From a credit standpoint, potential risk of this 25,000 bbls/mo, May'01,
financial swap is very small. But I recognize ECP issues since no support
and no information has ever been available. Can we include a representation
that, upon execution, would establish eligibility. I will manage credit
under volume/tenor limits and implied support of a AA parent. If acceptable,
please send language to Confirmations for use in this (v24545) and all future
trades.

thanks
brant

Yes, "eligible contract participant" ("ECP") is an issue. Both ENA and
ECTRI are Delaware corporations and are therefore subject to the jurisdiction
of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the U.S. regulatory agency with
oversight for derivatives). As a practical matter, I understand that ECTRI
does have many executed ISDA agreements. I do not know the volume of
"omnibus" trades. However, the ECTRI omnibus should have ECP representations
in the annex.

financial requirements


A financial trade v24545 was done with Total International Limited. This
entity is subsidiary of a very good credit customer, TotalElf (S&P rated
AA-). Risk is acceptable, small volumes, short tenor, but from a legal
standpoint, I do not think this entity is an "Eligible Contract Party" as we
have no guaranty support or financial statements to support trading. I
noticed that quite a bit of financial trades are currently booked in London
with this customer. Does Enron Capital & Trade Resources International Corp.
(London financial) have the same ECP requirements as ENA. If so, I would
like to know how they have established eligibility.
