Carol,

West power is looking to do a financial swap with Kaiser Aluminum & Chemical
Corporation ("Kaiser Aluminum") whereby Kaiser Aluminium would buy the swap
and pay ENA float. Kaiser Aluminum International Inc. ("Kaiser
International") has a big market presence in the UK and MG has significant
forward financial and physical metals positions with Kaiser International
which I believe are quite out-of-the-money.

Can we find out whether or not we can perform a bilateral, affiliate NETTING
AGREEMENT between Kaiser International and Kaiser Aluminum with MG and EPMI?
If the UK is going to continue to do short-term new metals business with
Kaiser International and if we can get comfortable with metals forward
positions that are OTM, we would like to use this position and leverage off
of it for trading liquidity in the states. Secondly, does the netting need
to just pertain to global financial business or can it include physical as
well?

If possible, I'd like to see if you and a UK trading attorney can speak about
the overall concept and briefly address any UK and domestic law conflicts.
Please call when you have a opportunity to discuss. ENA is looking to enter
into a power swap for June '01. I'm not sure if this concept is achievable,
and if it is, in the time frame we're facing. However, if we can't do a June
swap, then we'll try for a July swap.

Regards,
Tracy
