Subject: Real Options Presentation
Dear Vince,
Thank you for a stimulating presentation about real options at the IIR
conference in New York on Monday the 13th of December. Your explanation of
real
options and it's applications for a number of valuation problems interested me
very much. With reference to our previous conversation I wonder if it is
possible for you to forward the slides from the presentation.
Thank you very much for your help
Regards
Erik

Dear Mr. Kaminski,
It goes without saying that whoever come with you is invited for dinner.
Would you prefer to have dinner on Thursday night or Friday night. I think
it would be better Friday night as we could discuss the presentation.
Sincerely,
Pierre-Philippe Ste-Marie

Richard,

Good afternoon John,
I hope things are well with you. I am writing to update you on the status of
your meetings with Andy Fastow, Ken Lay and Jeff Skilling. I have arranged
the following meeting dates and times with Ken Lay and Jeff Skilling, (I am
still trying to work with Andy Fastow's schedule):
Jeff Skilling
December 4th
2:00 - 3:00 p.m.
Ken Lay
December 4th
3:30 - 4:30 p.m.
Also, I will attempt to schedule the meeting with Andy Fastow for December
4th for convenience - this will also allow us to possibly schedule additional
meetings for the 5th (as needed). I will let you know as soon as I'm
successful.

Pierre-Philippe,
The time of the presentation, 11:30 is fine with me.
I shall arrive Thu evening and I shall get to the hotel by cab. Thanks
for your kind offer to meet me at the airport but I shall be arriving at late
hour
and don't want to inconvenience you. Kevin Kindall from Enron will come with
me.
I shall also need a projector for my M/S Power Point presentation on
"Volatility in the US Power Markets".
I shall be very glad to meet with Duane.

Dear Mr. Kaminski,
The presentation is scheduled on friday the 3rd at 11.30 so that New York
Students can attend.
Would you like me to get you at the airport?
If you want I can also organize a short meeting with professor Seppi which
is very interested in energy derivatives.
My goal is to make your trip to Pittsburgh as pleasant as possible.
Therefore if there is anything I can do to help (I am sounding a little
repetitive...I know) let me know.
Sincerely,
Pierre-Philippe Ste-Marie

Subject: Colored Printer Taj Mahal
Hello everyone.
This memo only applies to the Research group on the 19th floor that use
the colored printer "Taj Mahal".
Vince has requested that I ask each of you to only use the colored printer
"Taj Mahal" for presentations, newsletters, etc. that require at least 90%
of color. These cartridges are very expensive and several times we have
picked up a copy of something that only had color on the first page and it
would be maybe 15-20 pages long. This is not cost effective.
If you have something that has color on the first page, but not on the rest
of the presentation, then please just print the first page on the color
printer
and the rest on "Bandit" or "Wagon".
Your help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
Shirley

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

Stinson,
The spreadsheet below shows the allocations I made for EBS.
The numbers in magenta show percentage allocations,
Of course, Samir and Samer are gone, ad so is Roman.
The problem is that once I give the percentages to accounting they become
fixed for one year.

Today's Focus: Top 10 viruses
---------------------------------------------------------------
By Jason Meserve (write me at [email protected])
To start off the month of November, here is a list of the Top
10 reported viruses for October, courtesy of Sophos:
1. W32/Apology-B.
2. VBS/LoveLet-AS.
3. VBS/Kakworm.
4. W32/Qaz.
5. XM97/Jini-B.

