Second Draw - Paycheck Protection Program 2.0 (PPP 2.0)
We are happy to provide you with the information we currently have on the second round of the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP 2.0). Please understand, we are still learning more details about this program as more information is provided by the SBA.
The Paycheck Protection Program provides small businesses with funds to pay up to 8 weeks of payroll costs including benefits. Funds can also be used to pay interest on mortgages, rent, utilities and certain other eligible costs.
Loan payments will be deferred for six months. No collateral or personal guarantees are required. Neither the government nor German American State Bank will charge a small businesses enrolled in this program any fees.
Borrowers will be expected to spend at least 60% of the funds on payroll over a covered period of 8 to 24 weeks to receive full forgiveness. The other 40% can be used on certain other eligible costs. More information is available in the links below.
Forgiveness is based on the employer maintaining or quickly rehiring employees and maintaining salary levels. Forgiveness will be reduced if full-time headcount declines, or if salaries and wages decrease.
Who is Eligible for PPP 2.0?
- Sole proprietors, independent contractors, self-employed persons (including farmers), non-profit, religious organizations and others.
- Businesses with 300 or less employees.
- Businesses who show a 25% reduction in gross receipt (revenue) in the first, second or third quarter in 2020 compared to the same quarter in 2019.
- Businesses that were granted funds for PPP 1.0 will have to have used all of those funds for qualified purposes prior to disbursement of PPP 2.0 funds.
