Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

Key Programs for Healthcare Providers
The CARES Act was signed into law on March 27, 2020, setting the stage for the implementation ofa number of critical
programs and policy changes for healthcare providers. While these programs haverelieved some of the economic and
regulatory burdens on providersthis year, they have also created a number of complex considerationsas we approach
the end of the year and look forward to 2021.

personnel; fringe benefits; lease payments;
utilities and operations; and other G&A
• Healthcare-relatedexpenses, including:

Period:CY2019 andCY2020
• Total patient care revenue, netof uncollectible
patient servicerevenue (bad debt)

CY2019 and CY2020
Per the Terms & Conditions, PRF payments can be used for healthcare-related expenses and lost revenue attributable to coronavirus.
While HHS has evolved the definition of these categories, which we will discuss in greater depth later in the presentation, HHS has stated
in its most recent Notice that expense and lost revenue reporting will consist of the following elements:

Recent Developments
• Recent Developments
• On October 26, 2020, the SBA published a notice related to information filing forms, form 3509 and 3510, documenting the necessity certification issued under FAQ #31. The
forms require various forms of financial information to be disclosed for those whose PPP loans (including affiliates) totaled $2,000,000 or more. The purpose is intended to
facilitate the collection of supplemental information (including certifications and disclosure of quarterly revenues, distributions, compensation levels to owners and employees,
and more), that will be used by SBA loan reviewers to evaluate the good-faith certification that was made on the PPP borrower application that economic uncertainty made the
loan request necessary. The form will be issued by the lender servicing the loan and the completed form is due within ten business days of receipt from the lender. On December
9, 2020 the SBA posted final versions of Forms 3509 and 3510 along with FAQ #53 regarding questions and answers on why some borrowers are receiving a loan necessity
questionnaire.
• Does this recent filing requirementapply tohealthcare providers?
Any for profit and not-for-profit provider that obtained a PPP loan of $2M must complete form 3509 or 3510.
• But does the additional disclosure requiredby form3509 or 3510, apply toa provider that, together withits affiliates received PPP loans withan original
principal amount of $2M or greater are requiredtocomplete form3509or 3510?
The instructions for form 3509 and 3510, reference 85 FR 20817 issued on April 15, 2020 regarding the application of SBA’s affiliation rules. The rules pertain (1)to affiliation based upon 50 percent or more
equity ownership. A PPP loan applicant is an affiliate of an individual or entity the owns or has the power to control more than 50 percent of the business’s voting equity. (2) affiliation based on the power to
control based upon options, convertible securities and agreements to merge. (3) affiliation based on management, whereby CEO, President or other officers, managing members, partners who control
management of the concern controls the management of the applicant concern and another concern (4) affiliation based upon identity of interest between close relatives as defined in 13 CFR 120.10 with
identical or substantially identical business or economic interests ( close relatives operate concerns in the same of similar industry or geographical area.
16. 16
Walking Through the 3508
• Final forgiveness amount is lower of:
• Modified total (adding up all qualified costs and
adjusting for FTE and wage reductions)
• PPP Loan Amount
• Payroll / 60%
• Note that any reductions are calculated on the total
qualified costs. For example, if a company had a
PPP loan amount of $750k, and spent $1.5Mwith a
30% FTE reduction resulting in a modified total of
($1.050m),you’d still have full forgiveness because
the modified total would be more than the PPP loan
amount.
18. 18
Payroll Costs - Schedule A
• Payroll costs includeall forms of cash compensation paid to employees, including tips, commissions,
bonuses, and hazard pay. Notethat forgivablecash compensation per employee is limited to $46,154
for non-owners during thecovered period.
• Other payroll costs
• Employer expenses for group health care benefits that are paid or incurred by the borrower during the Covered
Period or the Alternative Payroll Covered Period are included in Payroll costs. Amounts contributed by employees
are not included. Forgiveness is not provided for expenses for group health benefits accelerated from periods
outside of the covered period.
• Employer contributions for employee retirement benefits that are paid or incurred by the borrower during the
Covered Period or Alternative Payroll Covered Period qualify as “payroll costs” eligible forloan forgiveness.
Amounts contributed by employees are not included. Forgiveness is not provided for expenses for retirement
benefits accelerated from periods outside of the covered period.
• Employer payments for state and local taxes assessed on employee compensation (e.g., state unemployment
insurance tax)
• Owner compensation for owner-employees, self-employed individuals or generalpartners is the lesser
of $20,833(2.5/12 x100,000) or 2.5/12x2019 compensation
• Benefits for owner-employees depends on business tax structure
• S corporations:employerhealthinsurance isnotallowedforownersandfamilymembersof 2%shareholders.