7. WM97/Marker-C.
8. W32/Pretty.
9. (tie) W32/Flcss.
9. (tie) WM97/Thus-T.
Today's bug patches and security alerts:
Microsoft releases patch for "Indexing Services Cross Site
Scripting" vulnerability
We reported this vulnerability in the last edition of the
newsletter - it was another Georgi Guninski find. Microsoft
Internet Information Server contains a security hole that could
allow a malicious user to inject code into a Web page that can
be used to access a remote computer. A similar problem was
discovered a few months ago in a previous version of the
software. For more information:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/fq00-084.asp
Patch available for "Netmon Protocol Parsing" vulnerability
The Network Monitoring tool that ships with Windows NT, 2000
and Microsoft System Management Server contains a flaw that
could allow a malicious user to gain access to the affected
system. The problem resides in Netmon's parsers, which have
several unchecked buffers that can be exploited by sending a
malformed frame to the server. For more information:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/fq00-083.asp
Patch available for "Malformed MIME Header" vulnerability
By passing specially formed MIME headers to Microsoft Exchange
Server 5.5, an external user can crash the server. The system
will need to be rebooted before it will work again. For more
information:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/fq00-082.asp
**********
Red Hat releases patch for kpackage
The kpackage module that comes with Red Hat Linux 7.0 crashes
when files are installed or uninstalled. Patches can be
downloaded from:
ftp://updates.redhat.com/7.0/i386/kpackage-1.3.10-7.i386.rpm
ftp://updates.redhat.com/7.0/i386/kpackage-1.3.10-7j1.i386.rpm
Updated svgalib package available
The svgalib that ships with Red Hat Linux Powertools contains a
bug that causes it to crash when the library is compiled into
other applications. Updates can be downloaded from:
ftp://updates.redhat.com/powertools/7.0/i386/svgalib-1.4.1-12.i386.rpm
ftp://updates.redhat.com/powertools/7.0/i386/svgalib-devel-1.4.1-12.i386.rpm
**********
HP reports vulnerability in dtterm
Hewlett-Packard has released a patch for the dtterm module
after it was discovered the module could be exploited to gain
root access. The alert does not mention how this could be
accomplished. Patches and workarounds can be found at the HP IT
Resource page:
http://itrc.hp.com
**********
Allaire issues patch for JRun DoS vulnerability
After a slew of patches last week for JRun, Allaire has
returned again this week with another patch. This one protects
against possible denial-of-service attacks. By sending
malformed URLs, the Java servlet handler leaks memory and could
consume all system resources. For more information and a patch:
http://www.allaire.com/handlers/index.cfm?ID=18085&Method=Full
**********
FreeBSD reports DoS vulnerability in getnameinfo() function
FreeBSD has issued a patch for the KAME project that fixes a
problem in the getnameinfo() function, a protocol-independent
name resolver library. By sending a malformed request to the
function, it is possible under certain circumstances to crash
the affected server. Patches can be downloaded from:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/CERT/patches/SA-00:63/getnameinfo.patch
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/CERT/patches/SA-00:63/getnameinfo.patch.asc
Top allows reading of kernel memory
The top module, which displays system resource usage, contains
a format string vulnerability that could allow unprivileged
users to execute arbitrary code on the affected FreeBSD
machine. For patches:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/CERT/patches/SA-00:62/top.patch
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/CERT/patches/SA-00:62/top.patch.asc
**********
USSR reports flaw in Ultraseek search engine
USSR Labs is reporting a denial-of-service vulnerability in the
Ultraseek search engine. By sending malformed URLs to port 8765
(Ultraseek's default port) it is possible to crash the search
engine. For more information and links to patches:
http://www.ussrback.com/labs56.html
**********
Today's virus alerts:

previous viruses, WM97/Class-B and WM97/Panther. No other
information was provided in the alert. (Sophos)
Win32/Sonic.B.Worm - A variant of the first Sonic virus, this
one spreads via e-mail and comes with the subject line of "I'm
your poison" and an attachment called "lovers.exe." (Computer
Associates, Sophos)
WM97/Bablas-AS - This Word macro virus infects the Tool/Macro
and Tools/Template menus. When they're accessed, a message will
appear. (Sophos)

AOL 6.0 wreaks havoc with some PCs
AOL 5.0 was an unmitigated disaster for the online giant. Soon
after its release, users began complaining about network
settings getting blown away, key Windows files being rewritten,
and in some cases, PCs becoming utterly inoperable. Some of the
exact same problems are beginning to crop up with AOL 6.0,
launched last week. Network World, 10/31/00.

