She comes across as a very smart and highly motivated person. I am planning to go with Mark Palmer to Wharton in October to finalize the deal. Vince From: Jeffrey A Shankman 08/23/2000 06:31 AM To: Jana Giovannini/HOU/ECT@ECT cc: Vince J Kaminski/HOU/ECT@ECT Subject: li sun i've asked vince to get involved with you about getting li into vince's group. this issue needs to be resolved by week's end--we look like we don't have our act together, and that bothers me. especially since we are about to make a significant monetary investment at wharton, and we could have a new wharton recruit disgruntled. vince, can you set up a meeting with you, me and mark palmer to follow up with our meeting with skilling? thanks very much... jeff

Attached are two pieces you may find of interest that address organizational capabilities needed to live the real options story. The first piece, which I wrote with Laura Martin of CSFB, addresses the capabilities needed to carry off the Time Warner / AOL merger. The second piece lays out some rules for strategy creation -- including the requisite capabilities -- in a world of uncertainty. I hope you find these of interest.

I would be very interested in working in that segment for Enron. However, I talked to Sheridan about this oppurtunity and he said that it is probably going to be another six months before I finish my dissertation. So while I am definitely interested, the start date will probably have to be around that time. At any rate, it was a pleasure meeting you again and hopefully once I have defended my dissertation we can discuss employment oppurtunities in greater detail.

To determine this, we would like to provide you with the inputs for a particular deal (as provided by a Global Markets book administrator) and have you recalculate the deal value. We will then compare your results to the values calculated by Global Markets. Two Koch deals have been chosen due to their substantial P/L effect. I have attached the deal data in two forms: (1) the spread option model that Kara Boudreau, Book Administrator EGM, provided and (2) an excel spreadsheet that isolates the 2 deals. If there is anything more that we could provide, please don't hesitate to call me at x30968. Thank you so much for all of your help. Gillian 1. 2.

I hope you got my message. Rob (if you don't know) has been "swiped" by Risk to edit one of the new newsletters - Risk Management Operations - and so no longer works with Books. We were very sad to see him go, but it is a great opportunity for him and nice to see some intelligent internal promotion for a change! Was there anything in particular you needed, Vince? Just to say also that the energy titles (especially MEPR2) have received some excellent reviews at contingencyanalysis.com which may interest you.

Currently I've been working at Aquila Energy in Kansas City as an pricing analyst since July 2000. Since then, I have developed a natural gas storage valuation model applying the swing options (forest method) pricing approach. The price processes would be considered critical for the storage valuation since a trinomial forest is required to value storage. Also the c++ programming using Excel DLL has been developed, too. I attached my resume to this message for your consideration and am looking forward to talking about an opportunity at Enron. My home phone number is 913-649-0578, Dr. Kaminski, I will wait your call in this week as Dr. Lee informed me. If possible, please let me know your expected calling day through the mail. I appreciate your consideration. Thank you very much.

As we have 10 interview rooms available to us and as on 11/3 we currently have nine rooms booked, if Enron wants to move all 8 schedules to 11/3, we probably will not be able to host them on-campus unless [the firm currently holding the rooms] moves off (and there is a possibility of that - this is like a game of dominos). However, Enron could interview off campus, but that is not as convenient for the students and it increases the cost for the employer. If Enron wants to move only one or two schedules to 11/3 for just Comp Finance, we would find a way to accomodate them. Our Recruiting Coordinator, Sally Gould, will do everything she can to make this work for Enron. Please suggest that Enron re-contact her as soon as they know what their preferences are.

Dear Vince, I very much enjoyed speaking with you at lunch, if only briefly, at the &Finance Festival.8 We have more common interests than I realized at first, as I am interested not only in weather derivatives, but also in the financial econometrics of risk management, broadly defined. And moreover, business interests have recently led me to focus on electronic trading and brokerage issues. A quick check of my web page will give you a good idea of the range of my interests; see http://www.stern.nyu.edu/~fdiebold. The upshot: It seems to me that we would both benefit from a more extensive conversation.

