A few weeks ago we met with Sherron to show her PortRAC which she want= ed to use along with some livelink files to assist them in divestiture acti= vity. Her final vision as portrayed by the attached presentation has turne= d into a large database which will take lots of resources to develop and ma= intain which she has indicated by her memo should be supported by my group.= Also, it seems redundant with RAC's existing data plus a lot information = that is maintained by the business units such as Kevin Garland's group. I = am comfortable that we can respond to any data request as well as build a d= ata room if necessary for a big sale/syndication with our our existing data= and our newest tools (PortRAC, COMET, RAC Website, DASH Library, etc.) wi= thout creating another database. Since Sherron has left the group, do you = think that this new database is her idea alone or is it also embraced by Do= nahue? =20 Concerns aside, if you think that this new database is necessary, we are ce= rtainly capable of supporting it. Please let me know your thoughts. =09=09=09=09=09=09=09=09=09=09=09 Regards!

Some of the informa= tion Corp Dev was interested in was financial data for each asset (EBITDA, = NI, debt, etc.) that I think could be added to the PortRac system. The rem= ainder of the data Corp Dev was looking to have on hand electronically was = to be part of a new livelink application that Cornelio was going to help de= velop. The attached ppt file describes the user needs for this development= project. =20 The question is - Who is the new business unit sponsor since I've left the = group? The information is not dissimilar to what RAC/Underwriting maintain= , plus RAC/Underwriting have the right staff to maintain the livelink appli= cation. It's just a matter of getting the right approvals for this additio= nal work load to be budgeted for Rick Carson's group and also having the gr= oup meet with various Corp Dev folks (use the ppt file attached) to establi= sh the support relationship. Please call if you need anything further.

I would like to follow-up = with you regarding the Asset Library. I would like to find out if you are s= till interested in pursuing this project. We left off on issues surrounding= RAC and integrating your operations with them. I have not been aware of an= y decisions regarding this, as well as direction that you wish to go. I loo= k forward to hearing from you. Thanks. Cornelio
