The Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act (the “Flex Actâ€), which became law on June 5, replaces the 8-week period (referred to in the law as the “Covered Periodâ€) for spending Paycheck Protection Program loan funds with a 24-week Covered Period. However, the Flex Act allows borrowers who obtained loans prior to June 5, 2020 to elect to have an 8-week Covered Period apply, as was provided in the original law enacting the Paycheck Protection Program … the CARES Act.
