whether charitable nonprofits qualify under that definition for industry stabilization loans. Mid-sized businesses, including nonprofits, with between 500 and 10,000 employees are expressly eligible for loans under this provision.</i> Although there is no
loan forgiveness provision in this section, the mid-size business loans would be charged an interest rate of no higher than two percent and would not accrue interest or require repayments for the first six months. Nonprofits accepting the mid-size business
