Small Business Loan Guaranty Program Overview Created as part of the Small Business Jobs Act of 2010, the State Small Business Credit Initiative (SSBCI) was designed to help increase credit availability for small businesses. Through the SSBCI, the State of Mississippi was allocated $13.1M, which is administered by the Mississippi Development Authority (MDA) under the Small Business Loan Guaranty Program (SBLGP). The program is designed to facilitate capital accessibility for small business by providing loan guaranties to banks and other small business lenders. The program s purpose is to enable lenders to make term loans or provide lines of credit to new or existing small businesses in a difficult credit environment, which will help with the development, expansion and retention of Mississippi s small businesses. Who Is Eligible to Apply? Eligible Borrowers may include: Mississippi new or existing small business with up to 250 employees and less than $7,000,000 in gross revenues or $1,000,000 in profit after taxes. Mississippi nonprofit organizations, when the financing is for a business purpose. All Financial Institutions must be preapproved by MDA before participating in the program. Eligible participating Financial Institutions may include: Commercial Bank Savings Bank Federal Land Bank Farm Credit Bank, Agricultural Credit Association or other farm credit agency Mississippi Planning and Development Districts Community Development Corporations Community Development Financial Institutions Eligible loans/projects may include: Construction Remodeling or renovation Leasehold improvements Purchase of land, buildings, machinery and equipment New business start-up costs Working capital 2

Lender Participation Program Enrollment An eligible Financial Institution must be approved for participation by MDA by submitting an Application for Participation. The application document and list of required attachments will be reviewed by MDA and considered for approval for participation in the program. Lender Agreement An MDA-approved Financial Institution will be required to enter into the Small Business Loan Guaranty Program Agreement. This agreement establishes the terms and conditions of the program and obligates the lender to the meeting program requirements. Borrower Application Eligible Borrowers The borrower must be a new or existing Mississippi small business (or business locating in Mississippi). The borrower may be a Mississippi nonprofit entity, if the loan is for an eligible business purpose. The borrower must have less than 250 employees. If the borrower is an existing business, it must have earned less than either $7,000,000 in gross revenues or less than $1,000,000 in profit after taxes in the most recent completed fiscal year. All applicants must be credit worthy and demonstrate the ability to repay the loan, must be in compliance with all state and federal regulatory agencies, and must not be in default on any previous debt or obligation with the state or federal government. Eligible Loan Types/Purposes The loan proceeds must be used for a business purpose. A business purpose includes, but is not limited to, startup costs, working capital, equipment, inventory, as well as the purchase, construction renovation or tenant improvements of an eligible place of business that is not for passive real estate investment purposes. 3

Ineligible Borrowers The borrower may not be an executive officer, director, or principal shareholder of the partnering Financial Institution or a member of the immediate family of an executive officer, director, or principal shareholder of the partnering Financial Institution. Immediate family is defined as spouse, parent, child or sibling of the applicant. The borrower may not be a business where any principal of the company has been convicted of a sex offense against a minor. The borrower may not be a business that is engaged in the following activities: Earns more than half its annual net revenue from lending activities Speculative activities that develop profits from fluctuations in price rather than the normal course of trade. Pyramid sales, where a participant s primary incentive is based on the sales made by an ever-increasing number of participants Gambling enterprises Activities that are prohibited by federal law or applicable law in the jurisdiction where the business is located or conducted Ineligible Loan Purposes and Uses Under the program, loans made for the following uses or purposes are not eligible to apply: Refinance existing debt Used in conjunction with other federal loans or guaranties Finance the acquisition, construction, improvement or operation of real property, which is to be held primarily for sale or investment, such as commercial real estate ownership Finance any business engaged in lending, directly or indirectly Finance a nonbusiness purpose Repay delinquent federal or state income taxes Reimburse funds owed to any owner, including any equity injection 4

Guaranty Percentage The percentage of the loan guaranty will be determined by the type of loan, and the risk profile of the loan. Working capital, lines of credit and accounts receivable loans will be eligible for a loan guaranty of fifty percent (50%). Loans to finance fixed assets, such as equipment and real estate, will be eligible for a loan guaranty of up to eighty percent (80%), based on the risk associated with the loan. To determine the percentage of guaranty approved for each loan, the guaranty application will be reviewed by MDA s Small Business Loan Guaranty Review Committee. The committee will consider credit history, experience and history of the borrower, collateral coverage, and job creation in its evaluation and will set the guaranty percentage based on these factors. Loan & Guaranty Amount The amount of the loan guaranty will not exceed eighty percent (80%) of the loan amount or $500,000, whichever is less. The minimum amount for an SBLGP eligible loan will not be less than $50,000. Guaranty Terms Working capital, lines of credit and accounts receivable loans will have a maximum guaranty term of five (5) years. Loans to finance fixed assets, such as equipment and real estate, will be eligible for a guaranty term of up to fifteen (15) years. The term will not exceed the useful life the assets securing the loan or being financed, with a maximum term of fifteen (15) years. The term of the SBLGP guaranty shall match the term of the Financial Institution s loan, up to the maximum of fifteen (15) years (amortization may exceed the loan term). Interest Rate No specific interest rate is required under the program. Interest shall be charged on the SBLGP guaranteed loan and payment terms are negotiated between the lender and the borrower. 5

