I'm still obtaining the data from McLagan, but as soon as I have it, will be able to let you know how Jane's comp compares with the market. In terms of drawing up the contract, I'll work with Kathy and Michelle. I would suggest that Michelle liase with Hideo Ohta-san at B&M in Tokyo.

I will be in Houston Wednesday-Friday if you wish to meet and discuss. Unfortunately, I don't have market data with me, but should be able to gather some information from McLagan by the end of the week. One issue that needs to be addressed is the unenforceability of fixed term employment contracts in Japan. Under Japanese law, a fixed term contract which is longer than one year binds only the employer - no obligation is created on the part of the employee beyond the first year of the contract. I have some ideas as to how we might address. Let me know if you have time to meet later this week. Thanks, Caroline Caroline Schaeffer Sr. Human Resources Representative Enron Japan caroline.schaeffer@enron.com Alan Aronowitz@ECT 05/15/2001 05:38 AM To: Caroline Schaeffer/AP/Enron@ENRON cc: Sheila Walton/Enron@EnronXGate, Kathy Neal/Enron@EnronXGate Subject: Contract for Jane McBride (Confidential) Last week I spoke with Mark Haedicke (who I report to within Legal), Mike McConnell and Joe Hirl about offering to Jane McBride a two-year employment contract. All three are on board with this idea. Mark will be in Tokyo later this week and early next week (he will be in the Tokyo office on Monday I believe). I want to work with you (and Sheila Walton/Kathy Neal of HR here in Houston) on the contract details. Our internal HR lawyer, Michelle Cash, would also need to be involved in the drafting of the contract working with Japanese outside counsel. Currently, we were thinking about a signing cash amount as well as some stock options at signing. In light of the market, do you have a feel for what those numbers should be? Please feel free to contact me here in the office (713-853-3214) or at home (713-667-0525) as soon as you get this message so we can discuss further. Regards, Alan
