Part | - Trusts 1 and 2: 1 am the trustee for two grantor trusts set up by a friend for his children. As grantor trusts, all investment decisions are made by the

grantor (my friend) und not by me as trustee. Assets of the trusts are not listed in Part VII because | did not establish the trusts, | have never received and will not

receive any income from these trusts, and 1 never have had, or will have, any beneficial interest in the principal or income of the trusts, I understand based on the

instructions that as a result the assets of the trusts are not reportible,

Parts [1 and 111-A: Income from Debevoise & Plimpton LLP: | continue to receive pension payments from Debevoise & Plimpton LLP pursuant to the firm's

retirement program, and | have a continuing interest in the firm's Cash Balance Plan. | plan to recuse myself from matters in which Debevoise & Plimpton LLP is

counsel.

Part V, Gifts: Debevoise & Plimpton LLP holds dinners to honor recently retired partners. My wife and I attended such & dinner in March 2016. 1 do not believe

this qualifies as a gift for reporting purposes but | am reporting it here m an abundance of caution. | have been informed by Debevoise & Plimpton LLP that the

per-person cost of the event was approximately $360. The reported amount here ($720.00) represents attendance by myself and my wife.

Part VII, Trusts: see the first item sbove with respect to the assets of Trusts | and 2.

Part VII, Rental Properties {items 1 and 2): income reported is gross rental income before deductions for operating expenses, local taxes, management

commissions, condominium and homeowner association fees, and other costs,

Part VII, Equitable Variable Life Insurance (item 7): this reflects investment returns in two variable life insurance policies. The investment option is the

guaranteed interest option. The value at the end of the reporting period reflects cash value, not the potential insurance coverage.

Part VII, Met Life/Fidelity Variable Insurance Products Index S00 Portfolio (item 9): this represents investments that fund premiums in a variable life insurance

policy at Met Life. The income listed is based on reported returns during the relevant period. The value at the close of the reporting period is the cash value of the

investment rather than the potential insurance coverage,

Part VII: items 16-99 are bused on information provided by my financial advisor.

Part VII, item 33; 1 previously listed this as "cash/money market." By way of explanation: when there is cash in this brokerage account it is automatically put in

money market funds, My report for the prior year listed the Fidelity Municipal Money Market (FTEXX) which is where cash was put. T have corrected line 33 to

list the additional fund into which cash had been put at year-end 2016. NOTE: The reports that I received from my financial advisor do not list changes in these

money market account balances as "scquisitions” or “dispositions” because they really are just changes in cush balances in what are the equivalent of brokerage

deposit accounts; of

therwise every change in a cash balance from day to day would have to be listed as an “acquisition” or as a "disposition." For that reason |

did not list “acquisitions” or “dispositions” in lines 21 and 33. Line 33 reflects the total cash balance in the relevant money market account at year end and it also

shows the income received. 1 hope this clarifies und answers the questions about this item,

Part VIL, item 91: My initial report, in 2015, showed four retirement accounts. During 2015 (not long after the filing of my mitial report) | combined two of

the retirement accounts into a single rollover account. My report for the calendar year 2016 listed all of the combined holdings in the rollover account under

"Retirement Account No. 1." | believed that | had deleted any duplicative information from the prior 2015 listings. However, I must have inadvertently failed to

delete the entries from my 2015 report for "retirement account no. 4." The result was that my 2016 report included a repetition of entries from my 2015 report for

an account that no longer existed. All holdings are correctly reflected in this report for 2016.
