<h1><span style="font-size:11pt">SBA and Treasury Announce PPP Re-Opening; Issue New Guidance
</span><u></u><u></u></h1>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-family:"Source Sans Pro",sans-serif">WASHINGTON</span></b><span style="font-family:"Source Sans Pro",sans-serif"> – The
<a href="http://www.sba.gov/" target="_blank">U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA)</a>, in consultation with the Treasury Department, announced today that the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) will re-open the week of January 11 for new borrowers and certain existing PPP
borrowers. To promote access to capital, initially only community financial institutions will be able to make First Draw PPP Loans on Monday, January 11, and Second Draw PPP Loans on Wednesday, January 13. The PPP will open to all participating lenders shortly
thereafter. Updated PPP guidance outlining Program changes to enhance its effectiveness and accessibility was released on January 6 in accordance with the Economic Aid to Hard-Hit Small Businesses, Non-Profits, and Venues Act.
</span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Source Sans Pro",sans-serif">This round of the PPP continues to prioritize millions of Americans employed by small businesses by authorizing up to $284
billion toward job retention and certain other expenses through March 31, 2021, and by allowing certain existing PPP borrowers to apply for a Second Draw PPP Loan.
</span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Source Sans Pro",sans-serif">“The historically successful Paycheck Protection Program served as an economic lifeline to millions of small businesses and
their employees when they needed it most,” said Administrator Jovita Carranza. “Today’s guidance builds on the success of the program and adapts to the changing needs of small business owners by providing targeted relief and a simpler forgiveness process
to ensure their path to recovery.” </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Source Sans Pro",sans-serif">“The Paycheck Protection Program has successfully provided 5.2 million loans worth $525 billion to America’s small businesses,
supporting more than 51 million jobs,” said Treasury Secretary Steven T. Mnuchin. “This updated guidance enhances the PPP’s targeted relief to small businesses most impacted by COVID-19. We are committed to implementing this round of PPP quickly to continue
supporting American small businesses and their workers.”</span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Source Sans Pro",sans-serif">Key PPP updates include:</span><u></u><u></u></p>
<ul type="disc">
