Although formally only two AEP entities are party to the MNA, AEPSC is
acting as agent for a number of affiliates.  This raises, to my mind at
least, the possibility that those subsidiaries would be considered the real
"debtors" for UCC purposes.

Accordingly, I believe the prudent course is to file against each named
subsidiary, as well as against  AEPSC and AEPSI.  To do so, we will need
the subsidiaries' respective addresses, jurisdictions of organization and
"organizational ID" number (if organized in Colorado, Delaware, Maryland or
Texas), and confirmation that each is, as certainly appears to be the case,
a "transmitting utility" under the UCC, i.e., an entity primarily engaged
in the production or transmission of electricity or the transmission of
goods through a pipeline.

Thank you.
