Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The rate varies. Generally, I believe it is two points above the bank rate. It is adjusted on a quarterly basis. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. May I have an indication as to the range of size of loans that are commonly approved by the Business Credit Corporation? Is there a minimum/maximum range of loan?

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. We do put out an annual report. Generally, the Community Futures groups can lend up to $75,000, as a rule of thumb. Our trained investment managers can lend up to $250,000. The Business Credit Corporation board itself can lend up to $500,000. The maximum is $2 million, which was just recently adjusted. Thank you.
