Short Statement: Ex-Im Bank and SBA has recalculated the time and average hourly cost to the Government. Also Ex-Im Bank has received more applications in the last three (3) years and therefore the Government's burden for review has inceased. When Ex-Im Bank submitted the original Supporting Statement in August 2012 we were unaware that we needed to report the fact that Ex-Im Bank collects an application fee for this form. Sections 13 and 15 of the new Supporting Statement reflect the amount of fees collected by Ex-Im Bank.
