    Under certain sufficient conditions for strict local optimality in a mathematical program, it is well known that a number of nondifferentiable penalty functions are locally exact. With sufficient conditions involving the contingent derivative, it is shown that this local exactness is valid for programs whose objective and constraint functions need not be differentiable or even continuous.
