                                         DISASTER LIQUIDATION HARDSHIP
                                         RELIEF REQUEST REQUIREMENTS

For the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) to consider a possible Major Hardship Relief request, the below
documentation must be provided. Borrowers and/or Guarantors have 15 calendar days to submit a completed
packet. Completed packets will be reviewed by the proper SBA office. Incomplete packets will result in a delay
in processing.

ATTENTION:
Submission of these requirements does not constitute an automatic approval of any major hardship relief and the SBA
retains all its rights to collect on the subject SBA loan. Any commitment made by the SBA will be provided separately
in writing.

        Note: If SBA is in the process of foreclosing on the real estate used to secure your SBA loan, you must
        contact the SBA employee in the SBA’s National Disaster Loan Resolution Center (NDLRC) named
        in your foreclosure letter to discuss this matter. As to non-bankrupt borrowers/guarantors in foreclosure,
        collection efforts currently in process will continue until SBA’s NDLRC receives the required
        documentation and approves your request for assistance in writing. There will be no refunds of any
        offset(s) by the U.S. Department of Treasury during this period.

During this period, there will be no refunds of any amounts. Collection efforts currently in place will continue
until SBA provides a response in writing. Additional documentation may be required for thorough analysis.

    1. A signed and dated detailed letter from the Obligor(s) explaining your change in circumstances that left you
       unable to pay for living expenses. This letter must include:
