 DEFENDANT:                      KIERIN CRAIG JOHNSON
 CASE NUMBER:                    0862 6:20CR02045-001


                                      STANDARD CONDITIONS OF SUPERVISION
As part of the defendant’s supervision, the defendant must comply with the following standard conditions of supervision. These
conditions are imposed because they establish the basic expectations for the defendant’s behavior while on supervision and identify the
minimum tools needed by probation officers to keep informed, report to the court about, and bring about improvements in the defendant’s
conduct and condition.

  1)   The defendant must report to the probation office in the federal judicial district where the defendant is authorized to reside within
       72 hours of the time the defendant was sentenced and/or released from imprisonment, unless the probation officer instructs the
       defendant to report to a different probation office or within a different time frame.
  2)   After initially reporting to the probation office, the defendant will receive instructions from the court or the probation officer
       about how and when the defendant must report to the probation officer, and the defendant must report to the probation officer as
       instructed. The defendant must also appear in court as required.
  3)   The defendant must not knowingly leave the federal judicial district where the defendant is authorized to reside without first
       getting permission from the court or the probation officer.
  4)   The defendant must answer truthfully the questions asked by the defendant’s probation officer.
  5)   The defendant must live at a place approved by the probation officer. If the defendant plans to change where the defendant lives
       or anything about the defendant’s living arrangements (such as the people the defendant lives with), the defendant must notify
       the probation officer at least 10 days before the change. If notifying the probation officer in advance is not possible due to
       unanticipated circumstances, the defendant must notify the probation officer within 72 hours of becoming aware of a change or
       expected change.
  6)   The defendant must allow the probation officer to visit the defendant at any time at the defendant’s home or elsewhere, and the
       defendant must permit the probation officer to take any items prohibited by the conditions of the defendant’s supervision that he
       or she observes in plain view.
  7)   The defendant must work full time (at least 30 hours per week) at a lawful type of employment, unless the probation officer
       excuses the defendant from doing so. If the defendant does not have full-time employment, the defendant must try to find full-
       time employment, unless the probation officer excuses the defendant from doing so. If the defendant plans to change where the
       defendant works or anything about the defendant’s work (such as the defendant’s position or the defendant’s job responsibilities),
       the defendant must notify the probation officer at least 10 days before the change. If notifying the probation officer at least 10
       days in advance is not possible due to unanticipated circumstances, the defendant must notify the probation officer within 72
       hours of becoming aware of a change or expected change.
  8)   The defendant must not communicate or interact with someone the defendant knows is engaged in criminal activity. If the
       defendant knows someone has been convicted of a felony, the defendant must not knowingly communicate or interact with that
       person without first getting the permission of the probation officer.
  9)   If the defendant is arrested or questioned by a law enforcement officer, the defendant must notify the probation officer within 72
       hours.
10)    The defendant must not own, possess, or have access to a firearm, ammunition, destructive device, or dangerous weapon (i.e.,
       anything that was designed, or was modified for, the specific purpose of causing bodily injury or death to another person such as
       nunchakus or tasers).
11)    The defendant must not act or make any agreement with a law enforcement agency to act as a confidential human source or
       informant without first getting the permission of the court.
12)    As directed by the probation officer, the defendant must notify third parties of risks that may be occasioned by the defendant’s
       criminal record or personal history or characteristics and must permit the probation officer to make such notifications and to
       confirm the defendant’s compliance with such notification requirement.
13)    The defendant must follow the instructions of the probation officer related to the conditions of supervision.

                                       SPECIAL CONDITIONS OF SUPERVISION
The defendant must comply with the following special conditions as ordered by the Court and implemented by the United States Probation
Office:

1.       The defendant must submit the defendant’s person, property, house, residence, vehicle, papers, computers [as
         defined in 18 U.S.C. § 1030(e)(1)], other electronic communications or data storage devices or media, or office,
         to a search conducted by a United States Probation Officer. Failure to submit to a search may be grounds for
         revocation of release. The defendant must warn any other occupants that the premises may be subject to
         searches pursuant to this condition. The United States Probation Office may conduct a search under this
         condition only when reasonable suspicion exists that the defendant has violated a condition of supervision and
         that the areas to be searched contain evidence of this violation. Any search must be conducted at a reasonable
         time and in a reasonable manner.

2.       The defendant must participate in a substance abuse evaluation. The defendant must complete any
         recommended treatment program, which may include a cognitive behavioral group, and follow the rules and
         regulations of the treatment program. The defendant must participate in a program of testing for substance
         abuse. The defendant must not attempt to obstruct or tamper with the testing methods.

3.       If not employed at a lawful type of employment as deemed appropriate by the United States Probation Office,
         the defendant must participate in employment workshops and report, as directed, to the United States
         Probation Office to provide verification of daily job search results or other employment related activities. In
         the event the defendant fails to secure employment, participate in the employment workshops, or provide
         verification of daily job search results, the defendant may be required to perform up to 20 hours of community
         service per week until employed.


These conditions have been read to me. I fully understand the conditions and have been provided a copy of them. Upon a finding of a
violation of supervision, I understand the Court may: (1) revoke supervision; (2) extend the term of supervision; and/or (3) modify the
condition of supervision.

                       summarize the changes, including changes to victim-related adjustments, role in the offense, obstruction of justice, multiple counts, or acceptance of

AO 245 B&C (Rev. 01/17) Judgment and Amended Judgment in a Criminal Case
               Attachment (Page 4) — Statement of Reasons

DEFENDANT:                KIERIN CRAIG JOHNSON
CASE NUMBER:              0862 6:20CR02045-001
DISTRICT:                 Northern District of Iowa
                                                     STATEMENT OF REASONS
VII.    COURT DETERMINATIONS OF RESTITUTION
        A.    Restitution not applicable.
        B. Total amount of restitution: $
        C. Restitution not ordered: (Check only one)
             1.          For offenses for which restitution is otherwise mandatory under 18 U.S.C. § 3663A, restitution is not ordered because
                          the number of identifiable victims is so large as to make restitution impracticable under 18 U.S.C. § 3663A(c)(3)(A).
             2.          For offenses for which restitution is otherwise mandatory under 18 U.S.C. § 3663A, restitution is not ordered
                          because determining complex issues of fact and relating them to the cause or amount of the victims’ losses would
                          complicate or prolong the sentencing process to a degree that the need to provide restitution to any victim would be
                          outweighed by the burden on the sentencing process under 18 U.S.C. § 3663A(c)(3)(B).
             3.          For other offenses for which restitution is authorized under 18 U.S.C. § 3663 and/or required by the sentencing
                          guidelines, restitution is not ordered because the complication and prolongation of the sentencing process resulting
                          from the fashioning of a restitution order outweigh the need to provide restitution to any victims under 18 U.S.C.
                          § 3663(a)(1)(B)(ii).
             4.          For offenses for which restitution is otherwise mandatory under 18 U.S.C. §§ 1593, 2248, 2259, 2264, 2327 or
                          3663A, restitution is not ordered because the victim(s)'(s) losses were not ascertainable (18 U.S.C. § 3664(d)(5)).
             5.          For offenses for which restitution is otherwise mandatory under 18 U.S.C. §§ 1593, 2248, 2259, 2264, 2327 or
                          3663A, restitution is not ordered because the victim(s) elected to not participate in any phase of determining the
                          restitution order (18 U.S.C. § 3664(g)(1)).
             6.          Restitution is not ordered for other reasons: (Explain)

       D.     Partial restitution is ordered for these reasons: (18 U.S.C. § 3553(c))
