Jeff,

I got 20 cents for the swith option per Dth. My assumptions are as follows:

price curve assumption:
Waha --- IF-WAHA
La Plata Pool and TW(Ignacio) -- IF-EPSO/SJ
California Border -- NGI-SOCAL

Correlation assumption:

Waha- SJ 95%
Socal- SJ 90%

See the attached spreadsheet for more info. Call me for questions.

Subject: Options model

Zimin,
We're trying to price out a "live" options deal. Here are the parameters:

Volume: 32,000 Dth/d
Term: Jan. 1, 2002 through Oct. 31, 2006 (58 mos.)
Price: One part rate, $0.2175/Dth, plus applicable fuel
Primary Receipt/Delivery Points: (East - to -East Transport)
Receipt: La Plata Pool (use San Juan, Blanco price equivalent)
Delivery: Waha area

Option:
Alternate Delivery Pnt.: California Border (East - to- West Transport)
Price:
Floor- $0.2175/Dth, plus 4.75% pipeline fuel, plus 50% of the difference
between the California Border index
price and the San Juan Basin index price. Specifically, we'll use:
(SoCalGas large pkgs. minus TW (Ignacio, pts. south))

An important things to consider:
This option is only for Alternate Firm deliveries. Alternate firm is really
just a glorified version of interruptible.

Can you run the option model and tell me what is the dollar value of this
rather "unpure" option?

I appreciate it. Give me a call at 3-1521 if you have any questions. Also,
can you get us an answer by Friday, 10/13/00? We're looking to get the
proposal out to the customer by the end of the week if possible. Thanks.
