      In subsection (a), the definition of "United States" is omitted
    as unnecessary because, within 40:13f-13p, the words "United
    States" are used in the geographical sense only in 40:13n(a)(2) and
    (c) and the restatement of those provisions, in section 6121 of the
    revised title, substitutes the words "any State" for "any part of
    the United States".
      Before clause (1), the words "In this chapter, the following
    definitions apply" are substituted for "As used in sections 13f to
    13p of this title, the term - " for clarity. The terms are not used
    in 40:13a-13e, so using them chapter-wide does not expand their
    scope.
      In clause (2), the words "the Virgin Islands, Guam, the Northern
    Mariana Islands, the Federal States of Micronesia, the Marshall
    Islands, Palau, and any territory or possession of the United
    States" are substituted for "any territory or possession of the
    United States" to clarify that the provisions of the source law
    apply to those jurisdictions.
      In subsection (b), before clause (1), the words "In addition to
    the property referred to in the preceding sentence, for the
    purposes of sections 13f to 13p of this title, the Supreme Court
    grounds" are omitted as unnecessary.
