Small Business Administration collects
the information on form 1149 from lenders as part of their request
for purchase of the guaranty on a defaulted 7(a) loan. SBA uses the

default and to assess how much interest is payable to the lender.

properly disbursed and serviced, and whether payments were applied
to principal and interest in compliance with the Loan Guaranty
Agreement, and the terms and conditions of the loan
authorization.
