BF could negatively impact our results of operations. It is also anticipated that the Company will guarantee NSBF’s obligations to the SBA. NewtekOne’s dedicated Senior Lending Team that is now supporting Newtek Bank, as well as NSBF’s management team and employees who are now part of the Newtek Bank, will originate and service SBA 7(a) loans to qualifying SMBs and will follow the NewtekOne SBA 7(a) loan business model.

We anticipate Newtek Bank obtaining PLP status. The SBA grants PLP status to certain lenders originating SBA 7(a) loans based on achievement of certain standards in lending which are regularly monitored by the SBA. As a Preferred Lender, Newtek Bank will be authorized to place SBA guarantees on SBA 7(a) loans without seeking prior SBA review and approval. Designated PLP lenders are delegated the authority to process, close, service, and liquidate most SBA guaranteed loans without prior SBA review. PLP lenders are authorized to make SBA guaranteed loans, subject only to a brief eligibility review and assignment of a loan number by SBA. In addition, they are expected to handle servicing and liquidation of all of their SBA loans with limited involvement of SBA. However, there can be no guarantee that Newtek Bank will be able to maintain its SBA 7(a) lending license, nor that Newtek Bank will obtain PLP status under the SBA 7(a) program following the Acquisition. If Newtek Bank is delayed in obtaining, or fails to obtain, PLP status, it would have a material adverse impact on Newtek Bank’s ability to originate SBA 7(a) loans at NSBF’s historic levels, and it may negatively impact Newtek Bank’s SBA 7(a) loan origination volumes and revenues to be generated from the sale of guaranteed portions of SBA 7(a) loans. See “Risk Factors – There can be no guarantee that Newtek Bank will be able to maintain its SBA 7(a) lending license” on Page 18 of this prospectus.

Pursuant to the SBA’s regulations, the SBA is released from liability on its guaranty of an SBA 7(a) loan and may, in its sole discretion, refuse to honor a guaranty purchase request in full or in part, or recover all or part of the funds already paid in connection with a guaranty purchase, if the lender failed to comply
