FOREIGN ASSETS CONTROL REGULATIONS FOR THE FINANCIAL COMMUNITY

I. Introduction

The Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) administers a series of laws that
impose economic sanctions against hostile targets to further U.S. foreign policy
and national security objectives. Economic sanctions are powerful foreign policy
tools.  Their success requires the active participation and support of every
financial institution.  The use of sanctions by the U.S. goes back to the
earliest days of the Republic through trade embargoes, blocked assets controls,
and other commercial and financial restrictions.  Many of them have been
multilateralized within the global community against pariah countries, as well
as being used against groups, such as narcotics traffickers and terrorists, who
threaten the security, economy, and safety of the United States. Management of
sanctions on the U.S. side is entrusted to the Secretary of the Treasury.

While OFAC is responsible for promulgating, developing, and administering the
sanctions for the Secretary under eight basic statutes, all of the bank
regulatory agencies cooperate in ensuring financial institution compliance with
the Regulations.

OFAC has designed this brochure to provide convenient, concise, up- to-date,
helpful information about its programs, including information on the laws and
regulations that OFAC administers.  We have tried to be complete and accurate.
We must caution readers, however, that there is no substitute for reading the
actual statutes, regulations, and other documents which apply.  Those are
controlling in the event of any inconsistency with material in this brochure.

connection with matters under its jurisdiction.

III. Civil Penalties

OFAC has authority to impose civil penalties for violations under IEEPA
(USD250,000 or twice the amount of the transaction), TWEA and the Libertad
Act(USD65,000), the Iraqi Sanctions Act (USD325,000), the Antiterrorism Act
(USD50,000 or two times the amount which should have been blocked, whichever is
greater), and the Foreign Narcotics Kingpin Designation Act (USD1,075,000).  
Each set of regulations contains procedures for Civil Penalties in Sections 
701 through 706 of the pertinent regulations.  Over the past several years, 
OFAC has had to impose millions of dollars in civil penalties involving U.S. 
banks.  The majority of the fines resulted from banks' failure to block 
illicit transfers when there was a reference to a targeted country or SDN. 
When it comes to OFAC's attention that an illicit transaction was processed 
through a U.S. bank without being blocked or rejected as appropriate, 
OFAC normally sends an administrative demand for information called a "602 
letter" to the bank requesting an explanation of how the transaction was 
processed.  Upon receipt of the bank's response to this
letter, the case may be referred to the Civil Penalties Division which issues a
"Prepenalty Notice" citing the violation and stating the amount of the proposed
penalty.  The bank then has thirty days to make a written presentation as to why
a penalty should not be imposed, or, if imposed, why it should be in a lesser
amount than proposed.  It is critical for banks to answer such "Prepenalty
Notices" since failure to respond may result in default judgements levying
maximum fines.  Mitigating factors in Civil Penalty procedures include self-
disclosure, the use and sophistication of interdict software, and other bank
compliance initiatives.  TWEA civil penalty and forfeiture proceedings include
the opportunity for an administrative hearing and pre-hearing discovery prior to
imposition of a penalty or forfeiture.

IV. Compliance Programs and Audit Procedures

The importance of establishing a compliance program and developing internal
audit procedures should be obvious to every financial institution.  Definite
expectations exist with regard to the processing of transactions involving
countries under sanctions. Banks are required to report all blockings to OFAC
within ten days of occurrence.  If your bank does not block and report a
transfer and another bank does, then your bank is in trouble.  A bank in non-
compliance may be opening itself to adverse publicity, fines, and even criminal
penalties (if violations are other than inadvertent).

It is often difficult to balance the demands of Federal and State bank examiners
with limitations on time, resources, and manpower imposed by bank management.
While every financial institution must comply with the same laws and
regulations, no one compliance program can be prepackaged for everyone in the
open marketplace. Every program must be tailored to meet the needs and structure
of individual financial institutions.

Over the past several years, the banking industry has developed special software
to "interdict" illicit funds transfers.  Many filters contain every name on
OFAC's list of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Entities along with
generic words for countries and cities.  Most of the systems screen every field
in incoming payment orders.  When such a system identifies a designated name in
a transfer, the transfer is automatically rejected, and the system directs a
reviewer to the illicit reference.  Though many of the systems were initially
designed to reduce the risk that a clerk might manually process a repair item
with an illicit reference, interdict software is now widely used to scan
"straight-through" transactions as well.  While OFAC does not treat even
completely automated processing of violative transactions as a full defense in
civil penalty proceedings, it does favorably consider a bank's business decision
to use interdict software as well as other good faith manual and electronic
compliance efforts in determining mitigation.

The Federal Bank Regulatory Agencies review financial institutions under their
supervision to determine the adequacy of compliance programs with regard to OFAC
Regulations.

It is suggested that every bank designate a "Compliance Officer" responsible for
monitoring compliance with its programs and an officer responsible for
overseeing blocked funds.  Formal compliance responsibilities may also be
assigned to all operations and systems managers.  Internal auditing departments
could be charged with assisting in the development of "corporate compliance
memoranda" and verifying that procedures, once established, are being followed.
One financial institution included the following paragraph in one of its
"compliance memoranda:"

Areas designated as responsible for implementation of compliance requirements,
policies, and procedures which are set forth in this corporate Compliance
Memorandum will incorporate them into new or existing operational procedures. To
assure the implementation of this policy, designated units must return the
enclosed implementation letter verifying that their area has implemented the
necessary procedures. If any unit has any questions concerning the policies and
procedures, it should contact Corporate Compliance.

An in-depth audit of each department in the bank should probably be conducted at
least once a year.  The compliance audit may either be incorporated into a
bank's standard auditing program or conducted separately.  Internal auditing
departments ought not to be surprised if they are questioned by Federal Bank
Examiners about their bank's  compliance procedures regarding OFAC Regulations.

An effective internal communication network is critical for regulatory
compliance.  Banks might consider including regulatory notices and explanations
in staff newsletters.  Compliance training programs ought to be initiated when
reviewing regulations in staff meetings, incorporating compliance requirements
into operating procedures, and joining with other banks to sponsor seminars.

All of OFAC's program "brochures," as well as SDN information, are available
free in downloadable camera-ready Adobe Acrobat "*.PDF" format over the Treasury
Department's World Wide Web Server. OFAC's Home Page site is
<http://www.treas.gov/ofac>.  The Page also contains a self-extracting ASCII
file of the SDN list in DOS, delimited, fixed-field, and country-specific
versions, a free Adobe Acrobat Reader to view and print "*.PDF" files, access to
all OFAC- related Executive Orders, U.N. Resolutions, statutes, regulations, and
the Code of Federal Regulations as well as to brochures in ASCII format, and to
OFAC's extended electronic information reading room at GPO (FAC_MISC).  All of
OFAC's "forms,"  including its Annual Report on Blocked Property, Cuban
Remittance  Affidavit, and license application are electronically available on
the site. Whenever there is a change in any of the data on OFAC's  Home Page,
the [DATE] changes on the face of the Page; users can automate their compliance
by structuring their Internet connection to use a Web browser to watch for that
date change, check a "What's new?" file to get the details about changes, and
download OFAC's latest information.  There is also a separate date-indicator for
OFAC's SDN list.  Call OFAC Compliance at 1-800-540-6322 with any questions.
OFAC also operates a free automated fax-on-demand service, which can be accessed
24 hours a day, seven days a week, by dialing (202)622-0077 from any touchtone
phone and following voice prompts.  OFAC documents kept up to date on the system
include program and general brochures, listings of Specially Designated
Nationals and Blocked Persons, including changes to the listings, licensing
guidelines, and Federal Register notices (including notices filed, but not yet
printed in the Federal Register). The "Index of Available Documents" is date-
specific. Whenever there is an update to any OFAC regulation, an addition or
removal of an SDN, or any other announcement from OFAC which affects banks, both
the International Financial Services Association in New York
(<http://www.intlbanking.org>) and the International Banking Operations
Association in South Florida (<http://www.iboa.com>) are alerted.  The U.S.
Commerce Department operates a monthly subscription CD-Rom service (the National
Trade Data Bank) with OFAC data in ASCII format (call (202)482-1986 for
information).  The free Federal Bulletin Board of the U.S. Government Printing
Office, which is linked to the Federal Register and Code of Federal Regulations,
carries all OFAC brochures in ASCII and Adobe/Acrobat "*.PDF" format, as well as
the entire Code of Federal Regulations containing OFAC regulations, all Federal
Register notices that OFAC puts out, and OFAC's extended electronic information
reading room (FAC_MISC).  For information on the Federal Bulletin Board call
(202)512-1530 or dial (202)512-1387 to connect.  The information is also
available over the Internet via  GPO ACCESS at <fedbbs.access.gpo.gov>.  The
U.S. Maritime Administration's Web site at <http://marad.dot.gov> contains a
special link to OFAC's brochures and information, including a flashing indicator
of late-breaking updates.  The U.S. Customs Service maintains a free Customs
Electronic Bulletin Board geared especially toward Customs House Brokers (OFAC's
information is available as a date-specific self-extracting DOS file,
"OFAC*.EXE" under "Files," and then "Customs Extra!," via the Internet at
<http://209.122.8.97> or "cebb.customs.treas.gov."  Major announcements are also
distributed to U.S. financial institutions through Fedwire bulletins and CHIPS
system broadcasts, as well as from time to time, in printed format through the
various Federal bank supervisory agencies.  Numerous other industry groups link
to OFAC's website, among them: the National Association of Securities Dealers
(<http://www.nasdr.com>), the Securites and Exchange Commission
(<http://www.sec.gov>), the Securities Industry Association
(<http://www.sia.com>), the American Society of Travel Agents
(<http://www.astanet.com>), the Institute of Real Estate Management
(<http://www.irem.org>), and the Commercial  Investment Real Estate Institute
(<http://www.cre.org>).

The Office of Foreign Assets Control has installed a special toll- free
telephone number, 1-800-540-OFAC (6322), for bank compliance inquiries.  The
number is specifically for the use of financial institutions and bank examiners.
OFAC also has a Miami branch office with a special bi-lingual hotline relating
to information about the Cuban embargo; that hotline number is (305)810-5170.

V. Terminology

There are a number of key phrases which consistently reappear in Treasury
sanctions:

A- Blocking

Also called "freezing," this is a form of controlling assets under U.S.
jurisdiction.  While title to blocked property remains with the designated
country or national, the exercise of the powers and privileges normally
associated with ownership is prohibited without authorization from OFAC.
Blocking immediately imposes an across- the-board prohibition against transfers
or transactions of any kind with regard to the property.

B- Blocked Account

An account with respect to which payments, transfers, withdrawals, or other
dealings may not be made except as licensed by OFAC or otherwise authorized by
the Treasury Department.  Debits are prohibited; however, credits are
authorized.

C- General License

A regulatory provision authorizing certain transactions without the filing of an
application with OFAC. Its terms are listed in the appropriate Regulations.  The
concept is similar in meaning to that employed by the U.S. Department of
Commerce.  Transactions consistent with normal banking practice are frequently
permitted by general license.  For questions about general licenses, contact
OFAC at (202)622-2520.

D- Specific License

A permit issued by OFAC on a case-by-case basis to a specific individual or
company allowing an activity which would otherwise be prohibited by the embargo
or sanctions program.  OFAC specific licenses (which may take the form of a
letter or a license) are always issued on U.S. Treasury Department stationery.
Applications for the release of blocked funds must be presented in an original
letter, signed by the applicant, which has been mailed or otherwise physically
delivered to OFAC.  Fax applications are strongly discouraged, and you should
notify your correspondent banks accordingly.  Each license or letter of
authorization bears a control number which can be verified by calling OFAC
Licensing at (202)622-2480.

E- Offset

Exercise of the right to net out mutual indebtedness.  Offset is a prohibited
transfer of frozen assets in situations of blocked property.  When foreign
assets held by an American company (including a bank) are frozen, the assets and
any claims which the American company may have against the foreign owner are
kept separate.

F- Property

Anything of value.  Examples of property include: money, checks, drafts, debts,
obligations, notes, warehouse receipts, bills of sale, evidences of title,
negotiable instruments, trade acceptance, contracts, and anything else real,
personal, or mixed, tangible or intangible, "or interest or interests therein,
present, future, or contingent."  Practically everything that banks do every day
involves "property" within the meaning of the regulations. Likewise, "property
interest" is defined as any interest whatsoever, direct or indirect.

G- Person Subject to the Jurisdiction of the United States

The universe which must comply with OFAC regulations.  It includes American
citizens and permanent resident aliens wherever they are located; individuals
and entities located in the United States (including all foreign branches,
agencies, rep offices, etc.); corporations organized under U.S. law, including
foreign branches; and (under TWEA based sanctions) entities owned or controlled
by any of the above, the most important being foreign-organized subsidiaries of
U.S. corporations.

H- Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons

Individuals and entities which are owned or controlled by, or acting for or on
behalf of, the Governments of target countries or are associated with
international narcotics trafficking or terrorism.  These individuals and
entities are listed on the Treasury Department's Specially Designated Nationals
and Blocked Persons list so that persons subject to the jurisdiction of the
United States will know that they are prohibited from dealing with them and that
they must block all property within their possession or control in which these
individuals and entities have an interest.

I- Census

Comprehensive statistical survey of blocked assets conducted from time to time
by OFAC.  Response is mandated by law.  The information obtained from the survey
is of vital importance to the U.S. Government for foreign policy planning
purposes, to assist Treasury in the preservation of blocked assets, and to
enhance their value for U.S. claimants, including financial institutions.

VI. Bank Responsibility by Country

A- CUBA

Cuban Assets Control Regulations (31 C.F.R. Part 515)

The Cuban Assets Control Regulations, 31 CFR Part 515 (the "Regulations") were
issued by the U.S. Government on 8 July 1963 under the Trading With the Enemy
Act in response to certain hostile actions by the Cuban government.  They are
still in force today and affect all U.S. citizens and permanent residents
wherever they are located, all people and organizations physically in the United
States, and all branches and subsidiaries of U.S. organizations throughout the
world.  The Regulations are administered by the U.S. Treasury Department's
Office of Foreign Assets Control.  The basic goal of the sanctions is to isolate
the Cuban government economically and deprive it of U.S. dollars.  Criminal
penalties for violating the sanctions range up to 10 years in prison, $1,000,000
in corporate fines, and $250,000 in individual fines.  Civil penalties up to
$55,000 per violation may also be imposed.  Please note that the Regulations
require those dealing with Cuba to maintain records and, upon request from the
U.S. Treasury Department, to furnish information regarding such dealings.

o EXPORTING TO CUBA - Except for publications, other informational materials
(such as CDs and works of art), certain donated food, and certain goods licensed
for export or re-export by the U.S. Department of Commerce (such as medicine and
medical supplies, food, and agricultural commodities), no products, technology,
or services may be exported from the United States to Cuba, either directly or
through third countries, such as Canada or Mexico.  This prohibition includes
dealing in or assisting the sale of goods or commodities to or from Cuba, even
if done entirely offshore.  Such brokering is considered to be dealing in
property in which Cuba has an interest.  Provision of consulting services is
also prohibited.  Thus, no U.S. citizen or permanent resident alien, wherever
located, and no foreign subsidiary or branch of a U.S. organization may export
products, technology, or services to Cuba or to any Cuban national, wherever
they may be located, or broker the sale of goods or commodities to or from Cuba
or any Cuban national.

Pursuant to provisions of the Cuban Democracy Act of 1992 (the "CDA") and the
Trade Sanctions and Export Enhancement Act of 2000 (the "TSRA"), the Commerce
Department authorizes the sale and export or re-export of medicine and medical
supplies, food and agricultural commodities to Cuba.  Those interested in
engaging in such exports or reexports must first obtain authorization from the
Commerce Department's Bureau of Export Administration.  All licensed sales may
be financed by cash-in-advance or by third - country banks that are not
Specially Designated Nationals.  Foreign subsidiaries of U.S. banks are
authorized to directly finance licensed sales of agricultural products.  All
U.S. banks may advise or confirm any of the above.

Section 1705(b) of the CDA provides for donations of food to independent non-
governmental organizations or individuals in Cuba.  Shipments of food can be
donated to non-governmental organizations from the U.S. or from third countries
without the need for a license from the U.S. government.  The CDA specifically
provides that payments to Cuba involving telecommunications may be made pursuant
to specific license.  In the mid-1970s, Section 515.559 was added to the
Regulations to allow OFAC to license foreign subsidiaries of U.S. firms to
conduct trade in commodities with Cuba so long as several specific criteria were
met.  Section 1706(a) of the CDA, however, prohibits the issuance of a license
that would have been issued pursuant to Section 515.559, except where a contract
was entered into prior to enactment of the CDA or where the exports at issue are
medicines or medical supplies.

Unless otherwise authorized, no vessel carrying goods or passengers to or from
Cuba or carrying goods in which Cuba or a Cuban national has any interest may
enter a U.S. port.  The prohibition also applies to vessels which enter only to
take on fuel and supplies (bunker), whether from U.S. fuel providers within the
port limits or at offshore points, as well as vessels discharging or loading
merchandise offshore, by lighter or otherwise.  In addition, vessels which enter
a port or place in Cuba to engage in the trade of goods or services are
prohibited from loading or unloading any freight at any place in the U.S. for
180 days.  Prohibited entry does not apply to vessels engaging solely in trade
with Cuba authorized by license or exempt from the Regulations (e.g., vessels
carrying authorized exports of agricultural products, or donations of food to
nongovernmental organizations or individuals).

o IMPORTING CUBAN-ORIGIN GOODS OR SERVICES - Goods or services of Cuban origin
may not be imported into the United States either directly or through third
countries, such as Canada or Mexico.  The only exceptions are: publications,
artwork, or other informational materials.

o TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING PROPERTY IN WHICH CUBA OR A CUBAN NATIONAL HAS AN
INTEREST - In addition to the prohibitions on exports to and imports from Cuba,
the Regulations prohibit any person subject to U.S. jurisdiction from dealing in
any property in which Cuba or a Cuban national has an interest.  Under the
Regulations, "property" includes but is not limited to contracts and services.
For example, unless otherwise authorized, persons subject to U.S. jurisdiction
(including U.S. overseas subsidiaries) may not purchase Cuban cigars in Mexico;
may not sign a contract with a U.K. firm if the contract terms include Cuba-
related provisions (even if those provisions are contingent upon the lifting of
the embargo); and may not provide accounting, marketing, sales, or insurance
services to a Cuban company or to a foreign company with respect to the foreign
company's Cuba- related business.

o SPECIALLY DESIGNATED NATIONALS - The Regulations prohibit buying from or
selling to Cuban nationals whether they are physically located on the island of
Cuba or doing business elsewhere on behalf of Cuba.  Individuals or
organizations who act on behalf of Cuba anywhere in the world are considered by
the U.S. Treasury Department to be "Specially Designated Nationals" of Cuba.  A
non-exhaustive list of their names is published in the Federal Register, an
official publication of the U.S. Government. This list may be obtained by
calling the Office of Foreign Assets Control at 202/622-2490.  The listing,
however, is a partial one and any individual or organization subject to U.S.
jurisdiction engaging in transactions with foreign nationals must take
reasonable care to make certain that such foreign nationals are not acting on
behalf of Cuba.  Individuals and organizations subject to U.S. jurisdiction who
violate the Regulations by transacting business with Specially Designated
Nationals of Cuba are subject to criminal prosecution or civil monetary
penalties.

o ACCOUNTS AND ASSETS - There is a total freeze on Cuban assets, both
governmental and private, and on financial dealings with Cuba; all property of
Cuba, of Cuban nationals, and of Specially Designated Nationals of Cuba in the
possession or control of persons subject to U.S. jurisdiction is "blocked."  Any
property in which Cuba has an interest which comes into the United States or
into the possession or control of persons subject to U.S. jurisdiction is
automatically blocked by operation of law.  Banks receiving unlicensed wire
transfer instructions in which there is a Cuban interest, or any instrument in
which there is a Cuban interest, must freeze the funds on their own books or
block the instrument, regardless of origin or destination.  "Suspense accounts"
are not permitted.  Blocking imposes a complete prohibition against transfers or
transactions of any kind.  No payments, transfers, withdrawals, or other
dealings may take place with regard to blocked property unless authorized by the
Treasury Department.  Banks are permitted to take normal service charges.
Blocked deposits of funds must be interest-bearing.  "Set-offs" are not allowed.

Persons subject to U.S. jurisdiction are required to exercise extreme caution in
order not to knowingly involve themselves in unlicensed transactions in which
Cuba has an interest.  Except as authorized, no bank in the U.S. or overseas
branch or subsidiary of a U.S. bank may advise a letter of credit involving Cuba
nor may it process documents referencing Cuba.  All such "property" must be
blocked as soon as it comes within the bank's possession or control.  All
persons in possession of blocked property are required to register with the
Office of Foreign Assets Control.  Persons subject to U.S. jurisdiction who
engage in any commercial dealings that involve unauthorized trade with Cuba,
either directly or indirectly, risk substantial monetary penalties and criminal
prosecution.

o SENDING GIFTS - Gift parcels may be sent or carried by an authorized traveler
to an individual or to a religious, charitable, or educational organization in
Cuba for the use of the recipient or of the recipient's immediate family (and
not for resale), subject to the following limitations:  the combined total
domestic retail value of all items in the parcel must not exceed $200 (with the
exception of donations of food, which are not so restricted); not more than one
parcel may be sent or given by the same person in the U.S. to the same recipient
in Cuba in any one calendar month; and the content must be limited to food,
vitamins, seeds, medicines, medical supplies and devices, hospital supplies and
equipment, equipment for the handicapped, clothing, personal hygiene items,
veterinary medicines and supplies, fishing equipment and supplies, soap-making
equipment, or certain radio equipment and batteries for such equipment.
Organizations that consolidate and send multiple gift parcels in single
shipments must obtain a validated license from the U.S. Department of Commerce.
Each gift parcel in the single shipment must meet commodity, dollar-value, and
frequency limitations.  If a parcel being shipped or carried to Cuba fails to
meet these standards, it is subject to seizure by the U.S. Government.

o CUBA-RELATED TRAVEL TRANSACTIONS - Only persons whose travel transactions fall
into the categories discussed below may be authorized to spend money related to
travel to, from, or within Cuba.  Persons traveling to Cuba to visit immediate
family members pursuant to a specific license may spend no more than $50 per day
on non-transportation-related expenses in Cuba, and up to an additional $50 per
trip to pay for transportation-related expenses in Cuba.  Persons licensed to
engage in other travel- related transactions in Cuba may spend up to the State
Department Travel Per Diem Allowance for Havana, Cuba for purchases directly
related to travel in Cuba, such as hotel accommodations, meals, local
transportation, and goods personally used by the traveler in Cuba (travelers can
check the current per diem rate on the Internet at
<<http://www.state.gov/www/perdiems/index.html>>).  Most licensed travelers may
also spend additional money for transactions directly related to the activities
for which they received their license.  For example, journalists traveling in
Cuba under the journalism general license (described below) may spend money over
and above the current per diem for extensive local transportation, the hiring of
cable layers, and other costs that are directly related to covering a story in
Cuba.  Purchases of services unrelated to travel or a licensed activity, such as
non-emergency medical services, are prohibited.  The purchase of publications
and other informational materials is not restricted.


