The purpose of the Restaurant Revitalization Fund (RRF) is to support the restaurant industry by providing funding

therefore, applications for less than $1,000 will not be accepted. See application instructions for counting locations. 
Awardees will not be required to repay funds received under the Restaurant Revitalization Program unless the funds

Priority in Awarding Restaurant Revitalization Funds: To be eligible for priority in awarding Restaurant Revitalization Funds, Applicants 
must self-certify that they meet the definition of any of the following priority Applicants: 
• 
A small business concern owned and controlled by veterans is a business concern (a business entity organized for profit, with 
a place of business located in the United States, and which operates primarily in the United States) that is considered small in 
accordance with SBA’s size standards at 13 CFR § 121.201 and is at least 51 percent owned by one or more veterans, and the 
management and daily business operations of the Applicant are controlled by one or more veterans. A veteran is defined as a 
person who served in the active military, naval, or air service, and who was discharged or released under conditions other than 
dishonorable. 
• 
A small business concern owned and controlled by women is a business concern (a business entity organized for profit, with a 
place of business located in the United States, and which operates primarily in the United States) that is considered small in 
accordance with SBA’s size standards at 13 CFR § 121.201 and is at least 51 percent owned by one or more women, and the 
management and daily business operations of the Applicant are controlled by one or more women. 
• 
A small business concern owned and controlled by socially and economically disadvantaged individuals is a business concern 
(a business entity organized for profit, with a place of business located in the United States, and which operates primarily in the 
United States) that is considered small in accordance with SBA’s size standards at 13 CFR § 121.201 and is at least 51 percent 
owned by one or more socially and economically disadvantaged individuals, an Alaska Native Corporation, an economically 
disadvantaged Indian tribe, or an economically disadvantaged Native Hawaiian Organization, and the management and daily 
business operations of the Applicant are controlled by one or more socially and economically disadvantaged individuals, an 
Alaska Native Corporation, an economically disadvantaged Indian tribe, or an economically disadvantaged Native Hawaiian 
Organization. Socially disadvantaged individuals are those who have been subjected to racial or ethnic prejudice or cultural bias 
because of their identity as a member of a group without regard to their individual qualities. Individuals who are members of 
the following groups are presumed to be socially disadvantaged: Black Americans; Hispanic Americans; Native Americans 
(including Alaska Natives and Native Hawaiians); Asian Pacific Americans; or Subcontinent Asian Americans. Economically 
disadvantaged individuals are those socially disadvantaged individuals whose ability to compete in the free enterprise system 
has been impaired due to diminished capital and credit opportunities as compared to others in the same business area who are 
not socially disadvantaged. In assessing economic disadvantage, SBA will look at whether the net worth of the individual claiming 
disadvantage is less than $750,000, excluding his or her ownership interest in the Applicant, primary personal residence, 
contingent liabilities, funds invested in an official retirement account, or income received from an S-corporation, LLC, or 
partnership if the individual provides documentation that the income was reinvested in the firm. SBA will also look at whether 
the adjusted gross income of the individual averaged over the preceding three years exceeds $350,000. Income received from 
an S-corporation, LLC or partnership that is reinvested in the firm or used to pay taxes arising in the normal operations of the 
firm is excluded. Finally, SBA will look at whether the fair market value of all the individual’s assets (excluding his or her 
ownership interest in the Applicant, primary personal residence, or funds invested in an official retirement account) exceeds $6 
million. An individual who exceeds any of these thresholds for net worth, personal income, or total assets will generally be 
deemed to not be economically disadvantaged.  
• 
SBA will consider an applicant to meet the definition of a small business concern owned and controlled by women, veterans, or 
socially and economically disadvantaged individuals if the applicant is a small business concern that is at least 51 percent owned by 
one or more individuals who are women, veterans, or socially and economically disadvantaged and if the management and daily 
business operations of the applicant are controlled by one or more women, veterans, or socially and economically disadvantaged 
individual. For example: An applicant has five owners who each own 20 percent of the applicant. Two owners are veterans and 
one owner is a socially and economically disadvantaged individual. SBA will consider this applicant to meet the requirement that 
at least 51 percent of the applicant is owned by a priority group.  
• 
If an individual meets the requirements of more than one priority group category, that individual is only counted once. For 
example: An applicant has five owners who each own 20 percent of the applicant. One of the owners is a woman veteran who is a 
socially and economically disadvantaged individual; however, none of the remaining four owners are a woman, veteran, or 
socially and economically disadvantaged individual. This applicant is not eligible to file an application as a priority group applicant.

and economically disadvantaged individuals. 
Paperwork Reduction Act – You are not required to respond to this collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB 
Control Number. The estimated time for completing this application, including gathering data needed, is 45 minutes. Comments about 
this time or the information requested should be sent to: Small Business Administration, Director, Records Management Division,

Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a) – Under the provisions of the Privacy Act, you are not required to provide your social security number. Failure 
to provide your social security number may not affect any right, benefit, or privilege to which you are entitled. (But see Debt Collection 
Notice regarding taxpayer identification number below.) Disclosures of name and other personal identifiers are required to provide SBA 
with sufficient information to make a character determination. When evaluating character, SBA considers the person’s integrity, candor, 
and disposition toward criminal actions. Additionally, SBA is specifically authorized to verify your criminal history, or lack thereof, pursuant 
to section 7(a)(1)(B), 15 U.S.C. Section 636(a)(1)(B) of the Small Business Act. 
Disclosure of Information – Requests for information about another party may be denied unless SBA has the written permission of the 
individual to release the information to the requestor or unless the information is subject to disclosure under the Freedom of Information 
Act. The Privacy Act authorizes SBA to make certain “routine uses” of information protected by that Act. One such routine use is the 
disclosure of information maintained in SBA’s system of records when this information indicates a violation or potential violation of law, 
whether civil, criminal, or administrative in nature. Specifically, SBA may refer the information to the appropriate agency, whether Federal, 
State, local or foreign, charged with responsibility for, or otherwise involved in investigation, prosecution, enforcement, or prevention of 
such violations. Another routine use is disclosure to other Federal agencies conducting background checks but only to the extent the 
information is relevant to the requesting agencies’ function. See, 74 F.R. 14890 (2009), and as amended from time to time for additional 
background and other routine uses. In addition, the CARES Act, requires SBA to register every loan made under the Paycheck Protection 
Program using the Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) assigned to the borrower. 
Debt Collection Act of 1982, Deficit Reduction Act of 1984 (31 U.S.C. 3701 et seq. and other titles) – SBA must obtain your taxpayer 
identification number when you apply for a loan. If you receive a loan, and do not make payments as they come due, SBA may: (1) report 
the status of your loan(s) to credit bureaus, (2) hire a collection agency to collect your loan, (3) offset your income tax refund or other 
amounts due to you from the Federal Government, (4) suspend or debar you or your company from doing business with the Federal 
Government, (5) refer your loan to the Department of Justice, or (6) take other action permitted in the loan instruments. 
Right to Financial Privacy Act of 1978 (12 U.S.C. 3401) – The Right to Financial Privacy Act of 1978, grants SBA access rights to financial 
records held by financial institutions that are or have been doing business with you or your business including any financial institutions 
participating in a loan or loan guaranty. SBA is only required provide a certificate of its compliance with the Act to a financial institution in 
connection with its first request for access to your financial records. SBA’s access rights continue for the term of any approved loan 
guaranty agreement. SBA is also authorized to transfer to another Government authority any financial records concerning an approved 
loan or loan guarantee, as necessary to process, service or foreclose on a loan guaranty or collect on a defaulted loan guaranty. 
Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) – This law provides, with some exceptions, that SBA must supply information reflected in 
agency files and records to a person requesting it. Information about approved loans that is generally released includes, among other 
things, statistics on our loan programs (individual borrowers are not identified in the statistics) and other information such as the names 
of the borrowers, the amount of the loan, and the type of the loan. Proprietary data on a borrower would not routinely be made available 
to third parties. All requests under this Act are to be addressed to the nearest SBA office and be identified as a Freedom of Information 
request. 
Occupational Safety and Health Act (15 U.S.C. 651 et seq.) – The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) can require 
businesses to modify facilities and procedures to protect employees. Businesses that do not comply may be fined and required to abate 
the hazards in their workplaces. They may also be ordered to cease operations posing an imminent danger of death or serious injury until 
employees can be protected. Signing this form is certification that the applicant, to the best of its knowledge, is in compliance with the 
applicable OSHA requirements, and will remain in compliance during the life of the loan. 
Civil Rights (13 C.F.R. 112, 113, 117) – All businesses receiving SBA financial assistance must agree not to discriminate in any business 
practice, including employment practices and services to the public on the basis of categories cited in 13 C.F.R., Parts 112, 113, and 117 of 
SBA Regulations. All borrowers must display the "Equal Employment Opportunity Poster" prescribed by SBA. 
Equal Credit Opportunity Act (15 U.S.C. 1691) – Creditors are prohibited from discriminating against credit applicants on the basis of race, 
color, religion, national origin, sex, marital status or age (provided the applicant has the capacity to enter into a binding contract); because 
all or part of the applicant’s income derives from any public assistance program; or because the applicant has in good faith exercised any 
right under the Consumer Credit Protection Act.
