Well, no doubt it will be far clearer very soon---in the next laws.

In brief, L75C says that the stuff you need to disclose includes
partnership agreements and partnership experience.  L40D calls all
that stuff by one word, understanding.  Unfortunately, as you point
out, the laws blur that one-word summary, sometimes calling it
agreement.  I bet this won't happen in the next laws.
