(b) The Authority shall, upon receipt of a Collateral Support Program Request from the Participating Financial Institution, provide an Initial Approval if the Executive Director determines that the Qualified Loan meets the requirements of the Collateral Support Program.
(1) The Authority shall review each Collateral Support Program Request for completeness, for consistency with the terms and conditions for a Qualified Business and a Qualified Loan, and to determine whether the Authority shall offer and underwrite the Collateral Support.
(2) The Executive Director shall notify the Participating Financial Institution of the Executive Director's determination within 15 business days after receipt by the Authority of all documentation required to make such determination. The Executive Director's determination shall be final.
(3) At the time of Initial Approval, the Executive Director shall also be authorized to require reasonable conditions, contingencies, or additional parameters necessary to support a prudent underwriting of the Collateral Support by the Authority, including but not limited to additional requirements to ensure the eligibility of the Borrower and the loan, the availability of cash flow, the value of the available collateral, and the liquidation plan in the event of a default.
(4) The Initial Approval will include confirmation of the following:
(A) The total anticipated amount of the Qualified Loan.
(B) The term of enrollment of the Qualified Loan.
(C) The total amount of the Collateral Support, including Severely Affected Community or Socially and Economically Disadvantaged Individual incentives if applicable.
(D) The applicable Closing Fee.
(E) Any conditions, contingencies, or additional parameters deemed reasonable by the Executive Director.
(5) Upon the Initial Approval of the Collateral Support Program Request, the Authority will issue notice of such approval with instructions for the Participating Financial Institution to open a Loss Reserve Account pursuant to Section 8078.32 and deposit the Borrower's Closing Fee prior to the disbursement of the loan.
(6) The Initial Approval of the Collateral Support Program Request is valid for ninety (90) days.
(c) Within fifteen (15) business days of the closing of a Qualified Loan that has received with Initial Approval, the Participating Financial Institution shall complete and submit to the Authority the following for Final Enrollment:

(5) All certifications and representations required by the Participating Financial Institution and Borrower.
(6) Proof of Closing Fee deposit and Loss Reserve Account opening.
(7) The date of the disbursement of loan proceeds to the Borrower. The date of the disbursement must be after the date of the Initial Approval, and prior to the Final Enrollment.
(d) Collateral Support shall be determined based on the amount of loan and term of loan enrollment as follows:
(1) Small Business Loans are eligible to receive up to 40% of the loan value.
(2) All loans are eligible for a five (5) year term of support.
(3) All loans are eligible for an additional Severely Affected Community (SAC) Contribution if the Qualifying Business is located in a Severely Affected Community, or if the Qualified Business is considered to be Socially and Economically Disadvantaged in an amount of 10% of the loan value, not to exceed 25% of the Collateral Support.
(e) Closing Fees shall be calculated based on the amount of Collateral Support (exclusive of the additional Severely Affected Community (SAC) Contribution) or Socially and Economically Disadvantaged (SEDI) Contribution) determined by the term of Collateral Support as follows:
(1) For all loans there shall be a minimum Closing Fee of 0.50% of the Collateral Support, or $1000, whichever is greater.
(2) All loans will be subject to Closing Fees based on the Term of Support as follows:
(A) If Term of Support is less than or equal to 12 months, the fee will be 0.5% of the Collateral Support.
(B) If Term of Support is greater than 12 months, but does not exceed 24 months, the fee will be 0.75% of the Collateral Support, unless the loan is for a Bridge Loan, in which case the fee will be 0.50% of the Collateral Support.
(C) If Term of Support is greater than 24 months, but does not exceed 36 months, the fee will be 2.00% of the Collateral Support.
(D) If Term of Support is greater than 36 months, but does not exceed 48 months, the fee will be 2.75% of the Collateral Support.
(E) If the Term of Support is greater than 48 months, but does not exceed 60 months, the fee will be 3.00% of the Collateral Support.
(3) For lines of credit, the fee will be calculated based on the Collateral Support amount as provided in subdivision (e)(2). Prior to the expiration of the original Term of Enrollment, the Participating Financial Institution may request an extension, contingent upon current underwriting and subject to a 1.0% fee per year for each annual renewal up to a maximum of 60 months.
(4) For Bridge Loans, prior to the expiration of the original Term of Enrollment, the Participating Financial Institution may request an extension in writing. There is no fee associated with an approved extension as long as the total Term of Support as extended does not exceed 24 months. If the effect of any extension or series of extensions would increase the total Term of Support for the Bridge Loan into a tier associated with a higher Closing Fee, then any difference between the fees paid at closing and the newly calculated fees associated with the amended Term of Support would be charged to the Participating Financial Institution upon approval of the extension.
