 **Returns:** `Void`
 
+#### OnEnding
+
+**Status**: [Development](../document-status.md)
+
+`OnEnding` is called during the span `End()` operation, after the end timestamp has been set. The Span object is still mutable (i.e., `SetAttribute`, `AddLink`, `AddEvent` can be called) while `OnEnding` is called.
+This method MUST be called synchronously within the [`Span.End()` API](api.md#end),
+therefore it should not block or throw an exception.
+If multiple `SpanProcessors` are registered, their `OnEnding` callbacks
+are invoked in the order they have been registered.
+The SDK MUST guarantee that the span can no longer be modified by any other thread
+before invoking `OnEnding` of the first `SpanProcessor`. From that point on, modifications
+are only allowed synchronously from within the invoked `OnEnding` callbacks.  All registered SpanProcessor `OnEnding` callbacks are executed before any SpanProcessor's `OnEnd` callback is invoked.
+
+**Parameters:**
+
+* `span` - a [read/write span object](#additional-span-interfaces) for the span which is about to be ended.
+
+**Returns:** `Void`
+
 #### OnEnd(Span)
 
 `OnEnd` is called after a span is ended (i.e., the end timestamp is already set).
