According to the Simon Wiesenthal Center (SWC) consolidated audit of June 30, 2021 (Note 10, Paycheck Protection Program Loan): "SWC received loans in the amount of $1,720,100 and $1,299,595 to fund payroll, rent, and utilities through the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP). The PPP Loans are eligible to be forgiven by the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) subject to certain performance barriers, as outlined in the loan agreement and the CARES [Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security] Act. "The SBA may review funding eligibility and usage of funds for compliance with program requirements based on dollar thresholds and other factors. The amount of liability, if any, from potential noncompliance cannot be determined with certainty; however, management is of the opinion that any review will not have a material adverse impact on SWC's financial position. "Subsequent to year end, $1,469,318 of the $1,720,100 PPP Loan was partially forgiven on February 21, 2022 and SWC has begun repaying the balance. The PPP Loan for $1,299,595 was fully forgiven on March 1, 2022." |

According to the Simon Wiesenthal Center consolidated audit of June 30, 2021 (Note 2 re: Risks and Uncertainties): "The World Health Organization declared the spread of Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) a worldwide pandemic in March 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic is having significant effects on global markets, supply chains, businesses, and communities. Specific to the Organization, COVID19 [sic] may impact various parts of its 2021 operations and financial results, including grants. Management believes the Organization is taking appropriate actions to mitigate the negative impact. However, the full impact of COVID-19 is unknown and cannot be reasonably estimated as these events are still developing." |
