Travis:

I have been in contact with the Calgary office on this transaction. Mark
Powell is working on the deal and he will provide me with a copy of the
documentation if and when this is finalized. I also spoke to Bill Bradford
yesterday to update him on the legal status of this.

Subject: PG&E Gas Sales - FYI

FYI -- PG&E has asked to purchase March gas from Enron Canada on a prepaid
basis. Bill Bradford approved the transaction, but wanted to give the legal
department an opportunity to stop the deal if we saw any issues. Given that
this is an arms-length transaction on market terms, there isn't much risk
that we have participated in a fraudulent transfer. Nor is there really a
"preference" issue (the transaction doesn't involve a payment for an
antecedent debt) that would require us to disgorge the payments in the event
of a subsequent filing. Finally, as we are paid cash up front we shouldn't
have any credit or security issues. Assuming the traders are happy with the
economics of the deal, I see no reason why we shouldn't be willing to deal
with PG&E if we are paid cash up front.
