from 0 , 08 to 0 , 22 oz ag / st and trace amounts of gold , the occurrence of silver in conjunction with the uranium mineralization warrants further investigation . the recent news of the company possibly sitting on a huge untapped gold deposit has the stock in a strong up trend , rallying from 5 cents to 75 cents during the past three months . as the three - month chart illustrates , trading volume has swelled to 300 , 000 shares per day with money flow indicators showing strong inflows , which is representative of a stock that is under accumulation . the positive tape action clearly shows strong investor sentiment about the company ' s leverage on controlling sizable parcels of gold fields . the potential recoverable gold data has yet to be compiled , but as mentioned above , early tests are very promising , which is why investors are bidding up shares ahead of this data . capital hill gold ' s strategic objective is to obtain controlling interests in properties with excellent exploration potential to become economically significant to world - class ore deposits . chgi intends to acquire mineral exploration properties primarily through the filing of concessions on its own account and in partnership as well as by optioning exceptional properties at reasonable costs relative to the property ' s potential and the financial capabilities of the company . in recent weeks , chgi shareholders have been on the receiving end of some very promising developments with the new discoveries for gold ore . in addition , the company is aggressively exploring for commercial grade uranium deposits that will supply newly heightened demand from nuclear utilities . since 2003 uranium prices have doubled . 20 % of the world ' s electricity comes from uranium , and the nuclear power plant count is stable and growing . the united states needs to add about 100 nuclear power plants over the next two decades to meet burgeoning demand for electric power and maintain the current generating mix , nils j . diaz , chairman of the u . s . nuclear regulatory commission told reporters in early may 2005 . as of may 17 , 2005 the company is pleased to report that the claim staking crew and geologist have arrived on site , and have begun staking claims . the area being staked encompasses a large area of potentially commercial - grade uranium mineralization identified by previous work , including geophysical surveys . reconnaissance sampling of the ground being staked has returned assay results approximately equal to those of in - place resources at one of the past - producing uranium mines in the project area . a chinese news web site reports that china , the world ' s second - largest energy consumer after the u . s . , will spend 400 billion yuan ( u . s . $ 48 . 33 billion ) on building new nuclear power plants by 2020 . this is a bigger number than we have seen in the past . the energy - hungry country intends to increase the amount of installed nuclear power capacity from the current 16 gigawatts to 40 gigawatts within 15 years . nuclear power generation is expected to triple to reach 60 gigawatts by that time . so the market for uranium is in a new bull market . conclusion development efforts for gold and uranium on chgi properties are about to commence following the better - than - expected geophysical testing results . shares of chgi have rallied over 10 - fold in just the past three months in anticipation of what the future holds in the way of extractible gold and uranium . once full mining operations are under way , it is our view , that the shares will rally as the business generates its initial revenue stream . for additional information , visit investor relations solutions is a communications arm of ir solutions profiles . investor relations solutions is not licensed by any governmental or regulatory agencies and is not a registered investment advisor , financial planning service or a stock brokerage firm and in accordance with such , investor relations solutions is not offering investment advice or promoting any investment strategies . investor relations solutions is not offering securities for sale or solicitation of any offer to buy or sell securities . this stock advertisement or e -

"" the government , way back in 1995 , has modified the sales tax rate to 4 per cent to discourage the import of naphtha from gujarat by electrical companies operating in maharashtra . the decision was taken with a view to encouraging electrical companies to procure naphtha at reduced rates within the state , "" government sources added . sources said that these companies had to pay nearly 15 . 3 per cent sales tax on naphtha that was procured from gujarat . however , following their representation , the government slashed the sales tax rate to 4 per cent . the state finance department ' s opinion , which would be presented before the state cabinet shortly in order to take a final decision , deserves special significance especially when the state energy department and the loss - making maharashtra state electricity board ( mseb ) have wholeheartedly supported the dpc ' s cause and recommended the sales tax waiver . dpc , which was asked by the union ministry of oil and petroleum to procure naphtha within the country in view of excess availability , in its presentation to the state government and to mseb , had made it clear that it would be left with no alternative but to pass on the additional burden on the mseb which would be ultimately passed on to its consumers . dpc had also told the state government that it had not paid sales tax on the procurement of naphtha from glencore in the calender year 2000 . sources from the state energy department and mseb have stressed on the need for such a waiver while expressing their inability to bear additional burden . they have suggested that the state should reciprocate by offering a sales tax exemption to dpc because the ioc , at the behest of the centre , has tried to match the international landing price of naphtha during the recently signed memorandum of agreement with dpc . "" if the state finance department sticks to its views , it may hurt the state as a whole , "" sources from the state energy department and mseb said . dpc will procure naphtha at rs 11 , 050 per ton from ioc during the calender year 2001 as compared to the rs 10 , 050 per tonne price quoted by glencore . the naphtha price comprises $ 175 per tonne free on board ( fob ) , 21 . 8 per cent of customs duty , 5 . 4 per cent of sales tax and $ 18 . 87 of premium . dpc senior vice president mukesh tyagi reiterated that the company has already made an appeal to the state government for the sales tax waiver on naphtha in the larger interest of the consumers . "" sales tax is a pass through and mseb , which will have to bear the additional burden , will pass it on the consumers , "" he added . - - - - - - - centre yet to receive proposal on enron thursday jan 18 2001 centre on wednesday said that it had not recevied any proposal from maharashtra government seeking help to solve the tangle with the enron promoted dhabol power project relating to cost and surplus power . asked about the reports that maharashtra government was sending a proposal that centre buy surplus power from dhabol power company through power trading corporation , power minister suresh prabhu said "" we have not received any proposal . "" "" we are carefully watching the situation and will await a concrete proposal before intervening in this matter , "" parbhu said on the sidelines of greentech environment excellence awards ceremony , here . asked whether there was any possibility of the government asking the power trading corporation to buy power from the dhabol power corporation , prabhu replied "" what will the ptc do with the power ? "" prabhu had earlier asked the state government to study the matter before approaching the centre for payment of dues . mseb had earlier declined to pick up its 15 per cent stake in phase ii of the 1444 mw project . the enron issue has been hanging fire with the maharashtra state electricity board unable to clear the dues of dpc as a result of the skyrocketing prices of naphtha infact mseb has asked dpc to backdown completely leading to a situation where dpc has stopped production at the facility from the begining of the month . state government has stepped in with support to the tune of rs 114 crore to enable mseb to clear the dues for october . mseb dues to dpc for november and december amount to over rs 300 crores .",0

' state govt . to renegotiate dabhol power project , by hubert vaz the economic times , friday apr 27 2001 dpc board empowers md to cancel mseb contract the enron power project crisis on thursday deepened with the board of dabhol power company authorising the management to issue a termination notice to the maharashtra state electricity board even while international lenders to the project asked enron to renegotiate power purchase agreement signed with the mseb . the decision to authorise managing director neil mcgregor to issue "" notice of termination on the contract to sell 740 mw of power "" was taken after the board prevented mseb from voting on the ground that it was an interested party . the decision was taken with six votes in favour and the single opposition vote was cast by idbi , sources said . according to reports , financial institutions such as anz investment bank , credit suisse first boston , citibank , abn - amro and the state bank of india have on wednesday advised enron against terminating its ppa with mseb . mseb chairman vinay bansal , who with two other directors attended the meeting on wednesday representing maharashtra , s 15 per cent stake in the near $ 3 - billion project , said : "" the indian side told them that it would be unfortunate if enron broke the contract . "" while bansal declined comment on the board decision , the sources said the indian side had expressed its interest to holds talks on the issue rather than terminating the project and there were possibilities of a fresh power purchase agreement between the company and the state . ( pti ) the economic times , friday apr 27 2001 mseb pays rs 134 cr under ' protest ' to dpc despite the threat of a possible termination notice hanging on its head , maharashtra state electricity board on thursday made a "" protest payment "" of rs 134 crore disputed amount , towards march bill of rs 146 . 64 crore to dabhol . "" we were ready with the payment on wednesday itself , but dpc officials could not collect the cheque due to the statewide bandh "" , a senior mseb official said . "" we have disputed payment of rs 12 . 64 crore and it would be now taken up at the disputes resolution forum , of which enron india managing director k wade cline and krishna rao are members "" , mseb sources said . last week , dpc had dashed off a communication to the government and mseb that it would not accept "" protest payments "" anymore . cline had said the energy major shall treat such payments as an election to pay the sums , which mseb in fact owed dpc in full and that the company would also not recognise the "" purported protest or reservation "" . mseb had paid a rs 113 . 5 crore february bill in protest last month . on april 23 last , both domestic and international lenders of dpc had met in london and held exhaustive discussions the multinational ' s move to issue a termination notice to mseb and state government . ( pti ) business standard , friday , april 27 , 001 enron india md authorised to terminate ppa the board of the enron - promoted dabhol power company ( dpc ) , at its meeting in london on wednesday , authorised the managing director of enron india to issue a notice for terminating the power purchase agreement to the maharashtra state electricity board and the state government . & the board has authorised wade cline to serve the termination notice . however , this does not mean that the termination notice will be served immediately . it is only an enabling provision and will be used only if the situation arises , 8 a state government source told business standard from london . he said dpc was under pressure from its lenders . the dpc spokesperson here refused to comment on the issue . the hardening of the board , s stand is in sharp contrast to the advice of dpc ' s lenders , who had warned enron not to precipitate matters by issuing a termination notice . the lenders had arrived at a consensus that the termination notice need not be served at this stage . serving of the notice requires a nod from the lenders , who have an exposure of about $ 2 billion in the project . sources said given the lenders ' strong opposition to termination of the contract , the enron board ' s "" enabling resolution "" did not have much significance beyond conveying a hardening of its stand with regard to the current imbroglio . the maharashtra chief minister had warned enron not to scuttle the process of crisis resolution by issuing a termination notice . the state government is to nominate an expert group to renegotiate the terms of the dabhol contract . enron holds 65 per cent in dpc , while us - based ge and bechtel hold 10 per cent each . the balance 15 per cent is held by mseb through a special purpose vehicle , maharashtra power development corporation . the mseb representatives were not allowed to vote at the meeting since they were an interested party . the idbi representative protested against the board ' s decision . the meeting was attended by state energy secretary vm lal . the meeting was held against the backdrop of a dispute between mseb and dpc over payment of bills . after mseb failed to pay rs 102 crore towards the december 2000 bill , dpc invoked the state government ' s guarantee and then the union government ' s counter guarantee . when payment of the rs 127 - crore january bill became overdue , dpc again invoked the state government ' s guarantee . mseb retaliated on january 28 , 2001 by slapping a rs 401 - crore penalty for non - supply of electricity at adequate levels . it demanded that dpc adjust the bills against this penalty . "" this stand of mseb was explained to dpc at the board meeting "" , a state government official said . the centre also supported mseb ' s stand and refused to honour the counter guarantee . the power company then invoked the political force majeure clause . a process of conciliation and arbitration between the centre and dpc is currently on . the financial express , friday , april 27 , 2001 foreign lenders slam brakes on disbursements to dpc , sanjay jog & raghu mohan global banks comfortable with enron pull - out lenders to the dabhol power company ( dpc ) are a sharply divided lot . international lenders , in direct contrast to the stand taken by local ones led by the the industrial develoment bank of india ( idbi ) , are categorical that additional assistance to dpc , s phase - ii will be held in abeyance despite the completion of 92 per cent of the project work . the stage is also set for a preliminary termination notice to be served by dpc to the maharashtra state electricity board ( mseb ) within the next four weeks . this follows the authorisation given to enron india , s managing director k wade cline and dpc president & ceo neil mcgregor to serve the termination notice , and transfer notices to mseb , following wednesday , s dpc board meeting in london . the essence of the message from the international lenders following the london meeting with dpc board is : emotions do not work . contractual obligations and payments have to be met . we are convinced that the mseb has failed to meet its obligations . there is no point in enron continuing with the project and the company should get out of it . the structuring of dpc , s debt has created two classes of lenders . in phase - i , international lenders are covered by a sovereign guarantee while in phase - ii , no lender is . however , all lenders have a parri passu charge , making attachment of assets a messy affair . sources in international banks were quick to point out that local lenders to phase - ii of the project are worried that an awry dpc project will affect their interests more given that they have no security * other than assets * like a sovereign cover . & it was this desperation that made local lenders like idbi slash the interest rates a few months back to 16 . 5 per cent from 21 . 5 per cent , 8 a leading foreign banker pointed out . three points that were made clear and stressed in no uncertain terms by international lenders were : a ) there are contractual obligations b ) mseb was not punctual in its payments to dpc and c ) mseb adopted a confrontational position by slapping a rs 401 crore rebate charge on dpc for misdeclaration and default on the availability of power . while local lenders led by idbi * with mseb parroting the same * were of the view that the current situation is a temporary one , international lenders were steadfast that pulling out of the project is the only way out . this is despite the stance taken by idbi and mseb that authorisation for termination given to mr cline and mr mcgregor was not called for . international bankers pointed out that they will now have to look at the issue of charges and protection for their loans in the event of the power project being scrapped in its present form . the points of contention are : a ) that phase - i of dpc is backed by a sovereign guarantee b ) phase - ii is not and c ) to the extent that phase - ii is covered by assets , cancellation of phase - ii may see all assets * even those under phase - i * getting attached . therefore , an examination on the segregation of assets under phase - i and phase - ii is now warranted . pti adds : in a significant move , dpc board has empowered its management to sever power supply agreement with mseb , a move that could inflict a financial liability of about rs 2840 crore on the centre . a decision to authorise dpc president neil mcgregor to issue a termination notice to mseb for sale of power was taken by the board at its meeting on wednesday . the indian express , friday , april 27 , 2001 enron : dabhol chief gets powers to end deal with the mseb the board of dabhol power company , a subsidiary of houston - based enron corp , has decided to warn the maharashtra state electricity board ( mseb ) that it intends to pull the plug on its guhagar - based project . in a board meeting held in london on wednesday , the board decided to authorise dpc president and ceo neil mcgregor and enron india , s managing director k wade cline to serve a + + preliminary , , termination notice for sale of power to the mseb within the next four weeks . the dabhol project has been mired in disputes since mseb began missing payments last year . mseb owes dabhol power $ 48 million for power delivered in december and january . the payment ran into a dispute after mseb slapped penalty notices of rs 401 crore on dpc for its failure to supply power within three hours of the demand being placed . but mseb has paid $ 24 million for february . and a payment of $ 31 million was made for march on thursday . the $ 3 billion dabhol project is the largest foreign investment made in india to date . issuing the preliminary termination notice could enable dabhol to suspend deliveries as it negotiates payment disputes . while a preliminary termination notice is the first of three steps that could potentially lead to the abandonment of the project by enron , analysts have described the decision as a + + procedural , , move consistent with dpc , s negotiating strategy to recover overdue payments from the mseb . after the company issues the preliminary termination notice , step two would be an official termination notice , and step three would be a notice that the company is surrendering control of the project . if the project is terminated , the government of india will have to take a hit of $ 300 million besides paying bills of rs 1 , 500 crore for the next one year to enron as penalty . + + our ( centre , s ) liability , if dabhol power project is terminated , would be one year , s electricity bill and a termination fee of $ 300 million , , , power secretary a k basu said . + + contractually , the centre will have to pay one year , s electricity bill , totalling at present prices about rs 1 , 400 - 1 , 500 crore , and take over dpc , s debt , which stands at around $ 300 million , if the project was terminated , , , basu said in delhi . dabhol power is in the process of completing the second phase of the 2 , 184 - megawatt power - plant project , which is 95 per cent through . while the international lenders to the project are pressurising the company to get out of the project , indian lenders , led by idbi , are asking the company to reconsider its decision on its termination notice . during the meeting in london , mseb which holds a 15 per cent stake in the project , had strongly opposed dpc , s move to authorise cline and mcgregor to issue notices for termination . mseb chairman vinay bansal and technical director prem paunikar * both directors on the dpc board * and the state principal secretary ( energy ) vm lal , an invitee to the board , raised the issue at the board meeting in london . mseb claimed that dpc was needlessly + + threatening , , to issue various arbitration notices and thereby interpreting the clauses of ppa in isolation . in recent weeks , dabhol has raised the stakes in its spat with the mseb , delivering a notice of political force majeure to maharashtra * a step typically invoked to dissolve a contract in case of an emergency like a war , coup , or a similar radical political event . in this case , dpc , s move was viewed as a threat to stop providing electricity . dpc has come under fire because of the relatively high cost of its power . critics object to the company charging rs 7 . 1 a kilowatt - hour for its power , compared with around rs 1 . 5 a kilowatt - hour charged by other suppliers . the hindu , friday , april 27 , 2001 offer of renegotiation ' too late ' : enron , by mahesh vijapurkar mumbai , april 26 . the enron - sponsored dabhol power company , which last night authorised its local management to issue a notice of termination of its power purchase agreement ( ppa ) with the maharashtra state electricity board , has decided to keep a stiff upper lip . this , in turn , has stoked speculation that the switching off of power from its phase i plant was imminent , while in reality , a lengthy procedure has to be followed as prescribed within the ppa . as one source familiar with the ppa told the hindu , ` ` it is not sudden death of the project ' ' and in all probability , the dpc , vexed with the developments , including sharp and pointed observations by the godbole committee , has chosen to only arm itself with a serious option . ` ` this would only eventually come into effect . it is not an overnight operation and a lot of legal work is involved ' ' . apparently , the dpc intends to do some arm - twisting . at the board of directors meeting in london , which maharashtra was initially disinclined to attend but later used the forum to put across its contentions on the project , the dpc squarely told the mseb nominees on the board that the offer of renegotiation had come rather ` ` too late ' ' . it also said it did not see any room for optimism about the outcome . it did not , however , rule out the option of talks , thus underscoring the possibility that the decision to authorise termination was a new weapon . the maharashtra chief minister , mr . vilasrao deshmukh , had hoped that dpc would not take any ` ` harsh step ' ' which would cause lot of damage to the interests of both the independent power producer and the government and today he expressed his dismay . in fact , the mandate of the team that went , on the strength of its stake in the dpc , was to put across the idea that negotiation was the requirement and not confrontation . echo in ls the enron issue also echoed in the lok sabha today where the power minister , mr . suresh prabhu , said that scrapping of the agreement would cost the centre rs . 2 , 840 crores , whose liability in the project agreement was limited . the centre ' s liability in case of termination is one year ' s electricity bill and a termination fee of $ 300 million . blow to fis the termination could prove to be a serious blow to the indian financial institutions ( fis ) which , under the leadership of the idbi , were trying to convince the other lenders of the project against the notice . the exposure of indian fis in the project is understood to be not covered by any guarantee either of the centre or the state . the times of india , friday , 27 april 2001 enron ready to pull out , but lenders say wait the dabhol power company board , which met on wednesday in london , authorised the company management to issue a termination notice to the maharashtra state electricity board . the company , however , may not pull out of the project yet , considering its lenders , who met on monday , opposed such a move and favoured renegotiations . sources present during both the meetings said that though foreign lenders supported enron on the termination issue , domestic financial institutions , led by the industrial development bank of india , prevailed over the deliberations to oppose any such drastic move . enron needs the lenders ' consent to file a pre - termination notice for pulling out from the project . the decision to empower dpc chief wade cline to issue a termination notice was taken with six votes in favour against a single idbi vote against such a move . another significant development during the entire proceedings was that the financial institutions made it clear that further funding of phase ii of the project will depend on the government of india assuring payment mechanisms . institutions are yet to disburse about 30 per cent of the sanctioned package , which is crucial for completing the phase ii expansion project . ` ` the board has given powers to wade cline to issue a pre - termination notice . but the meeting quite unanimously felt the need of the hour is not to terminate the project but to initiate serious re - negotiation proceedings , ' ' said mseb chairman vinay bansal , who attended the board meeting . ` ` mseb presented their views to the board members and it was understood by enron which also included the rs 401 crore penalty issue which is heading for arbitration proceedings . ` ` we have also made it clear that the tariff structure of enron is quite high and a downward revision of tariffs is unavoidable , "" bansal added . ` ` they cannot issue a termination notice without our consent since our exposure in the project is quite large and the lenders should approve any plans in that direction , ' ' said a top banker who was present during the lenders ' meet . ` ` there is a general consensus that the project must be completed and the proposal to terminate the ppa should be kept in abeyance , ' ' he added . the global arrangers for the dpc include anz investment bank , credit suisse first boston , abn - amro , citibank and the state bank of india , where all these parties conducted separate meetings with the company officials . however , some bankers said the company can file a termination notice even if one lender with a minimum 5 per cent exposure on the project favours such proceedings . meanwhile , in a clear reversal of roles , maharashtra chief minister vilasrao deshmukh said that the state government was not keen on terminating the ppa . ` ` we will ask them to refrain from taking any such harsh steps since that would be bad news for all of us , including dpc , ' ' deshmukh said . deshmukh was echoing union power minister suresh prabhu ' s sentiments , who said that the government wanted an amicable settlement of the payment row . he , however , added that termination of the project would not hurt foreign investments , and dismissed warnings by analysts that winding up the $ 2 . 9 billion project would be a blow to india ' s efforts to woo foreign investors . the dpc has already slapped one conciliation notice on the centre and three arbitration notices on the state government over non - payment of dues amounting to rs 213 crore and interest towards the bills due for december 2000 and january 2001 . meanwhile , mseb officials said in mumbai that the march bills amounting to rs 134 crore was paid on thursday as protest payment , despite the dispute over the amount . when asked on the future course of action , bansal said it was up to the dpc . the hindu businessline , friday , april 27 , 2001 dpc board authorises md to issue ppa termination notice the board of directors of dabhol power company ( dpc ) has authorised the managing director , mr neil mcgregor , to issue the notice of intent to terminate its power purchase agreement ( ppa ) with the maharashtra state electricity board ( mseb ) ` ` at an appropriate time ' ' . the decision was taken at a board meeting held in london yesterday . ` ` while mseb , which is an ` interested party ' , was not allowed to vote , it made a presentation clarifying its stand on the matter , ' ' a senior state government official said . the resolution to authorise the management to issue the termination notice was carried by six votes to one . idbi voted against the decision , the official said . the serving of the preliminary termination notice will lead to a six - month ` ` suspension period ' ' . according to clause 17 . 8 of the termination procedure , of the ppa : ` ` following the giving of a preliminary termination notice , the parties shall consult for a period of six months ( or such longer period as they may agree ) as to what step shall be taken with a view to mitigating the consequences of the relevant event having regard to all the circumstances . . . ' ' idbi and state bank of india , the principal indian lenders , had earlier persuaded the overseas lenders to hold their consent to the termination notice for some more time . at least one lender has to consent for the company to serve termination notice . it is understood that overseas lenders are in favour of termination of the project and are prepared to consent . however , domestic lenders are worried about the security of their advances if the ppa is abandoned mid - way . according to institutional sources , indian lenders are trying to get all the parties concerned to thrash out outstanding issues . the maharashtra and central governments too are in favour of a conciliation . mr vilasrao deshmukh , chief minister of maharashtra , yesterday went on record that the state did not want the project terminated . mr yashwant sinha , union finance minister , is also understood to be of the same opinion . ` ` the dpc will now have to decide what is the ` appropriate time ' to serve the notice , ' ' the official said . mseb pays rs 134 crore : meanwhile , mseb has paid dpc rs 134 crore towards its march 2001 bill . mseb officials confirmed that the bill was paid ` in protest ' ' today morning . ` ` they ( dpc ) had billed us for an amount of rs 146 crore . we do not agree with some of the items included , ' ' a senior mseb official said . the pioneer , friday , april 27 , 2001 enron testing maharashtra ' s nerves , t n raghunatha dabhol power company ( dpc ) has begun to put fresh pressure on the maharashtra state electricity board ( mseb ) , the maharashtra state government and the centre for an early resolution to the prolonged dispute between them , if the dpc board of directors ' decision to authorise its managing director to serve a contract termination notice to the mseb is any indication . the dpc board , in its meeting in london on wednesday , empowered the company management to sever its power supply agreement with mseb , a move that could inflict a financial liability of rs 2 , 840 crore on the centre . the decision to authorise the dpc management to issue a termination notice to mseb was taken by a vote of six to one after the maharasthra government representatives were prevented from voting on the ground of "" interested party "" . when contacted , the company ' s mumbai - based spokesperson , mr jimmy mogal , declined to comment on the reports about the decision taken by the dpc board . "" we have nothing to say on the reports emanating from london . we will express our views after a few days , "" he said . however , maharashtra chief minister vilasrao deshmukh on thursday termed the dpc board ' s decision as "" unfortunate "" . "" we have already requested the company not to take any harsh decision "" , mr deshmukh said in mumbai . official sources in the state energy ministry interpreted the dpc board ' s decision as a pressure tactic employed by the enron subsidiary to force the mseb to clear the pending power bills without any further delay . through its tough posture , the dpc wants to make its position stronger before it can formally agree for re - negotiations with the mseb , the centre and the state government for cutting the price of power supplied by it to the state electricity board . the sources said that the dpc ' s reported decision to authorise its managing director to stop electricity supply to the mseb did not mean that the enron subsidiary would actually go ahead with the scrapping of the power contract with the mseb . "" if anything , the dpc ' s reported decision is to mount additional pressure on the mseb for clearance of pending power bills and put itself in a stronger position in settling its dispute with the mseb . as part of its plan to arm itself with powers to break a contract in case situation goes beyond its control , the dpc had recently served a political force majeure to the mseb , the centre and the state government , "" the sources said . not surprisingly , the dpc ' s london decision comes on the heels of the maharashtra government ' s decision to set up a high - level committee , comprising representatives of the mseb , the centre and the state government to re - negotiate with the enron ' s subsidiary company for reducing the cost of power supplied to the state electricity board . meanwhile , amidst the threat of a possible termination notice hanging on its head , the mseb on thursday made a "" protest payment "" of the rs 134 crore disputed amount towards march bill of rs 146 . 64 crore to dpc . riday , april 27 the telegraph , friday , april 27 , 2001 enron signal to switch off dabhol power enron today took the first decisive step out of the controversy - ridden dabhol power company when it won an authorisation from the company , s board to stop sale of power to maharashtra state electricity board ( mseb ) . the meeting of the company , of which the houston - based energy giant holds 65 per cent and the mseb 15 per cent , was attended by state energy secretary v m lal and mseb technical director p paunikar and it came days after its lenders discussed payment problems and a possible termination . the centre , s liability , if enron decides to snap the agreement , will be a year , s power bill and a termination fee of $ 300 million . however , the company will have to wait for six months from the day it serves the notice before it pulls the plug . the centre shrugged off the move , saying there would not be any adverse effect on foreign investment in power if enron walks out . & we do not see fdi inflows into the power sector being hit , 8 power minister suresh prabhu said . mseb officials said the ball is now in the court of dpc , which said its corporate policy did not allow it to comment on proceedings at board meetings . the decision coincided with a rs 134 - crore + protest payment , by the cash - strapped power board as part of the march bill worth rs 146 . 64 crore . there was speculation that mseb coughed up the amount to cool frayed tempers at enron , s hub in houston , and because it was rattled by the sudden turn of events in the past few days during which the dispute had come to a head . mseb officials brushed away the allusions , saying the cheque was ready on wednesday but could not be handed over to dpc because of the state - wide bandh . & we have a disputed payment of rs 12 . 64 crore , which will be taken up at the dispute - resolution forum , 8 a board official said . last week , dpc told the state government and mseb it would no longer accept protest payments in a move to fortify its legal position . mseb officials say bechtel and general electric , the other partners who hold around 20 per cent in dpc , are willing to go along with enron corp in terminating the deal but financial institutions such as idbi are not game because it puts their loans at risk . investments made by indian institutions are not covered under the centre , s and state , s counter - guarantees , unlike those made by international lenders . maharashtra chief minister vilasrao deshmukh called enron , s decision unfortunate . & we had told state government officials attending the enron board meeting to stop the company from winding up its operations in the state as it will harm both parties . 8 the statesman , friday , april 27 , 2001 enron threatens to pull out the enron crisis deepened with the board of directors of the dabhol power company deciding to authorise the managing director , mr k wade cline , to serve a notice of termination on the contract for the first phase of the $ 2 . 9 billion power project . the decision , which could lead to the cessation of dabhol , s power supply to the state , was taken at the meeting held yesterday in london according to reports quoting the chairman of the maharashtra state electricity board , mr vinay bansal . while dpc officials refuse to comment on anything , it is learnt that mseb was itself prepared to serve a legal notice of termination just two days before the meeting . mseb was said to have been dissuaded by the nationalist congress party president , mr sharad pawar , and union power minister mr suresh prabhu , who had talks in new delhi with the maharashtra chief minister , mr vilasrao deshmukh , and an mseb delegation last monday . the state government has been served two arbitration notices while the centre is ready to go for conciliation with the dpc for failing to honour its counter - guarantee . further , the dpc has already slapped a notice of political force majeure which protects itself against undeserved claims in the event of exigencies that force it to take an extreme step . the union power minister , mr suresh prabhu , contended in delhi that since dpc contributed only 0 . 7 per cent of the total energy output of the country , its termination would not have such a phenomenal impact on the power situation . however , if terminations proceedings go through , enron corp , a 65 per cent share - holder in the dabhol power company , would stand to net a hefty amount in damages . the union power secretary has been quoted as saying that termination of the dpc would cost the centre rs 1 , 800 crore , which is the total of one years , electricity bill and a termination fee of $ 300 million . according to an energy analyst , mr pradyumna kaul , the total liability would not cross rs 350 crore . however mr prabhu said in the lok sabha today that the that scrapping of the agreement would cost the centre rs 2 , 840 crore . it is learnt that on 20 april , mr deshmukh had given the go - ahead to the mseb to prepare a legal notice to be issued to enron during the meeting of the dpc , s board of directors on wednesday . at the meeting , the energy minister , padamsinh patil , energy secretary , mr vinay mohan lal and mseb chairman mr vinay bansal , were also present . the notice was prepared over the past weekend and taken by the delegation when they called on mr prabhu on 24 april . however , the politicians convinced them that enron would not get tough , given its huge stake in the project , and that such a notice would not be necessary . the meeting thus ended with the decision to renegotiate the power tariff , with enron , s consent . among those present at the london meeting were mr lal , mr bansal and mseb technical director , mr p paunikar , in their capacity as directors . however , they abstained from voting since they were deemed an interested party . the only vote to go against the decision was that of the idbi which is also represented on the board , it is learnt . the chief minister , mr vilasrao deshmukh , said the state was not in favour of terminating the project . this could mean that the latest manoeuvre to arm - twist the indian authorities could achieve its immediate target of getting the arrears accumulated over the past three months cleared . the mseb owes enron rs 146 . 64 crore for march 2001 and rs 229 crore for december 2000 and january 2001 . the centre today put up a brave face on enron , s decision saying there would not be any adverse effect on foreign investment in power sector in the country , pti reported from new delhi . & there will be no adverse impact as a result of any action by any domestic or foreign company . as far as we are concerned there will be no adverse impact on fdi in power sector , 8 power minister suresh prabhu told reporters when asked about dpc , s decision to authorise management to issue a termination notice to mseb . emphasising that there would be no fallout of such decision , prabhu said after the meeting of the cabinet committee on economic affairs & we are expecting cooperation from many scandinavian countries as well as european nations in the power sector . & in fact not only the power minister but also the prime minister of norway was here to inaugurate a seminar on power and he promised lot of cooperation in the sector . 8 mid day ' dpc may not wind up ' maharashtra chief secretary v ranganathan has said that though neil mcgregor , managing director of the dabhol power corporation ( dpc ) , has been given complete powers with regard to dpc ' s operations in the state , including the authority to wind up operations , it does not necessarily mean that mcgregor will issue such a termination notice . mcgregor was given the powers at a meeting of the dpc board in london on wednesday . ranganathan said that state officials , including maharashtra state electricity board ( mseb ) chairman vinay bansal and power secretary v m lal , have reported back to him about the meeting in london . with regard to the state ' s failure to pay enron , ranganathan said , "" bills are prepared as per the power purchase agreement ( ppa ) and dpc owes some money to us . our people informed enron officials about this . . in fact , there was no reason to give powers to the md to slap a termination notice . "" in the london meeting , mseb and industrial development bank of india ( idbi ) representatives insisted that the dpc must pay rs 411 crore since it could not supply power whenever needed . chief minister vilasrao deshmukh has already termed as unfortunate the decision of the board of the enron - promoted dpc to give mcgregor powers to wind up operations . deshmukh added , "" we have already requested enron not to take any harsh decision . "" deshmukh had earlier said , "" we have directed state government officials attending the dpc board meeting to desist the energy company from winding up operations in the state , as it would be harmful to both of us . "" enron officials are keeping mum on the issue . mcgregor said , "" i am not going to give any comment . "" mid day , april 27 , 2001 enron offers ' no comment ' on renegotiation , h s rao a crucial meeting of the board of directors of the dabhol power company ( dpc ) , promoted by the us energy major enron , was held here yesterday apparently to discuss fate of its $ 900 - million power project in maharashtra , but there was no official word on the indian and state governments ' decision to renegotiate the contract . an enron spokesman declined to divulge what transpired at the meeting , saying the issues discussed at the meeting were ' confidential ' . "" we have not received any direct communication . unless we get it and evaluate the details , we have no comments to make , "" the spokesman said when asked about the proposed decision on re - negotiation of the project in which the maharashtra state electricity board ( mseb ) has 15 per cent stake . asked whether the board had taken a decision on empowering dpc managing director neil mcgregor to wind up its operations in india , the spokesman said he had nothing to say on them . enron has reportedly authorised mcgregor to look at various options including selling the company ' s stake in dpc . maharashtra chief minister vilasrao deshmukh said in mumbai that the state government would pay up the undisputed dues to the company . he said the maharashtra government "" is not in favour of terminating the 2184 - mw project , but wanted an amicable solution to the imbroglio . "" mid day , friday , april 27 , 2001 , committee to renegotiate enron deal a committee to renegotiate the power purchase agreement with the dabhol power company will be appointed by this evening , chief minister vilasrao deshmukh said today . addressing media persons after his meeting with the noted social reformer anna hazare at his official residence varsha , deshmukh said the committee would be formed by this evening or by tomorrow , at the most . he termed as unfortunate the enron board decision empowering dpc chief neil mcgregor to serve a preliminary termination notice on the maharashtra state electricity board and said the state was willing to negotiate the issue with power company . "" renegotiations will be held as per the suggestions made by the godbole committee and the center will also depute its representative on the renegotiating committee . we don ' t want to take any hasty decision , "" deshmukh saidhe pointed that the only bone of contention with the dpc had been its expensive tariff and hoped that the issue would be resolved amicably . when pointed that the enron board had taken a decision to serve the notice despite state 9 s willingness to appoint a renegotiating committee , chief minister said it was unfortunate . earlier , in his meeting with hazare , deshmukh promised to make necessary amendments to the right to information law recently passed by the state so that the information was easily accessed by the common people . he also gave a patient hearing to hazare on his complaints of corruption in various state departments and promised action against guilty after a thorough inquiry within three months . afternoon , april 27 , 2001 ' enron ' s on ! ' state govt . to renegotiate dabhol power project , by hubert vaz the us power giant , enron power corporation ' s willingness to wrap up the dabhol power project and leave the shores may not actually materialise , though the dabhol power company chief , mr . wade cline , has been authorised to do so , since the lenders for the project would have a decisive say in the matter . disclosing this , chief minister vilasrao deshmukh confirmed this morning that the state government would churn out a compromise formula by which the power project at dabhol could be continued , and at the same time enron did not feel slighted . "" enron has not yet conveyed to us about this decision . we are waiting for their letter , "" he said . when asked what sort of compromise the state government plans to forge , mr . deshmukh said , "" let our officers come back . after that we will decide a future course of action . but we are definitely going in for renegotiation of the project . it is very difficult to predict the outcome of enron ' s decision but as of now the project is still on . "" when asked whether the project could be moved to another state , if wound up from maharashtra , mr . deshmukh said , that was not possible as per the terms of the agreement between the us company and the state government . however , it was difficult for the project to move out of the state itself , he indicated . he also confirmed that both parties would face considerable losses if the project was terminated . the board of directors of the dabhol power company , which met in london on wednesday , decided to put an end to all controversies surrounding the project once and for all by empowering the dpc chief to terminate the project , if he deemed it fit . however , this decision , as of now , does not necessarily indicate the death knell for the project . the enron project , which had been riddled with controversies right from its inception , had been a pretext for the political parties in the state to drag each other on the mat from time to time . the previous sena - bjp government , which had been out to terminate the project , however , chose to continue with it following renegotiations with enron ' s top visiting officials like ms . rebecca mark . and , the democratic front government inherited the controversial project when the governments changed hands a year and a half ago . meanwhile , state energy minister dr . padamsinh patil , when contacted at the osmanabad circuit house , said the state government and the central government have decided to appoint a joint committee to renegotiate the project with enron . "" it is not easy for them to walk out of the project just like that . they will have to go in for litigation and this would prove costly for both sides , "" he said . in case the project is terminated , the government can still manage the power needs of the state , though it would be a bit tough job , he added .",0

"Subject: re : progress steve , thanks a lot . i think that having the pseudo code will go a long way towards understanding how the system works and making sure that there are no bugs in translation of a business problem ( for example , complicated credit insurance deals with multiple triggers and conditionality ) into the code . regarding tanya ' s attitude . just a few points . 1 . i don ' t think she has the skills to do the system administrator ' s work and she does not have the necessary privileges . this explains why she keeps asking winston for help . it ' s not that the work is beneath her . 2 . some members of tanya ' s team came to me complaining about winston . he effectively told them to go away and work on the "" research projects "" and that he would take care of the it issues . i don ' t think that it ' s just tanya ' s issue , though i agree that a more outgoing personality would be helpful . 3 . the reality of this situation is that the internal customers beat on tanya and me whenever there is any performance problems and / or they intuitively disagree with the results of a run . they could not care less about the demarcation line between it and research . they also want tanya to sign off on the model and she cannot do it without full access to the code . the bottom line is that we are in full agreement : tanya and winston have to work as a team and i shall work on my end to make sure that it happens . credit is emerging as a critical issue for enron for the next few weeks and the system cannot fail . vince from : stephen stock / enron @ enronxgate on 01 / 11 / 2001 08 : 23 am to : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect cc : subject : progress vince , i got feedback from the lunchtime research meeting that you were talking about some specific solutions to performance of it systems . . . in particular distributed processing . also i heard that you had concerns about the use of multiple languages etc . . . . both of these sound like what i was discussing with you on previous occasions . . . do you feel the need to discuss these further ? the multi - language issue isn ' t really that much of an issue , as the current system is 98 % java right now . although i am a big fan of c / c + + ( it is my main development skill ) , i am also very aware that java is a much more evolved and robust language . i had serious doubts about the performance , but i ' ve had a review conducted , and the results are showing the sun unix implementation to be nearly as fast and in some cases faster than c / c + + because of something they call hot - spot technology . ( its an instruction caching technique , i believe ) . the concerns i expressed to you , were really about how technical people justify the use of a language on the strength of a relatively meaningless metric like portability . on the issue of distributed processing . . . the original review i had conducted by our architecture group pointed to that as a solution , and as zhiyong wei is already working on global valuation project , winston is actively working with zhiyong to see if he can model the var architecture on that , and also to find a common valuation piece between the systems . i ' d like the opportunity to talk to you about these issues if you have some time over the next few days ? also , i sat in on the tanya / winston meeting yesterday and as per our discussion at the elevator , i attempted to help her argument by suggesting to all present that she was trying to perform triage on the code . . . i . e . seperating research domain problems from it problems . she said that stepping through code was the only real way in which she could get a feel for where performance bottlenecks were . i asked her how she would measure that , and she said she would instrument the code manually by inserting timing elements at strategic points . i mentioned that a profiling tool could probably do this job for her . tanya again said that stepping through code is the only way she can get an idea of the code , and that studying documentation wasn ' t enough . about 6 weeks ago , i commissioned a team to document the system down to psuedo - code level and will be able to provide this to you and your team soon . ( in fact i ' ve asked for a draft copy to be given to tanya right now ) , and winston is also working on a draft research / it "" working together "" document , which will identify how the exchange of information takes place . tanya also gave the impression that she wants a dedicated it developer to do all the environment setup for her , because she doesn ' t really want to have to do that . i think that this is probably the root cause of the issue . the it guys are working very hard and her handling of the situation is not good , as it gives the impression that this kind of work is beneath her . she is claiming that they are un - cooperative . . . . they are claiming that she continually asks the same questions about set - up over and over again , and doesn ' t seem to want to learn how to do it . winston on the other hand , could be more proactive in determining what is a business related model issue and an it issue and ask for help from research . i think you debbie and i need to work quite hard to get them to play nicely . i have asked tanya and winston to go ahead and work very closely together over the next few days . . . . and debbie brackett and i will review their progress on friday . in the meantime l ' ll be looking at setting up a working test environment that doesn ' t involve my main quant guys in day to to day setup issues as a longer term solution . regards steve",0

"Subject: re : lng may 19 decision john , sorry for the confusion . this is a second tanker on which very few details are available . the lng group is working as we speak to provide some information for joe sutton before his departure for paris this ( tuesday ) afternoon . there is no dash on this 2 nd tanker yet . i asked dave gorte on monday to send me one and was not told that he can provide me with the mystic lady dash as the closest substitute . vince john sherriff 05 / 16 / 2000 12 : 20 am to : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect cc : subject : re : lng may 19 decision vince - thanks for the update . what i am not sure of is what if any decision has to be made on may 19 . it seems to me that the mystic lady and elba island deals have already been approved and executed - but it is quite likely i am missing a detail or two . john vince j kaminski 15 / 05 / 2000 17 : 14 to : john sherriff / lon / ect @ ect cc : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect , david gorte / hou / ect @ ect , rick buy / hou / ect @ ect , ted murphy / hou / ect @ ect subject : re : lng may 19 decision john , this is the update on what i have done for the lng transactions . 1 . i was not involved in the lng ship project . i shall read the dash and give you my comments . without looking at the details , i think that the decision to charter a tanker removes one significant risk we have at the elba island project ( please , see point 2 ) . 2 . elba island . i am working with doug rotenberbg , brad hitch , scott earnest ( sally beck ' s organization ) and rac to set up the book for the elba island transaction . the next step will be to expand the book to capture all the enron ' s lng - related positions in one place and to look for natural risk offsets and possible hedges . a working group is meeting to close a few remaining gaps tomorrow ( tuesday ) at 8 : 30 . a few comments on the book design and my view of the project : a . the current thinking is that lng will be sourced for the elba island facility by buying marginal cargos on the fob basis . marginal cargos will represent supply from excess capacity that has not been committed under long - term contracts or became available due to some short - term frictions . the fob cargos are typically selling at a significant discount to the long - term contract prices . the economics of the deal , as represented by the book we are setting up , will reflect the assumption that not only we can locate marginal cargos but that we shall be able to do it on a regular basis , arranging shipping and coordinating the facility schedule and natural gas transactions in the us . in other words , we have a significant logistical and operational risk in this transaction . b . the transaction will cover the period of 17 years ( with an extension option of 5 years ) . even if we can lock - in the lng volumes over this time period , we have no ability to lock - in the other side of the spread ( us gas prices ) for such a long tenor . this is essentially a tolling transaction with exposure to the lng - nat gas spread and i would not recommend locking - in only one leg of the spread . one solution would be to cover , let ' s say , 50 % of he lng volumes for the first 5 years and lock - in the nat gas side on the us market side . c . the book we are setting up will be based on many managerial assumptions regarding sources of lng , shipping rates , schedules , etc . i would set up a big prudence reserve in case we mark it to market . d . my group will work on valuation of some options we have in the elba island deal ( that are good for enron ) and on the hedging strategy for the lng positions . long - term lng contracts are typically based on the japanese crude cocktail that correlates very well with brent . vince john sherriff 05 / 14 / 2000 01 : 40 am to : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect cc : lauren urquhart / lon / ect @ ect subject : lng may 19 decision vince i haven ' t spoken to you for awhile but hope the world is treating you well . anyway with greg moving to his new role i have ( i hope only temporarily ) staff trading oversight for the eastern hemishere plus lng . i understand that your group is taking a first cut at developing curves for lng and lng ship values . i also understand that another lng ship decision is on the dockets for may 19 ( not very far away ) . anway i understand this is a big decision but i still have gotten very little info yet . can you please let me know where you stand now ? i will ask my assistant lauren to set up a time that i can speak with you in the next couple of days and if you have anything for me to review before then she can get it faxed to me as well . look forward to connecting with you vince . john",0

"" he is well - deserving of an immediate promotion ( really more of a correction ) and pay raise , to be made retroactive at least to the lst of this month . this memo outlines the circumstances surrounding this hiring error and provides detailed justifications for this retroactive "" promotion . "" at the time of the interview process , there was no position in enron designated as "" professional meteorologist . "" in fact , the most recent similar hire prior to that date was jose marquez , also a professional meteorologist , who was hired in , based on salary alignment criteria , as a manager . while functionally , both these men are meteorologists , enron has no such job classification . compounded by the urgency in bringing on additional professional expertise in short time order , it was difficult to peg the proper enron classification appropriate for this new position . this original uncertainty and resulting misplacement of stephen into the specialist category , rather than the senior specialist category , needs to be corrected at this time . although a "" new - hire "" to enron , stephen bennett has extensive work experience . he has worked as a professional meteorologist at both the weather services corporation in boston and at the weather channel in atlanta . he came to enron well - referenced by both those organizations , needing no further training and only minimal supervision . once aboard here in houston , stephen immediately demonstrated the core enron values with our unique sense of urgency . after only a week , he assumed responsibilities normally reserved for someone actually at even a manager level - he was assigned and fully took over the critical afternoon weather briefings to the gas traders . this includes analysis and report preparation as well as presentation . also in the presentation arena , he now regularly briefs various desks in the morning and throughout the day . stephen is a master of communication and particularly adept at conveying what through other messengers might otherwise seem confusing or ambiguous . stephen has also demonstrated an unusually high level of self - initiative . he designed , implemented , and now maintains several sub - sites on the research web page which he tailored to various customers - in specific : the weather derivatives team , the agricultural team , and most recently , the crude and liquids team . i have recently assigned stephen to spearhead our conversion and major upgrade of this web page . these above described accomplishments are above and beyond stephen , s regular duties which include starting work at 5 am daily , reliably and without fail , to assemble and prepare our trader , s weather report . recently , with the advent of extended hours for both nymex and enrononline , stephen voluntarily on his own accord , assists in our new sunday weather support effort . as his supervisor , fully cognizant of his already standard 50 + hour work week , i do not solicit , but readily accept , this above and beyond expectations assistance . in review , the circumstance which resulted in this under hire condition was enron , s immediate need for a non - standard , fairly unique professional - a meteorologist , coupled with stephen , s desire to work for our company in spite of the absence of a hierarchy which included the exact entitled professional title reflecting his chosen career path . . once hired , stephen has clearly demonstrated through contribution and performance that he is well - deserving of this immediate and retroactive promotion .",0

( i will be glad to put this additional pricing provision into the agreement if you decide to move forward . ) i felt i was able to communicate the philosophy , scope , and operation of our approach during the meeting and to deliver you much of the information you might need to evaluate whether marketpoint meets your needs . i thought you were able to see the depth and sophistication of the product yet at the same time its simplicity and effectiveness . i thought you were able to see the benefits of the marketpoint dimension of economic equilibrium as a complement and supplement to other approaches you will assuredly use . i would be interested in your impressions and those of your colleagues . i look forward to your response and to moving ahead together . we view you as a very important prospective customer and client and will work with you to earn and secure your business . if you decide to license marketpoint , we can arrange to transfer and mount marketpoint and the short term narg model ( which is the model we suggest you begin with ) and travel to houston to deliver our 1 day training seminar . our clients are usually very fluent after that 1 day training seminar . thereafter , we would want you to work with the short term narg model for a few weeks while you get up to speed , very fluent , and very comfortable before you take delivery of the longer term version of narg several weeks later . thanks again , and all the best . if there is some item from the meeting that i might have forgotten to send , please remind me . my notes don ' t show anything , but i was speaking a lot rather than writing notes during the meeting and might have overlooked something someone wanted . dale nesbitt president marketpoint inc . 27121 adonna ct . los altos hills , ca 94022 ( 650 ) 218 - 3069 dale . nesbitt @ marketpointinc . com ( see attached file : license . doc )",0
"Subject: california update 3 / 15 / 01 executive summary ? davis might concede to rate hikes for future power consumption but not for past utility debt ? davis and pg & e negotiations at a standstill , sticking point is net short for pg & e this summer ? as the days go on with no word of a secured deal , involuntary bankruptcy chances increase significantly among small generators and qfs ? ferc would probably approve transmission deal but with several conditions for california california public utility commission rate increases today may be the turning point as the ca puc reviews the size of the department of water resources ( dwr ) rate increase to be passed along to consumers on their electricity bills . until now , davis has considered rate hikes to be political suicide , but there may be some relief for him from consumer groups . sources indicate that one of california ' s main consumer advocate leaders may tolerate rate increases for future power consumption , but remains adamant about not raising rates to cover past utility debt . dwr , which is currently buying power on behalf of the state , needs more income to securitize the planned $ 10 b bond issue that is key part of davis ' plan to sign long term power contracts . as dwr continues to spend $ 40 to $ 60 m every day on power purchases , a well placed source informed us the dwr is essentially bankrupt . it currently has no money for normal activities such as ordering supplies , purchasing new equipment , etc . the department of finance is forwarding dwr money from where ever it can ( parks , other programs ) to purchase power , but dwr ' s hands are tied until revenue bonds are issued . the california state treasurer phil angelides will be submitting a recommendation on rate increases in order to secure revenue and cover $ 10 billion worth of state bonds . davis & pg & e at odds sources report that davis and pg & e negotiations are facing two difficult challenges : 1 ) pg & e wants 2 . 9 times book , which is far more than consumer groups recommend for the sale of its transmission lines ( sce accepted 2 . 3 ) , and 2 ) pg & e needs relief from davis for pg & es legal responsibility to be the ultimate power purchaser for the state , and at this point davis wants to limit further state energy power purchases ( especially for summer ) . the utilities refuse to sign a deal which will leave them billions of dollars further in the red ( $ 3 to $ 4 b ) and pg a measure that if accomplished would provide davis with even less negotiating power . with all this activity , davis is starting to lose support in the state legislature . sources report increasing tension between the governor and state senate president pro - tem john burton . burton has just announced a special senate committee will investigate the generators for evidence of price manipulation , and the state auditor is also planning an investigation . davis increasingly realizes he has to protect any deal he signs against being picked apart by the legislature and consumer groups later . qf ' s most likely source of involuntary bankruptcy sacramento insiders fear that a group of small generators will lose patience and force bankruptcy on the utilities . sb 47 x may have been california ' s qualified facilities last hope at avoiding an involuntary bankruptcy filing against pg & e , socal ed , and sdg & e . the bill designed to cut the qf ' s costs and provide them with a better rate structure is being held up in the state ' s senate . sources indicate that a filing could come at anytime and further investigations are underway to ferret out the most likely candidates . out with hebert , in with wood the bush administration favors replacing hebert , jr . with texas puc head pat wood . there is an intense battle behind the scenes between senate republican leader trent lott , who favors hebert , and president bush , who wants wood . the administration would prefer wood because they do not want ferc to pick a fight with davis which means bush might ultimately lose some western states in 2004 . in effort to tone down the recent press reports , hebert has made several token concessions to california , including $ 69 million worth of power refunds and streamlining the federal permitting process for pipeline and power plant installation . it ' s is expected that ferc would most likely approve any transmission deal that davis could complete but with a list of conditions . some conditions might include bring the lines formally into the regional grid system as well as other elements to pave the way for more dramatic administrative actions in the west next year . the bush administration is opposed to price caps and believes in free market solutions . the administration is also considering whether it might be a good idea to privatize federally - owned assets such as bpa .",0

"Subject: gas prices vince - 1 . we can detect "" hoarding "" of pipeline capacity as an elevated basis against the actual inflow . 2 . we can detect "" market power "" by dissociating the seller from the buyer , distinguishing between the physical "" cost "" in gas to run the generators and the transmission cost in dollars , i . e . the basis . 3 . ( as you noted ) we can detect "" storage "" as the difference between inflow and consumption . it appears to me there are two time series needed for a straightforward model of gas prices : flow rates at interconnects ( from telemetry ) and spot - market prices . there is an elevated basis reflecting pipeline companies monopolizing capacity , as well as hoarding of capacity by contracts . the dynamics of gas prices reflect consumption demand changes due to changes in expectations for the weather , as well as their impact on two highly strategic behaviors : hoarding of pipeline capacity and storage of gas . we can "" calibrate "" the price elasticity of demands for consumption and storage , and the price elasticities of demand for transmission , as well as the extent of hoarding , from the two sets of numbers mentioned : flows and prices . what the basis trader needs to understand are the incentives , and disincentives , for storage and capacity - hoarding , in terms of the calibrated price - elasticities , and each of these are as - if exotic call options at the consumption hub . finally , flows are "" explained "" by the model , and can be imputed from prices if necessary , resulting in a purely stochastic model of the basis in terms of the weather . i believe the problem is quite tractable , and i would like to proceed with a model . clayton",0

"Subject: corrected : new update on ppi model for inflation book dear all , i followed up on the suggestions at the conference call as follows : - 1 ) use less data unfortunately , kicking out only 1990 makes the overall equation a lot less robust , in fact dramatically so , and so eliminates the possibility of using less data . the model tested was the rpi ( month + 15 ) ppi pre - empts the moves in rpi by about 8 months . the magnitude of the oscillations is also reduced . this shows that if we had more detail in our rpi forward curve , then the ppi model would reflect those peaks and humps adequately . conclusion i therefore propose that we use the model that incorporates rpi , rpi [ t + 15 ] and deviations of brent crude from long - term average . the new model is plotted below in burgundy and can be compared to the old ppi which is depicted in blue . the new model achieves the two main objectives of the ppi curve : it is significantly more robust and stable than the existing one , and it is considerably less sensitive to the input coefficients , which results in us having more confidence in our monthly p it was found that deviations of dated brent crude from the long - term average of $ 18 . 80 was the best form of the variable to use ( for predictions the brent forward curve produced by the global products group is used ) . the three new equations developed were : - pllu ( t ) = a . rpi ( t ) + b . rpi ( t + n ) + c . ( datedbrentcrude - 18 . 8 ) + constant , where n is 14 , 15 or 16 [ reddish curves ] r - squared approx 0 . 49 f - stat approx 32 the chart below shows what our projected pllu curve would be given this equation , and also the three best relations from before which were based upon current and future rpi : pllu ( t ) = a . rpi ( t ) + b . rpi ( t + n ) + constant , where n is 14 , 15 or 16 [ greenish curves ] r - squared approx 0 . 47 f - stat approx 45 comparison of models as you can see , the two equations differ in the very short - term and very long - term ; the inclusion of deviations of brent crude leads to short - term predictions of 3 . 0 % to 3 . 2 % over the next six months . the greenish curves predict pllu in the range of 2 . 5 % to 2 . 8 % over the next six months . the curves are then very similar until 2009 , when the models including crude break - away to the upside , relative to the falling rpi curve . the model based purely on rpi hugs the rpi curve much more closely in the longer term . this is only important to the extent that we have large positions beyond 2009 ( which we don ' t ) . suggestion what could be useful now is a differently - specified model designed to forecast only the next 3 months , using auto - regressive or auto - regressive error terms . this model would be far more accurate in the near - term , and we could include this information onto the front of this long - term model . this may be useful , despite the fact that most of our exposure is in future time buckets . back - testing all the models give similar visual and statistical performance over the data sample used ( based mainly on 1990 s "" new paradigm "" economy ) . hopefully we can discuss these and other points later in the tele - conference ; your ideas on this would be appreciated . regards , anjam x 35383",0

( although it will probably be clear from our discussions the model ( s ) we ? prefer ) . we therefore try and give ? as clear account as possible of the advantage and disadvantages of all the ? models so that the reader can make an informed choice as to the models which ? best suit their needs . in order to meet our objectives the ? book is divided into 11 chapters . ? in chapter 1 we give an overview of the fundamental principals needed to ? model and price energy derivatives which will underpin the remainder of the ? book . in addition to introducing ? the techniques that underlie the black - scholes modelling framework we outline ? the numerical techniques of trinomial trees and monte carlo simulation for ? derivative pricing , which are used throughout the book . in chapter 2 we discuss the ? analysis of spot energy prices . as ? well as analysing empirical price movements we propose a number of processes ? that can be used to model the prices . ? we look at the well - know process of geometric brownian motion as well as ? mean reversion , stochastic volatility and jump processes , discussing each and ? showing how they can be simulated and their parameters estimated . chapter 3 , written by vince ? kaminski , grant masson and ronnie chahal of enron corp . , discusses volatility ? estimation in energy commodity markets . ? this chapter builds on the previous one . it examines in detail the methods , ? merits and pitfalls of the volatility estimation process assuming different ? pricing models introduced in chapter 2 . ? examples from crude , gas , and electricity markets are used to illustrate ? the technical and interpretative aspects of calculating volatility . chapter 4 examines forward curves ? in the energy markets . although ? such curves are well understood and straight - forward in the most financial ? markets , the difficulty of storage in many energy markets leads to less well ? defined curves . in this chapter we ? describe forward price bounds for energy prices and the building of forward ? curves from market instruments . we ? outline the three main approaches which have been applied to building forward ? curves in energy markets ; the arbitrage approach , the econometric approach , and ? deriving analytical values by modelling underlying stochastic factors . chapter 5 presents an overview of ? structures found in the energy derivative markets and discusses their uses . examples of products analysed in this chapter include a variety of swaps , caps , floors and collars , as well as energy swaptions , compound options , asian options , barrier options , lookback options , and ladder options . chapter 6 investigates single and ? multi - factor models of the energy spot price and the pricing of some standard ? energy derivatives . closed form ? solutions for forward prices , forward volatilities , and european option prices ? both on the spot and forwards are derived and presented for all the models in ? this chapter including a three factor , stochastic convenience yield and interest rate model . chapter 7 shows how the prices of ? path dependent and american style options can be evaluated for the models in ? chapter 6 . simulation schemes are ? developed for the evaluation of european style options and applied to a variety ? of path dependent options . in order ? to price options which incorporate early exercise opportunities , a trinomial ? tree scheme is developed . this tree ? is built to be consistent with the observed forward curve and can be used to ? price exotic as well as standard european and american style options . chapter 8 describes a methodology ? for valuing energy options based on modelling the whole of the market observed ? forward curve . the approach results ? in a multi - factor model that is able to realistically capture the evolution of a wide range of energy forward curves . ? the user defined volatility structures can be of an extremely general ? form . closed - form solutions are ? developed for pricing standard european options , and efficient monte carlo ? schemes are presented for pricing exotic options . the chapter closes with a discussion of the valuation of american style options . chapter 9 focuses on the risk ? management of energy derivative positions . ? in this chapter we discuss the management of price risk for institutions ? that trade options or other derivatives and who are then faced with the problem ? of managing the risk through time . ? we begin with delta hedging a portfolio containing derivatives and look ? at extensions to gamma hedging ? illustrating the techniques using both spot and ? forward curve models . the general ? model presented in chapter 8 is ideally suited to multi - factor hedging of a ? portfolio of energy derivatives and this is also discussed . chapter 10 examines the key risk ? management concept of value at risk ( var ) applied to portfolios containing ? energy derivative products . after ? discussing the concept of the measure , we look at how the key inputs ?

placed sources in the government , the company has informed the madhav godbole panel that it would be meeting on may 11 . earlier reports had indicated that the discussions with the panel would take place on may 5 . according to sources , enron would be meeting the panel with representatives of its lenders and shareholders . the godbole committee , that studied the current power purchase agreement , has called for cancellation of the present tariff structure , renegotiation of the lng and shipping contract , removal of dollar denomination as far as fixed charges of the tariff is concerned , debt restructuring and the formation of a committee to renegotiate the power purchase agreement . these suggestions , it seems , may not be acceptable to enron . the maharashtra government accepted the report and asked the godbole committee to renegotiate . the committee has been given a month , s time to renegotiate on behalf of the state government with dpc for a new ppa . the committee has opined that since the lng facility of 5 mmpta is far in excess of what is required by the plant ( only 2 . 1 mmpta of which 1 . 8 mmpta is on take or pay ) , it should be separated into a distinct facility whose capital costs should not be reflected in the fuel charge , not as take or pay . it should instead be only in proportion to the fuel regassified for the power generation . using the entire allocated gas requires an unusually high plf . instead , the surplus gas can be sold to other players like petronet or enron , s own metgas . & it is important to distribute the cost over the entire capacity and not just the amount sold to the power plant , 8 says the committee . similarly , it has been suggested that enron could lease out the harbour facilities as a common facility to other lng importers . on the lng contract negotiated by enron for long - term supplies , it has said that since the lng market has witnessed great changes , particularly as far as prices are concerned , the power company should take advantage of spot buys and renegotiate the contract accordingly . -

led re - negotiation committee set - up to facilitate the restructuring of the power purchase agreement ( ppa ) signed between the us power major and the state government . officials of dabhol power company ( dpc ) , a subsidiary of enron , alongwith their team of shareholders and lenders will arrive here on may 11 for talks with the nine - member godbole panel . though the dpc spokesperson was reluctant to give a confirmation , a key mantralaya official told the times of india that the team had expressed willingness for talks with the experts committee in a bid to end the imbroglio . enron ' s response is viewed as a welcome development to amicably resolve the controversy which had been raging for the last few weeks , with the board of directors of enron authorising its india md k wade cline to serve a termination notice to mseb . the state government , on its part , too adopted a confrontational position by slapping a rs 401 crore rebate charge on dpc for defaulting on power supply . however , the sudden change of heart by the enron management is largely attributed to the stand taken by its local lenders led by industrial development bank of india ( idbi ) which had recently opposed the move to pull out of the project . this was in contradiction to the stand taken by the foreign lenders of the dpc who were in favour of slamming the brakes on disbursement of funds to dpc . the congress - led democratic front government had publicly declared that it would impress upon the enron management to renegotiate the ppa as scrapping the project would not be in the interest of both the parties . last week , the state government constituted a nine - member panel of experts under former bureaucrat madhav godbole . godbole had written to the dpc management inviting it for talks to re - negotiate the ppa on may 5 . for the delayed response from enron , the meeting has been rescheduled to may 11 . the issues which would be debated at the meeting include the separation of the lng facility from the power plant , renegotiating lng supply and shipping agreements , redefining the dpc tariff and to convert it into a two - part tariff . the godbole panel will bargain hard for removal of dollar denomination in the fixed charge component and to allow the maharashtra government to sell power to third parties . - - - - - - -

arrival of its team from houston and other parts of the world . however , the company has ultimately decided to meet the godbole committee on may 11 . dpc spokesman jimmy mogal said : & we confirm that dpc has been invited to meet the recently formed negotiating committee . as a matter of courtesy , we have agreed to meet them next week . since the purpose of our meeting is to hear out the committee and understand their thoughts , we will not present any proposals . 8 & while we have constantly maintained that we are open to a dialogue towards resolving issues , this meeting in no manner be construed as an open offer from dpc to renegotiate the terms of the contract . furthermore , the published terms report do not represent an acceptable basis for further discussions , 8 he added . sources said enron corp chairman kenneth lay is likely to meet former chief minister sharad pawar to find an acceptable solution for the ongoing crisis before the may 11 meet . mr lay told the foreign news agency on wednesday that the enron corp has no immediate plans to sell its stake in the troubled $ 2 . 9 -

( they can be by regional wholesale prices as well . ) ege establishes if the target utility has changed unit commitment routines significantly in recent years . ege is based upon uniquely timely actual hourly operating data . ege is now updated for the 4 th quarter 2000 ( through december 31 , 2000 ) . ege lst quarter 2000 ( through march 31 , 2001 ) will be available approximately june 15 , 2001 . ege also compares and ranks generating units ' commitment and dispatch with that of similar units operated by the target utility ( as well as other regional generators ) . some utilities operate a group of economically marginal units at the half - load level for lengthy time periods ( without an apparent reliability basis ) , splitting the limited economic demand for power among the units . other ege supporting data : i . planned maintenance schedule ( where indicated ) ; j . actual maximum generating capacity ; k . actual minimum generating capacity ( actual maximums and minimums can differ significantly from government - reported values ) ; l . average heat rate in the full - load range ; and m . average heat rate in the three - quarter - load range . with respect to a generating units ' average heat rate in the half - load , three - quarter - load and full - load ranges , it can be instructive to rank these relative to similar generating units within a region . it can also be of interest to identify significant seasonal variations in average heat rates and maximum capacities , and changes in recent years in these parameters . the real - world example of allegheny energy allegheny energy can serve as a case study to illustrate the application of ege . in the 4 th quarter 2000 , for instance , one high - cost generating unit was started virtually every weekday morning ( 52 times ) and committed for the whole day ( in all but two cases ) . arguably , there are power products that could substitute for this routine ( in part at least ) at a profit to the seller of the product and allegheny energy . another high - cost allegheny energy generating unit was started virtually every weekend during the autumn ( nine times ) and committed for most of the coming week . at another plant , two high - cost units were operated too often in the expensive half - load range ( some 550 hours ) and three - quarter - load range ( another 400 to 600 hours ) ; they were seldom called upon to run at higher levels . again , there are power products that that address these practices and might appeal to allegheny energy . offering of energy leader consulting ( elc ) ege is a procedure , not a software package or data base . elc believes this format is more effective in arming clients with the information they need to act upon profit opportunities . elc transfers its "" knowledge "" about the ege procedure and the supporting data methods in a straight - forward four - step process : 1 . enron would select one to three target utilities . 2 . elc would perform the ege procedure on the target utilities . 3 . employing this real - world analysis as a pedagogic tool , elc , in a one - day seminar with enron personnel , would instruct how to perform the procedure in the future ( without the assistance of elc ) . 4 . optionally , elc would provide ege supporting data , quarterly , to enron . the basic ege supporting data set is national including all generating units under the continuous emission monitoring program ( virtually all fossil fuel units ) . parameters that are incorporated , and the data set format , will be specified upon request . custom modifications will be considered . steven a . mitnick chief executive officer energy leader consulting 4807 41 st street , nw washington , dc 20016 ( 202 ) 997 - 0924 voice ( 202 ) 537 - 0906 fax smitnick @ energyleader . com",0

( by taking demand from our competitors ) . i believe , at the moment , there are no bandwidth exchanges that allow "" combinatorial "" bids . if we are the first one to do it , we might improve our sale channel and gain some market share . ( note : auction - > one seller and many buyers : exchange - > many sellers and many buyers . ) moreover , i think auctioning the unsold bandwidth will not hurt us because we cannot sell them anyway . in addition , we ourselves can be a dummy bidder in the system and bid in the auction . if the current wining bid is too low , we can just over - bid it and keep the product . this way , we can indirectly put a reserve price on the products . let ' s meet sometime in the first week of january . - chonawee",0

"Subject: power trading hi folks : very glad to hear about the new developments . just to recap what we discussed this morning about different things you need to look into to set up trading operations and the contacts : 1 . licence to trade : regulatory people : i guess you know about this part better than me . 2 . trading & risk mgmt : global risk mgmt oversight : john sherrif in london has the overall responsibility outside western hemisphere . research group can help with the structuring models used for trading . 3 . risk conrols : before trading group is operational , it needs to get the authorization from the board of directors of enron along with total position limits and possibly value @ risk limits . these limits are typically by commodity type and by region . risk assessment & control ( rac ) under rick buy performs the internal control function ensuring that the businesses adhere to these trading limits . ted murphy is the vp in rac overseeing the trading operations . the value @ risk models come from the research group , but day - to - day monitoring of the numbers is done by ted ' s group . 4 . credit risk : a credit reserve number is computed for each deal ( again , the models are created by research ) and is transferred to the credit group under bill bradford ( also in rac ) . this is basically like buying insurance from the corp . , so that if there is a couterparty default , the loss is covered by the reserve pool of the credit dept . 5 . legal : the name i was given is alan aronowitz for legal help . 6 . back office : initially can survive with excel spreadsheets . you should contact the it though when the plans finalize to talk about systems . australia is the most recent place where we set up the trading operations . you can talk to paul quilky , the trader there to talk about these issues ( mention to him that grant masson in research gave his name ) . barry pierce in london was incharge of back office at the begin there . i can coordinate for talking with people next week . give me a call monday if possible . i hadn ' t the time to search for the presentation stuff today . will do it next week . krishna .",0

"Subject: the storage revolution has begun network world fusion focus : amy larsen decarlo on storage in the enterprise today ' s focus : the storage revolution has begun 03 / 07 / 00 dear wincenty kaminski , today ' s focus : the storage revolution has begun by amy larsen decarlo believe the hype . we are in the middle of a storage revolution . virtually overnight , businesses have gone from storing gigabytes to terabytes of data , and the number of users accessing that information is skyrocketing . the subsequent requirements are forcing companies to rethink their storage strategies and to recognize the importance of storage management in the equation of efficient information delivery . it isn , t just the volume of data or the higher scalability demands that are changing how businesses handle storage . the premium that companies place on much of their enterprise information is having a profound effect on their storage requirements . businesses demand fault - tolerant storage systems that deliver swift and reliable data access to their employees , suppliers and customers . but given the fact that hard disk capacity requirements , on average , double every 12 months , while processor speeds double every 18 months , companies are left with a quandary : how can they manage the proliferation of stored information efficiently enough to compensate for the differential between capacity requirements and processor speeds ? the simple answer to this question is to institute a well - executed storage management plan that anticipates capacity requirements in advance and leverages the best technologies and techniques to support those needs . bear in mind that the majority of storage costs come not from the equipment but from the implementation and support of those systems . there are several ways to efficiently manage storage . one of the best routes is consolidation that is , pooling resources and managing storage as a system , as opposed to a decentralized collection of file servers . this may sound like a throwback to an earlier era , when enterprise storage resided on mainframes . but it , s actually a progressive step , as the consolidation has more to do with centralizing the planning , management , and ongoing support of storage systems than it does with the physical location of the files . next , it is important to recognize that not all information is equally important to the organization . consequently , storage requirements vary by business application . as in all areas of it , it is important to make storage implementation decisions based on business needs . businesses trying to more efficiently manage storage are looking for alternatives to the distributed file server storage model . they want to speed access to stored files and remove bandwidth - intensive backup and recovery operations from the lan . network - attached storage ( nas ) supplies it professionals with one answer , giving workstations and servers a way to gain direct access to stored data . nas devices , which have been widely available for years , are optimized to process i / o transactions . though they promise better performance , they don , t remove backups from the transport network . instead , they supply a relatively easy - to - deploy solution to cross - platform storage problems for most heterogeneous environments . many consider storage - area networks ( san ) to be the best long - term answer to current and future storage challenges . because sans are designed with a topology separate from the corporate data network , they alleviate many of the availability and performance issues associated with more traditional storage models . yet , given the early deployment stage most companies are still in , many of those capabilities are still largely untested in a production environment . this newsletter will examine how , through effective storage management , it professionals can reduce support costs and improve service delivery to their customers . this newsletter will not focus on items like the least expensive tape drive or the fast tape library . instead , it will look at how businesses can reduce inefficiencies and leverage emerging technologies to resolve their particular storage application issues . ultimately , the goal is to identify storage technology options and practices that work in real - world environments . to contact amy larsen decarlo : - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - amy larsen decarlo is an analyst with enterprise management associates in boulder , colo . , ( http : / / www . . com ) , a leading analyst and market research firm focusing exclusively on all aspects of enterprise management . she focuses on storage management , application management , and security . in her position , she oversees market research and contributes to custom project work in her focal coverage areas . prior to joining ema , amy spent five years covering enterprise management for industry trade magazines , including informationweek and data communications . she can be reached at mailto : decarlo @ . com for related links - - click here for network world ' s home page : http : / / www . nwfusion . com the national storage industry consortium ( nsic ) http : / / www . nsic . org the distributed management task force ( dmtf ) http : / / www . dmtf . org storage systems standards working group of the ieee http : / / www . ssswg . org the ietf http : / / www . ietf . org subscription services to subscribe or unsubscribe to any network world e - mail newsletters , go to : to change your email address , go to : subscription questions ?

