Rob, thanks for the update - I am assuming that you will come up with $23M
Cdn ($16M USD) - "highly likely" with PML. We do not have recorded in the
financial statements the $8M Cdn in done deals - you may want to look into
that.

We need the money to show up given every other Enron group is flaking - bail
me out my friend!

Regards
Delainey

Dave, Origination & Finance has booked roughly C$8MM Quarter to Date.

For the remainder of the quarter, I will attempt to give you a break-down
based on probability:

"Highly Likely"
Done Deals C$8MM
Papier Masson Service Fee Income C$1MM
PCOG Strategic Alliance Extension C$2MM
Chippawa Capacity Assignment C$1MM
Misc. Marketing Deals C$1MM
Total C$13MM

"Probable"
Papier Masson Write-up/Monetization C$10MM (ECC's share only)
MAP Auction C$2MM
Blue Range Final Dividend C$1MM
Calpine Capacity Assignment C$2MM (ECC's share only)
Total C$15MM

"Unclear"
Tax Mitigation C$10MM
Turbine Sale C$2MM
Clarica Funding Deal for PPA C$1MM
Total C$13MM

Papier Masson is proceding nicely,as the owners have agreed to sell the asset
. The owners have also agreed to a structure in principle, whereby they have
determined a range that they are willing to sell at. If enron exceeds the
range, they are bound to sell it to Houston P&P group. If we bid inside the
range they then have 8 weeks to shop us, and if they dont receive any offers,
enron buys the mill at our bid less C$5MM. If they shop us and receive a
third party offer, they pay enron a break fee of C$5MM. If they close with a
third party, we receive an additional C$10MM. At a minimum, this provides us
with a fair market valuation by an independent/outside party that we can use
as our basis for writing up the asset. Secondly, it allows the P&P group to
bid without being a stalking horse as it provides for hefty break fees and
significant earnings on closing.

With regards to tax mitigation, I will have a better idea by the end of this
week. The tax guys are up from Houston and we will be working on it the
remainder of the week.

fyi...British Energy is now worth <C$100MM at the desk's bid. We are still
working toward a May 1, 2001 market opening. Support for a may 1 start is
mounting and has become a very public topic consistently referring to May 1.

Regards
Milnthorp
