| 9 | | "Applicable percentage" means 0% for each of the first 2 | 10 | | credit allowance dates, 7% for the third credit allowance | 11 | | date, and 8% for the next 4 credit allowance dates. | 12 | | "Credit allowance date" means with respect to any | 13 | | qualified equity investment:
| 14 | | (1) the date on which the investment is initially | 15 | | made; and | 16 | | (2) each of the 6 anniversary dates of that date | 17 | | thereafter. | 18 | | "Department" means the Department of Commerce and Economic | 19 | | Opportunity. | 20 | | "Long-term debt security" means any debt instrument issued | 21 | | by a qualified community development entity, at par value or a | 22 | | premium, with an original maturity date of at least 7 years | 23 | | from the date of its issuance, with no acceleration of |

|
| 1 | | repayment, amortization, or prepayment features prior to its | 2 | | original maturity date. Cumulative cash payments of interest | 3 | | on the qualified debt instrument during the period commencing | 4 | | with the issuance of the qualified debt instrument and ending | 5 | | with the seventh anniversary of its issuance shall not exceed | 6 | | the sum of such cash interest payments and the cumulative net | 7 | | income of the issuing community development entity for the | 8 | | same period.