"Subject: pricing credit on thousands of names all - our challenge for the next few months is to build an automated system to provide differential pricing on thousands of credits [ 5 , 000 by year - end ] . most of these credits will be illiquid in terms of market price information , making the challenge harder , and the end result more important in terms of competitive pricing advantage . what we need is an overall strategy for how we plan to achieve this from the quantitative perspective . currently we have several models for credit pricing either in use or under development : fmc model ( default probability approach ) . using bloomberg ' s fair market ( par yield ) curves , probabilities are generated from the risky - libor , then default / bankruptcy swap prices computed using expectation methodology . fmc model ( credit spread approach ) . using the fmcs , then directly taking the libor credit spread at each tenor , adjusting for basis and compounding differences . bond model ( fmc approach ) . taking the fmcs as benchmark curves , the model regresses the input bonds ( specific to a name ) on the two best fitting benchmarks . the result is a zero yield curve with the same shape as the fmcs , but with the level tweaked for the specific issuer . prices are then generated using both spread and probability approaches . under testing . bond model ( spline approach ) . taking only the bonds specific to an issuer , the model fits an exponential cubic spline to the zero - coupon price curve , then builds a zero yield curve from this . under testing . market prices . for certain liquid names , or sectors / ratings , cds market prices are used , then recovery and event discount used to get bankruptcy swap prices . kmv . using expected default frequencies ( edfs ) from the kmv model and database , we will build a model to price default swaps , making appropriate risk adjustments . kmv is being installed now , so model will be worked on next . each of these models returns a price ( credit default and bankruptcy ) , and the accuracy of the price depends on many factors - liquidity and regulatory differences between bond and cds markets , recovery assumptions , risk premia , capital charges , etc . the aim will be to accurately price as many liquid names as possible , based upon these models , then use these prices , alongside other financial information , as the backbone to a full automated pricing system . our inputs to the proposed pricing system for a specific name are model and market prices for all issuers , alongside name - specific ' soft ' data from credit reports and financial statements . if the credit is liquid enough , a price will be generated from their own information only . otherwise , the credit will be mapped onto a subset of liquid credits , with financial information and historical price movements providing the mapping and weights . the model price will then be periodically adjusted to align itself with market ( or trader ) prices , and this adjustment will feed back into the weighting and mapping composition . in loose terms , we could think of the system price for an illiquid credit as being a weighted average of liquid market prices ( bonds , equities , default swaps ) , where the weightings are calibrated using credit analysis , financial ratios , etc . the key steps to implementing such a system will be : establishing what exactly we want to ' predict ' - is it a price , a rating , a probability , or a score ? we will need a clean market history to calibrate to , which we only really have for ratings . we will then need to develop a mapping from rating / score to price . getting and cleaning the historical financial and credit data required to calibrate the model . building the mechanics of the model , ie , the calibration methodology . neural nets / fuzzy logic seem the obvious candidates , but which exact methods and software packages to use ? determining an automated methodology for mapping names with limited information into the model . getting the "" true "" market price , in order to feed back an error . at present such a price exists for very few credits . allocating resources to the development . mckinsey claimed such a system would take 6 - 10 man - months to develop . further ideas or comments are requested , as we need to develop our strategy asap . the model description above is fairly vague , as we don ' t yet have the knowledge needed to fill in the specific details . further help will be especially required on this if we are to continue to move at ' internet speed ' . regards ben",0

"Subject: re : choosing the riskfree rate dear all , i completeley agree with ben that treasuries are the most liquid and reliable benchmarks . i also think that fmas have their own advantages and disadvantages . however , it looks like it would be very difficult for us to avoid using libor as benchmark - at least to price anything related to capital markets ( for example , credit default swaps ) . our prices will always be different from that on capital markets if we use benchmarks different from the market . as a half - way solution we can have different benchmarks - for example , use anything , that we decide is closest to risk - free , to value products significantly different from that priced on capital markets , and libor for everything priced on capital markets . we can adjust by manipulating other coefficients ( event , liquidity , recovery ) for our purposes , but it looks like benchmark should be libor . to avoid negative default probabilites ( for highly rated reference entities ) we can add cost fo repo and haircuts ( as all bankers do ) . let us continue our discussion on this . slava benjamin parsons 13 / 03 / 2000 20 : 07 to : bryan seyfried / lon / ect @ ect , martin mcdermott / lon / ect @ ect , viacheslav danilov / lon / ect @ ect , stuart ffoulkes / lon / ect @ ect , eklavya sareen / lon / ect @ ect , tomas valnek / lon / ect @ ect , john metzler / lon / ect @ ect , simon brooks / lon / ect @ ect , konstantin malinovski / lon / ect @ ect cc : vasant shanbhogue / hou / ect @ ect , vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect , steven leppard / lon / ect @ ect , jitendra patel / lon / ect @ ect , william s bradford / hou / ect @ ect , harry arora / hou / ect @ ect subject : choosing the riskfree rate dear all , following on from the discussions had with vince et al a few weeks ago , regarding the problems inherent in using treasuries as our benchmark riskfree curve , i ' ve written the attached short document . my preliminary conclusions are as follows : recent turmoil in the treasury market mostly hit 10 and 30 - year bonds . treasuries are still the most liquid curve , and that used by banks for benchmarking risky debt . there is a considerable a liquidity / scarcity premium inherent within the corporate - treasury spread , which we are not taking into account . more accurate measurement of this premium should allow us to calculate bankruptcy prices based on treasuries , which are consistent with the market . all further comments are welcome of course . regards ben",0

"Subject: independent variables for ene regressions brad , as we discussed , it ' s very difficult to find drivers of the ene stock ' s behaviours . we investigated about 30 comparable stocks , 10 capital market indices , and three energy commodity indices . regular regressions as well as regressions with different legs and leads were performed . some variables show significant correlated with ene stock during particular time periods , but most of those correlation disappears when we tested them over different or longer time periods . only two variables , s & p utility index ( spxu ) and dow jones utility index ( util ) , show stable and significant relationship with ene stock ( a summary of these relationship can be found in the attached file "" outputsummary "" ) . but as you can see , the r 2 are below 30 % . also , the ? durbin - watson statistics tell us to be careful about autocorrelation . ? basically , the regression analysis so far confirms our original opinion - - ? it ' s hard , if not impossible , to find out any real driver of the ene stock . ? after enron added new core business several month ago , the stock behaved more ? or less like a tele _ comm stock , which suggests that enron stock has entered ? into a new phase . to capture , at least trying to capture , its ? characteristics in the new phase , we need a lit bit more time to cumulate the ? market date . ? ? let me know if you need me investigate more variables or you come up with ? some new thoughts . ? ? ? ? vincent ? ?",0

"Subject: energy leader consulting generation evaluator ( ege ) shirley : as requested , herein is information regarding the meeting with vince kaminski . the presentation on the ege tool ' s applications and the allegheny energy case study is timed to take an hour . if the meeting is most conveniently scheduled for tuesday , may 29 , might i request it be set for late afternoon ( as my other appointments are the next day ) . and , as vince will recall , i was co - leader of the energy consulting business of phb hagler bailly , and developer of the ramp up , real time , 75 check and electric strategy tools . presently , i am ceo of energy leader consulting ( elc ) . background the u . s . power generation industry has become increasingly efficient in recent years . rapidly growing new entrants seek profit maximization aggressively . utilities , who still control most power plants , endeavor to adopt the entrants ' methods . yet , inefficiency among many utilities remains widespread . utility inefficiency arises from adherence to decades - old habits and in unit commitment and dispatch and planned maintenance scheduling . many utilities , notwithstanding the industry - wide trend towards profit maximization , cling to ingrained routines . inefficiency can also arise from the diseconomies of small scale . a utility may operate a relatively small system ( fewer than a dozen plants ) . a small system lacks portfolio diversification and perspective in its focus on its regulated customers , playing the wholesale market at the margin . for a variety of reasons , utilities are reluctant to cut back the starts of their generating units , let alone shut down any ( even temporarily or seasonally ) . economically inefficient units continue to be committed , week after week , and run in the half - load range . ege objectives ege identifies and assesses generating units of a utility with questionable commitment routines . taking into account transmission and reliability factors , the procedure points towards profit opportunities that may be exploited by another industry participant . i . an industry participant can use ege as a basis for a medium or long - term wholesale power transaction with a utility ; or to price wholesale power more aggressively , to take market share from the utility ( i . e . , compel changes in unit commitment habits ) . ii . an industry participant can use ege to spot and quantify efficiencies that would come from a merger or acquisition . iii . a power plant developer can use ege to estimate the incremental value a new plant will enjoy when the target utility ' s unit commitment routines inevitably become rationalized . specific ege concepts ege reduces and analyses the extraordinary but unwieldy continuous emission monitoring data base intelligently focusing on profit opportunities . it produces indicative statistics such as : a . the frequency distribution of starts per week ; b . the frequency distribution of starts by day / 15 - minute segment during the week ; c . the frequency distribution of load level ; d . the frequency distribution of hours of operation per start ; e . average heat rate and approximate fully - allocated cost in the half - load range ; f . average ramp rate from the half - load range ; g . the frequency distribution of unused connected capacity during the highest demand hours ; and h . forced - off maintenance outage rate ( where indicated ) . indicative statistics are generally aggregated by month / year ; in some cases , by temperature range . ( they can be by regional wholesale prices as well . ) ege establishes if the target utility has changed unit commitment routines significantly in recent years . ege is based upon uniquely timely actual hourly operating data . ege is now updated for the 4 th quarter 2000 ( through december 31 , 2000 ) . ege lst quarter 2000 ( through march 31 , 2001 ) will be available approximately june 15 , 2001 . ege also compares and ranks generating units ' commitment and dispatch with that of similar units operated by the target utility ( as well as other regional generators ) . some utilities operate a group of economically marginal units at the half - load level for lengthy time periods ( without an apparent reliability basis ) , splitting the limited economic demand for power among the units . other ege supporting data : i . planned maintenance schedule ( where indicated ) ; j . actual maximum generating capacity ; k . actual minimum generating capacity ( actual maximums and minimums can differ significantly from government - reported values ) ; l . average heat rate in the full - load range ; and m . average heat rate in the three - quarter - load range . with respect to a generating units ' average heat rate in the half - load , three - quarter - load and full - load ranges , it can be instructive to rank these relative to similar generating units within a region . it can also be of interest to identify significant seasonal variations in average heat rates and maximum capacities , and changes in recent years in these parameters . the real - world example of allegheny energy allegheny energy can serve as a case study to illustrate the application of ege . in the 4 th quarter 2000 , for instance , one high - cost generating unit was started virtually every weekday morning ( 52 times ) and committed for the whole day ( in all but two cases ) . arguably , there are power products that could substitute for this routine ( in part at least ) at a profit to the seller of the product and allegheny energy . another high - cost allegheny energy generating unit was started virtually every weekend during the autumn ( nine times ) and committed for most of the coming week . at another plant , two high - cost units were operated too often in the expensive half - load range ( some 550 hours ) and three - quarter - load range ( another 400 to 600 hours ) ; they were seldom called upon to run at higher levels . again , there are power products that that address these practices and might appeal to allegheny energy . offering of energy leader consulting ( elc ) ege is a procedure , not a software package or data base . elc believes this format is more effective in arming clients with the information they need to act upon profit opportunities . elc transfers its "" knowledge "" about the ege procedure and the supporting data methods in a straight - forward four - step process : 1 . enron would select one to three target utilities . 2 . elc would perform the ege procedure on the target utilities . 3 . employing this real - world analysis as a pedagogic tool , elc , in a one - day seminar with enron personnel , would instruct how to perform the procedure in the future ( without the assistance of elc ) . 4 . optionally , elc would provide ege supporting data , quarterly , to enron . the basic ege supporting data set is national including all generating units under the continuous emission monitoring program ( virtually all fossil fuel units ) . parameters that are incorporated , and the data set format , will be specified upon request . custom modifications will be considered . steven a . mitnick chief executive officer energy leader consulting 4807 41 st street , nw washington , dc 20016 ( 202 ) 997 - 0924 voice ( 202 ) 537 - 0906 fax smitnick @ energyleader . com",0

"Subject: auctions with an incumbent ' s right of first refusal shelley , my colleague , clayton vernon , who has a background in economics , wrote a short summary of arguments against the rofr . we are working on the second approach to the problem : we try to come up with a numerical estimate of the value of this option . the fact that an incumbent shipper has this option has distributional consequences : he has something of value he never paid for . having a numerical estimate of the value of this option could help to argue against it . the value of such an option is case specific ; so we shall rather produce a template you can use for valuation case by case . vince kaminski - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - forwarded by vince j kaminski / hou / ect on 01 / 20 / 2000 08 : 34 am - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - clayton vernon @ enron 01 / 20 / 2000 08 : 29 am to : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect cc : stinson gibner / hou / ect @ ect , zlu / hou / ect @ ect subject : auctions with an incumbent ' s right of first refusal vince - here is an essay on the issue you are discussing : the adverse economic impact of "" rights of first refusal "" an option to "" first refuse "" to match a competitor ' s offer is a restraint of free trade and an impediment to efficiency in the marketplace . this economic conclusion is unambiguous . if an "" incumbent "" has the right to match an offer made by a competitor , for an item or service of value , then few competitors will invest the time and expense necessary to prepare and submit offers , those offers will be lower than they would have been otherwise , and the contract will often be awarded to an inefficient incumbent instead of a more efficient challenger . in a traditional auction , where all bids are sealed and the item up for auction is awarded to the highest bidder , we can safely predict the item will be awarded to the bidder who values it the most , at a price reflecting the full value of the item up for auction . this is the efficient result in a market economy , because the financing of the high bid reflects resources freely allocated to the high bidder . if the auction has open bids , we can again safely predict the item to be awarded to the correct bidder , albeit at a slightly lower price to the donor of the item since the bidder with the highest valuation can simply increment by an infinitesimal amount the second - highest valuation . now , in a modified auction , where an incumbent bidder has the right to match the highest bid and retain the item for himself , each competing bidder must justify his own due diligence and bid preparation expenses against the following , and likely , scenario : the incumbent does not spend himself for due diligence , but instead uses these savings to help finance his matching the top bid from a competitor . simply put , the incumbent with a "" right of first refusal "" can be safely predicted to simply match their competitor ' s bid by "" rule of thumb . "" but the incumbent ' s valuation of the item up for auction can be less than the valuation of the competitor , by the amount of the due diligence and administrative expenses . and , the incumbent firm expropriates the expertise of his competitors , not only in their valuations themselves , a nontrivial financial exercise , but in any operational details required to be submitted along with the bid . furthermore , in an esoteric concept known as the "" winner ' s curse , "" a bidder realizes that if his bid actually prevails , if the incumbent fails to match it , he almost certainly overbid . given this , most competitors will not even bother to bid in an auction when an incumbent has the right of first refusal , and those that submit a bid do not rationally invest the time , expense and expertise necessary ; they may just "" fire off "" a "" low - ball "" bid . after all , in almost every conceivable "" state of the world "" arising from the auction the competitors expect to lose money . so , the incumbent almost always retains the contract at a below - market price , despite the incumbent not necessarily placing the highest value on the contract because the incumbent cannot put the contract to its most efficient use .",0

"Subject: alliance info alert - ferc reporting attached is a summary of recent ferc activities ( pdf file ) and the weekly alliance express . the following is a summary of the most recent ferc meeting , followed by a listing of the most recent ferc filings . in a brief meeting yesterday , ferc approved a final rule adopting section 203 merger filing requirements , generally as proposed , and extended the existing nyiso bid cap in its non - spinning reserves market and the related mandatory bidding requirement until such time that the new york market can be determined to be "" workably competitive . "" at the same time , ferc ordered a technical conference to explore changes to the nyiso reserves market , and urged market participants to reach a consensus on a preferred solution , next steps , and deadlines for resolution / implementation . additional details are provided below . ferc updates , streamlines merger filing process ferc unanimously approved its proposed order revising the reporting requirements for mergers . however , comm . hebert did so with reservations , as discussed below . commission staff stated that the order closely follows the notice of proposed rulemaking previously issued , but adds more detail and more certainty to the industry . staff stated that the order is improved over the proposed rule because it includes exemptions from reporting for certain entities and it more precisely defines geographical areas and products . according to ferc , the draft order : - revises the commission ' s filing requirements to reflect existing merger policy based on ferc ' s 1996 merger policy guidelines ; - provides more detail for the industry in developing competitive market analyses . the rule continues the existing screening process for mergers with potential horizontal competitive concerns . in addition , the rule establishes informational requirements for vertical competitive analyses . - streamlines filing requirements for transactions that do not raise competitive concerns ; and - reduces the industry ' s regulatory burden by eliminating outdated filing requirements . the rule will take effect 60 days after its publication in the federal register . commissioner reaction : comm . hebert expressed reservations that , although he was voting for the rule , ferc should not be duplicating the department of justice ( doj ) and the federal trade commission ( ftc ) market concentration analyses and that ferc should follow the lead of anti - trust enforcement officials , who could also analyze mergers faster and more confidentially . he also stated that ferc should review the filings after the doj or the ftc review them , not before , and that there should be a definite time frame for review . hebert did mention that he was pleased that rtos and the disposition of transmission assets would be exempt , that ancillary services would be considered as a separate product and that the final rule opens the door for alternative market analysis . comm . breathitt supported the final rule , stating that it should expedite the approval process and that the regulatory burden should be eased due to the fact that older , irrelevant requirements have been dropped . she indicated that the final rule balanced the need for speedy decisions while protecting the public interest by stating that the process will be "" efficient yet sufficient "" . the commissioner said that she was pleased the final rule addressed technical issues such as computer modeling as well as retail competition and one of her main concerns , confidentiality . comm . massey fully supported the final rule , emphasizing that it would improve response time , lessen the need to ask for more data and allow the industry to better predict commission actions . like commissioner breathitt , massey was pleased that the order will allow market modeling analysis that will better enable ferc to evaluate market concentration and allow applicants to point to other factors when concentration appears too high . massey also stated that the new rule includes the ability to address many of ferc ' s concerns , such as future mergers when they occur in succession , retail competition , mitigation by the enlargement of markets through rtos and analysis of ancillary services . in sum , he averred that the order will provide ferc with the tools it needs for accurate analysis , while taking into consideration the rapid changes in the industry . chairman hoecker also voiced his support and noted that he felt that this was a very important rule . in response to comm . hebert , chairman hoecker said that the doj and ftc actually wait for ferc ' s report before issuing their own , that the anti - trust enforcement agencies rely on ferc ' s expertise when reviewing mergers in the electric and gas industries . there is a major positive connection between industry consolidation and rtos and that both are reconfiguring the markets and effect how they work , he noted . because the rtos enlarge the size of the subject market , he indicated , rtos will help to preserve competition . therefore , more and larger rtos should allow for more mergers , he said . the chairman cautioned that this is not to imply that joining an rto is a requirement for a merger , but that it would certainly be viewed favorably . nyiso bid caps extended until ancillary service market shown to be workably competitive in a 3 - 1 decision , with comm . hebert dissenting , ferc extended the existing nyiso bid cap in its non - spinning reserves market and the related mandatory bidding requirement until such time as that market can be determined to be "" workably competitive . "" at the same time , ferc ordered a technical conference to explore changes to the nyiso reserves market , and urged market participants to reach a consensus on a preferred solution , next steps , and deadlines for resolution / implementation . in so doing , ferc rejected certain aspects of nyiso ' s september 1 and 8 , 2000 compliance filing , submitted pursuant to its may 31 , 2000 order imposing a temporary bid cap through october 31 . the iso ' s efforts to correct market flaws identified in the order and further strengthen market performance had not yet satisfied the commission ' s directives , ferc concluded . ferc found that while nyiso has achieved solid progress in certain areas , overall the iso has not shown sufficient improvement to warrant raising and then gradually lifting the temporary bid cap in the iso ' s non - spinning reserve market by april 2001 , as the iso requested . commissioner reaction : comms . hoecker , massey and breathitt all endorsed the order as an "" imperfect solution , "" yet a pragmatic approach toward resolving the flaws plaguing the iso ' s market . comm . hebert faulted the commission for squandering an opportunity to incentivize additional supply by lifting the price controls . hoecker and breathitt joined hebert in expressing disappointment in the lack of the iso ' s progress , but contended that significant outstanding issues must be resolved before the bid cap can be lifted . in other action , ferc accepted nyiso ' s and nepool ' s proposed emergency energy transaction agreement , allowing nyiso and iso - ne to provide emergency service to each other ( ero 0 - 3638 - 000 ) ; stricken items included cae - 16 ( nepool ' s 64 th agreement amendment proposing the elimination of in service and instituting new rules governing certain import transactions ( ero 0 - 3577 - 000 ) ) . = = recent ferc filings = = ( 1 ) rto developments * iso ne submitted its changes to market rule 17 , market monitoring , reporting and market power mitigation , in compliance with the commission ' s july 26 , 2000 order . erol - 368 - 000 . filed november 1 , 2000 . * iso ne submitted its special interim market rule in compliance with the commission ' s july 26 , 2000 order . ero 0 - 369 - 000 . filed november 1 , 2000 . * illinois industrial energy consumers filed to intervene regarding dynegy ' s filing to request approval for the withdrawal of the illinois power co . from the miso . erol - 123 - 000 . filed november 6 , 2000 . * el segundo power filed a motion "" requesting order on request for rehearing by date certain "" in complaint that challenges the ca iso ' s ability to set the rates for the energy that it can compel generators to produce for reliability under its standard form contract . ero 0 - 1830 - 001 . filed november 3 , 2000 . * ca iso filed an unbundled grid management charge in order to recover its administrative and operating costs . erol - 313 - 000 . comments due by november 22 , 2000 . * nepool submitted supplemental information related to its filing of the sixty - fourth agreement amending the nepool agreement , which proposed the elimination of in service . ero 0 - 3577 - 000 . comments due by november 14 , 2000 .

"Subject: ees operational risk per our conversation , here is the model that i have for simon . the notes that i gave you were from some work i did back in september as i was looking for volume numbers . the notes show what drives the final cash flow numbers . briefly , the issue surrounds exactly what is meant by nonmarket and noncredit risk . ideally , this would be anything that effects npv of the deal . however , i think that we should limit ourselves to those things that effect the time and amount of the eam volumes . even here , such a problem set is quite large . if you glance at the spreadsheet model , you will notice that there exists a large number of possible items that effect the eam volumes . if we are to do this rigorously , then it is necessary to tear apart ees ' s business model , and although such an attempt to do so would be noble , the scope of such an excercise may be too large . we need a clear definition of ees operational risk . briefly , from the ees deals that i have looked at , two things drive their profit : a long term bet that power prices will go down , and that we can improve the facility through various enhancements . each of these may be gleaned from the spreadsheet , as well as the assumptions regarding the funding of the facility improvements and so on . 95 % of the savings is assumed to come from power , and 5 % from gas . ( the effeciency gain may not be explicitly given ) . if we have data that show the realized efficiency gains , then it would be simple [ in principle ] to determine a distribution , and hence a distribution of eam volumes , npv ' s , etc . at this time , i understand that rac has determined some of the realized efficiency gains , but my knowledge is quite sketchy . jay hachen may have more info . if i get a chance , i will try to see if i can do a "" proof of concept "" excercise , but i have a late january deadline on something else . another point : even if we are successful in doing this for the spreadsheet model , ees has chosen to book things differently . i do not have a thorough understanding of their it systems , but at least in principle , if we can do this for the spreadsheet model , then we can do it in their it environment ( data are data are data ) . they may book efficiency gains through improvement type , such as gains due to compressors , chillers , boilers , etc . if this is indeed the case , then we need to have distributions for each type of improvement . if we are successful on the spreadsheet and not successful with their it systems , then the other alternative is to build our own reporting system . it would be similar to a database where the recordsets are replaced by excel workbooks . it can be constructed in such a way as to enable us to run simulations and queries , but this would probably take me about five or six weeks . finally , don hawkins does operational audits for enron ' s physical assets . he sends out teams to audit our pipelines and strategic assets . i don ' t think that he does it for ees , but you might want to give him a call anyway . - kevin k . ps : the ees lunch meeting has been moved to wednesdays . jay hachen will know more .",0

"Subject: california 1 / 17 / 01 pt . ii one of the issues we have been following with respect to the california power crisis concerns the role of prospective broader federal involvement in the issue post - inauguration . in the last two days , we have seen two signals suggesting that the bush administration will not significantly deviate from the "" broker "" role played by the clinton white house : 1 . in his confirmation hearing this morning , treasury secretary - designate o ' neill cautioned that "" it is not clear that us intervention is needed in california "" and that the "" governor must be the first line of defense . "" 2 . a source close to bush economic advisor larry lindsey reported to us yesterday that "" there was little that the federal government could do specifically to help , beyond focusing on national issues ( increased production , transmission capacity etc . ) . "" of course , the bush treasury officials are likely to be more cautious with respect to intervention than the energy team , as was true with the clinton administration . yet lindsey in particular is unlikely to deviate far from the official bush view at this stage . further guidance should be forthcoming with respect to this issue from energy secretary - designate spence abraham ' s testimony tomorrow .",0

"" however , we are very skinny on w staff here ( like christian is our one & only ) , and christian is doing much work for both the power & weather business . i was thinking that we could run with our initial idea of having mike roberts come to sydney . there is still time before the olympics ! will keep you posted on quentin . regards raymond vince j kaminski @ ect 08 / 08 / 2000 06 : 30 am to : paul quilkey / enron _ development @ enron _ development , raymond yeow / enron _ development @ enron _ development cc : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect , grant masson / hou / ect @ ect subject : thank you paul & raymond , it took more than a few days to catch up after i came back from australia . there are few things i would like to bring up to your attention . first of all , i would like to thank you for your hospitality . i learned a lot about the australian markets and was greatly impressed with the quality of the people at the sydney office . 1 . the resume you sent to me and grant looks quite good . i think it makes sense to interview this person and we can help you with a phone interview . 2 . i have received another resume that looks very promising . i am very interested in this guy and would be ready to bring him over to the states where we lack desperately technical talent . can you help us by interviewing him in sydney ? the main determination i need from you is whether he can function in a company like enron . as any good academic he sent his resume in a ps format and i shall fax you a copy in case you don ' t have a postscript reader on your system . 3 . christian werner does some really neat things on the weather front . i would like to determine if he can help us to upgrade our systems . can we bring him to houston for a week to discuss the weather forecasting technology with mike roberts and joe hrgovcic ? i think that he could learn a lot from mike and other weather guys here how we translate weather info into business - related information . i shall be glad to underwrite the cost of this trip . vince",0

"Subject: update - reimbursement of individually billed items the use of cell phones and pagers has increased dramatically in the past few years . as a result the accounts payable department has seen a rapid increase in the number of invoices and vendors . with the higher volume , we have reviewed our processes in order to continue our rapid payment cycle . although we encourage vendors to address their invoices to individual employees , they often mail invoices directly to accounts payable . at times they fail to list the individual who uses the pager or cell phone . in these cases we return the invoice to the vendor . if the employee is designated , we try to track him / her down and forward the invoice . the high level of employee movement among jobs and locations at enron has made this increasingly challenging . either way , we end up doing something less productive than paying invoices . to maintain satisfactory response to our vendors and to reduce time necessary for research , we request that employees who have pagers , cell phones , and other individually billed items such as licenses , subscriptions , etc . , pay for them by personal check or charge card ( if applicable * payment instructions are usually indicated on the invoice ) and request reimbursement through employee expense reports . by submitting these charges on your expense report , you can help us reduce the amount of time spent researching and forwarding invoices , the number of checks generated by treasury , the number of vendors in our database , and the turnaround time for payment of invoices . incidentally , accounts payable is currently installing a corporate - wide web - based expense reporting system similar to what enron international has used for the past year . this will make it even easier to file your expense report and receive quick reimbursement . we , d like to make this effective immediately . if you have any questions or suggestions , please contact the accounts payable department .",0

$ 4 . 20 per barrel higher than a year ago and $ 3 . 46 per barrel greater that the previous five - year average . for the first quarter of 2001 , cera anticipates distillate margins to moderate somewhat but remain at a record high level of $ 4 . 75 per barrel in the first quarter . * jet / kerosene differentials versus wti rose $ 0 . 63 per barrel from the october average , reaching a whopping $ 8 . 59 per barrel in november . in correspondence with the distillate market , jet / kerosene margins are at historically high levels and receiving support from relatively tight fundamentals . cera expects jet / kerosene margins to moderate somewhat in the first quarter in response to seasonal weakening of demand following the holiday travel season but to remain exceptionally strong at an average of $ 5 . 75 per barrel . * margins for us gulf coast 1 % sulfur residual fuel dropped by $ 2 . 15 per barrel , reaching $ 3 . 99 per barrel below wti during november . despite the recent widening of differentials , cera expects soaring natural gas prices to support relatively narrow residual fuel differentials throughout the winter months . residual fuel differentials are expected to average $ 2 . 50 per barrel below wti during the first quarter of next year , at the high end of the historical range . us demand highlights * apparent demand for unleaded gasoline fell seasonally by about 0 . 5 million barrels per day ( mbd ) from the october level , reaching 8 . 36 mbd for the four weeks ending december 8 . demand is averaging less than 1 percent below last year largely because y 2 k concerns helped inflate december demand a year ago . cera anticipates gasoline demand to continue to decline seasonally as colder temperatures arrive , averaging 8 . 08 mbd during the first quarter of 2001 . * reported distillate apparent demand remains exceptionally strong at 3 . 94 mbd for the four weeks ending december 8 , over 7 percent greater than this time last year . this represents a slight increase of about 0 . 05 million barrels ( mb ) from the end - october level of 3 . 90 mb , but still a record high level for early december . with support from low home heating oil inventories , particularly in the northeast , distillate demand has been very strong during the fall of 2000 . cera expects demand to remain strong in the coming winter months , averaging 3 . 79 mb during the first quarter of next year . * apparent demand for jet fuel declined by 5 percent from the october level to reach 1 . 68 mbd for the four weeks ending december 8 . despite the decline , apparent jet fuel demand is over 1 percent above the year - ago level . the relative strength of jet fuel reported demand continues to parallel distillate demand strength with support coming from the use of jet fuel to help mitigate the tight distillate market fundamentals . cera expects the demand for jet fuel to average 1 . 81 mb during the fourth quarter . * reported demand for residual fuel dropped to 0 . 87 mbd for the four weeks ending december 8 , a decline of about 0 . 09 mbd from the october average and a slight increase over the november level . demand for residual fuel is currently 11 percent greater than last year , and surging natural gas prices are expected to result in continued strong residual fuel demand throughout the winter . residual fuel demand is expected to remain in the 0 . 85 to 0 . 9 mbd range during the first quarter of 2001 . us inventory highlights * primary inventories of unleaded gasoline rose to 196 . 5 mb , increasing almost 10 mb from the end - october value . responding to rising stock levels and declining apparent demand , forward supply coverage of gasoline climbed to 23 . 5 days for the four weeks ending december 8 . forward supply is 2 . 5 percent below last year ' s level at this time of year and at its lowest level in the past eight years - although cera still believes coverage is currently sufficient for the level of demand expected this winter . however , cera is looking cautiously at the implications of high distillate refinery yields and production because of the possibility of low gasoline inventories at the start of the driving season in the second quarter of next year . * distillate inventory coverage has remained about level since the end of october at 29 . 2 days of forward supply for the four weeks ending december 8 . despite record high apparent demand , strong refinery production levels helped boost primary distillate inventories slightly , to 115 . 3 mb for this period . primary stocks are 16 percent below last year ' s level at this time and at their lowest historical level ever . although stocks are low , cera does not anticipate shortages to occur this winter . assuming normally cold weather , refinery production and net imports are expected to be capable of meeting demand requirements - albeit at a high price . * jet fuel inventory coverage crept upward by about 1 day of coverage , to reach 25 . 7 days of forward supply for the four weeks ending december 8 . this moves jet fuel coverage above the 23 . 5 to 25 days ' supply range that it had been in for the past four months . the rise of just under 1 day in forward supply was mainly a response to a decline in apparent demand . jet inventories and coverage are expected to become tighter in the coming weeks as the pull from tight distillate markets strengthen , but supplies are expected to be adequate for the winter . * inventory coverage of residual fuel rose by almost 4 days of forward supply from october , reaching 41 . 7 days of forward supply during the four weeks ending december 8 . the increase in coverage was a temporary response to a drop in demand and an increase in stocks . with demand expected to strengthen because of colder weather and high gas prices , cera looks for inventories and coverage gradually to decline in the coming weeks . * * end * * this cera alert will be available in pdf format within 24 hours . this electronic message and attachments , if any , contain information from cambridge energy research associates , inc .

"Subject: cera monthly oil briefing - cera alert - december 20 , 2000 title : cera monthly oil briefing : fundamentals update e - mail category : cera monthly briefing cera knowledge area : world oil in the past two weeks , oil prices have sold off the premium or price strength that had been built into the market in anticipation of possible shortages this winter . the exact cause of the sharp switch in market psychology is hard to pinpoint but seems to be a combination of very early signs that the oil stock situation is at least stabilizing , even if stocks have not built substantially , and that , thus far , despite a few weeks of colder - than - normal temperatures , heating oil supply has been adequate to meet demand in the key us market . that has allayed some of the concerns that were driving speculative interest into the market . furthermore , the potential for weakness in the us economy may be creating expectations for weaker oil demand in 2001 . the change in market psychology was dramatically illustrated when news that iraq was cutting off exports caused prices to slide , yet , the iraqi export cutoff is having a concrete effect on fundamentals . if the cutoff lasts through december , the effect will be pronounced - it would turn a projected fourth quarter 2000 stockbuild of 0 . 5 million barrels per day ( mbd ) into a stockdraw of 0 . 1 mbd . we expect iraqi production levels to remain erratic because of its dispute with the un security council over sanctions , and exports may again cease . at some point such a development would have a price supportive effect . cera ' s price outlook for 2001 remains the same as that in the world oil watch released in late november . assuming normal winter weather and no prolonged or repeated shutdowns of iraqi production , the projected average for first quarter 2001 is $ 29 per barrel for wti . however , this outlook is based on opec ' s announcing an agreement early in the first quarter to cut its production by the start of the second quarter . a failure to restrain output would result in a downward adjustment to an average of $ 27 wti for the first quarter of 2001 , with prices lower in the second half of the quarter than in the first . the downward pressure results from the prospect of a larger - than - usual implied build in stocks during the second quarter of about 3 . 0 mbd - with a cut in opec output . iraq in a twilight zone as anticipated , iraq ceased exporting oil under the un - controlled "" oil for food "" program as of december 1 in protest over the rejection by the security council ' s sanctions committee of its proposed december export price schedule . * iraq ' s pricing was judged by the un overseers , who monitor the export program and advise the sanctions committee , to be about 60 cents per barrel below comparable crudes in an apparent attempt to offset an illicit surcharge that iraq was seeking from buyers . although the standoff with the sanctions committee continues , iraq partially resumed exporting on december 13 . since then , about 1 mbd has been exported from the mina al - bakr terminal in the persian gulf . prior to the shutdown , iraqi exports under un auspices were at a rate of 2 . 21 mbd for november , as compared with 2 . 08 mbd for the third quarter . exports for november were about 1 . 3 mbd from mina al - bakr and about 0 . 9 mbd from ceyhan in the mediterranean . exports from ceyhan have not resumed , owing to the surcharge dispute , with the result that about 1 . 2 mbd of iraqi crude remains off the market . iraq ' s semi - shutdown has put it into a kind of twilight zone while its dispute with the sanctions committee over pricing continues . ( in the midst of this dispute , the un security council approved phase nine of the oil - for - food program at the last minute on december 5 ; it became effective on december 6 and has been accepted by iraq ) . as of decemberl 9 , iraq ' s revised export price for ceyhan , proposed for the remainder of december , has again been judged too low by the overseers and is expected to be rejected by the sanctions committee . additionally , the overseers have notified lifters of iraqi crude that any oil payment made directly to iraq rather than to the un escrow account would be a violation of un sanctions . buyers of iraqi oil from mina al - bakr have consistently been reported as saying that they are not paying a surcharge to iraq . how long iraq may operate at about half capacity is unclear , but it continues to request a surcharge payment from prospective lifters at ceyhan in an apparent effort to circumvent and degrade the un financial controls that are the heart of the sanctions system . the distinction that iraq has made between mina al - bakr and ceyhan arose when it resumed operations at mina al - bakr by loading two cargoes for the india oil company . iraq may have judged this accommodation to be in its interest , since it recently also signed an oil exploration contract with india under which payments would be made in oil . as currently structured , the deal would violate un sanctions , but india is seeking an exception from the security council on grounds of economic hardship . the exception seems unlikely to be granted , which may lead iraq to cease exports from mina al - bakr again . there are many possible scenarios that iraq could follow , but we expect uncertainty about iraqi exports to continue as iraq uses its oil exports as leverage to undermine sanctions in its ongoing struggle with the security council to end all restraints . consequently , the iraq factor will remain an element in the oil price outlook . iraq ' s antisanctions campaign has also raised the visibility of the iraq issue in washington as the incoming bush administration prepares to take office . secretary of state - designate colin powell has already acknowledged a need to reassess iraq policy and has said that he would work to "" reenergize "" sanctions . the iraq issue is being debated in virtually every foreign policy - oriented think tank in washington . a consensus seems to be emerging around seeking renewed international support and legitimacy for sanctions by retaining un control over iraq ' s oil revenue and strictly enforcing a prohibition on sales of weapons and related material while lifting general trade controls that increasingly are both ineffective and an international irritant . there is virtually no sentiment in favor of operations to destabilize or remove the saddam hussein regime on the pragmatic basis that the prospects for success are remote . demand trends record high us natural gas prices have increased the economic incentive for gas consumers with the capability to switch from gas to distillate to do so , and reports of switching are emerging in a number of areas . interruptible gas customers with resid or distillate fuel back - up have already switched to oil , so it is now firm gas supply customers with the potential to add to the already high level of distillate demand . so far in december us distillate demand is running at a record high december level of 3 . 9 mbd . however , only a small portion of this demand is the result of economically based fuel - switching from gas to distillate . cera estimates that the additional demand likely to come from further switching of gas to distillate is relatively small , on the order of 0 . 1 to 0 . 2 mbd . in cera ' s view it is likely that only a portion of the theoretical capacity will be switched on short notice because in some cases , this theoretically switchable capacity has not been used in recent years , and tankage and delivery infrastructure may be in uncertain condition . switching by interruptible gas customers ( such as utilities ) to distillate began about a month or more ago , although the volumes involved are relatively small . switching to residual fuel already occurred months ago when gas prices started to surge in the summer . a portion of the us secondary and tertiary distillate stockbuild seen this autumn was likely prompted by interruptible gas customers filling their reserve distillate fuel storage . given the expectations of a tight gas market , regulators have been explicit about enforcing back - up fuel storage requirements in the months leading up to the current heating season . other end users of natural gas have few or no options for fuel switching . some ammonia and ethane producers have shut down operations because the cost of feedstock natural gas is high . natural gas is also used in some enhanced oil recovery operations , and some of these producers have also opted to sell gas back to the grid rather than produce oil . supply trends non - opec supply for the fourth quarter is expected to be up 0 . 9 mbd over a year earlier at 46 . 4 mbd . recent events include a shortfall in mexican production , curtailed in october by about 300 , 000 bd owing to the effects of hurricane keith . mexico ' s fourth quarter liquids production is expected to be 3 . 64 mbd - about 95 percent of mexican liquids capacity . norway ' s output increased 200 , 000 bd from october to november as maintenance season ended . norway ' s production for the fourth quarter is expected to be 3 . 53 mbd . * growing russian crude oil production throughout the year is supporting a recent surge in exports , in spite of higher export taxes . russian exports of domestic oil production ( excluding transit volumes ) reached 2 . 5 mbd in november , after remaining fairly steady at about 2 . 35 mbd from july though october . fourth quarter oil exports are expected to average 2 . 5 mbd , 0 . 3 mbd greater than in the fourth quarter 1999 . cera estimates iraqi oil production averaged 2 . 91 mbd in november - down 0 . 1 mbd from the october level . the cutoff in exports earlier this month reduced iraqi output for the first 12 days of december to roughly 0 . 8 mbd . iraq resumed exports of about 1 mbd on december 13 , which raised production to 1 . 80 mbd . assuming no change in iraq ' s current production stance , iraqi production would average 1 . 41 mbd for december . on a quarterly basis , the decline in iraq output would lead to estimated opec output in the fourth quarter of 29 . 0 mbd and would turn an estimated global oil stockbuild of 0 . 5 mbd into a stockdraw of 0 . 1 mbd . these production estimates include 0 . 15 mbd of crude oil exports to syria that began on november 20 without un authorization and are continuing . oil stocks us crude oil inventories ( doe data ) have climbed intermittently from an annual low of 280 million barrels in september and reached 292 million barrels in mid - december ( see figure 1 ) . since prices weakened in late november , crude oil stocks have stabilized above the annual low in september and the ranges seen in october to levels from 289 - 292 million barrels . primary inventories of us heating oil remain well below year - earlier levels ; at 48 million barrels they are 15 million barrels , or 24 percent less , than those of a year ago , but there are indications of builds in secondary and tertiary inventories . we estimate that wholesale and consumer stocks are up 5 - 10 million barrels since august and are actually higher than they were at the end of last year . in europe crude oil stocks are at more comfortable levels when compared with those of the united states . in november stocks rose nearly 9 million barrels to 426 million barrels . at this level they are below the highs of 1999 but well above the low levels of early 1996 ( see figure 2 ) . japanese crude oil inventories at end - october were 107 . 6 million barrels , which is above the record low set earlier this year but still well below levels seen in recent years ( see figure 3 ) . come shoot the rapids with us at ceraweek 2001 , "" shooting the rapids : strategies and risks for the energy future "" in houston , february 12 -

"Subject: re : efa meetings hey vince , thanks for your reply . i ' ll see what becomes of the session and keep you informed . as to the paper , tim crack and i have a revised version of the paper i gave you . we have since found out that by using certainty equivalence , our model is more robust . for example , if one has an asset pricing model that incorporates mean , variance , and skewness ( harvey and siddique , jf june , 2000 ) and a binomial model that incorporates mean , variance , and skewness ( johnson , paulukiewicz , and mehta , rqfa , 1997 ) , our model allows you to price options under the real world measure . the benefit is that one can take all of the model parameters from historical data that is non - risk neutralized . from a pricing perspective , there isn ' t a tremendous benefit in a mean - variance world ( variance stays the same in risk neutral or risky measure ) . however , in the mean - variance - skewness world , there is a benefit because we do not believe ( although we ' re still hunting down an appropriate cite ) skewness is the same under risk - neutral and risky measure . given we can only measure the skewness in our risky world , our model becomes much more significant . i would certainly appreciate comments on the version of the paper you have and would also pass on the new version of the paper if you would like to see it . thanks again , tom",0

"Subject: iso new england and pjm propose standard market design message sent from the pjm - customer - info mailing list at pjm - customer - info @ majordomo . pjm . com : iso new england and pjm interconnection propose a standard market design for wholesale electricity markets march 29 , 2001 - holyoke , ma - two of the country ' s leading wholesale electricity market administrators , iso new england inc . and pjm interconnection , l . l . c . , together with alstom esca corporation , a systems developer for electric utilities , today announce their intent to formalize an agreement that will not only standardize their electricity markets , but will lead , they believe , to the standardization of wholesale electricity markets across the country . today , iso new england delivered a letter to the chairman and commissioners of the federal energy regulatory commission ( ferc ) , enclosing a report concerning its proposed comprehensive wholesale market program that combines salient features of the pjm market model with elements of its own existing wholesale market design . the combination would create a standardized wholesale market structure called the standard market design for wholesale electricity markets ( "" standard market design "" ) . iso new england , alstom esca and pjm , acting through its wholly - owned subsidiary , pjm technologies inc . , have agreed to proceed with the negotiation of an agreement where iso new england will purchase the existing pjm market design and certain software components from alstom esca and pjm . the two isos and alstom esca will work together to create a standardized market design that includes solutions to reserve markets and a common solution to unit dispatch . "" this new market standard should put into place the necessary market improvements more quickly and at a reduced cost than if we were to implement a customized market system for new england , "" said william w . berry , chairman and acting ceo of iso new england . "" now is the time to stop the experimentation . ultimately , we hope the standard market design will serve as the benchmark for wholesale electricity marketplaces across the country , if not around the world . "" "" pjm is very excited to further standardize a design for a competitive wholesale electricity market , "" said phillip g . harris , chairman and ceo of pjm . "" along with the progress in the implementation of the pjm west concept , this initiative will provide an even broader standardized market design . "" this approach should further expedite the elimination of trading barriers across different markets and promote ferc ' s goal of creating a seamless marketplace . "" we intend to continue to work with the new york iso on issues of mutual importance , "" stated mr . berry . "" this new market design , together with our efforts to address the market "" seams "" and other coordination issues , will eventually bring the three northeast iso markets closer together . "" iso new england and the new york iso will continue to work together on these issues under a joint board resolution passed on january 16 , 2001 . "" because of our geographic location , new york is in the center of the northeast markets , with iso new england , pjm and imo each on one of our borders . we support the continued elimination of barriers across northeast trading markets to develop a more seamless marketplace where everyone will benefit , "" said william j . museler , president and ceo of the new york independent system operator . "" the new york iso will continue to work with our neighboring markets to remove barriers to trading across the region and to move towards larger regional markets . "" this proposed market design standard will be developed jointly with stakeholder input . iso new england will propose the standard market design to the new england conference of public utility commissioners and the new england power pool in a series of meetings next week . additional meetings will be conducted in the next few weeks . the standard market design for new england will be subject to ferc approval . "" standardization requires consistent and reliable technology to facilitate a market ' s efficiency . a market that moderates price fluctuations and encourages investment based on an expected return is an efficient market - - and efficiency is the key to establishing market liquidity , "" said alain steven , ceo of alstom esca . "" in the future , this agreement will be viewed as a catalyst in establishing more robust electricity markets . "" iso new england inc . is the not - for - profit corporation responsible for the day - to - day reliable operation of new england ' s bulk generation and transmission systems with an installed capacity of almost 26 , 000 megawatts . in addition to operating the bulk power grid , iso new england is the administrator of the region ' s wholesale electricity marketplace and the open access transmission tariff on behalf of the new england power pool . iso new england is based in holyoke , massachusetts . the pjm interconnection , l . l . c . , is an independent system operator , administering the pjm open access transmission tariff and operating the pjm energy markets and capacity markets . pjm currently administers the largest wholesale electricity market in the world and has a membership of more than 200 . it is headquartered in norristown , pennsylvania . pjm technologies , inc . is a wholly - owned subsidiary of pjm interconnection , l . l . c . , designed to respond to market opportunities by bringing cost - effective , reliable solutions to the energy marketplace . it was created to commercialize pjm ' s knowledge capital , experience , and proven success in electric energy markets , system operations , and applications development . # # # for more information about the new york iso , please call : steve sullivan , director of communications , 518 - 356 - 7605 . please do not reply to this message . if you have a question for pjm customer relations and training , please complete and submit this form : to unsubscribe from this list , send an e - mail to majordomo @ majordomo . pjm . com containing only the following line in the body of the e - mail : unsubscribe pjm - customer - info",0

"" that was my motivation . the second problem was that the logos themselves , even if it made sense to do them in gold , made the design too busy - a lot of the appeal in these "" word "" mugs is the clean , linear look . finally , i think lack of company and competing business school logos increases the chances that the academics who come to present their work at our workshop will display this mug on their desk or on their shelves . i think the mug will look quite stunning and i think the display of finance terms will make it an interesting conversion piece - i ' ve never seen anything like it in academics , let alone in finance . i think enron ' s sponsorship of the seminar series will get noticed when people follow their interest in the mugs to say "" what is this ? where ' d this come from ?

"Subject: re : default rates mark , this is a good point . in moody ' s june 1999 study , debt recoveries for corporate bankruptcies , there is a graph of firm - level recovery rates by year of bankruptcy resolution ( as opposed to default year ) . reading from the graph finds : as the data above is based on resolution year , the same study finds the average length of time spent in bankruptcy is 1 . 30 years ( median 1 . 15 years and standard deviation of 1 . 20 years ) . the interesting point is the slide in recovery value 1996 to 1998 . one would wonder if the mix of high - yield issuance slanted towards the tech companies would yield lower recoveries ( quick technological obsolescence - - little tangible recovery value ) . interesting to note is the december 1999 to december 2000 change in spreads . the table below divides the december 2000 spreads by the december 1999 spreads . one would have expected a pronounced flight to safety over this time - frame , but the figures are more mixed : to : michael tribolet / corp / enron @ enron , william s bradford / hou / ect @ ect , david gorte / hou / ect @ ect , vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect cc : subject : re : default rates per our discussion , see attached for impact of assumed recovery rates : michael tribolet @ enron 12 / 11 / 2000 08 : 09 am to : william s bradford / hou / ect @ ect , david gorte / hou / ect @ ect , vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect , mark ruane / hou / ect @ ect cc : subject : default rates please see below for my note to jeremy at the bottom and his reponse . i have placed mark ruane ' s yields against a mid november default frequency table . note there may be a slight shearing in dates , but the concept is more important : market implied cumulative default rates ( % ) : 1 year 5 year 10 year aaa 0 . 51 5 . 74 14 . 54 aa 0 . 67 6 . 39 16 . 61 a 0 . 98 8 . 98 21 . 03 bbb 1 . 17 9 . 88 22 . 39 bb 3 . 27 18 . 62 37 . 51 b 4 . 65 24 . 21 46 . 27 s & p historical default rates ( % ) : 1 year 5 year 10 year aaa 0 . 00 0 . 13 0 . 67 aa 0 . 01 0 . 33 0 . 90 a 0 . 04 0 . 47 1 . 48 bbb 0 . 21 1 . 81 3 . 63 bb 0 . 91 8 . 82 14 . 42 b 5 . 16 20 . 95 27 . 13 in looking at the one - year transition rates as a very rough proxy for how many more defaults occur in a recession ( 1991 ) versus average ( 1981 - 1999 ) historical default rates ( % ) : investment grade non - investment grade avg . 1981 - 99 0 . 07 4 . 21 1991 0 . 12 10 . 40 multiple 1 . 7 x 2 . 5 x looking at where the market implied default rates divided by the historicals default rates to obtain a "" multiple "" ( how much more severe than historical ) : 1 year 5 year 10 year aaa infinite 44 . 2 x 21 . 7 x aa 67 . 0 x 19 . 4 x 18 . 5 x a 24 . 5 x 19 . 1 x 14 . 2 x bbb 5 . 6 x 5 . 5 x 6 . 2 x bb 3 . 6 x 2 . 1 x 2 . 6 x b 1 . 1 x 1 . 2 x 1 . 7 x on the 10 year historical figures , we need to be careful as the s & p static pool figures show a definite seasoning ( lower defaults in late years probably due to prepayment ) versus our contracts . secondly , the s & p figures have withdrawn ratings , which usually mean they are stale , but loosing some information content . i will ask emy to set up a meeting to discuss further . - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - forwarded by michael tribolet / corp / enron on 12 / 11 / 2000 07 : 06 am - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - from : jeremy blachman @ ees on 12 / 10 / 2000 07 : 21 am to : michael tribolet / corp / enron @ enron cc : subject : default rates thanks . i would strongly suggest an offsite sooner than later with a handful of the right people so that we can step back and design the right architecture for looking at credit in our deals . it is broken , not clear , killing our velocity and true capabilities . we also need to look at staffing , skills sets , the credit reserve model etc . perhaps you should take a crack at an agenda . - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - forwarded by jeremy blachman / hou / ees on 12 / 10 / 2000 07 : 08 am - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - michael tribolet @ enron 12 / 09 / 2000 03 : 51 pm to : jeremy blachman / hou / ees @ ees cc : subject : default rates i visited with vince kaminski for about 20 minutes today regarding the market implied defaults rates and the disconnect in investment grade land . he is seeing the same anomaly and agreed that we as a company need to revisit the methodology employed in calculating the implied figures . i will follow through and report back .",0

"Subject: managing enron ' s relationships with the universities jeff , i would like to get on your calendar ( together with jeff shankman ) for 15 - 30 minutes to discuss the results of my visit at the wharton school with tom piazze . a separate message about this visit will follow . i would like also to talk to you about the way we manage our relationships with different universities . historically , we were rather passive customers of the academic institutions , trying to hire the best students and limiting our presence on the campuses mostly to the recruiting trips and campus receptions . we should rethink the way we work with universities . the efforts to get the best students look more and more like a hand - to - hand combat and often we are not very successful . it is critical that we increase our presence on the campuses and this can be accomplished in a number of different ways : 1 . involvement in research projects . for example , we are currently underwriting two research projects at stanford university , involving ph . d . students of professor nicholas bambos ( a top expert on communications networks ) . we shall participate in formulation of the projects ' objectives and will be given access to the results . involvement in research projects allows us to obtain access to current scientific developments in the leading universities and also to lock - up some very promising students . most companies in the high tech industries have such programs . 2 . lectures and presentations by enron employees . practically every presentation i have made so far at different universities resulted in a number of resumes and hiring decisions . it is important that students get exposed to enron early in their academic program . in many cases , the best students have already made up their mind by the time we approach them during their senior years . 3 . visits by faculty members in enron . closer cooperation with the universities has many advantages in addition to getting the best students and obtaining access to current research . the universities are very important in shaping public opinion on the issues critical to enron ' s future ( especially in the area of deregulation and design of new markets ) . currently , the relationships with many leading academic centers depend on personal commitment of a number of overworked enron employees . in many cases , there is no continuity and focus . i want to recommend a creation of a special function ( vp or md level ) responsible for coordinating our relationships with the universities . this function would be separate from our analyst / associate program . i have many ideas how this function could be structured . vince",0

( b ) how enron is disciplining the internal decision making process with market . this is in many ways the critical aspect of real options that most finance people miss - - having options is one thing but exercising them and realizing their value is another . all of the incomplete contracting , asymmetric information , and incentive issues are ignored in real options valuation models . but they are real in practice . my impression is enron ' s real success is in putting place an organization that is able to mitigate these problems by imposing a market disciplining . ( c ) how enron manages the various books that involve physicals , financials , credit etc . this is specially important when many of the real assets have options features and therefore , include non - linear risk profiles . the story of gas is pretty well understood but not many of the others markets enron has been moving into over the last few years . on the gmii front , i think that some interesting opportunities arise when you think of the spectrum in a way similar to that of dark fiber . i am working with several people at lucent on this issue . i think it would be wonderful to engage in a conversation with enron and lucent folks in the room . i can do a lunch time talk on any of these issues . perhaps we can discuss some of these over a conference call . clearly , having vince kaminski in the room would be very important to me . as for schedules , the first 3 weeks of april are horrible . april 26 / 27 , may 3 / 4 are good for me . regards nalin at 06 : 56 pm 03 / 22 / 2001 , mack , iris wrote : > hi , > > as we briefly discussed , i spoke with one of my colleagues ( dr . > martin lin ) about your visiting enron to give a talk and to spend some > time with us to discuss you work in telecommunications , real options , > etc . > > martin and i are working on various broadband related problems . > > we thought it might be helpful if you let us know a bit more about > the following : > * when you want to come ( the research group has weekly > catered lunch on thursday and brown bag lunches on every other friday ) . > > * a description of what you want to talk about with respect > to telecoms , broadband , etc . > * who you would like to meet with me - vince kaminski ( our > boss ) , any other of our colleagues in research , broadband , etc . > . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . etc . > > > > > look forward to hearing from you . > > regards , > iris",0

"Subject: linear programming software purchase vince , i ' d like to purchase some copies of the xpress lp solver for the gas storage optimization model . we have previously discussed the purchase of cplex , but after trialing both systems , have found some worthwhile advantages with xpress . if others find planner / cplex best suited to their application , i see no problem is their use of a different system - both have strengths , and it is likely that i would use planner / cplex myself on some future project if we were to have both systems available . xpress is particularly suited to my application because it handles special ordered sets . this is a very efficient way of representing the storage ratchets as the integer search process is able to use the extra information provided by the set , rather than just using binary integer variables to represent the ratchets . planner is a c + + interface for cplex . it has some significant limitations , and does not permit access to all cplex features . dash optimization have made the following offer : all software purchases made by enron this year will be at 30 % off the list price - we do not need to make a single purchase of any specific quantity of licenses to obtain this discount . 90 days of full maintenance services will be provided with the purchase . the emosl utility will be provided at no cost . the xbsl system will be provided at no cost when it is released in a few weeks time . for the gas storage optimization model , i would like to purchase : one development license , hyper version , with modeller , primal / dual simplex , mip search , dlls , emosl and xbsl when available . list price $ 10 , 000 discounted price $ 7 , 000 two run time licenses for above , list price total $ 8 , 000 discounted price $ 5 , 600 total cost $ 12 , 600 i ' ve used the usually security request system to set the purchase process going , should you agree to this . tom .",0
"Subject: re : power play book vince , i ' m really feeling like a blind mouse about this because i haven ' t ( nor has christie , mike and mark ) read mr . mehta ' s comments . i believe that we would be better equipped to discuss the course of action that should be taken , if any , after we are well versed with mr . mehta and his perspectives . although , i do suggest that if we do decide to proceed , we should approach it by addressing the issues mr . mehta discussed under a different premise , i . e . sponsor a speaking engagement where one of the speakers ' topics would be related to mr . mehta ' s topic - allowing us to strategically tell our side of the story without it appearing that this is a planned rebuttal . we should specifically invite those who attended mr . mehta ' s engagement , but not limit it to this group . let ' s all discuss this once our group has read mr . mehta ' comments . regard , cindy vince j kaminski @ ect 10 / 12 / 2000 04 : 37 pm to : cindy derecskey / corp / enron @ enron cc : mark palmer / corp / enron @ enron , christie patrick / hou / ect @ ect , michael b rosen / hou / ect @ ect , vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect subject : re : power play book cindy , i had rather in mind targeting the same audiences to which mr . mehta spoke , not a general press release . i agree that a general message to the world would attract attention . vince from : cindy derecskey @ enron on 10 / 12 / 2000 03 : 55 pm to : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect cc : christie patrick / hou / ect @ ect , michael b rosen / hou / ect @ ect , mark palmer / corp / enron @ enron subject : re : power play book vince , you are a saint for lending me a copy of your book . i agree with you that we don ' t want increase there revenues even by a $ 1 . 00 , although my recommendation ( and mark palmer ' s as well ) is that we should pursue a rebuttal for the following reasons : as i mentioned i scoured the internet ( britannica . com , amazon . com , yahoo . com and dow jones ) and could not find one mention of the book , therefore mr . mehta ' s distribution must not be wide at all . consequently , his comments may not have reached a large audience . issuing a rebuttal , may in fact , draw more attention to the comments and issues then they are currently receiving . i believe we should proceed with caution , and respond accordingly ( with counter comments ) only when comments are solicited from us . so far , we have not received any telephone inquiries from media in relation to mr . mehta ' s enron bashing . may be we should ' leave the stones unturned ' . let me know what you think . also , please contact me when it is convenient for me to borrow the book from you . regards , cindy vince j kaminski @ ect 10 / 12 / 2000 03 : 38 pm to : cindy derecskey / corp / enron @ enron cc : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect subject : re : power play book cindy , i got a copy of the book and another one is on the way from our officer in india . i can lend you the book and you can makes copies of the most important chapters . i don ' t think we should be buying too many copies and increasing the sales of the book . in general , i think that we should counter the presentations made by mr . mehta . the person in charge of our dhabol operation is a stanford graduate and maybe he could obtain an invitation to speak at the same forum and present the facts as they are . he should be here for the management conference . vince from : cindy derecskey @ enron on 10 / 11 / 2000 01 : 30 pm to : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect cc : christie patrick / hou / ect @ ect , michael b rosen / hou / ect @ ect subject : power play book good afternoon vince , christie patrick mentioned to me the conference that your wife recently attended at stanford . at this coference abahy mehta discussed his / her recently published book ' power play ' - that certainly does not flatter enron . i have conducted a search on amazon . com , britannica . com and dow jones and i am coming up empty handed . would you be kind enough to briefly trouble your wife to provide any other information she may remember , so i can narrow my search . i greatly appreciate it . regards , cindy",0

"Subject: ljm vince / stinson : the following is an update on ljm deal : 1 ) i participated on a conference call with aa ( jitendra and others ) and our accounting / credit group ( wes , bill bradford and others ) yesturday , in which we discussed the best approach for definining credit reserves at year - end for the puts we own . 2 ) a big chunck of the meeting was dedicated to explain aa the details of the deal . little progress was made on achieving the meeting ' s goal . 3 ) apparently , accounting did want to expose the calculation we made for puts value that considers credit risk - the two factor model we developed . that line of action was implied on a pre - meeting we had early that morning . from my understanding , accounting argues that we should not make any credit reserve because we could not liquidate our position by year - end . 4 ) at a certain point jintendra suggested me to use a two factor mc - simulation for calculating the position with credit risk . the approach is actually a more simplified version of the model we have . i and nobody mentioned the results we got from our 2 - factor model . 5 ) at that same afternoon i knew from accounting that we are in a process of unwinding our position . these are the main points . please let me know if need more details . paulo issler",0

supply estimates and several legal requirements and permissions . in fact , the committee has found that the mseb has been paying enron rs 930 crore more than it should every year . this comprises overcharging of rs 253 crore on account of the large regassification plant of which only 42 per cent of the capacity is used for dpc . there ' s also a rs 100 crore extra billing to the mseb for shipping and harbour charges although the cost of these facilities had been included in the capital recovery charge . by charging more than twice the operations & maintenance rate stipulated by the government of india , enron collects approximately rs 246 crore extra every year . it has also been collecting rs 332 crore every year through inflated fuel consumption claims . enron has been charging at 1878 kcal / kwh under the power purchase agreement ( ppa ) although the equipment manufacturer has guaranteed it a much lower consumption rate . this gives it a fat fuel arbitrage opportunity at the cost of the people of maharashtra . the committee has also pointed to the strange practice of using four different exchange rates for different aspects of the project negotiation : a rate of rs 32 per dollar was assumed for calculating debt service of rupee loans , rs 34 . 5 per dollar as reference rate for phase - i , rs 39 . 35 per dollar as reference rate for phase - ii and a curious rs 42 per dollar for calculating government of india tariff . forcing a reduction of these excessive charges has nothing to do with contract cancellation . all it needs is tough negotiation and public pressure on the political establishment . the godbole committee has established that dpc ' s tariffs can easily be halved if excess payments are eliminated and unfair conditions such as the dollarisation of payments , the take - or - pay clause and escrow facility ( which is in fact hampering mseb ' s reform particularly in power distribution ) are scrapped . the security of future payments to dpc under the restructured tariff would be based on increased cash flows from a reformed distribution system . the committee also gives enron a difficult escape route . it says that if the multinational finds the conditions for restructuring too onerous , it should free mseb from its contractual obligations and find buyers outside maharashtra . the committee has tried to establish another precedent on all projects negotiated by government : "" the public has a right to know what is being contracted on their behalf "" and has recommended that all documents , including contracts related to all independent power projects ( ipps ) , particularly dpc , should be published by the maharashtra government within two months . also , having established that demand - supply estimates by the state government were fanciful , the committee has asked mseb to defer all negotiations with power producers until demand levels in the state permit full absorption of power generation from such ipps . it recommends that such negotiations should be in accordance with the least - cost plan spelt out by the report . this should also end the hectic lobbying by reliance ( patalganga ) , mittals ( bhadravati ) , the bses ( saphale ) and others to set up ipps in maharashtra . - - -

in - fact "" and authorise him to represent the company in the negotiation of all project contracts and financing agreements and their amendments and modifications . top sources told the financial express that dpc would authorise mr cline and / or mr mcgregor to serve the preliminary termination notices and transfer notices to the state and central governments and mseb under clause 17 and schedule 11 of the ppa . "" in response to the continuing default by the mseb of its payment obligations under the ppa , the failure of the government of maharashtra to honour obligations under its guarantee and state support agreement and failure of the government of india to honour obligations under its counter guarantee , the company has sought recourse to dispute resolution and has initiated conciliation and arbitration proceedings , "" the company resolution said . "" consistent with this recourse to contractual remedies , the company now seeks the authority to serve preliminary termination notices and transfer notices pursuant to clause 17 and schedule 11 of the ppa from time to time and at any time upon the occurrence of an event giving rise to its right to serve such notices as determined by the company , "" the resolution added . according to the resolution , the directors , the company secretary and officers of the company and each of them acting individually , are authorised and empowered to execute and deliver such documents and instruments and take such other actions as they deem fit to effect the purpose of the resolution , in the name and for and on behalf of the company . against this backdrop , the state government and mseb have been exploring the possibilities of issuing termination notice to the dpc for its failure to meet the contractual obligations under the ppa . the state government and mseb sources said that such a notice could be served by the mseb as dpc has not paid the rebate ( penalty ) of rs 409 crore for misdeclaration and default on the availability of power on january 28 and february 13 . the state government and mseb , which reviewed its position on saturday at a meeting convened by the chief minister vilasrao deshmukh , are of the view that they have a strong case and substantial grounds to slap the termination notice to the dpc . the dpc ' s move to appoint mr k wade cline as its "" true and lawful attorney - in - fact "" deserves importance especially when the state government proposes to set up a negotiating committee to cut the per unit cost and gauge the possibility of sale of dabhol power to the power deficit states . mr cline would also be authorised to dispose of equipment that is worn out or obsolete or other equipment or fuel no longer expected to be used in the ordinary course in amounts exceeding rs 64 crore or the equivalent in foreign currency in any financial year . furthermore , mr cline would be in a position to enter into contracts and take any other actions for purpose relating to the day - to - day operation of the company ' s business or exercise its rights and discharge its obligations under the project contracts and the financing agreements - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - business standard , monday , april 23 , 2001 dpc seeks ok to exit power project , tamal bandyopadhyay otherwise it cannot be a complete exercise , "" he added . deshmukh and the mseb team are scheduled to meet union finance minister yashwant sinha and power minister suresh prabhu on monday in new delhi to discuss the stalemate and find a acceptable solution for the same . "" i am meeting sinha and prabhu to request them to take an initiative and send representatives for the negotiations committee , "" he said . deshmukh ' s meeting with the centre comes at a crucial stage as dpc ' s lenders would be meeting in london , on the same day , to decide upon the future finances of the controversy marred 2 , 184 - mw project in dabhol . moreover , the dpc board is also scheduled to meet on april 25 in london to decide the fate of its $ 900 million project in dabhol , including winding up of its operations . the meeting would discuss the topmost item on the agenda , which was to empower dpc managing director neil mcgregor to wind up operations in the country . dpc has already slapped one conciliation notice on the centre and three arbitration notices on the state government over non - payment of dues amounting to rs 213 crore plus interest towards the bills due for the months of december 2000 and january 2001 . asked whether the centre had send any feel over a possible clubbing together of the arbitration and conciliation processes , deshmukh replied in the negative . deshmukh said mseb chairman vinay bansal along with two senior officials would attend dpc ' s board meeting in london . bansal had said on sunday that mseb would present its case concerning the rs 401 - crore penalty that the loss - making board slapped on dpc on february 28 , for not generating required power within the stipulated time as per the ppa . currently , enron india holds 65 per cent in the $ 900 - million dpc project , which includes mseb ' s 15 per cent , while general electric and bechtel hold 10 per cent each .

