* "Non-amortizing" indicates that the loan does not have a fixed annual debt service. For these items, you must fill in 20-year debt service below. ** Total Sources must equal total replacement cost in Project Development Cost (PDC) section. Estimated pricing on sale of Federal Tax Credits: $0. 85 Remarks concerning project funding sources: (Please be sure to include the name of the funding source(s)) The project has no annual debt service. However, according to the projections (see "Projected Cash Flow" page), the project shows negative net cash flow starting in year 10. As illustrated in the "Development Cost" page we have included a $350,000 special operating reserve / sinking fund in our budget to cover projected operating shortfalls for the first 20 years. The assumptions behind this sinking fund are based on conversations with an equity provider and DHICs experience with Lennox Chase Apartments.
Loans with Variable Amortization Please fill in the annual debt service as applicable for the first 20 years of the project life.

Comments: We request an exception to the development cost limitation because we are building on a challenging infill site that will require significant cut and fill and retaining walls. In addition the 130% basis boost would allow us to get 324,985 in federal tax credits. However, we are limited by the QAP to 8,500 in federal tax credits per unit and are thus requesting only 272,000. $105,000 of the $491,000 listed in on-site improvements are budgeted off-site improvements associated with relocating a Durham City Park.
