Discussion. Vote on the motion: Commissioner Linville, aye; Commissioner Jacobs, aye; Commissioner Grove, aye; Commissioner Adkins, aye; motion carried. Attorney Lang said, for the record, that he and Mr. Akers had a conversation in reference to the bond purchase agreement. There is an ambiguity as to who would pay the expenses in the event this transaction did not consummate, meaning that for some reason the underwriters did not buy our bonds through no fault of ours. Mr. Akers graciously agreed that that would be their responsibility even though the contract is silent. The reason Attorney Lang raised that issue was because of a bad experience he had on one issue before. Attorney Lang felt the Commission should be aware that that problem has been taken care of and Southeast has cooperated with us in curing . that problem.
