DIRECTIONS FOR APPLICATION FOR LICENSE AS A FOREIGN LEGAL CONSULTANT
(Read all of these directions carefully before attempting to answer any questions.)

1. This is a statement made under oath. Applicant's failure to fully and accurately disclose any fact or information called for by any question may result in the denial of the application, or if applicant shall have been licensed before the discovery thereof, in the revocation of the applicant's license to practice as a foreign legal consultant.

2. Answers must be in BLACK INK, preferably in typewriting, but may be in the applicant's handwriting or hand printing. Write legibly.

3. Unless otherwise indicated, every question and every part of each question must be answered, even though the answer may be negative.

4. Where "YES" or "NO" suffices, employ that form in answer.

5. If the applicant cannot comply with any of the requirements, state in detail the efforts made to comply and why the applicant cannot. Answers on information and belief will be accepted only in connection with matters which the applicant cannot be expected to remember because of extreme youth or other equally sufficient reason. All statements made on information and belief must be so designated in the sworn statement, and the sources of information must be given.

6. Should the space left for any answer be insufficient, the applicant shall complete the answer on a rider page, specifying the number of the question to which it relates. More than one rider may occupy a rider page. Each rider page should be signed.

7. In stating addresses, give street and number, if any, city, town, zip code, county, and state, or foreign country.

8. In giving a period which is continuing as of the date of verification of this sworn statement, state such period as continuing "to date."
