      <DIV style="MARGIN-TOP: -10px">
      <P>In the last few years, we have all seen a radical reshaping of the 
      demographics and backgrounds of North Carolina's small business community. 
      </P>
      <P>Increasingly, we run into borrowers who are not yet U.S. citizens, or 
      in fact are not planning to become citizens. Yet they legally reside here, 
      and have every right to begin a small business. Many of them will also 
      make excellent customers for your institution. </P>
      <P>If you're looking at financing a business that is all or partially 
      owned by individuals who are not citizens, there are several special 
      underwriting issues you should consider: 
      <OL>
        <LI>Get us involved early in the game. If we have owners and/or 
        guarantors who are not citizens, we need to verify early on whether 
        there's a way for us to work with them. Also, we need to get copies of 
        the documentation that governs their residency, and verify it with the 
        U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS, formerly known as the 
        INS). These background checks can take two to four weeks, so we need to 
        get started early in the game. If we process these forms early in the 
        underwriting process, then we can move forward with SBA approval faster. 
        <BR>
        <LI>Individuals with "Lawful Permanent Residency Cards" (i.e. "green 
        cards") easily may qualify for SBA lending. Borrowers with temporary 
        work permits have a harder time qualifying. However, if a person with 
        such temporary status is a co-owner with a citizen or permanent 
        resident, he/she would qualify for an SBA loan. <BR>
        <LI>In some cases, even foreign-owned businesses can qualify for SBA 
        loans. There are special processing considerations - for instance, the 
        company would need to be an existing business, and would need to have 
        seasoned management consisting of U.S. citizens who have long-term 
        commitment to the company - but it is feasible for us to consider 504 
        financing for these companies. <BR>
        <LI>The SBA specifically prohibits making loans to businesses owned by 
        individuals lacking legal residency status. Again, our early involvement 
        can help you determine if there may be barriers to working with a 
        business you're considering. </LI></OL>
      <P></P>
      <P>As the profile of small businesses in your community continues to 
      diversify, let us help you pinpoint opportunities to provide financial 
      assistance to some small businesses that might seemingly might not fit 
      your lending parameters. Give us a call, and we'll walk you through the 
      process. </P></DIV></FONT></DIV>
