SMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION


Notice Seeking Exemption Under Section 312 of the Small Business 
Investment Act, Conflicts of Interest; Alliance Enterprise Corporation 
License No. 03/03-5066

    Notice is hereby given that Alliance Enterprise Corporation, 2435 
North Central Expressway, Suite 200, Richardson, TX 75080, a Federal 
Licensee under the Small Business Investment Act of 1958, as amended 
(``the Act''), in connection with the financing of a small concern, has 
sought an after-the-fact exemption under Section 312 of the Act and 
Section 107.730, Financings which Constitute Conflicts of Interest of 
the Small Business Administration (``SBA'') Rules and Regulations (13 
CFR 107.730). Alliance Enterprise Corporation provided a $500,000 loan 
to M68 Technologies, Inc. (M68) on May 20, 2005.
    The financing is brought within the purview of Sec.  107.730(a)(1) 
of the Regulations because M68 is an Associate of Alliance Enterprise 
Corporation, inasmuch as sister SBIC MESBIC Ventures, Inc. had 
previously invested in M68 and owned 51.5 percent of the common stock. 
MESVIC Ventures, Inc. and Alliance Enterprise Corporation are 
associates of each other since they are under common control in 
accordance with the definition contained in Section 107.50(4) of the 
Regulations. Both SBICs are wholly-owned by Pacesetter/MVHC, Inc.
    Notice is hereby given that any interested person may submit 
written comments on the transaction to the Associate Administrator for 
Investment, U.S. Small Business Administration, 409 Third Street, SW., 
Washington, DC 20416.

    Dated: October 31, 2006.
Jaime Guzman-Fournier,
Acting Associate Administrator for Investment.