WHO CAN GO - The following travelers are authorized, under OFAC general license,
to engage in travel transactions while in Cuba:

- Journalists and supporting broadcasting or technical personnel (regularly
employed in that capacity by a news reporting organization and traveling for
journalistic activities).

- Official government travelers (traveling on official business).

- Members of international organizations of which the United States is also a
member (traveling on official business).

- Travelers who have received specific licenses from OFAC prior to going.

- Full-time professionals whose travel transactions are directly related to
professional research in their professional areas, provided that their research:
(1) is of a noncommercial academic nature, (2) comprises a full work schedule in
Cuba, and (3) has a substantial likelihood of public dissemination.

- Full-time professionals whose travel transactions are directly related to
attendance at professional meetings or conferences in Cuba organized by an
international professional organization, institution, or association that
regularly sponsors such meetings or conferences in other countries.  The
organization, institution, or association sponsoring the meeting or conference
may not be headquartered in the United States unless it is specifically licensed
to sponsor the meeting.  The purpose of the meeting or conference cannot be the
promotion of tourism in Cuba or other commercial activities involving Cuba, or
to foster production of any biotechnological products.

SPECIFIC LICENSES TO VISIT IMMEDIATE FAMILY MEMBERS* IN CUBA - OFAC will issue
specific licenses authorizing travel-related transactions incident to one visit
lasting no more than 14 days to immediate family members who are nationals of
Cuba per three- year period. A "member of the immediate family" is defined as a
spouse, child, grandchild, parent, grandparent, or sibling of the remitter or
that remitter's spouse, as well as any spouse, widow, or widower of any of the
foregoing.  For those who emigrated to the United States from Cuba, and have not
since that time visited a family member in Cuba, the three year period will be
counted from the date they left Cuba.  For all others, the three year period
will be counted from the date they last left Cuba pursuant to the pre-existing
family visit general license, or from the date their family visit specific
license was issued.  Travelers wishing to visit an immediate family member in
Cuba who is authorized to be in Cuba but not a national of Cuba may be granted a
specific license in exigent circumstances provided that the U.S. Interests
Section in Havana concurs in the issuance of such a license.  Applications for
this specific license should be mailed to OFAC's Miami Office at:

     Office of Foreign Assets Control U.S. Department of the Treasury P.O. Box
229008 Miami, FL 33-122-9008

*a "member of the immediate family" is defined as a spouse, child, grandchild,
parent, grandparent, or sibling of the remitter of that remitter's spouse, as
well as any spouse, widow or widower of any of the foregoing.

Status of current family visit specific licenses:  All current family visit
specific licenses are valid only through June 30, 2004, after which they are
revoked.

SPECIFIC LICENSES FOR EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS - Specific licenses may be issued
by OFAC to authorize travel transactions related to certain educational
activities by students or employees at U.S. undergraduate or graduate
institutions. Such licenses must be renewed after a period of one year.  Once an
academic institution has applied for and received such a specific license, the
following categories of travelers affiliated with that academic institution are
authorized to engage in travel- related transactions incident to the following
activities without seeking further authorization from OFAC:

- Undergraduate or graduate students participating in a structured educational
program lasting at least 10 weeks in Cuba as part of a course offered at a U.S.
undergraduate or graduate institution.  Students planning to engage in such
transactions must carry a letter from the licensed institution stating: (1) the
institution's license number, (2) that the student is enrolled in an
undergraduate or a graduate degree program at the institution, and (3) that the
travel is part of an educational program of the institution.

- Persons doing noncommercial Cuba-related academic research in Cuba for the
purpose of qualifying academically as a professional (e.g. research toward a
graduate degree).  Students planning to engage in  such transactions must carry
a letter from the licensed institution stating: (1)  the institution's license
number, (2) that the student is enrolled in a graduate degree program at the
institution, and  (3) that the Cuba research will be accepted for credit toward
that graduate degree;

- Undergraduate or graduate students participating in a formal course of study
lasting at least 10 weeks at a Cuban academic institution, provided the Cuban
study will be accepted for credit toward a degree at the licensed U.S.
institution.  A student planning to engage in such transactions must carry a
letter from the licensed U.S. institution stating: (1) that the individual is a
student currently enrolled in an undergraduate or graduate degree program or a
full-time permanent employee at the institution, (2) that the Cuba-related
travel is part of a structured educational program of that institution that will
last at least 10 weeks, and (3) citing the number of the institution's license.

- Persons regularly employed in a teaching capacity at a licensed U.S.
undergraduate or graduate institution who plan to teach part or all of an
academic program at a Cuban academic institution for at least 10 weeks.  An
individual planning to engage in such transactions must carry a letter from the
licensed institution stating: (1) the U.S. institution's license number, and (2)
that the individual is regularly employed by the licensed institution in a
teaching capacity.

- Cuban scholars teaching or engaging in other scholarly activities at a
licensed college or university in the United States. Licensed institutions may
sponsor such Cuban scholars, including payment of a stipend or salary.  The
Cuban scholar may carry all such stipends or salary payments back to Cuba.

- Full-time employees of a licensed institution organizing or preparing for the
educational activities described above.  An individual engaging in such
transactions must carry a letter from the licensed institution stating: (1) the
institution's license number, and (2) that the individual is regularly employed
by the institution.

Status of current educational institution licenses:  Licensed educational
institutions that have already planned Cuba trips that will not meet the new
requirements issued in June 2004 may still engage in all transactions incident
to such trips provided that the trips and all associated transactions are
completed by August 15, 2004.

SPECIFIC LICENSES FOR RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATIONS - Specific licenses may be issued
by OFAC to religious organizations to authorize individuals affiliated with the
organization to engage in travel transactions under the auspices of the
religious organization.  Applications by religious organizations for such
licenses should include examples of the religious activities to be undertaken in
Cuba.  All individuals traveling pursuant to a religious organization's license
must carry with them a letter from the licensed organization citing the number
of the license and confirming that they are affiliated with the organization and
that they are traveling to Cuba to engage in religious activities under the
auspices of the organization.

OTHER SPECIFIC LICENSES:  Specific licenses may be issued by the Office of
Foreign Assets Control on a case-by-case basis authorizing travel transactions
by the following categories of persons in connection with the following
activities:

- Humanitarian Projects and Support for the Cuban People - (1) Persons traveling
in connection with activities that are intended to provide support for the Cuban
people, such as activities of recognized human rights organizations; (2) Persons
whose travel transactions are directly related to certain humanitarian projects
in or related to Cuba that are designed to directly benefit the Cuban people.
Licenses authorizing transactions for multiple trips over an extended period of
time are available.

- Free-Lance Journalism - Persons with a suitable record of publication who are
traveling to Cuba to do research for a free- lance article.  Licenses
authorizing transactions for multiple trips over an extended period of time are
available for applicants demonstrating a significant record of free-lance
journalism.

the requirements of the relevant general license (described above).  Licenses
authorizing transactions for multiple trips over an extended period of time are

activities that are not authorized pursuant to a religious organization's
specific license.  Licenses authorizing transactions for multiple trips over an
extended period of time are available.

- Public Performances, Athletic or Other Competitions, and Exhibitions - Persons
traveling to participate in a public performance, athletic or other competition
(that does not meet the requirements of the specific license described below),
or exhibition.  The event must be open for attendance, and in relevant
situations participation, by the Cuban public, and all profits from the event
after costs must be donated to an independent nongovernmental organization in
Cuba or a U.S.-based charity, with the objective, to the extent possible, of
promoting people-to-people contacts or otherwise benefiting the Cuban people.

- Amateur or semi-professional athletes or teams traveling to Cuba to
participate in an athletic competition held under the auspices of the relevant
international sports federation. The athletes must have been selected for the
competition by the relevant U.S. sports federation, and the competition must be
one that is open for attendance, and in relevant situations, participation, by
the Cuban public.

- Activities of Private Foundations or Research or Educational Institutions -
Persons traveling to Cuba on behalf of private foundations or research or
educational institutes that have an established interest in international
relations to collect information related to Cuba for noncommercial purposes.

- Licensed Exportation - Persons traveling to Cuba to engage in activities
directly related to marketing, sales negotiation, accompanied delivery, or
servicing of exports of food and agricultural commodities, medical products or
other exports that are consistent with existing Department of Commerce
regulations and guidelines with respect to Cuba, including certain exports
engaged in by U.S.-owned or -controlled foreign firms.

Applying for a specific license:  Except with regard to applications pertaining
to family travel and the provision of travel, carrier and remittance forwarding
services, persons wishing to travel to Cuba under a specific license should send
a letter specifying the details of the proposed travel, including any
accompanying documentation, to the Licensing Division, Office of Foreign Assets
Control, U.S. Department of the Treasury, 1500 Pennsylvania Ave., NW,
Washington, DC 20220. Applications for transactions referenced above should be
submitted directly to OFAC's Miami office.

Provision of travel services: U.S. travel service providers, such as travel
agents, who handle travel arrangements to, from, or within Cuba must hold
special authorizations from the Office of Foreign Assets Control to engage in
such activities. These authorizations are issued based on written applications
from the service providers, subject to appropriate checks by the Treasury
Department. A "traveler" should not use any travel agent or tour operator in the
United States that does not hold valid Treasury authorization. If in doubt about
the status of a company's authorization, travelers should call the Office of
Foreign Assets Control at 305/810-5140. Only carrier service providers that have
been authorized by OFAC may operate direct charter flights between the United
States and Cuba. To find a licensed travel service provider, consult OFAC's
website.

Unauthorized travel-related transactions:  Unless otherwise authorized, any
person subject to U.S. jurisdiction who engages in any travel-related
transaction in Cuba violates the Regulations.

WHAT CAN BE BROUGHT BACK - If U.S. travelers return from Cuba with Cuban origin
goods, such goods, with the exception of informational materials, may be seized
at Customs' discretion.  [Section 515.204 of the Regulations].  There are no
limits on the import or export of informational materials.  [Section 515.206 of
the Regulations].  Such materials are statutorily exempt from regulation under
the embargo and such items as books, films, tapes and CDs may be transported
freely.  However, blank tapes and CDs are not considered informational materials
and may be seized.

VESSELS - All persons on board vessels, including the owner, must be authorized
travelers, as listed above, to engage in travel-related transactions in Cuba. If
you are not an authorized traveler, you may not purchase meals, pay for
transportation, lodging, dockage or mooring fees, cruising fees, visas, entry or
exit fees and you may not bring any Cuban origin goods back to the United
States. Any payment to the Marina Hemingway International Yacht Club is
considered a prohibited payment to a Cuban national and therefore in violation
of the Regulations. Vessel owners are prohibited from carrying passengers to
Cuba because OFAC does not authorize vessel owners as service providers.

EMERGENCIES - In case of emergencies requiring financial transactions such as
emergency repair of vessels or medical treatment, travelers are urged to contact
OFAC at (202)622-2480, to discuss necessary authorizations.

HUMANITARIAN DONATIONS - There is joint OFAC and Commerce Department ("USDOC")
administration over export of gift parcels and humanitarian goods to Cuba to
meet basic human needs.  If an export is licensed by USDOC, OFAC authorizes
certain financial and other transactions related to that export.  [See part 746
of the USDOC's Export Administration Regulations (15 C.F.R. Chapter 7), which
are available on-line at http://w3.access.gpo.gov/bis/ear/ear_data.html, for the
relevant USDOC regulations.]  Please note that travel-related transactions
incident to humanitarian donations must be separately licensed by OFAC.

o EXPORTATION OF ACCOMPANIED BAGGAGE - Authorized travelers to Cuba are limited
to 44 pounds of accompanied baggage per traveler unless a specific license from
OFAC or the Department of Commerce's Bureau of Industry and Security authorizes
a higher amount.

o SENDING OR CARRYING MONEY TO CUBA - U.S. persons aged 18 or older may send to
members of the remitter's immediate family in Cuba or to a Cuban national in a
third country "family" cash remittances of up to $300 per household in any
consecutive three- month period, provided that no member of the household is a
prohibited official of the Government of Cuba [such officials include Ministers
and Vice-ministers, members of the Council of State, and the Council of
Ministers; members and employees of the National Assembly of People's Power;
members of any provincial assembly; local sector chiefs of the Committees for
the Defense of the Revolution; Director Generals and sub-Director Generals and
higher of all Cuban ministries and state agencies; employees of the Ministry of
the Interior (MININT); employees of the Ministry of Defense (MINFAR);
secretaries and first secretaries of the Confederation of Labor of Cuba (CTC)
and its component unions; chief editors, editors and deputy editors of Cuban
state- run media organizations and programs, including newspapers, television,
and radio; and members and employees of the Supreme Court (Tribuno Supremo
Nacional)] or a prohibited member of the Cuban Communist Party (such members
include members of the Politburo; the Central Committee; Department Heads of the
Central Committee; employees of the Central Committee; and secretary and first
secretary of the provincial Party central committees).  No more than a combined
total of $300 of family remittances may be sent by a remitter to any one
household in any consecutive three- month period, regardless of the number of
members of the remitter's immediate family residing in that household.  A
licensed traveler may carry up to $300 of his own family remittances to Cuba.

U.S. persons also may send up to $1,000 per payee on a one-time basis as an
"emigration-related" remittance to a Cuban national to enable the payee to
emigrate from Cuba to the United States.  Specifically, up to $500 may be
remitted to a Cuban national prior to the payee's receipt of a valid U.S. visa
or other U.S. immigration document, and up to $500 may be remitted to the Cuban
national after the payee receives a valid U.S. visa or other U.S. immigration
document.  A licensed traveler may only carry immigration remittances to Cuba if
the visa has already been issued.

Remittances must be transferred through an OFAC-licensed depository institution
or remittance forwarder.  Those OFAC- licensed entities originating transfers on
behalf of non- aggregating customers must obtain an affidavit from the remitter
certifying that each family remittance does not exceed $300 in any consecutive
three month period and that each emigration- related remittance meets the
requirements of the Regulations.  Remitters can expect to have their identity,
date of birth, address, and telephone number verified.

Specific licenses may be issued on a case-by-case basis authorizing remittances:

- to independent nongovernmental organizations in Cuba;

- to households of Cuban nationals living outside of Cuba in excess of $300 per
quarter from blocked accounts; or

- to individuals in Cuba to facilitate their non-immigrant travel to the United
States under circumstances where humanitarian need is demonstrated, including
illness or medical emergency.

o FAIR BUSINESS PRACTICES - Anyone authorized by the U.S. Department of the
Treasury to provide Cuban travel services or services in connection with sending
money to Cuba is prohibited from participating in discriminatory practices of
the Cuban government against individuals or particular classes of travelers. The
assessment of consular fees by the Cuban government, which are applicable
worldwide, is not considered to be a discriminatory practice.  However,
requiring the purchase of services not desired by the traveler is not permitted.
Persons wishing to provide information on such activities should call 305/810-
5170.  All information regarding arbitrary fees, payments for unauthorized
purposes, or other possible violations furnished to the U.S. Treasury Department
will be handled confidentially.

o ESTATES AND SAFE DEPOSIT BOXES - An estate becomes blocked whenever a Cuban
national is an heir or is the deceased; money from a life insurance policy is
blocked whenever the deceased is a Cuban resident.  The heir of a person who
died in Cuba, or the beneficiary of a life insurance policy of a person who died
in Cuba, may apply for a license from the Office of Foreign Assets Control to
unblock the estate or insurance proceeds.  Persons administering or interested
in a blocked estate should contact the Office of Foreign Assets Control at
202/622-2480 for more information.  A safe-deposit box is blocked whenever a
Cuban has an interest in the property contained in the box.  Access to a blocked
safe deposit box for inventory purposes may be granted under certain conditions,
but the contents of the box remain blocked and may not be removed without the
permission of the Office of Foreign Assets Control.  Authorized remittances may
be made from blocked estates.

o PAYMENTS FOR OVERFLIGHTS - Private and commercial aviators must obtain a
specific license authorizing payments for overflight charges to Cuba.  Banks
will ask to see the originals of such licenses before executing transfers and
keep a copy for their files.

B- NORTH KOREA

Foreign Assets Control Regulations (31 C.F.R. Part 500)

INTRODUCTION - On June 26, 2008 President Bush signed Proclamation 8271,
terminating the application of the Trading With the Enemy Act ("TWEA") with
respect to North Korea, effective June 27, 2008.  The Foreign Assets Control
Regulations, to the extent they were promulgated under TWEA authority, are
therefore no longer in force with respect to North Korea.  The import and
transfer restrictions found at 31 C.F.R. 500.586(b)(2) and (b)(3) were
promulgated under other authorities and remain in force.

Also on June 26, 2008, the President issued, under the authority of the
International Emergency Economic Powers Act, Executive Order 13466, continuing
two of the TWEA-based restrictions against North Korea.  OFAC will issue
regulations implementing the Executive order.

Criminal fines for violating the E.O. range, upon conviction, up to $1,000,000;
individuals may also face imprisonment up to 20 years.  In addition, civil
penalties of up to $250,000 or twice the amount of the underlying transaction
may be imposed administratively for each violation.

This fact sheet is a broad summary of the sanctions currently in place.

ACCOUNTS, ASSETS AND FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS -  Property and interests in
property that were blocked as of June 16, 2000, and that remained blocked
immediately prior to June 26, 2008, remain blocked.

TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING NORTH KOREAN VESSELS - U.S. persons are prohibited from
registering vessels in North Korea, obtaining authorization for a vessel to fly
the North Korean flag, and owning, leasing, operating, or insuring any vessel
flagged by North Korea.

BUYING FROM NORTH KOREA - Goods of North Korean origin may not be imported into
the United States either directly or through third countries, without prior
notification to and approval of the Office of Foreign Assets Control. Importers
must provide OFAC with written information as to whether the products to be
imported were produced by (a) a foreign person designated by the Secretary of
State as having engaged in missile technology proliferation activities; (b) an
activity of the North Korean Government relating to the development or
production of any missile equipment or technology; or (c) an activity of the
North Korean Government affecting the development or production of electronics,
space systems or equipment, and military aircraft. In addition to the
information just described, importers seeking an approval letter from OFAC must
provide their name, address, telephone, fax, and e-mail addresses; a description
of the product to be imported, including quantity and cost; the name and address
of the producer of the product; the name of the location where the product was
produced; and the name and address of the North Korean exporter.  Requests for
import review must be submitted by mail to North Korea Unit, Office of Foreign
Assets Control, U.S. Department of the Treasury, 1500 Pennsylvania Ave., NW,
Annex, Washington, DC 20220.  After reviewing the information, OFAC will issue a
letter indicating the results of the review to the person seeking to import the
product. U.S. depository institutions handling letters of credit or documentary
collections involving imports from North Korea must obtain a copy of OFAC's
approval letter from the importer before proceeding with such transactions.  The
letter must also be provided to the U.S. Customs Service before imports from
North Korea will be allowed into the United States.

TRANSFERS FROM NORTH KOREA - U.S. persons are prohibited from engaging in
transfers from the Government of North Korea either (a) that constitute a
donation to a U.S. person or (b) with respect to which the U.S. person knows or
has reasonable cause to believe the transfer poses a risk of furthering
terrorist acts in the United States.

TRAVELING TO NORTH KOREA - U.S. passports are valid for travel to North Korea
and individuals do not need U.S. Government permission to travel there.  U.S.
persons may also provide travel services for travel to North Korea.

