loans by lenders in SBA’s Preferred 

Lenders-Export Working Capital 

Program (PLP–EWCP), consultation 

with lenders to solicit feedback on 

future program enhancements, and

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Export Express Pilot Program was 

established in 1998 to assist current and 

prospective small exporters, particularly 

those needing revolving lines of credit. 

Export Express is an SBA Pilot Program 

under the agency’s 7(a) lending program 

that extends streamlined program 

requirements to small business 

exporters and lenders. The maximum 

loan amount under this Program is 

currently limited to $250,000. The pilot 

was scheduled to end on September 30, 

2008. 

This notice announces the extension 

of SBA’s Export Express Pilot Program 

until December 31, 2009. 

Exports attributed to small businesses 

have grown from $300 billion in 2002 to 

$477 billion in 2007. During this time 

period, the number of small business 

exporters grew from 215,000 to 237,000, 

representing 97% of all U.S. exporters. 

In order for the Export Express loan 

product to reach maximum potential 

and serve the special capital needs of 

U.S. small business exporters, SBA is 

refocusing its efforts on Export Express 

and developing a strategic marketing 

plan to the U.S. small business 

community and to the Agency’s lending 

partners, including its Preferred Lenders 

for both the domestic 7(a) loan programs 

as well as the Export Working Capital 

Loan Program (PLP–EWCP). 

The further extension of this pilot 

program through December 31, 2009 

will enable the Agency to analyze the 

program’s existing performance and to 

obtain input from international lenders 

regarding the current structure of the 

Export Express Program, so that any 

future changes to the program are based 

on lender input and performance 

analysis.
