the Small Business Investment Act, Conflicts of Interest

    Notice is hereby given that RFE VI SBIC, L.P. (``RFE VI SBIC''), 36 
Grove Street, New Canaan, CT 06840, a Federal Licensee under the Small 
Business Investment Act of 1958, as amended (``the Act''), in 
connection with the proposed financing of a small concern is seeking 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 (1998)).
    An exemption may not be granted by SBA until Notices of this 
transaction have been published. RFE VI SBIC proposes to provide equity 
financing to TradeSource, Inc., 75 Holly Hill Lane, Greenwich, CT, 
06830. The financing is contemplated to fund an acquisition and to 
provide a capital base for continued growth.
    The financing is brought within the purview of section 
107.730(a)(1) of the Regulations because RFE Investment Partners V, 
L.P., an Associate of RFE VI SBIC, owns greater than 10 percent of 
TradeSource, Inc. and therefore TradeSource, Inc. is considered an 
Associate of RFE VI SBIC as defined in section 107.50 of the 
Regulations.
    Notice is hereby given that any interested person may, not later 
than fifteen (15) days from the date of publication of this Notice, 
submit written comments on the proposed transaction to the Associate 
Administrator for Investment, U.S. Small Business Administration, 409 
Third Street, SW, Washington, DC 20416.
    A copy of this Notice shall be published, in accordance with 
section 107.730(g), in the Greewich Times, in Greenwich, Connecticut by 
RFE VI SBIC.