C- LIBYA

Libyan Sanctions Regulations (31 C.F.R. Part 550)

On September 20, 2004, the President signed an executive order (the E.O.)
terminating the national emergency declared in Executive Order 12543 of January
7, 1986, with respect to the policies and actions of the Government of Libya and
revoking that Order, Executive Order 12544 of January 8, 1986, and Executive
Order 12801 of April 15, 1992, all of which imposed sanctions against Libya in
response to the national emergency.  This E.O. also terminates Executive Order
12538 of November 15, 1985, which blocked the import into the United States of
petroleum products refined in Libya.  The E.O. is effective at 12:01 a.m.
eastern daylight time on September 21, 2004. As of that time, the prohibitions
of the Libyan Sanctions Regulations, 31 CFR Part 550 (the "LSR"), will be
lifted, and all property and interests in property blocked under the LSR will be
unblocked.  However, termination of the national emergency will not affect any
action taken or proceeding pending not finally concluded or determined as of the
effective date of this E.O., any action or proceeding based on any act committed
prior to such date, or any rights or duties that matured or penalties that were
incurred prior to such date.  The text of E.O. follows:

EXECUTIVE ORDER

- - - - - -

TERMINATION OF EMERGENCY DECLARED IN EXECUTIVE ORDER 12543 WITH RESPECT TO THE
POLICIES AND ACTIONS OF THE GOVERNMENT OF LIBYA AND REVOCATION OF RELATED
EXECUTIVE ORDERS

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of
the United States of America, including the International Emergency Economic
Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.) (IEEPA), the National Emergencies Act (50
U.S.C. 1601 et seq.) (NEA), section 5 of the United Nations Participation Act,
as amended (22 U.S.C. 287c) (UNPA), sections 504 and 505 of the International
Security and Development Cooperation Act (22 U.S.C. 2349aa-8 and 2349aa-9),
section 40106 of title 49, United States Code, and section 301 of title 3,
United States Code,

I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, find that the
situation that gave rise to the declaration of a national emergency in Executive
Order 12543 of January 7, 1986, with respect to the policies and actions of the
Government of Libya, and that led to the steps taken in that order and in
Executive Order 12544 of January 8, 1986, and Executive Order 12801 of April 15,
1992, has been significantly altered by Libya's commitments and actions to
eliminate its weapons of mass destruction programs, its Missile Technology
Control Regime (MTCR) -class missiles, and by other developments.  Accordingly,
I hereby terminate the national emergency declared in Executive Order 12543, and
revoke that Executive Order, Executive Order 12544, and Executive Order 12801. I
also hereby revoke Executive Order 12538 of November 15, 1985, and further
order:

Section 1.  Pursuant to section 202(a) of the NEA (50 U.S.C. 1622(a)),
termination of the national emergency declared in Executive Order 12543 with
respect to the policies and actions of the Government of Libya shall not affect
any action taken or proceeding pending not finally concluded or determined as of
the effective date of this order, any action or proceeding based on any act
committed prior to such date, or any rights or duties that matured or penalties
that were incurred prior to such date.

Sec. 2.  This order is not intended to, and does not, create any right or
benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity by any party
against the United States, its departments, agencies, instrumentalities, or
entities its officers or employees, or any other person.

Sec. 3.  (a) This order is effective at 12:01 a.m. eastern daylight time on
September 21, 2004. (b) This order shall be transmitted to the Congress and
published in the Federal Register.

D- IRAQ

Executive Order 13350 and E.O.s 13315 and 13303

INTRODUCTION - On August 2, 1990, upon Iraqs invasion of Kuwait, President
George H.W. Bush issued Executive Order No. 12722 declaring a national emergency
with respect to Iraq. The International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C.
1701), the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601), and section 301 of title 3
of the U.S. Code, imposed economic sanctions, including a complete trade
embargo, against Iraq. In keeping with United Nations Security Council
Resolution 661 of August 6, 1990 and the United Nations Participation Act (22
U.S.C. 287c), the President also issued Executive Order 12724 on August 9, 1990,
which imposed additional restrictions. Similar sanctions were imposed on Kuwait
to ensure that no benefit from the United States flowed to the Government of
Iraq in military-occupied Kuwait.

The Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC),following the
United Nations Security Council's adoption of Resolution 1483 which
substantially lifted the multilateral sanctions with respect to Iraq, issued a
General License, which was published in the Regulations as section 575.533.
Transactions arising after May 23, 2003 are permitted with most state bodies,
corporations or agencies of the former Iraqi regime (see the text of the amended
general license below). However, property that was blocked as of May 23, 2003
remains blocked. Effective August 29, 2003, President George W. Bush issued
Executive Order 13315, blocking property of the former Iraqi regime, its senior
officials and their family members. On March 16, 2004, OFAC issued General
License No. 1 pursuant to Executive Order 13315, to allow transactions occurring
after May 23, 2003 with most state bodies, corporations or agencies of the
former Iraqi regime (see the text of this General License after the Executive
Order below). However, assets of the parastatals that were blocked as of May 23,
2003, must remain blocked.

On July 30, 2004, the President issued a new Executive Order 13350 effectively
lifting the sanctions against Iraq and expanding the authorities of E.O. 13315
with regard to the former Iraqi regime, including an Annex containing the names
of parties blocked under this order. These names have been incorporated into
OFAC's SDN list.

ORDERLY RECONSTRUCTION OF IRAQ - On May 22, 2003, President Bush issued
Executive Order 13303, protecting the Development Fund of Iraq and the marketing
and sale of Iraqi petroleum and petroleum products to assure the orderly
reconstruction of Iraq, the restoration of peace and security in the country,
and the development of political, administrative, and economic institutions
there. It provides immunity from attachment or other judicial process against
the Fund or against Iraqi petroleum and petroleum products, and "interests
therein, and proceeds, obligations, or any financial instruments of any nature
whatsoever," arising from or related to the sale or marketing of Iraqi petroleum
or petroleum products.

EXPORTING TO IRAQ - Effective July 30, 2004, exports or reexports to Iraq must
be licensed or otherwise authorized by the Department of Commerce. All OFAC
licenses, issued prior to July 30, 2004, for the exportation or reexportation of
goods, software or technology to Iraq remain valid until the expiration date
stated in the license, or if no expiration date is provided in the license,
until July 30, 2005.

IRAQI CULTURAL PROPERTY - Section 575.533 effective May 23, 2003 prohibits
transactions with respect to Iraqi cultural property or other items of
archaeological, historical, cultural, rare scientific, and religious importance
illegally removed from Iraq since August 6, 1990. Questions concerning whether
Iraqi cultural property are subject to this prohibition should be directed to:
Cultural Property Office, U.S. Department of State, tel: 202-619-6612, fax: 202-
260- 4893, or http://www.exchanges.state.gov/culprop.html

FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS - All financial transactions with Iraq are allowed except
for those involving individuals and entities appearing on OFAC's SDN list. This
includes the opening of correspondent accounts for Iraqi financial institutions.

PENALTIES - Criminal penalties for violating the Iraqi Sanctions Regulations
range up to 12 years in jail and $1,000,000 in fines. In addition, civil
penalties of up to $325,000 per violation may be imposed administratively.

Criminal penalties for violating the Executive Order 13350, 13315 and 13303
range up to 20 years in prison, $500,000 in corporate fines and $250,000 in
individual fines. In addition, civil penalties of up to $50,000 per violation
may be imposed administratively.

If you have information regarding possible violations of any of the regulations,
please call the Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control at
202/622-2430. Your call will be handled confidentially.

                     EXECUTIVE ORDER 13550

                         - - - - - - -

         TERMINATION OF EMERGENCY DECLARED IN EXECUTIVE ORDER 12722 WITH RESPECT  
TO IRAQ AND MODIFICATION OF EXECUTIVE ORDER 13290, EXECUTIVE ORDER  
13303, AND EXECUTIVE ORDER 13315


By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and laws of the
United States of America, including the International Emergency Economic Powers
Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.)(IEEPA), the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C.
1601 et seq.)(NEA), section 5 of the United Nations Participation Act, as
amended (22 U.S.C. 287c)(UNPA), and section 301 of title 3, United States Code,
I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, have determined
that the situation that gave rise to the declaration of a national emergency
with respect to Iraq in Executive Order 12722 of August 2, 1990, has been
significantly altered by the removal of the regime of Saddam Hussein and other
developments.  I hereby terminate the national emergency declared in Executive
Order 12722, revoke that Executive Order and Executive Order 12724 of August 9,
1990, Executive Order 12734 of November 14, 1990, Executive Order 12743 of
January 18, 1991, Executive Order 12751 of February 14, 1991, and Executive
Order 12817 of October 21, 1992, that are based on that national emergency.  I
hereby amend Executive Order 13290 of March 20, 2003, so that the authorities
therein remain in effect based on the national emergency I declared in Executive
Order 13303 of May 22, 2003, and expanded in Executive Order 13315 of August 28,
2003.  At the same time, and in order to take additional steps to deal with the
national emergency that I declared in Executive Order 13303, and expanded in
Executive Order 13315, with respect to the unusual and extraordinary threat to
the national security and foreign policy of the United States posed by obstacles
to the orderly reconstruction of Iraq, the restoration and maintenance of peace
and security in that country, and the development of political, administrative
and economic institutions in Iraq, I hereby order:

Section 1.  Pursuant to section 202(a) of the NEA (50 U.S.C. 1622(a)),
termination of the national emergency declared in Executive Order 12722 shall
not affect any action taken or proceeding pending but not finally concluded or
determined as of the effective date of this order, any action or proceeding
based on any act committed prior to such date, or any rights or duties that
matured or penalties that were incurred prior to such date.  Pursuant to section
207(a) of IEEPA (50 U.S.C. 1706(a)), and subject to such regulations, orders,
directives, or licenses as may be issued pursuant to this order, I hereby
determine that the continuation of prohibitions with regard to transactions
involving property blocked pursuant to Executive Orders 12722 or 12724 that
continues to be blocked as of the effective date of this order is necessary on
account of claims involving Iraq.

Sec. 2.  The Annex to Executive Order 13315 is replaced and superseded in its
entirety by the Annex to this order.

Sec. 3.  I hereby amend Executive Order 13290 by removing "the national
emergency declared in Executive Order 12722 of August 2, 1990" and replacing it
with "the national emergency declared in Executive Order 13303 of March 20,
2003, and expanded in Executive Order 13315 of August 28, 2003".

Sec. 4.  Unless licensed or otherwise authorized pursuant to this order or
otherwise consistent with U.S. law, the trade in or transfer of ownership or
possession of Iraqi cultural property or other items of archeological,
historical, cultural, rare scientific, and religious importance that were
illegally removed, or for which a reasonable suspicion exists that they were
illegally removed, from the Iraq National Museum, the National Library, and
other locations in Iraq since August 6, 1990, is prohibited.

Sec. 5.  I hereby determine that the making of donations of the type specified
in section 203(b)(2) of IEEPA (50 U.S.C. 1702(b)(2)) by or to persons determined
to be subject to the sanctions imposed by Executive Order 13315 or by this order
would seriously impair my ability to deal with the national emergency declared
in Executive Order 13303, and expanded by Executive Order 13315, or would
endanger the Armed Forces of the United States that are engaged in hostilities,
and I hereby prohibit such donations as provided in section 1 of Executive Order
13315 as amended by this order.

Sec. 6.  For those persons listed in the Annex to this order or determined to be
subject to Executive Order 13315 or this order who might have a constitutional
presence in the United States, I find that because of the ability to transfer
funds or other assets instantaneously, prior notice to such persons of measures
to be taken pursuant to this order would render these measures ineffectual.  I
therefore determine that for these measures to be effective in addressing the
national emergency declared in Executive Order 13303, and expanded by Executive
Order 13315, there need be no prior notice of a listing or determination made
pursuant to Executive Order 13315 or this order.

Sec. 7.  The Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of
State, is hereby authorized to take such actions, including the promulgation of
rules and regulations, and to employ all powers granted to the President by
IEEPA and UNPA as may be necessary to carry out the purposes of this order.  The
Secretary of the Treasury may redelegate any of these functions to other
officers and agencies of the United States Government consistent with applicable
law.  All agencies of the United States Government are hereby directed to take
all appropriate measures within their authority to carry out the provisions of
this order.

Sec. 8.  The Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of
State, is authorized to determine subsequent to the issuance of the order, that
circumstances no longer warrant the inclusion of a person in the Annex to this
order and that such person is therefore no longer covered within the scope of
the order.

Sec. 9.  This order is not intended to, and does not, create any right or
benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity by any party
against the United States, its departments, agencies, instrumentalities, or
entities, officers or employees, or any other person.

Sec. 10.  This order is effective at 12:01 a.m. eastern daylight time on July
30, 2004.  This order shall be transmitted to the Congress and published in the
Federal Register.

Those holding specific licenses issued by the Treasury Department for
exports or reexports to Iraq must comply with the recordkeeping
requirements found in 15 CFR 746.3 of the Export Administration
Regulations.

(iii)  Items licensed by the Treasury Department for exportation or
reexportation to Iraq may not be transferred within Iraq to a new end-user

EXECUTIVE ORDER 13315: BLOCKING PROPERTY OF THE FORMER IRAQI REGIME, ITS SENIOR
OFFICIALS AND THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS, AND TAKING CERTAIN OTHER ACTIONS

"By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of
the United States of America, including the International Emergency Economic
Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.) (IEEPA), the National Emergencies Act (50
U.S.C. 1601 et seq.), section 5 of the United Nations Participation Act, as
amended (22 U.S.C. 287c) (UNPA), and section 301 of title 3, United States Code,
in view of United Nations Security Council Resolution 1483 of May 22, 2003, and
in order to take additional steps with respect to the situation in Iraq,

I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, hereby expand the
scope of the national emergency declared in Executive Order 13303 of May 22,
2003, to address the unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security
and foreign policy of the United States posed by obstacles to the orderly
reconstruction of Iraq, the restoration and maintenance of peace and security in
that country, and the development of political, administrative, and economic
institutions in Iraq. I find that the removal of Iraqi property from that
country by certain senior officials of the former Iraqi regime and their
immediate family members constitutes one of these obstacles. I further determine
that the United States is engaged in armed hostilities and that it is in the
interest of the United States to confiscate certain additional property of the
former Iraqi regime, certain senior officials of the former regime, immediate
family members of those officials, and controlled entities. I intend that such
property, after all right, title, and interest in it has vested in the
Department of the Treasury, shall be transferred to the Development Fund for
Iraq. Such property shall be used to meet the humanitarian needs of the Iraqi
people, for the economic reconstruction and repair of Iraq's infrastructure, for
the continued disarmament of Iraq, for the costs of Iraqi civilian
administration, and for other purposes benefiting the Iraqi people. I determine
that such use would be in the interest of and for the benefit of the United
States. I hereby order:

Section 1. Except to the extent provided in section 203(b)(1), (3), and (4) of
IEEPA (50 U.S.C. 1702(b)(1), (3), and (4)), or regulations, orders, directives,
or licenses that may be issued pursuant to this order, and notwithstanding any
contract entered into or any license or permit granted prior to the effective
date of this order, all property and interests in property of the former Iraqi
regime or its state bodies, corporations, or agencies, or of the following
persons, that are in the United States, that hereafter come within the United
States, or that are or hereafter come within the possession or control of United
States persons, are blocked and may not be transferred, paid, exported,
withdrawn, or otherwise dealt in:

(a) the persons listed in the Annex to this order; and (b) persons determined by
the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of State,  (i)
to be senior officials of the former Iraqi regime or their immediate family
members; or  (ii)to be owned or controlled by, or acting or purporting to act
for or on behalf of, directly or indirectly, any of the persons listed in the
Annex to this order or determined to be subject to this order.

Sec. 2. The Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of
State, is authorized to confiscate property that is blocked pursuant to section
1 of this order and that he determines, in consultation with the Secretary of
State, to belong to a person, organization, or country that has planned,
authorized, aided, or engaged in armed hostilities against the United States.
All right, title, and interest in any property so confiscated shall vest in the
Department of the Treasury. Such vested property shall promptly be transferred
to the Development Fund for Iraq.

Sec. 3. (a) Any transaction by a United States person or within the United
States that evades or avoids, has the purpose of evading or avoiding, or
attempts to violate any of the prohibitions set forth in this order is
prohibited.  (b) Any conspiracy formed to violate any of the prohibitions set
forth in this order is prohibited.

Sec. 4. For purposes of this order: (a) the term 'person' means an individual or
entity; (b) the term 'entity' means a partnership, association, trust, joint
venture, corporation, group, subgroup, or other organization; (c) the term
'United States person' means any United States citizen, permanent resident
alien, entity organized under the laws of the United States or any jurisdiction
within the United States (including foreign branches), or any person in the
United States; (d) the term 'former Iraqi regime' means the Saddam Hussein
regime that governed Iraq until on or about May 1, 2003; and  (e) the term
'coalition authority' means the Coalition Provisional Authority under the
direction of its Administrator, and the military forces of the United States,
the United Kingdom, and their coalition partners present in Iraq under the
command or operational control of the Commander of United States Central
Command; and  (f) the term 'Development Fund for Iraq' means the fund
established on or about May 22, 2003, on the books of the Central Bank of Iraq,
by the Administrator of the Coalition Provisional Authority responsible for the
temporary governance of Iraq and all accounts held for the fund or for the
Central Bank of Iraq in the name of the fund.

Sec. 5. I hereby determine that the making of donations of the type specified in
section 203(b)(2) of IEEPA (50 U.S.C. 1702(b)(2)) by or to person determined to
be subject to the sanctions imposed under this order would seriously impair my
ability to deal with the national emergency declared in Executive Order 13303
and expanded in scope in this order and would endanger Armed Forces of the
United States that are engaged in hostilities, and I hereby prohibit such
donations as provided by section 1 of this order.

Sec. 6. For those persons listed in the Annex to this order or determined to be
subject to this order who might have a constitutional presence in the United
States, I find that because of the ability to transfer funds or other assets
instantaneously, prior notice to such persons of measures to be taken pursuant
to this order would render these measures ineffectual. I therefore determine
that for these measures to be effective in addressing the national emergency
declared in Executive Order 13303 and expanded in scope in this order, there
need be no prior notice of a listing or determination made pursuant to section 1
of this order.

Sec. 7. The Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of
State, is hereby authorized to take such actions, including the promulgation of
rules and regulations, and to employ all powers granted to the President by
IEEPA and UNPA as may be necessary to carry out the purposes of this order. The
Secretary of the Treasury may redelegate any of these functions to other
officers and agencies of the United States Government, consistent with
applicable law. All agencies of the United States Government are hereby directed
to take all appropriate measures within their authority to carry out the
provisions of this order.

Sec. 8. The Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of
State, is authorized to determine, subsequent to the issuance of this order,
that circumstances no longer warrant inclusion of a person in the Annex to this
order and that such person is therefore no longer covered within the scope of
the order.

Sec. 9. Nothing in this order is intended to affect the continued effectiveness
of any rules, regulations, orders, licenses, or other forms of administrative
action issued, taken, or continued in effect heretofore or hereafter under 31
C.F.R. chapter V, except as expressly terminated, modified, or suspended by or
pursuant to this order.

Sec. 10. This order shall not apply to such property as is or may come under the
control of the coalition authority in Iraq. Nothing in this order is intended to
affect dispositions of such property or other determinations by the coalition
authority.

Sec. 11. This order is not intended to, and does not, create any right or
benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity by any party
against the United States, its departments, agencies, instrumentalities, or
entities, officers or employees, or any other person.

Sec. 12. This order is effective on 12:01 a.m. eastern day light time on August
29, 2003.

Sec. 13.This order shall be transmitted to the Congress and published in the
Federal Register."

Assets Control. Such requirements include the Export Administration
Regulations (15 CFR parts 730 through 799) administered by the Bureau of

OFFICE OF FOREIGN ASSETS CONTROL By R. Richard Newcomb, Director"

-------------

PARASTATAL ENTITIES OF IRAQ

This list has been prepared to assist member states of the United Nations in
identifying state bodies, corporations or agencies of the former Government of
Iraq as required under paragraph 23(a) of United Nations Security Council
Resolution (UNSCR) 1483.  It is a partial listing only and is not exhaustive.
The provisions of UNSCR 1483 cover additional individuals and entities that are
not listed.

OFAC concludes that these entities are included in the term "Government of Iraq"
as that term is used in the Iraqi Sanctions Regulations (ISR), 31 CFR 575.306.
Under the ISR and a recent general license (31 CFR 575.533), assets of these
entities that were blocked on or before May 23, 2003, are to remain blocked.
However, transactions with these parastatals arising after May 23, 2003, are
permitted subject to the limitations set out in 31 CFR 575.533.

OFAC concludes that these entities are also state bodies, corporations or
agencies of the former Iraqi regime as described in Executive Order 13315 of
August 29, 2003.  Although property of such entities is subject to blocking
pursuant to that Executive Order, OFAC has issued a General License permitting
most transactions on or after August 29, 2003.

In other words, the assets of the listed parastatals that have been blocked as
of May 23, 2003, must remain blocked.  Transactions by U.S. persons with these
parastatals occurring after May 23, 2003, are authorized.

It is important to note the entity on this list identified with an asterisk (*),
Iraqi State Enterprise for Foodstuffs Trading, has been previously identified as
a Specially Designated National (SDN) of Iraq.  The general licenses mentioned
above do not apply to SDNs. Consequently, all transactions (whether before or
after May 23, 2003) with the Iraqi State Enterprise for Foodstuffs Trading would
remain prohibited, unless specifically licensed by OFAC.  As with other entities
on the SDN list, U.S. persons must block any assets of the Iraqi State
Enterprise for Foodstuffs Trading which might come under their control.  U.S.
persons would, therefore, continue to be expected to interdict current live
transactions of the Iraqi State Enterprise for Foodstuffs Trading, as they would
with other SDNs.

An overview of Regulations involving Sanctions against Iran

Iranian Transactions Regulations (31 C.F.R. Part 560)

As a result of Iran's support for international terrorism and its aggressive
actions against non-belligerent shipping in the Persian Gulf, President Reagan,
on October 29, 1987, issued Executive Order 12613 imposing a new import embargo
on Iranian-origin goods and services. Section 505 of the International Security
and Development Cooperation Act of 1985 ("ISDCA") was utilized as the statutory
authority for the embargo which gave rise to the Iranian Transactions
Regulations, Title 31, Part 560 of the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (the
"ITR").

Effective March 16, 1995, as a result of Iranian sponsorship of international
terrorism and Iran's active pursuit of weapons of mass destruction, President
Clinton issued Executive Order 12957 prohibiting U.S. involvement with petroleum
development in Iran. On May 6, 1995, he signed Executive Order 12959, pursuant
to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act ("IEEPA") as well as the
ISDCA, substantially tightening sanctions against Iran.

On August 19, 1997, the President signed Executive Order 13059 clarifying
Executive Orders 12957 and 12959 and confirming that virtually all trade and
investment activities with Iran by U.S. persons, wherever located, are
prohibited.

On March 17, 2000, the Secretary of State announced that sanctions against Iran
would be eased to allow U.S. persons to purchase and import carpets and food
products such as dried fruits, nuts, and caviar from Iran. This change was
implemented through amendments to the ITR at the end of April 2000.

