An “impacted borrower” which means an “eligible recipient” who is in business on 2/15/20 and applies for a loan between 2/15/20 and 6/30/20.
An impacted borrower is presumed to have been adversely impacted by COVID-19 but will be required to make a good faith certification that they have been affected by COVID-19.

Covered Loans
Loans may be taken for the lessor of (i) $10M or (ii) the business’s average total monthly payroll costs during the one-year period prior to the loan being made multiplied by 2.5. Funds must be used to retain workers and maintain payroll and other debt obligations.
The loan covers employees’ salaries up to $100K a year, if the business does not lay off its employees (if scaled down it affects forgiveness as noted below) and maintains an average number of employees during the covered period that is no less than the number it had before the crisis began.
No evaluation of borrower’s ability to repay, no collateral and no personal guaranties. No lender fees. Interest rates are capped at 4% and there are no payments of principal or interest for 6 months.
