Subject: working paper list & etc dear vince : i have put together a list of finance working papers ( some of which i brought to the interview last wednesday ) which i have written since 1995 mostly in support of my work but also ( at least initially ) as a learning tool . several of them , however , do contain innovations . i have asked ms . de claris to forward a copy to you . as i expressed to you earlier i am particularly interested in enron credit swaps trading platform and the business opportunities that it will spawn . i also think that there are tremendous opportunities to be explored in the secondary mortgage maket in the us . i do not know if enron has considered or is active in this market . this would be an area that i am also very interested and in which i think much better can be done than most of the players in the street . the question in my mind ( hopefully not prematurely ) is : if there is interest here would enron consider letting me put together this business ? i look forward to hearing from you soon . best regards joao | 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 |

Subject: re : tom halliburton dear all : a few words about tom . he is a power engineer type who has previously worked at northwestern us and new zealand utilities on various projects including asset planning and hydro scheduling . he was hired by ei structuring to oversee modeling efforts using sddp , henwood , etc . because of the recent implosion at ei apache , tom ' s group has effectively evaporated , and thus he is looking for a new home . he has some finance background from having to do asset evaluation for utility rate filings . he has almost no options experience . he seems to have quite a bit of experience in some classes of or problems . clearly the most obvious fit is with my group , but the idea is for you all to see if tom has a tool set that may be of use to other research projects . and , as usual , the personality fit is the other aspect to examine . this is meant to be casual . if the consensus is positive , then i will explore the formalities of such a transfer . thanks , grant . | 0 |

Subject: re : eott options tracy , attached is a spreadsheet model which contains both black - scholes and american option valuation models . these are the generally accepted methods for valuation of options on equity . the " european " option prices assume that the option holder can exercise his options only at maturity , while the " american " style options can be exercised at any time during their life . i have assumed in the examples that the underlying equity units have a market value of $ 13 . 00 and that the options are struck at this level . the volatility input is the other main assumption . eott has been trading recently with a volatility ranging between 30 % to 40 % although looking further back , the range is much wider . to run the model , you must be linked with the options library . i am not sure what lan you are connected with , but you can coordinate with zimin lu ( x 36388 ) for help with loading the option library add - in module . on the ena lan it is located under o : \ research \ exotica \ xll \ exotica . xll . this is loaded in excel using the tools / add - ins and browse to reach the add - in location . - - stinson x 34748 p . s . i will mail you a hard - copy of a plot showing recent eott volatility as well . if you would like us to help you in running specific examples , please let me , vince , or zimin know . | 0 |

Subject: re : pserc industrial advisory board meeting invitation vince , i agree with alex on this issue . as an alternative for sponsorship . the ut electrical engineering dept . is interested in sponsorship for research activities such as the one i just completed or as martin performed when he was at ut ( just thought that i would mention this as a possible alternative ) . would you be interested in a presentation or a " brown bag lunch " on this subject ? lance alex huang 04 / 02 / 2001 08 : 55 am to : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect cc : lance cunningham / na / enron @ enron subject : re : pserc industrial advisory board meeting invitation vince , i think it is important to keep a good relationship with pserc , but as of now , it is not worth two days of your time to attend the board meeting . besides , since we are not a sponsor yet , we have virtually no voice in the meeting and our presence sometimes is awkward . again , even if we are one of the thirty or so sponsors , our voice is rather limited , for most of the other sponsors have different concerns from ours . one way to remedy this is to individually sponsor some research projects , via sumer intern or invited talks . alex | 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: re : sharad update hi kate , firstly it was very useful to hold the informal discussion with him . sharad seemed hesitant due to the offer not being what he expected . he asked me some questions about the " bonus culture " at enron and suggested that it was not as good as at investment banks that he is interviewing with . i sold him on the value he can extract from the excellence within the research group and the ability to join a growing organisation at a critical point in , but he still seemed reticent saying that he " needs time " which i understood to mean that he was looking for a better offer elsewhere . he is a great candidate and it would be a real shame to lose him , given the difficulty of getting good candidates . i discussed this with vince and given how much we need him in research in london and vince agreed to discuss the possibility of an element of guarantee or sign on to help him make the right decision . i think vince will call you or dale to discuss this . regards , anjam tel : 713 345 9991 [ p . s . vince , kate bruges is on extension 37354 , dale is on 36726 ] kate bruges 13 / 07 / 2000 11 : 02 to : anjam ahmad / lon / ect @ ect cc : subject : sharad hi anjam how did your conversation go yesterday ? regards kate | 0 |

Subject: stephen bennett norma , i fully concur . what can we do about it ? can we change the job classification retroactively ? vince - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - forwarded by vince j kaminski / hou / ect on 12 / 12 / 2000 02 : 41 pm - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - from : mike a roberts 12 / 09 / 2000 10 : 33 am to : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect cc : 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: california power 1 / 19 / 00 1 . legislation passes - short - term measures , very long - term measures as we said yesterday , sb - 7 x passed the california state senate easily . the bill gives the state the immediate authority to purchase power via the department of water and resources until february 2 nd . the department will have $ 400 million available to finance power purchases , but there expectations that these costs could easily rise to $ 1 billion by next week . ab - 1 x has evolved into a longer - term solution and in its current form , would authorize the department of water and resources to enter into long - term contracts ( as opposed to the 15 day contracts in sb - 7 x ) to buy power at a price cap of 5 . 5 cents per kw / h . this legislation is not expected to pass today and will likely be changed considerably during the upcoming two week period covered by sb - 7 x , when negotiations between generators , the utilities , and the state are likely to resume . a second piece of legislation under - - sb 6 x - - has created uncertainty in the markets . this legislation will create a california public power authority with bond issuance authority . the uncertainty concerns whether the new authority will address the problem of the $ 12 billion in outstanding debt owed by the utilities . the current text of the legislation focuses only on longer term measures such as expanding generation capacity and improving efficiency . yet the legislation also says " the authority may issue bonds , exercise power of eminent domain , and enter into joint power agreements and buy , own , and sell land and facilities necessary for the financing of a project . " the general nature of this language leaves open the possibility of either issuing bonds to finance past debts , or using eminent domain or the bond authority to finance the utilities as they enter into a ch . 11 proceeding . 2 . default update 3 . bush as we reported on wednesday , the bush administration continues to demonstrate little interest in getting involved | 0 |
