content: George,
Below is a list of questions that Keith and I had regarding the Westgate
project:
Ownership Structure
What will be the ownership structure? Limited partnership? General partner?
What are all the legal entities that will be involved and in what
capacity(regarding ownership and
liabilities)?
Who owns the land? improvements?
Who holds the various loans?
Is the land collateral?
Investment
What happens to initial investment?
Is it used to purchase land for cash?Secure future loans?
Why is the land cost spread out on the cash flow statement?
When is the 700,000 actually needed? Now or for the land closing? Investment
schedule?
Investment Return
Is Equity Repayment the return of the original investment?
Is the plan to wait until the last unit is sold and closed before profits
are distributed?
Debt
Which entity is the borrower for each loan and what recourse or collateral
is associated with each
loan?
Improvement
Construction
Are these the only two loans? Looks like it from the cash flow statement.
Terms of each loan?
Uses of Funds
How will disbursements be made? By whom?
What type of bank account? Controls on max disbursement? Internet viewing
for investors?
Reports to track expenses vs plan?
Bookkeeping procedures to record actual expenses?
What is the relationship of Creekside Builders to the project? Do you get
paid a markup on subcontractors as a
general contractor and paid gain out of profits?
Do you or Larry receive any money in the form of salary or personal expenses
before the ultimate payout of profits?
Design and Construction
When will design be complete?
What input will investors have in selecting design and materials for units?
What level of investor involvement will be possible during construction
planning and permitting?
Does Creekside have specific procedures for dealing with subcontractors,
vendors, and other professionals?
Such as always getting 3 bids, payment schedules, or reference checking?
Are there any specific companies or individuals that you already plan to
use? Names?
These questions are probably very basic to you, but as a first time investor
in a project like this it is new to me. Also, I want to learn as
much as possible from the process.

Subject: Westgate Proforma-Phillip Allen.xls
Enclosed is the preliminary proforma for the Westgate property is Austin
that we told you about. As you can tell from the proforma this project
should produce a truly exceptional return of over 40% per year over 3 years.
This is especially attractive when the project is in a market as strong as
Austin and we are introducing new product that in a very low price range for
this market. This is the best project in terms of risk and reward that we
have uncovered to date in the Austin market.
The project does have approved zoning and will only require a site plan. As
it is in the "Smart Growth Corridor" area designated by the City of Austin
for preferred development, this will be fast tracked and should be complete
in less than 6 months. Additionally, many of the current and more severe
water treatment ordinances have been waived. I have estimated the lot
improvement costs based on a 28 lot development we investigated in North
Austin, which included a detention/retention and filtration pond and street
widening. Even though this property is not likely to require street
widening and will have less of a detention/retention and filtration pond
requirement, I used this data to be cautious.
The Lone Star gas line easement in the lower portion of the property is not
expected to impact sales significantly. Other projects have been quite
successful with identical relationships to this pipeline, such as the
adjoining single family residential and a project at St. Edwards University.
As with most infill projects, the quality of the surrounding neighborhoods
is uneven. We have included a fence around the entire property, but may
only put it on Westgate and Cameron Loop. Gated communities are far
preferred so this is a good idea for both screening and current buyer
preferences.
The seller accepted our offer Thursday evening with a price of $680,000 and
an extended escrow. This will enable us to probably obtain an approved site
plan before closing on the contract, which will mean that we can close into
an A&D Loan rather than into a land loan and then an improvement loan.
This analysis shows your investment at $700,000 for a 50% interest in the
profits of the project. As we discussed in San Marcos, we can also discuss
having you invest only in the lots, sell the lots to the construction entity
with your profit in the lot. I believe this would facilitate the use of a
1031 Exchange of the proceeds from this deal into another project that is a
rental deal or at least into the land for a rental project that would then
be the equity for that project. You would need to discuss this with an
exchange expert first. Larry Lewter knows an expert in the field in San
Antonio if you do not know anyone.
I will send you a package on the property that was prepared by the broker,
by Airborne Express today for Saturday delivery.
Once you have read the package and reviewed this proforma, we would want to
schedule a tour of the site and the area. Please get back to me as soon as
your schedule permits regarding the site visit and feel free to call at any
time. You can reach me over the weekend and in the evening at either
512-338-1119 or 512-338-1110. My cell phone is 512-748-7495 and the fax is
512-338-1103. I look forward to hearing from you and to working with you
on this project that is sure to be a major winner.
I regret that it took so long to get back to you, but we had some unusual
events these past few weeks. A small freakish wind storm with severe 60+mpg
downdrafts hit the South part of Austin where we are building 10 town homes.
One of these units had just had the roof decked with the siding scheduled to
start the next day. The severe downdraft hitting the decked roof was enough
to knock it down. The City shut down the project for a week and it took
another week to get every thing back on tract. Then last week I had to take
my wife to emergency. She has a bulge in the material between the vertebra
in her spine and it causes her extreme pain and has kept her bedridden this
past week.. There is nothing like having your wife incapacitated to realize
the enormous number of things she does everyday. Fortunately, it looks as
if she will be ok in the long run.

