denied only upon a determination by the DAEO that the outside activity 
is expected to involve conduct prohibited by statute or Federal 
regulations, including 5 CFR part 2635.
    (c) Definitions. For purposes of this section, ``employment'' means 
any form of non-Federal employment or business relationship or activity

compensation other than reimbursement of actual and necessary expenses. 
It includes, but is not limited to, personal services as an officer, 
director, employee, agent, attorney, consultant, contractor, general 
partner, or trustee.
