Happy as a clam after "winning" the 2006 ERNST & YOUNG ENTREPRENEUR OF THE YEAR AWARD (New England region - energy category - June 15, 2006). Around the time that, according to the IFIC Complaint, Meiya Power Company:
"...Fund was in financial distress. The one-year loan time-period permitted by Desdner was about to expire. Al-Mazeedi's planned third round of equity fund raising, with migration from prior BTU groups' funds, was unsuccessful." - April 2006 (Paragraph 7)
"...Dresdner noticed an event of default on August 31, 2006..." (Paragraph 8)
"By the early fall of 2006, the financial investment of all the investors in the Fund, including that of Plaintiffs, was completely exposed to ruin by virtue of Al-Mazeedi's operational control of the Fund." (Paragraph 9)
