Terms of Agreement
Date
Dear
1. As the result of discussions between you and officials of the Central Intelligence Agency, you have
indicated your willingness to join the CIA Civilian Specialist Reserve. In order that this Reserve may be
composed of persons who are competent and prepared for their particular activities, a program of immediate
training and indoctrination is being undertaken. To clarify your status, and the rights, benefits, and obli-
gations involved, terms of agreement are herewith established.
2. It is our understanding that you are:
a. a U.S. citizen;
b. not presently employed in any fashion by the Federal Government;
c. not a member of the Reserve component of any of the Armed Forces (including the Coast Guard)
or their auxiliaries;
d. available for training periods not to exceed a total of 15 days in any one year; and
e. available for full-time employment with the Agency in event of a national emergency.
3. In determining your eligibility, we have relied upon your statements on these factors. Your accept-
ance of this agreement will verify the fact that these statements are an accurate reflection of your status
at the present time and also serve as an assurance to the Agency that if at any time they change, you will
notify the Agency accordingly.
4. In reliance upon such understanding, you will become a member of the CIA Civilian Specialist Re-
serve in a compensation bracket equivalent to GS- upon written acceptance of this agreement subject
only to subsequent medical and security approval by this Agency.
5. While you have been selected because of your specialized knowledge and experience, periods of
training will be required to keep you informed of developments in the Agency. On your part, then, it is
understood that you will undertake such training and related travel as may be requested by the Agency
provided it does not exceed 15 days in any given year. During such periods as you are engaged in train-
ing duty (within this understanding) in the Reserve you will be entitled to compensation at the rate of
per diem, when actually employed. This will be subject to deductions for Federal and, in some
instances, State income taxes as well as Social Security.
6. During the course of travel away from your city of residence or your usual place of work for purposes
of training duty, you will be entitled to payment of travel expenses including per diem in accordance with
Agency regulations generally applicable to personnel in staff status.
7. While you are not an employee of the U. S. Government in the usual sense during the course of your
services under this agreement, you will nevertheless be entitled while participating in training activity
specified by the Agency to all of the provisions accorded employees for death, dismemberment or disa-
bility under the Federal Employees Compensation Act. You will not, however, be entitled to: leave,
Civil Service Retirement or insurance as the result of your services hereunder. On the other hand, you
should be governed by the recognition that payments made by the Government for periods of training here-
under subject you to limitations imposed by Federal legislation respecting your political activities, con-
flicts of interest, dual compensation, and liability for U. S. Federal income tax during such periods.
8. The purpose of this intermediate status is essentially designed to accommodate the needs of train-
ing and preparedness for your ultimate work with the Agency once a condition of national emergency occurs.
At that time, at the discretion of the Agency, you may be converted to a full staff status carrying all of the

concomitant rights, benefits, privileges, and obligations of any person serving as a full-time employee of

lected; or if any of the conditions mentioned above in paragraph 2 cease to be effective. Notice of ter-
mination will be given to you in writing by a designated representative of the Agency.
