FVCbank would strongly encourage all Clients to take advantage of the SBA Disaster Assistance Program.

SBA Disaster Relief Program:

  1. Application Process: Client applies directly with SBA via link below for Loan to cover working capital needs. Projected time-frame from date of application to loan closing is up to 45 days.
  2. Loan Amount: Up to $2,000,000
  3. Rates: Either Fixed @ 3.75% or Fixed @ 2.75% for qualifying not-for-profits.
  4. Term: Up to 30 years.
  5. Payments: Payments can be deferred for the first 12 months.
  6. Collateral: SBA is willing to take an inferior lien position behind BA’s and RE. A shortage of collateral will not prevent approval.
  7. Fees: No SBA Fee required. Standard fees apply e.g., UCC lien filing fees, flood certs, etc.
  8. Use of Proceeds: Client can use proceeds as they see fit including making payments on FVCBank debt. Funds cannot be used to pay existing Government Debt e.g., SBA 7a loan payments.
  9. Link to Submit Application: https://www.sba.gov/funding-programs/disaster-assistance
  10. Additional Notes: SBA recommends that clients submit a loan request equal to 1/3 of the prior year’s Gross Profits (= 4 months of gross profits). If client exhausts all loan proceeds, Client is able to request an additional loan at that time. Currently, the Mid-Atlantic and a few other regions have access to this program. Given the latter, the SBA recommends Client’s submit applications prior to the program being offered Nation-wide which will put further strain on their resources.
