Any loan made under this Act shall:
(a) Be made only if a participating lender, or other funding source including the applicant, also provides a portion of the financing with respect to the project, and only if the Department determines, on the basis of all the information available to it, that the project would not be undertaken in Illinois unless the loan is provided. Such other risk assumption may be in the form of a loan, letter of credit, guarantee, loan participation, bond purchase, direct cash payment or other form approved by the Department.
(b) Finance no more than 25% of the total amount of any single project and be approved for amounts from the Fund not to exceed $2,000,000 for any single project, unless waived by the Director upon a finding that such waiver is appropriate to accomplish the purposes of this Act.
(c) Be protected by adequate security satisfactory to the Department to secure payment of the loan agreement.
(d) Be in such principal amount and form and contain such terms and provisions with respect to property insurance, repairs, alterations, payment of taxes and assessments, delinquency charges, default remedies, additional security and other matters as the Department shall determine adequate to protect the public interest.
(e) Include provisions to call the loan agreement as due and payable if the project is not completed, if the project fails to generate anticipated employment opportunities or if the business ceases to operate the project.
(f) Be made only after the Department has determined that the loan will cause a project to be undertaken which has the potential to create substantial employment in relation to the principal amount of the loan.
(g) Be made with a business that has certified the project is a new plant start-up or expansion and is not a relocation of an existing business from another site in Illinois unless that relocation results in substantial employment growth.