Subject: RE: Next visit to Houston
Vince,
Good to hear from you and I'm glad you're available. How is Wednesday at
2:30?
I did look at EOL and am not surprised to see its quality. I was unable to
say much about it in my Risk Electricity Hedging and Trading report because
of deadline pressures. How is the site doing? I am intrigued by the
competition for trading platforms and was astonished to hear that Goldman,
Morgan, BP and Shell were going to launch a site to compete with yours. Talk
about a shotgun marriage!
If we have time next week, I could step you through our website --
www.weathereffects.com. I'm very proud of what we've done. I can't give out
a password yet but would be happy to walk through the site with you over the
phone using my password. It's a very ambitious site -- with state-of-the-art
WSI weather (seasonal, 6-10, and day to day) driving a good load model for
PJM and NEPOOL. ESAI contributes oil and gas input price forecasts, capacity
judgments, and "herding" ideas to develop power price forecasts for same
time periods. After one month's full-bore effort, I'm pleased with the
results (e.g., we forecast Nepool onpeak to be $43 and it turned out $46).
Have a great weekend.
Ed

Dear Vince,
I will be returning to Houston during the week of July 10.
ESAI and Weather Services International have launched -- after more than 18
months of R&D -- our service, called Energycast Power Trader and Energycast
Gas Trader, for power traders in Nepool and PJM. I would be happy to review
the service with you as well as take you on a tour of our web site. Are you
available on July 12 - 13?

Vince,
I hope things are well with you and your family.
The reason for contacting you today is to let you know I will be in Houston
next
week between Monday and Wednesday inclusive. If there is an opportunity to
meet
up, probably informally, it would be useful to discuss our continuing
activities
in the areas of Strategy, Value and, increasingly, Real Options.
If you are attending our Energy Symposium, or can meet up, please contact me
at
your convenience. If we do meet, I would also like to introduce you to one of
our senior managers from Houston: George E. Danner. George is a member of
our
US National Strategy team and part of our global network of specialists
working
on real option pricing.
If I do not speak to you before tomorrow - happy Thanksgiving.

Vince,
Last week I was contacted by one of my friends who is very interested in
becoming an Enron employee. He has a PHD and several years research and lab
experience.
Richard is afraid that being a PHD is a dying breed and may need to go back
to school to obtain an MBA. I was wondering if you would mind looking at the
attached resume to assess if you have any interest in Richard, or if you feel
I should encourage him to go back to school. I am unclear as to the
qualifications for your group so I apologize if this request is way off base.

Mr. Kaminsky,
Recently, I read articles published by GARP and monographs in a book
published by GARP. Although they are excellent sources of introduction to
operational risk, none of them have any details on the "how to."
If you know of a good book or book(s) could you recommend one?
Thank you.

Subject: Possible hire?
Dear Vince,
A faculty member in our department, namely Dr. Keith Baggerly,
is interested in pursuing other employment. He is currently an
assistant professor in our program and a highly valued member of
our department. We hate to lose him, however his interest has shifted
from the academic arena to one of high level but practical application
and development of statistical methodologies including
stochastic modeling.
Keith is actually a graduate of our Ph.D. program; he was in the same
group of students as Martin Lawera. Keith spent several years at Los
Alamos National Lab before we recruited him back to Rice. He has
been on our faculty now for three years and it is my expectation
(and that of my colleagues) that if he remained he would receive
tenure.
Keith has a strong interest in financial models and the background
to support his interest. He is also a leading expert in statistical
computing, empirical likelihood, categorical models and areas
of statistics falling under the general bailiwick of "data mining".
He is a creative thinker.
I do not know if there are possibilities for Keith within your group,
however
I believe it is an excellent match of talent and objectives. Would you
have an interest in speaking with Keith? If so, I will suggest that he
contact you.
Best regards,
Kathy Ensor

target audience is energy traders).
Attached you will find a draft program agenda for your review. Please let

event. In particular, we are looking for someone to talk about weather
derivatives.
I appreciate you taking the time to review the conference schedule and I

It's been a while since I put this together. Some assumptions, such as those
about the current VAR methodology may not be correct. But my ideas and the
math involved are hopefully reasonable. Let me know if you have any questions.

The five of us will be riding together for the May 2 short course. Perhaps
leaving at 9am would be best to give sufficient time for lunch before the

everybody?

