To convict the Defendant of indecent exposure to a minor, the State must prove the following elements:
1. That the Defendant knowingly or purposely [exposed his/her genitals or intimate parts by any means, including electronic communication] to _________________________;
AND
2. That the Defendant acted under circumstances in which he/she knew the conduct would be likely to cause affront or alarm in order to [abuse, humiliate, harass, or degrade ____________________] [arouse or gratify the Defendant's own sexual response or desire or the sexual response or desire of any person].
AND
3. That the Defendant knew the conduct would be observed by a person who is under 16 years of age.
AND
4. That the Defendant is more than 4 years older than that person.
If you find from your consideration of all of the evidence that these elements have been proved beyond a reasonable doubt, then you should find the Defendant guilty.
If, on the other hand, you find from your consideration of all the evidence that any of these elements has not been proved beyond a reasonable doubt then you should find the Defendant not guilty.