Effective November 10, 2008, the authorization for "U-turn" transfers involving
Iran was revoked.  As of that date, U.S. depository institutions are no longer
authorized to process transfers involving Iran that originate and end with
non-Iranian foreign banks.  Details concerning the revocation of the U-turn
authorization and a description of currently permissible funds transfers can be
found in the Financial Dealings with Iran section of this document.

Criminal penalties for violations of the Iranian Transactions Regulations may
result in a fine up to $1,000,000, and natural persons may be imprisoned for up
to 20 years. Civil penalties, which are not to exceed the greater of $250,000 or
an amount that is twice the amount of the transaction that is the basis of the
violation with respect to which the penalty is imposed may also be imposed
administratively.

This fact sheet provides general information about the Iranian sanctions program
under the Iranian Transactions Regulations, and incorporates sanctions imposed
by Executive Orders 12957, 12959, and 13059. The sanctions are administered by
the U.S. Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC").

o IMPORTS FROM IRAN - Goods or services of Iranian origin may not be imported
into the United States, either directly or through third countries, with the
following exceptions: 

a)	Gifts valued at $100 or less;

b)	Information or informational materials;

c)	Foodstuffs intended for human consumption that are classified under
chapters 2-23 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States; and

d)	Carpets and other textile floor coverings and carpets used as wall
hangings that are classified under chapter 57 or heading 9706.00.0060 of the
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States.

U.S. persons are prohibited from providing financing for prohibited import
transactions. There are restrictions on letter of credit transactions involving
the Government of Iran (see FINANCIAL DEALINGS WITH IRAN, FINANCING PURCHASES
FROM IRAN OR ITS GOVERNMENT, and FINANCING IRANIAN-ORIGIN FOODSTUFFS AND CARPETS
OTHER THAN PURCHASES FROM IRAN OR ITS GOVERNMENT below).

o EXPORTS TO IRAN - In general, unless licensed by OFAC, goods, technology
(including technical data or other information subject to Export Administration
Regulations), or services may not be exported, reexported, sold or supplied,
directly or indirectly, from the United States or by a U.S. person, wherever
located, to Iran or the Government of Iran. The ban on providing services
includes any brokering function from the United States or by U.S. persons,
wherever located. For example, a U.S. person, wherever located, or any person
acting within the United States, may not broker offshore transactions that
benefit Iran or the Government of Iran, including sales of foreign goods or
arranging for third-country financing or guarantees.

In general, a person may not export from the U.S. any goods, technology or
services, if that person knows or has reason to know such items are intended
specifically for supply, transshipment or reexportation to Iran. Further, such
exportation is prohibited if the exporter knows or has reason to know the U.S.
items are intended specifically for use in the production of, for commingling
with, or for incorporation into goods, technology or services to be directly or
indirectly supplied, transshipped or reexported exclusively or predominately to
Iran or the Government of Iran. A narrow exception is created for the
exportation from the United States or by U.S. persons wherever located of
low-level goods or technology to third countries for incorporation or
substantial transformation into foreign-made end products, provided the U.S.
content is insubstantial, as defined in the regulations, and certain other
conditions are met.

Donations of articles intended to relieve human suffering (such as food,
clothing, and medicine), gifts valued at $100 or less, licensed exports of
agricultural commodities, medicine, and medical devices, and trade in
"informational materials" are permitted. "Informational materials" are defined
to include publications, films, posters, phonograph records, photographs,
microfilms, microfiche, tapes, compact disks, CD ROMs, artworks, and news wire
feeds, although certain Commerce Department restrictions still apply to some of
those materials. To be considered informational material, artworks must be
classified under chapter subheadings 9701, 9702, or 9703 of the Harmonized
Tariff Schedule of the United States.

With certain exceptions, foreign persons who are not U.S. persons are prohibited
from reexporting sensitive U.S.-origin goods, technology or services to Iran or
the Government of Iran. Foreign persons involved in such reexports may be placed
on the U.S. Commerce Department's "Export Denial Orders" list.

U.S. persons may not approve, finance, facilitate or guarantee any transaction
by a foreign person where that transaction by a foreign person would be
prohibited if performed by a U.S. person or from the United States.

o DEALING IN IRANIAN-ORIGIN GOODS OR SERVICES - Except as authorized by
amendments to the ITR relating to foodstuffs and carpets, which were issued at
the end of April 2000, U.S. persons, including foreign branches of U.S.
depository institutions and trading companies, are prohibited from engaging in
any transactions, including purchase, sale, transportation, swap, financing, or
brokering transactions related to goods or services of Iranian origin or goods
or services owned or controlled by the Government of Iran.

Services provided in the United States by an Iranian national already resident
in the United States are not considered services of Iranian origin.

These prohibitions apply to transactions by United States persons in locations
outside the United States with respect to goods or services which the United
States person knows, or has reason to know, are of Iranian origin or are owned
or controlled by the Government of Iran. U.S. persons may not import such goods
or services into or export them from foreign locations. A U.S. person may,
however, engage in transactions in third countries necessary to sell, dispose
of, store, or maintain goods located in a third country which were legally
acquired by that U.S. person prior to May 7, 1995 on the condition that the
transactions do not result in an importation into the United States of goods of
Iranian origin.

o FINANCIAL DEALINGS WITH IRAN - New investments by U.S.  persons, including
commitments of funds or other assets, loans or any other extensions of credit,
in Iran or in property (including entities) owned or controlled by the
Government of Iran are prohibited. For your information, Appendix A contains a
list of banks owned or controlled by the Government of Iran. While U.S. persons
may continue to charge fees and accrue interest on existing Iranian loans, a
specific license must be obtained to reschedule or otherwise extend the
maturities of existing loans.

Payments for licensed sales of agricultural commodities, medicine and medical
devices must reference an appropriate OFAC license and may not involve a debit
or credit to an account of a person in Iran or the Government of Iran maintained
on the books of either a U.S. depository institution or a U.S. registered broker
or dealer in securities. Payments for and financing of such licensed sales may
be accomplished by cash in advance, sales on open account (provided the account
receivable is not transferred by the person extending the credit), or by
third-country financial institutions that are neither U.S. persons nor
government of Iran entities. Any other arrangements must be specifically
authorized by OFAC. U.S. depository institutions may advise and confirm letters
of credit issued by third-country banks covering licensed sales of agricultural
commodities, medicine and medical devices.

Effective November 10, 2008, the authorization for "U-turn" transfers involving
Iran was revoked.  As of that date, U.S. depository institutions are no longer
authorized to process such transfers, thereby precluding transfers designed to
dollarize transactions through the U.S. financial system for the direct or
indirect benefit of Iranian banks or other persons in Iran or the Government of
Iran.  However, U.S. depository institutions are permitted to handle funds
transfers, through intermediary third-country banks, to or from Iran or for the
direct or indirect benefit of the Government of Iran or a person in Iran,
arising from several types of underlying transactions, including:

a)	a noncommercial family remittance;

b)	an exportation to Iran or importation from Iran of information and
informational materials;

c)	a travel-related remittance;

d)	a payment for the shipment of a donation of articles to relieve human
suffering; or

e)	a transaction authorized by OFAC through a specific or general license.

While the Iranian Transactions Regulations do not contain any blocking
provisions, several Iranian banks have been separately designated under the
Nonproliferation of Weapons of Mass Destruction ("NPWMD") or Specially
Designated Global Terrorist ("SDGT") programs for their involvement in the
financing of either WMD or ballistic missile proliferation or of terrorism,
respectively.  Such banks' property and interests in property that are in the
United States or in the possession or control of U.S. persons, wherever located,
are blocked.  U.S. persons are prohibited from engaging in any transaction or
dealing in property or interests in property of these designated Iranian banks. 
Please see the brochures on Nonproliferation and Terrorism for further
information on these programs.   
  
o FINANCING PURCHASES FROM IRAN OR ITS GOVERNMENT -Payments for authorized
imports of foodstuffs and carpets must reference the relevant section of the
ITR. While U.S. depository institutions may deal with Iranian banks on a
documentary collection basis [URC 522] for authorized purchases of foodstuffs or
carpets, neither payments under collections, nor any other payments, may involve
a debit or credit to the account of a person in Iran or the Government of Iran
on the books of a U.S. depository institution. U.S. depository institutions may
issue letters of credit for purchases provided that the letters of credit are
not advised, negotiated, paid, or confirmed by a bank that is included within
the definition of the term Government of Iran. A bank that is included in the
definition of the term Government of Iran may forward letter of credit documents
strictly on a documentary collection basis, either directly to a U.S. depository
institution or to a third-country bank that is not included within the
definition of the term Government of Iran, but cannot send them on an "approval"
basis since it cannot be party to a letter of credit.

o FINANCING IRANIAN-ORIGIN FOODSTUFFS AND CARPETS OTHER THAN PURCHASES FROM IRAN
OR ITS GOVERNMENT - U.S. depository institutions are authorized to issue,
advise, negotiate, pay, or confirm letters of credit to pay for transactions in
or related to foodstuffs and carpets as referenced in amendments to the ITR
issued at the end of April 2000, other than purchases from Iran or its
Government, provided that such letters of credit are not issued, advised,
negotiated, paid, or confirmed by a bank that is included within the definition
of the term Government of Iran.

o "PRE-ZERO CONTRACTS" - Letters of credit and other financing arrangements with
respect to trade contracts in force as of May 6, 1995, may be performed pursuant
to their terms provided that the underlying trade transaction was completed
prior to June 6, 1995 (February 2, 1996 for "agricultural commodities"), or as
specifically licensed by OFAC. Standby letters of credit that serve as
performance guarantees for services to be rendered after June 6, 1995, cannot be
renewed and payment may not be made after that date without authorization by
OFAC.

o OTHER BANKING SERVICES - U.S. depository institutions, including foreign
branches, are prohibited from servicing accounts of the Government of Iran,
including banks owned or controlled by the Government of Iran (as in Appendix A)
or persons in Iran. However, they are authorized to pay interest, deduct
reasonable and customary service charges, process transfers related to exempt
transactions, such as the exportation of information or informational material,
a travel-related remittance, or a payment for the shipment of a donation of
articles to relieve human suffering or, at the request of an account holder,
effect a lump sum closure of an account by payment to its owner. They may not
otherwise directly credit or debit Iranian accounts.

U.S. depository institutions and U.S. registered brokers or dealers in
securities initiating or receiving payment orders involving Iran on behalf of
customers must determine prior to processing such payments that they do not
involve transactions prohibited by the Iranian Transactions Regulations.

o TRAVEL - All transactions ordinarily incident to travel to or from Iran,
including the importation of accompanied baggage for strictly personal use,
payment of maintenance and living expenses and acquisition of goods or services
for personal use are permitted.

o NON-GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS - Under a general license issued by OFAC,
effective August 22, 2006, U.S. persons that are employees or contractors for
the following international organizations - the United Nations, the World Bank,
the International Monetary Fund, the International Atomic Energy Agency, the
International Labor Organization or the World Health Organization - are
authorized to engage in transactions for the conduct of official business in or
involving Iran. Authorized transactions may include leasing office space or
purchasing Iranian-origin goods necessary to carry out official business,
provided that the funds transfers to and from Iran do not involve a debit or
credit on the books of a U.S. financial institution. The exportation or the
re-exportation of US-origin or non- U.S.-origin goods or technology listed on
the Commerce Control List in the Export Administration Regulations is not
authorized.

o OVERFLIGHT PAYMENTS - Payments to Iran for services rendered by the Government
of Iran in connection with the overflight of Iran or emergency landing in Iran
of aircraft owned by United States persons or registered in the U.S. are
authorized.

o PERSONAL COMMUNICATIONS, INFORMATION AND INFORMATIONAL MATERIALS - The receipt
or transmission of postal, telegraphic, telephonic or other personal
communications, which does not involve the transfer of anything of value,
between the United States and Iran is authorized. The exportation from the
United States to Iran of information and informational materials, whether
commercial or otherwise, regardless of format or medium of transmission, and any
transaction incident to such exportation is authorized.

o TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING U.S. AFFILIATES - No U.S. person may approve or
facilitate the entry into or performance of transactions or contracts with Iran
by a foreign subsidiary of a U.S. firm that the U.S. person is precluded from
performing directly. Similarly, no U.S. person may facilitate such transactions
by unaffiliated foreign persons.

o IRANIAN PETROLEUM INDUSTRY - U.S. persons may not trade in Iranian oil or
petroleum products refined in Iran, nor may they finance such trading.
Similarly, U.S. persons may not perform services, including financing services,
or supply goods or technology that would benefit the Iranian oil industry.

Iranian Assets Control Regulations (31 C.F.R Part 535)

Separate Iranian sanctions regulations appear at 31 C.F.R. Part 535.  On
November 14, 1979, the assets of the Government of Iran in the United States
were blocked in accordance with IEEPA, following the seizure of the American
Embassy in Teheran and the taking of U.S. diplomats as hostages.  Under the
Iranian Assets Control Regulations (Title 31 Part 535 of the U.S. Code of
Federal Regulations), some US$12 billion in Iranian Government bank deposits,
gold, and other properties were frozen, including $5.6 billion in deposits and
securities held by overseas branches of U.S. banks.  The assets freeze was
eventually expanded to a full trade embargo which remained in effect until the
Algiers Accords were signed with Iran on January 19, 1981.  Pursuant to the
Accords, most Iranian assets in the United States were unblocked and the trade
embargo was lifted.  The U.S. Government also canceled any attachments that U.S.
parties had secured against Iranian assets in the United States, so that the
assets could be returned to Iran or transferred to escrow accounts in third
countries pursuant to the Accords.  This action was upheld by the Supreme Court
in 1981 in Dames & Moore v. Regan.  Although greatly modified in scope, the old
Iranian Assets Control Regulations remain in effect.  Many U.S. nationals have
claims against Iran or Iranian entities for products shipped or services
rendered before the onset of the 1979 embargo or for losses sustained in Iran
due to expropriation during that time.  These claims are still being litigated
in the Iran-United States Claims Tribunal at The Hague established under the
Algiers Accords.  Certain assets related to these claims remain blocked in the
United States and consist mainly of diplomatic and consular property.

F- TERRORISM

Terrorism Sanctions Regulations (31 C.F.R. Part 595), Terrorism List Governments
Sanctions Regulations (31 C.F.R. Part 596), Foreign Terrorist Organizations
Sanctions Regulations (31 C.F.R. Part 597), and Executive Order 13224

On January 23, 1995, President Clinton signed Executive Order 12947,
"Prohibiting Transactions with Terrorists Who Threaten to Disrupt the Middle
East Peace Process." The Order blocked all property subject to U.S. jurisdiction
in which there is any interest of 12 Middle East terrorist organizations
included in an Annex to the Order. On August 20, 1998, the President signed
Executive Order 13099 to amend Executive Order 12947, adding additional names.
Executive Order 12947 blocks the property and interests in property of persons
designated by the Secretary of State, in coordination with the Secretary of the
Treasury and the Attorney General, who are found (1) to have committed or to
pose a significant risk of disrupting the Middle East peace process, or (2) to
assist in, sponsor or provide financial, material, or technological support for,
or services in support of, such acts of violence. The Order further blocks all
property and interests in property subject to U.S. jurisdiction in which there
is any interest of persons determined by the Secretary of the Treasury, in
coordination with the Secretary of State and the Attorney General, to be owned
or controlled by, or to act for or on behalf of any other person designated
pursuant to the Order (collectively "Specially Designated Terrorists" or
"SDTs"). SDTs are integrated into OFAC's alphabetized master list of Specially
Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons with an identifier of "[SDT]." They
have also been separately listed in a special OFAC brochure entitled Terrorism:
What You Need to Know About U.S. Sanctions. The Order further prohibits any
transaction or dealing by a United States person or within the United States in
property or interests in property of SDTs, including the making or receiving of
any contribution of funds, goods, or services to or for the benefit of such
persons. It has been implemented by the Terrorism Sanctions Regulations.

_________________________________________________

On April 24, 1996, President Clinton signed into law the Antiterrorism and
Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996, Public Law 104-132, 110 Stat. 1214-1319.
Section 321 of the Act makes it a criminal offense for U.S. persons, except as
provided in regulations issued by the Secretary of the Treasury in consultation
with the Secretary of State, to engage in financial transactions with the
governments of countries designated under section 6(j) of the Export
Administration Act of 1979, 50 U.S.C. App. 2405, as supporting international
terrorism. U.S. persons who engage in such transactions are subject to criminal
penalties under title 18, United States Code. In implementation of section 321,
the Treasury Department has issued the Terrorism List Governments Sanctions
Regulations.

The countries currently designated under section 6(j) of the Export
Administration Act are Cuba, Iran, Libya, North Korea, Sudan, and Syria. The
provisions of existing OFAC regulations governing the Governments of Cuba, Iran,
North Korea, and Sudan continue in effect with the added authority of section
321. Financial transactions of U.S. persons with the governments of those four
countries are governed by the separate parts of Title 31 Chapter V of the U.S.
Code of Federal Regulations imposing economic sanctions on those countries and
information about those programs is available in separate OFAC brochures.
Regarding the governments of countries designated under section 6(j) that are
not otherwise subject to economic sanctions administered by OFAC, at present the
Governments of Syria and Libya, the Terrorism List Governments Sanctions
Regulations specifically prohibit U.S. persons from receiving unlicensed
donations and from engaging in financial transactions with respect to which the
U.S. person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the financial
transaction poses a risk of furthering terrorist acts in the United States.
Banks located in the United States and U.S. banks located offshore must reject
transfers in the form of gifts or charitable contributions from the government
of Syria, or from entities owned or controlled by the government of Syria,
unless the bank knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the transaction
poses a risk of furthering terrorism in the United States, in which case the
funds must be retained by the bank. Banks should immediately notify OFAC
Compliance about any retained items. Reject items must be reported within 10
business days of rejection. For the purposes of this program only, a financial
transaction not originated by the government of Syria (including its central
bank and government owned-or-controlled banks acting for their own accounts),
but transferred to the United States through one of those banks, is not
considered to be a prohibited financial transaction with the government of
Syria.

_________________________________________________

Section 302 of the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996 also
authorizes the Secretary of State to designate organizations as "Foreign
Terrorist Organizations" ("FTOs"). The Act makes it a criminal offense for U.S.
persons to provide material support or resources to FTOs and requires financial
institutions to block all funds in which FTOs or their agents have an interest.
The term "financial institutions" comes from 31 U.S.C. 5312(a)(2) and is defined
very broadly. Among the types of businesses covered by Treasury's Foreign
Terrorist Organizations Sanctions Regulations, which implement Sections 302 and
303 of the Act, are banks, securities and commodities broker/dealers, investment
companies, currency exchanges, issuers, redeemers, and cashiers of traveler's
checks, checks, money orders, or similar instruments, credit card system
operators, insurance companies, dealers in precious metals, stones or jewels,
pawnbrokers, loan and finance companies, travel agencies, licensed money
transmitters, telegraph companies, businesses engaged in vehicle sales,
including automobile, airplane or boat sales, persons involved in real estate
closings or settlements, and casinos. Such "financial institutions" must notify
OFAC Compliance about any blocked funds within ten days of blocking. The Act
provides for civil penalties to be assessed against financial institutions for
failing to block or report the blocking of FTO funds in an amount equal to
$50,000 per violation or twice the amount which ought to have been blocked or
reported, whichever is greater. Foreign Terrorist Organizations and their agents
are integrated into OFAC's alphabetized master list of Specially Designated
Nationals and Blocked Persons with an identifier of "[FTO]." They have been
separately listed in OFAC's Terrorism: What You Need to Know brochure.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 13224 - BLOCKING PROPERTY AND PROHIBITING TRANSACTIONS WITH
PERSONS WHO COMMIT, THREATEN TO COMMIT, OR SUPPORT TERRORISM

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of
the United States of America, including the International  Emergency Economic
Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.)(IEEPA), the  National Emergencies Act (50
U.S.C. 1601 et seq.), section 5 of the  United Nations Participation Act of
1945, as amended (22 U.S.C. 287c)  (UNPA), and section 301 of title 3, United
States Code, and in view  of United Nations Security Council Resolution (UNSCR)
1214 of  December 8, 1998, UNSCR 1267 of October 15, 1999, UNSCR 1333 of
December 19, 2000, and the multilateral sanctions contained therein,  and UNSCR
1363 of July 30, 2001, establishing a mechanism to monitor  the implementation
of UNSCR 1333,

     I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, find that
grave acts of terrorism and threats of terrorism committed  by foreign
terrorists, including the terrorist attacks in New York,  Pennsylvania, and
the Pentagon committed on September 11, 2001,  acts recognized and
condemned in UNSCR 1368 of September 12, 2001,  and UNSCR 1269 of October
19, 1999, and the continuing and immediate  threat of further attacks on
United States nationals or the United  States constitute an unusual and
extraordinary threat to the national  security, foreign policy, and economy
of the United States, and in  furtherance of my proclamation of September
14, 2001, Declaration of  National Emergency by Reason of Certain Terrorist
Attacks, hereby  declare a national emergency to deal with that threat.  I
also find  that because of the pervasiveness and expansiveness of the
financial  foundation of foreign terrorists, financial sanctions may be
appropriate for those foreign persons that support or otherwise  associate
with these foreign terrorists.  I also find that a need  exists for further
consultation and cooperation with, and sharing of information by, United
States and foreign financial institutions as an additional tool to enable
the United States to combat the financing  of terrorism. I hereby order:

Section 1.  Except to the extent required by section 203(b) of IEEPA (50 U.S.C.
1702(b)), or provided in regulations, orders, directives, or licenses that may
be issued pursuant to this order, and notwithstanding any contract entered into
or any license or permit granted prior to the effective date of this order, all
property and interests in property of the following persons that are in the
United States or that hereafter come within the United States, or that hereafter
come within the possession or control of United States persons are blocked: (a)
foreign persons listed in the Annex to this order; (b) foreign persons
determined by the Secretary of State, in consultation with the Secretary of the
Treasury and the Attorney General, to have committed, or to pose a significant
risk of committing, acts of terrorism that threaten the security of U.S.
nationals or the national security, foreign policy, or economy of the United
States;   (c) persons determined by the Secretary of the Treasury, in
consultation with the Secretary of State and the Attorney General, to be owned
or controlled by, or to act for or on behalf of those persons listed in the
Annex to this order or those persons  determined to be subject to subsection
1(b), 1(c), or 1(d)(i) of  this order;  (d) except as provided in section 5 of
this order and after such  consultation, if any, with foreign authorities as the
Secretary of State, in consultation with the Secretary of the Treasury and the
Attorney General, deems appropriate in the exercise of his  discretion, persons
determined by the Secretary of the Treasury,  in consultation with the Secretary
of State and the Attorney General;  (i) to assist in, sponsor, or provide
financial, material, or technological support for, or financial or other
services to or in support of, such acts of terrorism or those persons listed in
the Annex to this order or determined to be subject to this order; or  (ii) to
be otherwise associated with those persons listed in the Annex to this order or
those persons determined to be subject to subsection 1(b), 1(c), or 1(d)(i)  of
this order.

