Servicing and Liquidation Actions Matrix

Servicing and Liquidation Actions Matrix

The Servicing and Liquidation Actions Matrix was published on SBA’s website recently. SBA has designed this matrix to be a quick reference guide for Certified Development Companies (CDCs) to determine whether specific servicing and liquidation actions can be taken under their unilateral authority - especially with regards to SBA 504 loans.

  • This new and improved version of the matrix was updated to reflect guidance in SOP 50 55, 504 Loan Servicing and Liquidation, that went into effect October 1, 2013.
  • The format of the matrix has been revised to be more user friendly and is consistent with the order of SOP 50 55.
  • This version contains more actions than the previous version.
  • Unilateral authority is based on CDC type and not Loan Type. This aligns with the Regulations governing the 504 Program that provide unilateral authority to PCLP CDCs, regardless of the loan’s delivery method.
  • ALP CDCs now have essentially the same unilateral authority as Non-PCLP CDCs. The matrix will be revised to reflect these changes.
  • SBA has developed the matrix to be utilized as a tool and is not meant to be a substitute for Program requirements. Therefore, CDCs must follow SBA Loan Program Requirements in the SOPs when taking any action, including unilateral actions.
  • CDCs must provide notification to SBA when taking any unilateral actions.
  • CDCs must document the business reason and justification for decisions and retain these and supporting documents in the loan file.
  • When taking action within a CDCs unilateral authority, SBA strongly encourages the CDC to document the loan file as such, "This action was taken under unilateral authority.”

$212,000 SBA 7(a) LOAN – PERSONAL GUARANTY LIABILITY | NEGOTIATED 24% SETTLEMENT

$212,000 SBA 7(a) LOAN – PERSONAL GUARANTY LIABILITY | NEGOTIATED 24% SETTLEMENT

Our firm successfully resolved an SBA 7(a) loan default in the amount of $212,000 on behalf of an individual guarantor. The borrower’s business experienced a significant downturn in revenue and was unable to sustain operations, ultimately leading to closure and a remaining personal guaranty obligation.

After conducting a thorough financial review and preparing a comprehensive SBA Offer in Compromise (SBA OIC) submission, we negotiated directly with the SBA and lender to achieve a settlement of $50,000—approximately 24% of the outstanding balance. This favorable resolution released the guarantor from further personal liability and provided the opportunity to move forward free from the burden of enforced collection.

$166,000 SBA 7A LOAN - NEGOTIATED WORKOUT AGREEMENT

$166,000 SBA 7A LOAN - NEGOTIATED WORKOUT AGREEMENT

Clients executed personal and corporate guarantees for an SBA 7(a) loan from a Preferred Lender Provider (PLP). The borrower corporation defaulted on the loan exposing all collateral pledged by the Clients. The SBA subsequently acquired the loan balance from the PLP, including the right to collect against all guarantors. The SBA sent the Official Pre-Referral Notice to the guarantors giving them sixty (60) days to either pay the outstanding balance in full, negotiate a Repayment (Offer in Compromise (OIC) or Structured Workout (SW)), challenge their alleged guarantor liability or file a Request for Hearing (Appeals Petition) with the SBA Office of Hearings & Appeals.

Because the Clients were not financially eligible for an OIC, they opted for Structured Workout negotiations directly with the SBA before the debt was transferred to the Bureau of Fiscal Service, a division of the U.S. Department of Treasury for enforced collection.

The Firm was hired to negotiate a global Workout Agreement directly with the SBA to resolve the personal and corporate guarantees. After submitting the Structured Workout proposal, the assigned SBA Loan Specialist approved the requested terms in under ten (10) days without any lengthy back and forth negotiations.

The favorable terms of the Workout included an extended maturity at an affordable principal amount, along with a significantly reduced interest rate saving the Clients approximately $181,000 in administrative fees, penalties and interest (contract interest rate and Current Value of Funds Rate (CVFR)) as authorized by 31 U.S.C. § 3717(e) had the SBA loan been transferred to BFS.
