Some further clarifications on IV Issues relating to EnronOnline: 3. "No" is intended to mean there would be no "doing business" exposure to= =20 Enron marketing and transacting via the internet. 5. "No" is intended to mean that the Taiwan counterparty would remain liabl= e=20 for a trade done by an unauthorised person using the Taiwan counterparty's= =20 password. My proposed summary would be: Taiwan Generally free to trade physical/derivatives oil and metals. Certain commodities may be restricted/prohibited. Await additional advice o= n=20 which commodities are restricted/prohibited. Importer's responsibility to obtain approval for restricted/prohibited=20 commodities. Local counterparties are permitted to purchase USD50 million each calendar= =20 year beyond which Central Bank approval required on a case by case basis. Possible withholding tax impact (up to 20%) on deivatives income.

If you need any further information, please= =20 let me know. It may be sensible at this stage also to ask counsel whether= =20 there are any restrictions concerning other physical crude products (not ju= st=20 liquid fuel). In the interests of time, you might find it quicker to put i= n=20 a call to counsel on these points. If you could also prepare a short description for the purposes of the=20 EnronOnline weekly report (say by this Thursday) - this should be reasonabl= y=20 simple since few issues appear to remain.