Sec. 2.  Except to the extent required by section 203(b) of IEEPA (50 U.S.C.
1702(b)), or provided in regulations, orders, directives, or licenses that may
be issued pursuant to this order, and notwithstanding any contract entered into
or any license or permit granted prior to the effective date:   (a) any
transaction or dealing by United States persons or within the United States in
property or interests in property blocked  pursuant to this order is prohibited,
including but not limited to the making or receiving of any contribution of
funds, goods, or  services to or for the benefit of those persons listed in the
Annex  to this order or determined to be subject to this order;  (b) any
transaction by any United States person or within the United States that evades
or avoids, or has the purpose of evading or avoiding, or attempts to violate,
any of the prohibitions set forth in this order is prohibited; and  (c) any
conspiracy formed to violate any of the prohibitions set  forth in this order is
prohibited.

Sec. 3.  For purposes of this order: (a) the term "person" means an individual
or entity; (b) the term "entity" means a partnership, association, corporation,
or other organization, group, or subgroup;  (c) the term "United States person"
means any United States citizen, permanent resident alien, entity organized
under the laws of the United States (including foreign branches), or any person
in the United States; and  (d) the term "terrorism" means an activity that --
(i) involves a violent act or an act dangerous to human life, property, or
infrastructure; and          (ii) appears to be intended -- (A) to intimidate or
coerce a civilian population; (B) to influence the policy of a government by
intimidation or coercion; or (C) to affect the conduct of a government by mass
destruction, assassination, kidnapping, or hostage-taking.

Sec. 4.  I hereby determine that the making of donations of the type  specified
in section 203(b)(2) of IEEPA (50 U.S.C. 1702(b)(2)) by  United States persons
to persons determined to be subject to this  order would seriously impair my
ability to deal with the national  emergency declared in this order, and would
endanger Armed Forces of  the United States that are in a situation where
imminent involvement  in hostilities is clearly indicated by the circumstances,
and hereby  prohibit such donations as provided by section 1 of this order.
Furthermore, I hereby determine that the Trade Sanctions Reform and  Export
Enhancement Act of 2000 (title IX, Public Law 106_387) shall not affect the
imposition or the continuation of the imposition of any unilateral agricultural
sanction or unilateral medical sanction  on any person determined to be subject
to this order because imminent involvement of the Armed Forces of the United
States in hostilities is clearly indicated by the circumstances.

Sec. 5.  With respect to those persons designated pursuant to subsection 1(d) of
this order, the Secretary of the Treasury, in the  exercise of his discretion
and in consultation with the Secretary of State and the Attorney General, may
take such other actions than  the complete blocking of property or interests in
property as the President is authorized to take under IEEPA and UNPA if the
Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of State and the
Attorney General, deems such other actions to be consistent with the national
interests of the United States, considering such factors as he deems
appropriate.

Sec. 6.  The Secretary of State, the Secretary of the Treasury, and other
appropriate agencies shall make all relevant efforts to cooperate and coordinate
with other countries, including through technical assistance, as well as
bilateral and multilateral agreements and arrangements, to achieve the
objectives of this order, including the prevention and suppression of acts of
terrorism, the denial of financing and financial services to terrorists and
terrorist organizations, and the sharing of intelligence about funding
activities in support of terrorism.

Sec. 7.  The Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of
State and the Attorney General, is hereby authorized to take such actions,
including the promulgation of rules and regulations, and to employ all powers
granted to the President by IEEPA and UNPA as may be necessary to carry out the
purposes of this order.  The Secretary of the Treasury may redelegate any of
these functions to other officers and agencies of the United States Government.
All agencies of the United States Government are hereby  directed to take all
appropriate measures within their authority to  carry out the provisions of this
order.

Sec. 8.  Nothing in this order is intended to affect the continued effectiveness
of any rules, regulations, orders, licenses, or other forms of administrative
action issued, taken, or continued in effect heretofore or hereafter under 31
C.F.R. chapter V, except as expressly terminated, modified, or suspended by or
pursuant to this order.

Sec. 9.  Nothing contained in this order is intended to create, nor does it
create, any right, benefit, or privilege, substantive or procedural, enforceable
at law by a party against the United States, its agencies, officers, employees
or any other person.

Sec. 10. For those persons listed in the Annex to this order or determined to be
subject to this order who might have a constitutional presence in the United
States, I find that because of the ability to transfer funds or assets
instantaneously, prior notice to such persons of measures to be taken pursuant
to this order would render these measures ineffectual.  I therefore determine
that for these measures to be effective in addressing the national emergency
declared in this order, there need be no prior notice of a listing or
determination made pursuant to this order.

Sec. 11.  (a) This order is effective at 12:01 a.m. eastern daylight time on
September 24, 2001.

(b) This order shall be transmitted to the Congress and  published in the
Federal Register.


G- NARCOTICS

An overview of U.S. sanctions against Drug Traffickers

Foreign Narcotics Kingpin Designation Act

On December 3, 1999, the President signed into law the Foreign Narcotics Kingpin
Designation Act (the "Kingpin Act"), 21 U.S.C. Sections 1901-1908, 8 U.S.C.
Section 1182.  The related regulations are styled the "Foreign Narcotics Kingpin
Sanctions Regulations" (31 C.F.R. Part 598).

The Kingpin Act blocks all property and interests in property, subject to U.S.
jurisdiction, owned or controlled by significant foreign narcotics traffickers
as identified by the President.  In addition, the Kingpin Act blocks the
property and interests in property, subject to U.S. jurisdiction, of foreign
persons designated by the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the
Attorney General, the Director of Central Intelligence, the Director of the
Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Administrator of the Drug Enforcement
Administration, the Secretary of Defense, and the Secretary of State, who are
found to be: (1) materially assisting in, or providing financial or
technological support for or to, or providing goods or services in support of,
the international narcotics trafficking activities of a person designated
pursuant to the Kingpin Act; (2) owned, controlled, or directed by, or acting
for or on behalf of, a person designated pursuant to the Kingpin Act; or (3)
playing a significant role in international narcotics trafficking.

Significant foreign narcotics traffickers and foreign persons designated by the
Secretary of the Treasury are referred to collectively as Specially Designated
Narcotics Traffickers. Foreign persons designated under the Kingpin Act are
referred to as "[SDNTK]s" on OFAC's listing of "Specially Designated Nationals
and Blocked Persons" to differentiate them from the Specially Designated
Narcotics Traffickers named under Executive Order 12978 (see below).

U.S. persons are prohibited from engaging in any transaction or dealing in
property or interests in property of [SDNTK]s and from engaging in any
transaction which evades or avoids the prohibitions of the Kingpin Act.  These
prohibitions affect trade transactions as well as accounts, securities, and
other assets.

In addition to being integrated into OFAC's alphabetized master list of
Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons, [SDNTK]s have also been
separately listed in a special OFAC brochure entitled Narcotics: What You Need
to Know About U.S. Sanctions Against Drug Traffickers  An Overview of the
Foreign Narcotics Kingpin Designation Act (21 U.S.C.  1901-1908, 8 U.S.C. 
1182) and Executive Order 12978 of October 21, 1995).  Please reference the
Narcotics Brochure or the master SDN list for the complete listing of [SDNTK]s.

Executive Order 12978 of October 21, 1995

On October 21, 1995, President Clinton signed Executive Order 12978 entitled
"Blocking Assets and Prohibiting Transactions with Significant Narcotics
Traffickers" (the "Order"), which imposes sanctions with respect to narcotics
traffickers centered in Colombia.  Executive Order 12978 has been implemented by
the "Narcotics Trafficking Sanctions Regulations" at 31 C.F.R. Part 536.

The Order blocks all property subject to U.S. jurisdiction in which there is any
interest of four principal figures in the Cali drug cartel who are listed in the
annex to the Order.  Those four individuals are named as "Principal
Individuals."  In addition, the Order blocks the property and interests in
property of foreign persons determined by the Secretary of the Treasury, in
consultation with the Attorney General and the Secretary of State, (a) to play a
significant role in international narcotics trafficking centered in Colombia, or
(b) to materially assist in or provide financial or technological support for,
or goods or services in suport of, the narcotics trafficking activities of
persons designated in or pursuant to the Order.  In addition, the Order blocks
all property and interests in property subject to U.S. jurisdiction of persons
determined by the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Attorney
General and the Secretary of State, to be owned or controlled by, or to act for
or on behalf of, persons designated in or pursuant to the Order (collectively
"Specially Designated Narcotics Traffickers").  Those designated are referred to
as "[SDNT]s" on OFAC's listing of "Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked
Persons" to differentiate them from the Specially Designated Narcotics
Traffickers named under the Kingpin Act.  In addition to being integrated into
OFAC's alphabetized master list of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked
Persons, [SDNT]s have also been separately listed in a special OFAC brochure
entitled Narcotics: What You Need to Know About U.S. Sanctions Against Drug
Traffickers - An Overview of the Foreign Narcotics Kingpin Designation Act (21
U.S.C. Sections 1901-1908, 8 U.S.C. Section 1182 and Executive Order 12978 of
October 21, 1995).

The Order further prohibits any transaction or dealing by a United States person
or within the United States in property or interests in property of [SDNT]s, and
any transaction which evades or avoids, has the purpose of evading or avoiding,
or attempts to violate the prohibitions contained in the Order.  This obviously
impacts trade transactions (involving, for example, letters of credit) as well
as accounts and other assets.

Designations of persons blocked pursuant to the Order are effective upon the
date of determination by the Director of the Office of Foreign Assets Control,
acting under authority delegated by the Secretary of the Treasury.  Public
notice of blocking is effective upon the date of filing with the Federal
Register, or upon prior actual notice.

H- BURMA (MYANMAR)

Burmese Sanctions Regulations (31 C.F.R. Part 537)

INTRODUCTION - On May 20, 1997, in response to the Burmese Government's large
scale repression of, and violence against, the Democratic opposition, President
Clinton issued Executive Order 13047 declaring a national emergency with respect
to these actions and policies of the Government of Burma.  The order, issued
under the authority of section 570(b) of the Foreign Operations, Export
Financing and Related Programs Appropriations Act, 1997 (Public Law 104-208) and
the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701-1706)(IEEPA),
prohibits new investment in Burma by U.S. persons and U.S. persons' facilitation
of new investment in Burma by foreign persons.

On July 28, 2003, the Burmese Freedom and Democracy Act of 2003 (BFDA) was
signed into law, to restrict the financial resources of Burma's ruling military
junta, the State Peace and Development Council (SPDC).  The BFDA requires the
President to ban the importation into the United States of products of Burma,
beginning 30 days after the date of enactment of the BFDA, as well as to
consider blocking the assets of certain SPDC members and taking steps to prevent
further financial or technical assistance to Burma until certain conditions are
met.

To implement the BFDA and to take additional steps with respect to the
Government of Burma's continued repression of the democratic opposition in
Burma, the President issued Executive Order 13310 (the Order) on July 28, 2003.
The Order blocks all property and interests in property of the persons listed in
the Annex to the Order and of certain persons determined, at a future point, by
the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of State, to
meet the criteria set forth in the Order.  It also bans the importation into the
United States of products of Burma and the exportation or reexportation to Burma
of financial services from the United States or by U.S. persons.  Like the
previous executive order, it exempts from its blocking and financial service
prohibitions any transactions pursuant to pre-May 21, 1997 agreements between a
U.S. person and any entity in Burma.

The Department of the Treasury's Burmese Sanctions Regulations, 31 C.F.R. Part
537 (the BSR), were issued initially to implement Executive Order 13047.  To
implement Executive Order 13310 and the BFDA, these regulations were extensively
amended and reissued in their entirety.

Criminal penalties for willful violations of the Burmese Sanctions Regulations,
or of any license, rule or regulation issued under it, include $50,000 in fines
for a corporation or individual, or up to 20 years imprisonment for an
individual, or both.  Fines for criminal violations may be increased to $500,000
for corporations and $250,000 for individuals pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 3571.  Civil
penalties of up to $50,000 per violation may be imposed administratively.

BLOCKING OF PROPERTY - Executive Order 13310 blocks property and property
interests of persons listed in the Annex to the order and of persons that are
designated by the U.S. Treasury Department as being a senior official of the
Government of Burma, of the State Peace and Development Council of Burma, of the
Union Solidarity and Development Association of Burma or of any successor to the
foregoing.  The Executive Order also gives the Treasury Department the authority
to designate individuals or entities that are owned or controlled by, or acting
for or on behalf of, any of those officials or groups.  Generally, no U.S.
person can have any dealings with persons listed in, or designated by the
Treasury under, Executive Order 13310, and all property in which any listed or
designated person has an interest is blocked if it is in the United States or in
the possession or control of a U.S. person.

Three of the four entities listed in the annex to Executive Order 13310 are the
banks in Burma that conduct international transactions.  Some dealings with
these banks are authorized if the transactions are necessary to conduct
otherwise authorized transactions.  In no case, however, can a blocked account
of one of these financial institutions on the books of a U.S. bank be used to
transfer the funds.  All authorized transactions must be conducted through an
account of one of these banks on the books of a non-U.S. bank.

NO IMPORTATION OF PRODUCTS OF BURMA - Generally speaking, Burmese origin goods
may not be imported into the United States.  There are a few limited exceptions,
such as the importation of household goods by a person who had lived in Burma,
certain diplomatic imports, and informational materials.

EXPORTATION OF GOODS AND NON-FINANCIAL SERVICES TO BURMA -  There is no
prohibition on the exportation of goods and services other than financial
services to Burma.  You do need to be aware of how some of the other
prohibitions may affect these transactions, however.  For example, in light of
the prohibition on the exportation of financial services to Burma, and the
blocking of the property of certain individuals and entities in Burma, you can
only be paid from an account maintained on the books of a non-U.S. bank.  You
also need to be aware of the prohibitions on new investment in Burma.

EXPORTATION OF FINANCIAL SERVICES TO BURMA - Generally speaking, the exportation
of financial services to Burma is prohibited.  The term exportation or
reexportation of  financial services to Burma is defined broadly to mean (1) the
transfer of funds, directly or indirectly, from the United States or by a U.S.
person, wherever located, to Burma, and (2) the provision, directly or
indirectly, to persons in Burma of insurance services, investment or brokerage
services, banking services, money remittance services; loans, guarantees,
letters of credit or other extensions of credit; or the service of selling or
redeeming traveler's checks, money orders and stored value.  This defined term
is unique to the Burma sanctions program.

There are limited exceptions to the ban on the exportation of financial
services.  For example, payments can be made for certain licensed or exempt
transactions, such as diplomatic payments and payments for goods exported to
Burma.  Under no circumstances can payments be made from blocked accounts on the
books of a U.S. bank.

OPERATION OF ACCOUNTS FOR INDIVIDUALS IN BURMA -  U.S. financial institutions
can operate accounts for individuals in Burma, provided that the individual is
not a blocked party, the account is used solely for personal transactions that
are not otherwise prohibited, and no transfers are made from the account
directly or indirectly to Burma or for the benefit of individuals ordinarily
resident in Burma unless authorized by section 537.517 of the BSR.

TRANSFER OF PERSONAL REMITTANCES TO/FROM BURMA -  Pursuant to section 537.517 of
the BSR, U.S. banks, U.S. registered broker-dealers and U.S. registered money
transmitters are authorized to send non-commercial, personal remittances to or
from Burma or for or on behalf of an individual ordinarily resident in Burma,
provided that the funds are not being sent by, to or on behalf of a blocked
party.  Total remittances may not exceed $300.00 per Burmese household in any
consecutive three-month period.  These transfers may not involve a blocked
account on the books of a U.S. bank. Noncommercial, personal remittances do not
include charitable donations to or for the benefit of an entity or funds
transfers for use in supporting or operating a business.  U.S. persons, however,
may make charitable donations to nongovernmental organizations in Burma that are
authorized to operate pursuant to section 537.523 of the BSR (see next item),
provided that the donations are made pursuant to section 537.523 and the terms
of the authorization.

NGO ACTIVITY IN BURMA - OFAC issues licenses to nongovernmental organizations to
engage in humanitarian or religious activities in Burma that would otherwise be
prohibited.  Any NGO interested in obtaining such a license should refer to
section 537.523 of the BSR, or contact OFAC's Licensing Division at
202/622-2480.

NEW INVESTMENT - The sanctions prohibit new investment in Burma by U.S. persons
on or after May 21, 1997, unless such investment is pursuant to an agreement in
place prior to May 21, 1997.  A number of criteria are used to determine whether
or not a specific activity is "grandfathered."  Factors taken into account
include the clarity of the scope of the agreement, the degree of specificity
with which the activity is described, and the extent to which the terms of the
agreement are legally enforceable.

New investment in Burma is defined as a contract with the Government of Burma or
a nongovernmental entity in Burma for the development of resources (including
natural, agricultural, commercial, financial, industrial and human resources)
located in Burma.  The prohibition includes purchasing a share of ownership (an
equity interest) in a project or entering into an agreement that provides for a
participation in royalties, earnings, or profits from the economic development
of resources located in Burma. Executive Order 13047 and the BSR also prohibit a
U.S. company from entering into a contract that provides for the general
supervision and guarantee of another person's performance of an agreement for
the economic development of resources located in Burma.

U.S. persons with pre-May 21, 1997 agreements for the economic development of
resources located in Burma should contact the Department of the Treasury's
Office of Foreign Assets Control for a determination as to whether or not their
project is exempt from the sanctions.

FACILITATION - A U.S. person is prohibited from approving, aiding or supporting
a foreign person's investment in Burma, if the foreign person's activity would
constitute prohibited new investment if engaged in by a U.S. person.  Exception:
Although contracting to sell to a foreign person a U.S. person's equity or
income interest in a development project in Burma constitutes facilitation of
that foreign person's investment in Burma, such a divestiture is authorized by
general license.  If the transaction is valued at more than $10,000, a report
must be filed for statistical purposes with the Office of Foreign Assets Control
within ten business days of the signing of such an agreement.

Examples of prohibited facilitation of a foreign person's new investment in
Burma follow:

*    The foreign subsidiary of a U.S. company wishes to bid on a project to
develop a coal mine in Burma.  The U.S. parent cannot approve, supervise, or
otherwise be involved in the foreign subsidiary's negotiations with regard to
this project.

*    A U.S. oil company holds a pre-May 21, 1997 contract to develop a Burmese
oil field.  It wishes to sell its rights under the contract to a foreign
company.  It is authorized to sell an interest without prior authorization from
OFAC, but if the agreement is valued at more than $10,000, the seller must file
a report with OFAC within ten days of the signing of the agreement.

INVESTMENT IN THIRD COUNTRY COMPANIES - U.S. persons are prohibited from
purchasing shares in a third-country company if the company's profits are
predominantly derived from the company's economic development of resources
located in Burma.  If a person holds shares in an entity that subsequently
engages exclusively or predominantly in the economic development of resources in
Burma, or subsequently derives its income exclusively or predominantly from such
activity, the U.S. person is not required to relinquish its shares, but may not
purchase additional shares.  If the U.S. person sells off shares valued at more
than $10,000, the seller must file a report with OFAC for statistical purposes
within ten days of the sale.



I- SUDAN

Sudanese Sanctions Regulations (31 C.F.R. Part 538)

INTRODUCTION - On November 3, 1997, after finding that the policies and actions
of the Government of Sudan, including continued support for international
terrorism, ongoing efforts to destabilize neighboring governments, and the
prevalence of human rights violations, including slavery and the denial of
religious freedom, constituted an unusual and extraordinary threat to the
national security and foreign policy of the United States, President Clinton
issued Executive Order 13067 declaring a national emergency to deal with that
threat.  The order, issued under the authority of International Emergency
Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701-1706) ("IEEPA"), the National Emergencies
Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.), and Section 301 of title 3, United States Code,
imposed a trade embargo against Sudan and a total asset freeze against the
Government of Sudan.  The Sudanese Sanctions Regulations, 31 C.F.R. Part 538
(the "Regulations") implement Executive Order 13067.

On March 29, 2006, the United Nations Security Council issued Resolution 1591
condemning the continued violations of human rights and international
humanitarian law in Sudan's Darfur region and, in particular, the continuation
of violence against civilians and sexual violence against women and girls.  The
Resolution determined that the situation in Darfur constituted a threat to
international peace and security in the region and called on member states to
take certain measures against persons responsible for the continuing conflict.
In response to this Resolution, on April 27, 2006, President Bush issued a new
Executive Order expanding Executive Order No. 13067 to block the property and
interests in property of certain persons connected with the conflict in Darfur.
The new Executive Order contained the names of four individuals subject to its
provisions, and gave the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the
Secretary of State, the authority to designate additional individuals and
entities found to meet certain criteria.

