**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:**
Section 8 prohibits, with certain exceptions, one person from serving as a director or officer of two competing corporations if two thresholds are met. Competitor corporations are covered by section 8 if each one has capital, surplus, and undivided profits aggregating more than $10,000,000, with the exception that no corporation is covered if the competitive sales of either corporation are less than $1,000,000. Section 8(a)(5) requires the Federal Trade Commission to revise those thresholds annually, based on the change in gross national product. The new thresholds, which take effect immediately, are $51,380,000 for section 8(a)(1), and $5,138,000 for section 8(a)(2)(A).
*Authority:* 15 U.S.C. 19(a)(5).
