Interesting. I remember vaguely that we had some concern with how VAR was
calculated. I recall that Dave Neubauer didn't think that we were doing it
right for TW. Do you remember this issue? If so, does this change address
the same issue? Also, I'll line up a meeting today or tomorrow on the TW
options filing in general, and we can discuss the customer meeting and also
touch on this internal controls issue. Thanks DF

Please Note:

The Corporate Risk Management Department prepares ET&S's Value at Risk
calculation. They recently completed a review of our historical experience
and correlation on our hedged positions. Based on this review, we have
agreed to increase the correlation to .90. This change has caused the V@R to
decrease significantly to more appropriately reflect the risk in our
positions. We will continue to work with Risk Management to assure that our
exposures are being appropriately reflected in the V@R calculation.

If there are any question regarding the V@R calculation, please contact Dan
Fancler or Bob Chandler.
