I have received 4 calls in the past 24 hours. Listed below are the= key people comprising the Enron Wholesale Services Tax Planning Group, in = addition to myself, who possess significant institutional knowledge of Enro= n's tax position and whose continued employment with Enron (regardless of i= ts altered state) is critical. For example, Morris Clark and Jeff Blumenth= al were key members of the team that, with me, designed and implemented Pro= ject Slapshot, the continued maintenance of which stands to provide Enron w= ith over $100 million of tax savings. I have not spoken with other members= of the Enron Tax Department about this matter and, rather, I have come to = you to obtain proper guidance since the continued employment of the below l= isted employees directly affects my ability to manage the EWS tax position.= As you can appreciate, time is of the essence. I look forward to speakin= g with you. Senior Directors: =09Morris Clark =09Kevin Liss =09Susan Musch =09Bret Wells Directors: =09Jeff Blumenthal Specialist: =09Melanie Hutchinson =09
