Jeff,
Below is the link you require for the full trading game which we originally developed to enhance our A&A recruitment, there is also an Origination / Modelling exercise. http://enrontradinggame.corp.enron.com/ The demo lasts for 4 minutes, the full exercise lasts 24 minutes. We will in the next Quarter role out Trading Game 2 a totally interactive exchage for up to 10 people. Whilst the first one was used as a recruitment tool, this one we anticipate using for training purposes too. Here is a test site for it. To make it fun you really need 4/5 people to play, it takes about 10-15 minutes. It has the capability that we could, with further development, load scenario players - Bullish / bearish, different trading strategies etc. http://207.21.194.106/enron2 I was hoping to launch it with a bit of a splash by sending out a note on Global Flash inviting people to log on at a certain time and having heavy weight traders to play with people like yourself, John, Greg, Joe, - with a prize for the best score, you never know what talents we could uncover! Maybe if you like it, you would volunteer your services? Let me know what you think.

I think it was developed by a third party but can't remember ? In any case, if either of you have any knowledge of this app, or who to speak to, please could you let Charles know ? cheers John -----Original Message----- From: Philpott, Charles Sent: 13 June 2001 14:16 To: Paskin, John Subject: Trading Simulation Question Good afternoon Mr. Paskin, I hope all is well in your part of the world. We're doing alright here. I'm still focusing on GCS enhancements (ala PhaseII) but am also working to expand my knowledge of the company and what we do. Yesterday, I attended a talk given by Jeff Shankman (COO of EGM). He discussed a good deal about the business and the constant needs for new talent within their group. During the Q&A that followed his discussion, I asked him about tools that might be helpful in identifying trader candidates and recalled to him a "Trader Simulation" I was allowed to try out on my last trip to London. He was very interested and asked me who to contact about getting access to it. I told him I would find out. Now to the point of my letter: Can you direct me to the contact person for the trader simulation? I would very much appreciate your assistance on this. Regards, Charles