I didn't think any of them would be invited to the dinner, and probably none will even come to the presentation. The invitation did elicit one request for the final report though, so maybe it wasn't a complete waste. I didn't realize that the dinner had turned into a box visit. that sounds great. I wish the group could have made it to dinner before the first game, that would have made the whole slumming experience better. Now they'll get the royal treatment at Enron Field. It'll be great.

Skilling" <sreinar@enron.com> cc: Vince J Kaminski <vkamins@ect.enron.com>, "Robert A. Jarrow" <raj15@cornell.edu>, "Robert C. Merton" <rmerton@hbs.edu> Subject: Mr. Jeffrey K. Skilling President and C.O.O., Enron Corp. Dear Jeff, This email is from Robert Jarrow (Cornell) and myself (Joe Cherian). I hope you recall meeting/lunching with Bob Jarrow & me when you keynoted at my 1999 Math Finance Day conference here at Boston University. I wanted to introduce you to SKG Inc., a startup that is focused on providing an innovative service to the electronic trading community. Messers Kuppuswamy Seshadhri, Sriketan Mahanti, and Gaurav Mallik are the principal founders of SKG, Inc. Bob Jarrow and I represent the company's Scientific Advisory Board. Nobel laureate Robert Merton, who also sat on our table during your keynote address, very kindly serves as an ad hoc Senior Advisor to SKG and has been an invaluable resource to SKG, including putting us in touch with JP Morgan. Coincidentally, the C.O.O. of JP Morgan Capital Corp. Ed Colloton, in an April 7 meeting told us he would introduce us to the C.F.O. of Enron Online, whom he knows and at which he felt SKG would have huge value-adding opportunities. However, given Ed's busy travel schedule, I don't believe he has been able to do that yet. Hence this joint decision by Bob Jarrow and myself to send you this email. SKG's solution is to provide dynamic pricing and value maximization in electronic trading of securities/commodities on ECNs and ATSs (Alternative Trading Systems). It achieves this through a process of "strategic negotiation" using automated agents (intelligent software manifestations). Our system should not be viewed as an ECN, but rather as an enhancement to any extant trading system, be it an ECN, ATS, CLOB, NASDAQ, etc. Our initial system design has been conducted for financial instruments trading, e.g. bonds/equities, but our strategy is as much applicable to energy/power instruments trading, high speed communications bandwidth trading, and other web-based commodities trading, which we believe is of interest to Enron Online. SKG is superior to existing solutions in the following way: 1) It considers multiple attributes, e.g., price, time, volatility, bandwidth. (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.

We cannot get our San Antonio hotel on the first weekend in April (as last year). However, we can get the hotel and make all our "fun" arrangements for the second weekend in April. However, this is Easter weekend. The good news is that the room rates are substantially lower because it's a holiday. However, we are concerned that holding the meeting on this particular Friday-Saturday will interfere with family plans such that some or many of you may not be able to attend. My related question to you is this: Does holding the meeting on the second weekend in April (Easter weekend) pose a problem for you? Please give us your thoughts ASAP even if you think you may not be able to attend this year's conference. We need your opinion to guide our decision. Thanks and I hope to see you all again next April (sometime)! John p.s. We are very fortunate to have Enron return as our corporate sponsor again this year. John D. Martin Carr P.

I dont want to be a bother to you. I know you are doing your best to put this together as a go between. As you might suspect, I am in a hurry to put together the right hearing at Enron because MarketPoint is just now being completed--U.S. and world oil and gas and North American electricity. We have just signed up our first web provider (e-Acumen.com), who is preparing to vend our North American electric generation data base over their website. I believe we are an integral part of their offering. It wont be long before MarketPoint needs the capitalization to meet our growing customer needs professionally and quickly, particularly when we sign up one or more vertical portals to vend or offer fundamental forward projections from our models. I a loath to do so without the capitalization and staffing we need. Also, I am loath to do so without the market reach that a partner like Enron could render instantly available. I also would be eager during my next trip to Houston to continue the discussion with you regarding how MarketPoint might benefit Enron directly. I plan to be there the last week in June.

I can attempt to change the presentation date again, however I feel that it would be very unlikely that we are able to get another facility that is near campus. At this point it may be better to plan on making two seperate trips so that we are able to handle both events. Maybe we could combine another presentation in during the same visit. What do you think?

