**NOTE:** All questions that address requirements contain the citation
for the source of the requirement (statute, regulation, NOFA, approved
application, contract or grant agreement). If the requirement is not
met, HUD must make a finding of noncompliance. All other questions
(questions that do not contain the citation for the requirement) do not
address requirements, but are included to assist the reviewer in
understanding the participant\'s program more fully and/or to identify
issues that, if not properly addressed, could result in deficient
performance. Negative conclusions to these questions may result in a
\"concern\" being raised, but not a \"**finding**.\"

**[Instructions]{.underline}:** This Exhibit is designed to evaluate the
RHED program participant's progress in implementing the activities
necessary for successful grant implementation.
