Following my withdrawal from the firm, the long-term disability insurance that I acquired through the firm will be terminated. | Feb. 15, 2017 |
| Kellogg Huber Hansen Todd Evans & Figel, PLLC | Washington, District of Columbia | Following my withdrawal from the firm and the final contribution to my 401(k) described above (i.e., 5% of my distributions up to $13,250), there will be no additional contributions to this 401(k) plan while I am in government service.
