    This part sets forth minimum standards of professional conduct for 
attorneys appearing and practicing before the Commission in the 
representation of an issuer. These standards supplement applicable 
standards of any jurisdiction where an attorney is admitted or practices 
and are not intended to limit the ability of any jurisdiction to impose 
additional obligations on an attorney not inconsistent with the 
application of this part. Where the standards of a state or other United 
States jurisdiction where an attorney is admitted or practices conflict 
with this part, this part shall govern.
