Credit assurances will need to be provided at the time the firm
transportation documents are signed. The PA states that Kern will tender the
transport agreement no later than 30 days prior to the date Kern files their
FERC application. Shippers will then have 15 days to sign the document .
Kern will want to file this application ASAP - sometime in April.

I notice that the language below does not address our need to have a call on
the capacity if the sale falls through. Due to the high level of exposure
surrounding this capacity, I don't think the language set forth below deals
with all of the issues.

I have a 9:30 meeting with Gerald to prepare the assignment documents - can
we conference then?

Here's the PSA language. Sorry.


(a) Buyer agrees to obtain the release of Seller under Seller's guarantee,
dated [_____], in favor of Kern River Gas Transmission Company effective as
of the Closing, and in furtherance thereof, agrees that Buyer shall either
provide its own guarantee in favor of Kern River Gas Transmission Company or
such other form of security as shall be acceptable to Kern River Gas
Transmission Company in order to obtain such release.

Below is the covenant we have in the PSA regarding release of the gas credit
support. When will a shipper be required to put up the credit support?
Would anticipate we would have trouble obtaining a written release from Kern
if Calpine agreed to provide the required support? Would we receive a
written release if Enron puts up a guarantee (which by definition covers the
entire 15-year term) and Calpine puts up a three year evegreen LC? Thanks.
