Did you get a copy of the letter from Austin Energy . . . I had Lorie scan and send it to you via email.

We have failed to pay when due over $1.5 million for gas purchased from the City in connection with our exercise of our prepetition call rights to the MW, plus we are in breach of our prepetition and post petition O&M payment obligations. City has also alleged anticipatory breach in connection with our press release stating we were "suspending all payments". I asked Jeffrey to send you a copy of the City's letter. I still haven't had time to review the Participation Agreement, but I understand ENA's bankruptcy ( ENA is guarantor of Sandhill's obligations) was not an event of default or otherwise did not give the City a termination right.

At the risk of asking a stupid question, are we in breach under the project agreement? I didn't comb it, but I also didn't see anything that screamed breach to me. If we have a paid up call on 100 MW, that is probably something we would want to preserve.

More to consider!

For now, Kay and I both will be working on this. I learned this am that the desk has a power deal with City of Austin that is in default ( not involving the LCRA hedge), so it may be beneficial to think about some kind of global workout with the City involving the $$ owed, the 8% interest held by Sandhill and the obligations under the power deal. When I have some time to read the project documents, and you get your info, all three of us should meet to formulate a response to the City's letter.

Stuart:

Here is my shot at your memo.

I will have the accounting spreadsheet from Theresa Vox today.
