C3 Capital Partners III, L.P.; Notice Seeking Exemption Under 
Section 312 of the Small Business Investment Act, Conflicts of Interest

    Notice is hereby given that C3 Capital Partners III, L.P., 1511 
Baltimore Avenue, Suite 500, Kansas City, MO 64108, 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 Sec.  107.730, Financings 
which constitute Conflicts of Interest of the Small Business 
Administration (``SBA'') rules and regulations (13 CFR part 107). C3 
Capital Partners III, L.P., proposes providing subordinated debt 
financing to Warne Scope Mounts, 9500 SW Tualatin Road, Tualatin, OR 
97062, (``WSM''). The financing by C3 Capital Partners III, L.P. will 
discharge obligations held by C3 Capital Partners II, L.P., LLC.
    This financing is brought within the purview of Sec.  107.730 of 
the regulations because C3 Capital Partners III, L.P. and C3 Capital 
Partners II, L.P. are Associates and C3 Capital Partners II, L.P., 
holds over five percent of the equity in WSM therefore this transaction 
requires 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 
this publication, to the Associate Administrator for Investment and 
Innovation, U.S. Small Business
