While I would not recommend amending any executed MNA's for this purpose,
it probably makes sense to include such a representation  going forward.
It could be a simple as: "Counterparty [is] [is not] a "transmitting
utility" within the meaning of Section 9-102(a) of the Uniform Commercial
Code."

Do you mean that we should include a rep re the fact that they're not a
transmitting utility in the Master Netting Agreement?  The MNA has already
been executed, and there is no such rep in the agreement.  Is this a rep
that should be included in our form of MNA?  If so, I'll need to let Mary
Cook know that the form needs to be revised.

As per Mary Cook's e-mail of last week, I believe that Marie Heard and/or
Tana Jones will centralize the process of obtaining the organizational ID
numbers.  Marie, please confirm with Lech.

   You should probably ask them about their status as a transmitting
   utility.
   They should provide a related representation in the agreement.

   Insofar as we are working on numerous filings, I wonder if it would be
   efficient to "centralize" the process of obtaining the organizational ID
   numbers with my paralegal, who, as previously noted, can get the numbers
   from CT Corp.  As you know, this will cost $12 per entity, but might
   well
   save money by streamlining the process.  Please advise.

   Thank you.

   Lech:

      Attached please find the Collateral Annex to the Reliant Master
   Netting
      Agreement -- didn't realize you needed to see it as well.  By this
      e-mail, I am requesting that Marie coordinate with you to get you
      Reliant's organizational ID number.  How do I go about confirming
   that
      Reliant Energy Services, Inc. is not a transmitting utiltity?

      Local counsel will handle the Canadian entity.

      Regards,

      Leslie Hansen

      As a threshold  matter, I note that the basic purpose of the UCC
   filings
      is
      to "belt and suspender" the cross-party netting provisions of the MNA
   by
      having the counterparty(ies) grant  a security interest in the
      counterparty's receivables from Enron.  This is typically
   accomplished
      through the grant  of a security interest in "Obligations" under the
      MNA.

      In this case, however, I do not find in the Collateral provisions
      (Section
      6) the Obligations included.  Is this collateral covered in a related
      Collateral Annex?  Alternatively, is this omission an oversight , or
   a
      deliberate choice by the parties?  If we do intend to have a security
      interest in the counterparty's receivables, and these are not picked
   up
      in
      the CA, the MNA should be revised accordingly.

      Also, if we are going to file against the receivables, we will need
   to
      know
      the "organizational ID" number of Reliant Energy Services Inc., and
   its
      address.  Regarding the Canadian entity, I assume you will consult
   with
      local counsel.

      Finally, we would also need to confirm for UCC filing purposes that
   the
      Delaware entity is not a "transmitting utility", i.e., an entity
      primarily
      engaged in the production or transmission of electricity or the
      transmission of goods by pipeline.

      Thank you.

      As per my voice mail, Enron will enter into a Master Netting
   Agreement
      with Reliant.  The two Reliant entities that will be covered by the
      agreement are listed below.  RES is headquartered in Houston, Texas.

      Attached please find the latest draft of the MNA for your reference.
