Rizkalla, Ph.D. November 30, 2000 12118 Knobcrest Dr. Houston, Texas 77070 e-mail: Adel.Rizkalla@enron.com Extension: 55841 Attention: MR. STEVE KEAN MS. CINDY OLSON =20 Dear Mr. Kean and Ms. Olson: I am privileged and delighted for providing me with this opportunity of=20 writing directly to both of you, while I am on re-deployment status. The purpose of this letter is to respectfully appeal to both of you to plea= se=20 help me continue serving Enron and continue being an active manager within= =20 this most challenging environment, as I feel I am most qualified. I joined Enron EE&CC on March 1, 2000; now am an EES employee. I am a=20 Mechanical Engineer, with 32 years work experience and extraordinary track= =20 record in the oil & gas and power generation EPC business worldwide, with= =20 major global organizations. =20 I hold a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering (specifically in the Gas Turbines= =20 Technology). I have been a Project Manager, Senior Project Manager, and=20 Project Director on major multi-million Dollar onshore and offshore=20 development projects since 1980, in every hydrocarbons producing region. I was interviewed at Enron=01,s EE&CC in mid February 2000 pursuant to my= =20 application for Project Manager/Senior Project Manager position. =20 I was then hired on March 1, 2000 as Project Engineering Manager (PEM), und= er=20 quite urgent circumstances, to be in charge of all three (3) major and most= =20 active Power Projects at EE&CC in Brazil. Just one (1) week later, after m= y=20 new hires orientation, I had to join a delegation and travel to Brazil for= =20 Due Diligence of Local Engineering and Construction Contractors. =20 The Expected NTP was January 2001, and the life of these foreign Projects= =20 (except for Electrobolt =01) simple cycle plant) is three (3) to four (4) y= ears,=20 i.e. until the year 2003 and 2004. These Projects are RioGen, Cuiaba II, a= nd=20 Electrobolt. I was attracted to Enron due to its standing and recognition in the industr= y,=20 reputation, globalization, and active market penetration. In fact, I felt= =20 very fortunate to become the center of the above-mentioned challenges with= =20 three such major Enron Power Projects. I resigned my then current and very secure position as Senior Project Manag= er=20 at Solar Turbines Incorporated (a Caterpillar company), after almost 6=20 successful years, where I was entrusted with Solar=01,s major turnkey power= and=20 gas compression projects, worldwide.=20 My prime objective and priority then, when I accepted to work for Enron wer= e,=20 clearly, to tackle and continue with the new challenges that Enron offered = me=20 until the year 2003 =01) 2004. =20 However, I am still very optimistic and hopeful that, with your kind suppor= t,=20 I am hoping to receive due consideration of this appeal. I have already interviewed with Messrs. Steve Meyers and Dave Roberts at EE= S,=20 and both believe that they are certainly in need of a strong technical pers= on=20 like myself, but no confirmation has been received yet. I have also applied to at least fifteen (15) pertinent positions within EES= ,=20 ENA, and Enron Transportation but, unfortunately, have received no response= =20 yet. Nevertheless, I am most certain that you do not want to loose a knowledgeab= le=20 and active member of your team, and I am most confident that you can assist= =20 placing me in a position where I can contribute most positively to Enron=01= ,s=20 continued success and profitability. Sincerely, Adel Attachments:
