This message was sent earlier today to the finance/accounting/operational support people in the group to make them aware that we are in need of slowing down the cash outflow. Your assistance in this regard is important to the success of preserving capital at this critical time. -----Original Message----- From: Hayslett, Rod Sent: Wednesday, November 07, 2001 11:19 AM To: Barnes, Caroline Cc: Lindholm, Tod A.; Sommers, Jeffrey E.; Marlow, Keith; Barnes, Caroline; Brassfield, Morris; Campos, Kathy; Centilli, James; Daily, Pamela; Geaccone, Tracy; Gilbert, Steve; Keiser, John; Peters, Jerry; Rosenberg, David E.; Saunders, James; Tu, Denis Subject: Are we to stop IT spending on equipment upgrades???? All spending that can be delayed needs to be delayed. I want to make it clear that items for health, safety, security and reliability that need to be spent will be spent, if necessary, but all other spending needs to be slowed down as much as possible and delayed until further notice. This is a directive I have just received from Stan. Rod Hayslett EB4054 713-853-6178
