SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The U.S.-India CEO Forum, consisting of both 
private and public sector members, brings together leaders of the 
respective business communities of the United States and India to 
discuss issues of mutual interest, particularly ways to strengthen the 
economic and commercial ties between the two countries, and to 
communicate their joint recommendations to the U.S. and Indian 
governments. The Forum will have U.S. and Indian co-chairs; the 
Secretary of Commerce and the Deputy National Security Advisor for 
International Economic Affairs will co-chair the Forum on the U.S. 
side. The Forum will include a Committee comprising private sector 
members. The Committee will be composed of two Sections, with the U.S. 
section consisting of up to 17 members from the private sector 
representing the views and interests of the private sector business 
community in the United States. Each government will appoint the 
members to its respective Section. The Committee will provide 
recommendations to the two governments and their senior officials that 
reflect private sector views, needs, and concerns about the creation of 
an environment in which their respective private sectors can partner, 
thrive, and enhance bilateral commercial ties to expand trade and 
economic links between the United States and India. The Committee will 
work in tandem with, and provide input to, the U.S.-India Strategic and 
Commercial Dialogue.
    Candidates are currently being sought for membership on the U.S. 
Section of the Committee. Each candidate must be the Chief Executive 
Officer or President (or have a comparable level of responsibility) of 
a U.S.-owned or controlled company that is incorporated in and has its 
main headquarters located in the United States and is currently doing 
business in both India and the United States. Each candidate also must 
be a U.S. citizen or otherwise legally authorized to work in the United 
States and be able to travel to India and locations in the United 
States to attend official Forum meetings as well as U.S. Section 
meetings. In addition, the candidate may not be a registered foreign 
agent under the Foreign Agents Registration Act of 1938, as amended.
    Evaluation of applications for membership in the U.S. Section by 
eligible individuals will be based on the following criteria:
     A demonstrated commitment by the individual's company to 
the Indian market either through exports or investment.
     A demonstrated strong interest in India and its economic 
development.
     The ability to offer a broad perspective and business 
experience to the discussions.
     The ability to address cross-cutting issues that affect 
the entire business community.
     The ability to initiate and be responsible for activities 
in which the Forum will be active.
     Prior work by the applicant on the U.S. Section of the 
Committee.
    The evaluation of applications for membership in the U.S. Section 
will be undertaken by a committee of staff from multiple U.S. 
Government agencies. Members will be selected on the basis of who best 
will carry out the objectives of the Forum as stated in the first 
paragraph under Supplementary Information, above. The U.S. Section of 
the Committee should also include members who represent a diversity of 
business sectors and geographic locations. To the extent possible, 
Section members also should include representation from small, medium, 
and large firms.
    U.S. Section members will receive no compensation for their 
participation in Forum-related activities. Individual members will be 
responsible for all travel and related expenses associated with their 
participation in the Forum, including attendance at Committee and 
Section meetings. It is anticipated that the next Forum meeting will be 
held later in 2015. The U.S. and Indian Sections should be prepared to 
work together ahead of that time to prepare recommendations to the U.S. 
and Indian governments. Only appointed members may participate in 
official Forum meetings; substitutes and alternates will not be 
designated. U.S. Section members will normally serve for two-year terms 
but may be reappointed. In the event of a vacancy after members of the 
U.S. Section are appointed, candidates not previously selected may be 
considered to fill the vacancy based on material submitted in response 
to this notice.
    To be considered for membership in the U.S. Section, please submit 
the following information as instructed in the ADDRESSES and DATES 
captions above: Name and title of the individual requesting 
consideration; name and address of company's headquarters; location of 
incorporation; size of the company; size of company's export trade, 
investment, and nature of operations or interest in India; and a brief 
statement of why the candidate should be considered, including 
information about the candidate's ability to initiate and be 
responsible for activities in which the Forum will be active. 
Candidates that have previously been members of the U.S. Section need 
only provide a letter expressing their interest in re-applying and 
indicating any changes to the application materials previously 
supplied. All candidates will be notified of whether they have been 
selected.

    Dated: April 7, 2015.
