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. ---------------------- Forwarded by Richard Shapiro/HOU/EES on 08/03/2000 07:22 AM --------------------------- Dennis Vegas@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT 08/02/2000 07:54 PM To: Daniel Castagnola/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT cc: Richard Shapiro@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT Subject: Re: Key Contacts in IFIs and OPIC 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. ---------------------- Forwarded by Dennis Vegas/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT on 08/02/2000 07:41 PM --------------------------- Keith Miceli@ENRON 08/02/2000 05:26 PM To: Steven J Kean@EES, Mark Palmer/Corp/Enron@ENRON, Karen.Denne@enron.com, Dennis Vegas/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT, Johan Zaayman/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT, John Ambler/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT, Henry.Means@enron.com cc: Subject: Re: Key Contacts in IFIs and OPIC FYI.

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 Keith Miceli@ENRON 08/02/2000 03:06 PM To: John Hardy/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT cc: Subject: Key Contacts in IFIs and OPIC 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
