You can do what you want, but I still think we should book it. The flexibility in takes is only 10% so your flash to actual will not be that great--certainly less than if you don't book anything. Plus, at least if we book something it will be easier to tell if they do not take the volumes they are supposed to. In addition, per our discussion with Retail--which Dick was in on that meeting--it is unlikely that the sale of the CES-Retail business would occur before September or October, which in my mind means it may not be til the end of the year. This would pretty much get us to the end of the deal term. And finally, what if Chris and/or Dick is gone at some point in time--we need the volume info in there. Obviously it is just my recommendation to book it---you can do what you want. ---------------------- Forwarded by Colleen Sullivan/HOU/ECT on 04/28/2000 08:33 AM --------------------------- From: Steve Jackson 04/27/2000 04:03 PM To: Colleen Sullivan/HOU/ECT@ECT cc: Subject: CES Retail Index Positions FYI, I talked to Chris and Dick about the issue that the CES index positions are not reflected in the books. Chris was concerned about what (firm) volume to book since there is flexibility in the takes. Also, he said he has a strong feeling that CES-Retail may go away in the near future so why book it. Dick agreed that maybe we should not book anything on this right now. So Chris said he will look into this issue early next week and get with me.
