Included in the data is contact information, expiration dates, product, price, LDC, volumes, as well as number of accounts. Unfortunately STAT is the only database that allows reporting on rate class. I've included that information. As a rule of thumb, STAT generally houses the smaller commercial, HP, the medium commercial, with Altra holding the industrial customers. I hope this helps, Jim Enron Energy Services From: Catherine Woods 05/09/2000 09:37 AM Phone: n/a To: Foster cc: Subject: Re: SoCal Cad Accounts Here is some additional information on the Socal Saga........ ---------------------- Forwarded by Catherine Woods/DUB/EES on 05/09/2000 09:37 AM --------------------------- Jeff Dasovich on 05/08/2000 11:21:37 AM To: Gregory T Adams/HOU/EES@EES cc: Dave Childress/SFO/EES@EES, Catherine Woods/DUB/EES@EES, Ray Hamman/HOU/EES@EES, Timothy J Hamilton/HOU/EES@EES, James Shirley/HOU/EES@EES Subject: Re: SoCal Cad Accounts Thanks for the note, Dave. Sounds at least modestly promising and consistent with Sempra's message that they "want to work to make the market better." Following up on our call last week, and just to ensure that we're not saying anything that gets cross-ways with anything you might be discussing with Ron and Nancy, give me a jingle when you get a chance and let's compare notes. In the past, Socalgas has done a good job of boring into the Company and having different discussions with different folks. Also, Greg, if you have at your fingertips the profile of our California customer base by class in the aggregate---large industrial, commercial, small commercial & rez---that would be extremely useful info to have (i.e., how many, annual demand, average annual demand by class). Finally, I'm assuming that turning back customers as a result of credit problems or lack of profitability is something we do on a consistent basis? Thanks alot.

Catherine, how many of the 30 go back for other than credit or size? Please advise.

They are in charge of the Core Aggregation Transport program. Ron and Nancy have been tasked to encourage customers to switch from the utility. I have been working with them to find ways in which they can promote the program with their customers. They told me that we have been losing core customers back to the utility at a rate of 30 meters per month. I asked them what they could do to help us hold on to these accounts. They might be willing to give us a contact that we could have our customers who have decided to go back to the utility could call who would explain the benefits of being with a marketer and identify high prices as general market conditions. I would have to make this request to them formally and would like to know if CAD would make use of this resource if the Gas Co. would agree to make it available. Dave C.
