Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 206 / Friday, October 24, 2014 / Notices
pursuant to a May 25, 2012 Purchase
and Sale Contract, subsequently
extended and modified by way of a
Reinstatement and First Amendment to
Purchase and Sale Contract. MassDOT
also states that the agreement does not
contain any provisions that would limit
interchange with a third-party
connecting carrier.
MassDOT certifies that it would not
conduct freight operations over the
Railroad Assets, and therefore,
MassDOT’s prospective annual common
carrier revenues will not result in the
creation of a Class I or Class II carrier.
MassDOT states that it anticipates
consummating the transaction on or
about December 29, 2014, subject to a
Board decision on the concurrently filed
motion to dismiss. The earliest this
transaction may be consummated is
November 9, 2014, the effective date of
the exemption (30 days after the verified
notice was filed).
If the verified notice contains false or
misleading information, the exemption
is void ab initio. Petitions to revoke the
exemption under 49 U.S.C. 10502(d)
may be filed at any time. The filing of
a petition to revoke will not
automatically stay the effectiveness of
the exemption. Petitions for stay must
be filed no later than October 31, 2014
(at least seven days before the
exemption becomes effective).
An original and 10 copies of all
pleadings, referring to Docket No. FD
35863, must be filed with the Surface
Transportation Board, 395 E Street SW.,
Washington, DC 20423–0001. In
addition, a copy of each pleading must
be served on MassDOT’s representative,
Robert A. Wimbish, Fletcher & Sippel
LLC, 29 North Wacker Drive, Suite 920,
Chicago, IL 60606.

Title: Small Business Lending Fund

Abstract: Once accepted into the

submit a Supplemental Report each
quarter. The Supplemental Report
serves two purposes.
First, the Quarterly Supplemental

bank’s initial dividend rate is based on
the increase in small business lending
(over this baseline) in the quarters from
October 2010 through September 2013.
In addition, a bank’s dividend rate is
now locked based on the results from its
increase or decrease of qualified small
business lending (versus the baseline) as
of September 30, 2013.
Second, every quarter thereafter, the
bank files a Supplemental Report
quarterly so that Treasury can assess the
change in the small business lending for
the previous quarter. That change from