Reviewed by Mark Williams, SVP Risk Management, Citizens Power The long awaited second edition of Managing Energy Price Risk has finally arrived. It has been four years since the first edition was published. During this hiatus, a lot has happened as risk management within the rapidly expanding energy industry has come of age as a respected discipline. The second edition is a rich compilation of papers by a surprisingly representative group of industry leaders, practitioners and academics. The books strength is that it reinforces the fact that risk management principles initially applied to a narrow band of energy commodities can and should be applied across a wide array of energy commodities including electricity. As expected the book does a solid job in capturing an international perspective on the various challenges, which are not isolated to any one continent but are global in scope. It includes a lengthy introduction that effectively frames risk management progress, advancements and innovations that started in the oil markets in the 1970's and migrated to the natural gas and most recently expanding to the electricity industry. Managing Energy Price Risk is comprised of 15 chapters, all of which include an introduction, which minimises the disjointedness that you may expect from a book written by a large number of authors. Other improvements in this second edition include expanded graphics, highlighted panels, detailed appendices and a separate glossary, which provides the reader with additional reference material. In particular the chapter on energy options written by Michael Hampton is a useful primer and provides the reader with a concise explanation of option theory, pricing, basis risk, delta hedging as well as practical guidelines for distinguishing between hedging and pure speculation. For the more advanced reader, the chapter on Energy Exotic Options, written by Vince Kaminski, Stinson Gibner and Krishnarao Pinnamaneni is particularly strong as it outlines the challenges associated with the exotics and effectively documents the latest methods used by leading practitioners in pricing such instruments. Additionally, the chapter on Accounting for Derivative Contracts in the Energy Environment by three consultants from Arthur Anderson, is a well written summary which addresses the numerous tax related issues including a timely discussion on the US Financial Accounting Standards Board's Statement 133 (see EPRM October 1999, page 22). Having this tax information housed in one concise chapter is of great value. The second edition however is not without flaws. In particular, it would have been useful to have more information on the current challenges risk managers are confronted with in the power industry including latest advancements in volatility and correlation estimation techniques. Additional attention could have also been placed on the shortcomings of the current market structure and methods in finding and applying appropriate hedging strategies and instruments. In the fledgling power market, this continues to be one of the primary challenges. In summary, this second edition of Managing Energy Price Risk builds upon the sentinel work laid out in the prior edition and is a valuable reference book for the new recruit or seasoned veteran. It is a welcome edition to any risk management library.

My notation allows originators, managers and quants to communicate unambiguously, while still appreciating the complexity and subtlety of real optionality. I have defined a "diagrammatic grammar" which guarantees that the pricing of the deal follows immediately and automatically from the diagram. I propose to introduce the symbols and grammar, then go on to present some suitable examples of diagrams. If appropriate I'll talk about the links with dynamic programming. (I will need some guidance as to how much technical detail I can go into based on the audience.) All the best, Steve Enron Capital & Trade Resources Corp.

Both the approval of the Large Combustion Plant Directive by EU environment ministers and the agreement on German nuclear phaseout between the German government and industry could involve the early removal of existing, low-cost generating plants from the European power capital stock in the 2010-15 time period and their subsequent replacement by natural gas-fired turbines. **end** Please see attachment for complete Alert.

I appreciate the part-time offer, however, I must admit that I did not find the terms very favorable. Unlike a person who is permamently located in Houston, I would have the inconvenience and cost of commuting between Austin and Houston, and of accomodation both in Austin and Houston. I really would love to work in the Research Group and am sincere about this. I would just hope that you would consider compensating me at manager level so that I can cover transportation, accomodation expenses and more importantly, justify the decision to devote at least half of my time to Enron away from my thesis.

Krishnar has a very strong grasp of what we are doing and how it should be done. Overall Excellent. My interactions with Krishnar have been limited but positive. Krishnar is always positive with a positive attitude to get the job done. Strengths: Very strong analytical skills with a desire to add value. Areas for Improvements I don't understand Krisnar's role (is leading all research people on our floor or just some) well and have had limited interaction with him. {all has been positive when it has ocurred} This suggests that Krishnar might spend more time define what his people are doing and getting feedback about their performance, and developing the project scope better.

