Each master credit agreement shall— establish the maximum amount and general terms and conditions of each applicable direct loan or loan guarantee; identify 1 or more dedicated non-Federal revenue sources that will secure the repayment of each applicable direct loan or loan guarantee; provide for the obligation of funds for the direct loans or loan guarantees after all requirements have been met for the projects subject to the master credit agreement; and unless otherwise extended by the Secretary, require that each applicable direct loan and loan guarantee results in a financial close and obligation of assistance, or release of the master credit agreement, not later than 3 years after the date of entry by the Secretary into the agreement. The proceeds of a direct loan under this title may be used for any non-Federal share of project costs required under chapter 244 of title 49, United States Code, if the loan is repayable from non-Federal funds. .