SPECIALLY DESIGNATED NATIONALS - Individuals or organizations that are owned or
controlled by, or act on behalf of, the Government of Sudan anywhere in the
world, as well as individuals and entities found to meet the criteria outlined
in the April 27, 2006 Executive Order may be named by the U.S. Treasury
Department as "Specially Designated Nationals" ("SDNs") of Sudan. U.S. persons
are prohibited from transacting business with these individuals and entities,
and all of their property in the United States or in the possession or control
of a U.S. person is blocked.  Their names are published in the Federal Register,
an official publication of the U.S. Government. The listing, however, is a
partial one and any U.S. individual or organization engaging in transactions
with foreign nationals must take reasonable care to make certain that such
foreign nationals are not owned or controlled by or acting on behalf of Sudan.
U.S. individuals or organizations who violate the Regulations by transacting
business with Specially Designated Nationals may be subject to civil or criminal
prosecution.

BUYING FROM SUDAN - Goods or services of Sudanese origin may not be imported
into the United States either directly or through third countries without a
license.  Exceptions include: (1) Sudanese merchandise up to $100 in value in
non-commercial quantities may be brought into the United States either for
strictly personal use as accompanied baggage or sent as a gift to a person in
the United States and (2) information or informational materials may be imported
without restriction.  All other imports of Sudanese origin must be authorized by
the Office of Foreign Assets Control.

Importation into the United States from third countries of goods containing raw
materials or components of Sudanese origin is not prohibited if those raw
materials or components have been incorporated into manufactured products or
otherwise substantially transformed in a third country.

SELLING TO SUDAN - Except for information or informational materials and donated
articles intended to relieve human suffering, such as food, clothing, and
medicine, and the licensed export of agricultural commodities, medicine, and
medical devices, no goods, technology, or services may be exported from the
United States to Sudan, either directly or through third countries without a
license.  Exportation of goods or technology from the United States to third
countries is prohibited if the exporter knows, or has reason to know, that the
goods or technology are intended for transshipment to Sudan.  The exportation of
goods or technology intended specifically for incorporation or substantial
transformation into a third-country product is also prohibited if the particular
product is to be used in Sudan, is being specifically manufactured to fill a
Sudanese order, or if the manufacturer's sales of the particular product are
predominantly to Sudan.

No U.S. bank, including its foreign branches, may finance or arrange offshore
financing for third-country trade transactions where Sudan is known to be the
ultimate destination of, or the Government of Sudan is the purchaser of, the
goods.  Arranging transactions which ultimately benefit Sudan (for example,
brokering third-country sales to Sudan) constitutes an exportation of brokerage
services to Sudan in violation of the Regulations.  The Regulations also
prohibit non-U.S. persons from unauthorized reexportation of U.S.-origin goods
to Sudan.

SUDANESE GOVERNMENT ASSETS BLOCKED - Effective November 4, 1997, all property
and interests in property of the Government of Sudan, including its agencies,
instrumentalities, and controlled entities and SDNs, in the United States or in
the possession or control of a U.S. person, including their overseas branches,
are blocked.  All transfers of such property must be authorized by OFAC.  Any
unlicensed funds transfer involving a direct or indirect interest of the
Government of Sudan (including any transfer routed to a Sudanese Government-
controlled bank) for which banks subject to U.S. jurisdiction receive
instructions must be deposited into a blocked account on the books of the bank
receiving the instructions.  Such funds may not be returned to a remitter
without a specific license from OFAC.  No unlicensed debits may be made to
blocked accounts to pay obligations of U.S. or other persons, whether the
obligations arose before or after the sanctions against Sudan were imposed.
Setoffs against blocked accounts are prohibited.

FINANCIAL DEALINGS WITH SUDAN - Payments for and financing of licensed sales of
agriculutral commodities, medicine, and medical devices may be accomplished by
cash in advance, sales on open account (provided that the account receivable is
not transferred by the person extending the credit), or by third-country
financial institutions which are neither U.S. persons nor government of Sudan
entities.  U.S. banks may advise and confirm letters of credit issued by third-
country banks covering such licensed sales.

Payments for licensed sales of agricultural commodities, medicine, and medical
devices, which must reference an appropriate OFAC license, may not involve a
debit to a blocked account on the books of a U.S. depository institution. Before
a U.S. bank initiates a payment, or credits its customer for a licensed
transaction, it must determine that the transfer is authorized.

As a rule, all other financial dealings with Sudan are prohibited, including the
performance by any U.S. person of any contract, including a financing contract,
in support of an industrial, commercial, public utility, or governmental project
in Sudan.

Regulated U.S. depository institutions, broker-dealers and money service
businesses (MSBs) are authorized to send and receive personal remittances to and
from Sudan, provided that such transfers are not processed through a bank owned
or controlled by the Government of Sudan.  U.S. depository institutions and
broker-dealers are authorized to operate accounts for individuals normally
resident in Sudan, provided that all transactions through the account are
personal in nature and are not related to commercial activity in Sudan.

PROHIBITED FACILITATION - The Regulations prohibit the facilitation by a U.S.
person of the direct or indirect exportation or reexportation of goods,
technology, or services to or from Sudan. Facilitation of a trade or financial
transaction which could be lawfully engaged in directly by a U.S. person or from
the United States is not prohibited.  Likewise, performance of services of a
purely clerical or reporting nature which does not further trade or financial
transactions with Sudan or the Government of Sudan will not violate the
prohibition on exportation of services to Sudan.

NON-GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS - Registration numbers may be issued by OFAC on a
case-by-case basis to non-governmental organizations ("NGOs") involved in
humanitarian or religious activities in Sudan. A registration number authorizes
certain transactions by or on behalf of the registered NGO that would be
otherwise prohibited, such as the exportation of goods or services, or the
transfer of funds directly into Sudan, for the purpose of relieving human
suffering.  Applications for registration must include the following information
(names of individuals and organizations should be provided in English, in the
language of origin, or transliterated when not possible and should include any
acronym or other names used to identify the individuals or organizations): (a)
Organization name; (b)  Address and phone number of the organization's
headquarters location; (c)  Full name, nationality, citizenship, current country
of residence, birth dates and places of birth for key staff at the
organization's headquarters, such as the chairman and board members, president,
director, etc.; (d)  Identification of field offices or partner offices
elsewhere, including addresses, phone numbers, and organizational names used, as
well as the identification of the senior officer(s) at these locations,
including their name, nationality, citizenship, position, and date of birth; (e)
Identification of subcontracting organizations, if any, to the extent known or
contemplated at the time of the proposal;  (f)  Existing sources of income, such
as official grants, private endowments, commercial activities, etc.;  (g)
Financial institutions that hold deposits on behalf of or extend lines of credit
to the organization;  (h)  Independent accounting firms (if employed in the
production of the organization's financial statements);  (i)  Most recent
official registry documents, annual reports, and annual filings with the local
government, as applicable / available;  (j)  Names and addresses of
organizations that the applicant currently provides or proposes to provide
funding, services or material support to, as applicable; (k)  A detailed
description of the organization's  humanitarian or religious activities and
projects in Sudan.

Registrants conducting transactions for their Sudanese operations should
reference their registration number on all funds transfer, purchase, shipping,
and financing documents.  OFAC records must be updated by Registrants with any
changes to (a) - (j).

J- NONPROLIFERATION

EXECUTIVE ORDER 13382, BLOCKING PROPERTY OF WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION
PROLIERATORS AND THEIR SUPPORTERS; THE WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION TRADE
CONTROL REGULATIONS (Part 539 of Title 31, C.F.R); AND THE HIGHLY ENRICHED
URANIUM (HEU) AGREEMENT ASSETS CONTROL REGULATIONS (Part 540 of Title 31, C.F.R)

INTRODUCTION - The Treasury Departments Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC)
implements three distinct sanctions programs designed to combat the
proliferation of weapons of mass destruction (WMD). The requirements under each
of the programs are different.  Each program is described in further detail in
this brochure, but they can be summarized as follows:

Executive Order 13382 of June 28, 2005, blocks the property of persons engaged
in proliferation activities and their support networks.  OFAC administers this
blocking program, which initially applied to eight organizations in North Korea,
Iran, and Syria. Treasury, together with the Department of State, is authorized
to designate additional WMD proliferators and their supporters under the new
authorities provided by this Executive Order.

OFACs Weapons of Mass Destruction Trade Control Regulations, 31 C.F.R. Part
539, implement a ban on imports into the United States, pursuant to Executive
Order 12938. Under this program, the Secretary of State may name as subject to
the ban foreign persons determined to have engaged in proliferation-related
activities.

OFACs Highly Enriched Uranium (HEU) Agreement Assets Control Regulations,
31 C.F.R. Part 540, implement Executive Order 13159 of June 21, 2000,
Blocking Property of the Government of the Russian Federation Relating
to the Disposition of Highly Enriched Uranium Extracted From Nuclear Weapons.
These regulations and Executive Order 13159 are directed at the property used to
carry out international agreements between the United States and the Russian
Federation for the conversion of highly enriched uranium extracted from Russian
nuclear weapons into low-enriched uranium for use in commercial nuclear
reactors.

The three WMD sanctions programs administered by OFAC are described in greater
detail below.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 13382, BLOCKING PROPERTY OF WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION
PROLIFERATORS AND THEIR SUPPORTERS SUMMARY OF EXECUTIVE ORDER - Executive Order
13382 of June 28, 2005 (E.O. 13382), takes additional steps to deal with the
national emergency declared in Executive Order 12938 of November 14, 1994 (see
below), with respect to the proliferation of WMD and the means of delivering
them.  The Executive Order blocks the property of specially designated WMD
proliferators and members of their support networks.  The action effectively
denies those parties access to the U.S. financial and commercial systems.  The
program is administered by OFAC.

PROHIBITED TRANSACTIONS - U.S. persons, meaning any U.S. citizen, permanent
resident alien, U.S. company (including their foreign branches) and any person
or company in the United States, are prohibited from engaging in any transaction
or dealing with any party designated under Executive Order 13382.  In addition,
all property within the possession or control of any U.S. person in which a
target has an interest is blocked and must be reported to OFAC within ten days.
The names of those actually listed in the Annex to E.O. 13382, and any parties
named subsequent to the Executive Order, are incorporated into OFACs Specially
Designated Nationals (SDN) list. The parties blocked under this program are:

The following names were listed in the Annex of Executive Order 13382 and have
been incorporated into the SDN list with the program designation [NPWMD].

Order 13382, Blocking Property of Weapons of Mass Destruction Proliferators and
Their Supporters; the  Weapons of Mass Destruction Trade Control Regulations
(Part 539 of Title 31, C.F.R); and the Highly Enriched Uranium (HEU) Agreement
Assets Control Regulations (Part 540 of Title 31, C.F.R).  Please reference the
Nonproliferation Brochure or the master SDN list for the complete listing of
individuals and entities designated as [NPWMD]s.

PENALTIES - Criminal penalties for willful violations of E.O. 13382, or of any
license, rule or regulation issued under it, range up to 20 years in prison,
$500,000 in fines for a corporation and  $250,000 for an individual.  In
addition, civil penalties of up to $50,000 per violation may be imposed
administratively.


WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION TRADE CONTROL REGULATIONS, (31 C.F.R. Part 539)

SUMMARY OF EXECUTIVE ORDER 12938, AS AMENDED - In Executive Order 12938 of
November 14, 1994, President Clinton declared a national emergency with respect
to the proliferation of nuclear, biological and chemical weapons (weapons of
mass destruction or WMD) and the means of delivering them.  E.O. 12938 provides
that the Secretary of the Treasury shall prohibit the importation into the
United States of goods, technology, or services produced or provided by foreign
persons on which the Secretary of State has determined to impose an import ban
because of their WMD proliferation activities.  (Information or informational
materials within the meaning of section 203(b)(3) of IEEPA, 50 U.S.C.
1702(b)(3), are exempt from this prohibition.)

IMPORT BAN - OFAC issued the Weapons of Mass Destruction Trade Control
Regulations, 31 C.F.R. Part 540 (the Regulations), to implement the import
ban imposed under Executive Order 12938.  The Regulations prohibit the direct
or indirect importation into the United States, including for transshipment or
transit, of any goods, technology, or services produced or provided by the
foreign persons on which the Secretary of State has determined to impose an
import ban pursuant to E.O. 12938 (designated foreign persons).  The importation
into the United States of goods or technology from third countries is also
prohibited if undertaken with knowledge or reason to know that those goods
contain
raw materials, components, or technology produced or provided by a designated
foreign person. In addition to banning imports, the Regulations prohibit U.S.
persons from financing, acting as a broker for, transporting or otherwise
participating in the importation into the United States of any goods, technology
or services produced or provided by a designated foreign person.  The term
designated
foreign person means any foreign person on which the Secretary of State has
determined to impose an import ban pursuant to E.O. 12938 and any entities owned
or controlled by that foreign person, including any subsidiaries and branches,
successors, and persons acting or purporting to act for or on behalf of any of
them.

Services are considered to be imported into the United States where either the
services or their benefit are received in the United States, regardless of where
such services may be performed.  The benefit of services performed is received
in the United States if the services are: (1) performed on behalf of or for the
benefit of a person located in the United States; (2) received by a person
located in the United States; (3) received by a person located outside the
United States on behalf of or for the benefit of an entity organized in the
United States; or (4) received by an individual temporarily located outside
the United States for the purpose of obtaining such services for use in the
United States.

FOREIGN PERSONS DESIGNATED BY THE SECRETARY OF STATE - The following foreign	
persons (with name variations as shown) have been determined by the Secretary of
State to be subject to the import ban.  The applicable effective date with
respect to each designated foreign person and the citation to the State
Departments Federal Register notice appear in brackets following each entry.
The import ban also applies to any entity owned or controlled by the named
entities.

It is important to note that the parties determined to be subject to the import
ban are not necessarily designated under Executive Order 13382.  Therefore, the
assets of parties that are subject to the import ban, but not Executive Order
13382, are not blocked.  However, the importation into the United States of
goods, technology, or services produced or provided by such persons, as well as
related transactions, are prohibited.

HIGHLY ENRICHED URANIUM (HEU) ASSETS CONTROL REGULATIONS, 31 C.F.R. PART 540

A major national security goal of the United States is to ensure that fissile
material removed from Russian nuclear weapons pursuant to various arms control
and disarmament agreements is dedicated to peaceful uses and protected from
diversion to activities of proliferation concern.  In 1993, the United States
and the Russian Federation entered into an international agreement for the
conversion of highly enriched uranium (HEU) extracted from Russian nuclear
weapons into low-enriched uranium for use in commercial nuclear reactors.  Under
this and related contracts and agreements (collectively, the HEU Agreements),
500 metric tons of highly enriched uranium  the equivalent of 20,000 nuclear
warheads  will be converted to low enriched uranium over a 20-year period. On
June 21, 2000, President Clinton issued Executive Order 13159, Blocking
Property of the Government of the Russian Federation Relating to the Disposition
of Highly Enriched Uranium Extracted From Nuclear Weapons.  This order,
explicitly directed at the property used to implement the HEU Agreements,
prevents attachment or garnishment in the United States.  It is meant to protect
a very specific set of assets, defined by regulations, orders, directives, or
licenses issued by the U.S. Treasury Departments Office of Foreign Assets
Control.  The order does not block any property or interests in property of the
Government of the Russian Federation that are not directly related  to the
implementation of  the HEU  Agreements. The  Office of Foreign Assets Control
issued the Highly Enriched Uranium (HEU) Agreement Assets Control Regulations,
31 C.F.R. Part 540, to implement Executive Order 13159.



K- DIAMOND TRADING

Rough Diamonds Control Regulations (31 CFR Part 592)

INTRODUCTION - In the Interlaken Declaration of November 5, 2002,
representatives of the United States and 47 other countries announced the launch
of the Kimberley Process Certification Scheme for rough diamonds ("KPCS").
Countries participating in the KPCS ("Participants") are expected to prohibit
the importation of rough diamonds from, and the exportation of rough diamonds
to, non-Participants and to require that shipments of rough diamonds from or to
a Participant be controlled through the KPCS.

On April 25, 2003, the President signed the Clean Diamond Trade Act (Pub. L.
108-19) ("the Act").  The Act requires the President to take steps to implement
the KPCS in the United States.  On July 29, 2003, the President issued Executive
Order 13312, "Implementing the Clean Diamond Trade Act."

PROHIBITED TRANSACTIONS - Executive Order 13312 prohibits, subject to certain
waiver authorities set forth in section 4(b) of the Act, the importation into,
and exportation from, the United States of any rough diamonds, from whatever
source, not controlled through the KPCS.  (Pursuant to section 4(b) of the Act,
the Secretary of State, in certain limited circumstances, may waive these
prohibitions with respect to a particular country for periods of not more than
one year each.)  This means that shipments of rough diamonds between the United
States and countries that do not participate in the KPCS generally are
prohibited, and shipments between the United States and Participants are
permitted only if they are "controlled through the KPCS," i.e., handled in
accordance with the standards, practices, and procedures of the KPCS, as
summarized below. Executive Order 13312 also prohibits any transaction by a
United States person or within the United States that evades or avoids, or has
the purpose of evading or avoiding, or attempts to violate, any of the
prohibitions of the order, as well as any conspiracy formed to violate any of
the prohibitions of the order.

The Department of State is responsible for identifying all the Participants
eligible for trade in rough diamonds (and their importing and exporting
authorities) and periodically publishes an up-to-date list of Participants in
the Federal Register. The list of Participants may be amended at any time as
determined appropriate by the Secretary of State.

KPCS REQUIREMENTS  OFAC's Rough Diamonds Control Regulations, 31 CFR Part 592,
implement Executive Order 13312 and the KPCS. The regulations, as amended, were
published at 69 FR 56936 (September 23, 2004).  As explained in detail in those
regulations, except to the extent modified by the Secretary of State, all
shipments of rough diamonds imported into the United States from a Participant,
or exported from the United States to a Participant must be accompanied by a
Kimberley Process Certificate and sealed in a tamper-resistant container. The
Kimberley Process Certificate must bear the following information: the title
"Kimberley Process Certificate"; the statement, "The rough diamonds in this
shipment have been handled in accordance with the provisions of the Kimberley
Process Certification Scheme for rough diamonds"; country of origin for shipment
of parcels of unmixed origin; unique numbering with the Alpha 2 country code,
according to ISO 3166-1; date of issuance; date of expiry; name of issuing
authority; identification of exporter and importer; carat weight/mass; value;
number of parcels in shipment; Harmonized Commodity Description and Coding
System; and validation by the exporting authority. A shipment of rough diamonds
imported into the United States that includes a parcel of mixed-origin rough
diamonds must be accompanied by the Kimberley Process Certificate, and the
certificate need not indicate the countries of origin of the diamonds; however,
the country-of-origin field on the certificate must be filled in with asterisks.
In addition, the shipment still must comply with all other country-of-origin
reporting requirements.

For an inbound shipment of rough diamonds, the ultimate consignee must report
receipt of the shipment to the relevant foreign exporting authority within 15
calendar days of the date that the shipment arrived at a U.S. port of entry. The
report must refer to the relevant Kimberley Process Certificate by its unique
identifying number; specify the number of parcels in the shipment and the total
carat weight; and identify the importer and exporter. To obtain the required
validation of the Kimberley Process Certificate for an exportation of rough
diamonds from the United States to any Participant (including Canada), U.S.
exporters must file transaction-specific information through the Automated
Export System ("AES") maintained by the Bureau of the Census, which is the
exporting authority for the United States. Validation of the Kimberley Process
Certificate occurs when the AES confirms the submission of export information by
the return of an Internal Transaction Number, which the exporter is required to
report on the Kimberley Process Certificate.

PENALTIES - The Clean Diamond Trade Act provides for criminal penalties of
$50,000 per count for corporations and individuals and/or twenty years
imprisonment
for individuals.  Civil penalties of up to $50,000 per violation may be imposed
on any person who violates, or attempts to violate, any order or regulation
issued under the Act.  In addition, those customs laws of the United States,
both civil and criminal, including those laws relating to seizure and
forfeiture, that apply to articles imported in violation of such laws apply with
respect to rough diamonds imported in violation of the Act.

Moreover, 18 U.S.C. 3571 provides that organizations or individuals convicted of
violating a criminal statute may be fined the greater of the amount specified in
the statute, or twice the pecuniary gain or loss from the violation, or $500,000
for felonies and that individuals may be fined $250,000 for felonies. Finally,
18 U.S.C. 1001 provides for five years' imprisonment and a $10,000 criminal fine
for knowingly making false statements or falsifying or concealing material facts
with respect to any matter within the jurisdiction of the executive,
legislative, or judicial branch of the Government of the United States.

This is the Executive Order with respect to Diamond Trading:

EXECUTIVE ORDER 13312 IMPLEMENTING THE CLEAN DIAMOND TRADE ACT

  "By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws
of the United States of America, including the Clean Diamond Trade Act (Public
Law 108-19) ('the Act'), the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, as
amended (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.), the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601
et seq.), section 5 of the United Nations Participation Act, as amended (22
U.S.C. 287c), and section 301 of title 3, United States Code, and in view of
the national emergency described and declared in Executive Order 13194 of
January 18, 2001, and expanded in scope in Executive Order 13213 of May 22,
2001,

         I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America,
note that, in response to the role played by the illicit trade in diamonds in
fueling conflict and human rights violations in Sierra Leone, the President
declared a national emergency in Executive Order 13194 and imposed
restrictions on the importation of rough diamonds into the United States from
Sierra Leone.  I expanded the scope of that emergency in Executive Order 13213
and prohibited absolutely the importation of rough diamonds from Liberia.  I
further note that representatives of the United States and numerous other
countries announced in the Interlaken Declaration of November 5, 2002, the
launch of the Kimberley Process Certification Scheme ('KPCS') for rough
diamonds, under which Participants prohibit the importation of rough diamonds
from, or the exportation of rough diamonds to, a non-Participant and require
that shipments of rough diamonds from or to a Participant be controlled
through the KPCS. The Clean Diamond Trade Act authorizes the President to take
steps to implement the KPCS.  Therefore, in order to implement the Act, to
harmonize Executive Orders 13194 and 13213 with the Act, to address further
threats to international peace and security posed by the trade in conflict
diamonds, and to avoid undermining the legitimate diamond trade, it is hereby
ordered as follows:

  Section 1.  Prohibitions.  Notwithstanding the existence of any rights or
obligations conferred or imposed by any contract entered into or any license
or permit granted prior to July 30, 2003, the following are, except to the
extent a waiver issued under section 4(b) of the Act applies, prohibited:
(a) the importation into, or exportation from, the United States on or after
July 30, 2003, of any rough diamond, from whatever source, unless the rough
diamond has been controlled through the KPCS;
(b) any transaction by a United States person anywhere, or any transaction
that occurs in whole or in part within the United States, that evades or avoids,
or has the purpose of evading or avoiding, or attempts to violate, any of the
prohibitions set forth in this section; and
(c) any conspiracy formed to violate any of the prohibitions of this section.

