The post-employment restrictions set forth in section 10(k) of the FDI Act and [§ 264a.3](/cfr/12/264a.3.md) do not apply to any officer or employee of the Federal Reserve, or any former officer or employee of the Federal Reserve, if—

- (a) The individual ceased to be an officer or employee of the Federal Reserve before December 17, 2005; or
- (b) The Chairman of the Board of Governors certifies, in writing and on a case-by-case basis, that granting the individual a waiver of the restrictions would not affect the integrity of the Federal Reserve's supervisory program.
