§ 10092.10. Claims.
(a) An FPE may submit a claim for an Enrolled Financing Agreement when all of the following conditions are met:
(1) The claim is submitted within 10 years from the Enrollment Date;
(2) The Eligible Commercial Financing Customer has defaulted on the Enrolled Financing Agreement and the FPE has charged off some or all of the outstanding Claim-Eligible Financed Amount;
(3) The FPE has taken reasonable steps in accordance with industry standards to seek recoveries through the liquidation of collateral and any personal guarantees, if applicable; and
(4) The FPE is in compliance with Program regulations, including, but not limited to, the reporting requirements in Section 10092.12.
(b) In the event of a charge-off, the FPE may submit a claim for up to 90% of the Claim-Eligible Charge-Off Amount.
(c) Claims will be paid net of any recovery and proceeds that the Finance Provider Entity has obtained prior to the filing of the claim such that the Finance Provider Entity will recoup no more than 100% of the Claim-Eligible Charge-Off Amount. Unless as described in Section 10092.10(d), a payment for a particular claim is limited to the funds in the Finance Provider Entity's Loss Reserve Account(s) at the time that the claim is approved by the Authority.
(d) If there are not sufficient funds in the FPE's Loss Reserve Account to cover 90% of the Claim-Eligible Charge-Off Amount at the time of a claim, the Loss Reserve Account Representative may ask that future contributions to the Loss Reserve Account (when new financings are enrolled) be paid out as part of the original claim until the end of the next annual rebalancing.
(e) Claim Applications. Claim applications must be submitted by the Loss Reserve Account Representative to the Authority within 180 calendar days of the date of charge-off of an Enrolled Financing Agreement. To make a claim, an FPE must be in compliance with the Program regulations, including, but not limited to, the reporting requirements in Section 10092.12. The claim application must include the following information provided by the Finance Provider Entity in a format to be determined by the Authority:
(1) The following data:
(A) Total Charge-Off Amount and claim amount requested;
(B) If the Enrolled Financing Agreement is secured, a statement of whether or not enforcement proceedings have commenced;
(C) Trustee account number(s) from which the claim payment will be made;
(D) The loss reserve payee; and
(E) The date of the Charge-Off.
(2) Certification that the claim was submitted as required by Section 10092.10(a) and certification that the charge-off was made in a manner consistent with the FPE's usual methods for taking action on financing agreements that are not Enrolled Financing Agreements under the Program;
(3) Certification that the FPE will comply with reporting requirements on recoveries and proceeds, as specified in Section 10092.12(g)(2); and
(4) The claim application must be signed by the Loss Reserve Account Representative and will include the signatory's printed name, title, and date.
(f) The Authority will approve claims within 30 calendar days of the Authority's receipt of a completed and qualified claim request, provided, however, that the Executive Director shall be authorized to reject a claim if they determine that any of the acknowledgements, certifications, representations, and warranties provided by the FPE pursuant to Section 10092.2(c)(4) - (7) and Section 10092.3(g) and (h) at the time of application to the Program were false, or if the Eligible Financing Agreement claimed upon does not conform to financing product(s) submitted in the application to participate in the Program pursuant to Section 10092.2(c)(3) or a subsequent update pursuant to Section 10092.12(f), or if the FPE is not in compliance with its obligations, including reporting obligations, under the regulations within this Article. The Authority, upon providing written notice to the FPE, may defer approval of claims up to an additional 30 calendar days if the Authority requires more information to determine if the claim will be paid. Prior to authorizing a disbursement from a Loss Reserve Account, the Authority may request documentation relating to the original Enrolled Financing Agreement, the servicing file, and the default.
(g) Upon the approval of a claim, the Authority will direct the Trustee to disburse the approved claim amount from the FPE's Loss Reserve Account to the Loss Reserve Account Representative within five business days.
(h) The Loss Reserve Representative may request that the Trustee disburse funds to a third party of its choosing. That request to disburse funds to a third party must be made by the Loss Reserve Account Representative to the Authority, in writing, at the time of the submission of the claim application.
(i) If, subsequent to the payment of a claim by the Authority the FPE recovers from the Eligible Small Business Financing Customer, the liquidation of collateral, personal guarantees, or any other source amounts for which the FPE applied to have recouped from the Authority, the FPE must promptly pay to the Authority or its agent for deposit in the Program Holding Account the amount received, net of reasonable and customary costs of collection, that in the aggregate exceeds the amount needed to fully cover the FPE's loss on the Claim-Eligible Charge-Off Amount.