Guaranty Application Process A borrower must first identify a partnering Financial Institution willing to participate in the SBLGP and its parameters. MDA staff may provide a list of participating lenders. The Financial Institution will originate the guaranty application for an eligible business and loan and all required documentation, including a loan narrative describing the project, an overview of the business, the purpose of the loan and the proposed use of the loan proceeds. With each guaranty application, the Financial Institution must provide MDA with a Servicing Agreement Letter, certifying to act as the collection and service agent for the guaranteed loan and agreeing to program terms and conditions. All transactions will be presented for consideration to MDA s Small Business Loan Guaranty Review Committee. The committee will review each application and determine the guaranty percentage for the loan, based on credit history, experience and history of the borrower, collateral coverage, and job creation. Once the review committee has approved a guaranty application and percentage, the guaranty commitment is valid for ninety (90) days. If the loan has not closed within ninety (90) days, updated information may be required and the loan will be resubmitted to the review committee for approval before the loan can proceed to closing. The Financial Institution may be asked to provide, in writing, all required information for the preparation of any SBLGP loan closing documents. Loan Administration Loan Closing All closing documents must be properly executed and a copy provided to MDA upon loan closing. All exhibits to the closing documents must be filed and copies sent to MDA no later than thirty (30) days from the date of the closing. Lender Fee The Financial Institution may charge the business a servicing fee, which may not exceed one percent (1%) of the SBLGP loan guaranty amount. The fee will be a one-time charge collected at the loan closing. The fee may be paid directly by the business, deducted from the SBLGP loan proceeds, or financed as part of the Financial Institution s loan. 6

Loan Servicing The Financial Institution will be responsible for underwriting and servicing the SBLGP loan. The Financial Institution will enforce the terms and conditions of all closing documents executed for the SBLGP Loan. Reporting The Financial Institution will report quarterly to MDA on the status of the loan. The Financial Institution will submit a loan transaction history report summarizing the current balance, payments on principal to date, payments on interest to date, and any past due statements. The Financial Institution will also complete and submit an annual report in the format to be provided by MDA. Additionally, the lender will be required to report immediately any material change in the status of the borrower or collateral. Prepayment & Loan Default The Financial Institution shall notify MDA in writing of any prepayments of the Financial Institution s loan. The Financial Institution s Loan and Note is prohibited from being sold, assigned, conveyed, sub-participated, subdivided, encumbered or otherwise transferred. MDA will consider any loan that has become delinquent, in amount equal to the required payment to be in default. In the event of a loan default, the Financial Institution will submit a claim form on the guaranty once all required collection procedures have been performed. Guaranty payments will be calculated after all collateral has been applied to the outstanding balance. The SBLGP guaranty will reimburse the financial institution for its loss, up to the percentage of the SBLGP guaranty. 7

Audit Guaranties made under the SBLGP are subject to audit by the State Department of Audit Waiver These Guidelines may be amended by MDA at any time. MDA, in its discretion, may temporarily waive any requirement of the guidelines to the extent that the result of such waiver is to promote the public purpose of the Act and is not prohibited by State Law.

EXHIBIT 2 MISSISSIPPI DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY SMALL BUSINESS LOAN GUARANTY PROGRAM AGREEMENT The Mississippi Development Authority (MDA) under the authority of Section 57-10-601, Mississippi Code of 1972 as amended, has established the Mississippi Small Business Loan Guaranty Program (SBLGP) and has adopted Rules and Regulations as necessary to operate such program.

In order to participate in this program, the Financial Institution acknowledges that it is familiar with the requirements of the program and agrees to abide by all conditions set by MDA and to conform its procedures to the rules and regulations adopted by MDA for this program. The Financial Institution further declares that in making and servicing loans enrolled in the SBLGP that it will at all times exercise prudent lending practices. As the Financial Institution has agreed to be bound by the conditions and rules and regulations as adopted, or as may be adopted in the future by MDA, MDA agrees to fairly consider each application submitted requesting that a loan be enrolled in the SBLGP and, upon approval, to commit the necessary funds, as available, to the reserve account established by the Financial Institution for that purpose. The Financial Institution agrees to use prudent lending practices in making and servicing loans enrolled in the SBLGP and to exhaust all reasonable means of collecting all principal and interest from the borrower. No obligation arises for any payment under the Guaranty until all attempts by the legal means available to Lender at collection from Borrower have been exhausted and have failed. This is intended to include, but not necessarily be limited to, seizure and sale of collateral, if any, obtaining a judgment against Borrower and pursuit of a claim in bankruptcy court. In return, MDA agrees that it will fairly and within a reasonable time period respond to a request from the Financial Institution that the 11

reserve account for an enrolled loan be used to reimburse the Financial Institution. The Financial Institution shall not assign any loan enrolled in the SBLGP without written approval from MDA. The Financial Institution is entitled to a service fee not to exceed one percent (1%) of the SBLGP loan guarantee amount, to be collected at closing. The Financial Institution shall file with MDA, quarterly report as well as by January 15 of each year, a status report for the previous calendar year. (Forms will be provided by MDA.)
