                                                          CONFIDENTIAL
                                                          (When   Filled In)



                                           TERMINATION OF SECRECY AGREEMENT


                              I David A. Phillips am about to terminate my association with
                    the Central Intelligence Agency. I realize that, by virtue of my duties with that agency, I have
                    been  the  recipient of information and  intelligence that concern te  present and future se-
                    curity of the United States of America.

                    2. I have read and  understand the provisions of the espionage  laws  (sections 793, 794, and
                    798  of Title 18, United States Code)  and  I am aware  that unauthorized disclosure of classi-
                    fied information relating to the national defense may subject me to prosecution for violation of
                    those laws. Further, I am aware that the National Security Act of 1947 specifically requires the
                    protection of intelligence sources and methods from unauthorized  disclosure.

                    3. 1 will never divulge, publish, or reveal by writing, word, conduct, or otherwise any clas-
                    sified information, or any information concerning intelligence or CIA that has not been made
                    public by  CIA, to any  unauthorized person  including, but not limited to, any future govern-
                    mental or private employer  or official without the express written consent of the Director of
                    Central Intelligence or his representative.

                    4. I do not now  have in my  possession, custody, or control, nor am I retaining or taking away
                    from CIA,  any classified or unclassified documents or materials that are the property of CIA,
                    or the custodial responsibility of CIA, having come into my possession as a result of my duties
                    with CIA   or otherwise.

                    5. I have been invited to submit in writing any monetary  claims that I may have against CIA
                    or the  United States Government   that may   in any way  necessitate the disclosure of infor-
                    mation  described herein. I  have  been advised  that any such  claims will receive full legal
                    consideration. In the event, however, that I am  not satisfied with the decisions of CIA con-
                    cerning any  present or future claims I may  submit,  I will not  take any  action to obtain
                    satisfaction without prior written notice to CIA, and then only in accordance  with such  se-
                    curity advice as CIA will furnish me.

                    6. During my  exit processing and during my  period of employment   with  the Central Intelli-
                    gence Agency,  I have been  given an  opportunity to report all information about the Agency,
                    its personnel, and its operation that I consider should receive official cognizance. Therefore,
                    I am not aware  of any information that it is my duty, in the national interest or otherwise, to
                    disclose to the Central Intelligence Agency, nor am  I aware of any violations or breaches of
                    security that I have not officially reported, except as set forth on attachments to this sheet.

                    7. I will report without delay to the appropriate CIA officials, or the Federal Bureau of In-
                    vestigation, any incident wherein an attempt is made  by  any  unauthorized person  to solicit
                    classified information from me.

                    8. I have been  advised  that 'in the event I am  called upon   by  the properly  constituted
                    authorities to testify or provide information that I am pledged hereby not to disclose, I will
                    notify CIA immediately;  I will also advise said authorities of my secrecy commitments to the
                    United States Government,   and  I will request. that my obligation to testify be established
                    before I am required to do  so.                                                 RETURN TO CIA
                                                                                                 Background   Use  Only
