LINE 25. AFFILIATED ENTITY ADD: Identify the name, address, and principal place of business of any entity other than the client that contributes in excess of $5,000 toward the registrant's lobbying activities in a quarterly period and actively participates in the planning, supervision, or control of such activities.

The LDA amendments require disclosure of some affiliates that were heretofore undisclosed, and retained the requirement for listing those affiliates that contribute in excess of $5,000 and in whole or major part (20%) plans, supervises or controls such lobbying activities.

The LDA Amendments state in part: “No disclosure is required under paragraph (3)(B) if the organization that would be identified as affiliated with the client is listed on the client’s publicly accessible Internet website as being a member of or contributor to the client unless the organization in whole or in major part plans, supervises or controls such lobbying activities.”  If a registrant relies upon the preceding sentence, the registrant must disclose the specific Internet address of the web page containing the information relied upon.  If the registrant chooses to use the website, it is responsible for ensuring that the web page remains valid and accurate until a new LD-2 is filed with updated information.  Please enter the URL underneath the address of any affiliates that apply.
