That's too bad. i am sure you learned a lot from the experience which will
serve you well on the next one. Keep plugging.

Dick,
As we discussed today, Enron's analysis of Bunge's energy information
indicates
inadequate regulatory and pricing opportunity for Enron to create additional
value for Bunge.

Electricity:
The predominance of electricity usage occurs in states that are either
several years
away from enacting deregulation or where the rules are insufficiently
determined at this
time to even estimate an opening date. When opening dates are more clearly
defined
and we have confidence in energy curves for those markets, then we could
revisit this
area of your energy profile.

Natural Gas:
Bunge has taken the initiative to engage in several longer term supply and
transporation
agreements which have effectively managed your price/therm. For those
reasons, the
opportunities are very limited for Enron to apply a consolidation approach
and provide
compelling additional value for Bunge.

As we agreed in January, the first objective was to define the potential for
mutual value
and then decide what, if any next steps were appropriate. I regret we will
not be able to
help Bunge at this time, but know that Enron will remain interested in
assisting your
company in the future if and when market conditions afford us that
opportunity.

Please feel free to contact me at any time in the future if I can help answer
further questions
for you or others who have been involved in this process. Dick, thank you
again for
providing your time and attention to this inquiry process.

Sincerely,

Gary Mirich
