Vince,
Per the dialogue below, there seems to be some agreement between our two groups that a subscription to the "Institute for International Finance" is worth receiving, but to do so in one central subscription and split the cost. Is a $16K share OK for your group? We'll do $32K on our end, and then try and sell some of our share to my European counterpart once he gets better established with a bigger budget. --Scott ---------------------- Forwarded by Scott Tholan/Corp/Enron on 02/26/2001 06:21 PM --------------------------- Robert Johnston@ECT 02/26/2001 07:51 AM To: Scott Tholan/Corp/Enron@Enron cc: Subject: Re: IIF/OxAn Scott- could you give Vince a call or an email to recommend that he kick in 16K for the Institute for International Finance? We would pay 32K (maybe get Jim Roth to pick up some down the road).

Can you count us in for a slice of the cost and advise me how many others depts you can recruit to help pay the annual fees. Once you have a final count, it may reduce our costs in Research. Thanks, GEK Robert Johnston@ECT 02/16/2001 04:31 PM To: Gwyn Koepke/NA/Enron@ENRON cc: Maureen Raymond/HOU/ECT@ECT Subject: Re: IIF/OxAn If you need access to consensus data occasionally let me know and I can pull it for you. Let me know when you get an answer on IIF. I will also be looking for others to buy in.

We have decided to cancel the Oxford Analytica, as we receive a consensus forecast for currency and inflation from another source. Regarding IIF, it is an important source for us. I will discuss the costs within the Research Group and advise you of how we will proceed. Gwyn Robert Johnston@ECT 02/13/2001 09:46 AM To: Maureen Raymond/HOU/ECT@ECT, Gwyn Koepke/NA/Enron@Enron cc: Scott Tholan/Corp/Enron@Enron Subject: IIF/OxAn Hi Maureen and Gwyn- On the Oxford Analytica front, I'm glad you have found the service useful. Our contract with them has expired and we are currently negotiating for more users to have access. Our current contract is for $50K or $10K per user per year. We can charge $10K back to you. On the IIF front, the invoice for $47K is due at the end of the month. Here I would propose that we pay two thirds (to cover our costs and the costs of our Competitive Analysis colleagues in London), leaving $15K for you to cover. Since we took on these services last year, we have expanded our range of sources and projects and are consequently trying to do more with less. Thus I need to allocate some of our costs from OxAn and IIF to other projects. Let me know what you think about this proposal. Maureen, congratulations on your secondment to Enron Metals (Gwyn mentioned it to me). FYI, our colleague Jim Roth is providing Competitive Analysis support to Joe Gold and John Sherriff on that project from London. RJ
