The individual expenditures shall be reported according to the following categories:

(1) expenditures for hospitality provided in the form of food and beverage;

(2) expenditures for entertainment, gifts, honoraria or payments to state officers and employees;

(3) expenditures for mass media communica-tions;

(4) expenditures for recreation provided as hospitality;

(5) expenditures for communication for the purpose of influencing legislative or executive action; and

(6) other reportable expenditures.

A lobbyist shall be considered most directly connected with an expenditure if the lobbyist incurs the debt, regardless of how the actual payment is made. The name and address of the lobbyist's employer shall be listed for all reportable expenditures.

(b) Entertainment, gifts, honoraria and payments. Entertainment, gifts, honoraria and payments made by the lobbyist's employer shall be reported by the lobbyist if, by themselves or in combination with entertainment, gifts, honoraria or payments made by the lobbyist, the reporting threshold is exceeded and if the lobbyist is the lobbyist of the employer most directly connected therewith. A lobbyist shall be considered most directly connected with entertainment, a gift, honoraria or payment if the lobbyist reaches the agreement for its acceptance, regardless of how the underlying debt is paid.