"" - - energy review committee headed by former home secretary madhav godbole this could well be the real enron story a five - member high - powered committee headed by madhav godbole - and including former union economic affairs secretary e . a . s . sarma , hdfc chairman deepak parekh , teri chairman rajendrapachauri and maharashtra government official vinay mohan lal - has recommended a judicial probe into the entire enron power project deal saying it signified "" the utter failure of governance that seems to have characterised almost every step of the decision - making process relating to the dabhol project "" . the report , which was submitted to the maharashtra government last fortnight and has been acquired by outlook , is severely critical of former chief minister sharad pawar ( with the congress then ) , the 13 - day bjp - led union government which reworked the deal in 1996 , shiv sena supremo balasaheb thackeray and his government in maharashtra headed by manohar joshi "" the utter failure of governance seems to have characterised almost every step of decision - making relating to the dabhol project . "" madhav godbole committee report an investigation , if ordered , could embarrass at least these three governments the report clearly upholds the allegations of money being paid by enron to politicians and bureaucrats for clinching the deal . according to the committee , the deal reveals failure of governance , both at the centre and state , and across different agencies . "" it strains belief to accept that such widespread and consistent failure to execute responsibilities is purely coincidental , "" the report said , proposing a set of measures to be implemented if something of the project was to be retrieved . godbole and sarma also felt that the panel should categorically recommend the government of india to order a judicial inquiry . this was finally adopted by it . says a congress leader : "" enron could well become the biggest political issue in maharashtra and put to question liberalisation , particularly in the power sector . "" the proposal has already struck panic . says ncp ' s praful patel : "" if the enron decision has at all been detrimental , it is because of the haste with which phase 2 was cleared by the shiv sena - bjp government . now with the state having already entered into an agreement with enron , the important thing is to resolve it amicably . a judicial inquiry will be an eyewash because it ' s not an issue of corruption but that of perception . "" pro - market congressmen privately admit that it was their governments at the centre and the state which invited enron , even though the second phase was cleared by the bjp - shiv sena combine . says congress spokesperson jaipal reddy : "" right now we ' re too involved with the parliament deadlock over tehelka . "" pro - liberalisation congress mps also fear that such witch - hunting could send wrong signals to foreign investors . non - congress mps from maharashtra , meanwhile , claim that the godbole committee was instituted with the express purpose of politicising the enron issue . "" i think i know vilasrao deshmukh ' s gameplan , "" says an mp from the state . but some mps like congress ' prithviraj chavan question the cloak of secrecy that ' s surrounded the deal : "" i ' ve maintained for long that there should be a judicial committee to examine this "" . the committee report also says that had the enron project been subjected to a techno - economic appraisal , as envisaged under provisions of the electricity supply act of 1948 and related legislations , the infirmities could have been avoided . since this wasn ' t done , questions about a concerted effort towards exercising undue influence at every stage of the project are bound to arise , the exhaustive 93 - page report points out . "" i ' d highlight the speed with which the 13 - day vajpayee government cleared the project minutes before it quit , "" says congress mp prithviraj chavan . the enron project had been held out as an exemplar of the impending liberalisation in the early ' 90 s and , despite several controversies , is now an established power project at dabhol , 150 km south of mumbai . in july 1992 , enron signed an mou with the maharashtra state electricity board ( mseb ) to set up a 2 , 550 mw station as part of the government ' s ' fast track ' projects . subsequently , when the shiv - sena - bjp came to power in maharashtra it filed a writ against the project . this curiously led to renegotiations with enron . the committee has quoted a bombay high court order on the renegotiated deal . "" once it ( gom ) decided to revive the project , it acted in the very same manner its predecessors in office had done . it forgot all about competitive bidding and transparency . the speed with which the negotiating group studied the project and made its proposal for renegotiatons , which was accepted by dabhol , is unprecedented . "" says chavan : "" i would particularly like to highlight the speed with which the 13 - day vajpayee government at centre endorsed the renegotiated project minutes before it resigned . "" since the commissioning of the plant in may 1999 , the mseb has paid rs 1 , 607 crore for the power it has bought from dabhol . if the same watttage of power had been bought from indian - built power plants fired by indigenous coal , the payment would have been approximately rs 736 crore . in the first year - and - a - half of its operation itself , the dpc had drained the maharashtra exchequer of nearly rs 1 , 000 crore . the central electricity authority ( cea ) , in fact , pointed out that the dabhol plant was not the least costly option . the mseb had other inexpensive alternatives like the four units of kaparkheda , but they were in a preliminary stage . the report notes : "" . . . if the mseb had made efforts to seriously pursue these projects , they might not have remained in their preliminary stages "" . it adds that the members were of the opinion that "" the mseb and the maharashtra government erred seriously , based on information available at that time , in proceeding with the dpc as a base - load factor even when its capacity was reduced . "" the failure seems to have been compounded by the laxity of the union power ministry , finance ministry and the cea . it quotes the cea as saying that since the union finance ministry found the tariff reasonable , no further examination was required strangely , bal thackeray ' s shiv sena , when it came to power together with the bjp in maharashtra , filed a writ in the court and then renegotiated the deal . after the new shiv sena - bjp government took over , its cm , manohar joshi , appointed a renegotiating committee in 1996 which made the right noises , actually managing to reduce the tariff . but certain things remained inexplicable . no fresh clearances were required from the cea , which also said that "" since no cost increase was involved . . . fresh formal clearance wasn ' t necessary . "" says the committee : "" this only adds strength to the suspicion that the cea didn ' t consider the economic aspects of the project at all . indeed , given the non - availability of any official record of the meeting on june 24 , 1994 , with the committee and the nature of this letter dated december 23 , 1994 , the committee is doubtful whether the economic aspects of dpc were discussed at all . ' ' the credibility of the shiv sena - bjp government has been seriously questioned . "" the committee finds it unexplicable ( sic ) why there was no mention of any reduction in capital cost of the project from $ 2 , 828 million to $ 2 , 501 million as agreed by dpc in the summary report of the renegotiating committee , "" the panel observes . says lawyer prashant bhushan : "" it is strange that the shiv sena - bjp government first filed a writ in the court and then coolly renegotiated the deal . "" the committee further spells out the losses incurred through the deal . "" subsequent to the commissioning of the dpc , the financial deterioration of mseb has been rapid . while the mseb was in profit in 1998 - 99 , it plunged into huge losses of rs 1681 crore in 1999 - 2000 . "" significantly , the world bank in 1993 had predicted the system ' s inherent weaknesses . in a letter written to the then power secretary , r . vasudevan , a top bank official had said that "" after a detailed review of the analytical framework and costing assumptions , we reconfirm our earlier conclusion that the dabhol project , as presently formulated , is not economically justified "" and that in "" our assessment the project is too large to enter the mseb system in 1998 . the proposed base - load operation could result in uneconomic plant dispatch , as already existing lower variable cost coal power would be replaced by the higher cost lng power . "" enron ' s persistence and the ' gullibility ' of the indian side can be gauged from high - ranking enron official joe sutton ' s letter to a key indian official , ajit nimbalkar : "" i recently met with the world bank and have been following the articles in the india papers . i feel that the world bank opinion can be changed . we ' ll engage a pr firm and hopefully manage the media from here on . the project has solid support from all other agencies in washington . "" the key question in the enron deal is whether a developed state like maharashtra needs outside intervention in the power sector at all ? for the first time the godbole committee has raised objections about the viability of such a project . according to the report , the mseb has been one of the better performing boards in the country and has , despite a faulty transmission and distribution ( t and d ) system , managed to consistently earn net revenue surpluses on an accrual basis . maharashtra accounts for nearly one - fourth of the gross value of india ' s industrial sector . it ' s one of the few states to achieve 100 per cent electrification . since ' 95 , the mseb has been adding to its generation . "" this improvement , which has been largely due to renovation and modernisation undertaken by the mseb , exceeded its own expectations at a time when the dpc was being considered , "" the report points out . following a policy of cross - subsidy , roughly nine out of its ten users are subsidised . but the gap between the average cost of supply and average realisation hasn ' t been much . in fact , the subsidy claim decreased from rs 630 crore in 1995 - 96 to rs 355 crore in 1998 - 99 , until in 1999 - 2000 it increased nearly five - fold to rs 2 , 084 crore due to the sudden increase in the gap by 26 paise per unit - from 15 to 41 paise - an increase of 173 per cent . "" the increase in the subsidy claim by rs 1 , 729 crore is due to the increase in the gap principally because of the increase in power purchase costs , "" says the committee , adding : "" without the dpc and without problems of t and d loss , the mseb could be financially healthy . "" but can that happen now since enron is here to stay ? the committee has come up with some far - reaching recommendations : make public all dabhol - related documents and agreements , restructure the dabhol project itself to bring down the cost of power , restructure dpc financially , allow sale of dpc power outside maharashtra , re - examine ppas in accordance with least - cost plans , and thoroughly reform the mseb . the committee know this can become reality only with political consensus and through forming of public opinion . the question is , can that be achieved in an unstable political environment ? with priya sahgal making of a scam ? 1992 : centre invites enron to set up ' fast track ' power project ? dec 1993 : first ppa signed with mseb ? 1994 : enron starts construction ? 1995 : sena - bjp govt scraps enron ? 1996 : state govt renegotiates project ? 1996 : 13 - day vajpayee govt approves counter - guarantee ? may 1996 : state cabinet clears ppa ? may 13 , 1999 : phase i commissioned ? jul 1999 : financial closure for phase ii ? oct 2000 : mseb defaults on payment , subsequently stops paying monthly bills ? feb 6 , 2001 : enron invokes central government ' s counter - guarantee - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - business standard , monday , april 23 , 2001 mseb revenue collections up at rs 968 crore in march , renni abraham the maharashtra state electricity board ' s ( mseb ) revenue collections in march 2001 stood at a record rs 968 crore . this was largely due to the disconnection drive on defaulter connections - - pegged at nearly 20 , 000 disconnections a month - - which resulted in compliance by consumers . with the dabhol power company ( dpc ) monthly financial burden issue now a topic of discussion among arbitrators on the negotiating table , the mseb has turned to putting its house in order . as if to ward of any criticism of its fiscal condition that could be termed as the facilitator to the entire dpc tariff crisis , the state electricity board has put matters relating to its performance on record . for instance , mseb has recorded the highest power generation in the year ended march 31 , 2001 , at 45930 units , compared with the previous year ' s 45582 units , making it the top seb of the country in this respect . similarly its power stations recorded the highest availability percentage at 86 . 1 up from 84 . 6 per cent last fiscal . plant load factor is up to 72 . 78 per cent , compared with 71 . 7 per cent in 2000 . the parli power station has recorded the highest ever generation in the ten years of its life time in 2000 at 4545 million units , which made it eligible for the meritorious productivity award under the eligibility guidelines issued by the government of india carrying a cash award of rs 12 . 5 lakh . all other power stations in the state , without exception , also fulfill the eligibility criteria for the cash award , a senior mseb official said . similarly , the chandrapur power station became the first power station of any state electricity board to get the iso 9002 certification . a senior mseb official said : "" earlier mseb was suffering from too much interference in its day to day functioning . the agriculturists were touted as the major reason for its deteriorating accruals , while theft of electricity during the transmission and distribution stage was conveniently camouflaged under this head . in the recent past , the government has authorised mseb to take steps to curb this misuse of power by its own officials , many of whom , including a chief engineer have suffered suspensions",0

"Subject: alliance info alert : ferc report on western markets at its special meeting today , ferc released the results of its eagerly awaited probe into california ' s summer power crisis , concluding that under certain circumstances , california ratepayers were subjected to unjust and unreasonable power rates due to california ' s "" seriously flawed "" market structure and rules in conjunction with tight demand and supply conditions throughout the west . the ferc staff report on western markets and the causes of the summer 2000 price abormalities , entitled , part i of staff report on u . s . bulk power markets , is available at the following website : in response , ferc issued an order proposing a series of sweeping structural changes to the california iso and px to help remedy the pricing problems , and solicited public comment by november 22 . a technical conference has also been scheduled for november 9 , to discuss the proposed solutions and other remedies that might be suggested ( details tba ) . while all four commissioners supported the order , the order stretched the commission . chairman hoecker and comm . breathitt expressed strong endorsements , while comms . hebert and massey concurred , citing areas where they felt the commission had either "" over - reached "" or not gone far enough , as discussed below . a final order is expected to be issued by year ' s end . at the same time , the commission warned california consumers of their continued risk of paying higher prices unless policy makers there resolve state issues , such as : ( 1 ) immediately implementing the availability of day ahead markets for power purchases ; ( 2 ) development of demand responses ; ( 3 ) siting of generation and transmission ; and ( 4 ) assurance of sufficient reserve requirements . highlights of proposed california structural remedy in its order , ferc proposed a series of market overhauls , including : ( 1 ) eliminating the state ' s mandatory requirement that the state ' s investor - owned utilities buy and sell electricity through the px , and allowing these utilities to purchase electricity through forward contracts and other alternative mechanisms to manage supply risks . ( 2 ) requiring market participants to schedule 95 percent of their transactions in the day - ahead market and instituting a penalty charge for under - scheduling ( in excess of five percent of hourly load requirements ) , in order to discourage over - reliance on the real - time spot market . ( 3 ) establishing independent , non - stakeholder governing boards for the iso and px . ( 4 ) modifying the current single price auction system by ( a ) imposing a temporary $ 150 / mwh "" soft cap "" that prohibits supply bids in excess of $ 150 from setting the market - clearing price for all bidders ; ( b ) requiring sellers bidding above $ 150 / mwh to report their bids to ferc on a confidential , weekly basis and provide certain cost support ; and ( c ) requiring the iso and px to report monthly information on such bids . the commission ' s price mitigation measures would remain in effect through december 31 , 2002 . ( 5 ) declining to order retroactive refunds for the state ' s ratepayers and utilities , citing insufficient authority to do so , but subjecting sellers to potential refund liability for transactions from october 2 , 2000 until december 21 , 2002 , but no lower than their marginal or opportunity costs , if ferc finds non - competitive behavior . ( 6 ) encouraging accelerated state siting approval and introduction of demand response management programs . separately , the draft order rejected the iso ' s request for an extension of its current purchase price cap authority , and the px ' s request for price capping authority . commissioner responses comm . herbert reluctantly concurred , noting that his decision may change when a final order is considered based on comments filed or testimony offered at the november 9 meeting . he stressed that he would have preferred that the order address four areas : ( 1 ) eliminate all price controls in california markets ; ( 2 ) abolish the single price auction entirely ; ( 3 ) terminate the "" buy and sell "" mandate in the px ; and ( 4 ) direct the iso to address a long list of cited problems in its january 2001 rto filing , rather than having the commission prescribe specific remedies . hebert stated that while he was opposed in principle to the "" soft cap "" concept , if one had to be adopted , then the soft cap should increase incrementally increase over time at specific pre - announced dates . he believes that this would serve to both encourage greater investment in facilities and additional forward contracting as well as provide an incentive for california regulators to address market design and other flaws . also , he would not have disbanded the stakeholder governing boards at this time , but allow the iso and px to address this issue in their january 2001 rto filings . in addition , he would not dictate risk management methods , preferring instead that market participants determine appropriate actions on their own . finally , he advised californians not to be so environmentally focused that they do not realize their tremendous need for generation capacity . comm . breathitt stated her approval of the order while warning that ferc cannot allow the events of this past summer to reverse or slow the progress towards open and competitive markets . she noted that it was the commission ' s job to guide the market to self - correct and not to conduct "" command and control . "" she also commended the managers of the iso and px , saying that they have performed admirably . however , she noted she is awaiting comments on the single price auction remedy and its accompanying confidential reporting requirements . comm . massey concurred , but emphasized that he advocates a more aggressive approach . he feels that the congress has "" put its thumb on the scale "" in the federal power act to protect consumers . stating that prices will continue to be unreasonable in the future , he believes that this order moves in the right direction , by proposing solutions to identified problems such as an over reliance on the spot market , lack of demand response , the need to reconstitute governance of the iso and px and the elimination of the buy / sell mandate . comm . massey specifically called for comments regarding whether the $ 150 / mwh soft cap went far enough , whether ferc has the legal authority to issue refunds and to determine whether there should be a requirement for a certain percentage of forward contracting to hedge against the spot market price volatility . finally , chairman hoecker stated his strong support of the order , but noted that this is "" no time to pull punches . "" he emphasized that the commission needed frank comments from the industry . he echoed comm . breathitt ' s warning that competition is at risk and that they needed to get the markets back on track . noting that the commission lacked authority to order refunds , he stated that the responsibility rests with congress . addressing jurisdictional issues , he stated that siting problems encountered at the state level are slowing the "" meandering transition "" to competition . he feels that the state of california and ferc need to work together to resolve these problems and that ferc is not attempting to usurp power . rather , california is part of a broader interstate market and is dependent on the western region for reliable energy , thus placing the burden on federal action to make things work , hoecker maintained . the chairman also said that the commission will fully investigate and act upon complaints of market power abuse or further evidence provided by staff ' s ongoing investigation . if you have any questions or comments , please call jack cashin at 202 / 508 - 5499 .",0

"Subject: data for moody ' s riskcalc craig and kim , as you know , i have obtained a 60 day trial subscription to moody ' s riskcalc . you wanted to know if it makes sense for enron to purchase riskcalc . well , after plowing through their 100 page manual and sitting through today ' s 2 - hour moody ' s presentation , it is necessary for us to have information about enron ' s counterparties to move to the next step with riskcalc . we have obtained some information on enron ' s european counterparties from our colleagues in the london office . we need for you and / or your colleagues in the houston office to supply us with a list of enron ' s north american counterparties . more specifically , to evaluate moody ' s riskcalc we will need the following financial inputs for enron ' s north american ( private firm ) counterparties : fiscal year the prior twelve months of financial data are represented . annual statements are usable as well as quarterly statements after summing the flow variables , such as cost of goods sold , net income , sales , and ebit . the value should be a four - digit integer year without mention of the day or month such as 1999 or 2000 . forecasts until the year 2009 can be made . a constant rate of inflation is applied to future years using last year ' s ( 1999 ) inflation level . in general this ' estimation error ' will not cause any great problems , as size affects default rates at very large scales ( e . g . , $ 10 , 000 , 000 vs . $ 1 , 000 , 000 makes a significant difference , $ 1 , 000 , 000 vs . $ 1 , 050 , 00 does not ) . cash & equivalents this measure of liquid assets includes cash and marketable securities . inventory inventories are taken directly from the balance sheet , in thousands dollars , without any alterations for accounting method ( e . g . , lifo , fifo , average cost ) . this item represents merchandise bought for resale and materials and supplies purchased for use in production of revenue . specifically this would include purchase cost , sales cost , sales taxes , transportation costs , insurance costs , and storage costs . current assets this item primarily represents cash , inventories , accounts receivables , marketable securities , and other current assets . total assets total assets and every other variable are entered in thousands of dollars . for example , $ 15 , 500 , 000 should be entered as 15500 . specifically , total assets are the sum of current assets plus net property , plant , and equipment plus other noncurrent assets ( including intangible assets , deferred items , and investments and advances ) . leave previous year ' s total assets blank for australian companies . current liabilities liabilities are positive values . included in current liabilities are short - term debt , accounts payable , and other current liabilities . total liabilities this balance sheet account , total liabilities , is a positive number representing the sum of current liabilities plus long - term debt plus other noncurrent liabilities ( including deferred taxes , investment tax credit , and minority interest ) . retained earnings retained earnings , a historical measure of performance , is the cumulative earnings of the company less total dividend distributions to shareholders . typically , it is the prior year ' s retained earnings plus net income less distributions . retained earnings are generally positive . some firms with low credit quality will have negative retained earnings . leave this field blank for australian companies . sales this item consists of the industry segment ' s gross sales ( the amount of actual billings to customers for regular sales completed during the period ) reduced by cash discounts , trade discounts , and returned sales and allowances for which credit is given to customers . cost of goods sold entered in thousands of dollars , this value is generally a positive number less than sales . it represents all costs directly allocated by the company to production , such as material , labor , and overhead . not fixed overhead or items that would be included in selling , general , and administrative expenses . leave this field blank for australian companies . ebit earning before interest expense is operating income after depreciation . it can be positive or negative but is usually greater then net income . interest expense this item represents the periodic expense to the company of securing short - and long - term debt . typically , we expect this charge to be approximately the prevailing interest rate times the total liabilities . one measure of computing this is : interest expense = 0 . 07 * total liabilities . net income this item represents the income ( or loss ) reported by a company after expenses and losses have been subtracted from all revenues and gains for the fiscal period including extraordinary items and discontinued operations . a loss is represented by a negative sign . for example , a $ 5 , 000 , 000 loss would be entered as - 5000 . leave previous year ' s net income blank for australian companies . extraordinary items positive or negative , this item represents unusual items that sometimes appear on the income statement . the items are designated by the company as extraordinary and presented after net income from continuing operations and discontinued operations . these items include extraordinary gains / losses , income ( loss ) from discontinued operations , and cumulative affect of accounting changes . expenses are entered as negative values , gains as positive values . leave previous year ' s extraordinary items blank for australian companies . country this model is calibrated for the united states , canada , and australia . we look forward to receiving this information for enron ' s private firm north american counterparties so that we can move on to the next step with the evaluation of riskcalc . thanks , iris",0

"" 2 . debt restructuring - guarantees , but no direct state money davis also told the videoconference that he believes the $ 12 billion in back debt owed by the utility companies can be cleared up during a 90 - day forbearance period ( whether that period has been agreed to by all creditors is not something we are clear about right now ) . davis ' idea , as he laid it out in the meeting , is to use the forbearance period to securitize the debts and sell them against the utilities ' forward rate base or by establishing a medium - term repayment plan backed by continued state guarantees . in both cases the restructured debt would be resolved over a decade without direct use of taxpayer money as the utilities use their positive margins to paydown their debt . one of the reasons davis wants to stay close to the $ 50 - $ 55 megawatt charge is that it maximizes the rate at which utilities can pay down this debt . there is a strong chance that davis will agree to use state guarantees to sweeten the pot at the end of these negotiations , but he remains opposed to using direct state money . this frustrates both clinton administration and utility creditors , but davis has not yet shown much flexibility . 3 . eminent domain / reregulation perhaps most frustrating to the washington dc free market crowd at treasury and the white house was the continued comfort davis and his group of political advisers have with "" non - market "" solutions to the energy crisis . although the governor ' s aides actually believe the weapon is more a "" way to force eventual agreement , than an actual solution , "" the talk returns frequently to these non - market mechanisms . "" we have the ultimate weapon to enforce compliance by the tuesday deadline . if we make no progress . if this thing looks like it will turn into a genuine crisis , then we will use our powers of condemnation and we will re - take the plants and equipment and run them ourselves , "" a close political aide to davis said .

"Subject: re : lng may 19 decision john , this is the update on what i have done for the lng transactions . 1 . i was not involved in the lng ship project . i shall read the dash and give you my comments . without looking at the details , i think that the decision to charter a tanker removes one significant risk we have at the elba island project ( please , see point 2 ) . 2 . elba island . i am working with doug rotenberbg , brad hitch , scott earnest ( sally beck ' s organization ) and rac to set up the book for the elba island transaction . the next step will be to expand the book to capture all the enron ' s lng - related positions in one place and to look for natural risk offsets and possible hedges . a working group is meeting to close a few remaining gaps tomorrow ( tuesday ) at 8 : 30 . a few comments on the book design and my view of the project : a . the current thinking is that lng will be sourced for the elba island facility by buying marginal cargos on the fob basis . marginal cargos will represent supply from excess capacity that has not been committed under long - term contracts or became available due to some short - term frictions . the fob cargos are typically selling at a significant discount to the long - term contract prices . the economics of the deal , as represented by the book we are setting up , will reflect the assumption that not only we can locate marginal cargos but that we shall be able to do it on a regular basis , arranging shipping and coordinating the facility schedule and natural gas transactions in the us . in other words , we have a significant logistical and operational risk in this transaction . b . the transaction will cover the period of 17 years ( with an extension option of 5 years ) . even if we can lock - in the lng volumes over this time period , we have no ability to lock - in the other side of the spread ( us gas prices ) for such a long tenor . this is essentially a tolling transaction with exposure to the lng - nat gas spread and i would not recommend locking - in only one leg of the spread . one solution would be to cover , let ' s say , 50 % of he lng volumes for the first 5 years and lock - in the nat gas side on the us market side . c . the book we are setting up will be based on many managerial assumptions regarding sources of lng , shipping rates , schedules , etc . i would set up a big prudence reserve in case we mark it to market . d . my group will work on valuation of some options we have in the elba island deal ( that are good for enron ) and on the hedging strategy for the lng positions . long - term lng contracts are typically based on the japanese crude cocktail that correlates very well with brent . vince john sherriff 05 / 14 / 2000 01 : 40 am to : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect cc : lauren urquhart / lon / ect @ ect subject : lng may 19 decision vince i haven ' t spoken to you for awhile but hope the world is treating you well . anyway with greg moving to his new role i have ( i hope only temporarily ) staff trading oversight for the eastern hemishere plus lng . i understand that your group is taking a first cut at developing curves for lng and lng ship values . i also understand that another lng ship decision is on the dockets for may 19 ( not very far away ) . anway i understand this is a big decision but i still have gotten very little info yet . can you please let me know where you stand now ? i will ask my assistant lauren to set up a time that i can speak with you in the next couple of days and if you have anything for me to review before then she can get it faxed to me as well . look forward to connecting with you vince . john",0

"" with the engineering procurement and construction contractors ge and equipment suppliers bechtel too in a cautious mode mode , dpc was finding it even more difficult to continue the construction of the project as per the schedules . sources said the stand taken by the rest of the directors on the board would be in view of the backlash that the company would have to face from its shareholders if the project actually flopped . enron had similar bitter experiences in pakistan and it was difficult for the parent company to then justify such investments to the shareholders . enron , which had planned a major investments in india ' s infrastructure sectors such as oil and gas , lng , gas transportation , telecom and broadband network , has already pulled out most of their personnel from some of these operations . the company ' s mous with various other majors like indian oil corporation , too , is in a limbo and the us major ' s stake in the oil and gas venture is up for grabs . however , even though lay is still hoping to find a solution to the controversy back home , both dpc and mseb are still to get down to negotiations . - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - the economic times , may 7 , 2001 maha sore over delay in naming godbole nominee the maharashtra government has expressed ' unhappiness ' over the centre ' s delay in appointing its nominee on the nine - member godbole committee to renegotiate the power purchase agreement signed between enron - promoted dabhol power company and state electricity board .

"" in last november itself , mseb had sent an official intimation to the state government informing its decision in favour of cancellation of the two projects on several grounds - - including they being unviable and unaffordable , "" sources said . "" reliance ' s project is no different from that of dpc ' s . patalganga is also naphtha - based and its ppa is on similar lines . . . after the enron experience , mseb cannot even dream of another gas - based power plant in the state , "" a senior mseb official said . he said mseb has already asked the state government not to provide escrow to both the 447 - mw patalganga and the 1 , 084 - mw coal - based bhadravati , "" as the us energy major has almost squeezed us of all over finances "" . when contacted , mseb chairman vinay bansal said : "" reliance and ispat projects have been put on hold as per the godbole committee ' s recommendations "" , but expressed inability to give further details . currently , bhadravati and patalganga projects have been put on hold as per godbole committee report , which was set up to review the dpc - mseb ppa and energy scenario in maharashtra . "" can you go ahead with the project without an escrow cover ? "" the committee was believed to have asked ispat and reliance representatives , to which the reply had been negative , sources added . sources said , as of now , both the projects have not been able to achieve financial closure as leading financial institutions were not willing to fund the projects which do not have a "" guaranteed payment "" mechanism from mseb , which , incidentally it has promised to dpc . "" all the three were cleared as ' fast - track ' projects , but other than enron , reliance and ispat have been caught in a quagmire , especially bhadravati , which has been hanging afire since last nine years , "" they added . moreover , the mseb official opined that given the current situation , if dpc calls it quits from india , bhadravati was a safer bet than reliance ' s patalganga . patalganga ' s power would be mere 50 paise less than that of dpc ' s that ranges anywhere around approximately rs 4 . 50 per unit to as high as rs 7 , while bhadravati ' s cost could be around rs 3 . 80 to rs 4 per unit , he informed . mseb ' s installed capacity ended on march 31 , 2001 , wasl 4 , 000 mw and it has generated 45 , 000 million units with transmission and distribution losses as high as 39 per cent .

"" ten days have passed since the lenders bought three weeks time from the company delaying its declaration of the termination of the ppa . since then , nothing has moved at the material level barring mseb ' s payment of the january bill to the tune of rs 134 crore under protest , "" said a source among the global arrangers . come forward to meet its obligations the lenders are planning to meet around mid - may in london and this time they will be left with no choice but to give the go - ahead to the company to terminate the ppa unless the finance ministry comes forward to settle the issue , the source added . the lenders are , however , not ready to take the blame for any delay in the termination of ppa as implied by the company . the white & case statement said the lenders are concerned about the fate of the project and they are exploring all intermediate steps before choosing the last option - - termination of ppa . - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - business standard , saturday , 5 may , 2001 ge may pull out as dpc supplier , s ravindran in mumbai after us - based bechtel , it is now the turn of general electric to review its participation as equipment supplier to the controversial 2 , 184 - mw power project in maharashtra , being set up by the dabhol power company . bechtel is the epc contractor to the project while ge has supplied the equipment , primarily turbines . general electric , like bechtel , also holds 10 per cent in dabhol power company ( dpc ) . and both bechtel and general electric are worried about future payments from dpc . sources familiar with the project said that so far dpc has not defaulted in its payments to general electric . what is worrying general electric is the possible scenario after june 7 , when about 700 mw power will be commissioned after the second phase trial runs . dpc and the maharashtra state electricity board ( mseb ) have been locked in a payments dispute for months . if mseb continues with its stance , dpc in turn may not be able to pay general electric . in such a situation , ge may walk out of the project . a final decision will be taken only in june , said sources . general electric did not respond to a faxed questionnaire sent by business standard . senior executives at its public relations agency burson marsteller roger pereira said that only dpc executives were authorised to speak on the issue . the dpc spokesman declined to comment on the issue . the first phase of the 740 mw has already been commissioned . after the second phase of 1 , 444 mwis commissioned by december , 2001 , mseb will have to pay dpc a minimum of rs 500 crore per month . the escrow account for this was to have been made operational by april 7 , 2001 . mseb has refused to do this . earlier , dpc had invoked the political force majeure clause in its contract with the board . mseb is now arguing that the invocation of this clause has absolved dpc of all its liabilities . consequently , it will not operationalise the escrow account . this casts a further shadow over dpc , s ability to pay general electric and bechtel . this is worrying the lenders to the project as well . the situation has taken a turn for the worse with dpc practically refusing to re - negotiate the contract for the second phase with the godbole panel constituted by the maharashtra government . - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - hindu businessline , may 5 , 2001 agenda for fresh talks with enron chalked out officials of the state government , maharashtra state electricity board ( mseb ) and members of the madhav godbole committee , which recently submitted its review on the dabhol power project , met here on saturday . the meeting was to ` ` chart the agenda for renegotiation with enron officials , ' ' a senior mseb official said . enron officials were scheduled to attend this meeting but backed out on may 3 . enron had informed the state government that it would not accept the recommendations of the godbole committee . ` it is understandable that the company does not find the recommendations acceptable . but the report is not bound to personal opinions , ' ' the official said . the next meeting to decide the direction of renegotiation process with enron is scheduled on may 11 . - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - the economic times , may 6 , 2001 godbole panel meets sans dabhol representation the godbole committee , set up for renegotiating the estranged power purchase agreement between us energy major enron - promoted dabhol power company and the state electricity board on saturday held its first internal meeting sans representatives of the multinational .

( statistical data included ) john d . schulz 03 / 26 / 2001 traffic world page 25 copyright 2001 gale group inc . all rights reserved . copyright 2001 journal of commerce , inc . truckers still waiting for signs of pent - up freight demand ; earnings shortfalls , layoffs loom if you are waiting for trucking to kick - start the nation ' s economic recovery , pull up a chair and wait awhile . trucking ceos say they haven ' t seen this slow a first quarter in a decade . "" perhaps the weakest first quarter for freight demand since swift became a public company in 1990 , "" phoenix - based swift transportation chairman and ceo jerry moyes said . the first - quarter trucking mantra historically has been this : everybody loses money in january , hopes for a break - even february and earns whatever profit there is in the quarter in march . that formula may not hold this year . gregory l . quesnel , president and ceo of con - way transportation services and emery worldwide parent cnf inc . , said the current slowdown was first detected late in the third quarter last year and has become "" more pronounced in each successive quarter . "" march , he said , has been "" as disappointing as the first two months this year . "" layoffs already are occurring at the major ltl carriers . yellow freight system has idled as many as 1 , 000 teamsters and hundreds of white - collar back - office workers . most large carriers are warning of profit shortfalls that will cause them to miss analysts ' first - quarter estimates . but there are deeper fears , too . marginal players may be forced into bankruptcy . small , family - owned carriers may be unable to exit the industry on their own terms because of the shocking decline in the value of used trucks that is causing some companies to be valued at less than half their worth of just two years ago . swift ' s volume drop - off began with shipments originating on the west coast in january and february and it is continuing in march , moyes said . coupled with reduced demand from the southwest , moyes said swift will not meet analysts ' first - quarter earnings expectations . swift is not alone . "" we hauled less freight in february than february a year ago , "" said bob hammel , executive vice president of pittsburgh - based pitt ohio express , a leading privately held eastern regional ltl carrier . "" the slowdown in manufacturing began in the middle of last year and it was precipitous . nobody anticipated the speed in which manufacturing demand fell off . "" even con - way , the most profitable ltl operation in the past five years , said it would have a decline in first - quarter operating income compared with the year - ago period . con - way ' s tonnage declines were estimated in the "" mid - single - digit "" percentage range . roadway express estimated that its current tonnage levels are running 10 to 11 percent below those a year ago , which will result in an approximately one - half of 1 percent ( 0 . 5 percent ) decline in its operating ratio . ( see sidebar ) pat hanley , overnite transportation ' s senior vice president and chief financial officer , said freight figures were flat in february year over year but rose slightly in march . overnite is the exception to the ltl industry with as many as 24 new terminals scheduled to be opened this year . "" january was pretty good to us , but february was flat . it ' s coming back in march . we ' re probably up in low single digits , 3 to 4 percent . we ' re picking back up . the economy has hurt us . if you had asked us at the start of the year , we ' d have said we ' d be up double - digits , "" hanley said . the national economic picture is "" a big concern , "" hanley said . "" we ' re not seeing pressure on prices , at least not so far . we ' re seeing customers ship 10 pallets a day instead of 20 . the shipment size is coming down . certainly we ' re concerned . we ' ll do o . k . , but not as great as we ' d like . "" forget consumer confidence surveys or the producer pricing index or whatever stars align in federal reserve board chairman alan greenspan ' s world . the genuine leading indicator of any national economic trend is trucking , which is always a first - in , first - out industry in any economic slowdown . to hear trucking industry leaders tell it , get comfortable with beans and franks for dinner . it ' s going to be awhile before it ' s filet mignon time again . shippers see what ' s happening as well but say it ' s still too early in the year for carriers to start cutting rates to fill empty trucks . "" all the carriers we talk with report flat or slightly declining business levels - - definitely slower than early last year , "" said bill huie , assistant vice president of corporate transportation for nch corp . , irving , texas . "" with a couple of exceptions , carriers we talk with have no plans for expansion in the next few months . we are getting feelers about some possible lane adjustments to boost revenue . but generally it appears a little early in the economic downturn for much price movement . "" the national ltl carriers are seeing the same things . "" our business is down pretty substantially for the first quarter , "" said roger dick , spokesman for yellow corp . , parent of yellow freight system and two large regional ltl carriers , jevic transportation , delanco , n . j . , and saia motor freight , duluth , ga . usfreightways corp . , citing what it called the nation ' s "" serious economic slowdown , "" said it expects first - quarter earnings to fall "" very substantially below "" current wall street consensus . extreme weather conditions also contributed to the already weakened operating environment , usf chairman , president and ceo samuel k . skinner added . "" traditionally , the first quarter builds momentum slowly , with march being the strongest month of the period , "" skinner said in a statement . "" this year , the economic slowdown of the fourth quarter of 2000 accelerated in january and february , softening even the normal modest expectations for those two months . "" it ' s not just the ltl industry that ' s hurting . the morgan stanley dean witter truckload freight index continues to show the worst demand - supply relationship since analyst james j . valentine began tracking the data in april 1994 . two events can cause weakness in the index , according to valentine . they are either an abundance of excess trucks on the road or weak freight demand . "" so far in 2001 , we have seen the confluence of both factors , but the fall - off in demand has far outpaced the increase in supply , "" valentine wrote in his most recent "" trucking snapshot "" for early march . year - to - date measurement for truckload demand is down 25 percent year over year , according to valentine ' s index , while supply is up only 7 percent . that would indicate the over capacity was a significant issue last year but was "" masked by the strong economy , "" valentine says . in a more ominous note , valentine believes overcapacity will continue to plague the truckload industry for the next one to two years . only a reaccelerating national economy can bring the demand - supply back in balance for the truckload sector in the near term , valentine predicts . the overproduction of new class 8 trucks from early 1998 through early last year has put too many trucks on the roads and caused supply to back up at manufacturers , wholesalers and other retailers . used trucks have lost on average more than 30 percent of their value over the past 18 months . anecdotally , one used truck dealer , music city truck & equipment , in lavergne , tenn . , is holding a "" two - for - one "" sale on three - to five - year - old class 8 freightliners . you can buy two for around $ 30 , 000 , less than a brand new chevy suburban suv . what that means is a trucker who bought a 1998 class 8 truck for $ 70 , 000 and depreciated half the value over three years has a piece of equipment on the books this year at $ 35 , 000 . but assuming it has lost 30 percent of that value , it may only be worth $ 24 , 500 in actuality . for a carrier with a 100 - truck fleet , that equates to a loss of more than $ 1 million on assets . the glut may last for a while , according to valentine ' s analysis . assuming a three - year trade - in cycle , most of the class 8 tractors in the truckload sector are just now rolling over to the used - truck market . that means that overcapacity will plague the truckload industry for at least the next year . that will result in some of the marginal carriers exiting the business , as did nearly 1 , 900 carriers last year that either closed or declared bankruptcy . "" we can see from indexes , surveys and other information available to us that it is unlikely there will be any significant improvement in march and freight demands will continue to be soft throughout the month . based on all of these factors , we expect usfreightways ' profits for the first quarter to be very substantially less than published analysts ' forecasts , "" skinner said . in addition , severe weather conditions including an earthquake in seattle , rainstorms in california and blizzards in the northeast have added cost and decreased efficiencies , skinner added . expectations at each of usf ' s operating companies have been affected , some more than others . the ltl , logistics , reverse logistics and freight - forwarding units are all showing decreased revenue and volume over a similar period last year , skinner said . further job cuts at usf worldwide , its freight forwarder , would be in the offing as cost controls at the unit would be "" accelerated "" in the wake of the softening economy , skinner said . late last year , skinner said the rebuilding process at usf worldwide would be a two - year process . but the worsening economy has made that rebuilding job harder , he said . "" we are seeing evidence that the slowing economy is , in fact , further impeding progress in this area , "" skinner said . "" during the fourth quarter of 2000 and continuing into the first quarter of 2001 , the company has taken steps to increase cost efficiencies . among these actions are a substantial cutback in capital spending and significant reductions in the labor force . these cost - control efforts will be accelerated to partially counterbalance the damaging impact of the current economic and weather conditions . "" in the 2000 first quarter , usf posted $ 22 . 3 million net income , a 27 percent rise from the $ 17 . 5 million earnings in the 1999 first quarter . at the time , that was usf ' s 15 th straight quarter - over - quarter earnings increase . it came on $ 608 . 2 million revenue , an 18 . 5 percent rise in from the $ 513 . 2 million revenue in the 1999 first quarter . analysts had been estimating usf to earn about $ 3 . 50 a share earnings for 2001 , compared with actual $ 3 . 61 earnings per share for all of last year . in the fourth quarter last year , usf earned $ 23 . 7 million , or 91 cents a share . trucking in a snapshot market what ' s going on msdw [ * ] truckload remains in record - low territory , indicating freight index the worst demand - supply relationship since msdw began tracking the date in april 1994 . diesel prices diesel prices in the first quarter of 2001 have come down 6 % sequentially from 4 qo 0 . however , the average price for the quarter remains 6 % above that of lqo 0 . wti oil opec recently agreed to reduce supply by 5 % and has stated a price objective of $ 25 per barrel . capacity retail sales of class 8 tractors ( new trucks entering the market ) came down in january , but inventory ( trucks that will enter the market at some point ) to sales ratio hit a new high of 3 . 4 months gdp 4 qo 0 gdp increased 1 . 1 % and economists see u . s . recession in 2001 with + 0 . 5 % and - 1 . 4 % gdp forecast for lqol and 2 qol , respectively . retail sales retail sales rose 0 . 7 % in january . while this was better than forecast , the upside was likely the result of excessive clearance sales after a disappointing holiday season . consumer the conference board ' s measure of consumer confidence confidence fell again ( nine points ) in february after registering the largest one - month decline in 10 years in january ( 14 points ) . napm the february napm rose slightly to 41 . 9 . however , it still indicates a contracting manufacturing sector . leading the index of leading economic indicators economic rose 0 . 8 % in january , while indicator msdw had forecast a 0 . 6 % increase . this represents the first rise in four months . stock after a recent pullback , trucking stocks remain perfonnance up year - to - date with tl stocks up 5 % , regional ltl stocks up 9 % and national ltl stocks up 13 % . investor for the week ended february 28 , mutual fund outflows totaled $ 309 million , compared with inflows of $ 2 billion in the prior week . market implications msdw [ * ] truckload negative for all tl carriers . freight index diesel prices the downward trend is positive for all carriers , especially tl carriers , which have greater exposure to fuel than ltl carriers . wti oil negative for all carriers , as $ 25 per barrel is still 25 % higher than the $ 20 per barrel average since 1990 . capacity negative for tl carriers , not a major concern for ltl carriers , which measure capacity by the number of terminals . gdp negative for all carriers . retail sales negative for both ti and ltl carriers . consumer negative for all carriers confidence napm negative for all carriers . leading positive for all carriers . economic indicator stock positive , however , stocks could pull perfonnance back further in the short term as fundamentals catch up . investor negative . source : morgan stanley dean witter research",0

"Subject: vince and vasant : here is a brief summary of my meeting with chris germany , capacity trader at the east desk , related to gas transmission : typically , pipelines lease capacity billed on a monthly basis . an example might be the pipeline between south texas and brooklyn , where you might pay $ 12 . 00 per month per 10 , 000 decatherms of capacity ( $ 0 . 40 per day ) , a fixed payment . variable charges are 6 % for fuel costs ( "" shrinkage "" ) and 6 . 5 % for overhead expenses . a gas trader might call south texas and be quoted a delivery price tomorrow of nymex - $ 0 . 10 ( "" basis "" ) , and might call brooklyn and be quoted a delivered price of nymex + $ 0 . 25 . the trader ' s spread is $ 0 . 35 , and variable costs of transmission are $ 0 . 125 , so the trader would offer the leaseholder of capacity up to $ 0 . 225 for firm capacity tomorrow . as for the distinction betweem firm and interruptible , the leaseholders have an excellent knowledge of the firm - equivalent of interruptible capacity . also , many pipelines don ' t discount firm capacity from the tariff maximum ( "" it ' s not worth their time to haggle "" ) ( there is a further issue of "" secondary markets "" not important to the model yet ) . for south texas and brooklyn , there are several different routes the gas can physically take ( pipelines of enron , texas eastern , etc ) . and , once the trade is in the system traders can cover the ( enron ) positions on each end of the pipeline , in so doing freeing up the capacity for other contracts . clayton",0

"Subject: preface for book vince , ? hope you are well . ? we spoke a while ago about who should write the preface for the book , and you kindly offered that you would provide this . ? is this still possible ? ? we realise that you are extremely busy , so chris and les went ahead and wrote something , which is below , and if you want to review , change or re - write ? the preface , that would be very appreciated . ? let me know what your thoughts are . ? thanks , julie ( we ' re getting close ) ? ? preface ? ? ? one of our main objectives in writing energy derivatives : pricing and risk management has been to bring together as many of the various approaches for the pricing and risk management energy derivatives as possible , to discuss in - depth the models , and to show how they relate to each other . ? in this way we hope to help the reader to analyse the different models , price a wide range of energy derivatives , or to build a risk management system which uses a consistent modelling framework . ? we believe that for practitioners this last point is very important and we continue to stress in our articles and presentations the dangers of having flawed risk management and giving arbitrage opportunities to your competitors by using ad - hoc and inconsistent models for different instruments and markets ( see also others who propose consistent models ? ) . ? however , it is not our wish to concentrate on one particular model or models , at the exclusion of the others because we believe that the choice should rest with the user ( although it will probably be clear from our discussions the model ( s ) we prefer ) . ? we therefore try and give as clear account as possible of the advantage and disadvantages of all the models so that the reader can make an informed choice as to the models which best suit their needs . ? in order to meet our objectives the book is divided into 11 chapters . ? in chapter 1 we give an overview of the fundamental principals needed to model and price energy derivatives which will underpin the remainder of the book . ? in addition to introducing the techniques that underlie the black - scholes modelling framework we outline the numerical techniques of trinomial trees and monte carlo simulation for derivative pricing , which are used throughout the book . ? in chapter 2 we discuss the analysis of spot energy prices . ? as well as analysing empirical price movements we propose a number of processes that can be used to model the prices . ? we look at the well - know process of geometric brownian motion as well as mean reversion , stochastic volatility and jump processes , discussing each and showing how they can be simulated and their parameters estimated . ? chapter 3 , written by vince kaminski , grant masson and ronnie chahal of enron corp . , discusses volatility estimation in energy commodity markets . ? this chapter builds on the previous one . ? it examines in detail the methods , merits and pitfalls of the volatility estimation process assuming different pricing models introduced in chapter 2 . ? examples from crude , gas , and electricity markets are used to illustrate the technical and interpretative aspects of calculating volatility . ? chapter 4 examines forward curves in the energy markets . ? although such curves are well understood and straight - forward in the most financial markets , the difficulty of storage in many energy markets leads to less well defined curves . ? in this chapter we describe forward price bounds for energy prices and the building of forward curves from market instruments . ? we outline the three main approaches which have been applied to building forward curves in energy markets ; the arbitrage approach , the econometric approach , and deriving analytical values by modelling underlying stochastic factors . ? chapter 5 presents an overview of structures found in the energy derivative markets and discusses their uses . ? examples of products analysed in this chapter include a variety of swaps , caps , floors and collars , as well as energy swaptions , compound options , asian options , barrier options , lookback options , and ladder options . ? chapter 6 investigates single and multi - factor models of the energy spot price and the pricing of some standard energy derivatives . ? closed form solutions for forward prices , forward volatilities , and european option prices both on the spot and forwards are derived and presented for all the models in this chapter including a three factor , stochastic convenience yield and interest rate model . ? chapter 7 shows how the prices of path dependent and american style options can be evaluated for the models in chapter 6 . ? simulation schemes are developed for the evaluation of european style options and applied to a variety of path dependent options . ? in order to price options which incorporate early exercise opportunities , a trinomial tree scheme is developed . ? this tree is built to be consistent with the observed forward curve and can be used to price exotic as well as standard european and american style options . ? chapter 8 describes a methodology for valuing energy options based on modelling the whole of the market observed forward curve . ? the approach results in a multi - factor model that is able to realistically capture the evolution of a wide range of energy forward curves . ? the user defined volatility structures can be of an extremely general form . ? closed - form solutions are developed for pricing standard european options , and efficient monte carlo schemes are presented for pricing exotic options . ? the chapter closes with a discussion of the valuation of american style options . ? chapter 9 focuses on the risk management of energy derivative positions . ? in this chapter we discuss the management of price risk for institutions that trade options or other derivatives and who are then faced with the problem of managing the risk through time . ? we begin with delta hedging a portfolio containing derivatives and look at extensions to gamma hedging ) illustrating the techniques using both spot and forward curve models . ? the general model presented in chapter 8 is ideally suited to multi - factor hedging of a portfolio of energy derivatives and this is also discussed . ? chapter 10 examines the key risk management concept of value at risk ( var ) applied to portfolios containing energy derivative products . ? after discussing the concept of the measure , we look at how the key inputs ( volatilities , covariances , correlations , etc ) can be estimated . ? we then compare the fours major methodologies for computing var ; delta , delta - gamma , historical simulation and monte - carlo simulation , applying each to the same portfolio of energy options . ? in this chapter we also look at testing the var estimates for various underlying energy market variables . ? finally , in chapter 11 we review modelling approaches to credit risk . ? we look in detail at two quite different approaches , creditmetrics ( j . p . morgan ( 1997 ) ) and creditrisk + ( credit suisse financial products ( 1997 ) ) for which detailed information is publicly available . ? together these provide an extensive set of tools with which to measure credit risk . ? we present numerical examples of applying these techniques to energy derivatives . ? before we begin we stress that the models and methods we present in this book are tools which should be used with the benefit of an understanding of how both the + tool , and the market works . ? the techniques we describe are certainly not & magic wands 8 which can be waved at data and risk management problems to provide instant and perfect solutions . ? to quote from the riskmetrics technical document & ( no amount of sophisticated analytics will replace experience and professional judgement in managing risk . 8 . ? however , the right tools , correctly used make the job a lot easier !",0

"Subject: packet analysis software hi stinson , as per our discussion , here is the e - mail from jim on the subject . i convinced jim that this type of modeling effort is our gig and he completely agrees . as per jim ' s suggestion , he and i will talk more on the product while we are in denver . i suspect that we will arrange for the vendor to come to houston and do a presentation on the product and install the product on our machines . as for additional development we should get john bloomer and jim together in a meeting and hash out the requirements from john bloomer ' s perspective . using vince ' s analogy , this tool allows us to deternime the size of the cargo space needed for fedex - like delivery ( our streaming media products ) . whereas , the optical light path switching ( ds - 3 , oc - 3 , oc - 12 and oc - 48 ) based trading will reserve the underlying airline routes , etc . so the packet based stuff is looking at the required capacity from ip layer ( network and transport : level 3 and 4 ) requirements . the optical light path is level 1 & 2 based requirements . that is this tool will allow john bloomer to size ( actually we will do the analysis for him ) the capacity requirement that he would need for the products that he is developing . that is my take on the difference , we ' ll find out otherwise . once i finish off this discussion with jim in denver , i suggest putting martin lin on the job to find out more about the product and do the leg work to arrange for vendor demo and software installation . martin will keep samer and chonawee updated on the information that he gathers . martin please start checking on the web about this company and other similiar produts . i will get you contact number for ebs and the vendor as soon as jim provides them to me . avici uses this product . avici is a next generation router vendor that is selling terabit routers . ebs is an investor in that company . ravi . - - - - - forwarded by ravi thuraisingham / enron communications on 03 / 08 / 00 03 : 47 pm - - - - - jim irvine 03 / 08 / 00 12 : 33 pm to : ravi thuraisingham / enron communications @ enron communications cc : subject : ravi attached is an overview of what opnet technologies itdg and modeler ( v ) 7 . 0 offers out of the box . as previously mentioned , we have purchased this s / w and are discussing potential co - development of module ( s ) currently not supported . my belief is we can spin up a couple of your studs and develop our own stuff faster @ a fraction of the cost . avici , used opnet to develop a circuit emulation model for their tsr and cisco used opnet for mpls and dpt modeling . these guys are willing brides at this point . we just need to clearly identify their role in the network performance management and modeling space . we will have to talk more in denver . my flight arrives @ 10 : 00 ish and i am told that rental cars are scarce . jim - - - - - forwarded by jim irvine / enron communications on 03 / 08 / 00 10 : 18 am - - - - - mvaghedi @ mil 3 . com 01 / 12 / 00 02 : 10 pm to : jim irvine / enron communications @ enron communications cc : subject : - version 7 . 0 capability list - final - vl . 3 . 00 . doc mani vaghedi mil 3 , inc . itdg sales engineer tel .

"Subject: pserc denver meeting vince , the pserc meeting lance and i went to was both interesting and boring . pserc has 11 school members and 30 industry members . its research program consists of three stems : markets , transmission and distribution , and systems . ( enron ' s interests probably lie mainly in the first stem . ) in morning of the first day , researchers from universities presented their project proposals . i found some of them quite interesting . for example , shmuel oren , fernando alvarado , tim mount ( of cornell ) propose to study "" market redesign : incorporating the lessons learned from actual experiences for enhancing market design , "" shijie deng , s . oren et al propose to study "" power asset valuation model in a market - based and reliability - constrained electric power system . "" the first got funded but the second did not . in the same afternoon industry and academic separated to have their own discussion . i went to the academic discussion and lance the industry one . i hope my presence there did not make things worse , for the discussion revealed a lot of organizational chaos and confusion . the proposal screen process got a lot of heat from participants . the proposal process goes as follows : researchers first write a short proposal to appropriate stem committee ( no industry participantion , it seems to me ) , each committee then ranks the proposal and selects the top 3 or 4 . the selected proposals are then expanded to be present to the industry . industry then gets to vote which proposals get funded . however , some researchers were very unhappy about the initial ranking and selection process . there were accusation of self - ranking , communication between stem committee and member schools breaking down , and so on . some were even asking for some sort of assurance that the project will be funded even before wrting it ( the arguement was "" then it was a waste of our time to write proposals "" , which i found quite amusing ) . all in all , i found the process was not taken seriously enough by university researchers . pserc has been established for 5 years now and it still does not have a proper proposal screen process , which is hard to believe . also , the communication among university researchers , between stem committee and member schools , and most importantly , between researchers and industry , are not smooth as all . since the proposals are voted by 30 or so industry members , the "" right "" projects may not get funded . too many participants also make the decision process very indecisive and quite painful to watch ( lance can comment on this better ) . they also wanted to spread the fund among all schools which made the voting a less authoritive . i believe enron will not get much returns from join pserc ( price tag is $ 40 , 000 per company per year ) . if we find some projects interesting , we can sponsor the schools in the form of summer interns , the schools claim that most of the fund goes to support students anyway . alex",0

"Subject: marketpoint license agreement john / vince : i really enjoyed the meeting the other day with you and a broad cross section of your people . thank you very much for setting it up , and thank you for giving me the opportunity to speak with your people . as i mentioned to john , i am sending you the license paperwork for marketpoint . i have attached our standard license agreement for your consideration . as i mentioned , the license agreement covers the entire bundled product , which includes ? north american gas , short and long term ? north american electricity , short and long term ? world gas ? western european gas ? world oil we are just finishing porting the world oil , world gas , and western european gas models over from our old ( now obsolete ) software system into marketpoint , so they will not be fully tested and complete for a couple of months . however , the gas and electricity models for north america are presently complete and tested . that should allow us to give you an attractive price before the full worldwide toolkit is available throughout your worldwide business . as i understood it , you will want the gas modeling capability first and will want to defer decisions on electric or other capability . as i mentioned at the meeting , we are prepared to offer that for approximately the fully bundled price . as you read the license agreement , you will see that the software licenses for $ 100 , 000 annually , the gas data for $ 5 , 000 , and the electric data for $ 10 , 000 . marketpoint will agree to license you the gas model plus the data for the software license plus the data license for a total of $ 55 , 000 annually . this is just under the fully bundled price . i think that is consistent with the discussions at our meeting , and from marketpoint , s perspective would provide a great basis to move forward together with enron . if or when enron ever desires to & scale up 8 to another model or model ( s ) from the marketpoint portfolio , we will simply scale you up to the entire license agreement . this will allow you to decouple the gas decision from any other decisions you might make . ( i will be glad to put this additional pricing provision into the agreement if you decide to move forward . ) i felt i was able to communicate the philosophy , scope , and operation of our approach during the meeting and to deliver you much of the information you might need to evaluate whether marketpoint meets your needs . i thought you were able to see the depth and sophistication of the product yet at the same time its simplicity and effectiveness . i thought you were able to see the benefits of the marketpoint dimension of economic equilibrium as a complement and supplement to other approaches you will assuredly use . i would be interested in your impressions and those of your colleagues . i look forward to your response and to moving ahead together . we view you as a very important prospective customer and client and will work with you to earn and secure your business . if you decide to license marketpoint , we can arrange to transfer and mount marketpoint and the short term narg model ( which is the model we suggest you begin with ) and travel to houston to deliver our 1 day training seminar . our clients are usually very fluent after that 1 day training seminar . thereafter , we would want you to work with the short term narg model for a few weeks while you get up to speed , very fluent , and very comfortable before you take delivery of the longer term version of narg several weeks later . thanks again , and all the best . if there is some item from the meeting that i might have forgotten to send , please remind me . my notes don ' t show anything , but i was speaking a lot rather than writing notes during the meeting and might have overlooked something someone wanted . dale nesbitt president marketpoint inc . 27121 adonna ct . los altos hills , ca 94022 ( 650 ) 218 - 3069 dale . nesbitt @ marketpointinc . com - license . doc",0

i ' m not thinking of any preparation , but more of an informal discussion of the "" philosophical issues "" related to real options work . jim - - - - - original message - - - - - from : jim dyer sent : thursday , march 30 , 2000 1 : 24 pm to : ' jclevenger @ optionii . bus . utexas . edu ' subject : re : real options course feedback josh , some very thoughtful observations . as you know , i had invited one finance professor to our class on arundel , but he was out of town . i do plan to invite sheridan titman to discuss the issue of using the option models in situations where there is no underlying security that is traded . i do think it is important to face that issue , which is actually covered at a theoretical level in our last couple of readings . the issue of volatility is also an excellent issue for further discussion , as you suggest . so far , we ' ve been looking at cases where volatility is "" given "" . the problem of finding an "" objective "" measure of volatility for a project reminds me of the problem of finding the correct risk adjusted discount rate , which is not surprising since the concepts are almost two sides of the same plate . one approach , of course , is to do some modeling using traditional decision analysis tools , including subjective probabilities , but the finance people who write options articles don ' t like to think about such ideas . i ' ll try to address these issues in more detail as the semester continues . i think it was important to surface some of these points early , and to come back to them after we have seen how to apply the methods in a naive sort of way . thanks for the feedback and comments . jim - - - - - original message - - - - - from : jclevenger @ optionii . bus . utexas . edu sent : thursday , march 30 , 2000 8 : 42 am to : jim . dyer @ bus . utexas . edu cc : josh - clevenger @ reliantenergy . com subject : real options course feedback after overcoming the initial ( i hope ) overload of materials and tools presented thus far in the semester , it appears to me that you are achieving the objective of making us comfortable with optionality valuation as applied to a variety of problems which are outside the borders defined by a liquid market of traded financial elements . as a constructive feedback , you have been forthright with us in marking off areas of this subject which are still controversial . i also realize that rightly so , real - world application of this type of analysis without a robust understanding of finance may degenerate into a succession of assumptions that result in a "" house of cards "" effect . my opinion at this point is that two issues are of potentially "" make - or - brake "" importance if i am to persuade my superiors to accept these methods for valuations outside the realm of projects whose value is primarily driven by the value of commodities backed by financial instruments . these issues are easy to guess : 1 ) discounting and risk free rates : i do not sense that anyone in the class has put forth convincing arguments as to the proper application of time value questions in the absence of liquidity . is there someone within the finance department that can present a firmer position on this question ? 2 ) volatility : i found winston ' s examples on this metric succinct . i would recommend that in future years you dedicate some hours of class time to this subject . my criticism again relates to messy problems . i anticipate arguments against real option applications based on the dispute of volatility measures . if i were a conservative financial manager , i would argue that : * * * two - a : implied volatility derived from an industry specific slice of equity options is a shotgun approach - - the projects being valued are of a tranche which may in fact have a significantly different outcome variance than the weighted average measured by the equities utilized . oil , gas and electricty are good examples the major players are competing on many different levels of the value chain . smaller companies do exist which are dedicated to one strata , but what about projects that want to exploit opportunies across strata in a vertically integrated company ? * * * two - b : based on the following skepticism - if a real option value is being proposed for a new business venture ( some new unexploited opportunity , ) there is some paradox embedded in the increased value based on high volatility in new ventures and the high risk of failure . this skepticism is likely to be less acute in high - tech sectors where the huge upside of new ventures is paraded before us daily by nasdq touts . it is a much harder sell to "" mature "" industries . of particular interest in the power industry are investments centered around opportunities arising from restructuring of electricity and natural gas sectors as regulation is removed . a large proportion of the risk is embedded in ongoing changes of public policy on an international basis . as an intentionally screwed - up example , can anyone other than a financial genius correctly asses volatility for u . s . companies investing in seed projects in mexico based on speculation of the inevitable dismantling of the national utility ( cfe ) and pemex ?

"Subject: var for metals it is my preference to have an aggregated var methodology for the metals business as soon as possible ( version la ) . i do not want to poison progress with my opiniion , but i think that the critical first step is to find a way to aggregate positions in coarse buckets , perhaps sacrificing precision for speed , based on "" rules "" that oerations can deliver , research can stand behind and commercial will accept . , and using an equally coarse var calculation ( the equivalent of ad - hoc var ? ) that can be delivered to the "" official books and records "" on a daily basis . this i believe would be acceptable for a 2 - 3 month time frame ( at which time we get versionlb ) as opposed to waiting 2 - 3 months to implement a better process and have nothing in the interim . ultimately , i would look for version 2 a to be delivered and very defendable by 1 / 1 / 01 . this will require indulgence and compromise on all fronts but i cannot conceive of a better way . please let me know if this is consistent with your understanding . a critical point from my perspective is that the mg commercial team and metal operations staff understand their role in making this happen and willingness to accept the consequences . i look for you to take the lead as leader of the integration to do so . if you need any input from the rest of us to underscore the importance please let us know . as i alluded to on the phone , the people in houston that have been involved in the var process have been through an extraordinary period of detailed scrutiny of var by commercial and have been hindered by the lack of basic understanding by all parties as their responsibilities . given the distance and the newness of the metals personell , i fear that this could set us all up for some surprises and some very uncomfortable communication , much of which is not entirely necessary . thanks ted eric gadd 07 / 21 / 2000 11 : 46 am to : ted murphy / hou / ect @ ect , bjorn hagelmann / hou / ect @ ect cc : richard sage / lon / ect @ ect subject : attached fax ted and bjorn - we plan to release draft recommendations on metal position limits by close of business on 24 july and have asked vince to prepare a v @ r computational methodology prior to the 7 / 8 aug bod meeting .",0

"Subject: non - firm power curve building hi vince , amitava and i have received a request to build a non - firm power curve for each region from david hoog ' s double trigger folks . the objective , as they explain it , is to allow the desk to buy non - firm from the market , buy david ' s outage product , and sell firm to the market . accountants would like a curve to mark the non - firm position . my initial thought is that the desk should provide this non - firm curve , but it seems that this market is very illiquid and they are reluctant so they have put the ball in david hoog ' s court to build the curve if david wants to sell his product internally to the desk . assuming we build the curve , the next issue is how to define "" non - firm "" ? the only way i can think of is to tie the non - firmness to a specific generation unit or group of units . this will allow the purchase of david ' s outage product to cover the non - firmness risk . tying the definition of non - firmness to a whole region seems implausible - - - what does it mean to give a marketer the option to not deliver power if there is any problem anywhere in the region ? consequently , the non - firm curve takes on a unit - level interpretation , and not a region - level interpretation . consequently , i do not see how we can talk about the "" non - firm curve for the region "" ? we will need to build a non - firm curve for each generation unit or group of units . maybe i could get your thoughts later today . thanks , vasant",0

' state govt . to renegotiate dabhol power project , by hubert vaz the economic times , friday apr 27 2001 dpc board empowers md to cancel mseb contract the enron power project crisis on thursday deepened with the board of dabhol power company authorising the management to issue a termination notice to the maharashtra state electricity board even while international lenders to the project asked enron to renegotiate power purchase agreement signed with the mseb . the decision to authorise managing director neil mcgregor to issue "" notice of termination on the contract to sell 740 mw of power "" was taken after the board prevented mseb from voting on the ground that it was an interested party . the decision was taken with six votes in favour and the single opposition vote was cast by idbi , sources said . according to reports , financial institutions such as anz investment bank , credit suisse first boston , citibank , abn - amro and the state bank of india have on wednesday advised enron against terminating its ppa with mseb . mseb chairman vinay bansal , who with two other directors attended the meeting on wednesday representing maharashtra ' s 15 per cent stake in the near $ 3 - billion project , said : "" the indian side told them that it would be unfortunate if enron broke the contract . "" while bansal declined comment on the board decision , the sources said the indian side had expressed its interest to holds talks on the issue rather than terminating the project and there were possibilities of a fresh power purchase agreement between the company and the state . ( pti ) the economic times , friday apr 27 2001 mseb pays rs 134 cr under ' protest ' to dpc despite the threat of a possible termination notice hanging on its head , maharashtra state electricity board on thursday made a "" protest payment "" of rs 134 crore disputed amount , towards march bill of rs 146 . 64 crore to dabhol . "" we were ready with the payment on wednesday itself , but dpc officials could not collect the cheque due to the statewide bandh "" , a senior mseb official said . "" we have disputed payment of rs 12 . 64 crore and it would be now taken up at the disputes resolution forum , of which enron india managing director k wade cline and krishna rao are members "" , mseb sources said . last week , dpc had dashed off a communication to the government and mseb that it would not accept "" protest payments "" anymore . cline had said the energy major shall treat such payments as an election to pay the sums , which mseb in fact owed dpc in full and that the company would also not recognise the "" purported protest or reservation "" . mseb had paid a rs 113 . 5 crore february bill in protest last month . on april 23 last , both domestic and international lenders of dpc had met in london and held exhaustive discussions the multinational ' s move to issue a termination notice to mseb and state government . ( pti ) business standard , friday , april 27 , 001 enron india md authorised to terminate ppa the board of the enron - promoted dabhol power company ( dpc ) , at its meeting in london on wednesday , authorised the managing director of enron india to issue a notice for terminating the power purchase agreement to the maharashtra state electricity board and the state government . "" the board has authorised wade cline to serve the termination notice . however , this does not mean that the termination notice will be served immediately . it is only an enabling provision and will be used only if the situation arises , "" a state government source told business standard from london . he said dpc was under pressure from its lenders . the dpc spokesperson here refused to comment on the issue . the hardening of the board ' s stand is in sharp contrast to the advice of dpc ' s lenders , who had warned enron not to precipitate matters by issuing a termination notice . the lenders had arrived at a consensus that the termination notice need not be served at this stage . serving of the notice requires a nod from the lenders , who have an exposure of about $ 2 billion in the project . sources said given the lenders ' strong opposition to termination of the contract , the enron board ' s "" enabling resolution "" did not have much significance beyond conveying a hardening of its stand with regard to the current imbroglio . the maharashtra chief minister had warned enron not to scuttle the process of crisis resolution by issuing a termination notice . the state government is to nominate an expert group to renegotiate the terms of the dabhol contract . enron holds 65 per cent in dpc , while us - based ge and bechtel hold 10 per cent each . the balance 15 per cent is held by mseb through a special purpose vehicle , maharashtra power development corporation . the mseb representatives were not allowed to vote at the meeting since they were an interested party . the idbi representative protested against the board ' s decision . the meeting was attended by state energy secretary vm lal . the meeting was held against the backdrop of a dispute between mseb and dpc over payment of bills . after mseb failed to pay rs 102 crore towards the december 2000 bill , dpc invoked the state government ' s guarantee and then the union government ' s counter guarantee . when payment of the rs 127 - crore january bill became overdue , dpc again invoked the state government ' s guarantee . mseb retaliated on january 28 , 2001 by slapping a rs 401 - crore penalty for non - supply of electricity at adequate levels . it demanded that dpc adjust the bills against this penalty . "" this stand of mseb was explained to dpc at the board meeting "" , a state government official said . the centre also supported mseb ' s stand and refused to honour the counter guarantee . the power company then invoked the political force majeure clause . a process of conciliation and arbitration between the centre and dpc is currently on . the financial express , friday , april 27 , 2001 foreign lenders slam brakes on disbursements to dpc , sanjay jog & raghu mohan global banks comfortable with enron pull - out lenders to the dabhol power company ( dpc ) are a sharply divided lot . international lenders , in direct contrast to the stand taken by local ones led by the the industrial develoment bank of india ( idbi ) , are categorical that additional assistance to dpc ' s phase - ii will be held in abeyance despite the completion of 92 per cent of the project work . the stage is also set for a preliminary termination notice to be served by dpc to the maharashtra state electricity board ( mseb ) within the next four weeks . this follows the authorisation given to enron india ' s managing director k wade cline and dpc president & ceo neil mcgregor to serve the termination notice , and transfer notices to mseb , following wednesday ' s dpc board meeting in london . the essence of the message from the international lenders following the london meeting with dpc board is : emotions do not work . contractual obligations and payments have to be met . we are convinced that the mseb has failed to meet its obligations . there is no point in enron continuing with the project and the company should get out of it . the structuring of dpc ' s debt has created two classes of lenders . in phase - i , international lenders are covered by a sovereign guarantee while in phase - ii , no lender is . however , all lenders have a parri passu charge , making attachment of assets a messy affair . sources in international banks were quick to point out that local lenders to phase - ii of the project are worried that an awry dpc project will affect their interests more given that they have no security - other than assets - like a sovereign cover . "" it was this desperation that made local lenders like idbi slash the interest rates a few months back to 16 . 5 per cent from 21 . 5 per cent , "" a leading foreign banker pointed out . three points that were made clear and stressed in no uncertain terms by international lenders were : a ) there are contractual obligations b ) mseb was not punctual in its payments to dpc and c ) mseb adopted a confrontational position by slapping a rs 401 crore rebate charge on dpc for misdeclaration and default on the availability of power . while local lenders led by idbi - with mseb parroting the same - were of the view that the current situation is a temporary one , international lenders were steadfast that pulling out of the project is the only way out . this is despite the stance taken by idbi and mseb that authorisation for termination given to mr cline and mr mcgregor was not called for . international bankers pointed out that they will now have to look at the issue of charges and protection for their loans in the event of the power project being scrapped in its present form . the points of contention are : a ) that phase - i of dpc is backed by a sovereign guarantee b ) phase - ii is not and c ) to the extent that phase - ii is covered by assets , cancellation of phase - ii may see all assets - even those under phase - i - getting attached . therefore , an examination on the segregation of assets under phase - i and phase - ii is now warranted . pti adds : in a significant move , dpc board has empowered its management to sever power supply agreement with mseb , a move that could inflict a financial liability of about rs 2840 crore on the centre . a decision to authorise dpc president neil mcgregor to issue a termination notice to mseb for sale of power was taken by the board at its meeting on wednesday . the indian express , friday , april 27 , 2001 enron : dabhol chief gets powers to end deal with the mseb the board of dabhol power company , a subsidiary of houston - based enron corp , has decided to warn the maharashtra state electricity board ( mseb ) that it intends to pull the plug on its guhagar - based project . in a board meeting held in london on wednesday , the board decided to authorise dpc president and ceo neil mcgregor and enron india ' s managing director k wade cline to serve a ' ' preliminary ' ' termination notice for sale of power to the mseb within the next four weeks . the dabhol project has been mired in disputes since mseb began missing payments last year . mseb owes dabhol power $ 48 million for power delivered in december and january . the payment ran into a dispute after mseb slapped penalty notices of rs 401 crore on dpc for its failure to supply power within three hours of the demand being placed . but mseb has paid $ 24 million for february . and a payment of $ 31 million was made for march on thursday . the $ 3 billion dabhol project is the largest foreign investment made in india to date . issuing the preliminary termination notice could enable dabhol to suspend deliveries as it negotiates payment disputes . while a preliminary termination notice is the first of three steps that could potentially lead to the abandonment of the project by enron , analysts have described the decision as a ' ' procedural ' ' move consistent with dpc ' s negotiating strategy to recover overdue payments from the mseb . after the company issues the preliminary termination notice , step two would be an official termination notice , and step three would be a notice that the company is surrendering control of the project . if the project is terminated , the government of india will have to take a hit of $ 300 million besides paying bills of rs 1 , 500 crore for the next one year to enron as penalty . ' ' our ( centre ' s ) liability , if dabhol power project is terminated , would be one year ' s electricity bill and a termination fee of $ 300 million , ' ' power secretary a k basu said . ' ' contractually , the centre will have to pay one year ' s electricity bill , totalling at present prices about rs 1 , 400 - 1 , 500 crore , and take over dpc ' s debt , which stands at around $ 300 million , if the project was terminated , ' ' basu said in delhi . dabhol power is in the process of completing the second phase of the 2 , 184 - megawatt power - plant project , which is 95 per cent through . while the international lenders to the project are pressurising the company to get out of the project , indian lenders , led by idbi , are asking the company to reconsider its decision on its termination notice . during the meeting in london , mseb which holds a 15 per cent stake in the project , had strongly opposed dpc ' s move to authorise cline and mcgregor to issue notices for termination . mseb chairman vinay bansal and technical director prem paunikar - both directors on the dpc board - and the state principal secretary ( energy ) vm lal , an invitee to the board , raised the issue at the board meeting in london . mseb claimed that dpc was needlessly ' ' threatening ' ' to issue various arbitration notices and thereby interpreting the clauses of ppa in isolation . in recent weeks , dabhol has raised the stakes in its spat with the mseb , delivering a notice of political force majeure to maharashtra - a step typically invoked to dissolve a contract in case of an emergency like a war , coup , or a similar radical political event . in this case , dpc ' s move was viewed as a threat to stop providing electricity . dpc has come under fire because of the relatively high cost of its power . critics object to the company charging rs 7 . 1 a kilowatt - hour for its power , compared with around rs 1 . 5 a kilowatt - hour charged by other suppliers . the hindu , friday , april 27 , 2001 offer of renegotiation ' too late ' : enron , by mahesh vijapurkar mumbai , april 26 . the enron - sponsored dabhol power company , which last night authorised its local management to issue a notice of termination of its power purchase agreement ( ppa ) with the maharashtra state electricity board , has decided to keep a stiff upper lip . this , in turn , has stoked speculation that the switching off of power from its phase i plant was imminent , while in reality , a lengthy procedure has to be followed as prescribed within the ppa . as one source familiar with the ppa told the hindu , ` ` it is not sudden death of the project ' ' and in all probability , the dpc , vexed with the developments , including sharp and pointed observations by the godbole committee , has chosen to only arm itself with a serious option . ` ` this would only eventually come into effect . it is not an overnight operation and a lot of legal work is involved ' ' . apparently , the dpc intends to do some arm - twisting . at the board of directors meeting in london , which maharashtra was initially disinclined to attend but later used the forum to put across its contentions on the project , the dpc squarely told the mseb nominees on the board that the offer of renegotiation had come rather ` ` too late ' ' . it also said it did not see any room for optimism about the outcome . it did not , however , rule out the option of talks , thus underscoring the possibility that the decision to authorise termination was a new weapon . the maharashtra chief minister , mr . vilasrao deshmukh , had hoped that dpc would not take any ` ` harsh step ' ' which would cause lot of damage to the interests of both the independent power producer and the government and today he expressed his dismay . in fact , the mandate of the team that went , on the strength of its stake in the dpc , was to put across the idea that negotiation was the requirement and not confrontation . echo in ls the enron issue also echoed in the lok sabha today where the power minister , mr . suresh prabhu , said that scrapping of the agreement would cost the centre rs . 2 , 840 crores , whose liability in the project agreement was limited . the centre ' s liability in case of termination is one year ' s electricity bill and a termination fee of $ 300 million . blow to fis the termination could prove to be a serious blow to the indian financial institutions ( fis ) which , under the leadership of the idbi , were trying to convince the other lenders of the project against the notice . the exposure of indian fis in the project is understood to be not covered by any guarantee either of the centre or the state . the times of india , friday , 27 april 2001 enron ready to pull out , but lenders say wait the dabhol power company board , which met on wednesday in london , authorised the company management to issue a termination notice to the maharashtra state electricity board . the company , however , may not pull out of the project yet , considering its lenders , who met on monday , opposed such a move and favoured renegotiations . sources present during both the meetings said that though foreign lenders supported enron on the termination issue , domestic financial institutions , led by the industrial development bank of india , prevailed over the deliberations to oppose any such drastic move . enron needs the lenders ' consent to file a pre - termination notice for pulling out from the project . the decision to empower dpc chief wade cline to issue a termination notice was taken with six votes in favour against a single idbi vote against such a move . another significant development during the entire proceedings was that the financial institutions made it clear that further funding of phase ii of the project will depend on the government of india assuring payment mechanisms . institutions are yet to disburse about 30 per cent of the sanctioned package , which is crucial for completing the phase ii expansion project . ` ` the board has given powers to wade cline to issue a pre - termination notice . but the meeting quite unanimously felt the need of the hour is not to terminate the project but to initiate serious re - negotiation proceedings , ' ' said mseb chairman vinay bansal , who attended the board meeting . ` ` mseb presented their views to the board members and it was understood by enron which also included the rs 401 crore penalty issue which is heading for arbitration proceedings . ` ` we have also made it clear that the tariff structure of enron is quite high and a downward revision of tariffs is unavoidable , "" bansal added . ` ` they cannot issue a termination notice without our consent since our exposure in the project is quite large and the lenders should approve any plans in that direction , ' ' said a top banker who was present during the lenders ' meet . ` ` there is a general consensus that the project must be completed and the proposal to terminate the ppa should be kept in abeyance , ' ' he added . the global arrangers for the dpc include anz investment bank , credit suisse first boston , abn - amro , citibank and the state bank of india , where all these parties conducted separate meetings with the company officials . however , some bankers said the company can file a termination notice even if one lender with a minimum 5 per cent exposure on the project favours such proceedings . meanwhile , in a clear reversal of roles , maharashtra chief minister vilasrao deshmukh said that the state government was not keen on terminating the ppa . ` ` we will ask them to refrain from taking any such harsh steps since that would be bad news for all of us , including dpc , ' ' deshmukh said . deshmukh was echoing union power minister suresh prabhu ' s sentiments , who said that the government wanted an amicable settlement of the payment row . he , however , added that termination of the project would not hurt foreign investments , and dismissed warnings by analysts that winding up the $ 2 . 9 billion project would be a blow to india ' s efforts to woo foreign investors . the dpc has already slapped one conciliation notice on the centre and three arbitration notices on the state government over non - payment of dues amounting to rs 213 crore and interest towards the bills due for december 2000 and january 2001 . meanwhile , mseb officials said in mumbai that the march bills amounting to rs 134 crore was paid on thursday as protest payment , despite the dispute over the amount . when asked on the future course of action , bansal said it was up to the dpc . the hindu businessline , friday , april 27 , 2001 dpc board authorises md to issue ppa termination notice the board of directors of dabhol power company ( dpc ) has authorised the managing director , mr neil mcgregor , to issue the notice of intent to terminate its power purchase agreement ( ppa ) with the maharashtra state electricity board ( mseb ) ` ` at an appropriate time ' ' . the decision was taken at a board meeting held in london yesterday . ` ` while mseb , which is an ` interested party ' , was not allowed to vote , it made a presentation clarifying its stand on the matter , ' ' a senior state government official said . the resolution to authorise the management to issue the termination notice was carried by six votes to one . idbi voted against the decision , the official said . the serving of the preliminary termination notice will lead to a six - month ` ` suspension period ' ' . according to clause 17 . 8 of the termination procedure , of the ppa : ` ` following the giving of a preliminary termination notice , the parties shall consult for a period of six months ( or such longer period as they may agree ) as to what step shall be taken with a view to mitigating the consequences of the relevant event having regard to all the circumstances . . . ' ' idbi and state bank of india , the principal indian lenders , had earlier persuaded the overseas lenders to hold their consent to the termination notice for some more time . at least one lender has to consent for the company to serve termination notice . it is understood that overseas lenders are in favour of termination of the project and are prepared to consent . however , domestic lenders are worried about the security of their advances if the ppa is abandoned mid - way . according to institutional sources , indian lenders are trying to get all the parties concerned to thrash out outstanding issues . the maharashtra and central governments too are in favour of a conciliation . mr vilasrao deshmukh , chief minister of maharashtra , yesterday went on record that the state did not want the project terminated . mr yashwant sinha , union finance minister , is also understood to be of the same opinion . ` ` the dpc will now have to decide what is the ` appropriate time ' to serve the notice , ' ' the official said . mseb pays rs 134 crore : meanwhile , mseb has paid dpc rs 134 crore towards its march 2001 bill . mseb officials confirmed that the bill was paid ` in protest ' ' today morning . ` ` they ( dpc ) had billed us for an amount of rs 146 crore . we do not agree with some of the items included , ' ' a senior mseb official said . the pioneer , friday , april 27 , 2001 enron testing maharashtra ' s nerves , t n raghunatha dabhol power company ( dpc ) has begun to put fresh pressure on the maharashtra state electricity board ( mseb ) , the maharashtra state government and the centre for an early resolution to the prolonged dispute between them , if the dpc board of directors ' decision to authorise its managing director to serve a contract termination notice to the mseb is any indication . the dpc board , in its meeting in london on wednesday , empowered the company management to sever its power supply agreement with mseb , a move that could inflict a financial liability of rs 2 , 840 crore on the centre . the decision to authorise the dpc management to issue a termination notice to mseb was taken by a vote of six to one after the maharasthra government representatives were prevented from voting on the ground of "" interested party "" . when contacted , the company ' s mumbai - based spokesperson , mr jimmy mogal , declined to comment on the reports about the decision taken by the dpc board . "" we have nothing to say on the reports emanating from london . we will express our views after a few days , "" he said . however , maharashtra chief minister vilasrao deshmukh on thursday termed the dpc board ' s decision as "" unfortunate "" . "" we have already requested the company not to take any harsh decision "" , mr deshmukh said in mumbai . official sources in the state energy ministry interpreted the dpc board ' s decision as a pressure tactic employed by the enron subsidiary to force the mseb to clear the pending power bills without any further delay . through its tough posture , the dpc wants to make its position stronger before it can formally agree for re - negotiations with the mseb , the centre and the state government for cutting the price of power supplied by it to the state electricity board . the sources said that the dpc ' s reported decision to authorise its managing director to stop electricity supply to the mseb did not mean that the enron subsidiary would actually go ahead with the scrapping of the power contract with the mseb . "" if anything , the dpc ' s reported decision is to mount additional pressure on the mseb for clearance of pending power bills and put itself in a stronger position in settling its dispute with the mseb . as part of its plan to arm itself with powers to break a contract in case situation goes beyond its control , the dpc had recently served a political force majeure to the mseb , the centre and the state government , "" the sources said . not surprisingly , the dpc ' s london decision comes on the heels of the maharashtra government ' s decision to set up a high - level committee , comprising representatives of the mseb , the centre and the state government to re - negotiate with the enron ' s subsidiary company for reducing the cost of power supplied to the state electricity board . meanwhile , amidst the threat of a possible termination notice hanging on its head , the mseb on thursday made a "" protest payment "" of the rs 134 crore disputed amount towards march bill of rs 146 . 64 crore to dpc . riday , april 27 the telegraph , friday , april 27 , 2001 enron signal to switch off dabhol power enron today took the first decisive step out of the controversy - ridden dabhol power company when it won an authorisation from the company ' s board to stop sale of power to maharashtra state electricity board ( mseb ) . the meeting of the company , of which the houston - based energy giant holds 65 per cent and the mseb 15 per cent , was attended by state energy secretary v m lal and mseb technical director p paunikar and it came days after its lenders discussed payment problems and a possible termination . the centre ' s liability , if enron decides to snap the agreement , will be a year ' s power bill and a termination fee of $ 300 million . however , the company will have to wait for six months from the day it serves the notice before it pulls the plug . the centre shrugged off the move , saying there would not be any adverse effect on foreign investment in power if enron walks out . "" we do not see fdi inflows into the power sector being hit , "" power minister suresh prabhu said . mseb officials said the ball is now in the court of dpc , which said its corporate policy did not allow it to comment on proceedings at board meetings . the decision coincided with a rs 134 - crore ' protest payment ' by the cash - strapped power board as part of the march bill worth rs 146 . 64 crore . there was speculation that mseb coughed up the amount to cool frayed tempers at enron ' s hub in houston , and because it was rattled by the sudden turn of events in the past few days during which the dispute had come to a head . mseb officials brushed away the allusions , saying the cheque was ready on wednesday but could not be handed over to dpc because of the state - wide bandh . "" we have a disputed payment of rs 12 . 64 crore , which will be taken up at the dispute - resolution forum , "" a board official said . last week , dpc told the state government and mseb it would no longer accept protest payments in a move to fortify its legal position . mseb officials say bechtel and general electric , the other partners who hold around 20 per cent in dpc , are willing to go along with enron corp in terminating the deal but financial institutions such as idbi are not game because it puts their loans at risk . investments made by indian institutions are not covered under the centre ' s and state ' s counter - guarantees , unlike those made by international lenders . maharashtra chief minister vilasrao deshmukh called enron ' s decision unfortunate . "" we had told state government officials attending the enron board meeting to stop the company from winding up its operations in the state as it will harm both parties . "" the statesman , friday , april 27 , 2001 enron threatens to pull out the enron crisis deepened with the board of directors of the dabhol power company deciding to authorise the managing director , mr k wade cline , to serve a notice of termination on the contract for the first phase of the $ 2 . 9 billion power project . the decision , which could lead to the cessation of dabhol ' s power supply to the state , was taken at the meeting held yesterday in london according to reports quoting the chairman of the maharashtra state electricity board , mr vinay bansal . while dpc officials refuse to comment on anything , it is learnt that mseb was itself prepared to serve a legal notice of termination just two days before the meeting . mseb was said to have been dissuaded by the nationalist congress party president , mr sharad pawar , and union power minister mr suresh prabhu , who had talks in new delhi with the maharashtra chief minister , mr vilasrao deshmukh , and an mseb delegation last monday . the state government has been served two arbitration notices while the centre is ready to go for conciliation with the dpc for failing to honour its counter - guarantee . further , the dpc has already slapped a notice of political force majeure which protects itself against undeserved claims in the event of exigencies that force it to take an extreme step . the union power minister , mr suresh prabhu , contended in delhi that since dpc contributed only 0 . 7 per cent of the total energy output of the country , its termination would not have such a phenomenal impact on the power situation . however , if terminations proceedings go through , enron corp , a 65 per cent share - holder in the dabhol power company , would stand to net a hefty amount in damages . the union power secretary has been quoted as saying that termination of the dpc would cost the centre rs 1 , 800 crore , which is the total of one years ' electricity bill and a termination fee of $ 300 million . according to an energy analyst , mr pradyumna kaul , the total liability would not cross rs 350 crore . however mr prabhu said in the lok sabha today that the that scrapping of the agreement would cost the centre rs 2 , 840 crore . it is learnt that on 20 april , mr deshmukh had given the go - ahead to the mseb to prepare a legal notice to be issued to enron during the meeting of the dpc ' s board of directors on wednesday . at the meeting , the energy minister , padamsinh patil , energy secretary , mr vinay mohan lal and mseb chairman mr vinay bansal , were also present . the notice was prepared over the past weekend and taken by the delegation when they called on mr prabhu on 24 april . however , the politicians convinced them that enron would not get tough , given its huge stake in the project , and that such a notice would not be necessary . the meeting thus ended with the decision to renegotiate the power tariff , with enron ' s consent . among those present at the london meeting were mr lal , mr bansal and mseb technical director , mr p paunikar , in their capacity as directors . however , they abstained from voting since they were deemed an interested party . the only vote to go against the decision was that of the idbi which is also represented on the board , it is learnt . the chief minister , mr vilasrao deshmukh , said the state was not in favour of terminating the project . this could mean that the latest manoeuvre to arm - twist the indian authorities could achieve its immediate target of getting the arrears accumulated over the past three months cleared . the mseb owes enron rs 146 . 64 crore for march 2001 and rs 229 crore for december 2000 and january 2001 . the centre today put up a brave face on enron ' s decision saying there would not be any adverse effect on foreign investment in power sector in the country , pti reported from new delhi . "" there will be no adverse impact as a result of any action by any domestic or foreign company . as far as we are concerned there will be no adverse impact on fdi in power sector , "" power minister suresh prabhu told reporters when asked about dpc ' s decision to authorise management to issue a termination notice to mseb . emphasising that there would be no fallout of such decision , prabhu said after the meeting of the cabinet committee on economic affairs "" we are expecting cooperation from many scandinavian countries as well as european nations in the power sector . "" in fact not only the power minister but also the prime minister of norway was here to inaugurate a seminar on power and he promised lot of cooperation in the sector . "" mid day ' dpc may not wind up ' maharashtra chief secretary v ranganathan has said that though neil mcgregor , managing director of the dabhol power corporation ( dpc ) , has been given complete powers with regard to dpc ' s operations in the state , including the authority to wind up operations , it does not necessarily mean that mcgregor will issue such a termination notice . mcgregor was given the powers at a meeting of the dpc board in london on wednesday . ranganathan said that state officials , including maharashtra state electricity board ( mseb ) chairman vinay bansal and power secretary v m lal , have reported back to him about the meeting in london . with regard to the state ' s failure to pay enron , ranganathan said , "" bills are prepared as per the power purchase agreement ( ppa ) and dpc owes some money to us . our people informed enron officials about this . . in fact , there was no reason to give powers to the md to slap a termination notice . "" in the london meeting , mseb and industrial development bank of india ( idbi ) representatives insisted that the dpc must pay rs 411 crore since it could not supply power whenever needed . chief minister vilasrao deshmukh has already termed as unfortunate the decision of the board of the enron - promoted dpc to give mcgregor powers to wind up operations . deshmukh added , "" we have already requested enron not to take any harsh decision . "" deshmukh had earlier said , "" we have directed state government officials attending the dpc board meeting to desist the energy company from winding up operations in the state , as it would be harmful to both of us . "" enron officials are keeping mum on the issue . mcgregor said , "" i am not going to give any comment . "" mid day , april 27 , 2001 enron offers ' no comment ' on renegotiation , h s rao a crucial meeting of the board of directors of the dabhol power company ( dpc ) , promoted by the us energy major enron , was held here yesterday apparently to discuss fate of its $ 900 - million power project in maharashtra , but there was no official word on the indian and state governments ' decision to renegotiate the contract . an enron spokesman declined to divulge what transpired at the meeting , saying the issues discussed at the meeting were ' confidential ' . "" we have not received any direct communication . unless we get it and evaluate the details , we have no comments to make , "" the spokesman said when asked about the proposed decision on re - negotiation of the project in which the maharashtra state electricity board ( mseb ) has 15 per cent stake . asked whether the board had taken a decision on empowering dpc managing director neil mcgregor to wind up its operations in india , the spokesman said he had nothing to say on them . enron has reportedly authorised mcgregor to look at various options including selling the company ' s stake in dpc . maharashtra chief minister vilasrao deshmukh said in mumbai that the state government would pay up the undisputed dues to the company . he said the maharashtra government "" is not in favour of terminating the 2184 - mw project , but wanted an amicable solution to the imbroglio . "" mid day , friday , april 27 , 2001 , committee to renegotiate enron deal a committee to renegotiate the power purchase agreement with the dabhol power company will be appointed by this evening , chief minister vilasrao deshmukh said today . addressing media persons after his meeting with the noted social reformer anna hazare at his official residence varsha , deshmukh said the committee would be formed by this evening or by tomorrow , at the most . he termed as unfortunate the enron board decision empowering dpc chief neil mcgregor to serve a preliminary termination notice on the maharashtra state electricity board and said the state was willing to negotiate the issue with power company . "" renegotiations will be held as per the suggestions made by the godbole committee and the center will also depute its representative on the renegotiating committee . we don ' t want to take any hasty decision , "" deshmukh saidhe pointed that the only bone of contention with the dpc had been its expensive tariff and hoped that the issue would be resolved amicably . when pointed that the enron board had taken a decision to serve the notice despite state s willingness to appoint a renegotiating committee , chief minister said it was unfortunate . earlier , in his meeting with hazare , deshmukh promised to make necessary amendments to the right to information law recently passed by the state so that the information was easily accessed by the common people . he also gave a patient hearing to hazare on his complaints of corruption in various state departments and promised action against guilty after a thorough inquiry within three months . afternoon , april 27 , 2001 ' enron ' s on ! ' state govt . to renegotiate dabhol power project , by hubert vaz the us power giant , enron power corporation ' s willingness to wrap up the dabhol power project and leave the shores may not actually materialise , though the dabhol power company chief , mr . wade cline , has been authorised to do so , since the lenders for the project would have a decisive say in the matter . disclosing this , chief minister vilasrao deshmukh confirmed this morning that the state government would churn out a compromise formula by which the power project at dabhol could be continued , and at the same time enron did not feel slighted . "" enron has not yet conveyed to us about this decision . we are waiting for their letter , "" he said . when asked what sort of compromise the state government plans to forge , mr . deshmukh said , "" let our officers come back . after that we will decide a future course of action . but we are definitely going in for renegotiation of the project . it is very difficult to predict the outcome of enron ' s decision but as of now the project is still on . "" when asked whether the project could be moved to another state , if wound up from maharashtra , mr . deshmukh said , that was not possible as per the terms of the agreement between the us company and the state government . however , it was difficult for the project to move out of the state itself , he indicated . he also confirmed that both parties would face considerable losses if the project was terminated . the board of directors of the dabhol power company , which met in london on wednesday , decided to put an end to all controversies surrounding the project once and for all by empowering the dpc chief to terminate the project , if he deemed it fit . however , this decision , as of now , does not necessarily indicate the death knell for the project . the enron project , which had been riddled with controversies right from its inception , had been a pretext for the political parties in the state to drag each other on the mat from time to time . the previous sena - bjp government , which had been out to terminate the project , however , chose to continue with it following renegotiations with enron ' s top visiting officials like ms . rebecca mark . and , the democratic front government inherited the controversial project when the governments changed hands a year and a half ago . meanwhile , state energy minister dr . padamsinh patil , when contacted at the osmanabad circuit house , said the state government and the central government have decided to appoint a joint committee to renegotiate the project with enron . "" it is not easy for them to walk out of the project just like that . they will have to go in for litigation and this would prove costly for both sides , "" he said . in case the project is terminated , the government can still manage the power needs of the state , though it would be a bit tough job , he added .",0

