(1) GRANTS the Plaintiff's Motion for Entry of Default [Judgment ] [ECF No. 102];
(2) DIRECTS the Clerk to ENTER JUDGMENT in favor of Plaintiffs Wabash Power Equipment Co. and Nickelson Industrial Service, Inc., and against Defendants BTU State Line, LLC, BTU Solutions DE, LLC, and State Line Energy, LLC, in the sum of $5,016,105.69.
