Martin sent this message to London and Michael advised that Sullivan &
Cromwell be retained. With respect to interest by the CFTC in the proposed
transaction, would you agree that the same law firm advise on that issue as
well? Makes sense to me. Also, what is Energydesk.com LImited? Sara

Sara,

I hope you're doing well. Please see my note to Paul below. It feels a bit
like an overkill to turn directly to Sullivan & Cromwell (as suggested by
Micheal) in respect of a USD 1.25 million transaction. The target consists
of about a dozen employees and its business is to advise local energy
companies on appropriate risk management structures and routines. My
understanding is that the target never advises on what trading positions its
customers should take. Could there possibly be an interest for the CFTC in
this worth investigating further?! I believe the Energydesk.com Limited
people intend to let Japro survive and continue its current operations (as
well as serving Energydes.com's customers in the future). Please advise!

Martin

Paul,

The above entity is a Swedish limited liability company which Energydesk.com
Limited intends to acquire. According to the company's Articles, it may
prepare analyses, give information, and engage in advisory and consulting
activities with respect to risk management, energy and power trading; carry
out strategic and other analyses and advise on strategic and organisation
development; engage in IT based consulting as well as in any other activity
ancillary with any the foregoing. Principally, the company acts as a risk
management consultant for small and medium seized energy companies in the
Sweden and Finland.

Will the acquisition give rise to any SFA concerns?! Despite the general
extraterritorial application of US securities laws, I'd guess an acquisition
of a minor Swedish-based operation active in the Nordic market by a U.K.
entity would be too remote to cause attraction over there. I may check it
anyhow, but do you have a feel for the topic?

Martin
