the standard form prescribed by the Office of Government Ethics 
consistent with subpart F of this part and in accordance with 
instructions issued by that Office, a full and complete statement of the 
information required to be reported according to the provisions of 
subpart C of this part, except for Sec. 2634.303 (relating to 
purchases, sales, and exchanges of certain property) and Sec. 2634.304 
(relating to gifts and reimbursements). The following special rules 
apply:
    (1) Interests in property. For purposes of Sec. 2634.301 of this 
subpart, the report shall include all interests in property specified by 
that section which are held on or after a date which is fewer than 
thirty-one days before the date on which the report is filed.
    (2) Income. For puposes of Sec. 2634.302 of this subpart, the 
report shall include all income items specified by that section which 
are received or accrued during the period beginning on January 1 of the 
preceding calendar year and ending on the date on which the report is 
filed, except as otherwise provided by Sec. 2634.606 relating to 
updated disclosure for nominees.
    (3) Liabilities. For purposes of Sec. 2634.305 of this subpart, the 
report shall include all liabilities specified by that section which are 
owed during the period beginning on January 1 of the preceding calendar 
year and ending fewer than thirty-one days before the date on which the 
report is filed.
    (4) Agreements and arrangements. For purposes of Sec. 2634.306 of 
this subpart, the report shall include only those agreements and 
arrangements which still exist at the time of filing.
    (5) Outside positions. For purposes of Sec. 2634.307 of this 
subpart, the report shall include all such positions held during the 
preceding two calendar years and the current calendar year up to the 
date of filing.
    (6) Certain sources of compensation. Except in the case of the 
President, the Vice President, or a candidate referred to in Sec. 
2634.201(d), the report shall also identify the filer's sources of 
compensation which exceed $5,000 during either of the preceding two 
calendar years or during the current calendar year up to the date of 
filing, and shall briefly describe the nature of the duties performed or 
services rendered by the reporting individual for each such source of 
compensation. Information need not be reported, however, which is 
considered confidential as a result of a privileged relationship, 
established by law, between the reporting individual and any person. The 
report also need not contain any information with respect to any person 
for whom services were provided by any firm or association of which the 
reporting individual was a member, partner, or employee, unless such 
individual was directly involved in the provision of such services.

    Example: A nominee who is a partner or employee of a law firm and 
who has worked on a matter involving a client from which the firm 
received over $5,000 in fees during a calendar year must report the name 
of the client only if the value of the services rendered by the nominee 
exceeded $5,000. The name of the client would not normally be considered 
confidential.

    (c) Termination reports. Each public financial disclosure report 
filed under Sec. 2634.201(e) shall include, on the standard form 
prescribed by the Office of Government Ethics consistent with subpart F 
of this part and in accordance with instructions issued by that Office, 
a full and complete statement of the information required to be reported 
according to the provisions of subpart C of this part, for the period 
beginning on the last date covered by the most recent public financial 
disclosure report filed by the reporting individual under this part, or 
on January 1 of the preceding calendar year, whichever is later, and 
ending on the date on which the filer's employment terminates.
