34 504 Benefits to the Bank First lien position with low loan-to-value reduces your collateral risk. You build a stronger banking relationship by providing your customer the benefits of a 504 loan, while maintaining your relationship. The Bank s loan at 50% of project costs allows those with inhouse lending limits to preserve available funds for the firm s future working capital/growth needs. 34

35 Third Party Lender Pays a Fee a.third Party Lender Fee. SBA must collect a one-time Third Party Lender Participation fee equal to 50 basis points on the Third Party Lender s participation in a project when the Third Party Lender is in a senior credit position to SBA on the project. SBA may accept payment of this fee from the Third Party Lender, the 504 borrower, or the CDC. This payment may be made to SBA by (1) the Third Party Lender sending to the CDC a certified check or guaranteed funds check made payable to the CSA, and CDC forwarding it to the CSA with the 504 Loan Closing documentation, or (2) the CDC may collect the fee and the CSA will deduct the amount of the fee from the amount sent to the CDC after Debenture sale. 35

36 504 Benefits to the Borrower A 504 loan can provide your borrower up to 90% financing for fixed-assets construction and acquisition at below market rates. Your borrower can access below-market, long-term, fixedrate funds which enhances cash flow of the firm. Twenty-year term avoids balloon payments, renegotiation of the loan, and possibly higher payments. The lower down payment conserves valuable working capital of the small business for future growth. 36

37 Borrower Pays On Going Fees 1. Borrower s Fees ( Borrower s Fees ) Borrower must pay: a. An ongoing guarantee fee equal to 0.00 of one percent per annum of the principal balance of the Note calculated at five-year intervals beginning with the first payment.
