Dear Mr. Warnke,
Thank you for your response. The firm in question is Trans-Pacific Aerospace Company, Inc. They apparently have qualified for the EXIM China Foreign Loan Program, with an application valued at $85 Mil. My understanding is that with a "Foreign Loan Program", it may "circumvent" the necessity of the "Quorum" due to it essentially being "Co-Endorsed" by the Chinese Government....??
I believe this may be a more specifically defined aspect to my original inquiry. Is there any basis in the EXIM Foreign Loan Program which will effectively by-pass the need for a Congressional Quorum to fund beyond the $10 Mil Cap..??
I very much appreciate your time.
Sincerely,
Mark Gotham

to me
Mr. Gotham,
To be clear, EXIM cannot directly comment on any specific loan application for business confidentiality reasons.
As stated previously, if a medium- or long-term loan application seeks more than $10 million in financing directly from EXIM, the Bank’s bylaws require that it be approved by its Board of Directors. As you know, the Bank’s Board of Directors currently lacks a quorum needed to conduct business. Until Congress confirms a third Member to the Bank’s Board or alters the quorum requirement, the Board of Directors cannot take action on applications for EXIM financing in excess of $10 million. Participation in a program along the lines you have described would still require Board approval if the financing sought directly from EXIM exceeds $10 million.
I hope this helps.
Best,
Kevin
