Steve knows I am pissed about this and in our Arcos meeting I brought up the
same point raised by Kay below. Steve claims that the no cap on gov. violations was rejected some time ago by GE mana. when Barnas presented to them an update of the "end world hunger". Steve also thinks that they had told us previously about this change. ( Is this true???) I told him it was news to me and that I would have thought that if true, then GE would have (a) highlighted the changes on the draft contract and/or (b) added it to the list of outstanding issues. When asked to explain the rationale for changing their position on this issue, Steve was unable to give an answer other than to say GE mana. had said that they needed to cap their liability at the contract price for gov. violations although they thought GE could live with no cap on FCPA violations.

Did Steve S ask that it be added to the list? I would let them bring it up if he didn't. We spent quite a bit of time and effort on the LOL clause, and it was subject to lots of give and take.

GE has informed us during the Arcos discussion that GE senior management has directed that the GE deal team cannot agree to allowing GE indemnity obligations related with government fines for failure to comply with law to be exclude from the limit of liability. This needs to be added to Pete T's World Hunger Punchlist of issues. Enron Arcos deal team has not agreed to GE's position.
