Re: CES Retail Energy Sale

Occasionally, when I have a question, I call my little EES buddies to get a
better understanding of a specific LDC. I don't mention CES and I assume
that's ok.

This is just a reminder that there is a confidentiality agreement between ENA
and CES regarding the retail business that prohibits ENA wholesale from
discussing any aspect of the CES Retail business with EES. If you receive
any calls from EES people about the CES retail business, please inform them
of this prohibition on discussions. If we receive consent from CEG/Nisource
at some point in time, I will let you know. Thank you.

I have confirmed after talking with Jeff Hodge that ENA and EES cannot
discuss anything regarding the CES retail business. Both the CA and the
Retail Agreement have sections that explicity mention that ENA has to keep
information confidential. I talked with Jeff Golden, who is working on the
EES side and mentioned that there can be no discussions between EES and ENA
regarding the CES Retail business without first gaining the written consent
of Nisource/CEG.

Jeff - If I have misstated anything, please let me know.
