At some point very soon, we need to talk about how the whole range of
contacts that need to be made in D.C. will be made- Hillings does not know
about the deal as far as I know. Let's talk before the end of the week.
Thanks.

Because this whole issue is important to of our projects -Gaza, Guatemala, I
wanted you to have an idea of the strategies being considered. Nothing is
definitive, they want to lay our the risks and approaches necessary to
protect all projects and relationships. If you have any thoughts concerning
the approach, let me know! I will keep you posted as things unfold.

Keith
Following on our conversation, let me propose a couple of guiding factors in
terms of a communications strategy for summer for Washington. The overriding
consideration should be to give OPIC operating flexibility to work with us in
accomplishing our financing objectives without a lot of scrutiny from others
around Washington that might be interested in getting political benefit from
putting OPIC's political management on the hot seat. We will be meeting with
OPIC shortly after the announcement to set out the reasons why nothing much
has changed. Our objective I think around Washington should be to quietly
inform our friends and other critical players so that no one is surprised by
learning of the shift and no one considers it to be a big deal. So I would
propose that after meeting with OPIC we make the rounds and talk to our
contacts at State, DOE, Treasury, the Executive Directors at the World Bank
and the IDB, EXIM and the other agencies as well as the appropriate staffers
on the Hill that might have cause to comment on OPIC's decisions. In each
case we should be laying out the arguments why this transaction makes sense
and why in the end nothing much has changed. Hope this helps. Thanks John

John: I understand that you are in the know about Summer. Therefore, could
I prevail on you to provide me with a list of the names and titles of those
from the aforementioned groups who we should consider sending a letter to
inform them of the transaction. I assume it would be the U.S. Executive
Director, of World Bank and IDB, plus OPIC President. You know better than
me, so I'll stand by. Your input will be included in a workbook we are
developing for a major communications rollout plan--both internal and
external. Thanks, Keith
