Enron Extends EnronOnline Pricing to HoustonStreet

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Wednesday, July 12, 2000

HOUSTON -- Enron announced today that it has signed a memorandum of understanding to extend EnronOnline pricing for North American natural gas and electricity to HoustonStreet Exchange, Inc. Enron will simultaneously post prices at which it will buy or sell natural gas and electricity on both EnronOnline and HoustonStreet. Customers will be able to transact on either system. EnronOnline, which has conducted transactions worth more than $90 billion in 2000, will continue to post two-way prices for more than 800 products in global energy and commodities markets.

“Enron believes that by extending the availability of its North American natural gas and electricity pricing to other transaction platforms, liquidity will continue to be enhanced and Enron will be able to transact with more buyers and sellers,” said Louise Kitchen, president and chief operating officer of EnronOnline LLC.
