DRAFT – SUBJECT TO REVIEW AND REVISION<br />

action to get the funding into the hands of small businesses over a reasonable time period.<br />

Director Miller asked if it’s possible that instead of it being a lack of demand issue, it is<br />

actually a marketing issue.<br />

Mr. Cohen stated that that may be a part of the issue and he expects that the other<br />

lenders which have been asked to prioritize those regions will be able to move the money. In<br />

any event, he added, it is a matter that ESD will track going forward.<br />

There being no further questions or comment, and upon motion duly made and<br />

seconded, the following resolution was unanimously adopted:<br />

reallocate and redeploy Program funding and to enter into loan agreements and related<br />

documentation with each borrower and in such amounts as set forth in the Materials, in order<br />

to redeploy such reallocated Program funding in an aggregate not to exceed $25 million that is<br />

RESOLVED, that the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation or his designee(s)<br />
