Re: credit for Nippon Chemi-con

Jane:

I believe the attached credit worksheet describes language that would be
included in the Credit Support Annex.

John/Sara, do you have any go by's to assist Jane on this one.

Thanks for your help.

Hi John,

Thanks for this, just wondering though, how do you usually get from this sort
of table to the actual provisions to include in the contract. Alan, Mark, is
there any easy way to do this?

Thanks.

Jane

Morten Erik -

I recommend the credit terms provided in the attached document to be included
in the Nippon Chemi-con contract. These are industry standard terms for a
counterparty with credentials such as Nippon-Chemi-con, and these industry
standards are what will enable Enron to syndicate the credit risk if we
decide to do so in the future.

After my discussion with Jonathan last week, I think it is clear that Credit
is on the same page with your team in that we recognize the importance of
getting this first deal booked. I think that in proposing the terms of your
transaction to the counterparty though, Enron can begin educating the market
as to the nature of the credit risk imbedded in the deal structure, and in
doing so, begin setting the same standards we have in our other portfolios.
The attached credit terms are not set in stone, but I think they are a good
place to start. I will make myself available to you and the counterparty to
discuss the credit terms, and we will be very willing to negotiate the terms
in good faith.

My point is simply that we should not enter into any of these transactions
without fully discussing the credit implications with the counterparty.

Please feel free to call me or write if you have any questions or concerns.