Here sales numbers from Reagan:
As you can see his units sold at a variety of prices per square foot. The
1308/1308 model seems to have the most data and looks most similiar to the
units you are selling. At 2.7 MM, my bid is .70/sf higher than his units
under construction. I am having a hard time justifying paying much more with
competition on the way. The price I am bidding is higher than any deals
actually done to date.
Let me know what you think. I will follow up with an email and phone call
about Cherry Creek. I am sure Deborah Yates let you know that the bid was
rejected on the De Ville property.

Subject: Sagewood Town Homes
I was aware that Regan Lehman, the lot developer for the entire 70 lot
duplex project, was selling his units in the $180's, He does have a much
lower basis in the lots than anyone else, but the prime differences are due
to a) he is selling them during construction and b) they are smaller units.
We do not know the exact size of each of his units, but we believe one of
the duplexes is a 1164/1302 sq ft. plan. This would produce an average sq
footage of 1233, which would be $73.80 psf at $182,000. (I thought his
sales price was $187,000.) At this price psf our 1,376 sf unit would sell
for $203,108.
What is more important, in my view, is a) the rental rate and b) the
rent-ability. You have all of our current rental and cost data for your own
evaluation. As for rent-ability, I believe that we have shown that the
3-bedroom, 3.5 bath is strongly preferred in this market. In fact, if we
were able to purchase additional lots from Regan we would build 4 bedroom
units along with the 3-bedroom plan.
Phillip, I will call you today to go over this more thoroughly.
Sincerely,

Why am I not surprised ?
I suspect that if someone were to build a town called Lime, make
everything in the town out of lime, provide only foods that have
some connection to lime and then bury the Limeys in lime when

subject: History of Lime and Cement
content: Folks,
I just found this interesting site about the history of the uses of lime and
development of pozzolonic materials ...lime and clay - Roman Cement - that I
think will be interesting to the group.
I highly recommend David Moore's book "The Roman Pantheon" at $25.00 - a
very thorough research into the uses and development of Roman Cement....lime
and clay/pozzolonic ash; the making and uses of lime in building. The book
covers ancient kilns, and ties it all to modern uses of cement and concrete.
I find it almost impossible to put down - as the writing flows easily -
interesting, entertaining, and enlightening. David Moore spent over 10 years
learning just how the Romans were able to construct large buildings,
structures, etc., with simply lime and volcanic ash - structures that have
lasted over 2000 years. A great testimonial to the Roman builders; and good
background information for sustainable builder folks.
Thank you, Mr. Moore. I highly recommend the site and especially the Book.

subject: re:spreads
content: saw a lot of the bulls sell summer against length in front to mitigate
margins/absolute position limits/var. as these guys are taking off the
front, they are also buying back summer. el paso large buyer of next winter
today taking off spreads. certainly a reason why the spreads were so strong
on the way up and such a piece now. really the only one left with any risk
premium built in is h/j now. it was trading equivalent of 180 on access,
down 40+ from this morning. certainly if we are entering a period of bearish
to neutral trade, h/j will get whacked. certainly understand the arguments
for h/j. if h settles $20, that spread is probably worth $10. H 20 call was
trading for 55 on monday. today it was 10/17. the market's view of
probability of h going crazy has certainly changed in past 48 hours and that
has to be reflected in h/j.

will be interesting to see what happens when h/j is prompt. could j actually
be strong? seems like of the spreads on the board the best risk reward is in

length trying to roll and funds trying to roll at the same time leading to
some ridiculous level at expiry. any thoughts?

