Enron Please note the counter settlement offer set forth in the email below by our local counsel in the Gignilliat Charge of Discrimination matter. I recommend that we settle the matter for $7,500 or a little less if we can get there. I think it is your Company's money so I will defer to you on this one. Please advise. Kriste K.

Enron Hi Kriste, As we discussed, I offered Gignilliat a $5,000 nuisance value settlement. Gignilliant's counsel, after consulting with his client, said he would take $7,500 to settle the case. While I think Enron has a very strong defense to the disability claim, I am less certain about the aiding and abetting claim. As we discussed, the Mass. Commission Against Discrimination allowed Gignilliat to amend his charge to add this claim. Gignilliat may be able to create enough of a fact contest about what the plant manager (Dennis Sherrin) told ANP about his disability to at least get past the probable cause stage. While I still think that in the end, Enron has a very good chance of prevailing on the aiding and abetting claim, $7,500 is a good, final resolution to avoid further litigation. Let me know what you think. Thanks, Suzanne M. Suppa Bingham Dana LLP 150 Federal Street Boston, MA 02110 (617) 951-8976
