The answer to your question to your question is a bit to complicated to set
out in an email.  Have a look at Wooldridge (2010). Econometric Analysis of
Croos section and Panel Data, MIT Press, Section 10.2.2 on page 287.  Given
stochastic y and x and unobserved effect c then the exogeneity condition is
E[y_{it}| x_{i1},  x_{i2},...,  x_{iT}, c_i] = E[y_{it}| x_{it}, c_i]  =
x_{it}\beta + c_i
i.e. once one adds the unobserved effect the requirement is that the
"exogeneity" should go if the fixed effects estimator is OK.  At least this
is what I understand to be the case.

 Hi All,
          I understand Hausamn test is useful to test for endogeneity(though
 of low power). In the presence of endogeneity, do panel  fixed effect
 regressions take account this problem (endogeneity)?. I saying so because I
 understand from explanations in Grelts Users Guide that , panel fixed
 effects regressions are based on the undelying assumption that variables are
 correlated with the error term(endogeneity)?.  Am I correct in my intuition?
         Thanks
