By copy of this email, I am asking the Credit team to put Nicor Gas Company
(CP ID #61057) on the daily approval matrix as an amendment. This will
enable Tana to approve Nicor for financial trading, and allow the appropriate
physical and financial contracts to be applied ( per the note below) by the
Global Contracts team.

Karen - If you don't mind, please apply all contracts to all product type
categories (as opposed to just the amended product types). This will allow
PCG to ensure that Nicor is set-up correctly.

Thanks for everyone's help in resolving this issue!!!

Frank

Subject: EnronOnline-Nicor Gas Company

As you all are probably aware, we trade physical and financial products with
Northern Illinois Gas Company under each of the following names:

1 Northern Illinois Gas Company (the legal incorporated entity)
2. Nicor Gas Company (an assumed name for Northern Illinois Gas Company as
reflected in the Assumed Name Certificate dated 12/15/99 filed with the
Secretary of State of Illinois. The name needs to match the Assumed Name
Certificate, no "Co.")
3. Northern Illinois Gas Company d/b/a Nicor Gas Company

The EnronOnline counterparty has been set up as "Nicor Gas Company".

Pursuant to Bob Bruce's conversation with our Illinois outside counsel, we
are comfortable transacting business in the State of Illinois under the
assumed name "Nicor Gas Company". In connection therewith, it is OK to set
up the online entity as "Nicor Gas Company", and attach the relevant physical
or financial products to the relevant master under each of the above
counterparty names. Further, it will be OK if the confirmations go out as
"Nicor Gas Company" even though the masters may be under one of the above
names.

PLEASE NOTE, HOWEVER, this should be considered an exception to the rule. We
do not want counterparties to be set up under assumed names, d/b/a's or
divisions for EnronOnline. As previously agreed with the Online team, every
attempt should be made to incorporate the legal name as part of the
counterparty name (such as "Northern Illinois Gas Company d/b/a Nicor Gas
Company" or "Koch Industries, Inc. acting through its Koch Hydrocarbon
Company Division"). Any exceptions to this should be run by Legal for
approval.