Margaret,
First of all I apologize for not sending you the information to complete the

vacation, maybe I spent 3 or 4 full working days in the office in the last 4
weeks. Now that I am going through my to do list I cannot find that page

On the other hand I was wondering if maybe within Enron possibly at Info
Central or with one of your friends at the trading desk you could get me a
copy of a book titled: Chicago Board of Trade Commodity
Trading Manual
ISBN: 1579580025
Publisher: Fitzroy Dearborn Publishers, Incorporated
Pub. Date: December 1997
It si not in stock at the dot com libraries and it will take them a long
time to deliver. I need this bbok in order to produce a document that Steve
Kean requested from me a couple of weeks ago.
Thank you very much for your help.

SECURITY AND BUG PATCH ALERT
TODAY'S FOCUS: BUG ALERT: WELCOME
03/06/00
Dear Wincenty Kaminski,
Today's Focus: Bug Alert: Welcome
---------------------------------------------------------------
By Jason Meserve
Welcome to the Security and Bug Patch Alert newsletter!
Given the recent spate of high-profile denial-of-service and hack
attacks and the large number of people who have signed up for this
newsletter before this first edition has been even published, it is
clear that security is a major concern in the IT community as it
should be.
With technology now being looked upon as a profit rather than cost
center, IT departments face more pressure to keep critical systems up
and running as well as secure. No chief information officer or network
manager wants to have to tell the CEO that their e-commerce site has
been broken into and customer credit card data copied. Stories like that
tend to stick in a potential customer,s mind more than an expensive
Super Bowl ad.
It,s hard enough to keep up with the latest new technologies, never mind
latest security patch for your operating system or e-commerce
application. But we,re here to help.
Once a week we,ll publish a list of patches and alerts from all the
major vendors and security organizations with links to the source. We,ll
also provide other (hopefully) useful resources for the security-
conscious IT manager.
Comments and suggestions are always welcome! Send mail to
[email protected].
Now on with the latest patches and alerts:
Security glitch hits Foundry switches
From this week,s Network World: A security problem has cropped up in
Foundry Networks, ServerIron switches that make the devices susceptible
to denial-of-service attacks.

New version of Apache Web server released
The Apache Server Project released Version 1.3.12 of the popular Apache
Web server this week. The new release fixes what Apache calls a cross-
site scripting problem that could allow malicious HTML tags to be
inserted into client-side scripts. Download the new version at:
http://www.apache.org/dist/
********
Problem with Linux htdig package
Both FreeBSD and Debian are reporting a problem with the htdig package
that runs on their respective platforms. The problem is with the
htsearch and could allow a user to read any file on the local machine
accessible to the user ID that the script is running under (which in
most cases is +nobody,).
For more information from Debian:

********
nmh Linux package patched
Versions of nmh prior to 1.0.3 have a vulnerability that could allow
malicious users to modify the MIME headers in a mail message that may
cause nmh,s mshow command to execute arbitrary commands. A patch is
available at:
ftp://ftp.mhost.com/pub/nmh/nmh-1.0.3.tar.gz
********
Zombie Zapper 1.1 available
Zombie Zapper 1.1 helps shut down the Troj_Trinoo denial-of-service
client on Windows NT and Unix machines. More information at:
http://razor.bindview.com/tools/index.shtml
********
Problem with MySQL password authentication
According to the makers of FreeBSD, a vulnerability in the MySQL
database server (prior to Version 3.22.32) could allow anyone that can
connect to the database to access it without a password. More

Subject: Credit Markets Group Organisational Announcement.
We are pleased to announce the formation of the Credit Markets Group which is
responsible for developing innovative products to better manage the risk of
our internal credit portfolio as well as, looking for opportunities to
provide third party credit protection. Initially, we will be making markets
in bankruptcy protection on reference credits which are currently in our
portfolio but we expect to add additional credit products and reference
credits very quickly.
The team will utilise EnronOnline as its primary trade execution tool,
looking to quickly build market share by capturing the eyes of our current
counterparts. Simultaneously, we will launch an external web site focused
on credit protection where potential customers will have access to real time
prices and filter on specific reference credits as well as, access to credit
models and research papers on effective credit risk management. Utilising
e-commerce business principles, we expect to aggressively claim the space for
corporate credit protection. We expect to make a public announcement about
these new products in late January.
In order to effectively access the global market for credit protection, the
group will be based in London with an initial local desk set up in Houston as
well. Bryan Seyfried will be transitioning out of RAC, where he was
responsible for the Trading Controls and Research teams in Europe, to lead
the group and he will report to me.

