Welcome to 8th International Energy Risk

Management Executive Symposium – 2009
Dear Symposium Participant,

On behalf of Active Communications International I would like to invite you to Central London, Great Britain and 8th
International Energy Risk Management Executive Symposium. This Forum is being specifically developed for Senior
Risk Management, Trading and Finance Professionals within major utilities, energy, gas and power corporations,
investment banks, oil majors, regulators and other energy market participants. We are pleased to invite this group of
Industry Leaders who are successfully implementing risk strategies to stabilize your operation, stay competitive and
build shareholder value. We are delighted to see such a diverse group of representatives from corporate, private,
industrial and government sector, risk management experts, commodity trading Directors, financial analysts, project
developers and academics highlighting market-based mechanisms to solve a complex global problem.

ACI’s premier 8th International Energy Risk Management Executive Symposium will be looking at how to profitably
adapt cutting-edge energy risk management models to the latest market developments. Following the huge success
of last year, this Symposium promises to be even bigger and more tailored to your needs than previous years.
The Energy and Utilities industries are experiencing significant challenges ranging from continued price volatility,
technological advancement, regulatory changes, global competitiveness, political uncertainties and commodity
price fluctuations. In addition to the traditional weather and supply risks, energy companies are also faced with
new security threats, financial and liquidity concerns and an uncertain regulatory environment. Energy companies
need to respond to meet compliance requirements, build brand and company reputation, while sustaining value
through commercial operations and investment strategies. This Forum will be also focusing on improving safety and
reducing losses in the energy industry. These issues will be addresses during 3-day Symposium.

At this Symposium you will hear proven strategies, first hand, from leading organizations, including how:
• EDF ENERGY is implementing a robust risk management infrastructure
• WORLD FUEL SERVICES CORPORATION is building and maintaining a practical, efficient and
effective Risk Management Programme
• JP MORGAN CHASE Suggests some of the ways that you can look at credit risk

Integrated Oil & Gas company – LUKOil experience and discusses world’s financial crisis and its impact
onto oil industry
• KOCH SUPPLY & TRADING sarl. is implementing and advising about Energy hedging policies in a hyper
volatile environment
• IBERDROLA GENERACIOÑ is adapting Generation to new challenges

The sessions, workshop and networking venues are intended to connect you with relevant players to help you
navigate this highly competitive market. Throughout the Symposium, you will hear insight about lessons learned,
business opportunities and alliances that will undoubtedly accompany the journey to a future of Energy Risk.

I look forward to welcoming you to this important Energy Risk Symposium!