• LLC members/Partners:employerhealthinsurance,retirementcontributionsandstate &local taxesare not
allowed.
19. 19
Payroll Costs - Schedule A
• Timing of Payroll Cost
• Payrollcosts incurred butnot paid during the last pay period of the selected period
are eligible for forgiveness if paid on or beforethe next regular payrolldate.
• Reductions to PPP Loan Forgiveness
• If your averageamountof full-time equivalent employees is less than the reference
periods (i.) 2/15/19 - 6/30/19; (ii.) 1/1/20 - 2/29/20; thepercentage decreasewould
result in an “FTE Reduction Quotient”
• For example, if you had 100 FTEs in the measurement period, and 70 FTEs during your
covered period, you’d have a 70% FTE Reduction Quotient.
• If an employee’s salary or hourly rate was reduced by morethan 25% when compared
to the measurementperiod (Q1 2020), a reduction to forgiveness is applied by
calculating the differencein rate between the covered period and the measurement
period X .75, and applying that differenceto the hours worked during the covered
period
• For example, if someone was earning $20/hr during the measurement period and $14/hr
during the covered period. the wage reduction is based on $1/hr ($20 X .75) – $14). If the
employee worked 500 hours during the covered period, the wage reduction is $500, which is
simply subtracted from your total qualified costs.
20. 20
Non-Payroll Cost
• Mortgage interest
• Interest on business mortgages on real or personal property are eligible for loan forgiveness
• Rent
• Payments of rent obligated under a leasing agreement in force before February 15, 2020
• If the lease is renewed after 2/15/2020, it’s still qualified
• Rent to related parties is limited to the amount of the mortgage interest owed on the property during
the covered period. There is no guidance addressing whether owner attribution rules apply.
• Utilities
• Electricity, gas, water, transportation, telephone or internet access for service which began prior to
February 15, 2020
• Timing of non-payroll costs
• Eligible business mortgage interest costs, eligible business rent or lease costs, and eligible business utility
costs incurred prior to the Covered Period and paid during the Covered Period are eligible for loan
forgiveness.
• For amounts paid by the next scheduled payment date after the end of the covered period, the borrower
must prorate the total amount for only the days that fall in the covered period. The rule states
specifically that advance payments of mortgage interest and all payments of principal are not eligible for
forgiveness.
21. 21
Safe Harbors
• Certain safe harbors are provided for businesses that are unable to
maintain their FTEs and rates of pay during the covered period.
Forgiveness will not be reduced under the following circumstances.
• The most relevant safe harbor reads as follows, “If you were unable to
operate between February 15,2020,and the end of the Covered Period at
the same level of business activity as before February 15, 2020due to
compliance with requirements established or guidance issued between
March1, 2020and December 31, 2020,by the Secretary of Health and
Human Services, the Director of the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention, or the OccupationalSafety and Health Administrationrelated
to the maintenance of standardsfor sanitation,social distancing,or any
other worker or customer safety requirement related to COVID-19,”you
will not need to apply an FTE Reduction Quotient to your qualified costs.
22. 22
Safe Harbors
• Additionally,there are exceptions to the FTE reduction if the borrower
• Makes a good-faith,written offer to rehire or restore the reduced hours ofan employee during
the covered period or the alternative payrollcovered period,the offer was rejected and the
borrower has documentationofthe offer and rejection,and notified the State’s Unemployment
Division
• Employee was fired for cause
• Employee voluntarilyresigned
• Employee requested and received a reduction oftheir hours
• Borrower in good faith can document the inabilityto rehire individualswho were employees on
February15, 2020 and hire similarlyqualified employees forunfilledpositions on or before
December 31, 2020 or the date of the application forforgiveness
• Borrower reduced FTE employee levels between Feb. 15 and Apr.26, 2020; and then restored its FTE
employee levels by not later than Dec. 31, 2020 or the date of the forgiveness application to FTE
levels in the payperiod that included Feb.15.
• There is also a safe harborforthe Salary/HourlyWage Reduction.If the employees’rate of payis
brought up to the rate duringthe payperiod that includes 2/15/2020 as of the earlier of 12/31/2020
and the date the application is submitted,the safe harboris met and no reduction is applied to the
forgiveness amount.

Forecasting and Cash flow
Forecasting is not about having a crystal ball and accuratelypredicting the future. There are too many
variablesthat can change the outcome. Forecastingis a tool that allows one to track financial
performanceback to the key drivers that need to be managed.
In order to develop a forecast, one needs to understandthe correlationor relationshipbetween key
driverssuch as, volume, revenue, and expenses. By examiningthese relationshipsover prior years one
can applythat that experience as the basis to forecast financialperformance.
Forecasting cash flow is important to a) help identify issuesbefore they occur and b) to avoid a
potential cash crisis. In order to achieve this a basic cash flow forecast can be developedwhich should
include, change in net working capital,anticipatedcapitalexpenditures,and financing activities.