2. I have a lot of counterparties whom click on hub gas daily when they
meant to trade nymex. Although I would like the nymex filter to bring gas
dailies, is there anyway to separate them a little more clearly. Eventually
I would like to run all my products in parallel with gas daily, but I'm

selling for the first time in two months over the past two days. Most
selling Cal 1 off the back of Pira. Pira certainly commands a lot of respect
these days. Too much, probably.
The problem with all these bull spreads (ie F-H) is the thought process in
natty is that if Jan is strong, just think what happens when you get to March
and run out of gas. The spread game is very different than playing crude.
These spreads haven't moved for the past 1000 point runup. You know there
were guys bullish this market trying to play it with spreads and haven't made
a penny.
Just to clarify, Pira said 3 bcf y on y for Z1? That seems hard to believe.

be up 1-1.5 bcf by year end. does increased deliverabilty mean these winter
sprds in producing areas-ie jan-apr and the fact the mkts gonna be more

Susan Scott, Larry's risk manager, will compile and send you a spreadsheet of
total p&l minus new deal p&l since June 1. Can you review this data and
compare it to the respective VAR numbers for these dates. I think you will
see the VAR numbers way overestimate his p&l volatility.

Subject: Re Larry May - REVISED
John,
I apologize for the delay in responding, I was in class today.
We are having difficulty backtesting Larry May's VaR. It looks as if during
the month of June, the book administor loaded the spreadsheets into ERMS but
assigned multiple master deal ID's. (the code is "NG-OPT-XL-PRC")
For example Larry May is showing the following during the month of June:
June 1st $797 million dollars loss
June 2nd +192 million dollars made
June 5th $300 million dollars made... (etc..)
This problem makes it impossible to backtest....
Second, regarding a different approach, the immediate solution was the
allocation of an additional $5 million dollars of VaR, thereby temporarily
increasing your limit to $45 million. This limit increase is in effect until
July 26th. The game plan is that during this time period, a better solution
can be devised.....
I hope this helps.
Thanks,
Frank

Just following up on two topics.
One: Larry May's book continues to run at a VAR of 2,500,00 despite the fact
his P&L is never close to that. Can you check that his exotics book
positions are being picked up in his VAR calcs.
Second: Have you looked into applying a band-aid to the understating longer
term Vol problem until we change formulas?

John,
Thank you for your flexibility regarding the asian option we purchased from
you (average Feb-Aug GD HH settle). Unfortunately, our customer would like
to settle on 7 days, using the preceding day for any day for which Gas Daily
is not published (i.e., Friday prices would be used for Saturday and Sunday)
- so I know it's not your preference, but I need to take advantage of your
offer.

Subject: SMUD deal Asian options
John(s),
How will the Asian options we purchased from the gas desk settle with respect
to weekends... will the average of every day's gas daily settle mean the
average of only the days on which Gas Daily is published? or will it triple
count each Friday's or Monday's price to account for the weekend (with a
similar calculation on weekends). I assume it is the former, not the
latter. Is this correct? Are you indifferent if we want to switch to the
latter? Intuitively, it would seem to me that at this point, it wouldn't
matter (because Friday or Monday prices are just as likely to be above the
average as below the average), but you're wearing the risk, not us - so let
me know.
Frankly, we don't have a preference as a desk, except that we need the
settlement to be consistent with the deal we are entering into with SMUD.
SMUD has questioned our calculation and I need to know how much I need to
argue for one or the other.
Regards,
Gary

Some of our food processing factories in the Midwest which have fuel switching
capability find it profitable at these gas prices to burn rendered animal fat
in
lieu of natural gas. Apparently, the doesn't hurt the boiler machinery. One
of
the guys responsible for this move did a back of the envelope calculation and
found that at $8.00 / Dth NG prices it was even profitable to buy olive oil in
bulk as a heating fuel. They haven't used veggie oil yet but are considering
it. Anyone else hear any stories of end users switching to unusual fuels?

Good question. The exchange, NYMEX, and I, Enron Online, offer a nearly
identical product. The fight is over which execution model is superior. I
would argue that technology will make open outcry exchanges extinct. It's
happened in Europe already. The largest commodity exchange in Europe, the
LIFFE, went with a parallel electronic system to open outcry. Within weeks,
the floor was deserted and virtually all trading occurred electronically. I
still trade on the exchange because we have credit issues with individuals
and certain hedge funds that limit the trading we can do with them direct.
The exchange still provides a credit intermediation function that is useful.
It is certainly an issue that we are trying to address.

Dear Mr. Arnold,
It was nice to meet you yesterday at the
information session. Thank you for the dinner last night.
I had a great time getting to know Enron and its people in
a more relaxed setting.
During out conversation yesterday, I was confused
about a point you made. You stated that you spent most of
your time on the phone with Traders in New York. When
you talk to the traders, do you try to steer them towards
Enron Online, or are you doing trading outside of Enron
Online? I think the underlying question that I am asking,
is: Is Enron Online meant to facilitate a gas trader's job,
or is it meant to bypass traders completely.
Thanks again for your time and for dinner. I look forward
to talking with you again when you come to campus for
interviews.
Cordially,
Adam

graduating from Brown University he has traded options on the floor in New
York as a local for the last 8 years. He trades natural gas options and is
looking to occassionally do an information exchange with someone where he can
discuss the OTC market versus what he sees going on in the ring. If this
would be of interest or not let me know and I will hook you two up. Thanks
for your time.

