1. As authorized
				pursuant to Correction Law, article 26-A, I agree to participate in the
				Department of Correctional Services Shock Incarceration Program. This agreement
				is made voluntarily and without coercion.
2. I understand the Shock Incarceration
				Program is a six-month discipline and treatment-oriented program. The
				activities involve intensive instructions in military bearing, courtesy,
				drills, physical exercise, network training, intensified structured work
				program, substance and alcohol counseling and structured educational
				programming. From the outset, I am required to practice good grooming and
				personal hygiene habits.
3. I
				promise that I shall abide by all the conditions specified in this agreement
				and all other conditions and instructions given to me by any representative of
				the Department of Correctional Services and will be subject to removal from the
				program for failure to do so.
4. I
				understand that during this six-month period, I will wear only a uniform
				provided for me. Other civilian clothing and jewelry will not be
				permitted.
5. Packages will not be
				permitted and personal property will be limited, in accordance with Shock
				Incarceration rules.
6. Visits,
				telephone, religious services, commissary privileges and recreational
				activities will be limited.
7. I
				agree to abide by all rules of the Shock Incarceration Facility. I understand
				that strict discipline will be exercised at all times and that failure to
				comply with such rules will result in my removal from the Shock Incarceration
				Program.
8. I understand that at
				any time during the six-month shock incarceration period, I may voluntarily
				request removal from the program and that I will be transferred to a general
				confinement correctional facility to continue my court-imposed
				sentence.
9. I agree that I will
				not apply to participate in any other correctional program during the six-month
				shock incarceration program period.
10. If additional criminal charges are lodged
				against me, I agree that I may be removed from the program in the discretion of
				the Department of Correctional Services.
I accept the foregoing program and agree to be bound by the
				  terms and conditions thereof. I understand that my participation in the program
				  is a privilege that may be revoked at any time at the sole discretion of the
				  Commissioner. I understand that I must successfully complete the entire program
				  to obtain a certificate of earned eligibility upon the completion of said
				  program, and in the event that I do not successfully complete said program, for
				  any reason, I will be returned to a nonshock incarceration correctional
				  facility to continue service of my sentence.
I have read and understand the above Memo of Agreement, and I
				  agree to fully abide by the terms of the memo.
