Whenever you decide whether the UCD for ECI is sufficient or not please let
me know urgently. Management in London has some aggressive expectations for
a deliverable on repos. We will have to push back on them if the UCD has to
be redrafted.

I would very much like to give management a clear status and a realistic
time-frame for when we can expect to have the repo capacity in place.

I do recognize the time frame is highly dependent on what the current
situation actually is. Therefore I am hopeful we can answer the below
questions sooner than later.

If I can provide any help in anyway please let me know.

Tom,

Sara, I do not agree with the view that we cannot use the existing
resolutions for repos. Please call me at your convenience so that we can
discuss.

I am assuming that you are saying that if repos go through the Prime Broker
accounts it is a problem. The poblem being that the current brokerage
agreements for ECI do not provide for repos. Is my assumption correct?

Is our UCD adequate as is for repos?

What is our existing format that you mention below?

Are you able to pursue this with Goldman right now today?

Thanks,

Tom

Tom:

I am not certain that the existing resolution permits repurchase and reverse
repurchase transactions and securities lending, bonds borrow pledge, etc. as
the brokerage consent was not written to accommodate these types of
transactions. However, if the repo party will accept our existing format,
then we need not worry. I'll call Ted Leh and try to find the proper Goldman
person.

Sara,

Can you please provide your findings on the following items:

1. Determine with Cheryl that ECI is in fact authorized to transact Repos

2. How robust the Goldman Repo agreements are, and their sutability to ECI.

3. An estimate on how long it will take to set up the Goldman Repo Agreements
in ECI's name.


Can you please also provide any ideas how ECI or ECL could transact a Repo
trade today using existing documentation.


London has indicated an urgent need to carry out these transactions.

Thanks,

Tom