Mark,
Two points.
1. You probably know about it already. ABHAY MEHTA, the author of "Power
Play", is on a
tour of the United States. Please, take a look at the information about a
meeting last Sunday
at Stanford University. The web site address is given below. My wife went to
the presentation and told me it was quite critical about Enron. About 40
people attended.
2. I was approached by John Martin, a professor of finance at Baylor, to
write jointly an
academic paper on Enron for a financial journal. He wanted to work on an
article on EBS.
I have suggested a different topic: Enron - Case Study of a Company
Reinventing Itself.
I made a few points to John:
a. Enron's evolution did not just happen by accident.
It was a result of implementation of a far-reaching
strategy developed by the management.
b. In the process of its evolution Enron changed its environment. I came up
with a term
"proactive evolution", as opposed to "reactive evolution."
c. The strategy included many elements, including emphasis on the quality
of human resources, changing corporate attitudes to risk taking and employee
empowerment.
d. There are very few companies that match Enron's experience and
accomplishemnts.
The paper could become a standard reading at the MBA courses on corporate
strategy
and would help greatly our recruiting efforts.
Writing the paper would require interviews with Ken, Jeff and a few other key
players.
Let me know what you thing about it. John is really excited about this paper.

Subject: Re: short-sell vs exercise
Thank you, Vince.
I understand this tax effect already when you explained it to me in your
office this morning.
I agree with you that short-selling is not so good, especially for me,
because I have
a significant capital loss this year. I definitely don't want to increase my
capital loss carry over.
(The short-selling idea might work for a person who wants to exercise his
options and
already has a huge capital gain this year. Unfortunately, it is not me.)
Thanks again for pointing this out.
The "employee stock option with taxes" problem sounds interesting. I will
think more about it when I have free time.

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.

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. :-)

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.

Subject: Modeling in Real Options
Vince,
My name is Jeanne Anne Klein and I am a financial modeler working with
Mingcheng Lian on a high profile pipeline project in China.
Zimin Lu referred us to you regarding questions we have on the Real Option
Valuation Approach. We are very enthusiastic about what we have read and
heard about this valuation method.
We have been doing some preliminary research on the Real Option Valuation
approach and believe that integrating this approach into our financial model
would bring a significant increase to the value to the project. We have
identified some deal aspects we believe would be ideal to valuate as real
options. Our goal is to work with the development team to structure the deal
to incorporate the Real Option Valuation approach into the model enabling us
to arrange the contracts within the deal to optimize the project's value.
We would like to arrange a meeting with you at your ealiest convenience to
brainstorm on additional deal aspects that can be valued using the real
option approach as well as on ways to quantify these aspects using the Real
Option valuation Method.
Please advise if you will be able to meet with us within the next week or
two.
Thank you for your kind attention,
Jeanne Anne

Subject: Re: Real options conference in Cambridge
Hi Vince
The person I was dealing with (Shan Millie) passed on my paper to her
successor, and I've heard nothing since. The plan was to try and publish the
article in Risk's "Game Choices" real options book, which is being published
in June, along with a summary version for the magazine.
I'm supposed to be waiting for them to get back to me, and it's not been at
the front of my mind until now. I think I'll chase them up.
Interestingly at a recent Risk course Phelim Boyle expressed an interest in
my work to appear in one the the journals he edits, I think it's Decision
Science or something like that. Do you think this would be a more
appropriate home for the work?
One more thing that may be of interest to you is that I've now worked forward
recursive DP into my notation too. It's simply a matter of putting the
decision nodes on the left hand side of the value symbols!
Should I chase Risk, or pursue the peer reviewed Phelim Boyle option?

