Disclosure is voluntary and will have no bearing on the loan forgiveness decision
By Signing Below, You Make the Following Representations and Certifications on Behalf of the Borrower:
The authorized representative of the Borrower certifies to all of the below by initialing next to each one. The terms “payroll” and
“payroll costs” as used in the below certifications include proprietor expenses (business expenses plus owner compensation) for
Borrowers that applied for loans using SBA Form 2483-C or 2483-SD-C.
The dollar amount for which forgiveness is requested (which does not exceed the principal amount of the PPP loan):
• was used to pay business costs that are eligible for forgiveness (payroll costs to retain employees; business
mortgage interest payments; business rent or lease payments; business utility payments; covered operations
expenditures; covered property damage costs; covered supplier costs; or covered worker protection expenditures);
• includes all applicable reductions due to decreases in the number of full-time equivalent employees and
salary/hourly wage reductions;
• includes payroll costs equal to at least 60% of the forgiveness amount;
• for any owner-employee (with an ownership stake of 5% or more) or self-employed individual/general partner,
does not exceed 2.5 months’ worth of compensation received during the year used to calculate the PPP loan
amount, capped at $20,833 per individual in total across all businesses.
I understand that if the funds were knowingly used for unauthorized purposes, the federal government may pursue recovery
of loan amounts and/or civil or criminal fraud charges.
The Borrower has accurately verified the payments for the eligible payroll and nonpayroll costs for which the Borrower is
requesting forgiveness.
I have submitted to the Lender the required documentation verifying payroll costs, the existence of obligations and service
(as applicable) prior to February 15, 2020, and eligible business mortgage interest payments, business rent or lease
payments, business utility payments, covered operations expenditures, covered property damage costs, covered supplier
costs, and covered worker protection expenditures.

on eligible expenses prior to disbursement of the Second Draw PPP Loan.
The information provided in this application and the information provided in all supporting documents and forms is true
and correct in all material respects. I understand that knowingly making a false statement to obtain forgiveness of an
SBA-guaranteed loan is punishable under the law, including 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 3571 by imprisonment of not more than
five years and/or a fine of up to $250,000; under 15 U.S.C. 645 by imprisonment of not more than two years and/or a fine

more than thirty years and/or a fine of not more than $1,000,000.
The tax documents I have submitted to the Lender (if applicable) are consistent with those the Borrower has
submitted/will submit to the IRS and/or state tax or workforce agency. I also understand, acknowledge, and agree that
the Lender can share the tax information with SBA’s authorized representatives, including authorized representatives
of the SBA Office of Inspector General, for the purpose of ensuring compliance with PPP requirements and all SBA
reviews.
I understand, acknowledge, and agree that SBA may request additional information for the purposes of evaluating the
Borrower’s eligibility for the PPP loan and for loan forgiveness, and that the Borrower’s failure to provide information
requested by SBA may result in a determination that the Borrower was ineligible for the PPP loan or a denial of the
Borrower’s loan forgiveness application.
_____

If the Borrower has checked the box for FTE Reduction Safe Harbor 1 on PPP Schedule A, the Borrower was unable
to operate between February 15, 2020 and the end of the Covered Period at the same level of business activity as
before February 15, 2020 due to compliance with requirements established or guidance issued between March 1, 2020
and December 31, 2020 (or, for a PPP loan made after December 27, 2020, requirements established or guidance issued
between March 1, 2020 and the last day of the Covered Period), by the Secretary of Health and Human Services, the Director
of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, or the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, related to the
maintenance of standards of sanitation, social distancing, or any other work or customer safety requirement related to
COVID-19.

The Borrower’s eligibility for loan forgiveness will be evaluated in accordance with the PPP regulations and guidance issued by SBA
through the date of this application. SBA may direct a lender to disapprove the Borrower’s loan forgiveness application if SBA
determines that the Borrower was ineligible for the PPP loan.
