<img style="margin: 0px 5px 5px -10px;" src="ppp-food.gif" height="129" hspace="5" align="left" border="0" vspace="5" width="164" alt="boutique-law-1500">A food and candy manufacturer in an economically distressed part of the Northeast changed ownership in March 2020. As part of the purchase agreement, the new ownership had to continue to employ ALL the employees from the old company. Days later, the impact of Covid-19 hit the region. This company is the largest employer in a very small town, with 120 jobs. The Company is the town, and the town is the Company! While keeping these people employed is at the essence of what the CARES Act and PPP Loans are all about, the specific requirements for qualifying for a PPP Loan (an ongoing business as of February 15th) left this company "falling through a crack". The new owner and his team were rejected in their initial attempts to apply for a PPP Loan. The Company learned how Asset Enhancement Solutions LLC ("AES") was providing VIP treatment to PPP loan seekers and the COO of the Company called AES for assistance. </p>
<p class="tombstones">
<font color="#058063"><b>Financing Solution:</b></font><br>
The COO spoke at length with an AES senior consultant who is a senior level banking professional and knows how to quickly assess a business situation. Our senior consultant advised the COO exactly what to include in a detailed email that should be sent to the PPP Team at AES to review. AES received the email from the COO at 6:31 p.m. on Tuesday May 5th and immediately sprang into action. AES had been assisting companies large and small nationwide with complex PPP issues, but this was a situation where our team had the opportunity to make a big impact. The best way to describe how we assisted this Company is by the following timeline:</p>
<p class="tombstones"><strong>May 5, 2020</strong></p>

<p class="tombstones"><strong>May 7, 2020</strong></p>
<p class="tombstones">9:00 a.m. - AES PPP continues to liaise with lender and Company, troubleshooting all issues that arise</p>
<p class="tombstones"><strong>May 8, 2020</strong></p>

<p class="tombstones">"It takes a Village"! AES is extremely proud to have coordinated the efforts of the different people and organizations that helped the Company secure its $1,100,000 PPP loan. It was the teamwork and passion of so many people that made this happen!</p>