I'd like to give a talk entitled "Diagrammatic Representation of Real Options
in Enron", in which I will give a brief run-down of a diagrammatic technique
I have developed for representing real option deals. 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,

"Volatility of Electricity Prices - Measurement and Analysis of Underlying
Causes"
Dr. Vincent Kaminski
Managing Director and Head of Research for Enron Corp.
?
Abstract:
The last three years were characterized by exceptionally high volatility of
the power prices in the US markets. The market developments have created a
number of unique challenges for energy industry economists. One immediate
question we have to answer is how to measure volatility of energy prices.
Although we can all agree that the prices in the power markets are
characterized by high variability, the traditional measures used in
financial economics (annualized standard deviation of log price returns) may
not fit well electricity prices.
The second challenge is to explain the sources of high price volatility and
to answer the question to what extent it can be attributed to problems that
can be addressed in the long run. Such problems include flaws in market
design that allow some market participants to abuse market power, limited
availability and/or unequal access to transmission, temporary shortages of
generation capacity. Some factors underlying high volatility of electricity
prices may be of permanent nature and may be a necessary price to pay for
increased market efficiency and expanded customer choice.

Subject: RE: Houston visit
Dear Vince,
Firstly, I really appreciate your time and our meeting last week. Learning
about Enron's use of leading-edge practices was quite enlightening and I
truly benefited from our visit.
Secondly, I've summarized my key "take-aways" as stated below. Before
conveying it to my management, however, I really appreciate it if you can
pls review my conclusions and ensure that they are not miss-stated.
Again, thanks so much for your time and wisdom. I was also honored that you
gave me a copy of the "Managing Energy Price Risk" book and shall reference
it with interest. THANK YOU.
I really look forward to seeing you again next time I'm in Houston.
Best regards,
Soussan
(914) 253-4187
PS. The latest Fortune article on ENE is a great read and substantiates the
company's innovative and creative approach to business.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
As you may know, I was invited to visit with Enron (ENE) last week. I met
with Vince Kaminski, the VP and head of research in the risk management
group of ENE. Vince who used to be with Salomon Brothers and AT&T is the
"brain" of ENE w.r.t. their analytical tools for pricing of commodities,
hedging, optimization of financial and physical transactions, as well as the
value-at-risk systems. In addition, Vince has received the 1999 James H.
McGraw Award for Energy Risk Management (Energy Risk Manager of the Year)
and is well published. He is the key contributor to a best-selling
publication by Risk Books entitled: Managing Energy Price Risk.
Our meeting was mainly focused on gaining additional insights re
leading-edge practices within ENE. My key findings are summarized below:
1. ENE does not use corporate price premises. They use market price info
only and adhere to mark-to-market accounting.
2. ENE uses the "Heath, Jarrow, and Morton" methods for modeling price
dynamics (I've asked BIC for a copy of the associated paper). They have
their own "home-grown" software, however, they periodically review selected
external developments for internal inclusion and advancement.
3. Vince's group comprises of Mathematicians, Physicists, and Operations
Researchers who are responsible for the development and advancement of ENE's
risk management tools. These models are religiously used by the traders,
risk managers, and BUs across ENE.
4. Investment proposals are screened, risked, and "ROVed" by a separate
corporate group (similar to our Special Studies and with business and real
options skills) who work in conjunction with the BUs. All evaluations and
transactions are marked-to-market.
5. ENE does not use efficient-frontier portfolio concepts. They "VC fund"
any opportunity that has a credible value proposition and can stand on its
own. They believe that with the current plentiful liquidity in the market,
project-financing in not an issue for a "good" opportunity. However, they
closely monitor the development of each opportunity, within their deep
portfolio, at the corporate level and know how to "fail fast".
6. The employee reward system is based on P&Ls as well as the creation of
new business.
7. Most employees have stock options.
I really enjoyed my visit and hope to meet with Vince again the next time
I'm in Houston.

