Certifications

The Authorized Representative of the Borrower certifies to all of the below by initialing after each one.

          The Borrower has complied with all requirements in the Paycheck Protection Program Rules (Sections 7(a)(36), 7(a)(37), and 7A of the Small Business Act, the PPP interim final rules, and guidance issued by SBA through the date of this application), including the rules related to:

  • eligible uses of PPP loan proceeds;
  • the amount of PPP loan proceeds that must be used for payroll costs;
  • the calculation and documentation of the Borrower’s revenue reduction (if applicable); and
  • the calculation of the Borrower’s Requested Loan Forgiveness Amount.

          Information regarding these requirements can be found in the Form 3508S Instructions (Click Here) and the Paycheck Protection Program Rules.

           The information provided in this application is true and correct in all material respects. I understand that knowingly making a false statement to obtain forgiveness of an SBA-guaranteed loan is punishable under the law, including 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 3571 by imprisonment of not more than five years and/or a fine of up to $250,000; under 15 U.S.C. 645 by imprisonment of not more than two years and/or a fine of not more than $5,000; and, if submitted to a Federally insured institution, under 18 U.S.C. 1014 by imprisonment of not more than thirty years and/or a fine of not more than $1,000,000.

           I understand that the Borrower’s eligibility for loan forgiveness will be evaluated in accordance with the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) regulations and guidance issued by SBA through the date of this application. SBA may direct a lender to disapprove the Borrower’s loan forgiveness application if SBA determines that the Borrower was ineligible for the PPP loan.

           I understand that First Hawaiian Bank’s (the “Bank”) decision on the Borrower’s forgiveness application is subject to review by the SBA. The SBA has the right to change the Bank’s decision, which could include reducing the amount of forgiveness that the Borrower receives.

           I understand that if the PPP loan is not forgiven in full, the Borrower will need to begin making payments of principal and interest under the PPP loan after the SBA remits the loan forgiveness amount to the Bank (or notifies the Bank that no loan forgiveness is allowed). The Bank will notify the Borrower when the first payment is due. If the Borrower did not apply for forgiveness before the end of the deferment period, then the Borrower must begin making payments of principal and interest under the PPP loan at the end of the deferment period. The deferment period ends 24 weeks and 10 months after the date when the PPP loan was funded.
