DEFENDANT'S ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF PLEA BARGAIN OFFER

	This is to confirm that my attorney,                          , has discussed with me the offer made by the United State's Attorney's Office in my case.
	The offer in this case is:                                                                                                      
                                                                                                                                                         
	I understand that, in Federal Court, the plea bargain is not binding upon the judge.  I further understand that, even if counts are dismissed as part of the plea bargain, the judge will consider all relevant evidence (even evidence of the dismissed counts) in determining my sentence.  Further, I understand that Sentencing Guidelines have been established which set forth an advisory range of punishment for each case.  My attorney has discussed these Guidelines with me, but I also understand that the judge has authority to depart from the Sentencing Guideline range as they are only advisory.  If this happens, I will not be allowed to withdraw my guilty plea because the sentence is more than I expected or anticipated.
	My attorney has informed me of the plea bargain offer, and it is my decision to ACCEPT/REJECT the offer.
	SIGNED this          day of                                   , 20        .