"Subject: option p & l gentleman : the erms system , as you know , has an excellent capability for decomposing option p & l into the following components : new deals curve shift gamma vega theta rho drift 2 nd order adjustments what i dont understand is the gamma component which is reported in dollars . the unit of measure suggests that incremental changes in a contract position is being associated with specific prices . these prices are the effective buy or sell prices associated with the dynamic delta position . stated differently , the standard taylor expansion has incorporated a price variable in such a way as to convert the unit of measure from gamma ' s standard contract count to total gamma dolalrs . this is something i dont understand . to date , inquiries to the risk management accounting group has further revealed that the gamma component of p & l is not well understood . this is what concerns me : bridgeline has 2 books with option exposures ( nymex and gas daily ) . both books dynamically hedged its positions during yesterdays large price move and , through anticipitory hedging in advance or during the large price move , secured sufficient coverage to neutralize expected changes in delta . however , our p & l from our underlying position did not offset our gamma p & l . consequently , i have to ask why ? im hoping that a brief look at the why gamma dollars are calculated may reveal something which will better guide our hedging decisions . any help is appreciated",0

( 2 ) all the power curves are mapped to r 4 ( cinergy ) . factor loading analysis lends itself only to nbp and the norewgian curves ( for reasons of liquidity , etc ) . we have decided that nbp and cinergy are the best curves available at this time . the spreadsheet which is utilized in the uk also has curves mapped to a 2 - 3 - year old set of factors derived from us nat gas , which is clearly not optimal . hence ( 1 ) we should be using risktrac numbers for var , as it is the "" most accurate "" , both in terms of ene - wide model usage and in terms of the most recent updated data . ever since uk power came on board in risktrac 3 weeks ago , the uk power number has been consistently 7 - 8 mm above the numbers in your spreadsheet . this difference is to be ecpected , given the different inputs . ( 2 ) the consistent numbers do not point to a data error in any obvious way , however , if you believe that positions are not captured correctly , please let our it staff know that .

"Subject: re : the consultant ' s model for gary hickerson ' s group the model is supposed to be a real option model to capture the value of power plants of gencos . it is to give trader a better insight as to whether the market is overvaluing / undervaluing certain genco stocks , and trader can act accordingly . i ' m still trying to find out how trader is supposed to use it . modeling details : the model takes in all gencos ' locational power forward prices and fuel forward prices , and uses garch model to simulate one year daily prices , and then uses a hourly profile to convert them into hourly prices . garch model parameters are estimated by the consultant using and separate model and are updated twice a year , and it does not matter whether the simulation starts in january or september . using these prices , it will determine whether a unit at a particular location will be dispatched or not depending on a ) spread of power and fuel prices , and b ) whether the start - up cost can be recovered during 8 operation hours . the unit can be dispatched at minimum and peak levels . fixed o & m , sox and nox ( i don ' t know what the last two stand for ) are taken into consideration . with the simulated dispatch schedule , the model calculates the value that can be generated by this unit , then sums it up across all units . the final value is the average of 100 simulations . and it takes about 16 hours to run for about 200 units . after our conversation , the consultant promised to look into a ) how to make the model more flexible , say , to allow a different time horizon , b ) reduce spreadsheet overhead by doing calculation one unit a time and not saving all the intermediate information ( as of now it saves everything on the spreadsheet ) . assuming the garch process is modelled correctly , i believe the methodology is ok , though it does not capture most of the optionality . my concerns are : whether the price processes are modelled correctly . i have to get more details before making any conclusion . 100 simulations are way too few . unless we convert the algorithm to c , i don ' t see how spreadsheet can handle more simulations . i guess that ' s why they contact us . but again , if enron ' s buying the model from the consulting company , why should enron do their job for them ? how trader ' s going to use the model output . for this i phoned jeff ( the associate who initiated all these ) and am still waiting for his returning call . a related questions why the model horizon is one year . we can either oversee the conversation , but not doing actual coding for them . or redo the model for them . ( the problem still remains that how trader ' s going to use the output ) . but in view of the great wall of china separating the business units , should we do it ? as of now i have a simulation model taking start - up cost , fixed o & m , rump - up delay into consideration . it simulates monthly prices ( using gbm ) and takes 2 minutes 40 seconds to run 10 , 000 simulations for one unit for ten years ( 120 time steps ) . it can use forward - forward vol and incorporate seasonality into it ( i understand this is debatable ) . ( one interesting observation is that when using forward - forward vol simulation , the standard deviation is about 0 . 5 % , while standard deviation using forward vol is about 2 % . also , incorporating seasonality increases the value by about 1 . 6 % ) . since most of the time - cost occurs in price simulation , and we are to simulate about 20 price processes , i hope the full model ( if we build it ) will take a couple of hours to run for 200 units . the main task will be interfacing , i . e . , getting data from data base , and outputting the results . this is where i need most help if i am to do it . please advice the course of action . i am supposed to talk to michelle cisneros today . p . s . i never promised to oversee a programmer in our group ( see the message below ) . best , alex - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - forwarded by alex huang / corp / enron on 01 / 05 / 2001 08 : 58 am - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - jeff m gray 01 / 04 / 2001 to : gary . hickerson @ enron . com , michael . w . bradley @ enron . com , michelle . d . cisneros @ enron . com , jaime . gualy @ enron . com cc : alex . huang @ enron . com , kskinner @ ftenergy . com , cseiple @ ftenergy . com subject : fw : project timeline ken and i worked up the following timeline and refined the trading methodology a bit this morning . we also met with alex huang from vince ' s group , and explained the model and coding tasks . ken and alex have arranged to speak by phone on monday , and meanwhile alex is coordinating within the research group . alex will oversee a programmer within his group , while interfacing regularly with us . 1 / 4 kickoff 1 / 11 complete spreadsheet , table , and database structures ( rdi ) . 1 / 17 complete software coding for the pricemaker component of the model ( rdi and enron research ) , and begin testing ( enron research ) . 1 / 22 complete software coding for the dispatch portion of the model ( rdi and enron research ) , and begin testing ( enron research ) . 1 / 22 complete financial trader "" user "" interface , within the access environment ( rdi ) . 1 / 22 complete collection and delivery of unverified generating - unit data from rdi databases ( rdi ) . begin verification process ( rdi ) . 1 / 29 complete all charts and reports accessible from the user interface ( rdi ) . 1 / 29 complete compilation of consensus ebitda forecasts for all operations other than merchant generation ( enron financial trading ) . 2 / 9 complete code testing ( enron research ) . 2 / 9 deliver verified and quality - checked generating - unit data ( rdi ) . 2 / 9 complete the model , begin testing the trading methodology , and train users . 2 / 16 finish training , testing , and final qc . jeff",0

"Subject: sddp model john , attached is a copy of the sddp methodology manual , written by the developers . the model was developed by mario pereira , who is the proprietor of psri ( power systems research inc ) in rio de janeiro . their web site is : www . psr - inc . com where you can find more information about the company and contact details . mario and most of the staff speak english , so phone calls are possible . development of sddp was originally done on a world bank contract to compare the benefits of new generation and transmission system interconnections in central america . it has since found much wider application . the code runs on a pc , and is licensed to a number of consultants , power companies , etc . while i was with ecnz in wellington , new zealand , we purchased a copy around 1994 . the model works with weekly or monthly time steps , with a time horizon of from 1 to 10 years , for mid to long range planning of hydro thermal power systems . it represents loads in each period as from one to five load blocks , so it is not a chronological model . this type of model can not handle thermal plant ramp rates and similar chronological system constraints . i ' m not sure how important that would be to you . the optimization phase of the model takes into account hydrological uncertainty using a form of stochastic dynamic programming with sampling . this phase sets up a function for water value in each large reservoir in the system . the simulation phase uses a number of hydrological outcomes to collect statistics on how the system would operate . the water values can be used with the short term optimization mode of sddp or in some other more detailed short term optimization model . most constraints found in hydro systems can be modelled . many transmission constraints can be modelled . a dc load flow option can be used to determine bus nodal prices . a visual basic user interface is provided which reads and writes text files . if you ' d like to know more about sddp , you could call me here in houston .

"Subject: california on the brink - - cera alert cera alert : december 13 , 2000 title : california on the brink cera knowledge areas : western energy , n . american power , n . american gas california on the brink the california stalemate california moved closer to the brink of an outage today as concerns over credit - worthiness of buyers brought the possibility that generators would avoid selling to the california market . while numerous factors have contributed to the high cost of power incurred by california ' s utilities , the root cause of the current crisis is a lack of new generation . the current credit crisis and its threat to supplies could spark state action to address the situation . the collective efforts of all market participants should be focused on increasing generation capacity as quickly as possible . western power prices have skyrocketed well beyond the record levels set this summer . perhaps because frozen rates insulate the majority of california consumers and companies from tangible effects of the market crisis , regulators have been able to postpone meaningful market reforms and significant rate increases . the california public utilities commission denied the requests of pacific gas & electric and southern california edison to end their rate freezes , forcing these utilities at least temporarily to finance the costs of higher wholesale energy . this has created an unsustainable accumulation of costs and a loss of faith in the california market . the current credit crisis and the potential for blackouts may become the galvanizing events that provide state regulators with a public mandate to address the underlying structural problems in the industry . however , there is no guarantee that these regulatory actions will expedite an effective solution for customers and the industry as a whole . wholesale and retail markets that emerge from regulatory intervention are likely to remain muddled . in the necessarily political process that will follow , it is possible that - as has largely been the case so far - the steps taken will fail to move the california power market toward a more enduring solution and will instead continue to mask the underlying structural flaws . in the six months since california ' s supply shortfall began plaguing western markets , regulators have done little to address the underlying problem . rather than addressing the cause of the supply shortage - establishing a market environment that encourages timely additions of new generating capacity and demand side responses - efforts are instead directed at trying to lay blame for the crisis and lessen the immediate financial impact on customers . indeed , several actions taken thus far have served more to compound the problem by discouraging new power plant additions . these include price caps , repeated changes to market rules , attempts to seize generator profits , and a challenging siting and permitting process . medicine worse than the illness several years of electricity demand growth and low prices in california were accompanied by very few additions to the supply base . regulators did not pay adequate attention to the looming supply shortfall . the void of consensus over the cause of the current crisis has instead been replaced by a series of bandaid remedies that address the symptoms , but not the cause , of california ' s electric market woes . * * challenging siting and permitting . despite state action to better coordinate the siting and permitting process for new power plants , power plant developers still face high hurdles . local community opposition alone has struck down some key proposed facilities . * price caps discourage investment . state and federal proposals to cap prices limit the attractiveness of the california wholesale power market , especially for developers who have the option of channeling scarce capital and equipment to more stable or more attractive markets outside the state . * repeated rule changes . frequent rule changes in the iso markets ( including the price caps ) confound attempts by developers to estimate profits from new plant development . * calls for refunds . despite reports by the power exchange , the iso , and the ferc that no pattern of abuse could be found from their examination of the california markets , state officials continue to accuse power providers of gaming the market . calls by state officials for refunds of generator profits are a threat to new plant development . * facility inspections . recent inspections of power plants by state officials to verify that operators are honestly reporting the operational status of their generating units accentuates the atmosphere of mistrust . cera ' s recent analysis suggests that merchant plant developers in the west are not guaranteed ? to make a profit . prospects of new plant profitability are affected by the timing and quantity of new plants , decommissioning of older units , demand growth , and numerous other difficult - to - forecast factors . california ' s regulatory actions only further cloud the assessment of financial viability and degrade the political environment for developers considering entering the state . despite efforts by the california iso to stimulate new capacity additions in the state with a special , limited - term capacity payment , cera estimates that demand growth will continue to outstrip supply additions in the west in 2001 . in addition , the existing siting and permitting process will prevent a sufficient quantity of capacity from entering the market until 2003 at the earliest . therefore , three years remain before a sufficient quantity of capacity enters service to significantly dampen prices and decrease the risk of an outage . the road to recovery there are a number of actions that can be taken to help relieve the capacity shortfall : * encourage new build . supply must be part of the answer . this requires a series of steps that can help facilitate new supply build . while in principal some have been taken , such as new fast track approval , the success of these actions can only be measured by the build itself . for now , there is still not enough new supply coming on until 2003 to relieve supply tightness . ? * stabilize investment climate . utilities must have assurance that they will ultimately be allowed to recover market costs for power . this provides the credit worthiness needed by sellers to produce energy and to stimulate new build . * move toward more balanced utility supply portfolios . one of the reasons the pressure on customers has been so intense in california has been the absence ( and even discouragement ) of diverse supply portfolios among the utilities in the state - particularly for residential and small commercial customers . with the market at a peak , however , now is in one sense a sub - optimal time to move toward term contracting . yet these contracts provide the foundation for a series of actions - including new supply build and demand side investments . if they end up above market , they will at least have achieved the desired effect of knocking down prices , a fact which by itself should provide sufficient justification for recovering the cost of these commitments . * encourage market mechanisms that elicit a demand response . although originally a feature of california ' s market design , most consumers are insulated from price spikes through capped or frozen retail rates . exposing customers to at least some of the market price signals would encourage a demand response . * encourage market mechanisms that dampen the "" boom bust "" characteristic of the market . whether in the form of a capacity payment , a reserve requirement , or a minimum term portfolio requirement , the california power market needs to move to a structure that encourages investment in new capacity when the market is in balance rather than waiting for a shortage and price shock to elicit new investment . such a structure can help dampen ( but not eliminate ) future price volatility . * avoid continuously tinkering with the market . while the market does need to be restructured as described above , it also needs to be stable and reliable to encourage the development of new supply as well as a robust long - term contractual market for power in california . continually tinkering with the market structure - such as the three times the price cap has been shifted since july - only serves to undermine confidence in the market . california needs to do its best to develop a long - term solution and then let the market run its course . * allow for greater environmental flexibility . the state should explore a more balanced solution to emissions restrictions in the face of a supply shortfall that has been exacerbated by generators that cannot operate due to emissions restrictions . * free purpa power plants to generate . relief should be granted to purpa power plants that are operational , but are restricted by contract from operating to generate only power . * * end * * this cera alert will be available in pdf format within 24 hours . this electronic message and attachments , if any , contain information from cambridge energy research associates , inc .

"Subject: california update - urgent please read 5 / 7 / 01 sources report that the bond authorization will be put to a vote today the bridge loan financing bill will put to a vote today in the california assembly . the republicans are currently in caucus until 3 : 30 pst and then will go to the floor for a vote . the current situation is very fluid , but sources now indicate that the bill would pass with a simple majority vote , lacking the two - thirds needed for an immediate bond issuance . if this is the case , the bill would not take effect for 90 days and the state would be forced to abandon its proposed bridge loan plans . absent of last minute financial rescues by davis or a new longer bridge loan package ( unlikely ) socal could seek voluntary bankruptcy . the main problem would then be the waiting period for financial relief from the state through the transmission line purchase or other assistance . there is an outside chance that republican defectors could precipitate from the current caucus . there is extreme pressure on the republicans from davis and angelides . if the bill failed due to lack of republican support , it would provide davis the opportunity to blame republicans for on - going expenditures of $ 70 m / day ( power purchases ) , and a possible bankruptcy by socal . the last republican who gave support to a democratic bill ( ab lx ) , representative bill campbell , lost his job . sources also confirm that democrats have not met with republicans on the bond issuance since last week .",0

"Subject: new update on ppi model for inflation book - final version dear all , attached is anjam ' s reasoning and final version of the uk ppi pllu model . the uk inflation book ' s main exposure is to two ppi indexes - the pllu and the dzcv through year 2010 . both are ppi output indexes with very comparable baskets . the only significant difference between the two is the presence of energy in the pllu ( 7 . 6 % ) . the model in use escalates the two indexes by the same factors . however , with the energy price fluctuations in recent years different models for the two indexes would reflect better the nature of their drivers . anjam concentrated on the pllu index first and he will shortly construct one for the dzcv based on the same methodology , but without the brent crude curve . the new model achieves the two main objectives of the ppi curve : it is significantly more robust and stable than the existing one , and it is considerably less sensitive to the input coefficients . this will result in us having more confidence in our monthly p & l as well as less fluctuations . best regards , martina x 34327 anjam ahmad 10 / 03 / 2000 11 : 59 to : martina angelova / lon / ect @ ect cc : subject : new update on ppi model for inflation book dear all , i followed up on the suggestions of happening babe at the conference call as follows : - 1 ) use less data unfortunately , kicking out only 1990 makes the overall equation a lot less robust , in fact dramatically so , and so eliminates the possibility of using less data . the model tested was the rpi ( month + 15 ) ppi pre - empts the moves in rpi by about 8 months . the magnitude of the oscillations is also reduced . this shows that if we had more detail in our rpi forward curve , then the ppi model would reflect those peaks and humps adequately . conclusion i therefore propose that we use the model that incorporates rpi , rpi [ t + 15 ] and deviations of brent crude from long - term average . the new model is plotted below in burgundy and can be compared to the old ppi which is depicted in blue . please note that all this analysis only applies to pllu , and that a separate study will be needed for the dzcv ppi index . regards , anjam x 35383 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - forwarded by anjam ahmad / lon / ect on 09 / 03 / 2000 16 : 52 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - anjam ahmad 08 / 03 / 2000 14 : 03 to : martina angelova / lon / ect @ ect , harry arora / hou / ect @ ect , maureen raymond / hou / ect @ ect , zimin lu / hou / ect @ ect , farouk lalji / hou / ect @ ect cc : trena mcfarland / lon / ect @ ect , dale surbey / lon / ect @ ect , stinson gibner / hou / ect @ ect , vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect , leandro ibasco / corp / enron @ enron subject : update on ppi model for inflation book dear all , we thought it might be useful to incorporate brent crude as an explanatory variable for ppi ; it was found that deviations of dated brent crude from the long - term average of $ 18 . 80 was the best form of the variable to use ( for predictions the brent forward curve produced by the global products group is used ) . the three new equations developed were : - pllu ( t ) = a . rpi ( t ) + b . rpi ( t + n ) + c . ( datedbrentcrude - 18 . 8 ) + constant , where n is 14 , 15 or 16 [ reddish curves ] r - squared approx 0 . 49 f - stat approx 32 the chart below shows what our projected pllu curve would be given this equation , and also the three best relations from before which were based upon current and future rpi : pllu ( t ) = a . rpi ( t ) + b . rpi ( t + n ) + constant , where n is 14 , 15 or 16 [ greenish curves ] r - squared approx 0 . 47 f - stat approx 45 comparison of models as you can see , the two equations differ in the very short - term and very long - term ; the inclusion of deviations of brent crude leads to short - term predictions of 3 . 0 % to 3 . 2 % over the next six months . the greenish curves predict pllu in the range of 2 . 5 % to 2 . 8 % over the next six months . the curves are then very similar until 2009 , when the models including crude break - away to the upside , relative to the falling rpi curve . the model based purely on rpi hugs the rpi curve much more closely in the longer term . this is only important to the extent that we have large positions beyond 2009 ( which we don ' t ) . suggestion what could be useful now is a differently - specified model designed to forecast only the next 3 months , using auto - regressive or auto - regressive error terms . this model would be far more accurate in the near - term , and we could include this information onto the front of this long - term model . this may be useful , despite the fact that most of our exposure is in future time buckets . back - testing all the models give similar visual and statistical performance over the data sample used ( based mainly on 1990 s "" new paradigm "" economy ) . hopefully we can discuss these and other points later in the tele - conference ; your ideas on this would be appreciated . regards , anjam x 35383",0

steve : i ' ll see if i can get in on the 25 th . . . will let you know , but i think it ' ll work . just to give you a very brief overview so you can think about who might be interested , abacus has the largest transactional database of consumer buying behavior in the world ( 89 million us households , 3 billion + purchases ) , along with sophisticated modeling capabilities to help predict customer response to various offers at the household level . given the critical need to reduce customer acquisition costs in retail energy markets , we believe that our data and modeling can help energy retailers target their direct marketing efforts toward the residential customers most likely to respond to whatever the offer is - - improving the efficiency of mailings and other promotional campaigns ( so there is an efficiency angle , see ! ) because our data allow the modeling of future buying behavior based on actual purchases , our results tend to be significantly more predictive than demographic - based models . so far , the the response from utilities and "" new entrants "" i ' ve been talking to so far has been quite positive , and we have some tests of our data underway , but we ' re interested in talking to as many players in the market as possible as we develop specific products to meet utility needs . i can provide more background if desired to whoever might be interested , but i guess the key immediate question is whether it might be worthwhile to arrange a short meeting sometime on the 25 th of april with whoever at enron might have interest in hearing what we ' re up to , and ( most importantly ) listening to what your data needs might be as you enter new markets . thanks very much for any help . . . i look forward to catching up and hearing how things are going for you . regards , brad davids 303 - 410 - 5531 - - - - - original message - - - - - from : steven . r . meyers @ enron . com [ mailto : steven . r . meyers @ enron . com ] sent : monday , april 10 , 2000 12 : 13 pm to : brad . davids @ abacus - direct . com subject : re : possible meeting ?

"Subject: a basic idea of price - offer matching clauses vince - here is the basic idea i was alluding to : suppose a car dealer promised to "" match any advertised price . "" then his competitor would feel the need to respond in kind . and so on , until all dealers advertised they would "" match any advertised price . "" now , consider one of these dealer ' s decision to perhaps lower his prices . if he does so , everyone will immediately match his price , so his market share will remain unchanged , at whatever it was before , but his revenues ( and all other dealers as well ) would be lowered by the amount of his price reduction . so , the dealer rationally decides not to lower his prices to try to sell more cars . now , suppose a limited partnership , where the partners contract to "" control "" who they are in business with , by putting a "" right of first refusal "" clause into the partnership ' s papers , whereby any partner wishing to sell his interests must offer the remaining partners the right to match any offer the partner received from outside for his shares . now , suppose you are an outsider , considering doing your due diligence in the thought you might want to buy into the partnership . you know if your offer is a "" good "" one from your perspective , offering you the prospects of a fair rate of return , the existing partners will match it , and you will get nothing in the deal but you will have paid , from your own pocket , for your due diligence . conversely , if you offer too much for the shares , then the other partners will not match your offer and you will then realize you overpaid . in neither case can you credibly assume you know more about the business than do the current partners . so , you ( basically ) don ' t make an offer . so , a partner ' s shares are seriously devalued by his partners having the right to match any offers he receives for them . the "" right of first refusal "" clause precludes economically efficient rebalancing of portfolios by rendering the shares ( essentially ) illiquid . clayton",0

"Subject: dhabol jeff , we shall forward to you shortly a copy of the message from sandeep with the numbers you have requested . what follows below are the extracts from two recent articles on the power situation in india published by the financial times . the first article describes recent power outage in northern india affecting millions of people . one possible line of defense is pointing out to the value of output lost due to power shortages . it is obvious that the value of lost production exceeds the cost of power produced by the dhabol plant ( expensive as it may be ) . the power cut affected 230 million people . the second article is enron specific . vince asia - pacific : power failure hits north india financial times ; jan 3 , 2001 by angus donald tens of millions of people were left without electricity in northern india yesterday after a power grid breakdown . electricity was gradually switched on in some areas and most parts of the capital new delhi , with 60 to 70 per cent of supply expected to be restored by the end of the day , according to power grid officials . the associated chambers of commerce and industry ( assocham ) , a leading business organisation , expressed "" deep concern "" and called for a mechanism to prevent future disruption that could "" cripple the economy "" . the power failure across eight indian states , including new delhi , disrupted train services , water supplies and the telephone network and forced hospitals to switch to emergency generators . the fault occurred on the northern grid , which provides electricity for 226 m people , and affected the states of delhi , haryana , punjab , uttar pradesh , himachal pradesh , madhya pradesh , rajasthan and jammu and kashmir . a breakdown at a sub - station in kanpur in uttar pradesh , india ' s most populous state , caused an overload of power on other lines , which then failed as well . trains stopped running for most of the day and signals systems were damaged . new delhi international airport was also slightly affected before its own power supply could be engaged . "" we will probe into the reasons for the failure . it is most likely to be a technical failure , but we will investigate why it happened , "" suresh prabhu , the power minister , was quoted as saying by press trust of india . india suffers regularly from power problems because of lack of funding to upgrade infrastructure . theft of supplies is also a big problem . thirty per cent of the country ' s electricity is stolen , according to analysts . in new delhi as much as 50 per cent is stolen . two years ago , a power failure blacked out uttar pradesh and delhi for hours . assocham issued a statement , saying that increasing industrial demand would exacerbate the problems already faced by india ' s inefficient power sector . "" the slow progress , particularly in strengthening the transmission and distribution system , and ever increasing theft will contribute to worsening the power supply situation further . "" copyright : the financial times limited , copyright the financial times limited 2000 . "" ft "" and "" financial times "" are trademarks of the financial times . privacy policy | terms jan 3 , 2001 by khozem merchant enron , the us energy producer and a constant target of criticism in india , is hitting back with a campaign to reverse its image as a profiteering multinational . its "" myth and reality "" offensive in local newspapers follows the west indian state of maharashtra ' s decision to review the tariff it pays the texas - based company , whose dollars 2 . 2 bn electricity generating plant at dabhol is india ' s biggest single foreign investment . maharashtra ' s tariff has more than doubled since 1993 and is three times greater than that charged by other independent power producers ( ipps ) . the tariff has risen because of the depreciation of the rupee against the dollar and the high but now falling price of naphtha fuel . the state also pays a fixed capacity charge of rs 970 m ( dollars 21 m ) a month , reflecting the huge project cost and , controversially , irrespective of consumption . a showdown looks inevitable , reminiscent of a clash six years ago that damaged india ' s appeal to foreign investors . a former official of the world bank , which has criticised the deal , says enron is emerging "" as the east india company of the 21 st century "" - a reference to the british trader that colonised key areas of the indian economy in the 19 th century . the stand - off is the latest blot on india ' s power sector . the uk ' s powergen and cogentrix of the us have quit india recently , frustrated by long approval procedures , inadequate payments mechanisms or because of higher returns elsewhere . "" india has lost time and opportunity and has driven returns down by six percentage points , "" says gerry grove - white , former india general manager of powergen , which has sold its 655 mw plant in gujarat to china light & power of hong kong . india ' s national plan for the five years to 2002 says generating capacity must rise by 40 , 000 mw to about 120 , 000 mw . but since 1992 , ipps have added only 3 , 000 mw and 2 , 500 mw remains under construction . this is insufficient to support official projections of 6 to 8 per cent economic growth . enron was a bellwether of india ' s liberalisation , winning fast - track project approval in the early 1990 s . phase 1 , a 740 mw plant fuelled by expensive naphtha came on stream in may 1999 , and phase 2 , a dollars 1 . 87 bn plant of 1 , 624 mw capacity that will run on cheaper liquefied natural gas ( lng ) , will be completed this year . only two of seven other fast - track proposals have achieved financial closure . from the outset enron encountered attacks , culminating in maharashtra ' s then nationalist government cancelling the project before renegotiating terms no less onerous . vilasrao deshmukh , chief minister of the successor government , says the power purchase agreement is unaffordable . enron , whose attackers also include cultural chauvinists , wants to maintain good political relations in a hostile but lucrative environment . enron views india as a testing ground for its evolution from a traditional manager of power plants to a broad - based trader of commodities , such as energy , gas and bandwidth . to support these ambitions enron hopes to trade energy between power surplus and deficit states , once legislation is passed this year . it is building an lng terminal and pipelines to trade imported natural gas . and it is laying a 15 , 000 km fibre - optic network to trade bandwidth space in a country desperately short of this new economy commodity . in any event , enron believes it has a watertight contract . it is supported by many that believe any subversion of the contract would confirm investor perception of maharashtra , india ' s financial and industrial hub , as an unreliable destination for investment . mr deshmukh - who has avoided the language of his predecessor , which threatened to "" dump dabhol into the arabian sea "" - is under pressure from radical members of his wobbly coalition . but his options are limited . scrapping the project would be ruinous for an economically troubled state that would have to compensate shareholders . maharashtra state electricity board , the local utility and enron ' s main client , is obliged to dispatch or "" off - take "" 90 per cent of dabhol ' s output . yet mseb has never honoured these guarantees . its off - take has averaged 60 per cent since the plant opened and , in effect , mseb has been paying a lot more while consuming a lot less power . one reason off - take is low is because the state ' s tough new regulator has told mseb to buy from cheaper sources . enron says the tariff would be rs 4 . 02 / kwh if mseb ' s off - take averaged 90 per cent . but with off - take a third lower , the average tariff is rs 4 . 94 per unit , and often higher . in october , the tariff was rs 6 . 91 per unit , when off - take was about 49 per cent . enron says tariffs should come down when phase 2 , run on cheaper lng , starts . these cost pressures have forced mseb to take up only half of a 30 per cent equity option in phase 2 . enron has acquired the balance and mandated bankers to find a buyer . enron ' s difficulties have undermined the appeal of ipps , which have failed to deliver the flood of investments . potential ipps feared they would never be paid by state generating boards that have become a byword for corrupt management of power . reform of state electricity boards , whose uneconomic pricing means industrial users subsidise poor farmers , as well as transmission and distribution ( t & d ) services to check huge theft and technical losses , is overdue . "" given the limited resources , money would be better spent on t & d rather than on new plant , "" says oliver blackaby , managing director of n m rothschild in india , which is advising karnataka on the privatisation of its distribution network . for the moment , attention is fixed on enron ' s ability to satisfy the competing interests of investors and clients . as sanjay bhatnagar , chief executive officer of enron india , said in a recent trade magazine , one of the key lessons learned from phase 2 is "" having flexibility to deal with externalities "" . copyright : the financial times limited , copyright the financial times limited 2000 .

' this is clearly a hard problem ( e . g . does this just mean response - time measurement , can it be done by passive means , how should the measurements be presented , etc . ) . in short - rtfm provides a good distributed measuring system for traffic volumes - ippm has concentrated on transport - layer behaviour of the current , best - effort internet . - rmonmib is beginning to consider application - layer measurement ",0

"Subject: re : option pricing challenge zimin , to generalize your initial comment , for any process ds = mu ( s , t ) * s * dt + sigma ( s , t ) * s * dz , the delta - hedging argument leads to the black - scholes pde . this is true for any arbitrary functions mu and sigma , and so includes gbm , mean reversion , and others . there is no problem with this , because in the risk - neutral world , which is what you enter if you can hedge , the drift of the "" actual "" process is irrelevant . i believe your concern is that you would like to see a different option price for mean reversion process . this can only happen if the asset is not hedgeable , and so the actual dynamics then need to be factored into the option pricing . if you assume that the underlying is a non - traded factor , then the pde will have to reflect the market price of risk , and the drift of the actual process is then reflected in the pde . vasant zimin lu 10 / 17 / 2000 05 : 20 pm to : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect , stinson gibner / hou / ect @ ect , vasant shanbhogue / hou / ect @ ect , pinnamaneni krishnarao / hou / ect @ ect , alex huang / corp / enron @ enron , kevin kindall / corp / enron @ enron , tanya tamarchenko / hou / ect @ ect cc : subject : option pricing challenge dear all , i have a fundamental question back in my mind since 95 . hope you can give me a convincing answer . zimin - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - in deriving bs differential equation , we assume the underlying follows gbm ds = mu * s * dt + sigma * s * dz where mu is the drift , sigma is the volatility , both can be a function of s . then we use delta hedging argument , we obtain the bs differential equation for the option price , regardless of mu . with the bs pde and boundary condition , we can derive bs formula . fine . no problem . question comes here . suppose the underlying is traded security and follows , say , mean - reverting process ds = beta ( alpha - s ) dt + sigma * s * dz apparantly , this sde leads to a different probability distribution . however , using the delta hedging argument , we still get the same bs differential equation , with the same boumdary condition , we get the same bs formula . not fair ! from another angle , i can derive the distribution from the bs pde for the underlying , which is the lognormal distribution . my thinking is : can i drive the distribution for any sde from the option pde ? the answer should be yes , but got to be from a different pde rather than bs pde . then what we do about the delta - hedging argument ? thanks .",0

"Subject: access on the block : international transmission auctions - cera a lert - december 20 , 2000 title : access on the block : international transmission auctions are opening european power markets e - mail category : cera insight cera knowledge area : european power despite an apparent impasse in negotiations among european transmission system operators , regulators , and the european commission in florence , auctions of international transmission capacity ( itc ) in france , the united kingdom , denmark , belgium , italy , austria , switzerland , slovenia , and the netherlands are opening access between countries and paving the way for the single european marketplace . however , the patchwork auctioning of access to itc leaves important issues unresolved . the most significant of these include the potential for gaming , third - party transit , and the allocation of auction proceeds . as they stand , these issues , cera believes , are likely to lead to action at the european level and the eventual imposition of a more integrated scheme . nevertheless , current plans to open most of europe ' s itc represent a watershed of activity that will hasten transparency in the market and determine trade flows and signal transmission investment in 2001 . international auctions are opening markets a major portion of international transmission capacity on the continent will be allocated by auction in 2001 ( see table 1 ) . in cera ' s view auctions for itc are likely to have the greatest impact during 2001 in the following areas : * increasing market transparency . the posting of available transmission capacity on yearly , monthly , and daily bases will facilitate the market ' s efficient usage of scarce interconnector capacity . for the first time , signals for new transmission investment , power flows , and transmission asset valuation will come from the market . * increasing cross - border trade . although auctions may not reduce uncertainty in the marketplace initially , the effect of heightened transparency in access rules and prices will soon work to increase trade . secondary markets for interconnector capacity will add to the number of actively traded power products and work to increase the overall level of trade . ? * increasing price correlation . auctions will replace nonmarket - based allocation methods such as long - term capacity reservation . the dynamic character of shorter - term auctions , combined with an expected secondary market for capacity , should bring access to international capacity in line with the needs of the market . in this way the market will be able to adjust more rapidly to changes in local conditions and thereby work to correlate pricing points . * increasing competition . once players have secured access to itc at a given price , they will be looking to sign supply contracts or integrate the capacity into structured deals . the result could be more aggressive maneuvering on the part of incumbents and new entrants alike , resulting in greater competition at the national level . * reducing the competitiveness of imports . the results of international transmission capacity auctions will determine the competitiveness of imported power into domestic markets . final prices offered for itc will reflect the relative cost of power between markets and work to make cheaper power more expensive to import . * spurring investment in transmission . the money raised through auction could provide transmission companies with the financial capability to invest in upgrading international transmission links . access to international transmission capacity between the netherlands , germany , and belgium in 2001 was auctioned for 63 million euros ( see http : / / www . tso - auction . org for details ) . ? auctions for access into spain , france , and italy are expected to realize a premium for access to highly coveted markets . connecting rather than integrating markets auctions between national grids , or more accurately commercial grids , are a pragmatic approach to the problem of granting access to scarce international transmission capacity on an open and transparent basis . the auctions will open access to interconnectors and at the same time reward transmission system operators . even so , the proposed approaches are not likely to satisfy market players or the stated objectives of european policymakers . in cera ' s view the following issues may eventually bring down the hammer on itc auctions : * third - party transit . the bilateral nature of itc auctions perpetrates the problem of tariff pancaking and discriminates against trade involving transit through a third grid . this is ultimately inconsistent with the european commission ' s objective of a single european power market . the fact that physical power flows do not follow contractual flows and almost always transit third - party grids further weakens the legitimacy of the approach . * transaction - based scheme . although still transactional in nature ( tied to a specific deal ) , auctions fall within the european commission ' s stated preference for market - based mechanisms for allocating international transmission capacity . it remains to be seen how successful this approach is in achieving integration of national markets . action at the european level could move allocation of itc in the direction of nontransactional mechanisms such as market splitting , counter trading , or redispatching . * gaming of auctions . auctions will in theory allocate access to transmission on a nondiscriminatory market basis to those that value it most . in practice it remains to be seen if gaming can be avoided . even though most of the auctions have placed limits on ownership of transmission capacity , tactical maneuvers could bid up transmission prices as players act to raise the price of imported power . * allocating auction proceeds . one likely outcome of auctions will be the transfer of profits between players as transmission owners recoup some of the rents currently reaped by other players . this will works to raise the value of transmission assets relative to generation , suppliers , or traders . it remains to be seen how funds from auctions will be allocated among transmission companies and the grid , as transmission is still currently subject to monopoly regulation . * * end * * come shoot the rapids with us at ceraweek 2001 , "" shooting the rapids : strategies and risks for the energy future "" in houston , february 12 - 16 , 2001 ! ?

"Subject: from vicky windsor dear vince , how are you ? well i hope . i hope you don , t mind me writing to you . you may remember that 5 months ago i left risk publications and moved to a charity . having been here for only a few months , i have decided that this job is not for me ( i miss the buzz of a corporate office ) and i have decided to move back into the corporate sector . because of my previous experience and knowledge of the energy sector , i am very interested in moving into this area . i have always thought that it would be great to work for enron because it is such a dynamic company and i am planning to approach the london office to discuss any opportunities , which might be available . i am particularly interested in product marketing and research , although i am very open - minded at the moment . i wondered whether you could recommend the right person to speak to in london . i know that you are incredibly busy , but any help you can give me would be fantastic vince . thanks and best regards , vicky windsor get your private , free e - mail from msn hotmail at http : / / www . hotmail . com . share information about yourself , create your own public profile at http : / / profiles . msn . com .",0

i ' m including what i have already written ( although i think it has changed slightly from this version ) so that you can see the style . many thanks and best regards . chris . 2 overview of this book this book aims to provide an in - depth understanding of the pricing and risk management of energy derivatives . in the remainder of this chapter we give an overview of the fundamental principals needed to model and price energy assets , and which underlie the rest of the book . as well as introducing the techniques that underlie the black - scholes modelling framework we discuss the numerical techniques of trinomial trees and monte carlo simulation for derivative pricing which are used extensively later in the book . in chapter 2 we analyse spot energy prices . apart from describing empirical prices we propose a number of processes that can be used to model the prices . we look at the well - know process of gbm as well as mean reversion , stochastic volatility and jump processes , discussing each , and showing how they can be simulated and their parameters estimated . chapter 3 , written by vince kaminski , grant masson and ronnie chahal of enron corporation , discusses volatility estimation in energy commodity markets . this chapter builds on the previous one . it examines in detail the methods , merits and pitfalls of the volatility estimation process assuming different pricing models introduced in chapter 2 . examples from crude , gas , and electricity markets are used to illustrate the technical and interpretative aspects of calculating volatility . chapter 4 examines forward curves in the energy markets . although such curves are well understood and straight forward in the world debt markets the difficulty of storage in many energy markets leads to less well defined curves . what we do in this chapter chapter 5 presents an overview of the common and not - so - common derivative structures in the energy markets and discusses their uses . examples of products analysed in this chapter include a variety of swaps , caps , floors and collars , as well as energy swaptions , compound options , asian ( or average rate ) options , barriers , lookbacks , and ladder options . chapter 6 investigates single and multi - factor models of the energy spot price and the pricing of some standard energy derivatives . closed form solutions for forward prices , forward volatilities , and european option prices are derived and presented for all the models in this chapter including a three factor stochastic convenience yield and interest rate model with jumps . chapter 7 shows how the prices of path dependent and american style options can be evaluated for the models in chapter 6 . simulation schemes are developed for the evaluation of european style options and applied to a variety of path dependent options . in order to price options which incorporate early exercise opportunities , a trinomial tree scheme is developed . this tree is built to be consistent with the observed forward curve and can be used to price exotic as well as standard american style options . chapter 8 develops a new methodology for valuing energy options based on modelling the market observed forward curve . the approach results in a multi - factor model that is able to capture realistically the evolution of a wide range of energy forward curves and where the user defined volatility structures can be of an extremely general form . closed - form solutions are developed for pricing standard european options and efficient monte carlo schemes for exotic options . the chapter finishes with a discussion of the valuation of american style options . chapter 9 focuses on the risk management of energy derivative positions . in this chapter we discuss the management of price risk for institutions that sell options or other derivatives to a client and who is then faced with the problem of managing the risk through time . we begin with delta hedging a portfolio containing derivatives and look at extensions to gamma hedging - using the models from chapters 5 and 7 . the general model of chapter 7 ideally suited to multi - factor hedging and this is also discussed . chapter 10 looks at the key risk - management concept of value at risk applied to portfolios containing energy derivative portfolios . after discussing the concept of the measure , we look at how the key inputs ( volatilities , covariances , correlations , etc ) can be estimated . we then compare the fours major methodologies for computing var ; delta , delta - gamma , historical simulation and monte - carlo simulation . finally , we look at testing the var estimates for various underlying energy market variables .",0
"Subject: sharad ' s houston visit sharad as expected we didn ' t get time to discuss in detail what to do in houston . we have discussed the subject informally , but i ' m laying it out here for clarity , and for vince / stinson ' s information . here are my thoughts : 1 . exotica . this is the top priority , as you ' d rightly identified yourself . a . learn how to build xlls . b . catalogue functions in houston exotica not yet available in london . c . catalogue differences between inputs to london and houston exotica functions . d . produce london xll that allows current function calls to be used where possible , and incorporates new functions . e . update documentation as appropriate . if you do nothing else in your two weeks , i ' ll be very happy with this . main contacts are paulo and zimin . 2 . understand american monte carlo ( amc ) . the aim is to get a feel for amc ' s characteristics . before we embark on the use of amc for real option valuation , i ' d like to understand how it behaves for financial options . i suggest something like the following : a . produce amc code for single gbm for american option . compare greeks against those from appropriate tree methods . b . two gbm spread option model , to compare against 1 - d numerical integration method . although the "" american "" bit of amc isn ' t going to be used here , it will be interesting to think about the bucketing issue in price / payoff space and , again , the greeks . c . some form of mean reverting model , preferably two factor . d . hjm for pure financial option valuation . if you get somewhere on a - d , and amc behaves sensibly on pure financial models , then i ' ll be very keen to roll it out for real option valuations . vince / stinson - since i ' m expecting the worst from it i . t . o . email support , would you be good enough to print this email out and hand it to sharad ? many thanks , steve",0

"Subject: comments hi sheridan , how are you ? i hope that you had a good vacation . vasant and i looked at your memo and found it to be interesting . i shall first briefly summarize our understanding of the methodology you propose . the comments follow . finally , i shall sketch a simple gas field project you can use as a test case in further refining the model . it appears that you are proposing a state - space approach where probabilities of different states at various future dates are specified . the next step is to assume a discount rate and to compute the present value by following the branches from the origin to one of the terminal points . traversing through the tree in this manner over many iterations will permit us to compute the average present value of the project . also , you are using the simulation to assign a value of the project to each node . thus each node will have a cash flow associated with it which will occur if the node is reached and a value which is an expectation of the value to be realized going forward . if some of these values turn out to be negative , zero - coupon , risk - free bonds are purchased to neutralize the negative realization . next , we find a comparable and apply the expected rate of return back to our project ( based on the variance of the returns ) . we iterate until convergence . finally , we subtract the initial investment and the computed risk capital from the pv of the gross cash flows ( including debt ) to determine if the project merits further consideration . comments / clarifications 1 . the money is being set aside to avoid negative values . it is not clear if you mean the values of the cash flow or the pv at the node . anyhow , we shall be setting aside money not just for that specific node but all nodes at that cross - section of time as the risk - free asset pays in all states of nature . this will have to be done every time there is a negative realization . thus , for the typical project we have , the value of risk capital may be extremely high , as we are not following a tail - based norm anymore . 2 . your memo appears to suggest that debt capacity is contingent on all values being positive . if so , we are only issuing risk - free debt . also , a project with a single negative value at each cross - section of time will not have a positive debt capacity . 3 . it seems that our optimization argument is the discount rate , which is obtained in each step from the comparison investment ( by equating the variances ) . it is not clear if changing the discount rate will have such an effect on the project variance so as to lead to a global convergence . also , our project has a finite life and the market - based assets will have infinite lives . in the light of this fact , how will we define the relevant variance ? is it the spot variance of the returns of the comparison investment ? 4 . finally , our criterion is to subtract from the average pv the investment and also the risk capital . setting risk capital to zero , this model closely resembles the intuitive present value criterion and endogenously determines the discount rate . gas field case to facilitate your thinking , we are providing a gas field example below . we invest x million dollars to buy and develop a gas field . a profile of expected production and variance of the production per year is available from the engineers at the beginning . production will be autocorrelated , as the profile will shift up or down based on the actual gas reserves being more or less than the estimated reserves . we assume the life of the field to be 10 years with no salvage value . there are fixed and variable operating costs . it might be useful for you to think about applying the framework to this problem . do let me know if you have further questions . rakesh",0

"Subject: california update 3 / 06 / 01 executive summary ? if no comprehensive deal is reached by april 9 th , chances of bankruptcy increase due to a one day "" opt - out "" clause in all long - term power contracts . ? pg & e and state locked in tough negotiations , several issues on the table : puc - imposed requirement forcing pg state - 2 . 3 times book value vs . pg & e - 4 times book value ? pg & e will not use any of the $ 1 b secured last week to help their ailing utility . ? davis ' s announcement of long term power contract didn ' t include some details : of the 8 , 800 megawatts secured this far , only 6 , 000 are available this summer some of the "" long term contracts "" are really only for three months none of the contracts prevent california from buying peak demand on the spot market ? one the same day davis announced long term contracts , davis also quietly announce a 10 % rate hike . ? ferc may be the wild card in approving this deal . pg & e transmissions deal one thing that is still uncertain is pg & e . bankruptcy may still be a likely alternative if current negotiations to buy pg & e ' s share of the electric transmission grid fail to produce a deal by april 9 ( when all long - term power contracts being negotiated have a one - day "" opt - out "" clause they can exercise unilaterally if a "" comprehensive solution "" has not been reached by the state and its major utilities ) . according to sources close to senior pg & e officials , pg & e made it clear that any hope for a politically acceptable deal on the transmission lines depends on the california government ' s willingness to make a major financial commitment it has been completely unwilling to make until now . pg & e will not make a final deal to sell its grid unless davis agrees to relieve it of the puc - imposed requirement to be the "" electricity buyer of last resort . "" current state regulations make the utility companies ultimately responsible for generating or purchasing enough electricity at all times to supply california ' s energy needs . as long as the state steps in and makes those purchases , as it has for the past three months , the utilities are shielded from absorbing the losses generated by paying premiums for spot market power and selling to consumers who are shielded by low rate ceilings . but , pg & e officials are worried 1 ) this summer ' s supply and 2 ) davis ' s concern over how fast he is draining the state ' s budget surplus . if things get into a crunch this summer and davis makes a new decision that the state will pay only for the electricity it buys through long - term contracts , then pg & e will be left holding the bag . thus , as part of the negotiations over buying the electricity grid , pg & e is demanding a "" comprehensive solution "" that includes not being liable for cost differentials between the spot market purchase and what consumers are allowed to pay . state officials are in no mood to grant that kind of "" get out of jail free "" card , so the two sides remain locked in extremely tough negotiations that are complicated by three other factors : ( 1 ) pg ( 2 ) state legislative demands that the price davis negotiate for pg and ( 3 ) the ferc must "" positively approve "" any grid purchase by the state of california . the principal concern on the price front is that pg & e wants to sell the electricity grid for nearly four times the estimated book value of their transmission , while consumer groups insist that two times book value is the politically acceptable limit . "" we see 2 . 3 times book value as an absolute upper bound . there is no way pg & e will get more than that , whatever they think , "" according to the leader of one main consumer groups . "" we are going to try to force any deals down to about 2 . 0 in any case . "" negotiators for davis are also trying to ' proposition - proof ' any transmission deal to protect against a later ballot proposal . they think there are ways to do that , but not if the price of pg & e ' s part of the grid triggers a ballot initiative . remember , if davis ' s eventual solution triggers a ballot initiative , he will be running for re - election on the same ballot as a public initiative designed to overturn his solution . on the sacramento front - no one understands pg & e ' s motives the one question no one in sacramento can figure out is what kind of game pg & e is playing . in a three day period pg & e made a series of announcements that left everyone scratching their heads . ? late thursday , pg & e officials leaked information to california papers that they had agreed in principle to sell their part of the electricity transmission grid to the state , which seemed like obvious good news , but then made it clear in discussions that the price they were asking was at least 30 % above what the state was currently offering . while a deal can still be done , anything like the $ 10 billion pg & e wants would be very hard to get through the california legislature which needs to approve any purchase . ? late friday , pg & e officials announced that they had secured a $ 1 billion loan for the parent company ( not the electricity utility ) and would use the money to pay off bondholders , other creditors and to return $ 161 million to shareholders in a new dividend payout . not a cent of that money was earmarked to help the struggling electricity orphan of pg & e and that left at least one rating agency convinced that the company was more ready to send the utility into bankruptcy than had been previously understood . ? over the weekend , pg & e leaked a story claiming that it was willing to pay off its energy suppliers ' debt for 15 cents on the dollar right now . for generators who are having to make decisions each morning about whether to start legal actions that protect their rights in any eventual bankruptcy action or hold off on the assumption that the politics of this process will "" make them whole "" in a couple of months , that kind of trial balloon is extremely unnerving . thus , in a very short time period , pg & e ' s corporate owners showed they could access public credit markets with relative ease and then showed that they were unwilling to use these funds to smooth the way toward a solution to the energy crisis . davis has demanded that all of the major utilities absorb at least a part of the $ 13 billion debt they have accumulated since last summer and pg & e ' s fund - raising will harden and deepen those demands . as one senior political official told our source "" just when you think the corporate leadership of that company has insulted us as completely as possible , they come up with something even more outrageous . "" pg and some of these "" long - term contracts "" are actually only good for three months . none of these contracts , however , keep california from having to buy the most expensive peak demand electricity on the spot market . davis agrees on new consumer electricity rate hikes for next year while the media was concern with davis ' s announcement of long term contracts for california , of less concern to the media was davis ' s quietly announced a decision to let rates rise again for electricity consumers . the state will accept the 10 % emergency surcharge levied on consumers in january as a permanent increase as well as an additional 10 % increase for consumers that will take effect early 2002 when the old 1996 rate cut legislation expires . that would bring the average charge to about 8 cents a kilowatt hour . ferc the other major danger to the transmission line deal is that the federal energy regulatory commission can block the deal simply by failing to approve it in a positive vote . senior california officials and legislators doubt that ferc has jurisdiction , and believe that ferc would not dare stop a deal . but they may be wrong . "" the deal can only go through if ferc specifically signs off on the deal . its power over transmission deal is absolute , no matter what anyone says , "" according to source close to the president . there are three possibilities : 1 ) ferc could "" pocket veto "" it by not even putting it on agenda for discussion ; 2 ) the deal is put on the agenda but it gets voted down . the democrat on the commission , william massey , has already said he is opposed to it ; or 3 ) the commission could approve it but with condition that davis has to agree to bring the lines into a regional grid system . one complicating factor in the ferc decision , however , is that its chairman curt hebert , who is adamantly opposed to the transmission line sale , may not be around long enough to have his say . "" hebert is definitely not a shoo in for the ferc chairman position , "" says one washington official . two other appointments to the commission will soon be named , this official notes , and one of them "" could easily become chairman .

"Subject: california update 1 / 31 / 01 please do not hesitate to contact robert johnston ( x 39934 ) or kristin walsh ( x 39510 ) with additional questions . executive summary an announcement could be made as early as today regarding the first wave of long - term contracts ( price and term ) . the threat of bankruptcy is significantly diminishing as davis hatches a plan to 1 ) pass on "" court ordered rate increases "" and 2 ) issue revenue bonds . audit results are in and questions loom about the amount of funds transferred to parent companies . davis is expected to use the threat of "" endless appeals "" in courts and a possible ballot initiative in november to keep the pressure on the parent companies to pay a share of the utility debt , as well as to limit the scope of the rate hikes . davis hopes that a court ruling in favor of the utilities would provide him with the political cover he needs to pass on rate hikes to california consumers and avoid utility bankruptcy . davis walking a fine line with consumer advocacy groups . if there is a ballot initiative in november to challenge the expected court - ordered rate hikes , it could be disastrous for investor confidence in the state . legislation and bail out bill ablx was heard for several hours in the senate appropriations yesterday . issues still remain regarding the tiered rate structure , specifically for communities that have harsh climates . however , the bill has received support from almost everyone including consumer groups . the bill is expected to pass sometime today . tim gage , ca director of finance said davis supports all the provisions in ablx and expected to sign . bill abl 8 x was not heard in the assembly yesterday but is expected to be hear today . in committee hearings monday , the dwr testified it is spent all of the $ 400 m and were spending $ 45 m / day in the spot market to buy power . according to sources with direct access to governor davis , the on - going court battle , as discussed below , is viewed as an excellent opportunity for a settlement . davis recognizes that 1 ) the expected court ruling in the cpuc case will likely authorize the utilities to increase rates charged to california rate payers ; 2 ) despite that ruling , the state government has the ability to delay the eventual reward of that order long enough to cripple the two utilities unless they come to terms . thus , davis believes that california consumers cannot avoid getting hit with higher electricity charges , but he plans to use the threat of an appeal ( and a possible ballot initiative ) to limit the amount of the rate hikes . a plan to exempt the lowest income , smallest consumers from any rate increase and to concentrate rate increases among consumers using 130 % of a baseline usage rate was gaining serious momentum last night in sacramento . that would still hit about one half of all consumers ( since the "" baseline "" is set at 60 % of average consumption ) , but it is "" progressive "" in a politically important sense . making this work would require solving a minor crisis that erupted last night when pg & e admitted they had stopped reading electricity meters for many customers and were estimating their bills based on previous usage rates . the company ' s defense ( they had laid off meter readers to conserve cash ) was met with widespread derision as consumer advocates pointed out the estimation policy conveniently allowed the company to charge more despite serious efforts by californians to use less electricity . "" every time you think there ' s a moment when these utilities will not embarrass themselves , something like this happens , "" one legislator moaned . long - term contracts a second key to keeping the eventual rate increases down lies in the negotiations now almost complete for the first wave of long - term power buying contracts davis initiated earlier this month . the first wave of those contracts will be announced perhaps as early as today and they will be surprisingly positive , according to officials in the talks . "" we got a series of good offers in those initial proposals . and some not so good ones , "" one official told our source . "" the idea is to announce the results of the first contract talks with the good guys and then go back to the others and say , ' you want in on this with these terms ? ' we think we ' ll eventually shake loose a lot of supply with this strategy . "" bankruptcy because of these new dynamics , there is improved market confidence that california will emerge from the current energy crisis without bankruptcy for socal edison and pg & e , even as they are set to miss another round of payments to creditors and suppliers today ( remember , there is a standstill agreement among creditors not to ask for accelerated payment until feb . 13 ) . we believe that sense of optimism will be given an even more credible boost by the court case in front of us district judge ronald s . w . lew in los angeles , which is likely to mushroom into the kind of political cover for elected officials that make a settlement possible by the end of next week , at the latest . in fact , without that political cover it would be impossible to square all the various circles of this crisis . audit results and ballot initiatives markets , bush administration officials , and perhaps utility companies themselves are underweighting the possibility that citizens groups will launch a successful ballot initiative in the fall of 200 l to bring all electricity generation back under state control . the threat of a proposition initiative mounted as the two audits of the utility companies ordered by the california public utilities commission released in the last 48 hours confirmed two seriously damaging points we have been warning about since mid - january . first , the audit of socal edison confirmed that $ 2 billion of the debt the utility claims it owes to energy suppliers is actually owed to itself through its corporate holding structure that generates and sells power . second , it confirmed that edison electric paid nearly $ 5 billion in profits to the holding company which then used that money to buy back its stock and increase dividends in an effort to keep its stock price up even while it was going on a debt - issuing binge . the audit of pg & e released late last night was even more damaging : pg & e management was sharply criticized for poor decisions in failing to react to "" clear warning signs of an approaching energy crisis "" by not making deep spending cuts , "" including scaling back management salaries . "" the auditors also questioned the utility ' s decision to funnel some $ 4 . 7 billion of its profits since deregulation into the coffers of its parent holding company , which then used the cash mostly to pay dividends and buy back stocks . "" basically , they took the money and ran , "" as state senate speaker burton put it yesterday . what appears to be governor gray davis ' grudging acceptance of reality is actually a highly evolved effort to produce a solution that provides enough rate hikes / taxpayer subsidy to help solve the current crisis without triggering a new - - and far more damaging - - burst of populist outrage among a voter base that still thinks the utility companies are basically making this all up . there is no doubt that this use of money by socal edison and the debts it owes to itself are perfectly legal and in keeping with the spirit of the 1996 deregulation law , but that is irrelevant in popular political terms . were it not for the political cover potentially afforded by the court case discussed below , these audits would make settlement extremely difficult . keeping that anger from exploding into a ballot initiative this fall is key to understanding the very complex game that davis , his advisers and senior legislators are now playing . a ballot initiative would be a potential disaster since it would almost certainly be aimed at re - establishing full public control over the electric utilities . even if the state and utilities successfully challenged such an initiative in court it would be years before that victory was clear and it would freeze all new private investment during that prolonged period . that ' s something california cannot afford as businesses would be moving out and new ones failing to relocate . court battle thus , legislators are listening in horror as they hear the ugly details of the court case in los angeles that socal edison and pg & e are likely to win in mid - february . the court will most likely grant the two utilities $ 12 . 7 billion in relief and that the cost would fall immediately on the shoulders of consumers who would see bills rise by at least 30 % , california politicians could see the emergence of the one thing everyone has needed since the start of this extended drama : political cover . davis will then have to rely on his political and negotiating skills to pressure the parent companies of the utilities to pass on something less than the full $ 12 . 7 billion debt . pg & e and socal edison have already won round one of a legal battle designed to let them raise electricity rates enough to recover all of the debt they have accumulated since august last year when the puc refused to let them raise prices even as electricity prices soared . the court said the 1996 deregulation law was crystal clear - - when the two utilities had repaid so - called "" stranded costs , "" they were free to begin charging whatever they needed to charge consumers to cover their cost of acquiring power . although the utilities won this case , the judge stayed his order until february 14 th at the state government ' s request . as that deadline approaches , an intense new negotiating round is under way . on the one hand , political officials know they have the ultimate political cover for higher electric prices ( "" the courts made me do it "" ) , but on the other hand , they also know that immediate and full compliance with that court order would force electricity rates up by about 40 % on top of natural gas bills that have soared by about 300 % since last year . utility companies are playing this card aggressively in negotiations about the scope and shape of the final bailout . "" we ' ll just wait until the court puts the order into effect in mid - february then even if we are in bankruptcy we will emerge quickly and easily . "" one tactic the state political officials are using , in order to force a settlement , is the threat of keeping the law suit tied up in court for the next couple of years . one political official pointed out that they could keep the utilities from receiving their money this year , next year or perhaps even the year after . "" sure , we tell them , they will probably win in court and get that money . eventually . we are making them well aware that unless we have a settlement we will appeal that court ruling all the way to the supreme court and keep them tied up for the next two years at least . we don ' t think the creditors will be quite that patient .

"Subject: re : convergence of the research model i was curious about the accuracy of our credit reserve model as a function of the number of simulations we use . this question , i think , is not so important when we calculate credit reserve , because the assumptions underlying our model are pretty rough anyway ( here i mean the assumptions regarding price processes , correlations , etc . ) this question becomes more essential when we talk about calculating sensitivities of the credit reserve to various factors . when the magnitude of the sensitivity is comparable to the accuracy of calculation of the credit reserve , what is the accuracy of such sensitivity ? i performed a numerical experiment where i calculated the expected loss for a simple portfolio with one counterparty ( sithe ind power ) for different number of simulations ( 10 , 100 , 1000 , 10000 , 100000 ) using old research credit model . you can see how the result converges and the relative error ( compared to the result for 100000 simulations which is assumed to be the most accurate ) in the attached file . tanya .",0

"Subject: b 2 b at enron tom , i am sending you the information about our new b 2 b unit . i have talked yesterday with greg whalley who is heading the new unit about the e - commerce project at wharton and recommended that enron join this program . i have sent him this morning a copy of the materials you gave me . the meeting with jeff skilling has been pushed till the 2 nd half of july . i talked to him briefly twice that jeff shankman and i want to discuss with him building a relationship with wharton . jeff shankman is , by the way , a great friend of your institution . vince * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * companies & finance : the americas : enron sees bricks and bytes mix reshaping energy market : purchase of mg only a start in building b 2 b platforms , writes hillary durgin : companies financial times ; 16 - jun - 2000 12 : 00 : 00 am ; 604 words by hillary durgin if jeffrey skilling is right , enron ' s acquisition of mg is only the tip of the iceberg . enron ' s president and chief operating officer is engineering a fundamental strategy shift at the houston energy company , aimed at making it a dominant "" new economy "" player across various industrial markets . the dollars 446 m acquisition last month of mg , the uk - based metals trader , is only the first of more than dollars lbn in estimated new investments the company is targeting . it is seeking vehicles on which to build business - to - business ( b 2 b ) platforms in sectors such as logistics , chemicals , agricultural products and pulp & paper . mr skilling wants to take the business model the company developed in natural gas and power and apply it to other wholesale commodity markets . he argues the electronic platforms it creates will not only become the principal b 2 b sites for those sectors , but reshape those industries . as an example , he points to enron ' s new e - commerce platform , enrononline , which has changed the way the company does business with its customers while significantly increasing sales . the company - the largest wholesale merchant of natural gas and power - saw wholesale , physical deliveries of natural gas surge 53 per cent in the first quarter . critics argue that enron ' s move away from its familiar energy business into new industries , where the learning curve is steep and the competition entrenched , is risky . yet a number of industry analysts point out enron has proved it understands markets and how to manage risks while becoming the largest importer of coal in the uk , the largest trader of gas and power in the us and grabbing an advantage in bandwidth . "" it ' s a prudent strategy , but it ' s got to be done in an orderly way , "" says ronald barone , analyst with paine - webber in new york . "" what they ' re doing here is what they ' ve been incredibly successful at doing , "" he adds , noting that enron posted dollars 1 . 3 bn in earnings before interest and taxes ( ebit ) from its wholesale energy and services business in 1999 , up 34 per cent from the previous year . earnings from that division accounted for two - thirds of the company ' s overall income before interest and taxes last year , and mr barone sees the unit ' s ebit increasing 15 - 30 per cent annually over several years . as with gas and power and now broadband , where enron is standardising contracts and creating a market in bandwidth , it wants to create markets by entering as a physical player and providing merchant , risk management and financial services over the internet . "" we will provide electronic commerce , but we will provide liquidity and we will provide settlement , or fulfilment of that contract , "" mr skilling says . "" that is an extremely powerful model . if you look at other b 2 b sites , they don ' t do that . "" mr skilling argues enron ' s e - commerce platform will triumph over the other , bulletin board - type exchanges , where striking a deal depends on two parties hooking up and working through uncertainties over timing , price , credit and fulfilment . not everyone shares that view . some energy companies , for example , would rather not do business with a competitor . bp amoco recently purchased a 3 per cent stake in altra energy technologies , a houston - based , neutral wholesale energy exchange . with koch industries and american electric power , it also committed to carry out a fixed volume of transactions on the site to lend it liquidity . just as in gas and power and now broadband and metals , enron believes it needs networks of strategic physical assets . in acquiring mg , enron got a stable of warehouses , lending it a strong physical position . "" it should provide ( mg ) with a more vibrant , more active physical spot market in more markets in the world , "" says greg whalley , chief executive officer of enron net works , the new division enron is launching to identify and enter commodity markets . he argues that in metals and other markets , enron will deliver better pricing , price risk management services , cross - commodity transactions and flexible transactions for a wider range of customers . mr skilling says there are significant rewards for restructuring an industry .

