Statements Required by Law and Executive Order

This application and any assistance provided pursuant to this application is subject to the following laws, regulations, and Executive Orders:

Paperwork Reduction Act - You are not required to respond to this collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB Control Number. The estimated time for completing this application, including gathering data needed, is 31 minutes. Comments about this time or the information requested should be sent to: Small Business Administration, Director, Records Management Division, 409 3rd St., SW, Washington DC 20416, and/or SBA Desk Officer, Office of Management and Budget, New Executive Office Building, Washington DC 20503. PLEASE DO NOT SEND FORMS TO THESE ADDRESSES.

Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006, as amended (31 U.S.C. 6101 Note) - SBA routinely publishes information related to this loan application (e.g., name and address of borrower, amount of loan) on USAspending.gov, as required by the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006, as amended.

Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a); Collection of Social Security Number (31 U.S.C. 7701 et seq.) - Authorities and Purpose for Collecting Information: SBA is collecting the information on this form, including social security numbers and other personal information, to make a character and credit eligibility decision in connection with you or your company’s application for SBA assistance. SBA may also use social security numbers for the purpose of collecting and reporting on any delinquent fees or other amounts owed SBA.

Under the provisions of 31 U.S.C. § 7701, the applicant business and any guarantor of the loan are required to provide their social security numbers, or other taxpayer identification numbers, in order to do business with SBA. Failure to provide this information would affect your ability to obtain a 504 loan. For other individuals signing this application, the submission of the social security number is voluntary and failure to provide your social security number may not affect any right, benefit or privilege to which you are entitled. However, in evaluating whether the applicant satisfies the criteria for a 504 loan under section 501 et seq. of the Small Business Investment Act, 15 U.S.C. § 695 et seq., SBA considers whether the applicant and each of its Associates possess good character. In making this determination, SBA considers the person’s integrity, candor, and criminal history if any. SBA is authorized, through section 308(f) of the Small Business Investment Act, to verify your criminal history, or lack thereof, pursuant to section 7(a)(1)(B) of the Small Business Act, 15 U.S.C. §636(a)(1)(B). In addition, for all forms of assistance, SBA is authorized to make all investigations necessary to ensure that a person has not engaged in acts that violate or will violate the Small Business Investment Act, see 15 U.S.C. §687b(a). In conducting the criminal background check, SBA also uses your social security number to distinguish you from other individuals with the same or similar name or other personal identifier. This use is permitted under Executive Order 9397.

Routine Uses: Some of the information collected may be checked against criminal history indices of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. When the information collected indicates a violation or potential violation of law, whether civil, criminal, or administrative in nature, SBA may refer it to the appropriate agency, whether Federal, State, local, or foreign, charged with responsibility for or otherwise involved in investigation, prosecution, enforcement or prevention of such violations. See SBA’s Privacy Act System of Records, at 74 Fed. Reg. 14890 (2009) (as amended from time to time) for other published routine uses for the collected information.

Right to Financial Privacy Act of 1978 (12 U.S.C. § 3401 et seq.) - As required by the Right of Financial Privacy Act of 1978, SBA provides this notice of SBA's right to access financial records held by financial institutions that are or have been doing business with you or your business, including any financial institutions participating in a loan or loan guarantee. The law provides that SBA shall have a right of access to your financial records in connection with its consideration or administration of assistance to you in the form of a Government loan or loan guaranty agreement. SBA is required to provide a certificate of its compliance with the Act to a financial institution in connection with its first request for access to your financial records, after which no further certification is required for subsequent accesses. The law also provides that SBA's access rights continue for the term of any approved loan or loan guaranty agreement. No further notice to you of SBA's access rights is required during the term of any such agreement.

The law also authorizes SBA to transfer to another Government authority any financial records included in an application for a loan, or concerning an approved loan or loan guarantee, as necessary to process, service or foreclose on a loan or loan guarantee or to collect on a defaulted loan or loan guarantee. No other transfer of your financial records to another Government authority will be permitted by SBA except as required or permitted by law.

Disclosure of Information - Requests for information about another party may be denied unless SBA has the written permission of the individual to release the information to the requestor or unless the information is subject to disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act. The Privacy Act authorizes SBA to make certain “routine uses” of information protected by that Act. One such routine use is the disclosure of information maintained in SBA’s system of records when this information indicates a violation or potential violation of law, whether civil, criminal, or administrative in nature. Specifically, SBA may refer the information to the appropriate agency, whether Federal, State, local or foreign, charged with responsibility for, or otherwise involved in investigation, prosecution, enforcement or prevention of such violations. Another routine use is disclosure to other Federal agencies conducting background checks but only to the extent the information is relevant to the requesting agencies’ function. See, 74 F.R. 14890 (2009), and as amended from time to time for additional background and other routine uses.

