SUPERVISED RELEASE
Upon release from imprisonment, you will be on supervised release for a term of 3 years on each of Counts 1 and

in the district to which you are released.

While on supervised release, you must not commit another federal, state, or local crime, must refrain from any
unlawful use of a controlled substance and must comply with the mandatory and standard conditions that have been adopted
by this court as set forth below.

You must submit to one drug test within 15 days of commencement of supervised release and at least two tests

If this judgment imposes a fine, special assessment, costs, or restitution obligation, it is a condition of supervised
release that you pay any such fine, assessments, costs, and restitution that remains unpaid at the commencement of the
term of supervised release.

You must comply with the following special conditions:

ALCOHOL/DRUG TESTING AND TREATMENT

You must refrain from the illegal possession and use of drugs, including prescription medication not prescribed in
your name, and the use of alcohol, and must submit to urinalysis or other forms of testing to ensure compliance. It
is further ordered that you must submit to evaluation and treatment, on an outpatient or inpatient basis, as approved
by the U.S. Probation Office. You must abide by the rules of any program and must remain in treatment until
satisfactorily discharged by the Court. You must alert all medical professionals of any prior substance abuse history,
including any prior history of prescription drug abuse. The U.S. Probation Office will supervise your compliance with
this condition.

FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

Upon request, you must provide the U.S. Probation Office with full disclosure of your financial records, including co-
mingled income, expenses, assets and liabilities, to include yearly income tax returns. With the exception of the
financial accounts reported and noted within the presentence report, you are prohibited from maintaining and/or
opening any additional individual and/or joint checking, savings, or other financial accounts, for either personal or
business purposes, without the knowledge and approval of the U.S. Probation Office. You must cooperate with the

a United States probation officer. Failure to submit to a search may be grounds for revocation of release. You must
warn any other occupants that the premises may be subject to searches pursuant to this condition. The probation
officer may conduct a search under this condition only when reasonable suspicion exists that you have violated a
condition of supervision and that the areas to be searched contain evidence of this violation. Any search must be

STANDARD CONDITIONS OF SUPERVISION
As part of your supervised release, you must comply with the following standard conditions of supervision. These conditions
are imposed because they establish the basic expectations for your 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 your conduct
and condition.

1) You must report to the probation office in the federal judicial district where you are authorized to reside within 72 hours
of your release from imprisonment, unless the probation officer instructs you to report to a different probation office or
within a different time frame.

2) After initially reporting to the probation office, you will receive instructions from the court or the probation officer about
how and when you must report to the probation officer, and you must report to the probation officer as instructed.

3) You must not knowingly leave the federal judicial district where you are authorized to reside without first getting
permission from the court or the probation officer.

4) You must answer truthfully the questions asked by your probation officer.

5) You must live at a place approved by the probation officer. If you plan to change where you live or anything about your
living arrangements (such as the people you live with), you 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, you must notify
the probation officer within 72 hours of becoming aware of a change or expected change.

6) You must allow the probation officer to visit you at any time at your home or elsewhere, and you must permit the
probation officer to take any items prohibited by the conditions of your supervision that he or she observes in plain
view.

7) You must work full time (at least 30 hours per week) at a lawful type of employment, unless the probation officer
excuses you from doing so. If you do not have fulltime employment you must try to find full-time employment, unless
the probation officer excuses you from doing so. If you plan to change where you work or anything about your work
(such as your position or your job responsibilities), you 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, you must notify the probation officer within 72 hours of becoming aware of a change or expected
change.

8) You must not communicate or interact with someone you know is engaged in criminal activity. If you know someone
has been convicted of a felony, you must not knowingly communicate or interact with that person without first getting
the permission of the probation officer.

9) If you are arrested or questioned by a law enforcement officer, you must notify the probation officer within 72 hours.

10) You 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) You 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) If the probation officer determines that you pose a risk to another person (including an organization), the probation
officer may require you to notify the person about the risk and you must comply with that instruction. The probation
officer may contact the person and confirm that you have notified the person about the risk.
