which figure is comprised of the following: Principal: Interest through Sept. 2, 2005: Fees: Costs: Total: $113,156.60 15,632.82 14,851.20 718.23 $144,358.85

$113,156.60 15,632.82 14,851.20 718.23 $144,358.85
Accordingly, Kit Carson moves the Court to enter judgment in its favor in the
amount of $144,358.85 plus statutory interest, from and after the date of the entry of judgment. As set forth in its Confession of Judgment, Hughs Livestock agrees to the entry of judgment in this amount. 8. Because there is a guaranty of the Hughs Livestock obligation it is not
appropriate for the original promissory note to be cancelled upon the entry of judgment. CERTIFICATION PURSUANT TO L.R.Civ.P. 7.1A 9. By correspondence dated August 9, 2005, e-mail correspondence dated
