I thought we were dealing with Avista.

Their equity partner, BP Amoco, indicated that they need 30 more days to "get comfortable with the market". This thirty day period coincides with the expected financial close of June 15 so it may just be posturing to let us know that they are not committed until the deal actually closes. Nevertheless, we (Avista and Enron) will pursue fallback investors that have already seen the project and previously expressed interest in a 50% share. In parallel, we will try to get BP Amoco "comfortable". It might make sense to consider someone else that can move quickly. Deal probability drops from 80% to 50%. LVCogen: Vickers and Gilbert met with Sierra Pacific and confirmed their interest in and ability to effect a restructuring of the PPA. Although timing of "securitization" is open-ended, Sierra has agreed to a contract valuation that supports a valuation uplift of $10MM - $14MM. If we assume a 40%-50% probability of restructuring, we get to the hotlisted $5MM gain for QII. Attached is a spreadsheet that shows the breakup value of LVCogen. CTG and Power Structuring are finalizing the RAC models that support this approach. Regards, Chris
