It's pretty darn old and pretty ugly.
1. It's a Local Currency Form, so we cannot transact cross border/cross currency products under it. 2. We have a 3rd Party Cross Default to Enron Corp. of $25,000,000 3. We've got market quotation for terminations 4. No arbitration language 5. Hard to believe, but we've made no choice of law election 6. Don't have trade option rep (which probably doesn't matter anymore) 7. ISDA Defintions refer to 1987 Interest Rate & Currency Exchange Agreement 8. Setoff language old and doesn't have affiliate language in it 9. Market Disruption Events not standard 10. Old "ERMS" Collateral Annex 11. $10,000,000 Exposure Threshold 12. Credit Event Upon Merger triggers -0- threshold 13. LC Only Annex - really old LC language/forms everywhere This is basically a REALLY old, it looks like heavily negotiated, form. This might be a good time to replace it. I don't know how much trading we do with Apache.

From: Tana Jones on 01/25/2001 02:23 PM To: Tanya Rohauer/HOU/ECT@ECT cc: Subject: Re: Fletcher Challenge/Apache Assignment Don't know about the Shell intermediary part. I hope that will be spelled out in his email. Also, we have about a 5 year old Local Currency ISDA in Place with them, so we could put the trades under that master. I don't know if we want to upgrade the master at this time, or just stay where we are. He said we didn't have a master w/Apache, but when entered my notes into lotus notes I noticed we did. I called him back, he didn't know ERMS was the same as ENA.

In actuality, I think they are about the same quality as Fletcher, regardless of Saul's comments. What is the purpose of the Shell for a day transaction? From: Tana Jones on 01/25/2001 01:49 PM To: Tanya Rohauer/HOU/ECT@ECT cc: Subject: Fletcher Challenge/Apache Assignment Per a conversation I just had with Saul Laureles, an attorney with Chamberlain, Hrdlicka, who has been hired to assist Apache/Shell with the assignment of the Fletcher Challenge business. He said: Fletcher Challenge would like to assign their petro business to Shell Holdings for a short time (like one day or so). Shell would then immediately transfer the agreement/transactions to Apache. He proposes we get a new master in place with Apache, since Apache is a better credit than Fletcher Challenge. He said he will send me some letter showing how he would like to do this, along with a draft Apache ISDA (without collateral, of course, since Apache is such a good credit). I told him that I can't speak for Credit, but we probably are going to have a big problem on that last point. We never enter into masters without a collateral annex attached. I'll keep you posted when I hear from him.