"Subject: california update 4 / 27 / 01 the following report contains confidential and sensitive information . please treat with discretion . executive summary : ? ferc price cap decision reflects bush political and economic objectives . politically , bush is determined to let the crisis blame fall on davis ; from an economic perspective , he is unwilling to create disincentives for new power generation ? davis finds four major flaws with ferc plan , most notably its exclusion of out - of - state generators ? june lst "" kill clause "" for ferc order could coincide with new bush regional plan ? california facing growing fiscal risk following bond downgrade , expected $ 20 billion power bill this summer - - economic crisis would force deeper administration involvement ? qf bid for advance payments from pg & e likely to fail in bankruptcy court ? new generation delays probable because of state / qf squabbling ? consumer groups are preparing a constitutional challenge to socal bailout deal 1 . ferc fallout the ferc decision is a holding move by the bush administration that looks like action , but is not . rather , it allows the situation in california to continue to develop virtually unabated . the political strategy appears to allow the situation to deteriorate to the point where davis cannot escape shouldering the blame . once they are politically inoculated , the administration can begin to look at regional solutions . moreover , the administration has already made explicit ( and will certainly restate in the forthcoming cheney commission report ) its opposition to stronger price caps on the grounds that they are unwilling to create disincentives to the construction of new generation . it is interesting and ironic to note that electricity generators were generally happy with the ferc order and that the only ferc commissioner who favors price caps actually voted against this plan . 2 . something less than effective price caps from davis ' s point of view , the ferc plan has four major flaws : ? the order applies only to california , not to the rest of the west . non - california generators are not required to sell at capped rates to california . ? as the order is written , it is more of a price floor for emergency power than a ceiling . ? state officials also believe that energy suppliers will continue to game the system , because the price mitigation scheme only kicks in after a stage 2 emergency and does not require any collusion . ? even when the price caps kick in , they are based on the cost - plus for the highest cost producer supplying power to california and do not require wholesalers to abide by the cap . the generators can also charge above the cap , provided they can subsequently justify the excess charge to ferc . 3 . proposal "" kill clause "" adds to the political dilemma for davis the ferc proposal includes a "" kill clause "" that says the caps will be withdrawn unless california ' s iso agrees by june lst to become part of the regional grid now under ferc control . if davis doesn ' t sign on to the regional grid by june lst , then he will have to live with june 2 nd headlines blaming him for letting the "" bush price caps plan "" collapse . 4 . growing fiscal risk in california sources speculate that california could therefore pay as much as $ 20 billion on power this summer - this is more than the combined enterprise value of pg & e and sce . these sources believe that , because of the severity of the situation , the ferc and / or the federal government will be forced to take further action to control prices for power . the consensus is that the state of california will run out of money in about 90 days . one of the first projects to be cancelled will be state plans to finance new power plant construction in exchange for long - term power deals . the bleak fiscal picture is also causing bank creditors to revisit the bridge loans they are providing to california . the bush administration and the fed are only now waking up to the seriousness of the fiscal picture . the country ' s largest and most prosperous state will have gone from large surpluses to serious debt downgrades and devastating deficits in a matter of months . 5 . qfs to seek advance payment from pg & e meanwhile , on the bankruptcy front , the qfs reportedly will ask the bankruptcy judge today to give them advance payment from pge ' s accounts , since their natural gas vendors have likewise demanded advance payment for gas . it appears very unlikely that the qfs ' request will be granted . if the qfs do not receive advance payment , it is likely that most of the 4 , 000 mw of gas - fired qf capacity will remain offline . 6 delays likely in new qf generation the qf deals made with the state for long - term contracts are being continually renegotiated , which is likely to mean that the new plants those contracts are supposed to finance will not be online as early as anticipated . 7 . consumer groups ready to challenge constitutionality of sce bailout plan harvey rosenfield and his colleagues reportedly have been reviewing an analysis of the mou for the sce bailout plan . the analysis was done by a utilities analyst , rather than a lawyer , though it appears to raise a number of good legal points . for example , one of the elements of the mou is a "" non - bypassable "" charge on ratepayers that would require them to pay even if they disconnect from the grid . this is effectively a tax , since there is no exchange of value for money , which under the ca constitution cannot be used to directly benefit a private entity . this makes the bonds that would be issued are general obligation bonds , rather than revenue bonds . according to the constitution , the state cannot be put into debt to benefit a private company . for this and other reasons , even if the republicans would vote for the sce bailout , which remains unlikely , the bailout probably would not stand a likely constitutional challenge . 8 . governor hurt by continued failure to disclose long - term power contracts the issue of the governor ' s failure to disclose the details of the long - term power contracts continues to distress the other players in the crisis . even if he were to disclose everything he and his staff have been negotiating , it is likely that their actions and negotiations will challenged , creating an even further delay .",0

what are the early warning signs of an impending shakeout ? - which ecommerce markets are most susceptible to a shakeout ? will there be single or multiple winners ? - which companies are likely to survive ? what strategies will the winners use ? there is controversy and uncertainty about which factors will most contribute to prospects for survival . how important are first mover advantages and building brand equity ?

"Subject: el paso statement on california situation in case you haven ' t already seen this : el paso addresses the california energy situation ( february 26 , 2001 ) houston , feb . 26 / prnewswire / - - el paso corporation ( nyse : epg ) reaffirmed today its continuing commitment to work with all parties involved to help improve california ' s energy situation . "" we are surprised to see continuing misinformation in the media concerning el paso ' s involvement in california , "" said norma dunn , senior vice president of corporate communications and external affairs at el paso corporation . "" we would like to take this opportunity to clarify the record . "" the significant increase in electricity demand at a time when available power supplies are short has caused a sharp climb in the price of power , which has in turn increased the price of natural gas used to generate electricity . high natural gas prices are , therefore , an effect rather than a cause of the power shortage . allegations that natural gas prices were deliberately manipulated by withholding capacity on the el paso natural gas pipeline overlook critical facts and are demonstrably untrue . it is not possible for any holder of capacity on the el paso natural gas pipeline to cause a significant increase in california gas prices by refusing to use that capacity . the el paso natural gas pipeline is required by law to post the availability of any unused capacity on its public bulletin board and is obligated to sell that capacity for no more than the published tariff rate found to be just and reasonable by the federal energy regulatory commission . all capacity held by el paso merchant energy on the el paso natural gas pipeline has been used or made available for use by others to serve california and other western markets . allegations that there was a "" conspiracy "" in 1996 to limit new interstate pipeline capacity into california are absolutely refuted by facts that no one can challenge . the facts show that all new pipelines considered during the 1990 s were either built or were not viable projects because they lacked sufficient customer support to justify their construction . for example , despite years of marketing efforts by tenneco , not a single potential customer could be induced to make the sort of binding commitment required for the proposed altamont project to proceed . for that reason alone , it was ultimately dropped . in 1996 , according to estimates , there were between one and two billion cubic feet per day ( bcf / d ) of excess natural gas transportation capacity on existing interstate pipelines serving california . indeed , it was misplaced reliance on the continuing availability of such excess capacity that prompted the california public utilities commission to encourage pg & e , socal edison , and socal gas , beginning in 1996 and continuing into 1998 , to relinquish over 1 . 5 bcf / d of firm transportation capacity on the el paso natural gas pipeline . processes are now under way to assess present demand and support for new interstate pipeline capacity into california , and el paso intends to do its part to help satisfy whatever needs may be established today . as recently as last year , there were periods when significant quantities of unused capacity were available on the el paso natural gas pipeline that were not necessary to meet demands at that time . notwithstanding its availability , this capacity was not used by shippers to california to fill in - state natural gas storage facilities for future use . if california had taken advantage of the opportunity in 2000 to store the same volumes of natural gas that had been stored in 1999 , reliance on the spot market would have been reduced and the steep rise in prices at the california border could have been substantially mitigated or avoided . it is now widely recognized that the california "" energy crisis "" was caused by the inability of the supply of power available in california to keep pace with the state ' s economy and increased demand . a combination of factors caused a sharp increase in power prices . first , the construction of new power plants in california is a slow , difficult , and heavily regulated process . as a result , the growing demand has far outstripped in - state generating capabilities . second , unfavorable precipitation and increased out - of - state demand caused some of the hydroelectric power normally relied on by california to become unavailable . third , increased demand for power in the western united states drove up prices that california had to pay to out - of - state generators . fourth , state policies deregulated wholesale power prices but capped the rates paid by consumers , leaving demand unrestrained and preventing utilities from recovering their costs . fifth , because rate caps prevented utilities from passing increased costs to consumers , the utilities ' creditworthiness was impaired , causing supplemental power needed during peak periods to become more difficult and expensive to purchase . sixth , the early and greater - than - normal use of peaking units - plants that are designed to only operate under peak demand conditions - necessitated unscheduled maintenance , rendering them unavailable at critical times . seventh , during the final months of 2000 , some power plants were forced to shut down because increased usage exhausted their air emissions credits . eighth , a warm summer followed by an early onset of cold weather further drove up demand for power . finally , the increased power costs in california could have been substantially mitigated through long - term power contracts and less reliance on the volatile short - term power market . "" california is currently in a difficult position , but now has the opportunity to refine its regulatory model and craft a long - term energy policy , "" said dunn . "" el paso has been one of the largest suppliers of energy to california for more than 50 years , and we are actively participating with all parties in california to be a part of a long - term , stable solution to california ' s energy needs .

"" rather than go through all the hassles they [ dynegy ] had at ferc with the 1998 - 99 package , they let someone else do all the work this time and then came in late with a higher bid . that way no one can complain that the procedure was tainted . after all , dynegy has quite a few power plants in california to keep fueled , and all of their current ft on el paso expires at the end of this year . of course , they still could be thwarted if the original negotiated customer matches their bid . it may all sound kind of machiavellian but sort of makes sense . "" other sources heavily discounted the chances of dynegy being the new high bidder , pointing out that the company made significantly less than expected this year because san juan / border basis differentials narrowed significantly . a dynegy source indicated that the company was involved in the bidding and lost to duke in the first round . regardless of what happens next year , a marketer noted that the southern california border / san juan basis spread continues to compress as socal gas withdraws from storage and east - of - california utilities exercise their peaking contracts because of cold weather in the rockies and elsewhere in the west . from a december index spread of 29 cents , the border / basin gap was down to about 18 cents wednesday , she said .",0

"Subject: re : status clayton , we can discuss your request when i come back to the office on monday . regarding the trip to portland . such a trip requires an explicit prior permission from your boss , myself in his absence , or stinson in my and vasant ' s absence . in case you did not ask for such a permission before , the request is denied . vince clayton vernon @ enron 07 / 20 / 2000 03 : 12 pm to : vasant shanbhogue / hou / ect @ ect cc : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect subject : status vasant - i hope you had a wonderful vacation back home , and are rested and recovered from the long flight back . i wanted to give you an update of the eol project , the gas model , and of my intentions here at enron . software ( in compiled c on the unix platform ) has been developed and debugged to listen to the eol trades , process them , book them , and file them away . in addition , software has been developed and debugged to mark these to market on a continual basis , and to store the entirety of open positions on eol in a dynamic matrix facilitating analysis . it has yet to get back with me on how the software can be informed of those trades ultimately rejected for credit purposes . these data files are stored in a format for reading by excel or by sas , for which i have written the data step program and basic tabulation routines elucidating the structure of the data . i am in the process of documenting all of this for you . with regards the gas model and its slow performance on the compaq , dell has agreed to loan me one of their competing machines to the compaq , to see if the performance issue of the lp is related to the compaq . i have been researching this issue with it here and with compaq and dell . the new machine will be here any day now ( no financial obligation to anyone ) , and i will be able to immediately ascertain whether the problem the model is having is compaq - specific . i am also in the process of documenting the gas model for you . i ' ve tried to do my best for you , vasant , but i have been frustrated by not only the death of my mother but some internal systems in it here . just the other day , sas could not open a full query of the eol database because there wasn ' t enough free space on the server ' s hard drive for the workfiles . in discussing some of these issues with some good friends of mine in power trading , people whom i have known for over 10 years , they indicated they were ubiquitous here . the power traders have similar pc ' s to my new one , and they have complained from day 1 that theirs are slower than their old ones . also , there remains a large frustration with the development of data warehouses ; during my brief tenure here it has gone through two differing proposals as to how to address this . when i have been told of tools available for real - time data harvesting , my requests for such have typically been met with "" well , we have it , but we haven ' t really tested it yet . "" an example is the weather : we still do not record to disk the hourly nws observations from the goes satellite . my interests here are to help enron to do well , because i will do well only if enron does well . these aren ' t empty words - my ira is 100 % invested in the enron stock fund . i believe my best contributions to enron will be in the areas of systems as well as modeling , and the difficulty working in the research group , in terms of systems development , is that , frankly , few people at enron seem to care what a researcher thinks about our systems . we aren ' t directly generating revenues for enron , and we aren ' t really their customers , except in our relatively small deparrtmental infrastructure expenses . as it happens , power trading posted an opening for a modeling and forecasting person , and i spoke with them and they asked me to take the job , reporting to george hopley . it is a wonderful opportunity for me , vasant , as they are interested in large system modelng of power grids as well as improving their traders ' access to real - time fundamentals data . i was completely candid with kevin presto regarding my shortcomings here in research - i told him you were disgusted with me because i repeatedly failed to meet time deadlines . they also understand i have yet to be at enron for 1 year , and thus may only bid on a job with your permission . we agree the move is good for enron ; we all work for enron , and your acquiescence to the move does not endorse it but merely permit it . they are comfortable with me - they have known me for years as a hard worker , honest and unpretensive . they have already ordered a state - of - the - art unix workstation and server for me , and they have told me they will commit whatever resources are necessary for me to be successful , including hiring an analyst to work for me . and , i have already been able to teach their analysts improved techniques for data harvesting and analysis i have learned here . so , i am requesting your permission to bid for this job opening . it would be a lateral move in position and salary , and i would commit to you to help you in any way possible in the future with regards the gas model or the eol database . i will continue to work on their improvement , and complete their documentation . as it happens , i am away on enron business in portland monday and tuesday , and will be back wednesday . i had wanted to talk face - to - face instead of by email , but enron business supercedes - i am on a team designing the data warehouse for floor trader support . clayton .",0
"Subject: california power update 1 / 17 / 01 pt . iii 1 . california ag exploring investigation of power profits sources report that the california attorney general ' s office , in a meeting yesterday , ordered a review of the federal profiteering statute . in keeping with the recent rhetoric by gov . davis , this action is almost certainly directed toward investigations of profits made by generators and marketers . 2 . more detail on bankruptcy - creditors concerned about lengthy "" cure period "" the generators want to limit their exposure as general creditors in a chapter 11 proceeding . their ability to their exposure depends on the "" cure period "" for making good on a defaulted payment , which would be dictated by the specific contract terms . if the "" cure period "" - that is , the time the utilities have available to make up for missed payments before the generators or the power exchange can take them to court - is a short period of time , for the sake of argument 30 days , then the utilities ' creditors have to swallow another 30 days of accumulated ( impaired ) receivables before they can move to the more desirable position of postpetition suppliers ( in which bills do get paid , as would be directed by the bankruptcy court judge ) . if , however , the utilities have a longer "" cure period "" , for the sake of argument 60 days , then their creditors will effectively have to swallow 60 days of accumulated impaired receivables on which they will ultimately have to take a substantial haircut .",0

"Subject: news article on enron india : enron aftermath business line - 02 / 21 / 2000 abhay mehta copyright ( c ) 2000 kasturi source : world reporter ( tm ) - asia intelligence wire power play a study of the enron project * publishers : orient longman , new delhi * price : rs . 195 the enron power project at dabhol in ratnagiri district of maharashtra has been mired in nationwide controversy ever since the inception of the project proposal in 1992 ; and the sordid tale ends only in 1997 , with the supreme court of india refusing to even admit an appeal against the bombay high court decision , of december 1996 , which while commenting that "" this case has highlighted to the people as to how even after 50 years of independence , political considerations outweigh the public interest and the interest of the state and to what extent the government can go to justify its actions not only before the public but even before the courts of law "" - yet dismissed a public interest petition against the project on the ( purely technical ) ground of res judicata , even though new facts , new arguments , new evidence of the violation of the laws of the land had been advanced by the petitioners . the fact that the fresh violations of the law were not even considered and recorded , despite the petitioners adducing the required evidence , can only be termed as strange , perhaps bizarre . abhay mehta ' s simple , factual documentation - in fact a chronological narration - of all events , including the process of bending all rules , of subverting the law for promoting a project involving unparalleled future liabilities for maharashtra , indeed for the whole of india - is not only masterly , it is devastating . it is a short , pithy book which deserves to be read from cover to cover by all thinking citizens of this country . barring the concluding chapter , the epilogue , there are no personal comments , only facts , disseminated from the original papers , mostly ' secret ' documents . all documentation has been carefully , faithfully recorded , including extracts from supposedly ' top secret ' minutes of cabinet committee meetings ; and the specific violations of the law ( which were opposed by a few public spirited civil servants , much to their disadvantage ) have been pointed up . apart from an introductory ' primer on electricity ' - introduced for the benefit of the layman , explaining some technical issues relating to electricity generation , transmission and distribution - and the background of the events of 1991 , the foreign exchange crisis , and the aftermath of the crisis , the other fifteen chapters , three appendices and fourteen annexes of the small book ( of 226 pages ) packs in an enormous volume of factual information . the strange saga of the enron project , and the sheer magnitude of the future problems this one single project poses for the country , need to be briefly recounted here , for essentially , it is the coming generation which would have to face the problem . the mseb has contracted to buy - and if not used , to pay for - 2000 mw of electricity ( for a period of 20 years ) from the dabhol power company ( the legal entity set up by enron , as an unlimited liability company registered in india , through a maze of intricate crossholdings of equity by half a dozen or more ' front ' companies registered in various tax - free havens . abhay mehta has indicated the total payments to enron over 20 years amount to $ 35 billion ( at 1998 exchange rates , around rs . 1 , 25 , 000 crores ) over the life of the project . one must record that : ( a ) crude oil / oil product prices have as of writing , more than doubled since the above calculations were made . a per the ' doctored ' figures presented by the company ( and its advocate ) , the charge per unit of electricity supplied , at the 1998 level of prices , was to 4 . 39 cent ( per unit ) as ' capacity charge ' and 3 . 43 cents ( per unit ) for ' energy costs ' . the former is indexed to the us inflation rate , and the latter to international fuel prices . the former may be assumed to have gone up only marginally ( rounded to 4 . 4 cents per unit ) ; we know that fuel prices have more than doubled internationally over 1999 . assuming the ' fuel costs ' to have increased less than 100 per cent - even though international prices have more than doubled - we may assume ( for 1999 ) energy costs of 6 . 85 cents per units , making for a total payment of 11 . 25 us cents per unit of electricity supplied by the dabhol power company ( dpc ) to mseb in late 1999 , in phase i of the project . within another two years , at 2000 mw , the annual offtake ( for 365 days x 24 hours / day ) would be 17 . 52 billion kwh ; and at 11 . 25 cents per unit , the total payment amounts to $ 1 . 97 billion annually ; for 20 years , this workout to $ 39 . 4 billion . this is not counting any further inflation in either energy costs or capacity charge . at today ' s exchange rate - about rs . 43 . 5 per us dollar - in rupee terms this works out to wore than rs . 175 , 000 crores ( as compared to rs . 125 , 000 crores indicated by abhay mehta ) . this is the cost to mseb in rupee ; and to the country in foreign exchange as payment to just one project authority , for supply of part of the power required in maharashtra . the really significant point to note in this connection is that this payment - and considerably more , depending on ( a ) future increase in ' capacity charges ' depending on us inflation rate , and international prices of lngaphtha ( for ' fuel costs ' ) , and ( b ) depreciation of the exchange rate of the rupee vis - a - vis the us dollar - is obligatory ; the assets of the mseb , the maharashtra government indeed , all assets of the government of india ( present and future ) are mortgaged to enron , by way of sovereign guarantees extended by both governments . the other significant point in this connection is that - as predicted by all independent indian experts as well as the world bank - the enron project he forced the mseb to cut its offtake of tata electric company ' s and its own much cheaper thermal power already ; in a postscript dated august 1999 , abhay mehta has indicated that already , the mseb had stopped buying between 200 and 250 mw of power from tata electric ( available at rs . 1 . 80 per unit ) and has had to backdown its own chandrapur thermal power station ( cost of this power being rs . 1 . 20 per unit ) , while forced to buy more expensive enron power at rs . 5 per unit . the loss to mseb on this count alone comes to rs . 460 crore per year . this had in fact , been predicted earlier even by the world bank . it is pointless here to go into the details of how precisely all this was contrived , by a deliberate campaign of ' disinformation ' , of blatant lies , of sidelining of expert opinion , not only of independent experts but also the goi ' s own official advisers in this matter , namely , the central electricity authority as well as that of the world bank , which was resolutely opposed to this project . the detailed facts , the letters exchanged in the above context , the pressure tactics adopted , the flouting of all procedures norms , even statutory provisions of the electricity ( supply ) act , are all carefully documented by abhay mehta . mehta correctly concludes : "" we frequently blame external agencies - like the world bank - for all our problems , when , as a matter of fact , we ourselves are our own worst enemies . in the instant case , the world bank not only advised the government of india against the project , it stood resolutely firm in its assessment of the total inadvisability of this project . in fact , one must note here that in 1996 , neighbouring pakistan , which had entered into a somewhat similar mou with enron , cancelled the project ( and the power purchase agreement with enron ) , for a $ 670 million , 782 mw residual oil - fuelled power plant , even though that agreement had stipulated enron power supply at a fixed rate of 6 . 4 us cents per kwh over a 30 year period . ( note the estimated rate of 11 . 25 cents per kwh for dabhol power for the mseb in december 1999 , which works out to around rs . 5 per unit ) . one could go on ; but one must leave the reader to go through abhay mehta ' s crisp , factual , matter of fact narration of the enron saga , and switch over to the point made by him in the epilogue to the story , about ' the next round of scams ' . for quite some time , the ruling elite in india has been intent on ' privatising ' all public enterprises ; and even ' utilities ' are no exception . the ' unbundling ' of infrastructure with a view to privatisation of all the ' profitable ' segments . all this - as per the current ' disinformation campaign ' - is supposedly in the interest of rationalisation and greater efficiency of poorer supply . the author has referred in this context to the acquisition from the government - by the torrent group - of the ahmedabad and surat electricity companies at less than one - tenth of the market value of the assets of thee facilities . again , much like the enron saga , all objections by the finance department of the gujarat government were overruled . and , abhay mehta has predicated that this onslaught - the break - up of power utilities into three segments , generation , transmission and distribution , - with a view to their privatisation is likely to be the new thrust by the ruling elite , for reasons that do not require to be spelt out . though mehta had the examples of the torrent group takeover of ahmedabad and surat electricity companies , and of the break up of the orissa state electricity board before him , yet his statement can be stated today to be prophetic ; the upseb is now on the firing line . the recent strike by the workers and engineers of the upseb in protest of the announced up government decision to trifurcate the upseb ; and the union minister of power , mr . rangarajan kumaramangalam ' s statement that the upseb is a loss making , inefficient unit and that privatisation of the facilities after the trifurcation - need to be noted . that 40 per cent of the dues of the upseb are from the up government ; that tariffs for up electricity supply are fixed by the up government and not by the upseb ; that the upseb does not have the cash even for routine maintenance as a result of the above - these are facts that nobody is prepared even to consider . that the remedy for upseb lies in a different kind of reform and restructuring , is not even to be debated . the whole idea is to privatise the profitable segments , and to leave the public sector entity with all the problem areas , including rural energy supply . it is against this background that abhay mehta ' s book needs to be widely disseminated , read , and its implications understood . what is at stake is not a ' utility ' here or a psu there . what is at stake is the future of some 80 per cent of the have - nots in this country . what is at stake is the ' pillory ' of the assets of the nation for private aggrandisement . arun ghosh",0

"Subject: re : storage model : simple issues brad , here are my thoughts on your concerns . * you needs curve inputs . this is an it job . i can help you for the curves before the system is properly set up . * intrinsic value vs time value : the intrinsic value depends on how you allocate the volumes . if you have a rough idea about the allocation as you did in the spreadsheet , we can calucate the intrinsic value within the model . the difference between the total and the intrinsic will be the ( option ) time value . however , by pre - allocating volumes , you killed some options . in the storage model , volumes are allocated dynamically , therefore it is hard to distinguish the intrinsic vs . time value . * factor of loading : factor of loadings are used to give historical correlation matrix . the three factors correspond to paralle shift , slopping and curveture . the covariance matrix in the model is expressed in the form covar = row ( vol _ { i } ) * ( correl ( i , j ) ) * colum ( vol _ { j } ) where vols are the implied volatilities from the vol curve .

"Subject: credit support value for mg and paperco find below a spreadsheet with my very rough calculation of the value of credit support for mg and paperco . my approach is as follows : 1 . assume all contracts can be modelled as financial swaps . 2 . spread the notional trading volumes over the estimated swap tenors . 3 . calculate the value of defaulting at each period of the swap ( the default option ) using black ' s formula . 4 . treat the value of the default options as risky cash flows . that is treat this value just like you would an annuity stream . by discounting back this stream of cash flows at the original risky rate and at the risk - reduced rate , i find the value of credit enhancement as the difference in the two npv ' s . please give your comments , especially if this makes no sense to you . stinson",0
"Subject: energy finance critiques david , here are the reviews of the ut energy finance program that you requested : from jennifer martinez ( mba class of 1999 , energy finance taken fall of 1998 ) : the energy finance program 2 years ago was very good , especially considering it was the first year of the program . there were a lot of guest speakers from various energy companies who gave us a lot of practical knowledge about the energy industry through case studies , lectures , etc . basically , we learned all the same finance concepts and tools as in the regular finance classes , but all the cases and examples were energy - related . the professors were good for the most part but didn ' t have a great deal of practical industry experience . if i had to guess the reason for decreased participation in the program , i would probably say it is the professors . ronn and titman are great but known as being very technical and quantitative . some students prefer less technical professors and classes that aren ' t limiting to the energy industry . also , the fact that the class meets for 3 hours twice a week may not be so appealing . other than those things , i can ' t imagine why there has been such a drop in enrollment . i especially don ' t understand why every single person didn ' t drop for enron . i wonder if it has something to do with international status . ? ? ? from john massey ( mba class of 1999 , energy finance taken fall of 1998 ) : bottom line - ut business schools is great - investment fund - best activity available to students energy finance program - fairly weak - it was a watered down version of the futures options class crossed with a weak finance appendage - the finance teacher was pathetic - both a poor teacher , ignorant about industry specific analysis , devoid of industry experience , rude to outside lectures ( from industry ) keith brown was the only educator that was any good and he only had a small portion of the class time - way to make better : get teachers with practical industry experience - make it a seminar class - focus on case studies , lectures - given by people from industry - promote the class within the business school - i felt like ut did a poor job of internally ( to students ) promoting the class - - - - - - - - - - - - from ross mesquita ( mba class of 1999 , energy finance taken fall of 1998 ) : to be honest , a great majority of the coursework was not energy specific . when energy applications were presented , it seemed more like general finance questions were reworded to include energy lingo . we had some very good speakers , but for the most part , i did not feel like the 6 hours of class had enough energy focus . i assumed that this would get better as the program progressed . one reason that may account for the decline in enrollment is that energy finance is a very specific focus . i would have probably not enrolled in the energy finance program had it been available in my first year . i did not know enough about energy at that time and i had returned to b - school to consider several career options - - i . e . , investment banking , corporate finance , entrepreneurship , marketing , etc . as a new mba student , i would not want to narrow my window of opportunities to only energy companies . here is my perspective and probably something that is true of many mbas - - my interest in enron brought me to the energy industry and not vice versa . - - - - - - - - - - from billy braddock ( mba class of 1999 , energy finance taken fall of 1998 ) : i was a participant in the inaugural energy finance program in the fall of 1998 . the primary positives to the class revolved around outside panels / instruction . for example , enron sent representatives on 2 separate occasions to discuss particular topics ( vince kaminski and gary hickerson ) . other notable speakers were jeff sandefer ( independent business consultant and e & p professional ) , the beacon group , and encap investments . another good speaker was a professor from ut ' s school of engineering . he brought a good perspective as to the "" basics "" of the energy business . the class was structured via a team - based instruction approach , with 3 professors team - teaching a 6 - hour credit course . none of the 3 professors had any product knowledge of the energy business . of the 3 professors , 2 were research focussed / tenured with little credibility in "" teaching . "" one of the professors primary focus of research was fixed income , while the other 2 were investments and corporate finance , respectively . as is the case for ut ' s finance program in general , and energy finance in particular , ut is in dire need of teaching professors ( as opposed to research professors ) that have the ability to convey finance with practical examples and at a level that can be more easily be understood by students without a finance background . particular to the energy program , ut needs to have more instruction from energy professionals ( such as the instructors used for enron ' s internal learning programs ( ie . derivatives classes , etc . ) . - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - from bryan williams ( mba class of 1999 , energy finance taken fall of 1998 ) : i participated in the first energy finance class offered in fall of 1998 , at the university of texas . the curriculum was understandably & rough around the edges 8 as 1998 was the first year the energy finance course was offered . however , the instruction also suffered as none of the instructors had any energy background to speak of ( the 6 - credit hour class was team taught by three tenured professors ) . two of the three professors have co - authored textbooks , and the third professor , s claim to fame is fixed income . as a group , the three professors are research - heavy ( as opposed to industry focused ) , and the team - teaching format did not incent any one of the profs to be personably accountable for the success of the class . that said , the instructors did a good job attracting some top notch outside speakers . among them : vince kaminski & gary hickerson , both of enron . they also dedicated one class period to a video conference call with the beacon group , an energy consulting group that i believe was recently acquired by goldman . jeff sandefer , an independent businessman , an entreprenuership instructor , and one of the foremost experts in the e - there are some experienced , brand - name professors ( e . g . sheridan titman ) teaching in the program ; cons : - the program should give the students more exposures to energy companies such as enron . specifically , it might need to help students link to the interview oppurtunites from these energy companies such as enron ; from george huan ( mba class of 2000 , energy finance taken fall of 1999 ) : companies expect mba students to have both general management ( new ideas ) and analytic ( quantative ) skills . energy industry is no exception . energy finance program offers financial strategy and risk managements courses which fit in the insudtry need . however , these two courses are far from enough to help students understand the dynemic of industrial transformation and excitements and opportunities in this industry . other management and quantitive courses are needed to complete this program . my suggestions : 1 ) seminars or lectures about energy industry and energy companies . before students make their decisions , let them know : what ' s happening and what ' s going to happen in this industry ; what the companies are doing now ; who they are looking for . 2 ) management and / or analytical courses should be included . such as : strategy , financial enginering and real option . 3 ) more industry connections . presentations and discussions . - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - from charlie weldon ( mba class of 2000 , energy finance taken in fall of 1999 ) my experience in the energy finance program overall was a positive experience . the most rewarding part of the class was the guest speakers brought in during dr . titman ' s portion of the class . this part of the course is taught in the second half of the semester and consisted of ~ 10 case classes all focusing on the energy industry . two of the cases were based on enron , and overall the case selection in my opinion was very appropriate and well thought out . value added by the professor was less than from the speakers and cases . the first eight weeks of the course covered futures and options . nearly all of the examples and problems discussed pertained directly to the energy industry and special emphasis was placed on increasing the student ' s understanding of the supply and demand dynamics in the power market . the use of options and futures for speculating and / or hedging was stressed on numerous occasions and a decent attempt at explaining how to value a power plant project . i believe that the university energy finance faculty are trying to continuously make improvements to the program . however , i do not believe that they are moving fast enough or necessarily down the right path to improvement . there is a strong need for more practical based training on energy derivatives similar to the course taught by paradigm here at enron . the focus of the university teachers is quite theoretical , due in large part to their background . while the theoretical basis is crucial to understanding the basics , the real value of such a program in my opinion is the effective bridging of the theoretical with the practical all in one course . until measures are taken to inject practicality from someone with extensive industry experience , i believe the energy finance program will continue to underdeliver on its objectives . additionally , i believe that the course structure should be changed to eliminate the need of having 3 consecutive hours of classroom instruction .",0

"Subject: latest draft don , attached is my latest effort . it entailed fairly drastic "" restructuring and reorganization "" of the earlier draft . my revision effort has been directed at improving the focus of the paper . the new story is the following : 1 . enron was formed as a regulated gas pipeline company in the mid - eighties . 2 . economic and competitive conditions conspired to force a dramatic reorganization of the company almost immediately . the result was the creation of a new , unregulated energy trading operation . the strategy of the new unit was to capitalize on business opportunities in the deregulation of markets that was occuring at the time ( mid - eighties until now ) . 3 . the business model adopted for the new unregulated business was that of a "" gas bank "" . the analogy to a commercial bank posed a very difficult problem to enron ' s management in that there was no source of liquidity to the market from a central bank authority . as a consequence enron had to develop its own very elaborate risk management procedures . 4 . another consequence of the new business model was that it required a different set of employee skills and talents . specifically , it required were bright , energetic and innovative individuals capable of identifying entrepreneurial opportunities and starting new businesses . furthermore , a new , flatter organizational structure entailing decentralized decision making was required to facilitate quick response to changing market conditions . to monitor and manage this new "" empowered "" labor force required that the firm develop new personnel policies and procedures . 5 . three primary tools of personnel management were adopted : ( i ) measure performance semi - annually , ( ii ) tie compensation closely to performance , and ( iii ) allow personnel free movement within enron to seek out the best opportunities . 6 . other attributes of the enron model include consideration for asset optionality , recognition of the value of networks in adding value to trading platforms , and the use of mark - to - market accounting for business transactions as a means of ensuring transparency and promoting prompt actions . if my "" story line "" sounds better than the draft i have attached its because its the last thing i ' ve written . at any rate i look forward to hearing your comments and to getting this wrapped up . thanks and i look forward to seeing you in february . john - enron _ paper _ 1 _ 26 _ 01 . doc john d . martin carr p . collins chair in finance finance department baylor university po box 98004 waco , tx 76798 254 - 710 - 4473 ( office ) 254 - 710 - 1092 ( fax ) j _ martin @ baylor . edu web : http : / / hsb . baylor . edu / html / martinj / home . html",0

"Subject: p + option valuation model mark , after recently reviewing the booking of the p + options , it is my understanding that these options are being valued using a standard spread option model where the price evolution of the two legs of the spread are assumed to be correlated geometric brownian motion processes ( i . e . the price process assumptions are consistent with standard black - 76 model assumptions extended to two commodities ) . the payoff for a call option is : payoff = max ( 0 , a ) b ) k ) . where : a = nxwti ( delivery price for nymex ) b = posting price = ( wti swap ) ) ( posting basis ) k = posting bonus ( fixed ) . the only complication of this option as compared to most other spread options is that leg "" b "" of the spread is a combination of three prices , the two futures prices which make up the wti swap for the given month , and the average posting basis during the delivery month . combination of these prices is easily addressed by simply setting the volatility of leg "" b "" and the correlation to correctly account for the volatility of this basket of prices and its correlation with the nxwti price . i believe that this approach is more straightforward than the alternative , which would be to use a three or four - commodity model with its associated volatility and correlation matrices . in summary , i believe that this is an appropriate model for valuation of these types of options , assuming that the inputs are set correctly . regards , stinson gibner v . p . research",0

"Subject: re : steve leppard dale , my recommendation is to make steve the head of the research unit in london . we were talking originally about september but i think we should accelerate this process . of course , anjam will be very unhappy about it , but we cannot manage around him any longer . i think that the promotion should be combined with a salary increase . i would like to offer him a significant increase that goes with expanded responsibilities and much higher visibility . a salary increase will also bring him closer to the market . we see the market for technical people going through the roof in practically every location where we operate . a contract is not a good solution in my view . it creates a sense of false security for both an employee and the company . i shall send a message to john sherriff with my recommendation . i shall cc you . i would appreciate if you could bring it up with john as well . vince dale surbey 07 / 11 / 2000 10 : 23 am to : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect cc : subject : steve leppard hi vince , hr is working on a mid - year salary review for london people that have a noticeable gap between their compensation at enron and what we would have to pay in the market for a replacement . they highlighted steve as someone with a potential gap - particularly in light of what we ' re seeing in our quant recruiting effort for credit trading and research . i ' d like your opinion on the best way to make sure we keep steve happy and keep him at enron . there are several things i see we can do : 1 ) give him a mid - year pay increase to move him closer to market . i ' m not sure this is the best way to go , especially if we only offer him a token salary increase . 2 ) offer him more responsibility : what are your thoughts on timing for making steve the official head of the london research team ? with my move to ebs , should we accelerate this ? i think this is good way to keep him happy and motivated , and then follow up with a more meaningful salary review at year - end ( as part of the regular process ) that takes into account his greater responsibility . 3 ) we have some people that we ' re trying to get under long - term ( 3 - yr ) contract with a 12 - month notice clause . obviously anyone signing one of these will want significant up - front compensation for being handcuffed . we ' ve not had a lot of success with these here in london , and i would prefer to keep steve happy so he wants to stay with enron rather than contractually binding him to the job . i ' d value your thoughts on this . thanks , dale",0

"Subject: var david , during today ' s var coordination meeting we had a discussion of issues related to mapping of the forward price curves into core locations . mapping is a necessity dictated by the limitations of the computer system : we have to reduce the dimensionality of the problem to stay within the bounds of available cpu memory . also , in some cases the quality of price discovery is poor and it ' s difficult to model the price curves independently : we solve the problem by mapping them into more liquid and better behaved core locations curves . we have agreed on the following : 1 . winston will investigate the it side and determine to what extent we can increase the number of forward price curves that are simulated as basic ( core ) curves . he will investigate the impact of a larger number of the core curves on the time required to complete the var run . 2 . the curves associated with the biggest 10 - 20 positions in each commodity should be modeled as core curves ( i . e . no mapping into other locations ) . it makes sense to monitor the biggest risks separately and avoid aggregating them into less transparent aggregates . 3 . the results of an automated clustering ( mapping ) procedures should be systematically monitored by a human and corrected if they misrepresent the risks of the trading positions . this responsibility should be vested with one person ( right now the responsibility is dispersed through the organization and this means in practice that nobody is responsible ) . research can allocate one person to this task ; cooperation of trading and rac will be critical . vince",0

"Subject: credit applicatiions in grms this note is from ted murphy ( not bjorn hagelman ) my understanding is that yet another meeting has been scheduled with the intent of diverting resources from the grms project to some other project . while i am not privy to the urgency of this other project , i do know that we have a very large , multi - phase project going in grms . grms stands for the global risk monitoring system . it is not intended to be a commercial trading product not is its primary purpose for commercial decision - making . conceptually , it is a risk warehouse for the primary purpose of rac due to the deficiency of current front office trading systems and their inability to provide timely , aggregated information useful to rac . rac has spent over a year developing a business plan scope and detailed task list to accomplish its objectives . as a firm we are woefully behind our press clippings in our ability to aggregate and understand our risk profile . my most recent sojorn in europe is a classic example of the current systems inabilty to aggregate and meet the needs of rac having abetted poor decision making and causing cash losses in well in excess of the grms budget or that of the market risk group in rac . the grms project is a requirement that bill bradford and i have in order to do our jobs . we have delegated authority to debbie brackett and rudi zipter to make decisions regarding priorities and as such meet regularly with jonathon and his team as well as rick buy to provide updates . while progress is never as fast as we would like it , in every instance in which we have only to rely on rac , jonathon ' s team and research to make a deadline it haas been hit . the primary reason for any delays whatsoever has been the diversion of resources off the project or the reliance for cooperation from some other source - most recently the it staff in london was a tremendous impediment to deadlines . please excuse the frustration that is apparently coming through in this note , but i feel like the boy with his finger in the dyke and no one is listening . also , i have had several employees come to resignation over their frustration on the lack of management support for this project , usually manifesting itself in the lack of resources or the diversion of resources devoted to it . i think we have proven collectively that we can organize a modular multiphase project and provide tangible deliverables when not distracted . please let us do our jobs . i do not denigrate the efforts of others , but i believe that they must either submit their detailed requirements to us for our consideration of their worthiness to put in our que or develop their own project with their own resources . thank you for your consideration of this opinion . as it relates to things that will effect the ability of market risk to do its job , please consult me as i would you . ted",0

"Subject: re : preface for book julie , the introduction looks fine . i have made some cosmetic changes ( typos and split infinitives that slipped by ) . you can safely ignore most of them . english is not even my second language . the corrections are in pink . vince "" julie "" on 08 / 01 / 2000 07 : 43 : 10 am to : "" vincejkaminski "" cc : subject : preface for book vince , ? hope you are well . ? we spoke a while ago about who should write the preface for the book , and you kindly offered that you would provide this . ? is this still possible ? ? we realise that you are extremely busy , so chris and les went ahead and wrote something , which is below , and if you want to review , change or re - write ? the preface , that would be very appreciated . ? let me know what your thoughts are . ? thanks , julie ( we ' re getting close ) ? ? preface ? ? ? one of our main objectives in writing energy derivatives : pricing and risk management has been to bring together as many of the various approaches for the pricing and risk management energy derivatives as possible , to discuss in - depth the models , and to show how they relate to each other . ? in this way we hope to help the reader to analyse the different models , price a wide range of energy derivatives , or to build a risk management system which uses a consistent modelling framework . ? we believe that for practitioners this last point is very important and we continue to stress in our articles and presentations the dangers of having flawed risk management and giving arbitrage opportunities to your competitors by using ad - hoc and inconsistent models for different instruments and markets ( see also others who propose consistent models ? ) . ? however , it is not our wish to concentrate on one particular model or models , at the exclusion of the others because we believe that the choice should rest with the user ( although it will probably be clear from our discussions the model ( s ) we prefer ) . ? we therefore try and give as clear account as possible of the advantage and disadvantages of all the models so that the reader can make an informed choice as to the models which best suit their needs . ? in order to meet our objectives the book is divided into 11 chapters . ? in chapter 1 we give an overview of the fundamental principals needed to model and price energy derivatives which will underpin the remainder of the book . ? in addition to introducing the techniques that underlie the black - scholes modelling framework we outline the numerical techniques of trinomial trees and monte carlo simulation for derivative pricing , which are used throughout the book . ? in chapter 2 we discuss the analysis of spot energy prices . ? as well as analysing empirical price movements we propose a number of processes that can be used to model the prices . ? we look at the well - know process of geometric brownian motion as well as mean reversion , stochastic volatility and jump processes , discussing each and showing how they can be simulated and their parameters estimated . ? chapter 3 , written by vince kaminski , grant masson and ronnie chahal of enron corp . , discusses volatility estimation in energy commodity markets . ? this chapter builds on the previous one . ? it examines in detail the methods , merits and pitfalls of the volatility estimation process assuming different pricing models introduced in chapter 2 . ? examples from crude , gas , and electricity markets are used to illustrate the technical and interpretative aspects of calculating volatility . ? chapter 4 examines forward curves in the energy markets . ? although such curves are well understood and straight - forward in the most financial markets , the difficulty of storage in many energy markets leads to less well defined curves . ? in this chapter we describe forward price bounds for energy prices and the building of forward curves from market instruments . ? we outline the three main approaches which have been applied to building forward curves in energy markets ; the arbitrage approach , the econometric approach , and deriving analytical values by modelling underlying stochastic factors . ? chapter 5 presents an overview of structures found in the energy derivative markets and discusses their uses . ? examples of products analysed in this chapter include a variety of swaps , caps , floors and collars , as well as energy swaptions , compound options , asian options , barrier options , lookback options , and ladder options . ? chapter 6 investigates single and multi - factor models of the energy spot price and the pricing of some standard energy derivatives . ? closed form solutions for forward prices , forward volatilities , and european option prices both on the spot and forwards are derived and presented for all the models in this chapter including a three factor , stochastic convenience yield and interest rate model . ? chapter 7 shows how the prices of path dependent and american style options can be evaluated for the models in chapter 6 . ? simulation schemes are developed for the evaluation of european style options and applied to a variety of path dependent options . ? in order to price options which incorporate early exercise opportunities , a trinomial tree scheme is developed . ? this tree is built to be consistent with the observed forward curve and can be used to price exotic as well as standard european and american style options . ? chapter 8 describes a methodology for valuing energy options based on modelling the whole of the market observed forward curve . ? the approach results in a multi - factor model that is able to realistically capture the evolution of a wide range of energy forward curves . ? the user defined volatility structures can be of an extremely general form . ? closed - form solutions are developed for pricing standard european options , and efficient monte carlo schemes are presented for pricing exotic options . ? the chapter closes with a discussion of the valuation of american style options . ? chapter 9 focuses on the risk management of energy derivative positions . ? in this chapter we discuss the management of price risk for institutions that trade options or other derivatives and who are then faced with the problem of managing the risk through time . ? we begin with delta hedging a portfolio containing derivatives and look at extensions to gamma hedging ) illustrating the techniques using both spot and forward curve models . ? the general model presented in chapter 8 is ideally suited to multi - factor hedging of a portfolio of energy derivatives and this is also discussed . ? chapter 10 examines the key risk management concept of value at risk ( var ) applied to portfolios containing energy derivative products . ? after discussing the concept of the measure , we look at how the key inputs ( volatilities , covariances , correlations , etc ) can be estimated . ? we then compare the fours major methodologies for computing var ; delta , delta - gamma , historical simulation and monte - carlo simulation , applying each to the same portfolio of energy options . ? in this chapter we also look at testing the var estimates for various underlying energy market variables . ? finally , in chapter 11 we review modelling approaches to credit risk . ? we look in detail at two quite different approaches , creditmetrics ( j . p . morgan ( 1997 ) ) and creditrisk + ( credit suisse financial products ( 1997 ) ) for which detailed information is publicly available . ?

"Subject: california 1 / 17 / 01 summary : late night efforts by the california assembly to craft a legislative solution are falling short of market and creditor expectations . bankruptcy appears increasingly likely , but the dynamics of a ch . 11 proceeding remain unclear . socal edison is likely to be the first in ch . 11 following its suspended payments to creditors yesterday and is now in a 30 day cure period . attempts to bring in the assets of the parent companies are unlikely to succeed . bankruptcy would provide davis with some political cover to implement the tough decisions that he has so far avoided on the questions of rate hikes and other costs to taxpayers connected to the proposed operations of the california power authority . 1 . legislation passes assembly , but generators and consumers remain unhappy the first legislation ( ab lx ) passed the california general assembly last night , but both generators and consumers are unhappy with the terms . generators object to the 5 . 5 cent per kw / h price in the proposed long - term contract , while consumer groups such as the foundation for taxpayer and consumer rights object to the state acting as a purchaser of power . the legislation is expected to pass the senate today and to be signed by governor davis as early as tonight . press and source reporting this morning confirms that the principal financial creditors and utility analysts are also unimpressed with the bill , which is viewed as insubstantial and falling short of creating a solution to the financial pressures on the utilities . 2 . financial institutions exposure to california utilities bank of america : $ 215 million j . p . morgan : $ 202 million there is a total of $ 12 billion in outstanding loans , but much of this ( arranged by societe general ) is to the parents national energy group and edison international . the $ 417 million mentioned above is the most immediate concern . the southern california edison loans are subject to immediate repayment in the aftermath of yesterday ' s rating downgrade to junk status . the fed will not be involved , except in a routine way as a bank regulator making sure that the appropriate risk reserves are made against the utilities ' loans and securities . there is no moral hazard here , because the fed is not going to guarantee any of the utilities ' credits , which , by the way , they do not have the authority to do . 3 . pg & e / national energy group - shielding assets despite considerable anger at pg & e for reorganizing to shield its profitable assets from its debt - plagued utility business , it would seem that davis has little authority to intervene . the question of "" fraudulent conveyance "" , which is a term in bankruptcy law for transferring assets to favored parties not long before a filing ( which transfer can then be reversed by the court ) would not seem to apply here , since pg dynegy has threaten to take take edison into bankruptcy court if they default pg & e current available : $ 500 m in cash and reserves due feb : lst - $ 580 m to iso 15 th - $ 431 m to california power exchange contrary to press reports and leaks from the governor ' s office yesterday about political brinksmanship , edison is clearly not playing negotiating games and is really short of cash . in this situation , it is unlikely that its executives will be making fraudulent statements . the bonds on which they failed to pay would have a 30 - day cure period . after that the trustees will move on edison , if edison has not already filed . they have three ways of financing power purchases going forward : 1 ) the state continues to buy power and sell edison ( and pg or 2 ) pending the passage of today ' s legislation , the state legislature authorizes the purchase of power through long - term contracts under the proposed borrowing authority ; or 3 ) edison files for reorganization under chapter 11 and obtains almost immediately superpriority post - petition lines of credit secured against its unmortgaged assets , which it uses to pay for power until the puc and the rest of the state government recognize that rates have to increase . 6 . new hampshire experience a guide for davis ? following the bankruptcy of the public service company of new hampshire , the bankruptcy judge was authorized by a higher court to mandate rate hikes . the prospect of imposed rate hikes from the bankruptcy court caused the state government to subsequently determine that rate hikes to consumers were unavoidable , passing a seven year rate hike of 7 . 5 percent . for davis , a similar scenario would provide him with some political cover , if he were forced by the bankruptcy court to pass through rate hikes as part of a settlement .",0

"Subject: re : equity investment fair value in turkey john , it seems to me that using a risk - free rate is not appropriate . i shall elaborate on my position and send you a longer message this afternoon ( my time ) . vince enron capital & trade resources corp . - europe from : john bottomley 06 / 19 / 2000 05 : 55 am to : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect cc : john sherriff / lon / ect @ ect , dale surbey / lon / ect @ ect subject : equity investment fair value in turkey vince , john sherriff recommended that i contact you regarding an interesting ( and potentially contentious ) option valuation issue we are currently dealing with in london . we hold longish term options in a private company in turkey which is currently seeking to ipo . the issue we are discussing with rac is which discount rate ( i . e . , risk - free ? and if so turkish or us ? ) should we use to value these options first , some additional information . option characteristics : - - 116 , 000 options ( representing 9 % of the company ) - - term : minimum of 3 years but possibly longer - - still being renegotiated - - strike price : 20 % below the upcoming ipo price ( either priced in us $ or turkish lire ) we currently hold the above number of options with a fixed price of $ 118 . 75 per option but 34 , 800 expire on july 15 , 2000 with the remainder expiring on december 15 , 2000 . the company ' s investment bankers ( abn / amro rothchilds ) are concerned regarding the strike price because it values the company at $ 118 million and they believe the company is worth approx $ 300 million . due to such a large "" valuation gap "" , they originally encouraged us to exercise all of the options by the end of june ( ipo target date in late sept / early oct ) . our counter - proposal is to "" swap "" instrinsic value for time value by repricing the options strike higher while extending their term . we are currently negotiating with rac the most appropriate discount rate to use to value the options . we are arguing that the us risk free is the most appropriate discount rate and their current position is that the company ' s historical senior debt cost ( 18 % ) is the more appropriate number to use ( although admit that this is not justifiable - - only a proxy ) a few key points : - - rac is valuing the options via crystal ball simulations such that this "" to be negotiated "" discount rate is used to calculate the pv of the future options intrinsic value in 3 years ( i . e . , for black - scholes , a higher discount rate yields a higher value but the opposite is true using crystal ball simulation ) - - the model simulates both an ipo / no ipo case and in the case of no ipo we have put options for our equity priced at a fixed 17 % return - - the model assigns a 30 % illiquidity discount - - in the simulated cases where the options are out - of - the - money , we obviously do not exercise . we understand that for black - scholes option valuation , one needs to be able to construct a comparable portfolio of cash flows using equity futures and the risk free in order for the valuation to hold . and here is where we reach our difficulty : since the company doesn ' t currently trade on a public market and since equity futures do not exist for turkish equities , rac is arguing that a us risk free is not appropriate to use . our argument is that the non - ipo scenario , a 30 % illiquidity discount and a us $ based option volatility are already in the factored into the simulation . as such , we feel rac ' s approach is double counting . if you managed to get through the above , your a patient man ! i ' ll give you a call today or tomorrow after you ' ve had a chance to digest the information . regards , john bottomley",0
"Subject: california update 5 / 4 / 01 if you have any questions , please contact kristin walsh at ( 713 ) 853 - 9510 . bridge loan financing bills may not meet their may 8 th deadline due to lack of support sources report there will not be a vote regarding the authorization for the bond issuance / bridge loan by the may 8 th deadline . any possibility for a deal has reportedly fallen apart . according to sources , both the republicans and democratic caucuses are turning against davis . the democratic caucus is reportedly "" unwilling to fight "" for davis . many legislative republicans and democrats reportedly do not trust davis and express concern that , once the bonds are issued to replenish the general fund , davis would "" double dip "" into the fund . clearly there is a lack of good faith between the legislature and the governor . however , it is believed once davis discloses the details of the power contracts negotiated , a bond issuance will take place . additionally , some generator sources have reported that some of the long - term power contracts ( as opposed to those still in development ) require that the bond issuance happen by july 1 , 2001 . if not , the state may be in breach of contract . sources state that if the legislature does not pass the bridge loan legislation by may 8 th , having a bond issuance by july lst will be very difficult . the republicans were planning to offer an alternative plan whereby the state would "" eat "" the $ 5 billion cost of power spent to date out of the general fund , thereby decreasing the amount of the bond issuance to approximately $ 8 billion . however , the reportedly now are not going to offer even this concession . sources report that the republicans intend to hold out for full disclosure of the governor ' s plan for handling the crisis , including the details and terms of all long - term contracts he has negotiated , before they will support the bond issuance to go forward . currently there are two bills dealing with the bridge loan ; ab 8 x and ab 31 x . ab 8 x authorizes the dwr to sell up to $ 10 billion in bonds . this bill passed the senate in march , but has stalled in the assembly due to a lack of republican support . ab 31 x deals with energy conservation programs for community college districts . however , sources report this bill may be amended to include language relevant to the bond sale by senator bowen , currently in ab 8 x . senator bowen ' s language states that the state should get paid before the utilities from rate payments ( which , if passed , would be likely to cause a socal bankruptcy ) . according to sources close to the republicans in the legislature , republicans do not believe there should be a bridge loan due to money available in the general fund . for instance , tony strickland has stated that only 1 / 2 of the bonds ( or approximately $ 5 billion ) should be issued . other republicans reportedly do not support issuing any bonds . the republicans intend to bring this up in debate on monday . additionally , lehman brothers reportedly also feels that a bridge loan is unnecessary and there are some indications that lehman may back out of the bridge loan . key points of the bridge financing initial loan amount : $ 4 . 125 b lenders : jp morgan $ 2 . 5 b lehman brothers $ 1 . 0 b bear stearns $ 625 m tax exempt portion : of the $ 4 . 125 b ; $ 1 . 6 b is expected to be tax - exempt projected interest rate : taxable rate 5 . 77 % tax - exempt rate 4 . 77 % current projected blended ir : 5 . 38 % maturity date : august 29 , 2001 for more details please contact me at ( 713 ) 853 - 9510 bill sb 6 x passed the senate yesterday , but little can be done at this time the senate passed sb 6 x yesterday , which authorizes $ 5 billion to create the california consumer power and conservation authority . the $ 5 billion authorized under sb 6 x is not the same as the $ 5 billion that must be authorized by the legislature to pay for power already purchased , or the additional amount of bonds that must be authorized to pay for purchasing power going forward . again , the republicans are not in support of these authorizations . without the details of the long - term power contracts the governor has negotiated , the republicans do not know what the final bond amount is that must be issued and that taxpayers will have to pay to support . no further action can be taken regarding the implementation of sb 6 x until it is clarified how and when the state and the utilities get paid for purchasing power . also , there is no staff , defined purpose , etc . for the california public power and conservation authority . however , this can be considered a victory for consumer advocates , who began promoting this idea earlier in the crisis . socal edison and bankruptcy at this point , two events would be likely to trigger a socal bankruptcy . the first would be a legislative rejection of the mou between socal and the governor . the specified deadline for legislative approval of the mou is august 15 th , however , some decision will likely be made earlier . according to sources , the state has yet to sign the mou with socal , though socal has signed it . the republicans are against the mou in its current form and davis and the senate lack the votes needed to pass . if the legislature indicates that it will not pas the mou , socal would likely file for voluntary bankruptcy ( or its creditor - involuntary ) due to the lack operating cash . the second likely triggering event , which is linked directly to the bond issuance , would be an effort by senator bowen to amend sb 31 x ( bridge loan ) stating that the dwr would received 100 % of its payments from ratepayers , then the utilities would receive the residual amount . in other words , the state will get paid before the utilities . if this language is included and passed by the legislature , it appears likely that socal will likely file for bankruptcy . socal is urging the legislature to pay both the utilities and the dwr proportionately from rate payments .",0

"Subject: enron net works it is becoming increasingly clear that the development of ecommerce will have a significant and continuing impact on the conduct of business in a broad array of industries . through enrononline , enron has quickly become a major catalyst for the transition to the web in the gas and electric industries . enrononline has been an enormous success since its launch . since launch , we have completed 67 , 043 transactions on line , with a total dollar value of over $ 25 billion . enrononline is now the largest ecommerce site in the world . we believe that the competitive success of enrononline is due to one very specific reason . in addition to providing a web - based platform for transactions , enron acts as principal to provide direct liquidity to the site . we stand ready at all times , in any market conditions , to buy and sell at the posted price . this converts a & bulletin board 8 ( the more typical ecommerce concept ) into a true market . there are very few , if any , competitors that can provide this capability . we are increasingly convinced that this competitive advantage can be dramatically expanded to other products and other geographies . if we are correct , this could provide an enormous new opportunity for growth for enron . accordingly , we are initiating a major new effort to capture this opportunity . effective today we are creating a new business , enron net works , to pursue new market development opportunities in ecommerce across a broad range of industries . it is likely that this business will ultimately be our fifth business segment , joining transmission mike mcconnell , chief operating officer ; and jeff mcmahon , chief commercial officer . these individuals will comprise the office of the chairman for enron net works and remain on the executive committee of enron corp . replacing greg whalley as president and chief operating officer of enron north america is dave delainey , who will also join enron , s executive committee . global technology will remain intact but will now be a part of enron net works . it will maintain all of the same businesses and services as it did as an enron global function . philippe bibi will remain the chief technology officer for all of enron corp . and continues to be responsible for the development of worldwide technology standards and platforms . enrononline , headed by louise kitchen , will also remain intact and will now be a part of enron net works . the success of enrononline enables us to utilize this site as a model as we explore other markets . in addition , the following individuals are included in enron net works along with their current ecommerce initiatives : harry arora , public financial securities ; jay fitzgerald , new markets identification ; bruce garner , metals ; and greg piper , pulp and paper . over the next several weeks we will complete staffing and organizational design and will provide full details on this exciting new business opportunity .",0

i ' m including what i have already written ( although i think it has changed slightly from this version ) so that you can see the style . many thanks and best regards . chris . 2 overview of this book this book aims to provide an in - depth understanding of the pricing and risk management of energy derivatives . in the remainder of this chapter we give an overview of the fundamental principals needed to model and price energy assets , and which underlie the rest of the book . as well as introducing the techniques that underlie the black - scholes modelling framework we discuss the numerical techniques of trinomial trees and monte carlo simulation for derivative pricing which are used extensively later in the book . in chapter 2 we analyse spot energy prices . apart from describing empirical prices we propose a number of processes that can be used to model the prices . we look at the well - know process of gbm as well as mean reversion , stochastic volatility and jump processes , discussing each , and showing how they can be simulated and their parameters estimated . chapter 3 , written by vince kaminski and grant masson of enron capital and trade . chapter 4 examines forward curves in the energy markets . although such curves are well understood and straight forward in the world debt markets the difficulty of storage in many energy markets leads to less well defined curves . what we do in this chapter chapter 5 presents an overview of the common and not - so - common derivative structures in the energy markets and discusses their uses . examples of products analysed in this chapter include a variety of swaps , caps , floors and collars , as well as energy swaptions , compound options , asian ( or average rate ) options , barriers , lookbacks , and ladder options . chapter 6 investigates single and multi - factor models of the energy spot price and the pricing of some standard energy derivatives . closed form solutions for forward prices , forward volatilities , and european option prices are derived and presented for all the models in this chapter including a three factor stochastic convenience yield and interest rate model with jumps . chapter 7 shows how the prices of path dependent and american style options can be evaluated for the models in chapter 6 . simulation schemes are developed for the evaluation of european style options and applied to a variety of path dependent options . in order to price options which incorporate early exercise opportunities , a trinomial tree scheme is developed . this tree is built to be consistent with the observed forward curve and can be used to price exotic as well as standard american style options . chapter 8 develops a new methodology for valuing energy options based on modelling the market observed forward curve . the approach results in a multi - factor model that is able to capture realistically the evolution of a wide range of energy forward curves and where the user defined volatility structures can be of an extremely general form . closed - form solutions are developed for pricing standard european options and efficient monte carlo schemes for exotic options . the chapter finishes with a discussion of the valuation of american style options . chapter 9 focuses on the risk management of energy derivative positions . in this chapter we discuss the management of price risk for institutions that sell options or other derivatives to a client and who is then faced with the problem of managing the risk through time . we begin with delta hedging a portfolio containing derivatives and look at extensions to gamma hedging - using the models from chapters 5 and 7 . the general model of chapter 7 ideally suited to multi - factor hedging and this is also discussed . chapter 10 looks at the key risk - management concept of value at risk applied to portfolios containing energy derivative portfolios . after discussing the concept of the measure , we look at how the key inputs ( volatilities , covariances , correlations , etc ) can be estimated . we then compare the fours major methodologies for computing var ; delta , delta - gamma , historical simulation and monte - carlo simulation . finally , we look at testing the var estimates for various underlying energy market variables .",0

"Subject: option hedging for ees eugene , bob and i had a discussion about your question you raised yesterday . for an option writer , he has the obligation to deliver , so he hedges it with the underlying by adjesting delta positions . the hedging cost , theoretically , should be equal to the fair value of the option premium . on the other hand , for the option holder , he has no obligation , by delta heging , he would pay double for the option , with no upside . so he should not hedge it at all . if the option holder wants to protect the time value of the option , he should sell the option to the market or some equivalent options to create a theta - neutral portfolio . this may require trading in both the orginal and the equivalent option underlyings . our question to you , if the call options you mentioned are embedded in the ees contracts , say fixed price sale contracts , what makes it possible to just separate those options and sell them to the market to retain the full values of the options ? we conjecture that these options are meant to hedge the original contract . by selling those options you eliminate the upside of the original contract . give one of us a call if you want to discuss this further . zimin",0

( in high speed communication bandwidth scenarios , for example , the dimensions could be price , bandwidth size , time for which bandwidth available , continguity of the allocation , and such . ) 2 ) it involves dynamic matching as opposed to "" static "" matching . 3 ) it is multi - lateral . 4 ) it adapts itself dynamically to changing market conditions . 5 ) it allows traders to make important trade - offs , as they do in traditional markets . currently , skg is involved in discussions with the heads of trading at fidelity , putnam investments , lehman bros . , kpmg , meridien research , salomon smith barney , jp morgan , state street , banc of america , mckinsey , citizens power , and a host of other folks . we think we have a value - adding service to provide to enron online or any other enron subsidiary that the skg offering matches and that you deem fit . skg ' s founders and i will be very happy to provide you or your representative ( s ) with more details , including a demo of the prototype , in a meeting . we are therefore hopeful that you will be able to arrange something appropriate . thanks very much , jeff ! we look forward to hearing from you . with warm regards , joseph cherian and robert jarrow cc : professor robert c . merton joseph a . cherian associate professor of finance boston university school of management 595 commonwealth avenue , room 522 h boston , ma 02215 tel : 617 - 353 - 2679 ( o ) 617 - 353 - 6667 ( fax )",0

"Subject: full circle : asps the new big blue ? network world fusion focus : mike jude and nancy meachim on application service providers today ' s focus : full circle : asps the new big blue ? 03 / 15 / 00 dear wincenty kaminski , today ' s focus : full circle : asps the new big blue ? by mike jude and nancy meachim the terms & asp 8 and & ibm 8 may have more in common than being three - letter acronyms . remember big blue of the early + 60 s ? the vision , then , was centralized computing . mainframe computers hosted complex , expensive applications that end users accessed via dumb terminals . it infrastructure , especially memory , was expensive and needed to be controlled . with computing resources centralized , ibm reasoned , they were easier to maintain . of course , ibm got it wrong , in that computers became a cheap commodity . and users weren , t happy simply using dumb terminals . they wanted a bigger share in all that technology offered . so , as memory prices fell , so did the idea of central control . dumb terminals were transformed into intelligent desktop machines that could store applications and data . the glass house populated by white - smocked technicians went out of fashion . looking back on those times , many of us would shake our heads and wonder how ibm could have been so wrong . but maybe big blue wasn , t so far off . thanks to the advent of application service providers , centralized computing is making a comeback . asps offer centralized application management . the market started as a way to offer the benefits of server advertisement protocol and other complex enterprise resource planning software to small companies or companies with less technical savvy . but asps now host all kinds of applications , including small , multilicensed programs whose images are downloaded to end users on demand . but , the principle remains the same : central control makes support much more efficient and usually cheaper . how about that , ibm ? to be fair , the dynamics of an asp are very different from old centralized mainframe operations . an asp doesn , t just host and support an application for general distribution over an in - house proprietary network . unlike the ibm vision , an asp is very dependent on network service . it is also very sensitive to service levels . in the + 60 s , if the mainframe let you down , you ended up twiddling your thumbs for an hour or so , and your only recourse was that white - smocked fellow . nowadays , users start to scream if service is interrupted for even a minute . and woe to the asp who brings down a customer operation . the world of the asp is much more complex than that of the old + 60 s shop . however , if one could magically transport a computer user from the + 60 s to the wonderful new 2000 s , would it seem all that different to him ? in an ideal asp world , a la scott mcnealy , s vision , users would sit down at a semidumb terminal , download the application du jour , and start working . what did the + 60 s user do ? kind of the same thing ! so you are probably wondering , what is the point ? just this : ibm , s problem was leaving the customer out of the equation . and look what happened . customers rebelled . they didn , t buy ibm , s spiel . it became the & in 8 thing to hate ibm . why ? because the guys in white smocks couldn , t spell service and didn , t care about customers . to be successful , asps need to learn from the past . they need to tattoo service on the forehead of each of their employees . there are too many choices , today , for customers to put up with inferior service . that , s one big difference from the + 60 s . customers now can literally choose any service provider in the world . just being big doesn , t cut it these days . to contact mike jude and nancy meachim : - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - senior consultant michael jude and research director nancy meachim are with enterprise management associates in boulder , colo . , ( http : / / www . . com ) , a leading analyst and market research firm focusing exclusively on all aspects of enterprise management . jude has over 18 years of experience in the telecommunications industry , most recently with us west , where he was a manager of public policy . mike can be reached at mailto : jude @ . com . meachim focuses on e - business management . she is currently conducting a research study on asp management that is due to be released in april . nancy ' s email address is mailto : meachim @ . com . for related links - - click here for network world ' s home page : http : / / www . nwfusion . com buzz : application otsourcing , network world fusion , 09 / 27 / 99 asp research page , network world all about asps information center for application service providers , their customers and delivery partners . includes resources , events and news . the asp industry consortium . http : / / www . aspindustry . org / subscription services to subscribe or unsubscribe to any network world e - mail newsletters , go to : to change your email address , go to : subscription questions ?

"" eei urges epa to maintain its commitment to resolving the key scientific and technological issues , "" said paul bailey , eei vice president , environmental affairs . given these uncertainties , eei is disappointed that the regulatory determination includes statements regarding public health threats and hazards that are unsupported by current science , "" said mr . bailey .

"Subject: transport model andy , the scale effect in the transport model can be explained . i use a european option to do the illustration . i raise the underlying and strike price by the same amount , use the fuel percentage to adjust the strike . the net result is the intrinsic value decreases as the level goes up . if the fuel percentage is not very high , the option premium actually increases with the level , although the intrinsic value decreases . if the fuel percentage is very high ( > 8 % ) , then we see a decreasing option price . in the transport deal , fuel change is often below 5 % , so you will not see a decreasing spread option price when nymex moves up . so i think the transport model still does what it should do . zimin in the following exmaple , i used r = 6 % , vol = 20 % , t = 100 days , see spreadsheet for details . - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - forwarded by zimin lu / hou / ect on 10 / 20 / 2000 01 : 24 pm - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - zimin lu 10 / 20 / 2000 10 : 45 am to : andrew h lewis / hou / ect @ ect cc : colleen sullivan / hou / ect @ ect , stinson gibner / hou / ect @ ect subject : level effect in transport andy , the following spread sheet domenstrates the leve effect in transport valuation . i add an "" nymex add - on "" to both delivery and receipt price curve before fuel adjustment , keep everything else the same . the transport value ( pv of the spread options ) increases when nymex add - on increases . i can visit you at your desk if you have further question . zimin",0

"Subject: re : london research prc dale , thanks for the update . i fully concur with all the rankings . it seems things are going well with the research group in london and this is , to a very large extent , your contribution . i think that anjam has improved a lot . i don ' t think , however , that he can run the group in the future . steve emerged as a natural leader and has overwhelming support in the organization . vince dale surbey 06 / 15 / 2000 02 : 28 am to : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect cc : subject : london research prc vince , we had the prc preranking for rac and research in london yesterday . here ' s how everyone came out : steven - superior : no controversy here . steve received consistently strong feedback ( ranked as either superior or excellent in all categories ) . the only rough spot was teamwork , arising from the friction between anjam and himself . anjam - excellent : anjam received rankings of superiors or excellents in all categories . several reviewers commented that anjam ' s performance in the areas of producing results in a timely manner and communication have improved . i felt the overall ranking of excellent was justified based on this feedback , even though in terms of leadership i don ' t rate him high enough to run the group here . stinsen provided the most insightful comment on anjam ' s performance : "" technically superior but lets his quest for a leadership position detract from his overall performance "" . on a related topic , anjam has been taking random days off , typically on short notice , so i suspect he ' s interviewing for a new job . given his inability to work with steven ( especially in the future when stephen heads the group ) , this may be the best long - term solution . any thoughts ? ben - superior : another non - controversial ranking . ben received consistently high marks from all the groups he supports , especially in the area of non - technical skills . i nominated ben for promotion to senior specialist . even though he was promoted at year end , he ' s taken on a lot of responsibility training kirstee and helping manage the other quant resources in brian ' s group . also , since kirstee was hired in at the same level as ben , a mid - year promotion is appropriate since he ' s effectively her supervisor . kirstee - strong : only limited feedback in the 2 months she ' s been here . high marks for technical / quantitative , strong in the "" soft "" skills . i think the strong rating is the right message for early in the game - gives her a target for improvement for the rest of the year . - dale",0

"Subject: dispatch within maharashtra jim , please find attached some slides that show the results of the henwood run giving dispatch for the dabhol plant within maharashtra . i have also sent the presentation we made to you to wade . he is to get back on when would be an appropriate time for him to go over the presentation with me . vince , stinson and i have placed ourselves on rebecca ' s calender for friday , and we will make the complete pitch to her . it would be great if you too could be present at the meeting . if it is possible , please do let me know . on the attached slides , please note that : the slides all assume that there is a 1 part power tariff , mseb liability for the entire capacity payment is not considered . the henwood model was with no power flowing out of maharashtra when variable o & m costs , fixed o though in some months ( jan ) it goes as high as $ 69 mm . hence , overall , mseb can pay for the dispatches as shown in the henwood run provided , they are not paying for the capacity payment for the whole 2184 mw plant . in conclusion , therefore , mseb has the need for between 1200 to 410 mw on a seasonal basis . this means that the power remaining to be sold to other states is the difference between that and 2184 mw . however , since the demand within maharashtra varies seasonally , it may mean that we need to market seasonal products to other states , not long term blocks . these are our conclusions . we may continue to work some more on the fuel and hedging side . if you have any more questions for me , please let me know , else for now there will not be any new henwood runs . regards , sandeep .",0

"Subject: adaptive trade vince , zimin , i participated in a telephone conference on this company this morning . there was a possibility enron would invest in it . their product appears to be a gui interface over the top of ilog solver ( and possibly ilog cplex ) which allows problems to be expressed in high level terms . i do not see any immediate application at enron , but i am interested in the concepts used so expressed an interest in a demo . maybe it would be useful for general modelling projects here . they do not even have a user manual for their software , so it will be difficult to figure out what it does unless a demo is arranged . the possibility for growth in the company seems small as the ilog software is a modest size market and their product is aimed at only a small part of that market . i think the scheduling tools in sap , i 2 , etc are more likely to succeed than this one as they are already integrated into an information system . because of the small market for this software , the many competitors , the absence of any clear use for it at enron and the early stage of development , there is very little prospect of us funding this company . tom",0

"" for the insurance buyer , such exchange instruments would not represent the perfect risk transfer vehicle , but as long as they are quantifiable and indexable , they may represent a good surrogate , "" he said . the exchanges could also be used to create a derivatives market for over - the - counter securitized deals , if there are regular issuers of catastrophe bonds , mr . lane said . the soft insurance market has also hindered the growth of exchange - based insurance products , said sean f . mooney , senior vp and chief economist at guy carpenter & co . , the reinsurance brokerage unit of marsh inc . in new york . "" the traditional market has been so competitive that people are not looking for other ways of doing business , "" he said . at least in concept , the exchange - based deals are generally similar to the mortgage - backed securities that have been a huge success since they were introduced in the 1970 s . "" there is a belief that alternative means of transferring risks will grow , but it is difficult to predict when , "" mr . mooney said . currently , the trading that is taking place typically involves established insurers and reinsurers , so the exchanges have not brought substantial new capacity to the marketplace , he said . guy carpenter provided the index for the bermuda commodities exchange reinsurance products . the bce did not take off , however , and was suspended last year after two years of little activity . the oldest of the insurance - related , exchange - based derivative products are the catastrophe options traded on the chicago board of trade , which began trading the options in 1996 . initially , there was substantial interest in the options , but the soft traditional market has hampered use of the contracts to hedge catastrophe exposures , said carlton purty , an independent broker at the cbot who trades in options . no catastrophe option trades have been completed at the cbot so far this year , he said . last year , there was increased interest in the contracts because of hurricane floyd , but few contracts were traded , mr . purty said . "" i think a major , major catastrophe will have to happen before they really take off , "" he said . the contracts offer real protection , and options dealers are keen to trade in a new niche , but the conventional insurance and reinsurance markets are so soft that few companies are turning to alternative coverage options , mr . purty said . the catastrophe risk exchange , located in princeton , n . j . , has radically changed its structure since it was originally announced in mid - 1996 , and it is well positioned to expand , said frank sweeney , chief operating officer . catex initially planned to be a computer - based facility for reinsurers that would enable them to exchange catastrophe risks and to build balanced portfolios . but by the time the exchange was operational in november 1996 , it was clear that most reinsurers and insurers interested in catex wanted only to buy and sell conventional reinsurance , mr . sweeney said . although there was some interest in risk swapping , only a handful of risks were posted on the system , and none was traded , mr . sweeney said . consequently , catex has become chiefly a "" cash for cover "" exchange , he said , noting that the risks reinsured on the exchange include property catastrophe coverage , aviation and liability coverages . catex also trades industry loss warranties , where coverage is triggered by an actual loss combined with an industry loss over an agreed threshold . other adjustments to the exchange included making it accessible through the internet in november 1998 . and late last year , catex offered users the ability to set up smaller networks , allowing them form groups whose members do business only with one another . since its inception , catex has completed about 450 trades , totaling $ 400 million in premium and more than $ 3 billion in limits , he said . catex ' s roughly 160 subscribers include reinsurers , insurers and corporate entities that purchase coverage through their captives , mr . sweeney said . "" we obviously have a long way to go , but we are pretty satisfied with what we have achieved so far , "" mr . sweeney said . the exchange sees increased activity after major losses , as cedents seek to buy replacement coverage to offset depletions in their existing cover , he said . for example , mr . sweeney said , there was a flurry of activity after the european windstorms in december last year . last september , the chicago mercantile exchange entered the field of insurance - related derivatives when it began offering weather derivatives . thus far , 420 futures contracts have been traded , said larry grannan , senior director in product marketing at the cme . such contracts are designed to allow businesses to hedge against weather - related losses . for example , a utility may sell less power in a mild winter , and it would be able to use the futures to hedge a resultant fall in revenues . the exchange first offered heat - based indexes for atlanta , chicago , cincinnati and new york . in january , it added philadelphia , dallas , des moines , las vegas , tucson and portland , and it began offering contracts based on cold weather . currently , most of the trades are between securities dealers themselves , but , eventually , the contracts will likely be used more extensively by utilities and insurers , mr . grannan said . in addition , the futures contracts could be used as hedges for over - the - counter securitized deals , he said . copyright , 2000 dow jones & company , inc . all rights reserved .",0

"" the 326 companies we surveyed are planning on an 18 . 2 percent increase , versus a 10 . 2 percent rise budgeted in december , "" said james d . crandell , who follows oil services and drilling for the new york investment banker . he emphasized that the gain by the 326 producers in lehman ' s survey reflects increases in budgets for 2000 and not underspending of budgets during 1999 . "" among the companies that were included in our december 1999 and may 2000 surveys , global spending actually came in slightly above what was estimated to have been spent during 1999 in december . it also indicates that nearly $ 6 billion has been added to 2000 worldwide exploration budgets since december , "" crandell said . the survey ' s respondents said that they planned to increase u . s . e & p expenditures by 17 . 6 percent , up from 15 . 9 percent earlier in the year . crandell said that the greater increase was driven almost entirely by independent producers . "" in our survey , 227 independents indicated e & p spending growth in 2000 of 26 . 1 percent versus a 22 . 9 percent increase budgeted for the year in december , "" he indicated . "" some 40 percent of the independents we surveyed have increased their u . s . e & p budgets , while about 23 percent plan on spending less than what they indicated last december . higher natural gas prices and increased cash flow are the main drivers behind this . "" crandell said that anadarko petroleum corp . ( nyse : apc ) , apache corp . ( nyse : apa ) , bhp petroleum , h . s . resources inc . ( nyse : hse ) , mcmoran exploration co . ( nyse : ran ) , mdu resources group inc . ( nyse : mdu ) , mitchell energy and development corp . ( nyse : mnd . a and mnd . b ) , santa fe snyder corp . ( nyse : sfs ) , stone energy corp . ( nyse : sgy ) and titan exploration inc . - now pure resources inc . ( nyse : prs ) - were among the larger independents to make the most significant upward revisions . the ones that significantly reduced planned u . s . e & p outlays for the year included barrett resources corp . ( nyse : brr ) , belco oil and gas corp . ( nyse : bog ) , burlington resources inc . ( nyse : br ) , coastal corp . ( nyse : cgp ) , forcenergy inc . ( nyse : fen ) , houston exploration co . ( nyse : hex ) , kerr - mcgee corp . ( nyse : kmg ) , mariner energy corp . and williams production co . the survey found that major oil companies plan about the same percentage gain in their 2000 u . s . e & p expenditures ( 8 . 8 percent ) at midyear as they did at the beginning of the year ( 8 . 4 percent ) . among the 14 companies in this category , 31 percent made meaningful increases in their 2000 e & p spending estimates during the first six months , including amerada hess corp . ( nyse : ahc ) , conoco inc . ( nyse : coc . a and coc . b ) , occidental petroleum corp . ( nyse : oxy ) and total fina elf s . a . ( nyse : tot ) . another 19 percent - including eni spa ( nyse : e ) , royal dutch / shell ( nyse : rdp and stt ) and texaco inc .