In addition to these programs, providersalso
need to consider the impact of the following:
• Reinstatementof the Medicare Sequester
• Elimination of COVID-19 vaccine cost-
sharing for Medicare PartB
• Potentialend of the FMAP increase
• Potentialend of 20% DRG add-on

• Current ratio – current assets to current liabilities (accounting for PPP loan and PRF and AAP
refundable advances)
• Debt service – does covenant include grant and contribution income (PPP and PRF) in
calculation?
• Quarterly and semi-annual calculations during 2020
• Impact on distributions – paid in 2020 and to be paid
o Especiallythe different reporting and impact for federal and state income taxes (pass through and C
corporations)
Financial Reporting Considerations

Segregate COVID related costs / expenditures between PPP and PRF
• “Double dipping”
• Reduce by funding received from other sources
o Private Foundation
o State and government grants/ contracts/ awards
• Timelines:

Other Program Tax Treatment Summary
Program Tax Treatment
Provider Relief Fund
Taxable in the year it was received; HHS has clarified that the taxes on the PRF payments are
an eligible healthcare-related expense and, as such, can be covered with the PRF payments
For Profit providers: The payment from the Provider Relief Fund is includable in gross income
under section 61 of the Code.
Tax-exempt providers: A healthcare provider described in section 501(c) of the code generally
is exempt from federal income taxation under section 501(a) and therefore receipt of may be
subject to tax under section 511 if the payment reimburses the provider for expenses or lost
revenue attributable to an unrelated trade or business as defined in section 513.
Medicare Advance Payments Not includable in taxable income; loan that must be repaid

• Valuations may be impacted if MAPs havebeen utilized during 2020, as cash flow would be reduced as
recoupmentbegins
• Buyer typically wants to know that all of the MAP funds arestill available or that the havebeen paid back to
CMS prior to the execution of the deal
Key Issue: Potential need to return
funds in 2021
• The rules regarding useof PRFs havebeen complex and ever-evolving, making it difficult to determine
precisely how much of the PRFs received in 2020 can be utilized by the selling organization in 2020 and 2021
• Buyer typically wants to be kept whole in case the selling organization has to return any PRFs to HHS
Key Issue: Extent of the
forgiveness and timing thereof
• For transactions anticipated during the firsthalf of 2021, it is likely that the forgiveness application will not
havebeen approved by the SBA prior to the closing of the deal
• Pursuantto the SBA ProceduralNotice issued on October 2, 2020, a changeof ownership transaction will
generally be deemed to trigger a repaymentof the PPP loan amount (without forgiveness) unless an Escrow
accountis set up with the bank that issued the PPP loan for the amount of the outstanding PPP loan
• Two primary options for sellers: (1) Escrow accountset-up with corresponding reduction in purchaseprice
proceeds to the seller at closing or (2) deal is postponed until after the PPP loan is forgiven

Key Differences between
Asset Sales and Stock Sales
Stock Sale Asset Sale
PPP Loans Generally, there is equanimity in treatment between asset sales and stock sales
Medicare Advance
Payments
Recoupment against future Medicare payments
will continue to take place against the
reimbursement due to the Seller company
Recoupment will only occur if the Medicare
Provider Agreement is assigned to the Buyer
entity. Seller company will be required to
repay/return Medicare Advance Payments
Provider Relief Funds
Buyer can continue to use the PRFs for eligible
expenses and lost revenues of the Seller company.
As a result, the PRFs can transition over with the
stock of the Seller company. Note: Targeted
Distributions must remain under the control of the
TIN to which they were distributed.
Buyer can NOT use the Seller’s PRFs. Only the
Seller’s legal entity can use the funds for its
eligible expenses and lost revenues. As a
result, the PRFs cannot transition over with
the assets of the Seller company.

Impact on Business Terms in the
Purchase Agreements
Definition of “debt” or “indebtedness”
PPP and Medicare Advance Payments received and NOT repaid by
closing are falling under the definition of “debt” or “indebtedness,”
which impacts purchase price
Definition of “excluded liabilities”
In asset sales, the recoupment amounts or repayment amounts for
PRFs and Medicare Advance Payments are falling under the definition
of “excluded liabilities,” which stay with the Seller
Indemnification
• The definition of “losses” that fall under the indemnification may
include any liability for recoupment by or repayment to any
Government Authority of PRFs, PPP, or Medicare Advance
Payments.
• The indemnification may also cover losses arising from any
governmental audits related to PRFs, PPP, or Medicare Advance
Payments
