Neale had reconfirmed the statement with Eric before it was signed. I understand David had no further comments from the last draft Neale had circulated. David As requested by Britt, please let us have your views regarding the possibility of a consulting agreement. Regards Matt From: Britt Davis@ENRON on 12/01/2000 10:51 PM To: Matthias Lee/SIN/ECT@ECT cc: David.Best@clyde.co.uk, ngregson@wfw.com, Richard B Sanders/HOU/ECT@ECT, Alan Aronowitz/HOU/ECT@ECT, Michael A Robison/HOU/ECT@ECT, Harry M Collins/HOU/ECT@ECT, James P Studdert/HOU/ECT@ECT Subject: Pacific Virgo - Eric Tan's Statement Matt, Thanks for the heads-up; if you told me in the past that Eric was leaving, I had forgotten. Eric is obviously a key witness in this case for us; I very much hope that he can be available to help us after he leaves and that he is indeed leaving in good graces. Based on my recollection of my review of his statement, I don't have any problem if he has already signed it. If he hasn't signed it already, I would ask Eric to hold off a few more days and let David and Neale immediately consider whether the statement needs to be amended in any respect, so that this can be done before he signs it. My feeling is that it is much better not to have more than one version of a signed witness statement. I would also like to have David's thoughts on whether, under the circumstances, we should go forward with some sort of consulting agreement with Eric. I am inclined to do it, if the business clients can shake loose the money, but do not want to if an English arbitrator would think that such an agreement does not pass the smell test.

He will be clearing the remainder of his leave shortly. I have asked Chismar on several occasions whether an arrangement can be made to keep Eric as some sort of consultant, seeing that he would be a key witness if the matter goes to arbitration. Chismar said he would discuss with Nowlan but has yet to reverted to me. Although I believe Eric is leaving with good graces, seeing that there is some uncertainty about his availability as a witness, I have yesterday asked Eric to sign his statement. I also think it is advantageous for Eric to sign the statement whilst still an employee. I have reveiwed the statement and am comfortable with it. If there are to be subsequent changes, we can ask Eric to sign another. I will circulate the signed statement to the team for reference. Regards Matt