"" compared with december , 41 percent of them have increased their estimated spending in 2000 by more than 10 percent , while 20 percent have reduced it by more than 10 percent . the remaining 39 percent have kept it within 10 percent of what was originally estimated , "" crandell said . talisman energy inc .

( nyse : mur ) , pan canadian petroleum ltd . ( tse : pcp ) and shell canada ltd . ( tse : shc ) . like their u . s . counterparts , producers above the border raised their 2000 e & p budgets in response to higher gas prices and increased cash flow , according to the lehman analyst . he said that foreign upstream budgets were an area of surprise : "" the 14 . 9 percent gain indicated by the 99 oil and gas companies that have operations outside the united states and canada was well above the 5 . 7 percent increase for 2000 estimated last december . as in other geographies , there were more companies that increased budgets than decreased them . "" overall , crandell said that 33 percent of the surveyed companies raised their 2000 e & p budgets by more than 10 percent , 43 estimated expenditures in roughly the same range and 24 percent indicated that they would spend less than originally planned . he said that the larger increases were driven by some big companies which materially increased their budgets , including texaco , petroleos brasileiros s . a . , petroleos mexicanos s . a . and repsol ypf s . a . ( nyse : rep ) among the multinationals and amerada hess , apache , premier oil plc . and woodside energy among mid - sized companies . crandell noted that while respondents ' average price assumptions rose during 2000 ' s first six months ( to $ 22 . 04 from $ 19 . 25 per barrel of crude oil and to $ 2 . 58 from $ 2 . 38 per thousand cubic feet of natural gas ) , they still trail current prices and what lehman brothers estimates for the year ( $ 28 per barrel of crude and $ 3 . 30 per mcf of gas ) .

"Subject: re : "" expected tail loss "" for equity portfolio everybody , i attached here the equity portfolio var spreadsheet model ( version x ) . the improvement over the previous version ( 1 x ) is that it calculates an additional measure of risk - expected tail loss . expected tail loss is the expectation of the loss under the condition that losses exceed var . as you know equity var model allows you to calculate var for the percentile specified in the input sheet . now you have to click 2 more buttons on the "" varinput "" sheet : "" calculate gamma and delta "" and "" fast var "" . isaac , please run the model to make sure it works for you . regards , tanya",0

"Subject: petrochem desk i had a chance to speak with christian lebroc this morning with regard to curve building for petrochemicals . as it turns out , christian left rac in april and joined the petrochem desk as a trader . previous efforts at construction of a forward curve by the group have focused on intuition or swags . unfortunately , the group had a rough p & l year with at least some of the blame directed toward the forward curve or lack thereof . when asked about the fundamentals group , christian indicated that they ' d only been around about 3 - 4 months and are not yet well - suited to curve building . john nowlan is indeed the head of the group . from a timing perspective , i told christian that it would probably take at least 6 - 8 weeks to develop a curve , especially considering the need to understand the key market drivers / fundamentals . as was suggested yesterday during our meeting , a strong relationship between petrochemicals and a nymex component ( e . g . , crude oil ) would provide a great beginning point - - we could then potentially strengthen / augment this relationship with other key factors ( e . g . , supply and demand terms ) borne out of our market research . nelson",0

( b ) how enron is disciplining the internal decision making process with market . this is in many ways the critical aspect of real options that most finance people miss - - having options is one thing but exercising them and realizing their value is another . all of the incomplete contracting , asymmetric information , and incentive issues are ignored in real options valuation models . but they are real in practice . my impression is enron ' s real success is in putting place an organization that is able to mitigate these problems by imposing a market disciplining . ( c ) how enron manages the various books that involve physicals , financials , credit etc . this is specially important when many of the real assets have options features and therefore , include non - linear risk profiles . the story of gas is pretty well understood but not many of the others markets enron has been moving into over the last few years . on the gmii front , i think that some interesting opportunities arise when you think of the spectrum in a way similar to that of dark fiber . i am working with several people at lucent on this issue . i think it would be wonderful to engage in a conversation with enron and lucent folks in the room . i can do a lunch time talk on any of these issues . perhaps we can discuss some of these over a conference call . clearly , having vince kaminski in the room would be very important to me . as for schedules , the first 3 weeks of april are horrible . april 26 / 27 , may 3 / 4 are good for me . regards nalin at 06 : 56 pm 03 / 22 / 2001 , mack , iris wrote : > hi , > > as we briefly discussed , i spoke with one of my colleagues ( dr . > martin lin ) about your visiting enron to give a talk and to spend some > time with us to discuss you work in telecommunications , real options , > etc . > > martin and i are working on various broadband related problems . > > we thought it might be helpful if you let us know a bit more about > the following : > * when you want to come ( the research group has weekly > catered lunch on thursday and brown bag lunches on every other friday ) . > > * a description of what you want to talk about with respect > to telecoms , broadband , etc . > * who you would like to meet with me - vince kaminski ( our > boss ) , any other of our colleagues in research , broadband , etc . > . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . etc . > > > > > look forward to hearing from you . > > regards , > iris",0

"Subject: california update 1 / 22 / 01 executive summary discussions continue today over bill ablx , focus will be on price and term . new legislation introduced today whereby the state will try to save the utilities from bankruptcy by taking ownership of utilities ' hydro assets in exchange for rate increases . wednesday , state receives bids from auction , rate ranges are expected to be between 5 . 5 and 8 . 0 cents per kilowatt hour . mid week , audit findings will be released ; audit expected to show pg & e ' s utility subsidiary handed over $ 5 b to the holding company . the holding company used $ 4 . 4 b to pay shareholder dividends and buyback stock . state commissioned study to see who would benefit more in a possible bankruptcy scenario . bankruptcy still very possible for both companies . davis concerned about possible ballot issues and how those may effect futue solutions or "" bail out "" . legislation there will be continued discussion regarding bill ablx in the senate today . the discussion will focus on the rate cap of 5 . 5 cents per kilowatt hour as well as the term . assemblyman keeley , the author , indicated that he believed 5 . 5 cents was "" a fantasy "" and impossible to obtain . today , assembly speaker bob hertzberg , d - sherman oaks and assemblyman fred keeley , d - boulder creek will introduce legislation whereby the state would temporary or permanently take both pg & e and edision ' s hydroelectric facilities or transmission lines ( or both ) in exchange for keeping the utilities out of bankruptcy . the state would allow pg & e and edison to impose rate increases , however , the rates would not rise beyond the hikes approved earlier this month by the cpuc as an emergency surcharge . the money collected from consumers would go toward paying off their current debt and the state would then enter into long - term contracts with power generators . under the bill , the state of california would control 10 % of all california ' s electricity . as you can imagine , this legislation has not received unanimous praise . according to recent corporate filings , pg & e ' s hydroelectric plants alone would be valued between $ 3 and $ 5 billion . this amount just happens to be what davis estimates to be the final amount of money the state will have to guarantee once the audit of the utility companies is released and the political pressure is escalated on the parent companies to absorb some of the $ 12 billion in debt . davis is telling people that he thinks the audit will show the state should help with about $ 4 billion in debt , while the utilities , of course , say the full $ 12 billion should be covered . on wednesday , state officials will see the results of sealed bids from energy suppliers for long term contracts and see how close to reality their effort to keep utility rates unchanged for consumers will come . davis insists there are already several bids for his 5 . 5 cents per kilowatt hour ceiling , though few agree with his opinion . a handful of smaller , independent electricity providers with about a 30 % share of california power market , indicated sunday night they would come down to "" less than eight cents "" or less than half of what they currently charge , in return for the stability of long term contracts . because consumers pay about 6 . 5 cents per kilowatt hour for electricity under current puc rules , any hope california has to "" work off "" the back debts for these utilities lies in hitting something very close to davis ' price cap , without falling back on higher prices for consumers . the level of bids will be particularly important since bond rating agencies moved to put the state of california on a credit watch on friday , worried that there was no obvious long - term repayment plan for the billions of dollars they are on the hook for spending to keep the lights on in the state . utility ' s audit by the middle of this week , california auditors will release their findings about how much money pg & e and socal edison actually owe to institutions outside their own holding company structure . this will define the limits of what the state will guarantee , if they guarantee any of the debt . the truly explosive part of the audit may be its findings that the two companies used billions of dollars from consumers to buy back their own stock in recent years . a source with knowledge of the audits said the audit is expected to show that in the last three years , pg & e ' s utility subsidiary handed over about $ 5 billion to the holding company . of that total , the holding company used $ 4 . 4 billion to pay shareholder dividends and buyback shares of its stock . another finding from the audit shows that state helped caused the current power crisis when regulators , at the time of deregulation ( under the direction of former r - gov . pete wilson ) , forced the two utilities to sell at least half of their power - generating plants . auditors are expected to say that if the utilities still owned all these plants , electricity would cost only 7 cents a kilowatt hour , compared with over 30 cents an hour on average in december and january . bankruptcy the threat of bankruptcy is still very real for both utilities . senior advisors said that these utilities were on the path often followed by utility companies that ended in bankruptcy . as all the parties involved hunker down for another intensely political week , they all remain determined to avoid bankruptcy , but to push this as close to the brink as possible in the hopes of squeezing out an advantage . under such conditions , the risks of one or more of the players fumbling and triggering the great unknowable outcome of bankruptcy , is still quite high . california ' s political leaders order a series of independent analyses to determine who would suffer most in a case of bankruptcy , the state or the two utilities . the short answer was that no one has any idea . below are the findings of the report and some of the possible scenarios that would face a bankruptcy judge : 1 ) would the companies be eligible for chapter 11 style temporary bankruptcy ? some of the advisors thought that pg & e and edison ' s finances were so bad that chapter 11 style temporary bankruptcy may not even be an option . advisors said that a bankruptcy judge might take a good look at the corporate debt load and decide that reorganization would do no good and order the companies into full liquidation . this would most certainly be guaranteed chaos . 2 ) could the bankruptcy court actually force the puc to raise the price of electricity to consumers ? the legal basis for passing on rate increases to consumers is a lot less solid than originally thought , particularly if there is widespread public outrage directed at the electricity companies . and there is still the question of the unilateral power of a bankruptcy judge . 3 ) if the bankruptcy judge takes his job of protecting corporate assets seriously and finds that pg & e and edison cannot afford to buy electricity , he could order them to stop buying it and thus lead to massive power outages . 4 ) if the utilities go into bankruptcy , the first creditors in line would be the lenders and bondholders with collateral pledges . the state could become almost the last creditor in line as it is just another electricity supplier ( one of the reasons why suppliers won ' t sell electricity on credit to these companies now ) . 5 ) if the two companies went bankrupt , it would be the largest bankruptcies in history , straining just about everyone involved in the process . 6 ) the corporate approval allowing the parent company to segregate assets from the utility by the ferc for pg & e and already in place for edison may be far less effective than the utilities or the ratings agencies currently think . this is particularly true if this week ' s audit shows the two corporations transferring billions of dollars in the last few years into stock buybacks and shareholder dividend payments . davis opinion polls show that governor gray davis is getting high marks for his job , and the utilities are increasingly viewed as the culprits . one of davis concern ' s is , according to a senior official in the governor ' s office , that a deal is carved out that triggers a popular ballot initiative which is so anti - utility and anti - business that it cripples future growth in the state . according to a senior official , "" no one thought howard jarvis and his property tax initiative would succeed in destroying our education system , but he did , with one just ballot line and a lot of popular revulsion . the threat of direct , popular action is at least as large now as then . "" consumer advocate harvey rosenfield is already threatening to draw up a ballot initiative at the first sign that individual electricity consumers are being asked to help the utility companies repay their debt through higher rate - payer bills . this official goes on to say , "" the anger at utility companies is so high here , that almost anything rosenfield could think of would pass and we couldn ' t do anything about it . "" this threat has begun to complicate the one escape route on the debt front that had always appeared wide open to political leaders - - floating a bond issue or a guarantee for the money owed to institutions outside the corporate holding structure , and then letting the companies work that off with profits over the next several years .",0

"Subject: just fyi vince , please see below some of the ideas being bounced , fyi . please keep this confidential . the unused capacity in maharashtra should be dispatched on a merchant basis , on behalf of mseb to any customers outside mseb ' s current purview . i would like us to look at the whole issue as one of mseb ' s poor credit , and hence ( as jeff pointed out on the call ) , one where we need to identify all deep pockets in and out of maharashtra . secondly , there is ( as shubh and i had pointed out ) the ability to evacuate about 700 - 1000 mw to customers other than mseb . the challege is - at what price , and in coordination with which agencies . as always , in india your greatest challenge will be in dealing with govt . agencies . another point to consider is that in - all we have about 5 - 7 customers identified . will all the customers we have earmarked bite ? ? ? this is the reason why systems need to be set up with a bulletin board on pricing 10 - 15 day power on the screens of the different sebs we can connect up with . this also substantially gets around the credit quality issue , as this would be an arrangement akin to cash - and - carry . i see a lot of hope for such a strategy . i do not see much hope for a strategy of selling blocks of power to either ntpc or ptc . i would agree however , that we not put all our eggs in one basket , and hence you could designate a team to look into the ntpc sale issue inparallel . in order to set up the trading sytems , however , we need to start by the end of ql 2001 , and just start doing small deals where we break even , simply to test the waters and introduce liquidity into the market . hand - in - hand with this we need a fuel risk management strategy , as i have been pushing for . for this to happen , we need to get the special import licence reinstated . if that is not possible , we need to lobby with the highest authorities within govt . and rbi to allow for hedging , irrespective of whether we have an sil . the discussions being held with ioc are therefore very important in this regard , and i am going to get anshuman and mukesh involved with the same . finally , i do not see much hope for your strategy of asking ene management for $ 75 million to build transmission lines in a country where the regulatory framework on transmission access is even less defined and understood than the generation side of the equation . i would refrain from stating this in any senior management forum until we are able to clearly demonstrate the cost - benefit of this . i have some ideas on that side which i need to develop further . regards , sandeep .",0

"Subject: option pricing discrepancy for j . c . penny transaction amitava and seksan have identified the source of the discrepancy between the option prices calculated by the credit - reserve model and the stand - alone spreadsheet model used in deal pricing . the discrepancy can be traced to differences in input variables of the two models and not to any algorithmic differences . the options being priced are a strip of options on monthly instruments . the credit reserve simulation program calculates the time to expiration by assuming that the option expires on first day of the contract month of the underlying contract , which is a very reasonable assumption . the stand - alone option pricing spreadsheet allows specification of the option expiration date independent of the contract month of the underlying . in the jc penney transaction , the monthly options were assumed to expire in the middle of the contract month , when in reality the underlying monthly contracts expire before the start of their respective contract months . the stand - alone spreadsheet model allows such specifications and it is up to the user to ascertain that the expiration dates entered are legal . at present , seksan is ascertaining that the option contracts involved are in deed monthly options and not a strip of daily options , in which case we would require estimates of intramonth volatilities for both the spreadsheet model and the credit reserve model . regards , rabi de",0

"Subject: a & a math majors vince , thank you so much for meeting with me friday morning about the research group . after leaving your office , i remembered an issue i have had with the analyst & associate program that might be of interest to you . during a texas a & m recruiting meeting , i learned that we have expanded our list of majors to include computer science . i wondered why math majors were not mentioned , and was told that there was not a business need for math majors . like liberal arts majors , they said math majors were only considered on a person by person basis . in my opinion , math majors have many of the same skills as finance majors , and can easily adjust to accounting rotations as well ( i did last summer , and finance majors in the program are forced to every year . ) i think that enron is missing out on many qualified candidates by limiting their recruitment effort . at texas a & m the career center asks companies for a list of majors they are targeting , and only allows those majors to sign up for interviews through the career center . i sent my resume to enron and asked to be included in the interview process on campus . however , many other math majors had not heard of enron or the other companies , and assumed that there was no place for a math major at a company like enron . many math majors want to continue their education , become teachers , or work for an actuarial firm . however , many are undecided . we are constantly told of the many business possibilities available to math majors by our teachers and staff , but many undergraduates are still not sure exactly what math majors can contribute in a business environment . by not mentioning math majors to the career center ( a very simple and inexpensive step ) , enron is losing out on a very talented pool of people . while it would be nice to get the math majors that knew about enron already , had thoroughly researched all companies and determined that math majors would fit perfectly , and went the extra step to send enron their resume outside the career center system , there are many qualified students who do not do this , and opt for other companies who did mention math majors . i called a manager in the a & a program to suggest that we consider at least mentioning math majors to the career centers . i realize that it may cost more to actively pursue them , talk to teachers , and attend math society events . however , i told her that including them at the career center would be very inexpensive for enron . she reiterated that they saw no business need for math majors , and that if more upper level people began requesting them , it would be considered . i searched for "" mathematics "" on the enron job website , and had a surprising number of results . i know that your group could use math majors as well . however , this still may be too small a number to merit a focus from the a & a recruiting department . i just wanted to bring it to your attention in case it was something that you felt should be changed . thanks , heather johnson x 53240",0

"Subject: re : ebs var transaction policy i have two things biting me . first is time . i need to turn a draft for hannon and rice asap . so , the value of a deliberative approach to coming up with a v @ r policy will quickly evaporate if we take 2 weeks to study what the policy should say . second , i have a unique situation . our concept of v @ r is really unlike the rest of enron ' s today . what happens today is that network engineers unilaterally make decisions about deployment , configuration and other matters which effect the longs and shorts of our asset / contract portfolio that they view strictly from a network operating standpoint . a good example was a decision to move our primary terapop ( three large servers storing 165 gigabytes each ) from portland to la . the servers are already in place and purchased , so no capital was involved . but the decision has huge ramifications on the future la / new york and other bandwidth usage , and that cost money . now it could be that the la / new york cost is cheaper than the portland / new york cost , the whole point is no one knows . what our "" value - at - risk "" policy attempt to corral is these types of decisions and put them into the hands of the risk management group , where the decision will be made with at least some economic work behind it . i really see the ebs v @ r policy to be misnamed , since we don ' t really have the math done to calc v @ r . it really is a volumetric - based control policy that says you can ' t make network changes over xx amount of megabytes ( a storage measure ) or oc - 3 equivalents ( a bandwidth measure ) without risk management making or approving the decision . i do believe that with research ' s help , we can in time actually calculate the v @ r impact of such decisions . at that time , the policy should be modified to set metrics based on the v @ r calculations . so if you have an open enough mind to let us co - op your word for a minute , we need to start turning the minds of the network industry people into thinking about their decisions as having value effects . said directly , kevin hannon has given me authority to write a policy to move control over significant network changes from the field to the trading floor , and i am going to issue something now to effectuate that . . . . . . so . . . i really want your views on what we are doing , but thought you needed some flavor and an sense of the urgency . if you can weigh in , do so quickly . . . . . barry pearce 06 / 30 / 00 04 : 47 am to : john echols / enron communications @ enron communications , lou casari / enron communications @ enron communications cc : subject : re : ebs var transaction policy positive . . . . - - - - - forwarded by barry pearce / enron communications on 06 / 30 / 00 04 : 49 am - - - - - ted murphy @ ect 06 / 29 / 00 11 : 33 am to : barry pearce / enron communications @ enron communications @ enron cc : subject : re : ebs var transaction policy barry , conceptually , i see no reason that a process like this can not be implemented . in some way we have attempted to do so through the enron corp transaction approval process ( tap ) . i have forwarded to john a copy of this , along with the risk management policy . i ' ll let him share with you if ok ( i really don ' t want to act as the firm ' s in - house kinko ' s !

"Subject: re : pricing credit on thousands of names we can continue the discussion in tuesday ' s conference call , but i discussed with ben about the issues below , and here are some thoughts . this is not a complete approach , but only a starting point for discussion . the main task is to build a pricing system for many names . this has two components - - - 1 ) how to price a single name ? 1 . 1 ) how to price a liquid single name ? 1 . 2 ) how to price an illiquid single name ? 2 ) how to efficiently apply the methodology to multiple names ? the approach i would take for 1 . 1 is a ) define a small set of liquid names b ) apply each of the different models we have , say , the six models ben has mentioned below , to these names c ) include market prices , if any , for these names d ) sit with traders , get trader ' s intuition on where each liquid name should price and note this on the spectrum of prices obtained in ( b ) and ( c ) e ) try to determine attributes of the names that may explain the dispersion of the trader prices across the models f ) quantify these attributes , if possible g ) try a different set of liquid names and repeat the process , and see if the decisions in the last round still make sense the approach for 1 . 2 may be a ) define a small set of illiquid names b ) apply each of the different models we have to these names c ) sit with traders , get trader ' s intuition on where each illiquid name should price and note this on the spectrum of prices obtained in ( b ) d ) try to determine attributes of the names that may explain the dispersion of the trader prices across the models e ) check if these are similar to the attributes identified for liquid names f ) define a master set of liquid names g ) look for relationships ( by analyzing cross - section of data ) between attributes or prices of illiquid names to those of liquid names once a mapping has been defined for an illiquid name to a set of liquid names and their attributes , then this mapping can be entered into a table , and the pricing can be automated for all names ( in theory ) ! the success will depend on the success of the round - table sessions for the approaches for 1 . 1 and 1 . 2 . building a new fundamental model is always a worthwhile task , but we can get going with the above approaches immediately in parallel with developing any new models that we may build . new models can be added to the suite of existing models . i do not believe there will ever be a single model that will answer all questions for all names , but rather we can refine the mappings and relative choices among models over time , which would mean continuing round - table sessions with traders . limited data makes calibration very hard , so i would continually ask the question "" what do we calibrate ? "" throughout the discussions for 1 . 1 and 1 . 2 , and this may help guide us to new models . vasant benjamin parsons 06 / 19 / 2000 04 : 11 am to : ect london credit trading cc : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect , vasant shanbhogue / hou / ect @ ect , amitava dhar / corp / enron @ enron , steven leppard / lon / ect @ ect , grant masson / hou / ect @ ect , dale surbey / lon / ect @ ect , david a wall / risk mgmt / lon / ect @ ect , jitendra j patel / lon / ect @ ect , oliver gaylard / lon / ect @ ect subject : pricing credit on thousands of names all - our challenge for the next few months is to build an automated system to provide differential pricing on thousands of credits [ 5 , 000 by year - end ] . most of these credits will be illiquid in terms of market price information , making the challenge harder , and the end result more important in terms of competitive pricing advantage . what we need is an overall strategy for how we plan to achieve this from the quantitative perspective . currently we have several models for credit pricing either in use or under development : fmc model ( default probability approach ) . using bloomberg ' s fair market ( par yield ) curves , probabilities are generated from the risky - libor , then default / bankruptcy swap prices computed using expectation methodology . fmc model ( credit spread approach ) . using the fmcs , then directly taking the libor credit spread at each tenor , adjusting for basis and compounding differences . bond model ( fmc approach ) . taking the fmcs as benchmark curves , the model regresses the input bonds ( specific to a name ) on the two best fitting benchmarks . the result is a zero yield curve with the same shape as the fmcs , but with the level tweaked for the specific issuer . prices are then generated using both spread and probability approaches . under testing . bond model ( spline approach ) . taking only the bonds specific to an issuer , the model fits an exponential cubic spline to the zero - coupon price curve , then builds a zero yield curve from this . under testing . market prices . for certain liquid names , or sectors / ratings , cds market prices are used , then recovery and event discount used to get bankruptcy swap prices . kmv . using expected default frequencies ( edfs ) from the kmv model and database , we will build a model to price default swaps , making appropriate risk adjustments . kmv is being installed now , so model will be worked on next . each of these models returns a price ( credit default and bankruptcy ) , and the accuracy of the price depends on many factors - liquidity and regulatory differences between bond and cds markets , recovery assumptions , risk premia , capital charges , etc . the aim will be to accurately price as many liquid names as possible , based upon these models , then use these prices , alongside other financial information , as the backbone to a full automated pricing system . our inputs to the proposed pricing system for a specific name are model and market prices for all issuers , alongside name - specific ' soft ' data from credit reports and financial statements . if the credit is liquid enough , a price will be generated from their own information only . otherwise , the credit will be mapped onto a subset of liquid credits , with financial information and historical price movements providing the mapping and weights . the model price will then be periodically adjusted to align itself with market ( or trader ) prices , and this adjustment will feed back into the weighting and mapping composition . in loose terms , we could think of the system price for an illiquid credit as being a weighted average of liquid market prices ( bonds , equities , default swaps ) , where the weightings are calibrated using credit analysis , financial ratios , etc . the key steps to implementing such a system will be : establishing what exactly we want to ' predict ' - is it a price , a rating , a probability , or a score ? we will need a clean market history to calibrate to , which we only really have for ratings . we will then need to develop a mapping from rating / score to price . getting and cleaning the historical financial and credit data required to calibrate the model . building the mechanics of the model , ie , the calibration methodology . neural nets / fuzzy logic seem the obvious candidates , but which exact methods and software packages to use ? determining an automated methodology for mapping names with limited information into the model . getting the "" true "" market price , in order to feed back an error . at present such a price exists for very few credits . allocating resources to the development . mckinsey claimed such a system would take 6 - 10 man - months to develop . further ideas or comments are requested , as we need to develop our strategy asap . the model description above is fairly vague , as we don ' t yet have the knowledge needed to fill in the specific details . further help will be especially required on this if we are to continue to move at ' internet speed ' . regards ben",0

( attached is a summary of this issue . ) the board is expected to vote on this issue during may 2001 . eei will be taking steps to appraise fasb of our concerns . if you , or company cfo would like more information about this effort , please contact richard mcmahon , executive director of the alliance of energy suppliers , at rmcmahon @ eei . org , or at 202 -

wy ) , the first amendment would establish the electric energy market competition task force to study competition in the wholesale and retail market for electric energy in the united states . the task force would be made up of representatives of ferc , the department of justice and the federal trade commission , as well as non - voting representatives from the department of agriculture and the securities and exchange commission . the amendment also contained a provision , co - sponsored by sen . paul sarbanes ( d - md ) , that would preserve ferc ' s authority to require that energy rates are reasonable and do not include the pass - through of holding company costs that are unrelated to energy . another amendment , offered by sen . jon corzine ( d - nj ) , initiated a study by the general accounting office of the success of federal and state governments in preventing anticompetitive practices by public utility holding companies and in promoting competition and efficient energy markets . * * * institute s tax agreement with public power again introduced on hill * * * the tax agreement eei reached with the american public power association ( appa ) and the large public power council ( lppc ) again has been introduced in the house . the bill ( hr 1459 ) contains the same provisions as were in a measure ( hr 4971 ) , with technical corrections , introduced during the 106 th congress . hr 1459 was introduced by rep . j . d . hayworth ( r - az ) and nine original co - sponsors from the ways and means committee . hr 1459 contains four key provisions with tax code changes : 1 ) the tax - free sale or spin - off of transmission assets into an rto is allowed , 2 ) nuclear decommissioning laws are adapted to a competitive market by allowing deductions to a trust fund no longer subject to cost - of service ratemaking , 3 ) the contributions in aid of construction ( ciac ) tax on interconnections to transmission and distribution facilities is eliminated , and 4 ) private use tax rules are changed to permit open access to transmission and distribution facilities . the measure was referred to the house ways and means committee , and eei has urged congress to act without delay in moving it forward . enactment will help encourage a vigorous but fair competitive environment , the institute noted . the same legislation has been incorporated into s 389 , senate energy committee chairman frank murkowski ' s ( r - ak ) energy security bill , and stand - alone legislation could also be introduced . hearings are expected to be held in both the senate finance and house ways and means committees , probably after consideration of president bush ' s individual tax proposal . administration / ferc * * * white house seeks $ 2 trillion budget in fiscal year 2002 * * * president bush last week transmitted a $ 2 trillion fiscal year 2002 budget request to capitol hill . the administration noted that its proposal * moderates recent explosive growth in discretionary spending to four percent in 2002 , * an increase of $ 26 billion over the preceding fiscal year . the budget bid contains a $ 231 billion total surplus in 2002 , and projects a $ 5 . 6 trillion surplus over the next ten years . in the energy area , the administration noted the federal government s * longstanding and evolving role * in the sector , pointing out that most federal energy programs and agencies have no state or private counterparts . it proposed about $ 2 . 8 billion in discretionary spending for energy programs , and about $ 2 . 1 billion in tax benefits , * mainly to encourage development of traditional and alternative energy sources . * doe s budget request was $ 19 . 2 billion , including $ 2 . 3 billion for energy resources programs . this later figure represents a decrease of $ 196 million , or 7 . 9 percent , from fiscal year 2001 . in the environmental sector , the administration sought some $ 7 . 3 billion in discretionary funding for epa , including a $ 3 . 7 billion operating program focused on implementation of most federal pollution control laws . * * * success of restructuring tied to energy strategy , ferc s massey asserts * * * electric restructuring may be in jeopardy , and its success * is in the hands of regulators and policymakers , * ferc commissioner william massey has asserted . speaking at a recent national governors association policy forum in philadelphia , commissioner massey urged officials to pay attention to the key elements of a national energy strategy . first , he specified , there is a need for an adequate supply of the energy commodity . turning to a second element , commissioner massey told forum attendees that * all the supply in the world won t help unless it can be delivered over an adequate , efficient , non - discriminatory network . * commissioner massey identified market structure as the third essential element of a national energy strategy , while citing an inherent difficulty : that * good structure cannot be easily parsed between wholesale and retail jurisdictions . * accordingly , he said , ferc and the states must work together on market structure . the final element of a successful energy strategy , the commissioner specified , is the need for aggressive ferc intervention when markets fail to do their job . * if the states cannot depend on the wholesale market regulator to ensure reasonable prices for consumers , * he cautioned , they * will surely think twice before heading down the restructuring path . * new generation * * * dynegy to build second plant in kentucky * * * dynegy has announced plans to construct a new 330 megawatt plant adjacent to the riverside generating project in lawrence county , kentucky . dynegy will sell the power generated at the plant in the wholesale market . commercial operation is expected to begin first quarter of 2002 . * * * ppl to expand generation capacity * * * ppl corporation this week said it would build a 540 megawatt power plant near chicago and would increase the capacity of its susquehanna nuclear plant by 100 megawatts . ceo william hecht said the illinois plant is expected to be in service by the summer of 2002 . * * * constellation energy group announces eight new plants * * * constellation energy group this week announced that the company is scheduled to bring four peaking power plants on line this summer . additionally , four larger power plants are scheduled to enter service in the following two summers . the four peaking plants are located in illinois , pennsylvania , virginia and west virginia . the larger power plants are under construction in california , florida , illinois , and texas . * we re building in these seven states because they serve regions where wholesale electricity is needed and where we can provide energy to support our national power marketing business , * said constellation energy group chairman and ceo christian poindexter . * * * california energy commission approves construction of otay mesa generating plant * * * pg & e corporation s national energy group ( neg ) last week announced that the california energy commission ( cec ) has approved construction of the otay mesa generating plant in san diego county , which the neg has developed . the 500 megawatt project will produce enough electricity to power about 1 , 000 homes . after the development process is completed , calpine corporation will assume ownership of the project and will construct and operate the plant . neg will contract for up to half the plants output . energy data * * * weekly electric output ( week 15 ) * * * electric output reached 63 , 528 gwh for the week ending april 14 ( week 15 ) , with the highest increase over 2000 levels in the south central states , which both had a 12 . 6 percent increase over 2000 for week 15 . year -

"Subject: re : marketpoint license agreement dale , thanks for your message . in our phone conversation before the meeting you mentioned another contractual arrangement under which we could work with your company employees on a case - study . the cost of a weekly project would be $ 12 , 000 that would be applied to the purchase price should we go ahead and decide to acquire the software . this project would allow us to evaluate the model and come up with an estimate of the manpower necessary to support the model internally . please , let me know more about this option . we are primarily interested in a long - term natural gas model and the database for north america . unless a familiarity with the short term model is a prerequisite , we don ' t have resources to spend too much time on it . of course , a trading desk may be interested in the short term version of the model . i shall talk to them about it . vince "" dale m . nesbitt "" on 11 / 13 / 2000 06 : 00 : 05 pm to : , "" vince . j . kaminski "" cc : subject : marketpoint license agreement john / vince : i really enjoyed the meeting the other day with you and a broad cross section of your people . thank you very much for setting it up , and thank you for giving me the opportunity to speak with your people . as i mentioned to john , i am sending you the license paperwork for marketpoint . i have attached our standard license agreement for your consideration . as i mentioned , the license agreement covers the entire bundled product , which includes ? north american gas , short and long term ? north american electricity , short and long term ? world gas ? western european gas ? world oil we are just finishing porting the world oil , world gas , and western european gas models over from our old ( now obsolete ) software system into marketpoint , so they will not be fully tested and complete for a couple of months . however , the gas and electricity models for north america are presently complete and tested . that should allow us to give you an attractive price before the full worldwide toolkit is available throughout your worldwide business . as i understood it , you will want the gas modeling capability first and will want to defer decisions on electric or other capability . as i mentioned at the meeting , we are prepared to offer that for approximately the fully bundled price . as you read the license agreement , you will see that the software licenses for $ 100 , 000 annually , the gas data for $ 5 , 000 , and the electric data for $ 10 , 000 . marketpoint will agree to license you the gas model plus the data for the software license plus the data license for a total of $ 55 , 000 annually . this is just under the fully bundled price . i think that is consistent with the discussions at our meeting , and from marketpoint , s perspective would provide a great basis to move forward together with enron . if or when enron ever desires to & scale up 8 to another model or model ( s ) from the marketpoint portfolio , we will simply scale you up to the entire license agreement . this will allow you to decouple the gas decision from any other decisions you might make . ( i will be glad to put this additional pricing provision into the agreement if you decide to move forward . ) i felt i was able to communicate the philosophy , scope , and operation of our approach during the meeting and to deliver you much of the information you might need to evaluate whether marketpoint meets your needs . i thought you were able to see the depth and sophistication of the product yet at the same time its simplicity and effectiveness . i thought you were able to see the benefits of the marketpoint dimension of economic equilibrium as a complement and supplement to other approaches you will assuredly use . i would be interested in your impressions and those of your colleagues . i look forward to your response and to moving ahead together . we view you as a very important prospective customer and client and will work with you to earn and secure your business . if you decide to license marketpoint , we can arrange to transfer and mount marketpoint and the short term narg model ( which is the model we suggest you begin with ) and travel to houston to deliver our 1 day training seminar . our clients are usually very fluent after that 1 day training seminar . thereafter , we would want you to work with the short term narg model for a few weeks while you get up to speed , very fluent , and very comfortable before you take delivery of the longer term version of narg several weeks later . thanks again , and all the best . if there is some item from the meeting that i might have forgotten to send , please remind me . my notes don ' t show anything , but i was speaking a lot rather than writing notes during the meeting and might have overlooked something someone wanted . dale nesbitt president marketpoint inc . 27121 adonna ct . los altos hills , ca 94022 ( 650 ) 218 - 3069 dale . nesbitt @ marketpointinc . com - license . doc",0

"Subject: alliance info alert ferc acts to remove obstacles to address western energy crisis * * omnibus order mobilizes ferc ' s entire energy pricing and infrastructure authority * * to adopt financial incentives for capacity increases in transmission facilities * * streamlines regulation of wholesale market , energy facilities siting and licensing * * promotes conservation and wholesale side of demand - response bidding * * order doesn ' t address price caps * * meeting with western state regulators / officials set for april 6 , 2001 in boise , idaho ferc moves to bring more economic and reliable energy supplies to the stressed california and western energy markets . ferc proposes to increase bulk power supply in the west by removing barriers and providing incentives that are within its jurisdiction over facility certification , licensing , and the regulation of transmission and wholesale power sales in interstate commerce . ferc quickly wants to increase electric generation and transmission capacity , as well as to streamline the regulation of wholesale power transactions , as well as increase the capacity of the supporting infrastructure of natural gas and oil pipelines . the order , which sets new precedent in its broadness , also proposes actions to reduce electricity demand in the west as well as promoting the necessary wholesale - market portion of demand - response bidding where states wish to implement the retail side . ferc asks for comments on additional actions it may take in the future by march 30 , 2001 . effective immediately , ferc said in a statement , * the commission is streamlining regulatory procedures for wholesale electric power sales , expediting the certification of natural gas pipeline projects into california and the west , including the reallocation of staff resources to more quickly address pending pipeline applications , and urging all licensees to review their ferc - licensed hydroelectric projects in order to assess the potential for increased generating capacity . * among the actions ferc takes are to : 1 ) require the california iso and transmission owners within all 11 states of the western systems coordinating council ( wscc ) to prepare a list of grid enhancements that can be completed in the short term ; 2 ) waive prior notice requirements for any on - site or self - generators that sell at wholesale within the wscc area ; 3 ) grant blanket market - based rate authority for sales on the wholesale market of electric energy that becomes available as a result of demand - response reductions in retail and wholesale loads ; and 4 ) broadening and extending through december 31 , 2001 the temporary waivers of the operating and efficiency standards for qualifying facilities ( qfs ) to increase the availability of generating capacity . ferc seeks comments by march 30 on a series of economic incentives aimed at ensuring timely upgrades to the western transmission grid , including an increased rate of return on equity ( roe ) for projects that significantly increase transmission and can be in service by either june 1 , 2001 , or november 1 , 2001 . other areas that ferc requested comment on include the use of interconnection authority under the federal power act , and to raise the dollar limits on the issuance of blanket certificates authorizing gas pipeline construction . on hydro issues , ferc requested comment on ways to increase operating flexibility at ferc - licensed projects while protecting environmental resources . in its effort to encourage investment in transmission infrastructure , ferc asked for comments - again by march 30 - on a series of economic incentives aimed at ensuring upgrades to the western interconnection , including the increased roe for projects that significantly increase transmission on constrained paths and can be in service by the above dates in 2001 . increased roe , ferc said , will also be given to system upgrades over new transmission paths that can be in service by june 1 , 2002 , or november 1 , 2002 . ferc seeks comment on a proposed 10 - year depreciation period for projects that increase transmission capacity in the short - term and a 15 - year depreciation period for upgrades involving new rights - of - way that can be of service by november 1 , 2002 . in his dissent to the order , commissioner massey argued the order focuses on "" quick fixes , "" and that the measures will not close the gap between supply in demand in california . the order also "" fails to address price relief , "" noted massey . massey also called for a full federal power act ( fpa ) section 206 investigation of california issues , which would allow for the possibility of refunds . on transmission incentive provisions , massey lamented that the proposed roe increase to 14 percent appeared arbitrary and inconsistent with ferc policy under order no . 2000 . the financial provisions , he said , appeared to be "" just throwing money at the problem . "" while generally disappointed with the order , massey did express limited support for many parts of the order . many of the suggestions in the order are the "" same actions as authorized last may , "" said massey . "" they were good ideas then , and they are good ideas now , "" he concluded . for his part in comments at the open meeting when the order was adopted , chairman hebert said the order was designed to "" squeeze every additional mw of supply available "" and to encourage the conservation of mw , and stressed that ferc is "" doing all it can in its power to alleviate western problems . "" he said the order seeks to eradicate the projected supply shortfall in california , but noted that generation / transmission siting , and conservation are generally state issues . ferc ' s * removing obstacles * order is posted on its web site at : citation : ferc issued is order removing obstacles to increased electric generation and natural gas supply in the western united states and asking for comments was issued on march 14 , 2001 , docket no . elol - 47 - 000 . a detailed analysis and summary of the specific actions taken and proposals made follows : electric transmission infrastructure within 30 days , the california iso and transmission owners in wscc are to prepare and file for information purposes a list of grid enhancement projects that may be underway or may not require initial siting and acquisition of rights of way . ferc proposes a scaled transmission infrastructure incentive under which transmission owners of projects that increase transmission capacity at present constraints and can be in service by july 1 , 2001 would receive a cost - based rate reflecting a 300 basis point premium return on equity and a 10 - year depreciable life . projects in service by november 1 , 2001 , would get a 200 basis point premium and 10 - year depreciable life . ferc would use a uniform baseline return on equity for all jurisdictional transmission providers in wscc of 11 . 5 % , based on the roe ferc approved for southern california edison . system upgrades that involve new rights of way , add significant transfer capability and can be in service by november 1 , 2002 , would get a cost - based rate reflecting 12 . 5 % roe , or al 00 basis point premium , and 15 - year depreciable life . facilities needed to interconnect new supply to the grid , which go into service as required to accommodate the in - service date of the new plant would get a cost - based rate that reflected a 13 . 5 % roe , or a 200 basis point premium , if in service by november 1 , 2001 and 12 . 5 % roe if in service by november 1 , 2002 . for increases in transmission capacity on constrained interfaces that do not involve significant capital investments , for example , installing new technology , ferc proposes to allow transmission owners to increase the revenue requirement of their network service rates to ensure that each additional mw of capacity will generate revenues equal to their current firm point - to - point rate . ferc requests comment on whether to assign the cost of any interconnection or system upgrade to a particular load or supply , or alternatively , to roll these costs into the average system rate . extension of waivers for qfs ferc proposes to extend its temporary waivers of operating and efficiency standards for qfs - applicable throughout wscc - to allow increased generation through december 31 , 2001 . the waivers were to expire on april 30 , 2001 . the proposed waiver would allow qualifying cogenerators to sell their output above the level at which they have historically supplied this output to purchasing utility . the waiver for qualifying small power production facilities in wscc with respect to their fuel use requirements under ferc regulation section 292 . 204 ( b ) , would be extended to december 31 , 2001 . additional capacity from on - site generation ferc will adopt streamlined regulatory procedure to accommodate wholesale sales from such facilities that serve load within wscc . through december 31 , 2001 , owners of generating facilities located at business locations in wscc and used primarily for back - up or self - generation who would become subject to fpa by virtue of sales of such power will be permitted to sell power at wholesale without prior notice under fpa section 205 . ferc also authorizes such power to be sold at market - based rates . ferc waives its prior notice requirement for mutually agreed upon interconnection agreements for interconnections necessary to accomplish these sales . quarterly reporting is required . allows demand response bidding ferc will allow retail customers , as permitted by state law , and wholesale customers to reduce consumption for the purpose of reselling their load reduction at wholesale . ferc is granting blanket authorization , consistent with its prior discussion on sales from on - site generation and requires similar reporting . ferc ' s december 15 order on the california market directed , as a longer - term measure that the iso pursue establishing an integrated day - ahead market in which all demand and supply bids are addressed in one venue . ferc seeks comments on the desirability of accelerating action on this . ferc says it realizes that states play an important role in regulating retail electric service and that allowing retail load to reduce consumption for resale in wholesale markets raises legal , commercial , technical and regulatory issues . safeguards may be needed to protect and enhance retail demand - response bidding programs . intention is not to undermine state programs but to promote the necessary complementary wholesale programs . requests comments on how helpful this action is and how it can be accomplished consistent with state jurisdiction over retail sales . contract modifications for demand - response bidding there may be opportunities for public utilities to make other types of demand - response arrangements with their wholesale customers . as for mutually agreeable qf interconnections , ferc will waive prior notice requirement for any mutually agreeable demand - response related rate schedule amendments that may be required to effectuate these arrangements . clarifies that demand - response program costs should be treated consistently with all other types of incremental and out - of - pocket costs . interconnections fpa section 210 ( d ) allows ferc to issue an order requiring interconnection if it makes a finding that such an order : 1 ) is in the public interest ; 2 ) would encourage overall conservation of energy or capital , optimize the efficiency of use of facilities and resources , or improve the reliability of any electric utility system or federal power marketing agency to which the order applies ; and 3 ) meets the requirements of fpa section 212 . ferc requests comments on whether it can use this authority under fpa section 210 ( d ) to alleviate existing impediments to electricity reaching load . if the exercise of this authority may be warranted , ferc seeks comments on whether it could make some of the required findings generically for the wscc region in order to respond quickly should circumstances arise requiring immediate action . longer term regional solutions ferc believes an rto for the entire western region or the seamless integration of western rtos is the best vehicle for designing and implementing a long - term regional solution . natural gas pipeline capacity ferc has realigned its resources to respond to new applications for gas pipeline capacity and is soliciting comments on ways to expedite the approval of pipeline infrastructure needed to serve california and the west . requests comments on how it might further exercise its authority over new pipeline construction to alleviate the present crisis , including increasing the dollar limit thresholds for blanket certificates to $ 10 million , and for prior notice authorizations to $ 30 million in order to increase the facilities qualifying for automatic authorization ; offering blanket certificates for construction or acquisition of portable compressor stations to enhance pipeline capacity to california ; and offering rate incentives to expedite construction of projects that will make additional capacity available this summer on constrained pipeline systems . hydroelectric power ferc staff will hold a conference to discuss methods to address environmental protection at hydro projects while allowing increased generation . requests comments on ways to allow for greater operating flexibility at commission - licensed hydro projects while protecting environmental resources . comments should consider : 1 ) methods for agency involvement ; 2 ) ways to handle and expedite endangered species act consultations ; 3 ) criteria for modifying licenses ; and 4 ) identification of processes that could be implemented to provide efficiency upgrades . oil pipelines ferc will explore with oil pipelines innovative proposals that could lead to ensuring an adequate flow of petroleum product into the california market . conference with state commissioners ferc will hold a one - day conference with state commissioners and other state representatives from western states to discuss price volatility in the west as well as other ferc - related issues identified by the governors of western states . by notice issued march 16 , this meeting is scheduled for april 6 , 2001 in boise , idaho .

"" these are very large operations and to some extent they can bear some risks , "" says pawel kaminski , energy - sector operations officer at the world bank in warsaw . "" but eventually they have to generate some return . "" enron pioneered wholesale gas and electricity trading in the u . s . it entered europe in 1989 , setting up in london as the u . k . ' s energy sector liberalized . it entered the nordic market in 1996 , and today is the nord pool ' s largest - volume trader . enron says it takes about two years to find a site and obtain permits for a power plant , and a further 29 months for construction . just four years after entering the u . k . , enron finished its 1 , 875 - megawatt teesside plant . teesside ' s capacity and cost , at gbp 795 million ( 1 . 32 billion euros ) , are many times larger than nowa sarzyna ' s . yet teesside was completed in only two - thirds the time . the company declines to compare development times in various countries . "" i wouldn ' t necessarily put poland into the same category as russia , "" says philip davies , regulatory and government - affairs manager at enron europe in london . "" but obviously , given poland ' s ( planned economy ) past , it probably takes a bit longer to work through the regulatory process and get to the starting point . "" at nowa sarzyna , it took enron nearly twice the usual time to reach the starting point , even though mr . astramowicz already knew the site , and the polish power industry ' s rules . the nowa sarzyna plant was mr . astramowicz ' s brainchild , and he burned out the engine in his first bmw as he traveled between warsaw and the town to craft the deal . a freelance energy - sector entrepreneur before joining enron , mr . astramowicz sold his interest in nowa sarzyna to enron in 1998 . enron has spent $ 132 million to build nowa sarzyna , a 116 - megawatt , gas - fired combined heat - and - power plant . quiet , clean and efficient , the plant stands in stark contrast to most of poland ' s belching , coal - fired behemoths . when it starts up this month , it will sell its electricity to the polish power grid , the country ' s high - voltage network , under a 20 - year power - purchase agreement , or ppa , that enron won in 1997 . steam output goes to organika , the chemical company next door , and helps heat the town of nowa sarzyna . the nowa sarzyna plant is more than 80 % financed by commercial - bank loans for which the only collateral is the plant ' s concluded contracts . "" they were betting on their good name , "" says michael davies , a partner with allen & overy , the warsaw law firm that advised enron poland ' s lenders . "" they are pushing envelopes all the time . "" that is especially true in a market with 30 % overcapacity , where an energy law didn ' t even exist until 1997 . says peter bisztyga , emerging europe utilities analyst at solomon smith barney in london : "" because enron signed a ppa , they are ok . . . ( but ) i ' m really not sure building nowa sarzyna was such a good idea . "" mr . bisztyga says enron could have generated a faster return by renovating an existing power plant . but , he acknowledges , nowa sarzyna "" allowed enron to get into the polish market early and stamp their name on it . "" in 1994 , polish power plants weren ' t for sale . energy asset privatization , discussed for years , began in earnest only this year . by 2002 , the polish government proposes to sell off stakes in dozens of power plants , 33 distribution companies and the polish power grid , a 12 , 000 - kilometer national transmission network of high - voltage lines . the assets have a total book value of 33 billion zlotys ( 8 . 4 billion euros ) , but murky regulations have driven prices down . "" the regulations don ' t promote competition and so you don ' t really know the price of electricity , "" says bengt wegemo , president of vattenfall poland . earlier this year , vattenfall paid $ 235 million for 55 % in warsaw - based elektrocieplownie warszawskie , promising $ 340 million in investment in the heat - and - power plant over the next 10 years . investors hope the new power market will bring clarity over pricing . ultimately , 170 licensed energy traders and 200 large power users will trade on the bourse , setting the wholesale price of electricity . the polish bourse will be modeled on its nordic counterpart . enron , the nord pool ' s largest trader , hopes to post polish trading profits by 2001 . but first , say market experts , poland ' s 1997 energy law must be amended to ease functioning of the bourse , and free up access to poland ' s distribution network . further , the government says it must solve the competition problem posed by the polish power grid ' s power - purchase agreements , which account for 70 % of energy sales in poland . some state - owned plants used the agreements as collateral to secure modernization financing . when prices are freed , these plants might go bankrupt if forced to compete with plants that didn ' t spend money to modernize . the government is contemplating a special fund to compensate the modernized plants for their extra costs . though nowa sarzyna is a private plant , the price enron must charge for its power is about twice what outmoded plants charge . "" we are hoping that continuous , efficient operation of the plant will generate us a ( bigger ) profit , "" mr . astramowicz says . another problem is cross - border power trading , where contradictory legislation essentially gives a monopoly to the polish power grid , also known as pse . enron and others protest that pse shouldn ' t compete with electricity - market participants who contract with it for transmission service . pse intends to stay in the trading business , says marek zerka , pse ' s vice president . in late march , pse and local company kulczyk holding signed an agreement with preussenelektra ag of germany to export electricity and coal to eu countries via germany . "" this is great news , "" mr . astramowicz says . "" if this joint venture gets access to pse ' s cross - border transmission capacity . . . i would expect pse to confirm open access to all market participants . "" enron and others are pushing hard for that access . "" as soon as the market becomes open , free and non - discriminatory , we will come out at a decent profit , "" mr . astramowicz says . folder name : enron in europe relevance score on scale of 100 : 78 to review or revise your folder , visit http : / / www . djinteractive . com or contact dow jones customer service by e - mail at custom . news @ bis . dowjones . com or by phone at 800 - 369 - 7466 .

"Subject: re : pre - submitted question on espeak erin , a book by martha amram and nalin kulatilaka is an excellent non - technical introduction to real options and it contains all the most important references to more advanced books and papers . the book has an endorsement by jeff skilling on the cover page . the research group offered several one - day seminars on real options and applications to the energy industry . we still have a few binders with the presentation materials available if you are interested . we plan to repeat the seminar sometimes in the fall . the first part of the seminar ( about 4 hours in the morning ) covers general concept of real options and their applicability to the energy business . the second , more technical afternoon session , covers stochastic processes used to model price uncertainty in the energy markets and specific case studies ( valuation of natural gas storage facilities and of peaking gas - fired power plants ) . the real options approach has been developed specifically to address the problem of making investment decisions under uncertainty . nobody in this field claims that this is a perfect tool , but it represents a significant progress compared to other techniques developed earlier . discounted cash flow analysis that tries to incorporate uncertainty through analysis of several , in most cases , arbitrary scenarios ( most likely , optimistic , pessimistic ) . these scenarios don ' t identify explicitly the risk drivers and don ' t specify the future proactive management decisions . the real , option approach is very powerful because it allows to ( 1 ) capture uncertainty in an explicit way and ( 2 ) to design investment projects that allow to exploit future positive developments and reduce future exposures to downside risk . this approach allows also create a link between investment decisions and future operational decisions . forward - looking investment decisions create options that are exercised in the future through active management of a project . the real options technology relies heavily on advanced statistical tools to come up with the representation of future possible states of the world . the real challenge is to use these tools in a sensible way . i have seen in my career ( almost 30 years of applying mathematical tools to business and economic problems ) many quants armed with powerful computers who reminded me of monkeys armed with hammers . the challenge is not to run mechanically thousands of simulations based on arbitrary assumptions but to translate in a creative way the insights of people who understand specific businesses into parsimonious quantitative models . it is especially critical to stress - test the assumptions of any model and to ask the question if the outcome of a model depends critically on any set of assumptions . if this is the case one should use common sense to examine the underlying assumptions . i remember that in the early eighties quite a few models simulated the dynamics of oil prices , but all the stochastic scenarios represented fluctuations around a very optimistic upward trend . one would have been better off stepping back and asking a simple question what economics 101 teaches about cartels and the dynamics of supply and demand . enron north america corp . from : erin rice @ enron 06 / 27 / 2000 03 : 52 pm to : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect cc : subject : pre - submitted question on espeak good news ! there is already a question waiting for your july 12 espeak session . i have pasted it below , although you don ' t have to respond until the actual event . don ' t forget to send a bulleted list of discussion topics if you would still like us to advertise the event on the elevator screens . thanks . - er submitted by breineck i was doing some reading about the application of real options in the evaluation of non - financial assets . would you recommend any texts or articles for a more in - depth study of this area ? is quantification of risk or uncertainty the major challenge in using this concept ? can statistical tools be used with this to do a sort of sensitivity analysis ?",0

"Subject: f / up sheila , i am forwarding you a message i received a few days ago . i want to ask you for advice how to handle this case . my first reaction was to ignore it . the longer i think about it , the more convinced i become that some action is required . let ' s try to reverse the situation and assume for the sake of argument that a female employee was harassed by a male colleague . an employee informs her boss a few months later about the alleged incident and the boss chooses to ignore it . in many similar cases , courts subsequently found against the companies that decided to turn a blind eye to such complaints . the fact that we are dealing with the case of reverse harassment is immaterial . if i ignore this complaint i may expose the company to charges of double standard in handling sexual harassment cases . my recommendation would be to ask maureen to attend sensitivity training and sexual harassment prevention class . please , let me know what you think . sorry to burden you with this case . vince - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - forwarded by vince j kaminski / hou / ect on 12 / 29 / 2000 11 : 01 am - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - clayton vernon @ enron 12 / 21 / 2000 03 : 51 pm to : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect cc : subject : f / up vince - i got your message ( i was up on the roof of the building helping to fix the weather satellite dish - what a gorgeous view of houston ! ) . i appreciate your words . everything remains fine , vince . you are my "" father "" here at enron , and i admire and respect you greatly . i think i know the kind of person you are , in terms of your integrity , and i admire the high standards you set for all of us in your extended "" group .

"Subject: california update 4 / 27 / 01 the following report contains confidential and sensitive information . please treat with discretion . executive summary : ? ferc price cap decision reflects bush political and economic objectives . politically , bush is determined to let the crisis blame fall on davis ; from an economic perspective , he is unwilling to create disincentives for new power generation ? davis finds four major flaws with ferc plan , most notably its exclusion of out - of - state generators ? june lst "" kill clause "" for ferc order could coincide with new bush regional plan ? california facing growing fiscal risk following bond downgrade , expected $ 20 billion power bill this summer - - economic crisis would force deeper administration involvement ? qf bid for advance payments from pg & e likely to fail in bankruptcy court ? new generation delays probable because of state / qf squabbling ? consumer groups are preparing a constitutional challenge to socal bailout deal 1 . ferc fallout the ferc decision is a holding move by the bush administration that looks like action , but is not . rather , it allows the situation in california to continue to develop virtually unabated . the political strategy appears to allow the situation to deteriorate to the point where davis cannot escape shouldering the blame . once they are politically inoculated , the administration can begin to look at regional solutions . moreover , the administration has already made explicit ( and will certainly restate in the forthcoming cheney commission report ) its opposition to stronger price caps on the grounds that they are unwilling to create disincentives to the construction of new generation . it is interesting and ironic to note that electricity generators were generally happy with the ferc order and that the only ferc commissioner who favors price caps actually voted against this plan . 2 . something less than effective price caps from davis ' s point of view , the ferc plan has four major flaws : ? the order applies only to california , not to the rest of the west . non - california generators are not required to sell at capped rates to california . ? as the order is written , it is more of a price floor for emergency power than a ceiling . ? state officials also believe that energy suppliers will continue to game the system , because the price mitigation scheme only kicks in after a stage 2 emergency and does not require any collusion . ? even when the price caps kick in , they are based on the cost - plus for the highest cost producer supplying power to california and do not require wholesalers to abide by the cap . the generators can also charge above the cap , provided they can subsequently justify the excess charge to ferc . 3 . proposal "" kill clause "" adds to the political dilemma for davis the ferc proposal includes a "" kill clause "" that says the caps will be withdrawn unless california ' s iso agrees by june lst to become part of the regional grid now under ferc control . if davis doesn ' t sign on to the regional grid by june lst , then he will have to live with june 2 nd headlines blaming him for letting the "" bush price caps plan "" collapse . 4 . growing fiscal risk in california sources speculate that california could therefore pay as much as $ 20 billion on power this summer - this is more than the combined enterprise value of pg & e and sce . these sources believe that , because of the severity of the situation , the ferc and / or the federal government will be forced to take further action to control prices for power . the consensus is that the state of california will run out of money in about 90 days . one of the first projects to be cancelled will be state plans to finance new power plant construction in exchange for long - term power deals . the bleak fiscal picture is also causing bank creditors to revisit the bridge loans they are providing to california . the bush administration and the fed are only now waking up to the seriousness of the fiscal picture . the country ' s largest and most prosperous state will have gone from large surpluses to serious debt downgrades and devastating deficits in a matter of months . 5 . qfs to seek advance payment from pg & e meanwhile , on the bankruptcy front , the qfs reportedly will ask the bankruptcy judge today to give them advance payment from pge ' s accounts , since their natural gas vendors have likewise demanded advance payment for gas . it appears very unlikely that the qfs ' request will be granted . if the qfs do not receive advance payment , it is likely that most of the 4 , 000 mw of gas - fired qf capacity will remain offline . 6 delays likely in new qf generation the qf deals made with the state for long - term contracts are being continually renegotiated , which is likely to mean that the new plants those contracts are supposed to finance will not be online as early as anticipated . 7 . consumer groups ready to challenge constitutionality of sce bailout plan harvey rosenfield and his colleagues reportedly have been reviewing an analysis of the mou for the sce bailout plan . the analysis was done by a utilities analyst , rather than a lawyer , though it appears to raise a number of good legal points . for example , one of the elements of the mou is a "" non - bypassable "" charge on ratepayers that would require them to pay even if they disconnect from the grid . this is effectively a tax , since there is no exchange of value for money , which under the ca constitution cannot be used to directly benefit a private entity . this makes the bonds that would be issued are general obligation bonds , rather than revenue bonds . according to the constitution , the state cannot be put into debt to benefit a private company . for this and other reasons , even if the republicans would vote for the sce bailout , which remains unlikely , the bailout probably would not stand a likely constitutional challenge . 8 . governor hurt by continued failure to disclose long - term power contracts the issue of the governor ' s failure to disclose the details of the long - term power contracts continues to distress the other players in the crisis . even if he were to disclose everything he and his staff have been negotiating , it is likely that their actions and negotiations will challenged , creating an even further delay .",0

"Subject: re : eprm article chris , this is very well written and will serve the reader well . a few comments . 1 . when i think about the taxonomy of the var models , i typically use the classification based on 3 categories : a . variance / covariance method b . historical simulation c . monte carlo simulation . delta approach is the way of representing a position in a nonlinear instrument . 2 . i would define monte carlo as an approach based on statistical simulation of behavior of all the market prices / rates , etc . , and revaluation of the entire portfolio . the revaluation may be based on an approximation ( using taylor ' s expansion ) that may involve delta , delta / gamma , delta / gamma / omega or may be exact ( based on the same model that produces the mark - to - market portfolio valuations ) . the main benefit of using the mc simulation in the energy markets is the ability to capture the gapping behavior of the energy markets in a straightforward way . i would emphasize that there are attempts to incorporate jumps in the v / c model ( i shall send you the references from home ) . 3 . i would mention that historical simulation may break down in the markets that are evolving quickly ( new instruments for which we have no comparable prices , behavior of prices may change as markets mature or de - mature ) . 4 . for bigger portfolios , virtually all methods require some level of aggregation into atomic , elemental instruments to reduce the dimensionality of the problem . this process may be a source of a big error . 5 . the computational burden of mc can be reduced through clever preprocessing of a portfolio that introduces no error . many swaps with the same underlying can be aggregated into one positions ( they are portfolios of forwards and they are linear instruments ) . please , feel free to use any comment ( or none ) . vince "" chris strickland "" on 08 / 28 / 2000 02 : 58 : 56 pm please respond to "" chris strickland "" to : cc : subject : eprm article dear vince , ? d you think you might be able to look at this in the next day or so ? robin is after something by the end of this week . ? best regards . ? chris . ? - eprm _ 01 _ var . doc",0

"Subject: resume of mark giancola attached is the resume of mark giancola . mark is the husband of penny pan , a uva business school student for whom i was mentor last summer . penny has received a permanent offer and is inclined to accept if her husband can find suitable employment in houston . as you will see from his resume , mark has worked as an economist in the public and private sectors for the past 2 . 5 years . mark is interested in a role where he can use his abilities to analyze political , credit currency and related risks . please let me know if you have any interest . thanks , rich john : is there a place here in enroncredit . com ? _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ penny mentioned that you might have some ideas about job opportunities in houston for someone with my background . as you know , penny was pleased to receive an offer from enron and i plan to earnestly look into the houston job market myself . the weeks leading up to the annual imf / world bank meetings are one of the busiest times of year for us , but now that they are over i have had a chance to update my resume ( attached ) . i would be grateful if you would take a look and pass it on to anyone you think might be interested . as you will see , most of my background is policy related , and most recently international economic policy . however the skills i have developed have applicability in the private sector as well . for example , a large part of my job at the treasury involves sovereign risk analysis . two possible avenues i see for building on this knowledge are : 1 ) applying my knowledge to decisions regarding allocation of global financial assets ; or 2 ) identifying risks facing a mutinational company and developing strategies to reduce that risk . i should mention that in addition to my economics training i do understand basic finance , and i am preparing to begin the cfa . i should also note that the work environment here at the treasury is quite fast paced , with constant deadlines and a great deal of pressure placed on economists . i tend to work 55 + hours per week so i do not expect i would need to adjust signifiantly if i were to move to the private sector . i greatly appreciate your taking the time to look at my resume and giving some thought to where i might look . i welcome any comments and ideas you might have . thanks , mark giancola p . s . the formatting on my resume seems to change whenever i e - mail it ; let me know if you prefer that i fax it to you . - resume 8 . doc",0

"Subject: re : real options presentation thanks for the comments grant . the presentation is for a couple of external conferences that vince volunteered me for - vince has ok ' d the content , and stinson raised exactly the same issues as you . unfortunately i just don ' t seem to be getting any response from risk whatsoever on the publication of my article , so these conferences will be the public debut for my real options notation . of course the discounting / risk neutrality thing is where the real judgement sits . when questions arise i ' ll take the line that while research formulates the models using appropriate derivatives / market based valuation methods , we work with our rac group which considers the discounting to be associated with various risks , and chooses these rates appropriately . the notation makes clear which uncertainties we are exposed to at different stages of the deals , which assists in choosing the rates . in practice i ' m not yet at the stage where originators are using my notation yet - another reason i can ' t say too much about its actual use at the conference . i ' m producing various tools for deterministic hydro optimization , gbm swing option valuation , and deterministic dp optimization for genset dispatch which people want right now - i ' m working in the background on the kind of modelling my notation demands . people are getting to know me as a guy who can solve their immediate problems , and they ' ll be more likely to listen when i start rolling out the "" proper "" options - based models . my notation is currently used only in the specs i ' m writing for the tools i ' m producing . i ' ll be turning dale ' s spreadsheet - based power plant spread model into an american monte carlo tool , which will then be available for inclusion in other models . i think by the end of the summer the real options theoretical work will start to bear fruit , one year after i initially proposed the notation . with the quant it group i ' m co - creating in place , i may yet see the automated diagramming / pricing tool made real . thanks also for the pointer to tom halliburton . the use of the lingo lp / integer package is something i ' ve been presented with for the teesside plant operation optimizer , rather than something i chose . the perm ( physical energy risk mgt ) group just got a couple of analysts to hack it together ( including natasha danilochkina ) , then asked me to tidy it up when it didn ' t work . they are going to use their existing faulty model for now ( to meet their project deadlines ) , and i ' m sketching out a proper mathematical spec for the problem . i ' ve persuaded ( ! ) them that this sort of business - critical system should be developed properly by research , and they now seem happy to fall into line . their wilton plant optimizer was developed by one peter morawitz , the guy i hoped to recruit into research , and they obviously didn ' t realise he was better than average at quantitative modelling . anyway they now accept that doing it properly will take months rather than weeks , and i ' ll have a freer hand in my choice of modelling tool - so a chat with tom would be extremely valuable . cheers , steve enron capital is this an internal enron or external presentation ? if external , i would say it is just at the limit before sliding into proprietary stuff . perhaps that ' s why you ' ve neatly almost entirely avoided questions about discounting and risk - neutrality or lack of it ? regards , grant .",0

"Subject: hurricane warning derivatives folks , this note is intended to update all who may be concerned on our progress toward developing a commercial hurricane warning derivative product or line of products . it is clear that numerous entities have underlying exposures to hurricane warning frequency and / or duration . it is our objective to develop derivative products that will enable these entities to effectively hedge this exposure . we have generated a partial brainstorm - style list of whom natural counterparties might be according to their underlying exposure : pro - hurricane anti - hurricane the weather channel resorts home depot cruise ships lowes riverboat casinos cnn chemical plants and refineries local tv stations u . s armed forces dry ice manufacturers athletic teams chainsaw manufacturers city governments insect repellant manufacturers state governments it is obvious that there are numerous naturally offsetting parties but it is important to note that the pro - hurricane entities are more macro in nature while the anti - hurricane entities are typically more regional . thus , we have documented the frequency and duration data by regional location with the thought that the anti - hurricane entities would be interested in regional products and the pro - hurricane entities would likely be more interested in bundled regional products depending on their exposure . thus far , we have collected and documented all u . s hurricane warning data from 1980 - 2000 in the form of an excel database . the data can be sorted by year , storm , or location on the u . s coastline . total hurricane warning duration as well as number of discrete hurricane warnings are the primary data sets of interest for any given location ( or year or storm ) . the u . s coast has been divided into 11 different geographic regions of roughly similar size . these regions are : new england , mid - atlantic , virginia , north carolina , georgia / south carolina , east florida , west florida , florida panhandle , orleans / miss / bama , lousiana , and texas . while this data set may not yet be sufficient for price modeling purposes , it has confirmed our expectation that hurricane warning frequency and duration is quite volatile and unpredictable . it is believed that this volaility , when graphically depicted and mathematically represented , could be used to effectively demonstrate to would - be customers the impact of hurricane warning frequency on their business financials . in many cases , businesses may be well aware of their exposure but may not have quantified it and certainly probably felt as if this was a risk they would have to wear themselves . as we move forward on the modeling front , the data will certainly need to be scrutinized to correct for any skewing factors such as political trends , satellite availability , population trends , etc . additionally , we need to go further back in time so long as the accuracy doesn ' t decline . on the marketing front , i am certainly open to ideas . it is believed the weather channel would be the most natural party for such a product . given our positive relationship that we currently have with them , they might be the easiest sell . any and all ideas are welcome with regard to how and when we should approach customers . please respond with any questions , comments or concerns on this project . thanks , charlie",0

"Subject: data for moody ' s riskcalc craig and kim , as you know , i have obtained a 60 day trial subscription to moody ' s riskcalc . you wanted to know if it makes sense for enron to purchase riskcalc . well , after plowing through their 100 page manual and sitting through today ' s 2 - hour moody ' s presentation , it is necessary for us to have information about enron ' s counterparties to move to the next step with riskcalc . we have obtained some information on enron ' s european counterparties from our colleagues in the london office . we need for you and / or your colleagues in the houston office to supply us with a list of enron ' s north american counterparties . more specifically , to evaluate moody ' s riskcalc we will need the following financial inputs for enron ' s north american ( private firm ) counterparties : fiscal year the prior twelve months of financial data are represented . annual statements are usable as well as quarterly statements after summing the flow variables , such as cost of goods sold , net income , sales , and ebit . the value should be a four - digit integer year without mention of the day or month such as 1999 or 2000 . forecasts until the year 2009 can be made . a constant rate of inflation is applied to future years using last year ' s ( 1999 ) inflation level . in general this ' estimation error ' will not cause any great problems , as size affects default rates at very large scales ( e . g . , $ 10 , 000 , 000 vs . $ 1 , 000 , 000 makes a significant difference , $ 1 , 000 , 000 vs . $ 1 , 050 , 00 does not ) . cash & equivalents this measure of liquid assets includes cash and marketable securities . inventory inventories are taken directly from the balance sheet , in thousands dollars , without any alterations for accounting method ( e . g . , lifo , fifo , average cost ) . this item represents merchandise bought for resale and materials and supplies purchased for use in production of revenue . specifically this would include purchase cost , sales cost , sales taxes , transportation costs , insurance costs , and storage costs . current assets this item primarily represents cash , inventories , accounts receivables , marketable securities , and other current assets . total assets total assets and every other variable are entered in thousands of dollars . for example , $ 15 , 500 , 000 should be entered as 15500 . specifically , total assets are the sum of current assets plus net property , plant , and equipment plus other noncurrent assets ( including intangible assets , deferred items , and investments and advances ) . leave previous year ' s total assets blank for australian companies . current liabilities liabilities are positive values . included in current liabilities are short - term debt , accounts payable , and other current liabilities . total liabilities this balance sheet account , total liabilities , is a positive number representing the sum of current liabilities plus long - term debt plus other noncurrent liabilities ( including deferred taxes , investment tax credit , and minority interest ) . retained earnings retained earnings , a historical measure of performance , is the cumulative earnings of the company less total dividend distributions to shareholders . typically , it is the prior year ' s retained earnings plus net income less distributions . retained earnings are generally positive . some firms with low credit quality will have negative retained earnings . leave this field blank for australian companies . sales this item consists of the industry segment ' s gross sales ( the amount of actual billings to customers for regular sales completed during the period ) reduced by cash discounts , trade discounts , and returned sales and allowances for which credit is given to customers . cost of goods sold entered in thousands of dollars , this value is generally a positive number less than sales . it represents all costs directly allocated by the company to production , such as material , labor , and overhead . not fixed overhead or items that would be included in selling , general , and administrative expenses . leave this field blank for australian companies . ebit earning before interest expense is operating income after depreciation . it can be positive or negative but is usually greater then net income . interest expense this item represents the periodic expense to the company of securing short - and long - term debt . typically , we expect this charge to be approximately the prevailing interest rate times the total liabilities . one measure of computing this is : interest expense = 0 . 07 * total liabilities . net income this item represents the income ( or loss ) reported by a company after expenses and losses have been subtracted from all revenues and gains for the fiscal period including extraordinary items and discontinued operations . a loss is represented by a negative sign . for example , a $ 5 , 000 , 000 loss would be entered as -

