Spouse's income — 2016 — State of Alaska Retirement Plan

1. (Part HLA): | have received the approval of the Chief Judge of the Seventh Circuit to teach at the University of Chicago. This income therefore is "outside

earned imcome” rather than an "honorarium" within the meaning of the Ethics Reform Act of 1989, 1 accepted gross income exceeding the statutory cap (15% of

Level Il of the Executive Schedule) because, under §3(b) of the regulations of the Judicial Conference implementing this statute, "outside earned income” includes

only net taxable income, and therefore excludes pension contributions as well as the “ordinary and necessary expenses paid or incurred in producing this income.”

Some of the income reported in Part 111A was contributed to a pension plan through the University of Chicago as part of a salary reduction plan and therefore

does not count for statutory purposes. Moreover, the ordinary and necessary expenses of producing the income--including the cost of commuting between the

courthouse and the Law School and the expenses of equipment and books for my Law School office--ure substantial. Net taxable mcome is less than the statutory

naximum.

2. (Part V): The Union League Club of Chicago extends to federal judges the ability to use the Club's facilities without formal membership. In 2016 judges paid

dues of $115.50 per month from Junuary through May and $120.50 per month from June through December. Judges pay for all meals and other services at the

sume price as members. The Committee on Codes of Conduct has concluded (Opinion 2071) that this arrangement does not entail a gift element. In light of

Opinion 2071 1 will omit any mention of the Union League Club from Part V of future years’ reports.

3. (Part VII): My wife had investments listed us lines 63-82 of Part VII that represented pension savings from former employers. All of the investments she held

when we married were rolled over last June (trunsactions reflected m lines 63-82) mto a single Vanguard mutual fund (line 83 of Part VII). As of June 2016 this

Vanguard fund is my wife's sole investment.

4. (Part VII): Dividends and capital gains from all mutual funds listed in Part VII are reinvested automatically.

5. (Part VII): Information formerly m this note has been moved to line stems in Part VII at the request of the Committee on Financial Disclosure.

6, (Part VII): Income from my TIAA-CREF retirement accounts, and my wife's PacifiCorp K Plus Employee Savings Plan accounts, is shown as “none” because

TIAA-CREF and PacifiCorp do not supply income information. Statements from TIAA-CREF and PacifiCorp show the change in each portfolio’s value over

the course of each quarter but not how much of that change is attributable to come (interest or dividends) und how much to change in the market price of the

mvestments. It is accordingly impossible to disentangle these components.
