One of their litigators--Steve Smith-- is representing Duke International in
a recently filed arbitration against ENA in which Duke seeks to cancel an LNG contract with ENA that is valued at $170 million. As you will recall, this representation was the reason that we did not meet with O'Melveny when we were in CA last month.

While I am no longer on the legal side of the fence, I want to pass on to you my strong recommendation for you to consider using O'Melveny & Myers, in particular for California litigation, but perhaps in other areas. Over the past 2 years, we used O'Melveny in connection with the wind cos dispute with Florida Power & Light, and they did a great job. O'Melveny is one of the 2 or 3 largest firms in California and probably one of its oldest and finest. One of their litigation partners (and good personal friend of mine) is named Brian Curry, and if you have any interest in meeting these guys, they would very much like the chance to meet you. Please let me know if there might be any interest. I hope all is well with you and your family. Best regards. Adam