  Sec. 2.  Assignment of Functions.
(a)  The functions of the President under the Act are assigned as follows:

(i)  sections 4(b), 5(c), 6(b), 11, and 12 to the Secretary of State; and
(ii) sections 5(a) and 5(b) to the Secretary of the Treasury.

(b)  The Secretary of State and the Secretary of the Treasury may reassign
any of these functions to other officers, officials, departments, and agencies
within the executive  branch, consistent with applicable law.
(c)  In performing the function of the President under section 11 of the Act,
the Secretary of State shall establish the coordinating committee as part of
the Department of State for administrative purposes only, and shall, consistent
with applicable law, provide administrative support to the coordinating
committee. In the performance of functions assigned by subsection 2(a) of
this order or by the Act, the Secretary of State, the Secretary of the
Treasury, and the Secretary of Homeland Security shall consult the coordinating
committee, as appropriate.

  Sec. 3.  Amendments to Related Executive Orders.
(a)  Section 1 of Executive Order 13194 of January 18, 2001, is revised to read
as follows:
'Section 1.  Except to the extent provided by section 2 of this order, and
notwithstanding the existence of any rights or obligations conferred or
imposed by any contract entered into or any license or permit granted prior to
the effective date of this order, the importation into, or exportation from,
the United States of any rough diamond from Sierra Leone, on or after July 30,
2003, is prohibited.'
(b)Section 2 of Executive Order 13194 is revised to read  as follows:  'Sec. 2.
The prohibitions in section 1 of this order shall not apply to the importation
or exportation of any rough diamond that has been controlled through the
Kimberley Process Certification Scheme.'
(c) Sections  4(c), (d), and (e) of Executive Order 13194 are deleted, and the
word 'and' is added after the semicolon at the end of section 4(a).
(d) Section 1 of Executive Order 13213 of May 22, 2001, is revised to read as
follows:
'Section  1.  Notwithstanding the existence of any rights or obligations
conferred or  imposed by any contract entered into or any license or permit
granted prior to the effective date of this order, the direct or indirect
importation into the United States of all rough diamonds from Liberia, whether
or not such diamonds originated in Liberia, on or after July 30, 2003, is

   Sec. 6. Effective Date and Transmittal.  (a)  Sections 1 and 3 of this order
are effective at 12:01 a.m. eastern daylight time on July 30, 2003.  The
remaining provisions of this order are effective immediately.    (b) This

Register."


L- FORMER LIBERIAN REGIME OF CHARLES TAYLOR
 
INTRODUCTION
On May 23, 2007, the Department of the Treasury's Office of
Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC") issued the Former Liberian Regime of Charles
Taylor Sanctions Regulations, 31 C.F.R. part 593 (the "Regulations"), to
implement Executive Order 13348 of July 22, 2004 ("E.O. 13348").  The sanctions
set forth in E.O. 13348 and implemented in the Regulations are targeted
sanctions directed at the regime of former President Charles Taylor.  The
sanctions are not directed against the country of Liberia, the Government of
Liberia, or the Central Bank of Liberia.  They do not prohibit the provision of
banking services to Liberia, including the maintenance of correspondent banking
relationships with Liberian banks, unless the bank in question is a person whose
property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to the Regulations.

The President issued E.O. 13348 based in part on the authority of the
International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701-1706) ("IEEPA") and
section 5 of the United Nations Participation Act (22 U.S.C. 287c) ("UNPA").
E.O. 13348 noted United Nations Security Council Resolutions 1521 of December
22, 2003, and 1532 of March 12, 2004, which, among other things, called on
member states to impose an asset freeze on certain senior members of former
Liberian President Charles Taylor's government and certain other persons and to
prevent the import into their territories of all rough diamonds, round logs, and
timber products originating in Liberia.  In E.O. 13348, the President declared a
national emergency based on the unusual and extraordinary threat to the foreign
policy of the United States posed by the actions and policies of former Liberian
President Charles Taylor.  To deal with that threat, the order blocked all
property and interests in property of senior members of the former Charles
Taylor regime, immediate family members of Charles Taylor, and certain other
persons, and prohibited the importation into the United States of all round logs
or timber products.

This fact sheet provides general information about the Regulations as
implemented and administered by OFAC.

Prohibited Transactions - Section 593.201 of the Regulations blocks the property
and interests in property  in the United States, or in the possession or control
of United States persons, of the persons listed in the Annex to E.O. 13348, as
well as of any person determined by the Secretary of the Treasury, after
consultation with the Secretary of State:

	-to be or have been an immediate family member of Charles Taylor;
	
	-to have been a senior official of the former Liberian regime headed by
	Charles Taylor or otherwise to have been or be a close ally or associate
of
	Charles Taylor or the former Liberian regime;
	
	-to have materially assisted, sponsored, or provided financial,
material,
	or technological support for, or goods or services in support of, the
unlawful
	depletion of Liberian resources, the removal of Liberian resources from
that
	country, and the secreting of Liberian funds and property by any person
whose
	property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to  593.201(a)
of the
	Regulations; or
	
	-to be owned or controlled by, or acting or purporting to act for or on
	behalf of, directly or indirectly, any person whose property and
interests in
	property are blocked pursuant to  593.201(a) of the Regulations.

Any person or entity referenced in the Annex or determined by the Secretary of
the Treasury to meet one or more of the criteria listed above (collectively,
"Specially Designated Nationals" or "SDNs") will be incorporated into OFAC's
List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons ("SDN List") using
the descriptor [LIBERIA].  The SDN List is available at
http://www.treas.gov/offices/enforcement/ofac/sdn/index.shtml.

The Regulations not only block all property of these SDNs that is in the United
States or in the possession of U.S. persons, but it also prohibits U.S. persons
from engaging in any transaction involving these SDNs, unless otherwise
authorized by OFAC.  Examples of prohibited transactions include importing,
exporting, brokering, financing, and providing other financial services.  In
addition, the Regulations prohibit any attempts by a U.S. person to evade or
avoid these sanctions.

As of April 2007, a total of 61 persons have been named as SDNs pursuant to E.O.
13348: 28 individuals were listed in the Annex to the order, and OFAC designated
an additional 34 entities and individuals on April 26, 2005.  In June 2006, one
individual was removed from the list, bringing the total to 61.

IMPORTATION OF ROUND LOGS OR TIMEBER PRODUCTS
Section 2 of E.O. 13348 prohibits the  direct or indirect importation into the
United States of any round log or timber  product originating in Liberia, and
OFAC has implemented this prohibition in   593.205 of the Regulations.
However,in Resolution 1689 of June 20, 2006,  the United Nations Security
Council decided to lift the multilateral prohibition  on importation of round
logs or timber products set forth in paragraph 10 of  Resolution 1521.  In
accordance with the decision of the Security Council in  Resolution 1689, OFAC
issued  593.510, a general license authorizing all  importations into the
United States of round logs and timber products originating  in Liberia.
Therefore, provided that the importation does not involve any person  whose
property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to  593.201 of the
Regulations, the importation into the United States of rough logs or timber
products  originating in Liberia is authorized.

IMPORTATION OF ROUGH DIAMONDS
In Executive Order 13312 of July 29, 2003, pursuant to, inter alia, the Clean
Diamond Trade Act (Pub. L. 108-19), IEEPA, and the UNPA, the President
prohibited the importation into, or exportation from, the United States of any
rough diamond, unless the rough diamond has been controlled through the
Kimberley Process Certification Scheme ("KPCS").  OFAC implemented the
provisions of Executive Order 13312 in the Rough Diamonds Control Regulations,
31 C.F.R. part 592, which now control all imports of rough diamonds, from any
country.

As of May 3, 2007, Liberia is a participant in the Kimberley Process.  At such
time as the Secretary of State publishes a notice in the Federal Register that
Liberia has become a Kimberley Process participant, rough diamond imports from
Liberia will be permitted, provided they are made in compliance with the KPCS
and the Rough Diamonds Controls Regulations.

PENALITIES
Criminal fines for violating the Regulations range, upon conviction, up to
$500,000 for an entity and $250,000 for an individual; individuals may also face
imprisonment of up to 20 years.  In addition, civil penalties of up to $50,000
per violation may be imposed administratively.



M- THE BALKANS

Executive Order blocking property of persons who threaten international
stabilization efforts in the Western Balkans:

Executive Order 13219 was issued effective 12:01 a.m. eastern daylight time on
June 27, 2001:

"By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of
the United States of America, including the International Emergency Economic
Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.)(IEEPA), the National Emergencies Act (50
U.S.C. 1601 et seq.), and section 301 of title 3, United States Code,

I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, have determined
that the actions of persons engaged in, or assisting, sponsoring, or supporting,
(i) extremist violence  in the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, in
southern Serbia, the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, and elsewhere in the
Western Balkans region, or (ii) acts obstructing the implementation of the
Dayton Accords in Bosnia or United Nations Security Council Resolution 1244 of
June 10, 1999 in Kosovo, threaten the peace in or diminish the security and
stability of those areas and the wider region, undermine the authority, efforts,
and objectives of the United Nations, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization
(NATO), and other international organizations and entities present in those
areas and the wider region, and endanger the safety of persons participating in
or providing support to the activities of those organizations and entities,
including United States military forces and government officials.  I find that
such actions constitute an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national
security and foreign policy of the United States, and hereby declare a national
emergency to deal with that threat.

I hereby order:

Section 1. (a) Except to the extent provided in section 203(b)(1), (3), and (4)
of IEEPA (50 U. S. C. 1702(b)(1), (3), and (4)), the Trade Sanctions Reform and
Export Enhancement Act of 2000 (Title IX, Pub. L. No. 106-387), and in
regulations, orders, directives, or licenses that may hereafter be issued
pursuant to this order, and notwithstanding any contract entered into or any
license or permit granted prior to the effective date, all property and
interests in property of:

(i) the persons listed in the Annex to this order; and

(ii) persons designated by the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with
the Secretary of State, because they are found:

(A)  to have committed, or to pose a significant risk of committing, acts of
violence that have the purpose or effect of threatening the peace in or
diminishing the stability or security of any area or state in the Western
Balkans region, undermining the authority, efforts, or objectives of
international organizations or entities present in the region, or endangering
the safety of persons participating in or providing support to the activities of
those international organizations or entities, or

(B)  to have actively obstructed, or to pose a significant risk of actively
obstructing, implementation of the Dayton Accords in Bosnia or United Nations
Security Council Resolution 1244 in Kosovo, or

(C)  materially to assist in, sponsor, or provide financial or technological
support for, or goods or services in support of, such acts of violence or
obstructionism, or

(D)  to be owned or controlled by, or acting or purporting to act directly or
indirectly for or on behalf of, any of the foregoing persons,

that are or hereafter come within the United States, or that are or hereafter
come within the possession or control of United States persons, are blocked and
may not be transferred, paid, exported, withdrawn, or otherwise dealt in.

(b)  I hereby determine that the making of donations of the type specified in
section 203(b)(2) of IEEPA (50 U.S.C. 1702(b)(2)) by United States persons to
persons designated in or pursuant to paragraph (a) of this section would
seriously impair my ability to deal with the national emergency declared in this
order. Accordingly, the blocking of property and interests in property pursuant
to paragraph (a) of this section includes, but is not limited to, the
prohibition of the making by a United States person of any such donation to any
such designated person, except as otherwise authorized by the Secretary of the
Treasury.

(c) The blocking of property and property interests in or pursuant to paragraph
(a) of this section includes, but is not limited to, the prohibition of the
making or receiving by a United States person of any contribution or provision
of funds, goods, or services to or for the benefit of a person designated in or
pursuant to paragraph (a) of this section.

Sec. 2. Any transaction by a United States person that evades or avoids, or has
the purpose of evading or avoiding, or attempts to violate, any of the
prohibitions set forth in this order is prohibited.  Any conspiracy formed to
violate the prohibitions of this order is prohibited.

Sec. 3. For the purposes of this order:

(a) The term "person" means an individual or entity;

(b) The term "entity" means a partnership, association, trust, joint venture,
corporation, group, subgroup, or other organization; and

(c) The term "United States person" means any United States citizen, permanent
resident alien, entity organized under the laws of the United States or any
jurisdiction within the United States (including foreign branches), or any
person in the United States.

See. 4. The Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of
State, is hereby authorized to take such actions, including the promulgation of
rules and regulations, and to employ all powers granted to the President by
IEEPA, as may be necessary to carry out the purposes of this order. The
Secretary of the Treasury may redelegate any of these functions to other
officers and agencies of the United States Government. All agencies of the
United States Government are hereby directed to take all appropriate measures
within their authority to carry out the provisions of this order and, where
appropriate, to advise the Secretary of the Treasury in a timely manner of the
measures taken.

Sec. 5. This order is not intended to create, nor does it create, any right,
benefit, or privilege, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law by a party
against the United States, its agencies, officers, or any other person.

Sec. 6. (a) This order is effective at 12:01 a.m. eastern daylight time on June
27, 2001;

        (b) This order shall be transmitted to the Congress and published in the 
Federal Register."


Executive Order 13304 - Termination of Emergencies With Respect to Yugoslavia
and Modification of Executive Order 13219

   "By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws
of the United States of America, including the International Emergency
Economic Powers Act, as amended (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.) (IEEPA), the
National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.) (NEA), section 5 of the
United Nations Participation Act of 1945, as amended (22 U.S.C. 287c)(UNPA),
and section 301 of title 3, United States Code,

   I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, have determined
that the situations that gave rise to the declarations of national
emergencies in Executive Order 12808 of May 30, 1992, and Executive Order
13088 of June 9, 1998, with respect to the former Socialist Federal Republic
of Yugoslavia, have been significantly altered by the peaceful transition to
democracy and other positive developments in Serbia and Montenegro (formerly
the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (Serbia and Montenegro)).  Accordingly, I
hereby terminate the national emergencies declared in those orders and revoke
those and all related orders (Executive Orders 12810 of June 5, 1992, 12831
of January 15, 1993, 12846 of April 25, 1993, 12934 of October 25, 1994,
13121 of April 30, 1999, and 13192 of January 17, 2001).  At the same time,
and in order to take additional steps with respect to continuing, widespread,
and illicit actions that obstruct implementation of the Ohrid Framework
Agreement of 2001, relating to Macedonia, United Nations Security Council
Resolution 1244 of June 10, 1999, relating to Kosovo, or the Dayton Accords
or the Conclusions of the Peace Implementation Conference Council held in
London on December 8-9, 1995, including the decisions or conclusions of the
High Representative, the Peace Implementation Council or its Steering Board,
relating to Bosnia and Herzegovina, including the harboring of individuals
indicted by the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia,
and the national emergency described and declared in Executive Order 13219 of
June 26, 2001, I hereby order:

Section 1.  Pursuant to section 202 of the NEA (50 U.S.C. 1622), termination of
the national emergencies declared in Executive Order 12808 of May 30, 1992, and
Executive Order 13088 of June 9, 1998, shall not affect any action taken or
proceeding pending not finally concluded or determined as of the effective date
of this order, or any action or proceeding based on any act committed prior to
such date, or any rights or duties that matured or penalties that were incurred
prior to such date.  Pursuant to section 207 of IEEPA (50 U.S.C. 1706), I hereby
determine that the continuation of prohibitions with regard to transactions
involving any property blocked pursuant to Executive Orders 12808 or 13088 that
continues to be blocked as of the effective date of this order is necessary on
account of claims involving successor states to the former Socialist Federal
Republic of Yugoslavia or other potential claimants.

Sec. 2.  The Annex to Executive Order 13219 of June 26, 2001, is replaced and
superseded in its entirety by the Annex to this order.

Sec. 3.  (a) Section 1(a) and 1(b) of Executive Order 13219 are revised to read
as follows:'Section 1.  (a) Except to the extent provided in section 203(b)(1),
(3), and (4) of IEEPA (50 U.S.C. 1702(b)(1), (3), and (4)), and the Trade
Sanctions Reform and Export Enhancement Act of 2000 (Title IX, Public Law 106-
387), and in regulations, orders, directives, or licenses that may hereafter be
issued pursuant to this order, and notwithstanding any contract entered into or
any license or permit granted prior to the effective date of this order, all
property and interests in property of:    (i) the persons listed in the Annex to
this order; and (ii) persons designated by the Secretary of the Treasury, in
consultation with the Secretary of State, because they are determined:    (A) to
be under open indictment by the International Criminal Tribunal for the former
Yugoslavia, unless circumstances warrant otherwise, or    (B) to have committed,
or to pose a significant risk of committing, acts of violence that have the
purpose or effect of threatening the peace in or diminishing the stability or
security of any area or state in the Western Balkans region, undermining the
authority, efforts, or objectives of international organizations or entities
present in the region, or endangering the safety of persons participating in or
providing support to the activities of those international organizations or
entities, or    (C) to have actively obstructed, or pose a significant risk of
actively obstructing, the Ohrid Framework Agreement of 2001 relating to
Macedonia, United Nations Security Council Resolution 1244 relating to Kosovo,
or the Dayton Accords or the Conclusions of the Peace Implementation Conference
held in London on December 8-9, 1995, including the decisions or conclusions of
the High Representative, the Peace Implementation Council or its Steering Board,
relating to Bosnia and Herzegovina, or    (D) to have materially assisted in,
sponsored, or provided financial, material, or technological support for, or
goods or services in support of, such acts of violence or obstructionism or any
person listed in or designated pursuant to this order, or (E) to be owned or
controlled by, or acting or purporting to act directly or indirectly for or on
behalf of, any person listed in or designated pursuant to this order,  that are
or hereafter come within the United States, or that are or hereafter come within
the possession or control of United States persons, are blocked and may not be
transferred, paid, exported, withdrawn, or otherwise dealt in.    (b) I hereby
determine that the making of donations of the type specified in section
203(b)(2) of IEEPA (50 U.S.C. 1702(b)(2)) by or to persons determined to be
subject to the sanctions imposed under this order would seriously impair the
ability to deal with the national emergency declared in this order, and hereby
prohibit such donations as provided in paragraph (a) of this section.'

   Sec. 4.  New sections 7 and 8 are added to Executive Order 13219 to read as
follows:     'Sec. 7.  For those persons listed in the Annex to this order or
determined to be subject to the sanctions imposed under this order who might
have a constitutional presence in the United States, I have determined that,
because of the ability to transfer funds or assets instantaneously, prior
notice to such persons of measures to be taken pursuant to this order would
render these measures ineffectual.  I therefore determine that for these
measures to be effective in addressing the national emergency declared in
this order, there need be no prior notice of a listing or determination made
pursuant to this order.    Sec. 8. The Secretary of the Treasury, in
consultation with the Secretary of State, is authorized to determine,
subsequent to the issuance of this order, that circumstances no longer
warrant inclusion of a person in the Annex to this order and that such person
is therefore no longer covered within the scope of the sanctions set forth
herein.  Such a determination shall become effective upon publication in the
Federal Register.'

   Sec. 5.  The Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of
State, is hereby authorized to take such actions, including the promulgation
of rules and regulations, and to employ all powers granted to me by IEEPA and
UNPA, as may be necessary to carry out the purposes of this order.  The
Secretary of the Treasury may redelegate any of these functions to other
officers and agencies of the United States Government.  All agencies of the
United States Government are hereby directed to take all appropriate measures
within their authority to carry out the provisions of this order and, where
appropriate, to advise the Secretary of the Treasury in a timely manner of
the measures taken.

   Sec. 6.  Nothing contained in this order shall create any right or benefit or
privilege, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity by any
party against the United States, its agencies or instrumentalities, its
officers or employees, or any other person.

   Sec. 7.  This order is effective at 12:01 a.m. eastern daylight time on May
29, 2003.  This order shall be transmitted to Congress and published in the
Federal Register."

N- ZIMBABWE

INTRODUCTION - On March 7, 2003, as a result of actions and policies by certain
members of the government of Zimbabwe, and its supporters to undermine
democratic institutions and processes in Zimbabwe, President Bush issued
Executive Order 13288 imposing sanctions against specifically identified
individuals and entities in Zimbabwe.  On November 23, 2005, the President
issued a new Executive Order superseding E.O. 13288.  The new Executive Order
(E.O. 13391)expands the list of sanctions targets to include immediate family
members of any designated individual of the Zimbabwe sanctions, as well as those
persons providing assistance to any sanctions target. Providing statutory
authority for these sanctions is the International Emergency Economic Powers Act
("IEEPA"), the National Emergencies Act and sections 301 of title 3 of the
United
States Code.

This fact sheet provides general information about the Zimbabwe sanctions
program imposed by the new Executive Order and administered by the U.S. Treasury
Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC").

PROHIBITED TRANSACTIONS - Executive Order 13391 prohibits U.S. persons,
wherever located, or anyone in the United States from engaging in any
transactions with any person, entity or organization found to: 1.) be
undermining democratic institutions and processes in Zimbabwe; 2.) have
materially assisted, sponsored, or provided financial, material, or
technological support to these entities; 3.) be or have been an immediate family
member of a sanctions target; or 4.) be owned, controlled or acting on behalf of
a sanctions target.  Persons, entities and organizations referenced in Annex A
of the Executive Order are all incorporated into OFAC's list of Specially
Designated Nationals (SDNs).  Prohibited transactions include, but are not
limited to, exports (direct and indirect), imports (direct and indirect), trade
brokering, financing and facilitation, as well as most financial transactions.
Attempts to evade or avoid these sanctions are also prohibited.  These
prohibitions also extend to any person, organization or entity found to be
owned, controlled or acting on behalf of any Zimbabwe entity included on the SDN
list.

