One quick update, the draft consultant report to MOCIE on various City Gas Supply Cost issues has a tentitive conclusion on the dividend limitation. Under the suggested guideline, a company whose debt is less than 200% of its equity would be free to pay whatever dividens it Board of Directors chooses. This would free the key "cash baring" companies within the SK-Enron family to dividend at any level that the shareholders deem appropriate. Mike D. Mark Schroeder@ECT 09/07/2000 08:01 AM To: Mike Dahlke/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT cc: Steven J Kean/NA/Enron@Enron Subject: Korea status report Particularly since Steve got somewhat blindsided by Joe Sutton on the stranded cash issue in Korea, and you have been working on that, among others, I think it would be useful if you would list the 3-6 top priorities, with a candid prognosis of where we can/cannot get to on those issues in the next 6 and 12 months. For example, I think Steve needs to be aware that our JV partner has not shown any interest in providing their necessary support/assistance on the stranded cash issue, as I understtod you, as well as taking a low profile on liberalisation issues and possibly the ROE issue. thanks mcs