Vince Bryan Reinecke@ENRON 07/13/2000 03:13 PM To: Vince J Kaminski/HOU/ECT@ECT cc: Subject: Real Options Theory Thank you very much for your detailed answer to my question on e-Speak. I find this area of study fascinating and would very much like to learn more. It's interesting that you mentioned the Amram/Kulatilaka book because I'm reading it right now! I've talked with my director, Terry Galassini about the possibility of taking your classes this fall and it looks good so far. And I'd like to take you up on your offer of a set of binders on real options and energy industry applications. FYI, I'm a senior engineer in a facility planning group up here in Omaha although I obtained an MBA from the University of Houston a few years back. The concepts of risk/reward and all of the financial tools available to hedge risk in financial markets have always tantalized me in their possible parallels in the gas industry. My recent personal discovery of this area of real option valuation has further piqued my interest. If you could, please add my name as a possible attendee to your fall presentations. Thanks again for your e-Speak dialogue. Bryan Reinecke (402) 398-7622

Top news this week included early findings by credit ratings agency Standard & Poor,s that internationally active banks may find it is cheaper to use the standardised risk management approach to capital management rather than the internal ratings based (IRB) system. Early findings that IRB, as laid out in the Basel Committee's new capital Accord proposals, may cost banks more in terms of capital appears contrary to the +spirit, of the de facto international banking regulator,s proposals. Next week, RiskNews will print exclusive coverage of the International Swaps and Derivatives Association,s (Isda,s) response to Basel as part of our extensive coverage of Isda,s 16th Annual General Meeting in Washington. With consolidation seeming imminent for the plethora of electronic trading platform providers, electronic derivatives trading platform Blackbird,s chief executive Andy Baxter admitted having difficulties encouraging dealers to move away from phone broking. In a separate development, JP Morgan Chase selected multi-bank FX trading portal Atriax as its electronic portal ) a move seen by industry observers as a blow to rival portal FXall, which was strongly backed by the pre-merger JP Morgan. Meanwhile, Citigroup,s top FX salesman Martin Dyer pans to take +time-out, from his post after 20 years, clearing the way for Lars Olesen to be appointed global FX sales manager of Citibank Foreign Exchange in London. Christopher Jeffery Editor, RiskNews Tel: 44 (0)20 7484 9880 E-mail:cjeffery@riskwaters.com PS: RiskNews will send out an additional +special bulletin, next week to alert subscribers to our coverage of Isda 16th Annual General Meeting in Washington.

George, This is the first cut at the problem you gave us, done by my associate Clayton Vernon. Please, feel free to call him with any question. Your friend should check what were the sermons he gave on April 19 and April 25, in 1998 and 1999, respectively. Vince ---------------------- Forwarded by Vince J Kaminski/HOU/ECT on 01/20/2000 02:49 PM --------------------------- Clayton Vernon@ENRON 01/20/2000 10:56 AM To: Vince J Kaminski/HOU/ECT@ECT cc: Subject: Re: Spreadsheet for George Posey Vince- Here is an analysis of the fund giving at the church. First off, it appears from the data that a special "appeal" for fund giving was made (from the pulpit?) on April 19, 1998 and April 25, 1999, (perhaps tied rhetorically into Income Taxes?). Then, by going back and incorporating obvious dates from the calendars for 1997-1999, the following regression analysis is made, where each effect is added independently: giving this Sunday = $4403 + a minor $3 weekly time trend (i.e., multiply by the number of weeks since Jan. 5, 1997) + no pure effect from last week's contributions (i.e., denies first-order autoregressive effects) + $2426 if Easter Sunday or the Sunday nearest Christmas + $9695 if (pastoral appeal) April 19,1998 or April 25,1999 - $340 if the Sunday falls on the weekend of a Monday Federal holiday - $50 if the Sunday following Thanksgiving - $73 if a Summer weekend (June 1 thru August 31) The pure time trend is very small, so an annual projection based on all 3 years data would be for giving to increase only a minor amount ($150) for 2000 assuming a similar appeal for giving is made this April. Clayton