Subject: Enron's Advertising Campaign
At Enron, we seek to achieve excellence in all that we do. So, we made sure
that our new advertising campaign came from the most talented people in the
business.
You.
We asked Enron employees, &How do you drive change, push the envelope, create
new businesses?8 Unanimously, you told us that you constantly question the
status quo and refuse to accept &impossible8 as an option. You believe that
there is always a better way to do things. You ask, &Why?8
Asking why is the culture at Enron, a culture that is Enron,s foundation. We
celebrate this word each day at work, and we celebrate this word in our new
advertising campaign.
On Sunday, Feb. 6th we launch our new international advertising campaign
entitled &Ask Why.8 The campaign begins with an &Ode to Why,& representing
the culture at Enron. Another ad uses the imagery of a man locked in a metal
suit, symbolizing the way other people do business ) constrained by
conventional thinking. In March, the campaign will continue with two
additional commercials proving the success of Enron,s innovative thinking.
You can watch the national debut this Sunday on CBS,s &Face the Nation8 at
9:30a.m. CST and &60 Minutes8 at 6p.m. CST. Beginning next week, you will be
able to view the entire campaign on-line at www.enron.com. For a schedule of

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."
I want to let you know I am not the only one in the group who doesn't
appreciate the way Maureen disrespects you. You remain the key external
factor in their success- it is not simply their own abilities that matter to
their futures but your own- Vince's- success with upper management that
matters.
We respect you, and we don't like it when you are disrespected. Maureen
didn't disrespect me today, Vince, she disrespected you.
It's time I told you something. Last April, Maureen, highly intoxicated
following a work-related function at Ninfa's, made an unsolicited predatory
sexual advance on me at my desk on the 19th floor. I was shocked and
disgusted, but I didn't say one word about this, Vince, because I played it
out and didn't want to put you into the position of having a raving Maureen
in your midst as you perhaps had to fire her and then endure a litany of
gender-bias crap lawsuits.
I "took one for the team," Vince. I can'rt say I would do it again- Maureen
is brazen to berate me after what she did, in public no less.
I appreciate your bringing me into Enron. I've found a respectful and,
indeed, a loving work environment. I remain willing to do whatever I can to
help the Group.
Clayton

Dear Generation/Power Marketing Executive:
The following is this week's Alliance Express newsletter, and a special
announcement regarding a proposed action by the Financial Accounting
Standards Board (FASB).
FASB 133
FASB is considering an exception to Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 133 that will exempt energy companies from the
requirement to account for capacity contracts as derivatives. A vote against
the exception would result in a significant increase in earnings volatility,
and raises other important concerns for energy suppliers. (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 [email protected], or at 202-508-5571.

INSIDE WASHINGTON
FEDERAL AFFAIRS
***Bill Repealing PUHCA Is Approved By Senate Committee***
The Senate Banking Committee today approved S 206, a bill that repeals the
Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935. The bill would repeal PUHCA and
transfer oversight of public utility holding companies from the Securities
and Exchange Commission to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and
appropriate state agencies.
S.206 was approved with two amendments. Offered by Sen. Mike Enzi (R-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.
***Institutes 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 106th
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 governments
*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.* DOEs 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, FERCs 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 wont 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.
*Were 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 Corporations 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.

Subject: The Real Options Conference
Dear Vince,
As the above event is drawing closer, I thought I would write a quick email
to finalise a few things with you. I understand that you would like a guest
to attend, please can you let me know their name and job title. Also, if you
could send me your conference checklist I would appreciate it, so that I can
finalise details with my audio visual company.
In the meantime, if there is anything I can do for you, please do not
hesitate to let me know on 0171-915-5116.
Kind Regards
Crystal

Ken Lay gave a high profile presentation on the current natural gas supply
and price situation at a recent conference held by the Interstate Oil and Gas
Compact Commission, and some of the best graphs came from work that Stinson
and Hector did (see the attached, slides #11, #12, #14, & #15).
I really appreciate their research and hope to be able to use their talents
again for presentations for the Office of the Chairman..

Vince,
If we face a delay with Maureen's article, I also have Giuseppe's solution to
the probability problem that you asked him to write. It is a page and a half
and will do in a pinch. See below.

Hi Will,

Here it is, for the joy of the few aficionados of the newsletter.
Have a good weekend.
