Re: Prudential Securities

Bill: To my knowledge, Enron Corp. has never provided a "true comfort
letter" in these situations. ENE has written a vague letter of ENE's
relationship to its sub. It is possible that the current ENE corporate
viewpoint on providing "comfort letters" has changed. Let me know what you
would like for me to do. SS

Sara,

John Glotzbach at Prudential (312-588-5613) has been calling me for credit
support to back futures trading for oil, gas and financial trading. I am not
aware of where our broker agreements stand but it is my understanding that we
will provide a letter of comfort from Enron Corp backing ENA and not a
guaranty. Has this position changed?

Let me know.

Thanks,
Bill