Debt Collection Act of 1982 and Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996 (5 U.S.C. § 5514 note and 31 U.S.C. § 3701 et seq.) - These laws require SBA to aggressively collect any loan or other payments which become delinquent. SBA must obtain your taxpayer identification number when you apply for a loan. If you receive a loan, and do not make payments as they come due, SBA may take one or more of the following actions:

• Report the status of your loan(s) or other debt owed to SBA to credit bureaus

• Hire a collection agency to collect your loan or other delinquent debt

• Offset your income tax refund or other amounts due to you from the Federal Government

• Suspend or debar you or your company from doing business with the Federal Government

• Refer your loan or other delinquent debt to the Department of Justice or other attorneys for litigation

• Foreclose on collateral or take other action permitted in the loan instruments

• If you default on an SBA loan and fail to fully reimburse SBA for any resulting loss, refer you to the computer database of delinquent Federal debtors maintained by the Department of Housing and Urban Development, or other Federal agency, which may disqualify you from receiving financial assistance from other Federal agencies. In addition, unless SBA is reimbursed in full for the loss, you will not eligible for additional SBA financial assistance.

Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) - This law provides, with some exceptions, that SBA must supply information reflected in agency files and records to a person requesting it. Information about approved loans that will be automatically released includes, among other things, statistics on our loan programs (individual borrowers are not identified in the statistics) and other information such as the names of the borrowers (and their officers, directors, stockholders or partners), the collateral pledged to secure the loan, the amount of the loan, its purpose in general terms and the maturity. Proprietary data on a borrower would not routinely be made available to third parties. All requests under this Act are to be addressed to the nearest SBA office and be identified as a Freedom of Information request.

Flood Disaster Protection Act (42 U.S.C. 4011) - Under this Act, and its implementing regulations, SBA is prohibited from providing financial assistance in a designated floodplain unless Federal flood insurance is purchased as a condition of the loan. Failure to maintain the required level of flood insurance makes the Applicant ineligible for any future financial assistance from SBA under any program, including disaster assistance.

Executive Orders 11988 and 11990 -- Floodplain Management and Wetland Protection (42 F.R. 26951 and 42 F.R. 26961) - SBA discourages settlement in or development of a floodplain or a wetland. This statement is to notify all applicants for SBA assistance that such actions are hazardous to both life and property and should be avoided. The additional cost of flood preventive construction must be considered in addition to the possible loss of all assets and investments due to a future flood.

Executive Order 11738 -- Environmental Protection (38 F.R. 25161) - The Executive Order charges the SBA with administering its loan programs in a manner that will result in effective enforcement of the Clean Air Act, the Federal Water Pollution Act and other environmental protection legislation. SBA must, therefore, impose conditions on some loans. By acknowledging receipt of this form and presenting the application, the Associates of all small businesses borrowing $100,000 or more in direct funds stipulate to the following:

• That any facility used, or to be used, by the subject firm is not cited on the EPA list of Violating Facilities.

• That subject firm will comply with all the requirements of Section 114 of the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7414) and Section 308 of the Water Act (33 U.S.C. § 1318) relating to inspection, monitoring, entry, reports and information, as well as all other requirements specified in Section 114 and Section 308 of the respective Acts, and all regulations and guidelines issued thereunder.

• That subject firm will notify SBA of the receipt of any communication from the Director of the Environmental Protection Agency indicating that a facility utilized, or to be utilized, by subject firm is under consideration to be listed on the EPA List of Violating Facilities.

Occupational Safety and Health Act (15 U.S.C. 651 et seq.) - The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) can require businesses to modify facilities and procedures to protect employees. Businesses that do not comply may be fined and required to abate the hazards in their workplaces. They may also be ordered to cease operations posing an imminent danger of death or serious injury until employees can be protected. Signing this form is certification that the applicant, to the best of its knowledge, is in compliance with the applicable OSHA requirements, and will remain in compliance during the life of the loan.

Lead-Based Paint Poisoning Prevention Act (42 U.S.C. § 4821 et seq.) - Borrowers using SBA funds for the construction or rehabilitation of a residential structure are prohibited from using lead-based paint (as defined in Federal regulations) on all interior surfaces, whether accessible or not, and exterior surfaces, such as stairs, decks, porches, railings, windows and doors, which are readily accessible to children under 7 years of age. A "residential structure" is any home, apartment, hotel, motel, orphanage, boarding school, dormitory, day care center, extended care facility, college or other school housing, hospital, group practice or community facility and all other residential or institutional structures where persons reside.

Civil Rights (13 C.F.R. 112, 113, 117) - All businesses receiving SBA financial assistance must agree not to discriminate in any business practice, including employment practices and services to the public, on the basis of categories cited in 13 C.F.R., Parts 112, 113, and 117 of SBA Regulations. This includes making their goods and services available to handicapped clients or customers. All business borrowers will be required to display the "Equal Employment Opportunity Poster" prescribed by SBA.

Equal Credit Opportunity Act (15 U.S.C. 1691 et sec.) - The Federal Equal Credit Opportunity Act prohibits creditors from discriminating against credit Applicants on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, marital status or age (provided that the Applicant has the capacity to enter into a binding contract); because all or part of the Applicant's income derives from any public assistance program, or because the Applicant has in good faith exercised any right under the Consumer Credit Protection Act.
