The following should give you some talking points and background: Stedman Graham is most noted for being the companion to Oprah Winfrey, however he is CEO of two firms which are in the marketing and educational consulting business. Enron has been discussing using Graham's consulting services for our Associate program to focus on leadership training and develop. We are considering him as a potential advisory board member for Enron Investment Partners. This will be our first meeting with him so we are not yet ready to propose a board seat yet. We also hope that any relationship we develop with him could lead to a connection with Oprah Winfrey for the purpose of further expanding the publicity for EIP and Enron and also to access additional investment dollars. Prior to your meeting we will have introduced him to EIP and Enron so he should be well briefed on the company. I think it would be good if you could focus on the activities of EIP and the reason why Enron would be supportive of this type of business since that is always a question that comes up. I understand that Linda will join us during the meeting and want to talk about the Holocaust Museum and Oprah's potential involvement with it. Also with us will be Danny Lawson whom you have met. Danny was the mayor's chief fund raiser for the last two elections and is very active locally. Last Friday Danny facilitated a meeting between EES and Jew Don Boney for the purpose of moving along the potential energy services contract between EES and the city of Houston. He has been a strong supporter of ours for quite some time and is also a candidate for the advisory board. Danny currently sets on the Cynet board. Please let me know if there is any other information that would be useful Gene
