Vince Mark Courtney 05/17/2000 03:48 PM To: Vince J Kaminski/HOU/ECT@ECT cc: Joe Gordon/Corp/Enron@Enron Subject: FMRC Vince, I ran across this during my recruiting at Vanderbilt. It is headed by Hans Stoll, one of the leading derivative academicians in the country. I looked at their website briefly and thought you might be interested. I have also forwarded some email correspondence between Dr. Stoll and Joe Gordon, one of our Associates and a former student of his at Owen School. We have been very successful lately in recruiting at Vanderbilt, both at the undergrad and MBA levels, and have gotten some high quality people. Please let me know if you have any interest in this and I would be glad to follow up with Dr. Stoll or help out in any way I can. Thank you, Mark Courtney ---------------------- Forwarded by Mark Courtney/HOU/ECT on 05/17/2000 03:42 PM --------------------------- Enron North America Corp.

Thanks, Joe ---------------------- Forwarded by Joe Gordon/Corp/Enron on 05/11/2000 08:42 AM --------------------------- Hans Stoll on 03/20/2000 12:22:36 PM To: "'Joe.Gordon@enron.com'" cc: Subject: RE: FMRC Joe, Thanks for your note. The purpose of the FMRC is to stimulate research on financial markets and to provide a link between academic research, real world issues and regulation. Members of the center sit on the advisory board and help direct the research of the center. They send an unlimited number of participants to center conferences. Our center is unique in its mix of academics, practitioners and regulators. For members, such as Enron, it provides a window on the academic world, and would give Enron an opportunity to stimulate research in the use of markets in heretofore unusual commodities. More information on the center can be found at http://mba.vanderbilt.edu/fmrc/ Center members include, NYSE, Nasdaq, CME, some high tech trading firms, Merrill Lynch.... Joining the center usually requires a top management decision, but I would approach it through the research and the trading areas. One way to start is to see if anyone in a position to recommend joining the center would like to attend this year's conference on April 13 -14. The program is on the web site. (Membership is $10,000 per year) Appreciate your interest and help. Let me know if we should provide more detail to someone.

Our holdup is determining who is the appropriate contact person at Enron (that, and neglect). We're not sure if we should approach someone from trading, research, senior management, etc. Also, any additional information on the role the participating firms play would be helpful. Thanks, Joe Gordon
