408F. Avici was, in substance and effect, a loan of Thirty-Four million Three HundredTwenty-Nine Thousand Eight Hundred Eight Dollars ($34,329,808.00) rather than a sale. Underthe Total Return Swap Agreement, ENA retained the benefits and costs of fluctuations in the valueof the Avici Shares, and Barclays received fixed payments that were equivalent to principal andinterest on the Barclays Loan.408G. At the time Avici closed, both the Insiders and Barclays knew that the Insiders’failure to record it as a loan would be misleading to Enron’s creditors.

(“JJB-I”)and JJB-II Asset L.L.C. (“JJB-II”). In exchange, EBIC-Apache received: (a) Class A memberinterests in JJB-I and JJB-II, representing 100% of the voting power and .01% of the economicinterests in those entities, and (b) preferred distributions of Nineteen million Four HundredThousand Dollars ($19,400,000.00) and Sixteen million Dollars ($16,000,000.00), the funds forwhich were provided by JGB Trust as set forth below.604041v1/007457-136-