( note that this is 3 days after their authority expires ) ferc will release its proposed order on 11 / 1 / 2000 based on the results of its 206 investigation of the california wholesale power markets . we don ' t know what they will find or what they will propose . the proposed order will have a 30 day comment period , after which ferc will likely issue a final order . ferc will be accepting oral comments on 11 / 9 / 2000 in washington . enron still has to determine who will provide oral comments . many companies have filed at ferc advocating or opposing a litany of price caps , cost based rates , and market redesign recommendations . it is likely that the price caps approved by the iso board will go into effect . how long they will remain in effect will depend on whether ferc extends the iso price cap authority and whether the final order stemming from the current 206 investigation stipulates a specific price cap policy . impact of price caps the attached spreadsheet contains a table of likely maximum monthly prices at different gas price levels . we think that this is the highest that markets would clear since it assumes that each hour clears at the cap . it is hard to say whether actual prices would clear significantly lower than the cap because we don ' t know whether sellers will offer below the cap or at the cap . the assumptions behind our analysis are detailed in the bullets below . take actual historical loads from 1999 and 2000 . calculate implied price cap for each hour using actual historical load , new price cap methodology , and a range of gas prices . divide historical hours into peak and off - peak buckets . calculate average price for each month for peak hours and off - peak hours . for example , we have two years worth of data for the months of january through september . each month has approximately 400 hours . for january through september , we took approximately 800 observations for each month ( 400 from each year ) and calculated a simple average of all of the individual observations . we created a peak table and an off - peak table . the table shows the calculated implied cap based off of the acutal loads at varying gas prices for each month . this value represents what the month would clear at if each hour cleared at the cap ( based on historic loads ) . while any given hour could be above this value , our calculation estimates the likely monthly average cap value ! the blue shading indicates what the caps would be given current ( 10 / 27 / 2000 nymex ) forward prices . the yellow shading indicates those forward power prices which are in excess of the proposed cap .",0

"Subject: jcc good morning . i apologize for the response delay . i ' ve gone back through the analysis that i did back in april , and have thrown around some ideas with vince and stinson . the issue may be summarized as follows . the hedge relationship was derived using jcc and prompt brent , and is valid for jcc and prompt brent . no problems here . however , it will not be valid for points far out on the forward curve . intuitively , this hedge relationship will approach one as we move far out on the curve , but since there is no data , i can not statistically determine this . one can imagine a term structure of heding ratios that start at 0 . 67 and move to 1 . 0 , so that the back end of the curves would move together , but how fast it converges to one is anyone ' s guess . if there is a way of determining the historical jcc forward curve , then the hedge relationships may be estimated . however , i have been unable to determine a rigorous approach to building the jcc curve . i can explain this far better in person , and would like to talk as soon as possible at your convenience . - kevin kindall",0

"Subject: you are now subscribed to the frbnyrmagl list mon , 18 sep 2000 18 : 42 : 47 your subscription to the frbnyrmagl list ( federal reserve bank of ny research publications ) has been accepted . please save this message for future reference , especially if this is the first time you are subscribing to an electronic mailing list . if you ever need to leave the list , you will find the necessary instructions below . perhaps more importantly , saving a copy of this message ( and of all future subscription notices from other mailing lists ) in a special mail folder will give you instant access to the list of mailing lists that you are subscribed to . this may prove very useful the next time you go on vacation and need to leave the lists temporarily so as not to fill up your mailbox while you are away ! you should also save the "" welcome messages "" from the list owners that you will occasionally receive after subscribing to a new list . to send a message to all the people currently subscribed to the list , just send mail to frbnyrmagl @ peach . ease . lsoft . com . this is called "" sending mail to the list , "" because you send mail to a single address and listserv makes copies for all the people who have subscribed . this address ( frbnyrmagl @ peach . ease . lsoft . com ) is also called the "" list address . "" you must never try to send any command to that address , as it would be distributed to all the people who have subscribed . all commands must be sent to the "" listserv address , "" listserv @ peach . ease . lsoft . com . it is very important to understand the difference between the two , but fortunately it is not complicated . the listserv address is like a fax number that connects you to a machine , whereas the list address is like a normal voice line connecting you to a person . if you make a mistake and dial the fax number when you wanted to talk to someone on the phone , you will quickly realize that you used the wrong number and call again . no harm will have been done . if on the other hand you accidentally make your fax call someone ' s voice line , the person receiving the call will be inconvenienced , especially if your fax then re - dials every 5 minutes . the fact that most people will eventually connect the fax machine to the voice line to allow the fax to go through and make the calls stop does not mean that you should continue to send faxes to the voice number . people would just get mad at you . it works pretty much the same way with mailing lists , with the difference that you are calling hundreds or thousands of people at the same time , and consequently you can expect a lot of people to get upset if you consistently send commands to the list address . you may leave the list at any time by sending a "" signoff frbnyrmagl "" command to listserv @ peach . ease . lsoft . com . you can also tell listserv how you want it to confirm the receipt of messages you send to the list . if you do not trust the system , send a "" set frbnyrmagl repro "" command and listserv will send you a copy of your own messages , so that you can see that the message was distributed and did not get damaged on the way . after a while you may find that this is getting annoying , especially if your mail program does not tell you that the message is from you when it informs you that new mail has arrived from frbnyrmagl . if you send a "" set frbnyrmagl ack norepro "" command , listserv will mail you a short acknowledgement instead , which will look different in your mailbox directory . with most mail programs you will know immediately that this is an acknowledgement you can read later . finally , you can turn off acknowledgements completely with "" set frbnyrmagl noack norepro "" . contributions sent to this list are automatically archived . you can get a list of the available archive files by sending an "" index frbnyrmagl "" command to listserv @ peach . ease . lsoft . com . you can then order these files with a "" get frbnyrmagl logxxxx "" command , or using listserv ' s database search facilities . send an "" info database "" command for more information on the latter . important : this list is confidential . you should not publicly mention its existence , or forward copies of information you have obtained from it to third parties . please note that the "" give "" command is automatically disabled for all archive files . more information on listserv commands can be found in the listserv reference card , which you can retrieve by sending an "" info refcard "" command to listserv @ peach . ease . lsoft . com .",0

"Subject: linux - - hit or miss ? network world fusion focus : phil hochmuth on linux today ' s focus : will linux be a hit or miss on the corporate desktop ? 03 / 15 / 00 dear wincenty kaminski , today ' s focus : will linux be a hit or miss on the corporate desktop ? by phil hochmuth so far this year , the buzz about linux in enterprise networks has focused on servers and embedded systems , with the growth of linux severs being most heralded . according to idc , a research firm based in framingham , mass . , linux was the fastest - growing server operating system last year , with a 93 % growth rate over the year before . linux was the second most - shipped operating system in 1999 after windows nt , capturing 24 % of new licenses shipped . as for the embedded market , linux has emerged as an ideal platform for network appliances , because the system can be modified to handle specialized , dedicated tasks very well . companies such as cobalt networks , picazo and progressive systems have announced linux - based appliances , ranging from web servers to pbxs to firewalls . but what of the open source hacker , s dream of & linux on every desktop ? 8 sure , linux on the desktop has become more accessible than ever , with colorful , shrink - wrapped boxes of caldera , red hat and corel linux now available at places like compusa . however , analysts have said that linux , s growth in the enterprise will be limited to the macro and micro areas of network servers and embedded operating systems . according to idc , linux currently runs on only 4 % of u . s . desktops . the hold microsoft windows has on the desktop market will remain strong , analysts say , despite such factors as microsoft , s antitrust problems and the surging popularity of linux . even some linux executives are skeptical of their product , s desktop future . recently , suse ceo roland dyroff downplayed linux , s future on desktops . dyroff said , & given the lack of applications available , we really can ' t claim it as being competitive on the desktop yet . 8 a recent survey by survey . com gives more hope for linux desktops . according to the survey of 1 , 640 enterprise network managers , open source operating systems are used on 10 % of desktops , with the number jumping to a surprising 23 % of enterprise desktops by 2002 . despite the mix of numbers being thrown around , two important factors that will determine the success of linux as an enterprise client desktop are : a standardized , easy - to - use graphical user interface ( gui ) and available applications . one company that is working to make linux more user friendly is palo alto - based eazel , which is designing a next - generation file management system and user interface to run on top of the linux kernel . according to eazel , s web site , the company , s goal is to bring linux to the masses and & do it in a way that appeals to today ' s linux users and to mere mortals . 8 the company was founded by a group of former apple executives , and is allied with the gnome project , which has been doing extensive linux desktop environment development for several years . eazel is due to have a product out by the middle of this year . with an intuitive , icon - based file management environment , eazel is hoping its user interface will be an improvement over the two current linux guis , gnome and kde , and will help standardized the look and feel of linux for & regular 8 users . for enterprise mangers who have already embraced linux on the server side , this development will be worth keeping an eye on . on the applications side , several office productivity suites have been available for some time , such as sun , s staroffice suite and koffice for the kde desktop . corel has also ported its office products , such as wordperfect , over to linux to complement its own distribution of the operating system . while there have been recent rumors ( started by linux care vice president arthur tyde ) that microsoft is working on a port of ms office to linux , microsoft officials deny this . while linux may never supplant windows as the industry - standard desktop , there should be plenty of opportunity for linux pcs in enterprise nets in the future . to contact phil hochmuth : - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - phil hochmuth is a writer and researcher for network world , and a former systems integrator . you can reach him at mailto : phochmut @ nww . com . for related links - - click here for network world ' s home page : http : / / www . nwfusion . com staroffice software from sun http : / / www . sun . com / staroffice corel linux os http : / / www . corel . com / freedom / freedom . htm eazel http : / / www . eazel . com gnome - - the gnu network object model environment http : / / www . gnome . org koffice - - the integrated office suite for kde , the k desktop environment http : / / koffice . kde . org / cobalt networks , inc . http : / / www . cobaltnetworks . com progressive systems http : / / www . progressive - systems . com picazo http : / / www . picazo . com other linux - related articles from network world : active directory upgrade requires strong game plan , network world , 03 / 13 / 00 subscription services to subscribe or unsubscribe to any network world e - mail newsletters , go to : to change your email address , go to : subscription questions ?

"Subject: re : working gas price model vince - i have a simplified version of brad ' s model in mind . the "" no arbitrage "" condition equates trading margins across the country . costs of transmission rise with congestion on the network . wellhead supply is almost completely price - elastic , while burner - tip demand is almost completely price inelastic . storage is rationalized as a perpetual call option . the least time - variant parameters are the costs of injecting and withdrawing gas from storage to the pipeline , followed by the costs of delivering gas from the wellhead to the pipeline . the intermediate - variant parameters are the capacity - dependent costs paid to the pipeline ( above shrinkage ) for transmission . the most time - variant parameters are the trading margins and the valuations of the storage option . there are 8 parameters to be estimated at each major node of the betwork . they are identifiable in either of two straightforward ways : using a short time series of the last 3 days prices based on the assumed variability mentioned above , or point - estimates ( "" calibrations "" ) using only today ' s data based on a node - based model of competition between pipelines where pipes with the same region of origination , albeit markedly different terminus , price versus capacity similarly , "" competing "" for outflows . i will write this up for you in scientific word and present it to you at your earliest convenience . clayton",0

"Subject: re : energy derivatives hi vince , hope all is well with you . i ' m looking forward to seeing you again next week and meeting with grant . can you guys do me favour ? i ' m sending out some sample chapters to the people who responded positively ( all of them ! ) to my request for some feedback on the book . chapter 1 has an ' overview ' of the book with just a couple of sentences on each chapter . could you please write a sentence or two for your chapter ? i ' m including what i have already written so that you can see the style . many thanks and best regards . chris . 2 overview of this book this book aims to provide an in - depth understanding of the pricing and risk management of energy derivatives . in the remainder of this chapter we give an overview of the fundamental principals needed to model and price energy assets , and which underlie the rest of the book . as well as introducing the techniques that underlie the black - scholes modelling framework we discuss the numerical techniques of trinomial trees and monte carlo simulation for derivative pricing which are used extensively later in the book . in chapter 2 we analyse spot energy prices . apart from describing empirical prices we propose a number of processes that can be used to model the prices . we look at the well - know process of gbm as well as mean reversion , stochastic volatility and jump processes , discussing each , and showing how they can be simulated and their parameters estimated . chapter 3 , written by vince kaminski and grant masson of enron capital and trade . chapter 4 examines forward curves in the energy markets . although such curves are well understood and straight forward in the world debt markets the difficulty of storage in many energy markets leads to less well defined curves . what we do in this chapter chapter 5 presents an overview of the common and not - so - common derivative structures in the energy markets and discusses their uses . examples of products analysed in this chapter include a variety of swaps , caps , floors and collars , as well as energy swaptions , compound options , asian ( or average rate ) options , barriers , lookbacks , and ladder options . chapter 6 investigates single and multi - factor models of the energy spot price and the pricing of some standard energy derivatives . closed form solutions for forward prices , forward volatilities , and european option prices are derived and presented for all the models in this chapter including a three factor stochastic convenience yield and interest rate model with jumps . chapter 7 shows how the prices of path dependent and american style options can be evaluated for the models in chapter 6 . simulation schemes are developed for the evaluation of european style options and applied to a variety of path dependent options . in order to price options which incorporate early exercise opportunities , a trinomial tree scheme is developed . this tree is built to be consistent with the observed forward curve and can be used to price exotic as well as standard american style options . chapter 8 develops a new methodology for valuing energy options based on modelling the market observed forward curve . the approach results in a multi - factor model that is able to capture realistically the evolution of a wide range of energy forward curves and where the user defined volatility structures can be of an extremely general form . closed - form solutions are developed for pricing standard european options and efficient monte carlo schemes for exotic options . the chapter finishes with a discussion of the valuation of american style options . chapter 9 focuses on the risk management of energy derivative positions . in this chapter we discuss the management of price risk for institutions that sell options or other derivatives to a client and who is then faced with the problem of managing the risk through time . we begin with delta hedging a portfolio containing derivatives and look at extensions to gamma hedging - using the models from chapters 5 and 7 . the general model of chapter 7 ideally suited to multi - factor hedging and this is also discussed . chapter 10 looks at the key risk - management concept of value at risk applied to portfolios containing energy derivative portfolios . after discussing the concept of the measure , we look at how the key inputs ( volatilities , covariances , correlations , etc ) can be estimated . we then compare the fours major methodologies for computing var ; delta , delta - gamma , historical simulation and monte - carlo simulation . finally , we look at testing the var estimates for various underlying energy market variables . finally , we finish with credit risk in energy markets in chapter 11 .",0

so how does this affect the limit breach ? strictly speaking , we are still over our uk power limit , but the limit was set when we were assuming no gas power correlation and therefore a higher portfolio var . a suggested way forward given the importance of the spread options to the uk gas and power books - can we allocate to the gas and power books a share of the reduction in portfolio var - ie [ reduction = portfolio var - sum ( power var + gas var ) ] ? also , if i understand your mail correctly , matrix 1 implies 55 % gas power correlation is consistent with our correlation curves , and this reduces total var by ol . 8 mm . efa slot correlations the issue of whether our existing efa to efa correlation matrix is correct is a separate issue . i don ' t understand where the matrix 2 efa to efa correlations come from , but i am happy for you to run some historical correlations from the forward curves ( use the first 2 years , i would suggest ) . our original matrix was based on historicals , but the analysis is worth doing again . your matrix 2 results certainly indicate how important these correlations are . closing thoughts friday ' s trading left us longer so i would not expect a limit breach on monday . we are still reviewing the shape of the long term curve , and i ' d like to wait until both simon hastings and i are back in the office ( monday week ) before finalising this . regards richard tanya tamarchenko 06 / 10 / 2000 22 : 59 to : oliver gaylard / lon / ect @ ect , richard lewis / lon / ect @ ect , james new / lon / ect @ ect , steven leppard / lon / ect @ ect , rudy dautel / hou / ect @ ect , kirstee hewitt / lon / ect @ ect , naveen andrews / corp / enron @ enron , david port / market risk / corp / enron @ enron , ted murphy / hou / ect @ ect cc : subject : re : var correlation scenarios everybody , oliver sent us the var number for different correlations for uk - power portfolio separately from uk - gas portfolio . first , if var is calculated accurately the correlation between power and gas curves should not affect var number for power and var number for gas , only the aggregate number will be affected . the changes you see are due to the fact that we use monte - carlo simulation method , which accuracy depends on the number of simulations . even if we don ' t change the correlations but use different realizations of random numbers , we get slightly different result from the model . so : to see the effect of using different correlations between gas and power we should look at the aggregate number . i calculated weighted correlations based on 2 curves i got from paul . as the weights along the term structure i used the product of price , position and volatility for each time bucket for gas and each of efa slots . the results are shown below : inserting these numbers into the original correlation matrix produced negatively definite correlation matrix , which brakes var engine . correlation matrix for any set of random variables is non - negative by definition , and remains non - negatively definite if calculated properly based on any historical data . here , according to our phone discussion , we started experimenting with correlations , assuming the same correlation for each efa slot and et elec versus gas . i am sending you the spreadsheet which summaries the results . in addition to the aggregate var numbers for the runs oliver did , you can see the var numbers based on correlation matrix 1 and matrix 2 . in matrix 1 the correlations across efa slots are identical to these in original matrix . i obtained this matrix by trial and error . matrix 2 is produces by naveen using finger ' s algorithm , it differs from original matrix across efa slots as well as in power versus gas correlations and gives higher var than matrix 1 does . concluding : we will look at the historical forward prices and try to calculate historical correlations from them . tanya . oliver gaylard 10 / 06 / 2000 01 : 50 pm to : richard lewis / lon / ect @ ect , james new / lon / ect @ ect , steven leppard / lon / ect @ ect , rudy dautel / hou / ect @ ect , kirstee hewitt / lon / ect @ ect , naveen andrews / corp / enron @ enron , tanya tamarchenko / hou / ect @ ect , david port / market risk / corp / enron @ enron cc : subject : var correlation scenarios the results were as follows when changing the gas / power correlations : correlation var -

"Subject: california update 5 / 22 / 01 please treat as confidential a source had a meeting today with california state treasurer phil angelides . here are the main points from their conversation 1 . anglelides certain that socal will go bankrupt corroborating our line over the past four months , anglelides stated with confidence that socal would go bankrupt and that "" he was surprised they hadn ' t already . "" he noted that the only reason they haven ' t yet is that "" they were too stupid to ring - fence the parent "" and that "" their two biggest equity holders were screaming not to do it . "" he added that the davis / socal mou is dead and that all the "" plan b ' s "" are "" speculative "" at best . he also thought that socal was being "" naive if they thought they would get a better deal from the legislature than from the bankruptcy court . "" 2 . bond issuance - $ 12 b not enough angelides conceded that a $ 12 b bond issue would not be enough to buy power for the summer and that the true costs would probably be $ 18 - 24 b . the only reason they didn ' t issue more is that angelides felt that "" $ 12 b was all the market could handle . "" the current game plan for bonds assumes an average peak price for power of $ 400 / mwh , which angelides said explains the difference between his estimates and the higher estimates from state comptroller ' s kathleen connell ' s office . 3 . new generator construction anglelides was explicit that the california public power authority ( authorized by the legislature last week ) will "" build plants and not stop until we [ california ] has a 10 - 15 % capacity cushion above expected demand . angelides expects the state to be "" 5 - 10 % short on power all summer .

is it the spot variance of the returns of the comparison investment ? * * this is a good point . i was thinking in terms of the average variance , but this may not be correct . actually , we know that this is just an approximation and we need to think about whether or not it is a good approximation . typically , firms tend to ignore issues relating to the duration of their project cash flows when they determine discount rate , which clearly does not make sense . this requires some additional thought . * * 4 . finally , our criterion is to subtract from the average pv the investment and also the risk capital . setting risk capital to zero , this model closely resembles the intuitive present value criterion and endogenously determines the discount rate . * * this is correct . my goal was to come up with something that was closely related to what you are already doing but which gives you some insight into how to define risk capital and the appropriate discount rate . there are a number of ways that we can refine and improve this procedure . what we need to first consider is whether or not the basic approach makes sense for the kind of projects that you are evaluating . * * gas field case to facilitate your thinking , we are providing a gas field example below . we invest x million dollars to buy and develop a gas field . a profile of expected production and variance of the production per year is available from the engineers at the beginning . production will be autocorrelated , as the profile will shift up or down based on the actual gas reserves being more or less than the estimated reserves . we assume the life of the field to be 10 years with no salvage value . there are fixed and variable operating costs . it might be useful for you to think about applying the framework to this problem . * * this problem is probably pretty straightforward because it is unlikely that the cash flows will be negative once the gas field is producing . hence , there is no need to be concerned about risk capital ( other than the x million dollars to buy and develop the property ) . to value the property assuming all - equity financing we calculate the value process of the developed project and compare its volatility to a comparison investment whose value process is observable ( e . g . , a traded mlp ) . the risk - adjusted return of the comparison investment would then be used to discount the cash flows of the gas field . please note that this procedure requires relatively strong assumptions and calculating the risk - adjusted return on the comparison investment is not necessarily straightforward . * * let me know when you would like to discuss this . * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * on another topic , is it possible for you to give me information about one case where enron bought or sold a base load power plant , where the purchaser financed the transaction with non - recourse debt . we would like the following information : 1 . the value of the power plant ( or purchase price ) 2 . the amount of debt financing and the terms of the debt contract . 3 . some information about the pricing of gas - power swaps and options . about a year ago i gave vince a paper which develops a pricing model for project debt . i don ' t think he thought that it could be implemented on the type of projects that enron finances . however , my coauthors would like to try applying the model for one case study . let me know when you want to discuss these issues . thanks , sheridan sheridan titman department of finance college of business administration university of texas austin , texas 78712 - 1179 512 - 232 - 2787 ( phone ) 512 - 471 - 5073 ( fax ) titman @ mail . utexas . edu",0

"Subject: lng by rail vince , i was thinking about the type of things you could be talking to jeff shankman about , in the dabhol lng context . it occurred to me that one way to collect on regas charges , and still find alternate cutomers for gas is through the railways . some time back , i had looked into the possiblility of transporting lng by train . apparently , technology exists wherein lng can be put into cryogenic containers that can be trucked as well as the same containers being loaded from trucks to train bogies . i believe this maybe a way to earn some monies with lng by developing just such a market in india for commercial customers . it is pertinent to note that the konkan rail line is just about 1 hr . 45 minutes from the dabhol plant . trucks from dabhol could carry lng to the rail line at guhagar from where it could travel up and down the west coast of india . if we target end - consumers directly , we could easily sell at retail type prices , and build in a large margin , even if the volumes disposed are relatively smaller . ( the alternative fuel for most of these establishments is diesel or naphtha which is highly priced , and mostly trucked along roads , increasing costs ) . the end aim is to keep income targets in india , so that the analysts do not have a field day with the stock . hence keeping activity up in india , and showing that solutions exist , will keep stock price buoyed . we could explore this idea if it appeals ! regards , sandeep .",0

"Subject: petrochem desk i had a chance to speak with christian lebroc this morning with regard to curve building for petrochemicals . as it turns out , christian left rac in april and joined the petrochem desk as a trader . previous efforts at construction of a forward curve by the group have focused on intuition or swags . unfortunately , the group had a rough p & l year with at least some of the blame directed toward the forward curve or lack thereof . when asked about the fundamentals group , christian indicated that they ' d only been around about 3 - 4 months and are not yet well - suited to curve building . john nowlan is indeed the head of the group . from a timing perspective , i told christian that it would probably take at least 6 - 8 weeks to develop a curve , especially considering the need to understand the key market drivers / fundamentals . as was suggested yesterday during our meeting , a strong relationship between petrochemicals and a nymex component ( e . g . , crude oil ) would provide a great beginning point - - we could then potentially strengthen / augment this relationship with other key factors ( e . g . , supply and demand terms ) borne out of our market research . nelson",0

"Subject: capital book to further the process of reaching the stated objectives of increasing enron america ' s velocity of capital and associated return on invested capital , we have decided to create a capital book . the capital book will have no profit target associated with it and will be managed by joe deffner . the purpose of creating this book is to ensure that all transactions within enron americas , with any form of capital requirement , are structured correctly and are allocated the appropriate cost of capital charge . the previous numbers used in the business plans at the beginning of this year will remain for all transactions in place and where we hold assets . therefore , on any assets currently held within each business area , the capital charge will remain at 15 % . internal ownership of these assets will be maintained by the originating business unit subject to the internal ownership policy outlined below . the cost of capital associated with all transactions in enron americas will be set by joe . this process is separate and apart from the current rac process for transactions which will continue unchanged . capital investments on balance sheet will continue to accrue a capital charge at the previously established rate of 15 % . transactions which are structured off credit will receive a pure market pass through of the actually incurred cost of capital as opposed to the previous 15 % across the board charge . transactions which are structured off balance sheet , but on credit will be priced based upon the financial impact on enron america ' s overall credit capacity . on transactions that deploy capital through the trading books , the capital book will take a finance reserve on each transaction , similar to the way the credit group takes a credit reserve . this finance reserve will be used specifically to fund the capital required for the transaction . as noted above , the capital book will have no budget and will essentially charge out to the origination and trading groups at actual cost . by sending market - based capital pricing signals internally , enron america ' s sources of capital and liquidity should be better optimized across the organization . questions regarding the capital book can be addressed to : joe deffner 853 - 7117 alan quaintance 345 - 7731",0

"Subject: status vasant - i hope you had a wonderful vacation back home , and are rested and recovered from the long flight back . i wanted to give you an update of the eol project , the gas model , and of my intentions here at enron . software ( in compiled c on the unix platform ) has been developed and debugged to listen to the eol trades , process them , book them , and file them away . in addition , software has been developed and debugged to mark these to market on a continual basis , and to store the entirety of open positions on eol in a dynamic matrix facilitating analysis . it has yet to get back with me on how the software can be informed of those trades ultimately rejected for credit purposes . these data files are stored in a format for reading by excel or by sas , for which i have written the data step program and basic tabulation routines elucidating the structure of the data . i am in the process of documenting all of this for you . with regards the gas model and its slow performance on the compaq , dell has agreed to loan me one of their competing machines to the compaq , to see if the performance issue of the lp is related to the compaq . i have been researching this issue with it here and with compaq and dell . the new machine will be here any day now ( no financial obligation to anyone ) , and i will be able to immediately ascertain whether the problem the model is having is compaq - specific . i am also in the process of documenting the gas model for you . i ' ve tried to do my best for you , vasant , but i have been frustrated by not only the death of my mother but some internal systems in it here . just the other day , sas could not open a full query of the eol database because there wasn ' t enough free space on the server ' s hard drive for the workfiles . in discussing some of these issues with some good friends of mine in power trading , people whom i have known for over 10 years , they indicated they were ubiquitous here . the power traders have similar pc ' s to my new one , and they have complained from day 1 that theirs are slower than their old ones . also , there remains a large frustration with the development of data warehouses ; during my brief tenure here it has gone through two differing proposals as to how to address this . when i have been told of tools available for real - time data harvesting , my requests for such have typically been met with "" well , we have it , but we haven ' t really tested it yet . "" an example is the weather : we still do not record to disk the hourly nws observations from the goes satellite . my interests here are to help enron to do well , because i will do well only if enron does well . these aren ' t empty words - my ira is 100 % invested in the enron stock fund . i believe my best contributions to enron will be in the areas of systems as well as modeling , and the difficulty working in the research group , in terms of systems development , is that , frankly , few people at enron seem to care what a researcher thinks about our systems . we aren ' t directly generating revenues for enron , and we aren ' t really their customers , except in our relatively small deparrtmental infrastructure expenses . as it happens , power trading posted an opening for a modeling and forecasting person , and i spoke with them and they asked me to take the job , reporting to george hopley . it is a wonderful opportunity for me , vasant , as they are interested in large system modelng of power grids as well as improving their traders ' access to real - time fundamentals data . i was completely candid with kevin presto regarding my shortcomings here in research - i told him you were disgusted with me because i repeatedly failed to meet time deadlines . they also understand i have yet to be at enron for 1 year , and thus may only bid on a job with your permission . we agree the move is good for enron ; we all work for enron , and your acquiescence to the move does not endorse it but merely permit it . they are comfortable with me - they have known me for years as a hard worker , honest and unpretensive . they have already ordered a state - of - the - art unix workstation and server for me , and they have told me they will commit whatever resources are necessary for me to be successful , including hiring an analyst to work for me . and , i have already been able to teach their analysts improved techniques for data harvesting and analysis i have learned here . so , i am requesting your permission to bid for this job opening . it would be a lateral move in position and salary , and i would commit to you to help you in any way possible in the future with regards the gas model or the eol database . i will continue to work on their improvement , and complete their documentation . as it happens , i am away on enron business in portland monday and tuesday , and will be back wednesday . i had wanted to talk face - to - face instead of by email , but enron business supercedes - i am on a team designing the data warehouse for floor trader support . clayton .",0

"Subject: california power 1 / 19 / 00 executive summary : sb - 7 x gives dept . of water and resources given legislative authority to undertake short - term power purchases with no price cap through feb . 2 nd new legislation ( ab - 1 x and sb - 6 x ) would seek ( 1 ) long - term contracts with 5 . 5 cent cap and ( 2 ) creation of california power and conservation financing authority the long - term contracts proposed in ab - 1 x are likely to be subject to significant amendment and renegotiation prior to the feb . 2 nd expiration of sb - 7 x . the authority proposed in sb - 6 x would have bond issuance powers to finance new generation capacity and conservation measures negotiations under way on using bond authority for a utility bailout - - utilities and state government split over debt obligations of utility parents state borrowing plans and power purchases create credit risks for state treasury ; socal edison misses more payments bush administration opposes price caps , but is supporting state efforts to split pg we believe he then could be willing to guarantee or issue bonds to deal with the rest . as one very senior california political leader explained , getting the utility holding companies to eat a substantial part of the debt they owe themselves is the key to solving the back debt problem without provoking widespread public outrage about a "" bailout "" of private price - gouging companies with taxpayer money . since 75 % of californians currently blame the utilities and the puc for this crisis ( and only 10 % blame davis ) , this is a crucial political stance for the governor . but , of course , absorbing anything like $ 6 billion in debt would be quite a shock to the seemingly healthy holding company and power - generating branches of the two utilities , and they began spreading the word that they were quite willing to accept bankruptcy . thus by mid - week , both sides had pushed themselves toward a resolution in federal bankruptcy court that would be a worst case solution for all sides : the country ' s economy would suffer from the resulting credit shock , the governor ' s political future would suffer from the electricity rate increases almost certain to be mandated by a bankruptcy judge , while most private sector legal authorities believe the utilities corporate holding structure would ultimately be breached during bankruptcy procedures and they would end up having to absorb some significant amount of the debt in the end . in addition , they would most likely face a state government determined to use state powers of condemnation to enter the power business in a major way . senator burton ' s sb 6 x legislation will strengthen those powers dramatically to make this point quite explicit . it would set up a "" california power and conservation financing authority , "" with the power to issue bonds and invoke eminent domain . it would finance new power plants , and "" consider the feasibility and public interest of the state acquiring , operating , and maintaining transmission facilities currently owned by investor - owned and municipal utilities . "" as we write this , all sides are trying to construct a path back down from the bankruptcy ledge to safe ground , and there is no question the tone has shifted in the last 24 hours from macho confrontation to "" maybe we ' ve run this thing out as far as we can . "" but as we have noted , the chance for miscalculation is still quite high . there is no solution agreed to at this time , the stand - off over how much debt the state government will absorb versus the utilities ' holding company is continuing , and the technical fact of default still makes it possible for some bank to trigger bankruptcy by demanding immediate accelerated payment . 5 . default update - thursday socal edison - $ 215 million default to california power exchange . after edison failed to make a $ 215 m electricity payment yesterday , the california power authority began seizing long - term contacts and reselling them to recoup some of the money owed to generators . pg & e said it expects its trading privileges at the cal . power authority to be suspended today , leaving them with only its generation from nuclear and hydroelectric sources . while the ongoing wave of defaults has severely restricted pg & e ' s and socal ' s ability to buy power , the department of water and resources will be able to pick up some of the slack , at least in the very short - term . the state itself may be getting into risky credit territory . the proposed california public power authority would borrow in the neighborhood of $ 1 . 3 billion from the state general fund in advance of this year ' s expected fiscal surplus , with the loan to be repaid by the authority from expected future revenues . with near - bankrupt utilities and a freeze on rate hikes , it is unclear where the revenues would come from . the amount borrowed and terms of repayment will be no doubt examined very carefully by the bond rating agencies . 5 . bush policies as we reported on wednesday , the bush administration continues to demonstrate little interest in getting involved in the california crisis . president - elect bush surprised state leaders yesterday with his comments , which essentially said that excessive environmental regulation was the root of the current supply shortage . bush and his top officials appear to be unanimously opposed to long - term price caps . however , there is one issue of considerable importance to the administration , according to a source close to a top bush economic advisor . there is significant concern that pg & e ' s credit problems could cause gas suppliers to stop shipments of gas through pg & e ' s pipeline . the risk would be that the pipeline could "" go dry "" , causing significant and possibly dangerous disruptions in california residences and businesses . to prevent this problem , bush is working with davis on a proposal to split pg & e into separate gas and electric companies . the gas company would be solvent , but the electric company would go immediately into ch . 11 following significant defaults .",0

( b ) how enron is disciplining the internal decision making process with market . this is in many ways the critical aspect of real options that most finance people miss - - having options is one thing but exercising them and realizing their value is another . all of the incomplete contracting , asymmetric information , and incentive issues are ignored in real options valuation models . but they are real in practice . my impression is enron ' s real success is in putting place an organization that is able to mitigate these problems by imposing a market disciplining . ( c ) how enron manages the various books that involve physicals , financials , credit etc . this is specially important when many of the real assets have options features and therefore , include non - linear risk profiles . the story of gas is pretty well understood but not many of the others markets enron has been moving into over the last few years . on the gmii front , i think that some interesting opportunities arise when you think of the spectrum in a way similar to that of dark fiber . i am working with several people at lucent on this issue . i think it would be wonderful to engage in a conversation with enron and lucent folks in the room . i can do a lunch time talk on any of these issues . perhaps we can discuss some of these over a conference call . clearly , having vince kaminski in the room would be very important to me . as for schedules , the first 3 weeks of april are horrible . april 26 / 27 , may 3 / 4 are good for me . regards nalin at 06 : 56 pm 03 / 22 / 2001 , mack , iris wrote : > hi , > > as we briefly discussed , i spoke with one of my colleagues ( dr . > martin lin ) about your visiting enron to give a talk and to spend some > time with us to discuss you work in telecommunications , real options , > etc . > > martin and i are working on various broadband related problems . > > we thought it might be helpful if you let us know a bit more about > the following : > * when you want to come ( the research group has weekly > catered lunch on thursday and brown bag lunches on every other friday ) . > > * a description of what you want to talk about with respect > to telecoms , broadband , etc . > * who you would like to meet with me - vince kaminski ( our > boss ) , any other of our colleagues in research , broadband , etc . > . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . etc . > > > > > look forward to hearing from you . > > regards , > iris",0

"" he is well - deserving of an immediate promotion ( really more of a correction ) and pay raise , to be made retroactive at least to the lst of this month . this memo outlines the circumstances surrounding this hiring error and provides detailed justifications for this retroactive "" promotion . "" at the time of the interview process , there was no position in enron designated as "" professional meteorologist . "" in fact , the most recent similar hire prior to that date was jose marquez , also a professional meteorologist , who was hired in , based on salary alignment criteria , as a manager . while functionally , both these men are meteorologists , enron has no such job classification . compounded by the urgency in bringing on additional professional expertise in short time order , it was difficult to peg the proper enron classification appropriate for this new position . this original uncertainty and resulting misplacement of stephen into the specialist category , rather than the senior specialist category , needs to be corrected at this time . although a "" new - hire "" to enron , stephen bennett has extensive work experience . he has worked as a professional meteorologist at both the weather services corporation in boston and at the weather channel in atlanta . he came to enron well - referenced by both those organizations , needing no further training and only minimal supervision . once aboard here in houston , stephen immediately demonstrated the core enron values with our unique sense of urgency . after only a week , he assumed responsibilities normally reserved for someone actually at even a manager level - he was assigned and fully took over the critical afternoon weather briefings to the gas traders . this includes analysis and report preparation as well as presentation . also in the presentation arena , he now regularly briefs various desks in the morning and throughout the day . stephen is a master of communication and particularly adept at conveying what through other messengers might otherwise seem confusing or ambiguous . stephen has also demonstrated an unusually high level of self - initiative . he designed , implemented , and now maintains several sub - sites on the research web page which he tailored to various customers - in specific : the weather derivatives team , the agricultural team , and most recently , the crude and liquids team . i have recently assigned stephen to spearhead our conversion and major upgrade of this web page . these above described accomplishments are above and beyond stephen , s regular duties which include starting work at 5 am daily , reliably and without fail , to assemble and prepare our trader , s weather report . recently , with the advent of extended hours for both nymex and enrononline , stephen voluntarily on his own accord , assists in our new sunday weather support effort . as his supervisor , fully cognizant of his already standard 50 + hour work week , i do not solicit , but readily accept , this above and beyond expectations assistance . in review , the circumstance which resulted in this under hire condition was enron , s immediate need for a non - standard , fairly unique professional - a meteorologist , coupled with stephen , s desire to work for our company in spite of the absence of a hierarchy which included the exact entitled professional title reflecting his chosen career path . . once hired , stephen has clearly demonstrated through contribution and performance that he is well - deserving of this immediate and retroactive promotion .",0

"Subject: re : seeking opportunity in computational finance dear vince : thanks for your response . i am not a programmer , nor a "" quant "" . i am an expert in excel and otherwise have advanced skills in the remaining msoffice suite . beyond that i have extensive experience working with research and computer progamming personnel on projects from networks to databases , and in particular , automation . for instance , the first generation of the risk analytics system that i designed for quantlab was done in excel . in subsequent generations of the system , excel served only as the gui - given its extreme flexibility - and a sql database operated underneath ( compaq servers , raid array ) , integrating real - time operations for all components of the system . the research team at quantlab used many leading edge modelling methodologies , such as genetic algorithms , neural networks , principal component analysis , kernel density estimation , fast kernel regression , hidden markov modelling and many other pattern recognition , walk - forward back testing , and other simulation techniques . i was the sole individual on a team of 17 that had any practical trading experience , and therefore , felt that i played a critical role in the application and implementation of each of the system components from data mining to research to signal generation to execution . beyond that , i was uniquely qualified to articulate the project ' s mission to investors , and therefore , was highly successful in spearheading support - financial and otherwise - from our network . althought i did not ask specifically , i surmise from your question that you are leading a research effort . i believe that my skill set is best served as a liaison between research and trading , since i speak both languages . i believe that i possess great vision and enthusiasim that could be leveraged in a group , project or product management role to integrate and streamline diverse systems and processes ; a common scenario in most proprietary development settings today . in closing , i would like to learn more about enron and the financial technology effort therein through further discussion with you , or if that is not appropriate , someone to whom you would be comfortable referring me . i look forward to your thoughts . best regards , paul - - - - - original message - - - - - from : vince . j . kaminski @ enron . com [ mailto : vince . j . kaminski @ enron . com ] sent : tuesday , november 14 , 2000 4 : 30 pm to : epr @ pipeline . com subject : re : seeking opportunity in computational finance paul , can you give me more information about your computer skills ? my group is very hands - on oriented and computer programming is a critical skill . vince "" paul rowady "" on 11 / 14 / 2000 04 : 09 : 43 pm to : "" vince kaminski "" cc : subject : seeking opportunity in computational finance dear vince : in following up on my voicemail message today , i attach my resume below for your review and consideration . it ' s ironic that you called while i was putting the message together . i will keep it short and look forward to speaking to you at your convenience . best regards , paul e . paul rowady , jr . 2300 west alabama , suite 69 houston , texas 77098 713 - 807 - 8624 home / fax 713 - 539 - 4541 mobile epr @ pipeline . com ( see attached file : paul rowady 2 . doc )",0

"Subject: precious metals var jason , after our brief discussion last night i think i should discuss a few of the issues i have with respect to calculating a var on the deal that you are proposing . the var model , as i illustrated , is set up to accept a term structure of delta positions , prices and vols and it may be difficult to translate the ' silver mine ' position into these inputs . i do not think that we can simply take the net silver content of the mine and then make some assumptions about vol and price . the var model also assumes a certain amount of liquidity in the market and a 1 day holding period . to do this properly i would need to understand fully how the deal is priced as these sensitivities are ultimately what will effect the change in mtm in the future and that is essentially what var is supposed to predict . if you need me to work on this then you need to contact steve who will help to prioritise my time . i will also need to consult with vince kaminski and tanya tamarachenko in houston for advice . rac will also assist in the process . please contact me if you have any further questions , kirstee x 34529",0

"Subject: fw : london work hi , how are you ? london seems to be the same as when i left in august - no sun , cold , serious looking people , expensive , etc . in addition , we have had may day riots , a post office bombing , train strike , etc . not to mention all the excitement in enron credit . it would be nice to know who i am supposed to be reporting to . i am getting loads of conflicting messages - as illustrated in the forwarded email from vasant . according to you and slava , the strategy paper / duffie report seems to be a higher priority . however , vasant seems to indicate ( in his forwarded email ) that this is not the priority at the moment . in addition , there seems to be lots of chaos in enron credit - not only in the houston office , but even more so in the london office . this brings to mind a russian proverb i learned from slava when he expressed his views on the current state of enron credit - "" a fish rots from the head . "" finally , i would like to know exactly what you want me to write in this duffie report : do you want to hear what enron credit would like to hear - that all they need is for us to develop a private firm model for their exisiting "" infrastructure "" ? or do you want to hear what i really see , hear , read , etc . ? if the latter is true , then i may need to write two reports , because what i am learning does not look too good and would probably not make the enron credit personnel too happy . well , i think i have said enough for now . look forward to your feedback . thanks , iris - - - - - original message - - - - - from : shanbhogue , vasant sent : friday , may 04 , 2001 3 : 39 pm to : mack , iris cc : dhar , amitava subject : london work hi iris , amitava must have told you that both he and i are getting swamped with work here . as a result , we expect you to take the lead in scoping the enron credit project and making sure the infrastructure is readied . you should also make sure to understand the econometric / data analysis software side of the project - - this is probably more important than preparing a document for duffie right now . you should definitely sit with ben / george and actually run the software with them to get a feel for how it is to be used . but we also need to be able to try out potential other ways of analyzing data . both amitava and i will help as best as we can , and answer any direct questions , but we will have limited time to review documents , etc . i expect amitava to get heavily involved once data starts coming , but we expect you to have already set up the infrastructure etc for the data . hope the trip is going well . would you be extending the trip for some more time ? vasant",0

"Subject: organization announcement enron purchases billions of dollars of products through its wholly owned subsidiaries and venture companies worldwide . historically , the company has conducted these purchases in a highly fragmented , decentralized manner allowing each of the operating units the discretion to source their requirements in a manner that optimizes unit performance . today , however , with the implementation of sap and the profound explosion in internet / intranet - based technologies , we believe the company should change its direction and focus on aggregating its demand for goods and strategically sourcing these requirements on a global basis . we believe that there are significant cash savings to be extracted by the company and also commercial potential for the formation of a highly profitable , business - to - business e - commerce venture . effective february 1 , 2000 , enron will form a new global strategic sourcing unit . this new unit will consolidate the current successful strategic sourcing initiatives underway in the gas pipeline group , global asset operations and enron corp . initially , global strategic sourcing will focus on aggregating enron , s internal , joint venture and business partner demand for products and services with the objective of creating a future business - to - business e - commerce venture . it gives us great pleasure to announce that george wasaff , managing director , will lead this new global initiative . george will report directly to mike mcconnell , chief executive officer for global technology . george has been with enron for fourteen years and has held many senior executive positions , the most recent of which was managing director of enron south america ' s wholesale operations . george was also the interim chief executive officer of elektro from july 1998 through june 1999 and chief executive officer of transportadora de gas del sur s . a . ( "" tgs "" ) from june 1995 through february 1998 . george has also held numerous commercial positions including vice president and country manager , mexico for enron international and vice president of marketing for transwestern pipeline company . please join us in supporting this new global initiative and congratulating george in his new role with the company .",0
"Subject: eol wti historical trade simulation - more profitable trading strategy please ignor my previous mail regarding the same issue , which contains some typos . greg and john , i found that by reducing the volume per trade and increasing daily number of trades ( keeping the total volume per day constant ) , we can be more profitable . this is partially because in a trending market we lose less money by following the market more closely . for example , suppose market move from $ 30 to $ 35 . if per trade volume is 10 , 000 bbl and the half bid - offer spread is $ 1 for simplicity , we take 5 trades of short positions , the total mtm for that day is ( - 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 1 ) * 10 , 000 = - $ 150 , 000 and total trading volume is 50 , 000 bbl short . if per trade volume is 50 , 000 bbl , we take one trade , the total mtm is - 5 * 50 , 000 = - $ 250 , 000 . thus the net difference between the two trading strategies is $ 10 , 000 for that particular day . therefore it seems that by reducing per trade volume and increasing the number of trades , we can be more profitable as a market maker . i rerun a scenario that stinson sent to you on dec . 27 where he used per trade volume of 30 , 000 bbl . i reduce the number of trade to 10 , 000 while increasing the number of trades by factor of 3 . almost in all cases , i saw increased profitability . see the colume marked "" change "" for dollar amount change in millions . please let stinson or me know your thoughts on this . regards , zimin lu x 36388 as compared to",0

"Subject: var david , during today ' s var coordination meeting we had a discussion of issues related to mapping of the forward price curves into core locations . mapping is a necessity dictated by the limitations of the computer system : we have to reduce the dimensionality of the problem to stay within the bounds of available cpu memory . also , in some cases the quality of price discovery is poor and it ' s difficult to model the price curves independently : we solve the problem by mapping them into more liquid and better behaved core locations curves . we have agreed on the following : 1 . winston will investigate the it side and determine to what extent we can increase the number of forward price curves that are simulated as basic ( core ) curves . he will investigate the impact of a larger number of the core curves on the time required to complete the var run . 2 . the curves associated with the biggest 10 - 20 positions in each commodity should be modeled as core curves ( i . e . no mapping into other locations ) . it makes sense to monitor the biggest risks separately and avoid aggregating them into less transparent aggregates . 3 . the results of an automated clustering ( mapping ) procedures should be systematically monitored by a human and corrected if they misrepresent the risks of the trading positions . this responsibility should be vested with one person ( right now the responsibility is dispersed through the organization and this means in practice that nobody is responsible ) . research can allocate one person to this task ; cooperation of trading and rac will be critical . vince",0

"Subject: organizational changes to : enron north america corp . from : cliff baxter and kevin hannon in july , as part of the enron north america ( ena ) reorganization , the implementation of several objectives were highlighted as critical to the continued growth of ena including : 1 ) accelerate the development of our people , 2 ) significantly expand our customer network and associated markets , and 3 ) accelerate and enhance the information flow between groups , both within ena and across enron . consistent with these objectives and with the corporate goal of fostering b ) the downstream coverage / origination groups which focus on delivering a broad range of products and services to the heavy industrial customers including pulp and paper , chemicals , plastics , refined products , metals and mining , heavy manufacturing , industrial gases , fertilizers , transportation , textiles and glass manufacturing the eastern and western u . s . midstream coverage / origination groups which focus on energy , finance and industries . downstream coverage / origination as energy deregulation continues in north america , it is becoming clear that the heavy industrial segment will be an important customer market for both ena and enron corp . further , it is clear that ena can significantly expand its industrial customer network and create more innovative industrial solutions by having a group that can deploy all the capabilities of enron corp . against this backdrop , the downstream coverage / origination function will expand its product offering to include not only ena , s existing energy commodities , energy services , finance , assets and pulp and paper capabilities but also ees , s energy outsourcing capability and global fuel , s chemicals , plastics and refined products risk management capability . these additional capabilities will be offered in conjunction with ees and the global fuels groups . given the size and importance of this enron initiative , greg piper will be returning from portland to manage this business . under greg , s leadership , the downstream origination effort will be segmented into three sub - groups given the nature of these industries and our product offering : a ) pulp and paper ) edward ondarza will continue to manage the coverage activities in the pulp and paper business . this group will be responsible for the provision of innovative products and services in the pulp and paper industry including the provision of paper risk management products ; b ) chemicals , plastics and refined products ) we have asked jim ajello to lead the coverage activities in this business . this group will be responsible for the provision of innovative products and services in the chemicals and refined products industries ; c ) non - integrated industrials ) bruce garner , formerly leader of bankers trust , s global metals and mining group in london , has joined ena to lead the coverage activities in this business . this group will be responsible for the provision of innovative products and services for the metals and mining , heavy manufacturing , industrial gases , fertilizers , transportation , textiles and glass manufacturing industries . midstream coverage / origination a ) eastern coverage / origination ) this group , activities will focus on energy , finance and power development solutions for electric and gas utilities , municipals , co - ops and energy service companies in the eastern interconnect . we have asked janet dietrich to assume the leadership of this group ; b ) western coverage / origination ) this group , s activities will focus on energy , finance and power development solutions for electric and gas utilities , municipals , co - ops and energy service companies in the wscc . they will also continue to manage all qualified facilities ( qf ) restructuring opportunities in the western u . s . we have asked chris calger to assume the leadership of this coverage group . chris will relocate to portland from calgary where he currently leads the canadian downstream origination efforts ; c ) ipp merchant coverage / origination ) this group , s activities will focus on the provision of structured energy , finance and asset solutions for the emerging merchant power generators who control large portfolio , s of merchant power generation either through development or acquisition . we have asked mike miller to assume the leadership of this group . in addition , mike will continue to manage the power development activities in the eastern interconnect ; d ) eastern qf restructuring ) this group will focus on the qf restructuring opportunities in the eastern interconnect including the existing restructuring and re - capitalization of the east coast power assets . we have asked dave duran to assume the leadership of this business . greg blair , formerly of enron asia , s development group , doug clifford , formerly of citizens power , and dick lydecker , formerly of cogen technology , will join this newly formed business . 2 ) commercial transactions : the commercial transactions group ( ctg ) , co - headed by ray bowen and jeff donahue , was formed to provide a centralized resource for the execution of transactions within ena ) and thereby , improve ena , s efficiency in executing transactions and free - up the origination groups to increase their intensity of client coverage . ctg consists of six primary functions : transaction development , capital structuring and portfolio management , commodity structuring and transportation , transactional support / accounting , technical analysis and upstream asset management . the transaction development group will be responsible for deal leadership , execution and optimization of all aspects of a transaction in conjunction with the originator . the function will be divided into four teams , each of which will be dedicated to between two and four origination groups . this dedication to specific groups should provide a closer link , better service and greater accountability with the origination groups ; however , the ctg resources are designed to be a fungible and flexible resource allocated to the highest value transactions across the coverage functions : a ) midstream transaction development will be dedicated to the eastern and western coverage / origination groups . the senior members of this group include billy lemmons , george mccormick , erin norris and russ porter . billy lemmons joined enron in 1992 . most recently , he was the vice - president of capital structuring and risk management for ees . russ porter joins us today from dynegy where he was a manager with responsibilities for power origination . b ) downstream transaction development will be dedicated to ena , s industrial origination efforts in pulp and paper , petrochemicals and refining , environmental energy , metals and mining and other industries as coverage is established . the senior members of this team include rodney malcolm , jay boudreaux , finley biggerstaff and chris helfrich . we anticipate announcing two to four more additions to this team within the next few weeks . c ) generation transaction development will be dedicated to the ipp merchant services and power plant development and qf restructuring groups . the senior members of this team include thomas suffield , andy kelemen , kelly mahmoud and john house . thomas suffield joined enron in 1996 . most recently , he was the vice - president of origination for the latin american group in azurix . we anticipate announcing two more additions to this team within the next few weeks . d ) upstream transaction development will be dedicated to the producer finance , coal and gas assets groups . the senior members of this team include brad dunn , john curtin and chris hilgert . we hope to announce the addition of at least one vp to this group prior to yearend . ray bowen will have primary oversight responsibilities for the upstream and downstream transaction development teams with jeff donahue having primary responsibilities for the midstream and generation teams . andrea reed will continue to head capital structuring and portfolio management : all junior commercial resources within the transaction development teams will have dual responsibilities to both their transaction development teams and to the capital structuring group . the remaining four groups within ctg will remain largely unchanged . in addition , the origination and the transaction development teams and their respective origination groups will be located together . we believe that these changes will significantly enhance our market coverage and industry knowledge in all ena , s markets particularly in the industrial markets . it will also provide a closer partnership and accountability between the coverage / origination groups and the ctg groups . please help us in continuing to build on the success we have enjoyed in north america by working with us to implement these changes .",0

"" there may be two separate questions to ask here . first , in the context of the current market ( or the market which may develop in the next 1 - 2 years ) , will the metarouter be a commercially viable product ? that is , will it address an actual need in the market , or would it be more cost effective just to use technicians with jumper cables to provision circuits ? the second question ( our first real technical question ) : is the metarouter technology scalable ? before starting on this project , vince and i will need to make the proper introductions with the principles who are implementing this technology . 3 . aggregation of loads . a recurring question comes from a number of areas such as ip , network storage , and streaming media transport sales : what value can i get form aggregating customers , each of which has some type of stochastic load profile ? giuseppe touched on this problem as it relates to ip transport , but it may be interesting to try and look in more detail . the main stumbling block may be that we currently have basically no actual customer data . i am told that in a few months we will have some more useful history . my understanding is that what will be available will be 5 - minute averages of usage , so we still will not know on a short time scale what the distribution of load looks like . i hope that this gives you enough information to get some idea of what our concerns are at this point . please let me know your thoughts about these topics . i would expect , for instance that question number 1 may not be reasonable as a research project , but might be a question which you would feel comfortable in addressing by giving us your qualitative opinions , maybe in the form of a talk here at enron . again , let me know your thoughts , and i look forward to seeing you again soon . stinson nick bambos on 12 / 20 / 2000 12 : 14 : 40 pm to : vince . j . kaminski @ enron . com cc : stinson . gibner @ enron . com subject : stanford project hello vince and stinson , first of all , best wishes for happy holidays ! ! ! ! if you are in the stanford area during the holidays , let ' s get together some time to have dinner . i have formally established the project - thanks again for funding it - and i have also recruited the second phd student . his name is eric cope , and he is a top - notch student , very mature , and entrepreneurial ! we have started working on some interesting problems in this area . i would hope that eric could spend the coming summer at enron to get immersed into the "" problem / opportunity generation environment .

"Subject: update : ffvols ted , an update on the implementation for ffvols : ( 1 ) in comparing 6 days of historical var calculations ( with that of the implied ) for agg - gas , we have found that the historical var calculations are consistently lower over this period , by roughly 17 mm . the implied volatilities are much higher at this period , anticipating strong winter prices . ( 2 ) at this time , the consensus is not to relase the historical implementation into production , and the official line to traders will be that the method is still in testing . the historical var is 19 . 2 mm and the implied is 37 mm for effective date of 09 / 25 . ( 3 ) further testing is in progress on a hybrid methodology ( which i mentioned last week , whereby historical vols are scaled by the ratio of prompt to historical - prompt volatilities ) , to atleast capture some implied / forward effects . tanya ' s analysis on a fictitious portfolio indicates higher var numbers , but poorer backtesting in comparison to the historical approach . this approach serves as an intermediate , and seems appropriate in periods such as the current one , wherein the historical numbers might be considerably lower than those of the implied . ( 4 ) winston will start testing using these hybrid vols , and if the results are deemed satisfactory , that will be the production methodology . of course , we will obtain all var numbers concurrently to serve as different indicators and beacons of risk . the production number will hopefully be a sensible compromise of the different methods . regards naveen",0

"Subject: a colossal and dangerous failure - cera alert title : a colossal and dangerous failure url : http : / / www 20 . cera . com / eprofile ? u = 35 & m = 2185 overview : western energy * california governor stays the course california governor gray davis provided his strongest public statements to date regarding the state , s power crisis in his annual state of the state address on january 8 , 2001 . echoing many of his previous positions on what he perceives as a flawed and unfair california market structure , the governor labeled the state , s electricity market system a colossal and dangerous failure . among other actions , he launched new initiatives valued at $ 1 billion to encourage conservation , provide financing and land to new generators , grant authority to utilities to engage in a portfolio of transactions to manage electricity costs , and increase regulatory scrutiny of existing market suppliers . the governor also called for a greater role for the state in overseeing and constructing new power plants . the governor acknowledged that the actions proposed are only some of the steps necessary to put california on the road to recovery . details regarding sources of funding for the initiative are still forthcoming . although he stated that california , s investor - owned utilities must not be allowed to go bankrupt , no formal plan for ensuring their solvency was given . the financial community continues to lack the assurance it requires to continue to provide financial backing for pacific gas and electric and southern california edison . at this time the state legislature remains the body most likely to guarantee their solvency . the governor again criticized the federal energy regulatory commission for what he believes has been its failure to manage and restrain properly the wholesale market . merchant plant generators were accused of gouging the state , and it was suggested that these generators acted illegally in their operations , jeopardizing the reliability of the power grid . new , more severe sanctions were promised for those caught withholding power or extracting what investigators find as unreasonable profits . a los angeles times poll released the morning before the governor , s address indicated that the majority of californians still do not believe there is an energy crisis . although the 33 percent growth in the state , s economy over the past ten years has nearly outstripped the state , s and surrounding region , s supplies of power , the bulk of the governor , s statements continue to focus on the culpability of power producers , rather than the serious supply shortfall . though the governor introduced steps to fund and facilitate the construction of new generating plants , increased regulatory scrutiny and the threat of sanctions will exacerbate the concern already expressed by plant developers and the financial community that the investment climate in california is excessively risky . * * end * * follow above url for complete report . come shoot the rapids with us at ceraweek 2001 , "" shooting the rapids : strategies and risks for the energy future "" in houston , february 12 - 16 , 2001 ! for more information and to register , please visit http : / / www 20 . cera . com / ceraweek / e - mail category : alert cera knowledge area ( s ) : western energy , to make changes to your cera . com account go to : forgot your username and password ? go to : http : / / www 20 . cera . com / client / forgot this electronic message and attachments , if any , contain information from cambridge energy research associates , inc .

"" so many times that sensible people have learned to discount such claims . but now a bona fide wolf has arrived , whose predatory behavior is doing terrible damage to our most populous state * and nobody will believe it . true , california would be heading for a summer of power shortages even if it had never deregulated . and even if there was workable competition in the wholesale electricity market , prices in that market would spike during periods of peak demand , transferring billions of dollars from either taxpayers or consumers to the generators . but the evidence is now overwhelming that there isn ' t workable competition in california ' s power market , and that the actions of generators "" gaming the system "" have greatly magnified the crisis . the key fact is that california has somehow remained in a state of more or less continuous power shortage and very high wholesale prices regardless of the level of demand . a rash of outages has kept the electricity market conveniently * and very profitably * short of supply even during periods of low demand , when there ought to be lots of excess capacity . as frank wolak , the stanford economist who also advises the state ' s power grid , has pointed out , an outage at a power plant is a lot like an employee calling in sick . you can ' t tell directly whether he is really sick or has chosen to take the day off for other reasons , but you can look for circumstantial evidence . and such evidence has convinced mr . wolak that "" generators use forced outages strategically to withhold capacity from the market "" * a view shared by a growing number of other researchers . which brings us to the latest move by the federal energy regulatory commission . on wednesday , the commission apparently decided to offer california some relief , and put new price caps in place on the california electricity market . i say "" apparently "" because the more you look at the plan the less likely it seems to be any help at all . indeed , the measure was passed on a 2 - to - 1 vote , with william massey * the one commissioner who has been sympathetic to calls for price controls * voting against it on the grounds that it would be ineffectual . what ' s wrong with ferc ' s plan ? first , it caps prices only in emergency conditions * ignoring the fact that electricity prices have stayed at hard - to - explain levels even when there is no emergency . in effect , the plan is laid out as if the electricity market were really competitive , in spite of all the evidence that it is not . second , even those emergency price caps are full of loopholes , offering extensive opportunities for what mr . wolak calls "" megawatt laundering "" * selling power to affiliated companies that for one reason or another are exempted from the price controls ( for example , the controls do not apply to "" imports "" from neighboring states ) , then selling it back into the california market . severin borenstein of the university of california energy institute adds that because the allowed price depends on the cost of generation at the least efficient plant , generators will have a clear incentive to produce inefficiently : "" i predict we will find some plants we never heard of before that are suddenly operating again , and they will be pretty inefficient . "" the general verdict seems to be that this is not a serious plan . there are serious proposals to mitigate the crisis out there * indeed , last fall mr . wolak submitted a proposal that was well received by other experts * but ferc has ignored all of them . the charitable interpretation is that ferc still doesn ' t get it , that it just can ' t bring itself to believe that this time the wolf is real . the uncharitable interpretation is that last week ' s action was meant to fail . the medley report , an online newsletter , calls the ferc plan "" a grand exercise in posturing without substance . . . a very clever temporary move by the bush administration to deflect any political fallout "" from the looming disaster . whatever the explanation , the plain fact is that ferc and the administration have yet to offer california any significant relief . 00 fo 04 b 3 blabf visit nytimes . com for complete access to the most authoritative news coverage on the web , updated throughout the day . become a member today ! it ' s free ! http : / / www . nytimes . com ? eta how to advertise - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - for information on advertising in e - mail newsletters or other creative advertising opportunities with the new york times on the web , please contact alyson racer at alyson @ nytimes . com or visit our online media kit at http : / / www . nytimes . com / adinfo for general information about nytimes . com , write to help @ nytimes . com . copyright 2001 the new york times company",0

"" it ' s a market with mix of small and large players and companies that define their roles differently , "" said ken weilerstein , an analyst at gartner group inc . in stamford , conn . enron ' s plan also could help enterprise - level users get additional benefits along with the storage capacity they ' re renting , such as security and disaster recovery support , he added . ravi thuraisingham , director of global bandwidth risk management at enron broadband services , said the new offering won ' t include additional security features . but enron does plan to standardize on a set of ssp services and bundle them with disaster recovery and communications bandwidth capabilities , he said . initially , enron - - which had total revenue of $ 101 billion last year - - expects to charge users monthly fees of $ 25 to $ 55 per gigabyte of managed storage , depending on market conditions and the length of time a company expects to need the capacity . "" we ' re there to try to discover a market clearing price , "" said thuraisingham , adding that the service is tentatively due to go online in the third quarter . enron said it has already signed best buy co . , one of the leading retailers of consumer electronics , computers and software in the u . s . , to buy the storage capacity it needs to support a customer relationship management application through storagenetworks . connecting users such as best buy to available storage could take anywhere from three days to three months , according to thuraisingham . under enron ' s plan , storage capacity owned by participating ssps will be connected to an existing network of switching hubs through which the company currently trades telecommunications bandwidth . enron said it has 18 switching centers , or "" pooling points , "" in the u . s . , and another seven overseas . at first , the company plans to focus its attention on ssps in boston and other metropitan areas where the necessary networking plumbing can be easily installed . but even there , thuraisingham said , enron is "" pretty much in the initial stages of getting ssps up to speed on what the market is about . "" enron has been managing online trades of telecommunications bandwidth since the spring of 1999 . later that year , it also launched a web site called enrononline that oversees the trading of natural gas , electricity and other commodities . that quickly became the world ' s largest e - commerce site and is now said to be processing more than $ 1 billion worth of transactions daily . norman levine enron broadband services 713 - 853 - 5010 norman _ levine @ enron . net",0

( note : no overlap ) . this results in a set of around 494 vectors of ratios ( approximately 247 trading days per year ) . example : if the first three yield curves in the historical set look like this : 19980801 6 . 5 6 . 6 6 . 7 . . . . . . . . . 7 . 2 19980802 6 . 3 6 . 3 6 . 6 . . . . . . . . . 6 . 9 19980803 6 . 6 6 . 8 6 . 9 . . . . . . . . . 7 . 1 then the change from 8 / 1 / 98 to 8 / 2 / 98 is : 6 . 3 / 6 . 5 6 . 3 / 6 . 6 6 . 6 / 6 . 7 . . . . . . . . . . 6 . 9 / 7 . 1 and the change from 8 / 2 / 98 to 8 / 3 / 98 is : 6 . 6 / 6 . 3 6 . 8 / 6 . 3 6 . 9 / 6 . 6 . . . . . . . . . 7 . 1 / 6 . 9 2 ) randomly select 62 of these "" ratio "" vectors ( approx . 62 trading days in a quarter ) . 3 ) multiply these ratio vectors together to get a single vector ( ie , the 62 6 mo ratios are multiplied together , the 62 lyr ratios are multiplied togeter , etc . ) . the result represents a single quarterly yield curve transformation . apply it to "" today ' s "" yield curve . the resulting yield curve represents one simulated quarterly change in interest rates 4 ) repeat steps 2 and 3 until an adequate number of yield curves are generated , say 100 . 5 ) proceed with testing process . i would be interested in your comments . leslie abreo andrew kalotay associates , inc . 61 broadway , ste 3025 new york ny 10006 phone : ( 212 ) 482 0900 fax : ( 212 ) 482 0529 email : leslie . abreo @ kalotay . com visit aka ' s website at http : / / www . kalotay . com - fasl 33 article . pdf",0

"Subject: re : var vince thanks for the update - especially your point 3 which echoes our own discussion yesterday : i want to clarify responsibilities for maintenance and administration of var . we need transparency around the process so that mapping decisions , for example , are easily made , supported and reviewed . it became clear after last friday ' s events , that we are in an awkward paradigm with respect to how we handle var here , particularly at "" pressure points "" . i am putting together the scope of a "" general overhaul "" of the var process , including method and administration , to which i hope we would all buy in , so be assured of our co - operation . dp - - - - - original message - - - - - from : kaminski , vince sent : wednesday , april 11 , 2001 2 : 49 pm to : port , david cc : lavorato , john ; kaminski , vince ; tamarchenko , tanya subject : var david , during today ' s var coordination meeting we had a discussion of issues related to mapping of the forward price curves into core locations . mapping is a necessity dictated by the limitations of the computer system : we have to reduce the dimensionality of the problem to stay within the bounds of available cpu memory . also , in some cases the quality of price discovery is poor and it ' s difficult to model the price curves independently : we solve the problem by mapping them into more liquid and better behaved core locations curves . we have agreed on the following : 1 . winston will investigate the it side and determine to what extent we can increase the number of forward price curves that are simulated as basic ( core ) curves . he will investigate the impact of a larger number of the core curves on the time required to complete the var run . 2 . the curves associated with the biggest 10 - 20 positions in each commodity should be modeled as core curves ( i . e . no mapping into other locations ) . it makes sense to monitor the biggest risks separately and avoid aggregating them into less transparent aggregates . 3 . the results of an automated clustering ( mapping ) procedures should be systematically monitored by a human and corrected if they misrepresent the risks of the trading positions . this responsibility should be vested with one person ( right now the responsibility is dispersed through the organization and this means in practice that nobody is responsible ) . research can allocate one person to this task ; cooperation of trading and rac will be critical . vince",0

"Subject: proj . x analytics diligence paul , vince and i spent some time thinking about the diligence process for the trading analytics . there is a limited amount that can be accomplished in a two day time period . i think a reasonable start would be the following : 1 . obtain an audited history of the trading strategies which have been implemented in order to verify profitability , and p / l volatility of each . 2 . review needed working capital and risk capital requirements and compare these to projections for trading income . 3 . review current level of access to electronic markets and verify that a change of ownership would not have adverse consequences , i . e . are there guarantees of continued access using the current systems ? 4 . review feasibility of entry into proposed new markets ? it is far from clear that there will be any synergy with most commodity markets given the current limited "" electronic "" liquidity . 5 . review , at least qualitatively , the current trading strategies being used . try to develop some estimate of how fast the profitability of these strategies will disappear as other ' s implement similar trading models . what is the trade off between trade quantity and slippage . 6 . review the methodology used to generate new trading strategies which will be needed to replace the current models as they become unprofitable and outdated . 7 . try to determine if there will be any value in transfer of trading technology to enron ' s other markets , given the illiquidity of these markets as compared to the financial equity markets . if there were a sufficiently long time horizon for our analysis , we would probably want to run their system on a test set of data . let me know if you have other suggestions . - - stinson",0

"Subject: re : clayton vernon i have some concerns regarding vernon being able to transfer even if he is temporarily successful with deliverables defined for him . according to enron policy , an employee can only transfer if he is in satisfactory standing or better . this is to prevent problem employees being moved from one organization to the another . this sounds like a "" work ethic "" issue to me and the chances that it would continue in another department are great even if he is temporarily successful . but if kevin presto knows the situation and he still wants vernon in the end , i will push for an exception as this satisfies our obligation to be forthright . please keep me informed of clayton ' s progress as time goes on so we do not get criticized for passing on a problem employee . thanks . sheila vince j kaminski 07 / 28 / 2000 08 : 35 am to : kevin m presto / hou / ect @ ect cc : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect , sheila walton / hou / ect @ ect , vasant shanbhogue / hou / ect @ ect subject : clayton vernon kevin , vasant and i talked to clayton about his request for transfer . clayton received a conditional approval contingent upon completion of the current project he works on . vasant will formulate exact definition of the deliverables and we will hold clayton to it . if he fails to deliver the request for transfer will be rejected . anything else would be highly demoralizing to everybody . clayton has so far produced exactly zero ( no single output was delivered ) though he was advertising the projects inside and outside the group as completed . i want you to be aware of it , because i have serious doubts regarding clayton ' s integrity . vince",0

"Subject: non - firm power curve building hi vince , amitava and i have received a request to build a non - firm power curve for each region from david hoog ' s double trigger folks . the objective , as they explain it , is to allow the desk to buy non - firm from the market , buy david ' s outage product , and sell firm to the market . accountants would like a curve to mark the non - firm position . my initial thought is that the desk should provide this non - firm curve , but it seems that this market is very illiquid and they are reluctant so they have put the ball in david hoog ' s court to build the curve if david wants to sell his product internally to the desk . assuming we build the curve , the next issue is how to define "" non - firm "" ? the only way i can think of is to tie the non - firmness to a specific generation unit or group of units . this will allow the purchase of david ' s outage product to cover the non - firmness risk . tying the definition of non - firmness to a whole region seems implausible - - - what does it mean to give a marketer the option to not deliver power if there is any problem anywhere in the region ? consequently , the non - firm curve takes on a unit - level interpretation , and not a region - level interpretation . consequently , i do not see how we can talk about the "" non - firm curve for the region "" ? we will need to build a non - firm curve for each generation unit or group of units . maybe i could get your thoughts later today . thanks , vasant",0

"Subject: p + option valuation model mark , after recently reviewing the booking of the p + options , it is my understanding that these options are being valued using a standard spread option model where the price evolution of the two legs of the spread are assumed to be correlated geometric brownian motion processes ( i . e . the price process assumptions are consistent with standard black - 76 model assumptions extended to two commodities ) . the payoff for a call option is : payoff = max ( 0 , a - b - k ) . where : a = nxwti ( delivery price for nymex ) b = posting price = ( wti swap ) - ( posting basis ) k = posting bonus ( fixed ) . the only complication of this option as compared to most other spread options is that leg "" b "" of the spread is a combination of three prices , the two futures prices which make up the wti swap for the given month , and the average posting basis during the delivery month . combination of these prices is easily addressed by simply setting the volatility of leg "" b "" and the correlation to correctly account for the volatility of this basket of prices and its correlation with the nxwti price . i believe that this approach is more straightforward than the alternative , which would be to use a three or four - commodity model with its associated volatility and correlation matrices . in summary , i believe that this is an appropriate model for valuation of these types of options , assuming that the inputs are set correctly . regards , stinson gibner v . p . research",0

"Subject: fw : london work hi , how are you ? london seems to be the same as when i left in august - no sun , cold , serious looking people , expensive , etc . in addition , we have had may day riots , a post office bombing , train strike , etc . not to mention all the excitement in enron credit . it would be nice to know who i am supposed to be reporting to . i am getting loads of conflicting messages - as illustrated in the forwarded email from vasant . according to you and slava , the strategy paper / duffie report seems to be a higher priority . however , vasant seems to indicate ( in his forwarded email ) that this is not the priority at the moment . in addition , there seems to be lots of chaos in enron credit - not only in the houston office , but even more so in the london office . this brings to mind a russian proverb i learned from slava when he expressed his views on the current state of enron credit - "" a fish rots from the head . "" finally , i would like to know exactly what you want me to write in this duffie report : do you want to hear what enron credit would like to hear - that all they need is for us to develop a private firm model for their exisiting "" infrastructure "" ? or do you want to hear what i really see , hear , read , etc . ? if the latter is true , then i may need to write two reports , because what i am learning does not look too good and would probably not make the enron credit personnel too happy . well , i think i have said enough for now . look forward to your feedback . thanks , iris - - - - - original message - - - - - from : shanbhogue , vasant sent : friday , may 04 , 2001 3 : 39 pm to : mack , iris cc : dhar , amitava subject : london work hi iris , amitava must have told you that both he and i are getting swamped with work here . as a result , we expect you to take the lead in scoping the enron credit project and making sure the infrastructure is readied . you should also make sure to understand the econometric / data analysis software side of the project - - this is probably more important than preparing a document for duffie right now . you should definitely sit with ben / george and actually run the software with them to get a feel for how it is to be used . but we also need to be able to try out potential other ways of analyzing data . both amitava and i will help as best as we can , and answer any direct questions , but we will have limited time to review documents , etc . i expect amitava to get heavily involved once data starts coming , but we expect you to have already set up the infrastructure etc for the data . hope the trip is going well . would you be extending the trip for some more time ? vasant",0

