1. Attached to the forwarded e-mail below please find a link to the demo for
the Five Flags Game. Please note that this is still a work in progress. We still need to prepare the "How to Play" section, for example. Let me assure you that this Section and no other section in the game will include the term "Olympics" or any of the other protected terms that we have been advised to avoid from the various jurisdictions. The front page of the game will include an express disclaimer to the effect of the following: "The Enron Five Flags Down Under game has not been set up in collaboration with any parties, other than Internet Sports Network, Inc." 2. I have attached a draft of the Official Rules for your review. The front page of the game will make clear that by electing to play the game, a participant acknowledges and agrees to be bound by the Official Rules. Please note that the rules make clear that only residents of certain specified jurisdictions are entitled to play. The rules spell out that residents of Japan are entitled to play but are not eligible to receive prizes in excess of 100,000 yen. Anne, please confirm that it is permissible for us to allow Japanese residence to play and to merely limit their eligibility for prize awards. (There will be prizes available that are valued at approx. $5000-$10,000 USD, but if a Japanese resident won the grand prize, he/she would not be awarded such a prize. Instead, in such a circumstance, a Japanese winner probably would be awarded one of the consolation prizes instead.) 3. The game will not be promoted with fliers or other hard-copy marketing materials, after all. Instead, the game will be promoted on the password-protected Trading Screen of EnronOnline. (The game will NOT be promoted on the home page.) All registered users of EnronOnline will be able to see the front page of the game, including residents of Canada, Australia, and any European country where participation in the game is prohibited. 4. The following disclaimer will be included (1) next to the initial hyperlink to the game on the EnronOnline website (to confirm that this is possible; (2) on the front page of the game; and (3) on the registration page. "This game is only available to residents of A, B and C. Furthermore, due to the operation of the law in Japan, we will be unable to award prizes whose value exceeds 100,000 Yen to Japanese residents." The registration page will include a gating function that requires the participant to enter his/her country of residence or principal place of business. PLEASE ADVISE AS TO NECESSARY FORM OF QUESTION -- e.g., country of residence vs. country where business with Enron is conducted If the country selected is not an eligible jurisdiction, the participant will receive a message that he/she is ineligible to play the game due to regulatory restrictions in his/her country of residence and will not be able to play the game. Rachel and Marly: I need to finalize the list of eligible jurisdictions as soon as possible. Here's what I have so far: USA, excluding NY and Florida (Milbank is advising on US issues) UK Germany Switzerland Poland Austria. I thought that Portugal was also in the "approved" category. Please advise as to the status of Portugal, as well as other jurisdictions where we are awaiting approval. If the demo is not sufficiently complete to facilitate the approval process, please notify Dave Samuels so that he can work with the developer to create a more substantially complete demo. 5. From the Canadian and Australian perspective, I merely want to confirm that our disclaimer in (4) above is sufficient to protect Enron from liability in Canada and Australia, as applicable, to gaming laws. I will be in the office through the morning of Tuesday, Aug. 29. Thereafter, through September 9, I will be on vacation. Mark Taylor will be finalizaing all matters relating to the game in my absence. (His e-mail address is mark.taylor@enron.com and his phone number is (713) 853-7459. I look forward to your comments.