We are still on for drinks on the 19th. You have called the market very well

I hope you know I was just fishing for a reaction on the phone before. I
assumed we would discuss a potential relationship when I'm in Houston on the

have a comfort level with the quality of my work. I think the analysis I've
given you has been quite accurate as to market turns and price behavior. It
would be helpful if I had some idea of how you trade/view the market. Are
you mainly day-trading or do you hold positions for several days/weeks?
That way I can structure my comments in order to best serve your interests.

The price behavior of the past couple days has been disappointing. My
short-term market patterns suggested a more robust price rally and natural
appears to be waning at present. Volume on this rally is poor,
particularly since yesterday was a decent day to the upside. The market
appears to be using a lot of its energy but spinning its wheels. If we
are at these same price levels in another two weeks, that would be
extremely bullish. Right here, the risk/reward to being long is not so
great. Recommend a neutral stance short-term on natural. Bigger picture
is still very bullish. However, this market needs another 1-2 weeks of
what I would call horizontal price action to set the stage for a big move
to the upside.

Subject: microphone to houston
John-
What do you think of getting a direct mic from New York to Houston as soon as
possible? We had one at my last employer from NY to London which worked
great. You can tun it on or off but it allows us to communicate without
getting on the darn phone - I am sure its a total annoyance to pick us up.
The steno is still a phone to me and its not recorded.
We could keep it between you and Mike.
We are getting a few more funds to trade now- some program guys among them
who will need quicker execution. I know you and Per have discussed the idea
of them calling you direct but I think, for now, the mic is a better answer.
I can sit down with you when I am down there to discuss and give you an
update of who we are planning to trade with.
Best Rgds,
Caroline

subject: small ventures usa
content: Russell:
I think I should give you a little background on small ventures. Bill
Perkins and I have a strong personal and professional relationship. He is an
extremely creative individual. Whalley actually commented on him today as
someone "who thinks outside the box". Bill actually sat in a bar four years
and said the next tradeable market would be bandwidth. He has been
successful in the gas business when he has had someone to filter his ideas.
As such he provides an informal consulting role to Enron. He throws out
ideas and, every once in a while, he comes up with a great one. He pointed
out an anomalous pricing occurence in the options market, a market I normally
don't follow closely, that I translated into a multimillion dollar trade for
Enron. In return, I have agreed to have Enron intermediate his trades within
reason. I want to emphasize that continuing this relationship should be
considered a high priority. I am willing to accept some of the credit risk
exposure as a cost of doing business. Bill understands his role as an
independent in the market and performs the right risk/reward trades for
someone with finite capital. I place very high confidence in Bill not
conducting high risk trades. Having said that, we certainly need to monitor
his credit exposure and continue to require LC's. Just understand that he is
at a different level of sophistication that any other non-investment grade
counterparty.
I understand there was some concern in regards to the Transco Z6 spread
option he traded. He was absolutely right about the valuation and we, on the
trading desk, knew it as well. There are a couple isolated products that
Enron does not do a good job of valuing because of systems limtations. This
was one product. Our spread options are booked in Excel using option pricing
models created by the research group. The problem with these models is that
they are strictly theoretical and don't take into account gas fundamental
price limitations. For instance, it is less probable, though not impossible,
for a transport spread from a production area to a market area to go within
variable cost than the models predict. Thus it is necessary to apply a
correlation skew curve on top of the overlying correlation used. Obviously,
we have this function in our pricing models. I was not aware this
methodology had not been transferred to the valuation models. This has since
been changed. Fortunately these incidents tend to be extremely rare as very
few non-investment grade companies trade these types of products.
Finally, on Friday Bill wanted to do a trade that reduced his exposure to
Enron. I gave Mike Maggi the go ahead to do the trade without consulting
credit. I do not believe that I acted out of line in approving this trade
considering the circumstances. If you believe differently, please advise.
Thanks,
John

priced at parity to NYMEX. I thought the response was tremendous. It really
shows that we might have an angle to put out more of the curve and become the

One problem I had was linking 2 syncopated basis products. I set up a new
product for the prompt that was Nov GD/D Henry Hub that was a syncopated
basis of 0/0 to the Nov Nymex. However, since Dec Nymex is a syncopated