"" irrespective of urgency of this approval to us , the best thing is that we are getting the approval without draft electricity bill , 2001 being finalised . as most of you are aware , initially the proposal was stalled at fipb level pending finalisation of electricity bill . then it has gone to group of ministers who had taken a positive approach and now the cabinet has cleared it . now fipb either issue an approval to enron llc or advise us to avail automatic route . we will have one of it , culminating great team work . seethayya",0

"Subject: enron europe organisational changes once the arcos plant in spain is financially closed ( expected in q 2 of this year ) eric gonzales will be moving back to houston to work exclusively on co - managing enron ' s lng markets . we are very appreciative of eric ' s efforts in europe since early 1998 and look forward to continuing to work very closely with his lng team in the coming years . from this point forward eric will focus his remaining time in europe exclusively on financially closing arcos . we are therefore making the following changes immediately . the origination responsibility for italy will be moved under eric shaw . ricardo bortolloti will continue in the role as italian country manager and will report to eric shaw . mariano gentilini will become our country manager for spain and portugal and will report directly to the enron europe office of the chairman . the arcos power project is likely to create a large gas to power spread position and so we have asked paul mead to assume the added responsibility for our natural gas risk positions in spain . this position is much more likely to be supplied and influenced by lng rather than continental gas markets and paul will work quite closely with both enron global markets and the continental gas team . ross sankey who has been managing our marketing efforts in holland will also head a new organization that will focus on subsea interconnector and power transmission opportunities across europe . among the prospects his team will pursue include projects from norway to the uk , sweden to the continent , and bidding on existing french interconnector capacity . he will report to eric shaw for the holland markets and to richard lewis for the transmission responsibilities . finally the continental gas team is interacting far more with our uk gas team than our power teams on the continent . therefore david galagher who manages our continental gas team will now report directly to richard lewis . we have aggressive income targets for this year and anticipate that these changes will create the right links to optimize our performance . please help make these changes as smooth as possible . john sherriff michael brown",0

"Subject: sap timesheets hello everyone : thanks to krishna we have come up with a plan that i believe is going to save everyone some time . we have created an excel spreadsheet , with the time sheet form , and there is a tab for each of you , in alphabetical order by first name across the bottom of the spreadsheet . the spreadsheet is saved in o : \ research \ common \ sap timesheets \ mmm - dd . ( mmm = month and dd = 15 th or end of the month time period - i . e . , this time period is 7 / 16 - 7 / 31 / 00 ) . the regular 8 hour days have already been entered for each of you . therefore , if you have no exceptions you just need to type in your name in the bottom right corner by the place marked ( emp sign ) , and save it . if you do have exception time , simply open that particular pay period and show the exception time ( off - duty , vacation , overtime , sick time , jury time , family time , etc . ) that you may have had during that pay period . some of the codes have already been entered for you , the rest are listed at the bottom of the spreadsheet and just change the ones that are already there for whatever applies . if you are an exempt employee you need only show your off - duty time or exception time . if you are non - exempt you must show all hours worked and if you have overtime , you must add that to the 8 hours regular time . there is no code for non - exempt overtime . this should make it much easier for everyone . however , i will need you to fill out this timesheet form by the 13 th and 29 th of each month . i will try and remind you by email the day before . i would still appreciate your emailing me of any vacation , hod day , or any other off - duty that you know about before hand , that way if you are out of pocket for any reason and cannot fill in one of the forms , i will be able to fill in your timesheet for you . if you have any questions or suggestions , please let me know . thanks ! shirley",0
"Subject: mark - to - market bob , i wanted to continue the analysis on mark - to - market that i had spoken to you about on the phone . i thought that it was getting very difficult explaining the whole transaction by phone , so i am having krishnarao who is in vince ' s group explain the transaction to you . krishna has been helping us structure the deal here in india , and he has just returned to houston from india after working with the team here . he will seek an appointment with you to explain the transaction . i would like you to please spend some time with him , and then based on the discussion please send us a note detailing how sucha a transaction would be marked to market . please cosider the fact that currently there are no such transactions from the indian side . this is a very important transaction for us , and we may need to repeat this in coming months , hence setting up the system to account for these maybe well worth it . also , what i am concerned about is that there will be an enron india ( eipl ) account in india based on indian gaap , and upon consolidation there will be a us gaap accounting in the us . it is here that we would like to have mark - to - market accounting . eipl is structured through mauritius , and then caymen islands . another key question to consider is that when we m - t - m the transaction in the us there will be a tax accruing in the year of m - t - m ( say 2000 ) . however , in india , as a result of the accrual accounting , there will not be any income showing till the year 2002 or 2003 . we will need to know how that would get treated , and whether there is a way to get credit for the tax payable in the us . i am also confused about whether us tax would be levied , since none of the income is being brought back into the us ( remains overseas - subpart - f and other concerns ) . finally , we have been working hard in structuring a fixed price contract and getting a fixed for floating swap in the us ( this is still not allowed to indian corporates ) . i need you to think about this too , and see if some type of accounting will solve this issue . krishna knows what i am talking about , and will brief you on the same . krishna - please walk bob through the three structures we had worked here . look forward to your help and comments . this is going to be an exciting project for us all . regards , sandeep .",0

"Subject: re : gwen koepke anne , thanks for contacting me about this . as a matter of fact , i wanted to talk to you about it today as this matter was outstanding for a long time . i think we should go ahead and adjust gwen to manager , effective march 1 . the compensation would be her current base plus 10 k . this is what we typically do when we promote an associate to a manager . such promotions take place in march and i think gwen should not be penalized for the inefficiency of her management ( i . e . my and maureen ' s procrastination ) . on unrelated and more serious matter . gary hickerson is the primary client for maureen ' s services . he communicated to me a few weeks ago that he is unwilling to underwrite maureen ' s position ( he is in general unhappy with her contribution ) . this means that maureen will have to find another sponsor or leave enron . given her abrasive and aggressive personality finding another internal customer will be quite a challenge . gary volunteered to pay a very generous severance to maureen from his budget . i would like to talk to you about it when you have a few minutes . vince from : anne labbe / enron @ enronxgate on 05 / 02 / 2001 10 : 34 am to : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect cc : subject : gwen koepke vince , just wanted to touch base with you . i have tried to contact maureen so that gwen ' s title and salary can be adjusted to manager just as you requested , but have not heard any response from her . would you like for me to wait until i hear from maureen or should i go ahead and proceed in changing her title ? i just want to make sure that gwen is in the right peer group during prc . also , i am going to try and set up a meeting with you next week through shirley to discuss any buring issues that you are experiencing , and your expectations during prc . thanks , anne",0

most of our projects are set up to help businesses that face massive uncertainties of some kind . decision analysis helps people explore problems , and redesign their decision - making process to increase the chance of them making the right choices . for example , imagine a biotechnology company that has to decide whether to put itself up for sale , enter a strategic relationship , or continue to go it alone . each of those options will lead on to other value - enhancing or value - destroying scenarios . we work with the client firstly to understand and challenge the assumptions associated with their most likely business development scenarios , and secondly to help them identify decisions that would help protect or increase the value of their technology or company . quantifying technical , regulatory or commercial risks can sometimes be a challenge . in technology - intensive fields , however , we have found that managers ( often scientists ) are quite willing to describe the main sources of risk and to assess the probability that a risky event may or may not occur . how does this kind of risky decision - making relate to real options valuation ? you can ' t say what the value of an asset is until you decide what you might use it for . this means that , to form an opinion about the value of an asset , you must explore the most important decisions that you are likely to face and that will have a significant impact on the value of the asset . so decision analysis helps to define the business problem and to uncover a stream of inter - related choices that are , in effect , "" real options "" . for example , if a company is trying to decide whether to invest in a risky project , does it have the option to pull the plug on the investment at an early stage if a pilot project gives a poor showing ? that "" real "" option reduces the riskiness , and increases the potential value , of the original business plan . so real options and decision analysis are really very close to one another . but you don ' t have to believe in real options valuations to find decision analysis useful . what do you mean ? often decision analysis can help managers to identify the key risks in a strategic decision , attach weights to these , and show clearly how they interact . for many companies this "" risk discovery "" is the most valuable part of the exercise . real options theory has been criticised recently for being , well , not very realistic . is it a practical approach to valuation ? it ' s important not to hold out unrealistic hopes for the real options approach to valuation . but it ' s an exciting methodology , and it ' s also sometimes the only reasonable way of tackling a very practical problem . for example , when a firm sells an asset , the firm might have to make an independent valuation of the asset for legal or corporate governance reasons . but in many businesses today there are assets that simply cannot be valued in traditional ways because they are difficult to link to cashflows . the cashflows might not exist because the business is so novel , or they might be hidden . in some respects , a real options analysis is much closer to reality than a traditional valuation . how , exactly ? the classic way of valuing a future business is to base the calculation on a single discounted cashflow that is projected from the activity . but this doesn ' t really take account of the way that scenarios can change , or the fact that managers can react to situations as they unfold . i mentioned earlier the option to kill a project or business at an early point . but the upside is that if a pilot project yields exciting results , it might allow you to invest more quickly and reach a revenue - generating position in a much shorter time than the original business plan allows . so to value a future business we really need to look at the cashflows that might arise in a number of scenarios . this is "" realistic "" in that , if the project gets the green light , you can bet that its managers will be taking that kind of decision on the ground all of the time . what ' s the most challenging part of mapping out a decision analysis tree ? modelling the links between the variables in the decision tree - - it ' s something we have particular strengths in . but it ' s also tricky to know when it ' s worthwhile to add on more detail , and when it ' s better to draw back . in a recent erisk interview , rick buy , chief risk officer of enron , said that over the two years that enron had experimented with the real options concept , it had found it of "" limited , but not zero , use "" . why is there a slight air of cynicism about real options in some businesses today ? it ' s strange that enron would profess this attitude . a few years ago , it was widely reported to have used real option valuation to support a very profitable purchase decision . they had apparently bought cheaply some older generators in the us that generated electricity at a very high cost . they knew that they could mothball them for most of the year , and switch them on only when the electricity prices were sufficiently high . nevertheless , from a customer ' s point of view , there might have been too much hype about the methodology . one problem in the application of real options technology is that there are , perhaps , too many people trying to tweak reality to conform to their "" perfect "" model . it ' s better to aim for something pragmatic that clearly improves decisions over time . in one pharmaceutical company we worked with recently , we worked together to improve their valuation analyses by moving from a single discounted cash - flow methodology to one that took into account a rather small set of business scenarios . it would have shocked some academics and consultants , but it was an undeniable improvement on the original approach . why do you think financial institutions are only just picking up on your field , when it ' s been applied in the energy industry for 15 years or more ? it might have something to do with the relative stability of the banking world until recently , and the relatively high margins that banking lines have enjoyed . also , industries such as energy and pharmaceuticals tend to have more people with an engineering and science background . the dynamic modelling of decisions is based on methodologies originally dreamed up to help engineers design electrical and electronic systems . this approach is quite distinct from the black - scholes options analyses that the banking world is familiar with : the black - scholes approach is difficult to apply in a real options context , because everything depends on the assumptions that you put into the black - scholes model . the real options approach , on the other hand , is in a sense a way of modelling those assumptions more explicitly . but banks are now adopting some of the thinking , particularly in terms of using decision analysis to pinpoint risks and identify value - enhancing decisions , and in using real options methodologies to sort the wheat from the chaff in their more speculative investments . you mean their internet investments ? we have recently worked with a major dutch bank that had arrived late in the internet game , and then made a considerable number of investments . now that even b 2 b business models have questions marks hanging over them , and many b 2 c businesses are already under water , they wanted to work out which investments might contain real value . in this situation , it ' s a case of ranking priorities and helping the bank make sense of what could turn into a decision - making chaos , rather than sophisticated valuation . it ' s not just a case of whether an internet investment should be killed off , but the problem of whether continued funding for it should take priority over budget demands for major it upgrades in existing businesses , and so on . these are very practical questions and they have to be answered somehow . are there other areas in financial institutions that seem accessible to this approach ? yes , for example , we think it can help work out the value associated with various approaches to marketing a new bank business line . at the moment , many banks are chasing high - net - worth individuals , but it ' s not always clear which kind of individual a particular bank should decide to pursue . the bank might have a regional or industry advantage already in one particular area , for example , music business people . but what is the churn rate associated with this kind of customer ? what is the profitability associated with the customer segment ? will the time and cost benefits of the advantages the bank has in the sector outweigh any disadvantages ? weighing up this kind of complex problem , where one thing leads to and depends on another , is what decision and real options analysis is good at . is there any way of rigorously backtesting or validating real options valuations ? in all honesty , not really . the problem is that by the time the option is exercised , many of the variables surrounding it will have changed , so it ' s difficult to compare our original analysis with how things turn out . however , the value of the analysis comes not only from the final number ( "" the value of this asset is x "" ) but also from providing a thorough process , an outsider ' s point of view , an understanding of the sources of value and , in short , a bit of clearer thinking . if real options are so important , why are they so rarely cited in communications to shareholders and equity analysts ? the battle is still to convince companies to use real option valuations as a significant part of their internal analysis . even in major companies in the oil & gas , and pharmaceutical sectors , where the ideas have taken some root internally , there seems to be a lot of reluctance to use them in external communication . we are working with analysts to understand better what they need to if we are to move things on to the next step . how does the riskiness of a business , in terms of the major strategic dilemmas it faces , relate to its share value , and its capital structure ? that ' s a big question . it ' s related to work my colleagues do on the optimal debt - to - equity capital structure and gearing of a corporation , which in turn arises out of the likely revenue and cost volatilities of the business . the more volatile the business , the less gearing it can sustain , and the higher the cost of capital . our work touches on this in the sense that exercising ( many ) specific real options can allow a firm to change its nature , and thus also its risk profile . one classic example is the pharmaceutical industry . a host of different kinds of companies service that industry from "" big pharma "" companies through to smaller biotechnology startups and run - of - the - mill contract research organisations . a contract research organisation is often operating within a very competitive environment with relatively few risks - - it does not invest in drug development itself - - but also very thin margins . but in fact , a few of these companies have used the skills and knowledge they have developed to become much more substantial and profitable healthcare companies of various kinds . it ' s an example of a company exercising the real options that lie within its skills and assets to transform its own identity . rob jameson , erisk",0

"Subject: extending eu gas guidelines to central and eastern europe - cera insight title : extending eu gas guidelines to central and eastern europe url : http : / / www 20 . cera . com / eprofile ? u = 35 & m = 2184 overview : a comprehensive reform of gas legislation in central and eastern europe is bringing the region in line with the european union , s gas directive . this is true both for the countries expected to enter the union by 2004 ) 05 * czech republic , estonia , hungary , poland , and slovenia - - and for candidates whose entry is not scheduled before the end of the decade - - bulgaria , latvia , lithuania , romania , and slovakia . in cera , s view current developments regarding the establishment of a legal framework for the internal gas market in eastern and central europe look promising from an investor , s point of view . the candidate countries presented a review of progress made in the implementation of the eu gas directive during a two - day workshop held by the european commission and the world bank in paris in november . many of these countries have been reforming their energy industries throughout the 1990 s as part of their transition to a market economy . the results have been mixed , particularly in the utility industries . the 1998 gas directive ( adopted in august 2000 ) now offers a compelling incentive for eu candidate countries to transform their gas industries , while providing a road map to guide them . the critical points relevant to harmonization between the european union and candidate countries include the following : * legal framework and regulation . the legal framework is the cornerstone of enlargement and the yardstick of harmonization in europe . as a result , in all candidate countries in 1999 ) 2000 energy laws were either updated or newly established along the principles spelled out in the gas directive . regulatory bodies have been created by law and are operating in every country , although issues of staffing , financial autonomy , and independence from political influence are not uniformly resolved . * third - party access ( tpa ) and long - term take - or - pay contracts . all candidate countries agree that tpa is a key to market competition . therefore , all have adopted it or intend to do so in their new legislation . although the commission favors regulated tpa , the specific approaches to tpa enforcement in the candidate countries remain unclear in some cases . in particular , the implementation of tpa will have to address the issue of long - term take - or - pay contracts with russia that were signed by all major domestic gas companies and somewhat preempt competition . russian gas is for the most part sold to single , traditional state - owned operators that dominate their internal markets . a balance will need to be struck between these incumbent dominant players and the competitive environment . this is made more complicated by their ownership of large volumes of russian gas supplied in kind in exchange for transit rights to west european customers . article 25 of the directive provides for ! a derogation to companies experiencing difficulties stemming from take - or - pay obligations . this derogation would apply to the companies of candidate countries with historical and commercial links with the russian gas industry . furthermore , article 26 allows derogations to those member states with only one major gas supplier , to those with an + + emerging gas market status , , , or to those without a direct gas connection to the grid of another member state . most of the candidate countries would in principle be able to call on one or more of these grounds for derogation when they join the european union . * price cross - subsidies . residential gas tariffs are artificially low and are financed partially through higher rates applied to industrial consumers . in various countries , tariff increases and the phasing out of subsidies have been scheduled , but such decisions remain politically sensitive to enforce . this has recently been emphasized by high gas prices owing to the linkage of imported gas to oil prices . all candidate countries have set legal frameworks that include the phasing out of cross - subsidies as part of sector reform , but the actual implementation will remain politically difficult . as table 1 indicates , price rebalancing is already under way in most countries expected to enter the european union by mid - decade , but the legal framework itself cannot guarantee the pace of reform . the same goes for candidate countries that have only recently introduced eu - complying energy laws and whose entry to the european union is likely to happen in a longer time frame . * unbundling . most countries understand that the unbundling of transmission companies from their supply businesses is the second critical element of liberalization . to date , unbundling the accounts of these two businesses is all that has been adopted by the member states or in the candidate countries . in the future , the commission is likely to press all eu countries for legal separation ( & structural unbundling 8 ) of the businesses , and candidate countries will have to pursue their reform of the gas sector accordingly . table 1 gives an overview of the state of play in candidate countries . as the table shows , the countries belonging to the second group have only very recently undertaken the reform of the gas sector in accordance with the directive , whereas change had been introduced earlier in the countries scheduled for the first wave . * * end * * follow above url for full report . come shoot the rapids with us at ceraweek 2001 , "" shooting the rapids : strategies and risks for the energy future "" in houston , february 12 - 16 , 2001 !

- please correct me or suggest otherwise . shalesh ganjoo is our lead analyst on this effort . in addition to his effort with your group , he is presently supporting jean mrha with pricing and standardization for a traded storage maret - - stinson gibner is directly supervising him in this effort . shalesh came to us through referal from david cox - - david discovered him at one of his speaking engagements . shalesh had talked to david about traded storage market development some time last october and david refered shalesh to enron research group . we hired shalesh for general analyst position and now he is pulled into all aspect of this storage effort . currently , he is our point person ( with stinson or i supervising his effort ) who is supporting jean mrha and you on the subject . kara knop has aproached shalesh with request for some support and shalesh and she are sorting out each other , s role in this regard . as per my discussion today with david , we need to coordinate this storage effort from the perspective of modeling market assessment etc . for this i suggest shalesh and his effort so that all parties involved can benefit from collective effort within one central source . based on david ' s and my assessment of shalesh ' s capabilities , i would like to suggest that the commercial heads use shalesh for his creative thinking , understanding of the market and analytical capabilities and not just for data gathering and simple research effort . we can add other staff as we see the need and as you request them . please respond this e - mail with your comments if this sounds like aplan , so that we can support this effort efficiently and in a scalable manner . kind regards , ravi . a bit about ebs research group john bloomer and richard reichardt have met me and are aware of my role and stinston gibner ' s role in ebs . i lead a team of quantitative professionals via a group we are calling ebs research . this group reports to stinson gibner ( vp ) and vince kaminski ( md and head of enron research ) . stinson and vince are the original founders of enron corp research that has been charged with model development efforts to support enron energy trading and other enron business . enron research is involved in all aspects of enron buinesses ( ees , international , corporate affairs such as fas 133 and other accounting and new product ( derivatives ) development , etc . ) . within ebs research , there serveral professionals supporting kevin howard ( cfo office ) , john griebling , tom gros and jean mrha , david cox ( via boris ) , and the war room . our main area of focus is with jean mrha ( trading ) and john griebling ( optical network design and optimization , etc . ) . we play a key role with john griebling ' s go forward network design and implementation through our responsiblity to provide traffic engineering analysis and modeling effort . -

"Subject: steve leppard hi vince , hr is working on a mid - year salary review for london people that have a noticeable gap between their compensation at enron and what we would have to pay in the market for a replacement . they highlighted steve as someone with a potential gap - particularly in light of what we ' re seeing in our quant recruiting effort for credit trading and research . i ' d like your opinion on the best way to make sure we keep steve happy and keep him at enron . there are several things i see we can do : 1 ) give him a mid - year pay increase to move him closer to market . i ' m not sure this is the best way to go , especially if we only offer him a token salary increase . 2 ) offer him more responsibility : what are your thoughts on timing for making steve the official head of the london research team ? with my move to ebs , should we accelerate this ? i think this is good way to keep him happy and motivated , and then follow up with a more meaningful salary review at year - end ( as part of the regular process ) that takes into account his greater responsibility . 3 ) we have some people that we ' re trying to get under long - term ( 3 - yr ) contract with a 12 - month notice clause . obviously anyone signing one of these will want significant up - front compensation for being handcuffed . we ' ve not had a lot of success with these here in london , and i would prefer to keep steve happy so he wants to stay with enron rather than contractually binding him to the job . i ' d value your thoughts on this . thanks , dale",0

"Subject: re : joe , i have written to pal quilkey to invite christian werner to houston for a week to discuss how much of his research we can use . vince joseph hrgovcic 08 / 01 / 2000 06 : 51 pm to : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect , mike a roberts / hou / ect @ ect cc : subject : vince , i have inquired into christian ' s climate models . it seems to me like a long term project . chiristian says that his model might be able to do better than the australian met given that they ignore some of the variables he uses and that they are an "" old boy ' s network "" resistant to new developments , but i don ' t think the same can be said of most other weather services . as far as the nws goes , they run their model on a cray , they have several very talented phd ' s working on it full - time , and even then , they can only get a dozen or so runs per night . in other words , it ' s a huge system . replicating something even close to that will not be an easy task . that being said , i think there are related applications that we could look into . since i ' ve already promised the rac group and the weather desk ' s pjm traders to put together a vector autoregressive model of daily temperatures , i think it makes sense to see if something better than a var model can be put together , perhaps a very stripped down version of the kind of model christian has . what i have in mind is something that would give us say , up to several dozens of "" possible "" temperature forecasts every morning , which would be calculated using actual climate models ( as opposed to time series models ) . i would not use this as a forecasting tool ( the nws model results would make a far better "" best guess "" ) , but our ensemble could still be used to provide a distribution of temperature scenarios . this ensemble would have several uses : 1 ) we could price the book for the ensemble of runs and thereby obtain a more realistic daily v @ r for the weather book ( and eventually interface that with the power desk ' s v @ r calculations ) 2 ) we could use the ensemble of forecasts to relate temperature forecasts to week - ahead cdd and hdd distributions ( for use in our demand swaps ) 3 ) if freese - notis were to give us one of their qualitative forecasts , e . g . , "" expect the trough to recede "" we could sort through the different monte carlo scenarions , find one in which the trough in question is receding , and use corresponding output statistics to download the actual temperatures corresponding to that scenario . up till now , we haven ' t found a good way of getting a numerical fix on what different forecasts actually mean temperature - wise 4 ) we could use the associated visualization routines that come with such models to get animations of the evolution of historical weather patterns . the traders could use these in order to look for historical periods which roughly match current weather conditions and get an idea of what could happen ; although these meteorological models would not be good for simulating month - ahead or season - ahead weather ( trust me on this ) we could still use the visualization technology to do to analogous seasonal animations . just today , i ' ve spoken with dr . jacobsen of stanford university , who has written one of the more recent textbooks on climate forecasting , and who worked with ucla ' s general circulation model . he says that getting a simplified version of mm 5 ( which is itself a simplified , limited - area version of the gcm models that nws , cola , and ucla use ) would take several months to implement , assuming the people involved are already well versed in the technology . also , i have contacted aer , a massachusetts - based weather consulting firm , and they tell me that they have a mm 5 model running daily ( only one run per night ) , and also some smaller pc models up and running . they are of course willing to work with us for a fee . their mm 5 version runs on a $ 200 , 000 parallel processor . i am open to your suggestions ( or objections as the case may be ) . i ' m not sure how the costs would be apportioned given that this would benefit all of enron , and not just the weather desk . i am scheduled to go to boston next week anyway , and would like to use the opportunity to visit with aer . i will of course coordinate any projects with christian ( if we get something like this up and running it will be more likely that he can get the computing power he needs to run his own australian model ) . joe",0

"Subject: the lure of the san network world fusion focus : amy larsen decarlo on storage in the enterprise today ' s focus : the lure of the san 03 / 14 / 00 dear wincenty kaminski , today ' s focus : the lure of the san by amy larsen decarlo e - business is changing how businesses value information . information has become a strategic asset that gives companies an edge over their market rivals . companies use intelligence to identify new markets and make contact with prospective customers . in this media - saturated era , information itself is packaged and sold as a product . this makes the ability to supply users with fast access to stored information on a continuous basis absolutely crucial . companies are clearly coming to a crossroads in their storage implementations . with estimates for internet storage capacity needs doubling every three months , it professionals are hungry for a scalable solution to help them consolidate control of stored information . they often look to storage - area networks ( san ) as a better option to manage their information storage systems than distributed models . today , most organizations rely on a distributed storage model that uses file servers to process i / o requests from end users and other application servers . in this model , all requests for data go through the file server that owns the attached storage disks , and only one file server can tap data on a particular disk via a scsi bus . this model has several shortcomings . first , the amount of data a server can access is restricted to the number of disks supported by the bus , which limits the capacity of a single file server . second , because the server processes each i / o request , it risks becoming a bottleneck . third , this server model carries some daunting availability limitations , because only one file server is allowed to access a set of disks . if that file server or any of its scsi connections fails , then users and other application servers lose access to the stored files . this model carries other major disadvantages . distributed file servers rely on the data transport network to run backup and recovery operations which can eat up bandwidth and slow normal network transmissions to a crawl . finally , this decentralized setup is difficult to manage from both a logical and a physical perspective . file server based storage systems are distributed throughout the enterprise , so it is often difficult to assess current and future capacity needs . and because these servers use a parallel cabling scheme to link the file server to the disk array , they can also be cumbersome to set up and manage . sans promise to mitigate the problems that plague conventional file servers , largely through consolidation of control . these specialized storage networks claim higher availability , faster performance , centralized management , and by their architecture , the capability to remove bandwidth - intensive data backup and recovery operations from the lan . this frees up the lan for normal data communications and ensures smoother back - up operations . using high - speed transports like fibre channel , sans offer a high - performance network optimized for moving storage data . sans also make way for new storage implementations like lan - free backup . and , because fibre channel can support distances of up to 10 kilometers , san devices can be widely distributed , but also centrally managed as one network . yet , as was the case with lans in their younger years , sans are still developing . vendors are still working out major product interoperability issues , while companies deploying san technology struggle with how to merge the very different worlds of storage and networks and manage both together . ultimately the hope is that , like lans , sans will develop into a mature and highly manageable solution that supplies substantial benefits at lower costs . given that storage deployment and ongoing support costs can total 10 times the acquisition price for the equipment , the consolidated management capabilities of a san may deliver the biggest benefit to business . to contact amy larsen decarlo : -

"Subject: alliance info alert : richardson and ferc orders dear generation / power marketing executive : the following are summaries of two significant activities that occurred friday , december 15 1 . energy secretary richardson issuance of an emergency order . ( richardson ' s statement and fpa section 202 ( c ) order is posted on doe ' s web site at : http : / / www . energy . gov / hqpress / releaseso 0 / decpr / pro 0309 . html ) 2 . ferc ' s 12 / 15 / 00 final order to fix california wholesale markets ( ferc ' s order can be viewed at california supplies ordered by richardson o richardson orders listed entities to supply excess power to california iso o order is effective as soon as iso certifies shortage , but ends 12 / 21 / 00 , unless extended o prices to be agreed to by supplier and iso , or ferc will set rate later o fpa emergency power authority transferred to doe in 1977 as he said he would on december 13 , u . s . department of energy secretary bill richardson found "" an emergency exists in california by reason of the shortage of electric energy "" and issued an emergency order under section 202 ( c ) of the federal power act ( fpa ) requiring listed generators and marketers to provide any power in excess of the needs of their firm customers to the california iso . in a statement , richardson said the threat to the reliability of the california grid requires a long - term solution , but that in the short - term power must keep flowing to the state to avert blackouts . the 76 listed suppliers have 12 hours after the iso certifies to doe that it has been unable to acquire adequate supplies in the market to begin providing requested service to the iso . the iso must inform each supplier subject to the order of the amount and type of energy or services required by 9 : 00 pm , eastern standard time , the day before the services are needed . the order directs the iso to allocate , to the extent feasible , requested services among subject entities in proportion to each supplier ' s available excess power . the order is effective immediately and will terminate at 3 : 00 am , eastern time , december 21 , 2000 , unless extended . to continue to obtain supplies under this emergency authority , the iso must re - certify the shortage to doe headquarters every 24 hours . the terms of the provision of electric energy and other services by suppliers to the iso "" are to be agreed to by the parties . "" if no agreement is reached , then under the fpa ' s emergency authority secretary richardson "" will immediately prescribe the conditions of service and refer the rate issue to the federal energy regulatory commission for a determination at a later date by that agency in accordance with its standards and procedures , and will prescribe by supplemental order such rates as it finds to be just and reasonable . "" the authority of ferc to set rates for power supplied under emergency order at just and reasonable levels where the parties themselves do not agree to a rate is explicitly included in fpa section 202 ( c ) . the doe organization act of 1997 transferred the emergency powers of this section from ferc to doe . the 76 entities identified in the order ' s attachment are all the entities that have provided power to the iso over the last 30 days . those entities are ordered "" to make arrangements to generate , deliver , interchange , and transmit electric energy when , as , and in such amounts as may be requested by the "" iso , "" acting as agent for and on behalf of scheduling coordinators . "" [ source : doe secretary richardson ' s december 14 , 2000 statement and order ; electric power daily , december 15 , 2000 ] ferc de - federalizes california markets , adopts other structural reforms a summary of the december 15 order and commission discussion at its special meeting today , ferc unanimously approved its eagerly awaited final order reforming the california wholesale markets , adopting the major outlines of its november 1 proposed order and sending back to california the responsibility for addressing state - related matters , as discussed below . at the same time , ferc deferred consideration of retroactive refund issues as well as the imposition of region - wide price caps . ferc reiterated the november 1 conclusions that under certain circumstances , california ratepayers were subjected to unjust and unreasonable power rates due to california ' s "" seriously flawed "" market structure and rules in conjunction with tight demand and supply conditions throughout the west . while all four commissioners supported the order as a consensus - based outcome that appropriately balanced all competing interests , each commissioner expressed reservations with particular aspects of the order . chairman hoecker and comm . breathitt expressed the strongest endorsement , while comms . hebert and massey laid out their positions where they believed the commission had either "" over - reached "" or not gone far enough , just as they did on november 1 , as discussed below . highlights of key actions : ( 1 ) ferc adopted the november 1 proposal to eliminate , effective immediately , the state ' s mandatory requirement that the state ' s investor - owned utilities buy and sell electricity through the px , and allow these utilities to purchase electricity through forward contracts and other alternative mechanisms to manage supply risks . ferc terminated the px ' s rate schedules effective at the close of business on april 30 , 2001 . in effect , as chairman hoecker stated , the order de - federalizes 60 percent of the california wholesale market established under the state ' s restructuring law , returning ratemaking authority over company - owned generation to the california public utilities commission ( cpuc ) . ( 2 ) ferc modified the effective period of the november 1 $ 150 / mwh "" soft cap "" proposal , limiting its application through april 2001 , whereupon a "" comprehensive and systematic monitoring and mitigation program which incorporates appropriate thresholds , screen and mitigation measures "" must be in place . in a related move , ferc ordered a technical conference early next year to develop such a program by march 1 , 2001 , so that these measures can be place by the may 1 , deadline . in a major modification , ferc revised the refund conditions to clarify that while certain refund conditions will continue to apply , unless ferc issues written notification to the seller that its transaction is still under review , refund potential on a transaction will close after 60 days . as proposed , however , supply bids in excess of $ 150 will be prohibited from setting the market - clearing price for all bidders and sellers bidding above $ 150 / mwh will be required to report their bids to ferc on a confidential , weekly basis and provide certain cost support . ( 3 ) ferc adopted the november 1 proposal to require the establishment of independent , non - stakeholder governing board for the iso . the iso governing board must relinquish their decision - making power and operating control to the iso management on january 29 , 2001 . a future order will set procedures for discussion with state representatives on the board selection process . ( 4 ) in a major modification , ferc adopted a $ 74 / mwh "" price benchmark "" for assessing prices of five - year energy supply contracts . this benchmark will be used in assessing any complaints regarding justness and reasonableness of pricing long - term contracts . to facilitate prompt negotiation of longer term power contracts at reasonable rates , ferc announced that it will hold a settlement conference with market participants . ( 5 ) ferc adopted the november 1 proposal to require market participants to schedule 95 percent of their transactions in the day - ahead market and instituting a penalty charge for under - scheduling ( in excess of five percent of hourly load requirements ) , in order to discourage over - reliance on the real - time spot market . ( 6 ) ferc directed the iso and the three investor - owned utilities to file generation interconnection standards . ( 7 ) ferc affirmed the longer - term measures proposed in the november 1 order , including submission of a congestion management design proposal by april 2 , 2001 . ( 8 ) ferc deferred resolving key issues , including establishing new iso board selection procedures , developing appropriate market monitoring measures and negotiating protective orders associated with data collection . ( 9 ) ferc reiterated its november 1 call to california policy makers there to resolve state issues , such as : ( 1 ) immediately implementing the availability of day ahead markets for power purchases ; ( 2 ) development of demand responses ; ( 3 ) siting of generation and transmission ; and ( 4 ) assurance of sufficient reserve requirements . commissioner responses comm . hebert reluctantly concurred , calling the final order a "" missed opportunity "" to , among other things , send appropriate signals for new generation siting and conservation . reiterating his november 1 concerns , hebert recounted the remedial remedies that he maintained the commission should and should not have adopted . while expressing pleasure at the tone of the order ( "" balanced and considerate "" ) , the bid certainly reversal , and the role reserved for the state in the selection of the new iso board , hebert nonetheless objected to the benchmark prices established in the order , which he maintained appeared to be unreasonably low . hebert faulted the commission for not attempting to reconcile the instant order with the november 8 order approving the ca iso ' s emergency $ 250 / mwh "" soft cap "" proposal . hebert ended by challenging the cpuc to do what it can to encourage utilities there to forward contract , including easing the existing prudence review requirements . comm . breathitt endorsed the order , reiterating her support for progress towards open and competitive markets . she noted that the order properly "" walked the line "" by taking all of the competing interests into account , calling it less than ideal , but a step in the right direction . she also concentrated her remarks on the importance of creating stability which will be accomplished by encouraging long term contracts and the implementation of the $ 150 / mwh breakpoint . additionally she mentioned that any price below the $ 74 / mwh benchmark will be presumed just and reasonable . comm . massey concurred , but prefaced his remarks by expressing sympathy for california ratepayers , stating that he felt that market power had been exercised , that prices were not just and reasonable and that the marketers had profited too much at the expense of others in the market . he warned that , as he understood the legal precedents , the federal courts were poised to grant cost recovery relief to the retailers which would then be passed on to consumers . on the positive side , he approved of the de - federalization of 60 % of the market and the creation of long term contracts . however , he emphasized that california regulators must now take the responsibility of creating more generation and transmission . in the long term , comm . massey hoped that solutions could be reached starting with a technical conference and that the market would have rules more like pjm . finally , comm . massey articulated what he would have liked to have done differently . he stated that he disagreed with the fact that there is not enough evidence to show that market power existed and he pointed to the on - going investigation . he also disagreed with the $ 150 / mwh breakpoint , preferring instead a hard price per generator . the commissioner said he would have set the long term benchmark for only two years instead of five and that he would have opened a section 206 investigation in the west . finally , he stated that he would have liked to address the issue of refunds . chairman hoecker began his comments by saying that the commission was forced to act and act quickly because the stakes are so high . he feels that it is now time for the state regulators and markets to act . he noted that by shrinking the cal px , the responsibility is now with the cpuc to fashion the long term contracts and that hopefully we will exit this situation with the least amount of damage to the utilities . in regards to suggestions for a regional price cap , the chairman stated that this would not work due to the fact that the commission has no jurisdiction over bonneville , wapa and the public power producers and that there is no spot market in the northwest . however , he did urge secretary richardson to convene a conference in order to address regional issues . finally , in conceptually addressing the california situation , the chairman stated that competition or "" deregulation "" did not fail in california , but that there never was competition in california .",0
"Subject: alex tartakovski as you may know , we are trying to schedule an interview for alex tartakovski in houston this week . i am copying everyone involved because i wont be able to coordinate this tomorrow . we just brought our new daughter home today and my wife is yelling at me to get out of my office . i just found out that thursday & friday are bad days for him , so wednesday is the only day to do it this week . he would come down tuesday night and fly out wednesday evening . it ' s probably easiest for him to arrange his flight , but he will need a hotel and transportation from the airport . i gave him donna ' s phone number for help . i assume the hyatt would be best . his home number is 215 - 702 - 3705 and during the day his cellular is 267 - 981 - 5425 . by way of background , i plan to bring in 3 people from outside the company to fill in some of the "" vacants "" in my group ' s org chart . the 3 areas of specialization that are needed to execute the business plan are ( 1 ) coordination of origination , ( 2 ) deal pricing and underwriting , and ( 3 ) modeling and portfolio management . alex is the perfect person for # 3 . he has the deepest knowledge of probability of anyone i know and is efficient at building analysis models , which will be a big job in this business because portfolio management needs to be redefined in real time due to the lumpiness of insurance contracts and the lack of any historical methods for evaluating these risks . development of pricing models will be a joint effort between "" my "" group and the research dept because this will need to draw on the expertise in research as well as being a realtime activity as new deals are being structured . i want to encourage joint work between vasant / amitava and alex because his background and expertise is compatible with research . over the past 2 years , alex and i spent a lot of time developing new electricity spot pricing methodology and this is one area where he excels . i would expect that he would be a valuable resource in research as well , and so i would like for him to be able to meet with vince is possible . ( this could possibly be done when vince is in philadelphia next week if there is time - ( ? ) ) depending on what work needs to be done in the future , i could see him working both on pricing research and this specific business unit . i have attached alex ' s resume . i assume he would be manager level , but i ' m not sure of this . this doesnt necessarily come across in the resume , but the skills that are useful to us are : probability / statistical model development development of theoretical pricing methodology excellent computer programming skills database development and data analysis he has the best understanding of the nerc reliability data format outside of mike curley , the nerc data manager . designed and wrote the code for the pricing model used by ace power products for deal pricing and porfolio mgmt . excellent understanding of options pricing methodology and its application to hedging insurance portfolios . if you want to get into superconductor trading , he can design the standards . can beat me at atari battlezone ( as well as being able to navigate a real tank through a minefield ) . one objective of this meeting in houston is to make him feel comfortable with the organization ( with which you did such a good job for me ) and to give him confidence that he will be able to do state - of - the - art pricing research in the most innovative company in the world . he is also interviewing for a job in morgan stanley ' s equity dept . we will also arrange a meeting with per in ny , but i would like to be in the office for that , so we can do that next week . please call me @ 610 - 996 - 2522 if there are any questions . i may not pick up but i will reply to voicemail promptly . i ' m up 24 hours this week anyway . thanks , - - dave",0

"Subject: re : option p & l brad , i was extreamly busy yesterday . sorry for answing your question till now . although i am not exactly sure how the system handle gamma , this is what i think the system is doing : curve shift = today ' s price - yesterady ' s price p / l due to curve shift = today ' s market value using today ' s price curve ( with everything esle the same as yesterday ' s ) - yesterday ' s market value using yesterday ' s price curve . so p / l due to curve shift contains both delta and gamma and higher order terms . we then use theoretical gamma ( meaning option model gamma : 0 . 5 * gamma * ( price change ) 2 ) for gamma contribution and ? define delta = curve shift - theoretical gamma . ? ? therefore , the gamma may not be very accurate to explain the delta change , ? especially when you have big price change due to higher order contribution . ? ? let me know your thoughts on this . ? ? ? best wishes , ? ? zimin ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? brad horn 10 / 12 / 2000 07 : 11 am ? ? to : zimin lu / hou / ect @ ect , stinson gibner / hou / ect @ ect ? cc : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect , vladimir gorny / hou / ect @ ect , robert ? shiring / hou / ect @ ect , jay knoblauh / hou / ect @ ect ? subject : option p & l ? ? gentleman : ? the erms system , as you know , has an excellent capability for ? decomposing option p & l into the following components : ? ? new deals ? curve shift ? gamma ? vega ? theta ? rho ? drift ? 2 nd order adjustments ? ? what i dont understand is the gamma component which is reported in dollars . ? the unit of measure suggests that incremental changes in a contract position ? is being associated with specific prices . these prices are the effective buy ? or sell prices associated with the dynamic delta position . ? ? stated differently , the standard taylor expansion has incorporated a price ? variable in such a way as to convert the unit of measure from gamma ' s ? standard contract count to total gamma dolalrs . this is something i dont ? understand . to date , inquiries to the risk management accounting group has ? further revealed that the gamma component of p & l is not well understood . ? ? this is what concerns me : bridgeline has 2 books with option exposures ( nymex ? and gas daily ) . both books dynamically hedged its positions during ? yesterdays large price move and , through anticipitory hedging in advance or ? during the large price move , secured sufficient coverage to neutralize ? expected changes in delta . however , our p & l from our underlying position did ? not offset our gamma p & l . consequently , i have to ask why ? im hoping that a ? brief look at the why gamma dollars are calculated may reveal something which ? will better guide our hedging decisions . ? ? any help is appreciated ? ?",0

b ) chemicals , plastics and refined products ) we have asked jim ajello to lead the coverage activities in this business . this group will be responsible for the provision of innovative products and services in the chemicals and refined products industries ; c ) non - integrated industrials ) bruce garner , formerly leader of bankers trust , s global metals and mining group in london , has joined ena to lead the coverage activities in this business . this group will be responsible for the provision of innovative products and services for the metals and mining , heavy manufacturing , industrial gases , fertilizers , transportation , textiles and glass manufacturing industries . midstream coverage / origination a ) eastern coverage / origination ) this group , activities will focus on energy , finance and power development solutions for electric and gas utilities , municipals , co - ops and energy service companies in the eastern interconnect . we have asked janet dietrich to assume the leadership of this group ; b ) western coverage / origination ) this group , s activities will focus on energy , finance and power development solutions for electric and gas utilities , municipals , co - ops and energy service companies in the wscc . they will also continue to manage all qualified facilities ( qf ) restructuring opportunities in the western u . s . we have asked chris calger to assume the leadership of this coverage group . chris will relocate to portland from calgary where he currently leads the canadian downstream origination efforts ; c ) ipp merchant coverage / origination ) this group , s activities will focus on the provision of structured energy , finance and asset solutions for the emerging merchant power generators who control large portfolio , s of merchant power generation either through development or acquisition . we have asked mike miller to assume the leadership of this group . in addition , mike will continue to manage the power development activities in the eastern interconnect ; d ) eastern qf restructuring ) this group will focus on the qf restructuring opportunities in the eastern interconnect including the existing restructuring and re - capitalization of the east coast power assets . we have asked dave duran to assume the leadership of this business . greg blair , formerly of enron asia , s development group , doug clifford , formerly of citizens power , and dick lydecker , formerly of cogen technology , will join this newly formed business . 2 ) commercial transactions : the commercial transactions group ( ctg ) , co - headed by ray bowen and jeff donahue , was formed to provide a centralized resource for the execution of transactions within ena ) and thereby , improve ena , s efficiency in executing transactions and free - up the origination groups to increase their intensity of client coverage . ctg consists of six primary functions : transaction development , capital structuring and portfolio management , commodity structuring and transportation , transactional support / accounting , technical analysis and upstream asset management . the transaction development group will be responsible for deal leadership , execution and optimization of all aspects of a transaction in conjunction with the originator . the function will be divided into four teams , each of which will be dedicated to between two and four origination groups . this dedication to specific groups should provide a closer link , better service and greater accountability with the origination groups ; however , the ctg resources are designed to be a fungible and flexible resource allocated to the highest value transactions across the coverage functions : a ) midstream transaction development will be dedicated to the eastern and western coverage / origination groups . the senior members of this group include billy lemmons , george mccormick , erin norris and russ porter . billy lemmons joined enron in 1992 . most recently , he was the vice - president of capital structuring and risk management for ees . russ porter joins us today from dynegy where he was a manager with responsibilities for power origination . b ) downstream transaction development will be dedicated to ena , s industrial origination efforts in pulp and paper , petrochemicals and refining , environmental energy , metals and mining and other industries as coverage is established . the senior members of this team include rodney malcolm , jay boudreaux , finley biggerstaff and chris helfrich . we anticipate announcing two to four more additions to this team within the next few weeks . c ) generation transaction development will be dedicated to the ipp merchant services and power plant development and qf restructuring groups . the senior members of this team include thomas suffield , andy kelemen , kelly mahmoud and john house . thomas suffield joined enron in 1996 . most recently , he was the vice - president of origination for the latin american group in azurix . we anticipate announcing two more additions to this team within the next few weeks . d ) upstream transaction development will be dedicated to the producer finance , coal and gas assets groups . the senior members of this team include brad dunn , john curtin and chris hilgert . we hope to announce the addition of at least one vp to this group prior to yearend . ray bowen will have primary oversight responsibilities for the upstream and downstream transaction development teams with jeff donahue having primary responsibilities for the midstream and generation teams . andrea reed will continue to head capital structuring and portfolio management : all junior commercial resources within the transaction development teams will have dual responsibilities to both their transaction development teams and to the capital structuring group . the remaining four groups within ctg will remain largely unchanged . in addition , the origination and the transaction development teams and their respective origination groups will be located together . we believe that these changes will significantly enhance our market coverage and industry knowledge in all ena , s markets particularly in the industrial markets . it will also provide a closer partnership and accountability between the coverage / origination groups and the ctg groups . please help us in continuing to build on the success we have enjoyed in north america by working with us to implement these changes .",0

"Subject: organizational changes we are making a number of significant organizational changes . these changes are intended to accomplish four key objectives : first , we need to realign all our wholesale businesses around the successful business model developed over the last decade in north america and europe . this model relies on extensive physical and transactional networks built around a relatively small strategic asset position . second , we need to significantly streamline corporate reporting relationships . particularly with joe sutton , s departure , the ability to directly manage the day - to - day activities of 15 independent business units has become increasingly difficult . third , we need to accomplish these changes without , in any way , compromising the ongoing profitability of all our businesses and without delaying or hindering our effort to monetize a significant portion of our lower - yielding asset positions . and fourth , as always , we need to take advantage of the reorganization to redeploy our talent into our highest value opportunities . enron wholesale services today , we are forming enron wholesale services ( ews ) which will consolidate our global wholesale businesses . the closer alignment of our wholesale businesses will accomplish the following : ( 1 ) enhanced communication and coordination across business units , ( 2 ) more rapid deployment of people to higher valued opportunities , ( 3 ) more effective prioritization of opportunities across the wholesale business , and ( 4 ) more rapid extension of enron , s wholesale business model and capabilities into new industries and markets . enron wholesale services will include our current north american , european ( including japan and australia ) , global markets , and industrial markets operations , and will be expanded to include enron , s net works business unit as well as a new unit ) enron global assets . in addition , enron , s merchant businesses outside of north america and europe will be integrated into this new structure as described below . mark frevert , currently chairman of each of our wholesale units , will assume the role of chairman and ceo of enron wholesale services . greg whalley , currently chairman and ceo of enron net works , will join mark in the office of the chairman as president and chief operating officer . providing further impetus for these organizational changes , several of our international business unit leaders have elected to move into new leadership positions : rebecca mcdonald , currently ceo of enron apachi , will join ews as president and ceo of enron global assets . enron global assets will have responsibility for managing all of enron , s existing energy asset portfolio outside of north america and europe . joining rebecca in the office of the chairman as coo will be jim hughes , currently coo of enron apachi . rebecca and jim will report to the ews office of the chairman . sanjay bhatnagar , currently ceo of enron india , has joined ebs as ceo for the middle east and asia region . sanjay will be responsible for building our broadband business in this region and the current ebs team in this region will report to sanjay . in this role , sanjay will report to the ebs office of the chairman . in addition , sanjay will continue to remain responsible for enron , s wholesale energy business in india and will transition this business into enron global assets in the near future . diomedes christodoulou , currently co - ceo of enron south america , has joined ebs as chief commercial officer . diomedes will be located in london and will focus his origination activities on global opportunities , with near term attention to the wholesale and enterprise sectors . diomedes will report to the ebs office of the chairman . jim bannantine , currently co -

"Subject: re : hdaf seminar topics folks : i have tentatively set the date for our first round - table discussion for wednesday , december 20 th at 3 : 00 pm - 4 : 30 pm . the room , eb 3268 , will be available from 3 : 00 to 5 : 00 pm . if any of you have an issue with the date , please let me know by day ' s end . professor don kouri of the physics department of the university of houston will start with an informal 30 - 45 minute presentation ( see appended abstract below ) of his work and will then lead a discussion as well answer questions that we may have . professor kouri , please let me know if you have any requirements for audiovisual or other equipment . this excerpt from a previous correspondence provides an insight to the subject of our meeting : [ . . . ] topics to be discussed at a small ` ` roundtable ' ' format meeting , are : 1 . hdafs for data analysis , including ` ` gap - filling ' ' , data extrapolation , denoising , mathematical manipulations of digital data ( e . g . , taking derivatives , applying functions of differential operators to digital data , etc . ) 2 . hdafs as the basis of numerical algorithms for solving nonlinear partial differential equations , particularly for equations for which existing methods encounter stability problems . there are certainly other areas of interest and applications of the hdafs but i think that even trying to do both of the above in a single meeting would be difficult . of course , in this first meeting we would focus on general aspects of the hdafs that make them robust for such applications . if , however , you have other topics in which you are interested , i am willing to focus on them .

"Subject: possible rtp conference dear mr . kaminski : thank you for talking with me about a possible rtp conference . i would like to include some discussions of what has been learned in other industries . as i indicated , frank wolak suggested that i contact you . in discussing power markets with frank and other colleagues at stanford and epri , it seems quite evident that real - time pricing for retail customers is the "" forgotten resource "" in more efficient power markets . there seems to be a lot of confusion about what rtp means and it also seems that many researchers need to address some practical but important problems . i was asked whether a group like stanford ' s emf might explore this topic and give it the visibility that would have it considered more seriously by policymakers . frank thought that you might be someone who could help me structure a useful approach and who might also see whether enron could become a major sponsor . i was hoping that this issue was sufficiently important to enron that the company might consider providing $ 25 , 000 . as you may appreciate , it requires some thought and effort to make sure that the product of the conference is widely circulated among key government groups . i would be very interested in hearing from you if you can provide ideas and recommendations for people ( perhaps yourself or a colleague ) to participate . i would also appreciate any consideration by enron of providing funding for this effort . thank you , hill huntington - retail notes . rtf hillard g . huntington emf - an international forum on energy and environmental markets voice : ( 650 ) 723 - 1050 408 terman center fax : ( 650 ) 725 - 5362 stanford university email : hillh @ stanford . edu stanford , ca 94305 - 4026 emf website : http : / / www . stanford . edu / group / emf /",0

"Subject: alp proposal carrie , i am sending you , as promised , the draft of my proposal . please , let me know if it meets your requirements . i shall be glad to revise it and send you the final version . vince kaminski * * * * * * * * * * one of the most important trends in the energy industry during the last year was proliferation of electronic , internet based , trading platforms for wholesale markets and for retail operations . websites such as www . houstonstreet . com and www . altranet . com provide facilities for matching buyers and sellers . the website operated by enron corp . ( enrononline ) represents an alternative solution under which enron acts as a principal in every transaction . on the retail ? side , many retail e - commerce companies offering auctions , reverse auctions and platforms for creation of buyers , clubs challenge incumbent utilities . the objective of this project is to evaluate the impact of e - commerce ( both at the wholesale and retail levels ) on the energy industry . the study will start with comparative analysis of different wholesale trading and retail e - commerce business models and evaluation of their long - term viability . the next step will be assessment of the impact of e - commerce on price dynamics , profit margins and the level of competition in different energy markets . a separate section will be devoted to analysis of reaction of companies and organizations affected by e - commerce ( incumbent utilities , organized exchanges , energy brokers ) to the new competitive threat , and different strategies they implement to meet the challenge . organized exchanges have accelerated in many cases the transition to screen - based trading that has been already replacing open outcry technology . power and natural gas marketers have created alliances ( with other industry players , software companies and electronic exchanges ) to create their own trading platforms . gas and electric utilities embarked on development of vertical and horizontal e - commerce platforms , offering services to households and other companies in the energy industry . the critical question is how quickly different companies should react to the competitive threats and how fast they should exploit opportunities created by the internet based economy . it ' s quite obvious that the internet revolution will change the energy industry ' s landscape during the next few years . the objective of the project is to provide answers to the questions posed above , based on the currently available information . additionally , the participants should come up with fallback strategies the energy companies should implement in case the currently ? expected trends fail to materialize . _",0

"Subject: re : short - sell vs exercise chonawee , as i have pointed out , short - selling the stock may be a bad decision because of tax implications ( ignoring the legal aspects ) . suppose the strike is $ 70 and you were granted an atm option . you sell short at $ 70 ten lots ( one lot = 100 shares ) . the price goes to $ 100 . you lose $ 30 x 1000 = $ 30 , 000 on your short position . option exercise gives you $ 30 , 000 . this is before taxes . you pay taxes on your option income ( it ' s treated as ordinary income ) . the tax is 28 % x $ 30 , 000 = $ 8 , 400 . you can use only $ 3 , 000 of your loss against ordinary income . this saves you only $ 840 in taxes . of course , if you have capital gains , you can use losses on your option position as an offset . the remaining part of your capital loss is carried forward and you get the tax benefits over time ( less the time value of money ) , assuming you have income in the future ( or capital gains ) . not so good . by the way , valuation and optimal exercise of employee stock options is a very interesting and difficult problem . vince chonawee supatgiat @ enron 07 / 10 / 2000 11 : 40 am to : stinson gibner / hou / ect @ ect , vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect cc : subject : short - sell vs exercise below is my writing that was originally planned to post somewhere . it explains how to handle a special type of call options which can be exercised but cannot be sold . ( as we know that it is never optimal to exercise a call option before its maturity ) . however , after taking vince ' s comments on the ordinary income / capital loss tax offsetting issue , i think this is not a good article anymore . i guess i could just throw this article away . : - ) - chonawee short - selling is better than exercising your employee stock options in general , the sensible time to exercise your employee stock option is when you speculate that ene is going down or its growth rate is extremely low . in fact , when exercising the options , you are speculating that ene would never reach this point ( plus interest ) again during the 10 years maturity date or until you leave the company . if you do not anticipate that , you should hold on to your options because you can gain higher profit by delaying your exercise . however , if you believe that ene is reaching its peak . then , instead of exercising the options , you should short - sell ( or sell ) the stocks in that amount . after short - selling , when you feel that the stock starts to go up , you can buy them back ( to cover ) , make profit , and still keep the options . on the other hand , if the stock does not go down as expect , you can exercise the options to cover your short position anytime . let us take a look at a simple case where there are no taxes , no dividends , and zero risk - free rate . suppose that ene follows a simple sample path as follow if you exercise 100 ene options with a grant price of 45 when ene reaches 70 , you would earn ( 70 - 45 ) * 100 = $ 2 , 500 . but if you short sell 100 ene at 70 , no matter how much ene is in the future , you can exercise the options to cover the short position and still earn ( 70 - 45 ) * 100 = $ 2 , 500 . the advantage of short - selling comes when ene at the period 2 is 60 . at this point , you can cover your short position , get ( 70 - 60 ) * 100 = $ 1 , 000 , and still keep your options or you can exercise the options and gain $ 2 , 500 . that is , you still keep the flexibility of your options when you short - sell . in conclusion , the only sensible time to exercise your employee stock options is to cover your short position .",0

"Subject: stephen bennett stephen bennett , professional meteorologist , was hired into the research group in september of this year as a specialist based on salary alignment criteria . in retrospect , and upon review , he should have been hired on as a senior specialist . after coming on board . it rapidly became apparent that stephen was clearly an "" under hire . "" he is well - deserving of an immediate promotion ( really more of a correction ) and pay raise , to be made retroactive at least to the lst of this month . this memo outlines the circumstances surrounding this hiring error and provides detailed justifications for this retroactive "" promotion . "" at the time of the interview process , there was no position in enron designated as "" professional meteorologist . "" in fact , the most recent similar hire prior to that date was jose marquez , also a professional meteorologist , who was hired in , based on salary alignment criteria , as a manager . while functionally , both these men are meteorologists , enron has no such job classification . compounded by the urgency in bringing on additional professional expertise in short time order , it was difficult to peg the proper enron classification appropriate for this new position . this original uncertainty and resulting misplacement of stephen into the specialist category , rather than the senior specialist category , needs to be corrected at this time . although a "" new - hire "" to enron , stephen bennett has extensive work experience . he has worked as a professional meteorologist at both the weather services corporation in boston and at the weather channel in atlanta . he came to enron well - referenced by both those organizations , needing no further training and only minimal supervision . once aboard here in houston , stephen immediately demonstrated the core enron values with our unique sense of urgency . after only a week , he assumed responsibilities normally reserved for someone actually at even a manager level - he was assigned and fully took over the critical afternoon weather briefings to the gas traders . this includes analysis and report preparation as well as presentation . also in the presentation arena , he now regularly briefs various desks in the morning and throughout the day . stephen is a master of communication and particularly adept at conveying what through other messengers might otherwise seem confusing or ambiguous . stephen has also demonstrated an unusually high level of self - initiative . he designed , implemented , and now maintains several sub - sites on the research web page which he tailored to various customers - in specific : the weather derivatives team , the agricultural team , and most recently , the crude and liquids team . i have recently assigned stephen to spearhead our conversion and major upgrade of this web page . these above described accomplishments are above and beyond stephen , s regular duties which include starting work at 5 am daily , reliably and without fail , to assemble and prepare our trader , s weather report . recently , with the advent of extended hours for both nymex and enrononline , stephen voluntarily on his own accord , assists in our new sunday weather support effort . as his supervisor , fully cognizant of his already standard 50 + hour work week , i do not solicit , but readily accept , this above and beyond expectations assistance . in review , the circumstance which resulted in this under hire condition was enron , s immediate need for a non - standard , fairly unique professional - a meteorologist , coupled with stephen , s desire to work for our company in spite of the absence of a hierarchy which included the exact entitled professional title reflecting his chosen career path . . once hired , stephen has clearly demonstrated through contribution and performance that he is well - deserving of this immediate and retroactive promotion .",0

"Subject: short term private firm model : static historical snapshot + performance data for model development mike , scott , eric , after brainstorming and discussing further on data here , we think that our final specifications for modelling data requirement need to be as follows : we need bankrupt , default and nondefault ( which covers nonbankrupt ) accounts with 4 quarterly observation snapshots and 12 months performance following the latest snapshot . monthly performance indicator need to be available for the entire 12 months performance period . we will need all the bankrupt and default accounts and comparable sample of good accounts with weights . for the purpose of model validation , we will need data with above specs covering 16 months of performance . this means that we will need rolling ( 4 quarterly snapshots + 12 months performance ) data for 4 monthly shifts : input snapshots performance 1999 march end , 1999 june end , 1999 september end , 1999 december end 12 month end performance for jan 2000 through dec 2000 1999 feb end , 1999 may end , 1999 august end , 1999 november end 12 month end performance for dec 1999 through nov 2000 1999 jan end , 1999 apr end , 1999 july end , 1999 october end 12 month end performance for nov 1999 through oct 2000 1998 december end , 1999 mar end , 1999 june end , 1999 september end 12 month end performance for oct 1999 through sep 2000 we will need bankruptcy chapterwise indicator , if available during the performance period . our definition of default is either bankruptcy or 90 + days delinquency on any trade credit . we have also discussed the cost aspect and we think considering the big picture , it makes sense to spend the extra amount to get the right data for analysis . please let me know your thoughts . this will require d & b to give us a modified quote and we could possibly move forward quickly . regards , amitava",0

"Subject: sr . director position vince : as you requested , i have obtained some information from norma relating to the salary parameters of the sr . director position . the minimum salary is $ 83 , 800 , and the maximum is $ 168 , 000 ( huge range , isn ' t it ? ) . however , norma did ask me to bring a couple of things to your attention : the lowest salary of a vp in your group is currently $ 140 , 000 , and the average director ' s salary in your group is $ 120 , 000 . those numbers narrow the range considerably . of course , there is no equity issue since there is no other senior director in your group . hope this information helps , molly",0

"Subject: fund raising for mit sloan school dear vince , please find the following description of the program that i would like to raise additional funding for . i will follow up today with a phone call to answer any questions you may have . as always we appreciate your time and support . thanks , jozef the eastern european students at mit sloan school of management are preparing an eastern european week to be held in march 2001 . the one - week long program will familiarize our classmates with many of the countries that are going through the post communist transformation . as you well know , eastern europe has a great deal of opportunities for many companies . unfortunately , it also presents many obstacles that make most of the opportunities difficult to capture . because we believe that we can help to eliminate some of these obstacles , we want to bring the eastern european experience to mit sloan school of management . familiarizing the future business leaders with the countries is only one step toward reforming eastern europe , but we believe it is worth our time and effort . during the week , we plan to bring series of lectures addressing the business environment in eastern europe . we want to emphasize especially the success stories from eastern europe . such companies as enron , volkswagen , exxonmobil , gm , and ge have entered the eastern european market and show commitment to stay in it . in at least one panel discussion with academic experts and industry participants we hope to let everyone know that eastern europe is a real place for business . in addition to the educational activities , we are preparing number of cultural events that will introduce the culture of this area . the scope of our program depends greatly on the funds we will be able to raise from our sponsors . in return , we plan to advertise our sponsors in every activity we will do . we will make banners and any other appropriate advertising as desired by the sponsor . should a sponsor be willing to send a speaker for the panel discussion or to give a speech / lecture we would appreciate the enrichment to our program . the advertising will reach nearly 700 sloan students and faculty . in addition , the advertising will reach all newly admitted students , as they will visit our campus for the admit day ( an official program to sell our school to the admitted students ) .",0

' this is clearly a hard problem ( e . g . does this just mean response - time measurement , can it be done by passive means , how should the measurements be presented , etc . ) . in short - rtfm provides a good distributed measuring system for traffic volumes - ippm has concentrated on transport - layer behaviour of the current , best - effort internet . - rmonmib is beginning to consider application - layer measurement ",0

mail . my phone number is ( 617 ) 492 - 9551 . i graduated from princeton university in 1996 ( mathematics ) , and came straight to mit for a ph . d . in operations management at the sloan schoolof management . in my first three years i took all the required coursework in mathematics , optimization , stochastic processes , etc . , as well as a number of courses in psychology ( at mit and harvard ) . i am working with prof . gabriel bitran , and i am interested in the mathematical modeling of service operations . in particular , i am interested in the interaction between customers and companies ( hence the interest in psychology ) . the ( tentative ) title of my phd thesis is "" pricing substitute products on the internet "" , and i am sending you the summary which i sent to tom gros a few weeks ago that will give you an idea of what this research is about . thanks again , and i ' m looking forward to meeting you and your research group next week . paulo pricing substitute products on the internet objective : to develop new tools to decide pricing policies for goods and services sold on the internet . motivation : this research is motivated by the fact that traditional choice and optimization models are not appropriate for internet - related businesses . the technological innovations associated with the internet brought about an overload of information which inevitably affects the ways in which consumers make choices . furthermore , companies have a great deal of influence on how much information consumers can have access to . the problem of pricing substitute products is an important strategic issue faced by internet companies . consumers usually search for generic products ( e . g . vcrs or computers ) without knowing exactly what they will buy . companies can show different products and different prices to each consumer . this type of flexibility was not available until the internet came about . the problem of pricing substitute products is not unique to the internet . the methodology developed by this research should be transferable to a number of other settings , such as pricing services . services are unique , and there are many cases where customers will only buy one of many services offered by a given company . our model will help companies decide which services to offer to which customers and how much to charge for these services . research strategy : our research strategy is to divide the pricing problem into two components which can be combined to generate optimal pricing strategies . these components are choice models and optimization models . choice models : choice models describe how customers make choices . the management literature draws on two main sources for these models : psychology and economics . the common approach in psychology models is to use what are called heuristic elimination methods . these methods consist of the elimination of options based on the sequential elimination of features until only one choice remains . these methods tend to be very context - specific and do not lend themselves very easily to mathematical analysis . economists focus on utility - maximing models that are significantly more mathematically tractable than psychological models . the most common economic model of choice is the logit model . the problem with these types of models is that they are not very accurate reflections of how consumer make choices on the internet . the first step in our research will be to develop choice models that capture the interactions going on between customers and companies on the internet . optimization : traditionally , the optimization problem consists of maximizing revenue over a certain planning horizon . on the internet , the problem of maximizing revenue still exists , but there is also a need to learn about customers . short term profit is based on sales , but long term profit is based on how well you know your customers and are able to retain them . the optimization problem must therefore include a short term component ( sales ) and a long term component ( learning ) .",0

"Subject: california update 5 / 4 / 01 if you have any questions , please contact kristin walsh at ( 713 ) 853 - 9510 . bridge loan financing bills may not meet their may 8 th deadline due to lack of support sources report there will not be a vote regarding the authorization for the bond issuance / bridge loan by the may 8 th deadline . any possibility for a deal has reportedly fallen apart . according to sources , both the republicans and democratic caucuses are turning against davis . the democratic caucus is reportedly "" unwilling to fight "" for davis . many legislative republicans and democrats reportedly do not trust davis and express concern that , once the bonds are issued to replenish the general fund , davis would "" double dip "" into the fund . clearly there is a lack of good faith between the legislature and the governor . however , it is believed once davis discloses the details of the power contracts negotiated , a bond issuance will take place . additionally , some generator sources have reported that some of the long - term power contracts ( as opposed to those still in development ) require that the bond issuance happen by july 1 , 2001 . if not , the state may be in breach of contract . sources state that if the legislature does not pass the bridge loan legislation by may 8 th , having a bond issuance by july lst will be very difficult . the republicans were planning to offer an alternative plan whereby the state would "" eat "" the $ 5 billion cost of power spent to date out of the general fund , thereby decreasing the amount of the bond issuance to approximately $ 8 billion . however , the reportedly now are not going to offer even this concession . sources report that the republicans intend to hold out for full disclosure of the governor ' s plan for handling the crisis , including the details and terms of all long - term contracts he has negotiated , before they will support the bond issuance to go forward . currently there are two bills dealing with the bridge loan ; ab 8 x and ab 31 x . ab 8 x authorizes the dwr to sell up to $ 10 billion in bonds . this bill passed the senate in march , but has stalled in the assembly due to a lack of republican support . ab 31 x deals with energy conservation programs for community college districts . however , sources report this bill may be amended to include language relevant to the bond sale by senator bowen , currently in ab 8 x . senator bowen ' s language states that the state should get paid before the utilities from rate payments ( which , if passed , would be likely to cause a socal bankruptcy ) . according to sources close to the republicans in the legislature , republicans do not believe there should be a bridge loan due to money available in the general fund . for instance , tony strickland has stated that only 1 / 2 of the bonds ( or approximately $ 5 billion ) should be issued . other republicans reportedly do not support issuing any bonds . the republicans intend to bring this up in debate on monday . additionally , lehman brothers reportedly also feels that a bridge loan is unnecessary and there are some indications that lehman may back out of the bridge loan . key points of the bridge financing initial loan amount : $ 4 . 125 b lenders : jp morgan $ 2 . 5 b lehman brothers $ 1 . 0 b bear stearns $ 625 m tax exempt portion : of the $ 4 . 125 b ; $ 1 . 6 b is expected to be tax - exempt projected interest rate : taxable rate 5 . 77 % tax - exempt rate 4 . 77 % current projected blended ir : 5 . 38 % maturity date : august 29 , 2001 for more details please contact me at ( 713 ) 853 - 9510 bill sb 6 x passed the senate yesterday , but little can be done at this time the senate passed sb 6 x yesterday , which authorizes $ 5 billion to create the california consumer power and conservation authority . the $ 5 billion authorized under sb 6 x is not the same as the $ 5 billion that must be authorized by the legislature to pay for power already purchased , or the additional amount of bonds that must be authorized to pay for purchasing power going forward . again , the republicans are not in support of these authorizations . without the details of the long - term power contracts the governor has negotiated , the republicans do not know what the final bond amount is that must be issued and that taxpayers will have to pay to support . no further action can be taken regarding the implementation of sb 6 x until it is clarified how and when the state and the utilities get paid for purchasing power . also , there is no staff , defined purpose , etc . for the california public power and conservation authority . however , this can be considered a victory for consumer advocates , who began promoting this idea earlier in the crisis . socal edison and bankruptcy at this point , two events would be likely to trigger a socal bankruptcy . the first would be a legislative rejection of the mou between socal and the governor . the specified deadline for legislative approval of the mou is august 15 th , however , some decision will likely be made earlier . according to sources , the state has yet to sign the mou with socal , though socal has signed it . the republicans are against the mou in its current form and davis and the senate lack the votes needed to pass . if the legislature indicates that it will not pas the mou , socal would likely file for voluntary bankruptcy ( or its creditor - involuntary ) due to the lack operating cash . the second likely triggering event , which is linked directly to the bond issuance , would be an effort by senator bowen to amend sb 31 x ( bridge loan ) stating that the dwr would received 100 % of its payments from ratepayers , then the utilities would receive the residual amount . in other words , the state will get paid before the utilities . if this language is included and passed by the legislature , it appears likely that socal will likely file for bankruptcy . socal is urging the legislature to pay both the utilities and the dwr proportionately from rate payments .",0

"Subject: introduction vince : as way of introduction , i wanted to write a bit about mars inc . and then about cds , the unit i head . mars is a private company , considered to be the largest privately owned manufacturing company in the world . mars is not in the habit of disclosing its finances , so the best i could do is refer to forbes ' estimate of $ 15 billion annual revenue and to the profit margins of similar companies between 5 - 12 % . mars is in the business of manufacturing confectionery ( m & m , dove bar , skittles , twix , - all ( r ) ) food ( uncle ben rice ( r ) ) pet food ( pedigree , whiskas waltham ( r ) ) and other products . mars has prospered during the years because of a unique philosophy that emphasizes the long term goals of the company . part of the philosophy is to look for win - win solutions with its suppliers , customers and partners . as can be understood from the nature of the company , a large chunk of its expenses goes towards purchasing commodity like products , and hence the history of researching those commodities and the weather that influences their supply and the demand ( people eat less ice cream in the winter and less chocolate in the summer ) . cds has a history of few decades in forecasting weather and has been very successful , with an envious track record , in helping mars get a competitive advantage in these arenas . cds is a global group ( in 4 countries across two continents ) which supports the purchasing function and the corporate at large in these and other arenas . it is a multidiscipline and multinational team with a lot to offer . not having a ready access to the energy markets , and with a risk profile based on manufacturing expertise , mars has decided to look for potential partners in this area . enron presence in the market place certainly makes it an interesting party to talk to . in talking to enron , we are careful to suggest that mars is not committing to anything at this point , and all we are after is to find out if there is an interest to pursue the opportunity we discussed in the future . i am looking forward to our video conference call . kind regards , avi - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - avi i . hauser phd mba cds director 100 international drive mt olive nj 07828 - 1383 + 1 973 691 3664 ( office ) + 1 973 347 8189 ( fax ) + 1 973 727 3622 ( car + slow paging ) hauser @ cdsusa . com",0

"Subject: altos na gas model kim , i know you have been interested in the development of a long term natural gas model for use in the ets revenue management effort . i agree that the ability to model various supply / demand scenarios for north america should prove useful in ets business development efforts , and in particular , in predicting the impact of the new , large alaskan gas supplies on the n . a . pipeline grid . as you know , vince kaminski feels that a software product developed by dale nesbitt ( marketpoint , inc . ) of los altos hills , ca . may be a good choice , and one readily available in a relatively short time . marketpoint has proposed that they work with us in our offices for a week of intensive training and testing , so we can make a more informed decision before ordering the software . they have proposed a charge of $ 12 , 000 , plus expenses , for the one - week session , with that cost applied to the first year ' s subscription price ( approx . $ 55 - 60 m / yr ) should we decide to go forward . the other details ( timing , ene resources required , necessary it interface , etc ) still need to be worked out , but i believe there is generally a consensus to proceed with the test . with my recent relocation to the clean fuels group , i will no longer be responsible for the alaskan pipeline development . however , danny mccarty is pulling together a team consisting of people from nng , nbp and elsewhere in ets to push the project forward . i believe eric gadd will be playing a key role as well . the decision on the long term gas model should appropriately be made by the new project team . i have attached a draft of the proposed marketpoint license agreement . it has not yet been fully reviewed by legal ( or by shelley c . for the "" affiliate "" issues ) . let me know if i can provide any other background or assistance . jng",0
