    The financing is brought within the purview of Sec.  107.730(a) of

interest in Rock Energy Systems, LLC of greater than 10 percent. 
Therefore, Rock Energy Systems, LLC is an Associate of Aldine Capital

In addition, proceeds of this transaction will be used, in part, to 
discharge obligations to Associates Aldine SBIC Fund, L.P. and Aldine 
Capital Fund, L.P. Both characteristics of this transaction require 
prior SBA exemption.
    Notice is hereby given that any interested person may submit 
written comments on the transaction, within fifteen days of the date of
