I think we are going to have a problem. We were relying for EOL for the first 18 to 24 months
of the curves. Now that EOL trading has slowed down, not sure where we will get prices. (Dynegy??)

Talk to you later.

Subject: Today's Meeting on Curve Validation

Our curve validation process is one of the key items that Arthur Andersen will be reviewing at year end. AA has looked for us to strengthen this process, and Tom Bauer stated about 6 weeks ago that he would be looking closely at this. (His focus may now have been diverted, but I would also anticipate that AA's reviews will have a new intensity about them!)

In preparation for this, I have called a meeting today with the risk leads across all commodities. I want to hear from them in a protected environment today what they are and are not doing regarding curve validation. We will review the recent changes recommended regarding curve validation (from the task force lead by Shona Wilson) and discuss specific action steps to insure that we demonstrate an improved curve validation process. I have a meeting with Shawn Kilcrest and Tom Bauer later this week and, following today's meeting, I hope to give them assurances about progress that has or will be made.

You are welcome to join us in this meeting. If you do not attend, please get with your respective risk leads later today or tomorrow so that you are aware of the current status of curve validation in your area and any improvements that may need to be made quickly.

The meeting will be held as follows: 3:00 - 3:30 PM
ECS 4102 (my office)

Attendees: Jeff Gossett
Stacey White
Sam Leuschen
Scott Mills
John Swinney
Frank Prejean
