Notice Seeking Exemption Under Section 312 of the Small Business 
Investment Act, Conflicts of Interest

    Notice is hereby given that Escalate Capital Partners SBIC I, L.P., 
300 W. 6th Street, Suite 2250, Austin, TX 78701, 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 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). 
Escalate Capital Partners SBIC I, L.P. proposes to make a debt 
investment in Windwood I Development Co., Inc., a wholly owned 
subsidiary of Lincoln Renewable Energy, LLC, which is portfolio company 
of its Associate Austin Ventures.
    The financing is brought within the purview of Sec.  107.730(a)(l) 
of the Regulations because Austin Ventures, an Associate of Escalate

Renewable Energy LLC, parent company of Windwood I Development Co., 
Inc. Therefore, this transaction is considered a financing of an 
Associate requiring an exemption.

written comments on the transaction, within 15 days of the date of this 
publication, to the Associate Administrator for Investment, U.S. Small 
Business Administration, 409 Third Street SW., Washington, DC 20416.