Under the Executive Order, U.S. persons are also required to block any property
of any Zimbabwe Specially Designated Nationals that is in the United States,
that comes into the United States, or that comes under the control of a U.S.
person wherever located.  The term property includes, but is not limited to,
money, checks, drafts, bank accounts, securities and other financial
instruments, letters of credit, bills of sales, bills of lading and other
evidences of title, wire transfers, merchandise and goods.  Blockable property
also includes any property in which there is any interest of a Zimbabwe SDN,
including direct, indirect, future or contingent, and tangible or intangible
interests.

Foreign branches and representative offices of U.S. companies, as well as U.S.
branches and representative offices of foreign companies are considered U.S.
persons for purposes of these prohibitions.

Transactions that do not involve any of the Zimbabwe SDNs, or any person or
entity believed to be owned, controlled or acting on behalf of a Zimbabwe SDN
are not prohibited by the new Executive Order.

Criminal fines for violating the Executive Order or regulations to be issued

and in order to take additional steps with respect to the continued actions and
policies of certain persons who undermine Zimbabwe's democratic processes and
with respect to the national emergency described and declared in Executive Order
13288 of March 6, 2003,

I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, hereby order:

Section 1.  The Annex to Executive Order 13288 of March 6, 2003, is
replaced and superseded in its entirety by the Annex to this order.

Sec. 2.  Section 6 of Executive Order 13288 is renumbered as section 8.
Sections 1 through 5 of Executive Order 13288 are replaced with new sections 1
through 7 as follows:

	"Section 1.  (a) Except to the extent provided in section 203(b)(1),
(3), and (4) of IEEPA (50 U.S.C. 1702(b)(1), (3), and (4)), and in regulations,
orders, directives, or licenses that may be issued pursuant to this order, and
notwithstanding any contract entered into or any license or permit granted prior
to the effective date of this order, all property and interests in property of
the following persons, that are in the United States, that hereafter come within
the United States, or that are or hereafter come within the possession or
control of United States persons, including their overseas branches, are blocked
and may not be transferred, paid, exported, withdrawn, or otherwise dealt in:

	(i) the persons listed in the Annex to this order; and
	
	(ii) any person determined by the Secretary of the Treasury, in
	consultation with the Secretary of State:

	(A) to have engaged in actions or policies to undermine Zimbabwe's
	democratic processes or institutions;

	(B) to have materially assisted, sponsored, or provided financial,
	material, or technological support for, or goods or services in support
	of, such actions or policies or any person whose property and interests
	in property are blocked pursuant to this order;
	
	(C) to be or have been an immediate family member of any person whose
	property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to this order;
	or

	(D) to be owned or controlled by, or acting or purporting to act for or
	on behalf of, directly or indirectly, any person whose property and
	interests in property are blocked pursuant to this order.

	(b) I hereby determine that the making of donations of the type of
articles specified in section 203(b)(2) of IEEPA (50 U.S.C. 1702(b)(2)) by, to,
or for the benefit of any person whose property and interests in property are
blocked pursuant to paragraph (a) of this section would seriously impair my
ability to deal with the national emergency declared in this order, and I hereby
prohibit such donations as provided by paragraph (a) of this section.

	(c) The prohibitions in paragraph (a) of this section include but are
not limited to (i) the making of any contribution or provision of funds, goods,
or services by, to, or for the benefit of any person whose property and
interests in property are blocked pursuant to this order, and (ii) the receipt
of any contribution or provision of funds, goods, or services from any such
person.

	Sec. 2.  (a) Any transaction by a United States person or within the
United States that evades or avoids, has the purpose of evading or avoiding, or
attempts to violate any of the prohibitions set forth in this order is
prohibited.

(b) Any conspiracy formed to violate any of the prohibitions set forth in this
order is prohibited.

	Sec. 3.  For the purposes of this order:

(a) the term "person" means an individual or entity;

(b) the term "entity" means a partnership, association, trust, joint venture,
corporation, group, subgroup, or other organization; and

(c) the term "United States person" means any United States citizen, permanent
resident alien, entity organized under the laws of the United States or any
jurisdiction within the United States (including foreign branches), or any
person in the United States.

	Sec. 4.  For those persons whose property and interests in property are
blocked pursuant to this order who might have a constitutional presence in the
United States, I find that, because of the ability to transfer funds or other
assets instantaneously, prior notice to such persons of measures to be taken
pursuant to this order would render these measures ineffectual.  I therefore
determine that, for these measures to be effective in addressing the national
emergency declared in this order, there need be no prior notice of a listing or
determination made pursuant to section 1(a) of this order.

	Sec. 5.  The Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the
Secretary of State, is hereby authorized to take such actions, including the
promulgation of rules and regulations, and to employ all powers granted to the
President by IEEPA, as may be necessary to carry out the purposes of this order.
The Secretary of the Treasury may redelegate any of these functions to other
officers and agencies of the United States Government, consistent with
applicable law.  All agencies of the United States Government are hereby
directed to take all appropriate measures within their authority to carry out
the provisions of this order and, where appropriate, to advise the Secretary of
the Treasury in a timely manner of the measures taken.

	Sec. 6.  The Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the
Secretary of State, is hereby authorized to determine, subsequent to the
issuance of this order, that circumstances no longer warrant the inclusion of
a person in the Annex to this order and that the property and interests in
property of that person are therefore no longer blocked pursuant to section 1(a)
of this order.

	Sec. 7.  This order is not intended to create, nor does it create, any
right, benefit, or privilege, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or
in equity by any party against the United States, its departments, agencies,
instrumentalities, or entities, its officers or employees, or any other person."

Sec. 3.  This order is not intended to create, nor does it create, any right,
benefit, or privilege, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in
equity by any party against the United States, its departments, agencies,
instrumentalities, or entities, its officers or employees, or any other person.

Sec. 4.  This order shall take effect at 12:01 a.m. eastern daylight time,
November 23, 2005.

Sec. 5.  This order shall be transmitted to the Congress and published in the
Federal Register.

item subject to the export licensing jurisdiction of any other United
States Government agency.

     Sec. 7.  With respect to the prohibitions contained in section 1 of this
order, consistent with subsection 5(b) of the SAA, I hereby determine that
it is in the national security interest of the United States to waive, and
hereby waive application of subsection 5(a)(1) and subsection 5(a)(2)(A) of
the SAA so as to permit the exportation or reexportation of certain items
as specified in the Department of Commerce's General Order No. 2 to
Supplement No. 1, 15 C.F.R. part 736, as issued consistent with this order
and as may be amended pursuant to the provisions of this order and in a
manner consistent with the SAA.  This waiver is made pursuant to the SAA
only to the extent that regulation of such exports or reexports would not
otherwise fall within my constitutional authority to conduct the Nation's
foreign affairs and protect national security.

     Sec. 8.  With respect to the prohibitions contained in section 2 of this

redelegate any of these functions to other officers and agencies of the
United States Government consistent with applicable law.  The Secretary of
State, in consultation with the Secretaries of Commerce, Transportation and
the Treasury, as appropriate, is authorized to exercise the functions and

person.

     Sec. 11.  For those persons whose property or interests in property are
blocked pursuant to section 3 of this order who might have a constitutional
presence in the United States, I find that because of the ability to
transfer funds or assets instantaneously, prior notice to such persons of
measures to be taken pursuant to this order would render these measures
ineffectual.  I therefore determine that for these measures to be effective
in addressing the national emergency declared in this order, there need be
no prior notice of a listing or determination made pursuant to this order.

P. CTE D'IVOIRE.

EXECUTIVE ORDER - Blocking Property of Certain Persons Contributing to the
Conflict in Cte d'Ivoire

INTRODUCTION - On February 08, 2006, President Bush issued a new Executive Order
declaring a national emergency to deal with the unusual and extraordinary threat
to the foreign policy of the United States posed by the conflict in Cte
d'Ivoire. Despite the intervention and effort of the international community,
numerous violations of human rights and international humanitarian law have been
perpetrated against civilians during the ongoing political crisis in Cte
d'Ivoire.  The United Nations Security Council, expressing deep concern about
the hostilities and the repeated violations of the May 3, 2003 ceasefire
agreement, issued Resolution 1572.  It determined that the situation in Cte
d'Ivoire poses a threat to international peace and security in the region and
called on member states to take certain measures against those responsible.  The
new Executive Order blocks the property of persons contributing to the political
and social unrest in Cte d'Ivoire.  Providing statutory authority for these
sanctions is the International Emergency Economic Powers Act ("IEEPA"), the
National Emergencies Act and sections 301 of title 3 of the United States Code.

This fact sheet provides general information about the Cte d'Ivoire sanctions
program imposed by the new Executive Order and administered by the U.S. Treasury
Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC").

PROHIBITED TRANSACTIONS - The new Executive Order prohibits U.S. persons,
wherever located, or anyone in the United States from engaging in any
transactions with any person, entity or organization found to: 1) constitute a
threat to the peace and reconciliation process in Cte d'Ivoire; 2) be in
serious violation of International law in Cte d'Ivoire; 3) have directly or
indirectly supplied, sold or transferred to Cte d'Ivoire arms or assistance,
advice or training related to military activities; 4) to have publicly incited
violence and hatred contributing to the conflict;  5) to have provided material,
financial or technical assistance to those qualified above or to any person
designated pursuant to this order.  Persons, entities and organizations
referenced in Annex A of the Executive Order are all incorporated into OFAC's
list of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons using the descriptor
[COTED].  Prohibited transactions include, but are not limited to, exports
(direct and indirect), imports (direct and indirect), trade brokering, financing
and facilitation, as well as financial transactions.  Attempts by a U.S. person,
or persons within the U.S. to evade or avoid these sanctions are also
prohibited.

Under the Executive Order, U.S. persons are required to block any property of
any Cte d'Ivoire  Specially Designated Nationals that is in the United States,
that comes into the United States, or that comes under the control of a U.S.
person wherever located.  The term property includes, but is not limited to,
money, checks, drafts, bank accounts, securities and other financial
instruments, letters of credit, bills of sales, bills of lading and other
evidences of title, wire transfers, merchandise and goods.  Blockable property
also includes any property in which there is any interest of a Cte d'Ivoire
SDNs, including direct, indirect, future or contingent, and tangible or
intangible interests.

Foreign branches and representative offices of U.S. companies, as well as U.S.
branches and representative offices of foreign companies are considered U.S.
persons for purposes of these prohibitions.

Transactions that do not involve any of the Cte d'Ivoire SDNs, or any person or
entity believed to be owned, controlled or acting on behalf of a Cte d'Ivoire
SDNs are not prohibited by the new Executive Order.

PENALTIES - Criminal fines for violating the Executive Order or regulations to
be issued pursuant to the Executive Order range up to the greater of $500,000 or
twice the pecuniary gain per violation for an organization, or up to the greater
of
$250,000 or twice the pecuniary gain per violation for an individual.
Individuals may also be imprisoned for up to 20 years for a criminal violation.
Knowingly making false statements or falsifying or concealing material facts
when dealing with OFAC in connection with matters under its jurisdiction is a
criminal offense.  In addition, civil penalties of up to $50,000 per violation
may be imposed administratively.

Executive Order issued effective 12:01 EST on February 08, 2006:


BLOCKING PROPERTY OF CERTAIN PERSONS CONTRIBUTING TO THE CONFLICT IN
CTE D'IVOIRE

	By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the
laws of the United States of America, including the International Emergency
Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.) (IEEPA), the National Emergencies
Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.) (NEA), section 5 of the United Nations

3, United States Code, and to assist in addressing humanitarian, safety, and
other concerns in or in relation to the country of Cte d'Ivoire,

I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, determine that the
situation in and in relation to Cte d'Ivoire, which has been addressed by the
United Nations Security Council in Resolution 1572 of November 15, 2004 and
subsequent resolutions, and that has resulted in the massacre of large numbers
of civilians, widespread human rights abuses, significant political violence and
unrest, and fatal attacks against international peacekeeping forces, constitutes
an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy
of the United States and hereby declare a national emergency to deal with that
threat, and hereby order:

Section 1. (a) Except to the extent that section 203(b)(1), (3), and (4) of
IEEPA (50 U.S.C. 1702(b)(1), (3), and (4)) may apply, or to the extent provided
in regulations, orders, directives, or licenses that may be issued pursuant to
this order, and notwithstanding any contract entered into or any license or
permit granted prior to the effective date of this order, all property and
interests in property that are in the United States, that hereafter come within

(A) to constitute a threat to the peace and national reconciliation process in
Cte d'Ivoire, such as by blocking the implementation of the Linas-Marcoussis
Agreement of January 24, 2003, the Accra III Agreement of July 30, 2004, and the
Pretoria Agreement of April 6, 2005;

(B) to be responsible for serious violations of international law in Cte
d'Ivoire;

(C) to have directly or indirectly supplied, sold, or transferred to Cte
d'Ivoire arms or any related materiel or  any assistance, advice or training
related to military activities;

(D) to have publicly incited violence and hatred contributing to the conflict in
Cte d'Ivoire;

(E) to have materially assisted, sponsored, or provided financial, material, or
technological support for, or goods or services in support of, the activities
described in paragraphs (a)(ii)(A), (a)(ii)(B), (a)(ii)(C), or (a)(ii)(D) of
this section or any person listed in or designated pursuant to this order; or

(F) to be owned or controlled by, or acting or purporting to act for or on
behalf of, directly or indirectly, any person listed in or designated pursuant
to this order.

(b) I hereby determine that, to the extent section 203(b)(2) of IEEPA (50 U.S.C.
1702(b)(2)) may apply, the making of donations of the type of articles specified
in such section by, to, or for the benefit of, any person listed in or
designated pursuant to this order would seriously impair my ability to deal with
the national emergency declared in this order, and I hereby prohibit such
donations as provided by paragraph (a) of this section.

(c) The prohibitions in paragraph (a) of this section include, but are not
limited to, (i) the making of any contribution or provision of funds, goods, or
services by, to, or for the benefit of, any person listed in or designated
pursuant to this order, and (ii) the receipt of any contribution or provision of
funds, goods, or services from any such person.

Sec. 2. (a) Any transaction by a United States person or within the United
States that evades or avoids, has the purpose of evading or avoiding, or
attempts to violate any of the prohibitions set forth in this order is
prohibited.

(b) Any conspiracy formed to violate any of the prohibitions set forth in this
order is prohibited.

Sec. 3. For purposes of this order:

(a) the term ''entity'' means a partnership, association, trust, joint venture,
corporation, group, subgroup, or other organization;

(b) the term ''person'' means an individual or entity;

(c) the term ''United States person'' means any United States citizen, permanent
resident alien, entity organized under the laws of the United States or any
jurisdiction within the United States (including foreign branches), or any
person in the United States; and

(d) the term "arms or any related materiel" means arms or related materiel of
all types, including military aircraft and equipment, but excludes:

(i) supplies and technical assistance intended solely for the support of or use
by the United Nations Operation in Cte d'Ivoire and forces of France who
support them;

(ii) supplies of non-lethal military equipment intended solely for humanitarian
or protective use, and related technical assistance and training;

associated personnel, for their personal use only;

(iv) supplies temporarily exported to Cte d'Ivoire to the forces of a country
which is taking action, solely and directly to facilitate the evacuation of its
nationals and those for whom it has consular responsibility in Cte d'Ivoire;
and

(v) supplies of arms and related materiel and technical training and assistance
intended solely for support of or use in the process of restructuring defense
and security forces pursuant to paragraph 3, subparagraph (f) of the
Linas-Marcoussis Agreement.

	Sec. 4. For those persons listed in or designated pursuant to this order
who might have a constitutional presence in the United States, I find that
because of the ability to transfer funds or other assets instantaneously, prior
notice to such persons of measures to be taken pursuant to this order would
render these measures ineffectual.  I therefore determine that for these
measures to be effective in addressing the national emergency declared in this
order, there need be no prior notice of a listing or determination made pursuant
to section 1 of this order.

	Sec. 5. The Secretary of the Treasury, after consultation with the

to
other officers and agencies of the United States Government, consistent with
applicable law. All agencies of the United States Government are hereby directed
to take all appropriate measures within their authority to carry out the
provisions of this order and, where appropriate, to advise the Secretary of the

Treasury shall ensure compliance with those provisions of section 401 of the NEA
(50 USC 1641) applicable to the Department of the Treasury in relation to this

Q. BELARUS

Executive Order issued effective 12:01a.m. eastern daylight time on June 19,
2006.

EXECUTIVE ORDER BLOCKING PROPERTY OF CERTAIN PERSONS UNDERMINING DEMOCRATIC
PROCESSES OR INSTITUTIONS IN BELARUS

	By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the
laws of the UnitedStates of America, including the International Emergency
Economic Powers Act (50U.S.C.1701 et seq.)(IEEPA), the National Emergencies
Act (50U.S.C.1601 et seq.)(NEA), and section301 of title3, UnitedStates
Code,

I, GEORGEW. BUSH, President of the UnitedStates of America, determine that the
actions and policies of certain members of the Government of Belarus and other
persons to undermine Belarus democratic processes or institutions, manifested
most recently in the fundamentally undemocratic March 2006 elections, to commit
human rights abuses related to political repression, including detentions and
disappearances, and to engage in public corruption including by diverting or
misusing Belarusian public assets or by misusing public authority, constitute an
unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of
the UnitedStates, hereby declare a national emergency to deal with that threat,
and hereby order:

	Section 1.  (a)  Except to the extent provided in section203(b)(1),
(3), and (4) of IEEPA (50U.S.C. 1702(b)(1), (3), and (4)), or in regulations,
orders, directives, or licenses that may be issued pursuant to this order, and
notwithstanding any contract entered into or any license or permit granted prior
to the effective date of this order, all property and interests in property that
are in the UnitedStates, that hereafter come within the UnitedStates, or that
are or hereafter come within the possession or control of any UnitedStates
person, including any overseas branch, of the following persons are blocked and
may not be transferred, paid, exported, withdrawn, or otherwise dealt in:

	(i)  the persons listed in the Annex to this order; and

	(ii) any person determined by the Secretary of the Treasury, after
	consultation with the Secretary of State:

		(A) to be responsible for, or to have participated in, actions
		or policies that undermine democratic processes or institutions
		in Belarus;

		(B) to be responsible for, or to have participated in, human
		rights abuses related to political repression in Belarus;

		(C) to be a senior-level official, a family member of such an
		official, or a person closely linked to such an official who is
		responsible for or has engaged in public corruption related to
		Belarus;

		(D) to have materially assisted, sponsored, or provided
		financial, material, or technological support for, or goods or
		services in support of, the activities described in paragraph
		(a)(ii)(A) through (C) of this section or any person listed in
		or designated pursuant to this order; or

		(E) to be owned or controlled by, or acting or purporting to act
		for or on behalf of, directly or indirectly, any person listed
in
		or designated pursuant to this order.

(b)  I hereby determine that the making of donations of the type of articles
specified in section203(b)(2) of IEEPA (50U.S.C. 1702(b)(2)) by, to, or for
the benefit of any person listed in or designated pursuant to this order would
seriously impair my ability to deal with the national emergency declared in this
order, and I hereby prohibit such donations as provided by paragraph(a) of this
section.

(c)  The prohibitions in paragraph(a) of this section include, but are not
limited to, (i)the making of any contribution or provision of funds, goods, or
services by, to,orfor the benefit of any person listed in or designated
pursuant to this order, and (ii) the receipt of any contribution or provision of
funds, goods, or services from any such person.

Sec. 2.  (a)  Any transaction by a UnitedStates person or within the
UnitedStates that evades or avoids, has the purpose of evading or avoiding, or
attempts to violate any of the prohibitions set forth in this order is
prohibited.

(b)  Any conspiracy formed to violate any of the prohibitions set forth in this
order is prohibited.

Sec. 3.  For purposes of this order:

(a)  the term person means an individual or entity;

(b)  the term entity means a partnership, association, trust, joint venture,
corporation, group, subgroup, or other organization;

(c)  the term United States person means any UnitedStates citizen, permanent
resident alien, entity organized under thelaws of the UnitedStates or any
jurisdiction within the UnitedStates (including foreign branches), or any
person in theUnitedStates.

Sec. 4.  For those persons listed in or designated pursuant to this order who
might have a constitutional presence in the UnitedStates, I find that because
of the ability to transfer funds or other assets instantaneously, prior notice
to such persons of measures to be taken pursuant to this order would render
these measures ineffectual.  I therefore determine that for these measures to be
effective in addressing the national emergency declared in this order, there
need be no prior notice of a listing or determination made pursuant to section1
of this order.
	
Sec. 5.  The Secretary of the Treasury, after consultation with the Secretary of
State, is hereby authorized to take such actions, including the promulgation of
rules and regulations, and to employ all powers granted to the President by
IEEPA, as may be necessary to carry out the purposes of this order.  The
Secretary of the Treasury may redelegate any of these functions to other
officers and agencies of the UnitedStates Government, consistent with
applicable law.  All executive agencies of the United States Government are
hereby directed to take all appropriate measures within their authority to carry
out the provisions of this order and, where appropriate, to advise the Secretary
of the Treasury in a timely manner of the measures taken.  The Secretary of the
Treasury shall ensure compliance with those provisions of section401 of the NEA
(50U.S.C. 1641) applicable to the Department of the Treasury in relation to
this order.

Sec. 6.  The Secretary of the Treasury, after consultation with the Secretary of
State, is hereby authorized to submit the recurring and final reports to the
Congress on the national emergency declared in this order, consistent with
section401(c) of the NEA (50U.S.C. 1641(c)) and section204(c) of IEEPA
(50U.S.C. 1703(c)).

Sec. 7.  The Secretary of the Treasury, after consultation with the Secretary of
State, is hereby authorized to determine, subsequent to the issuance of this
order, that circumstances no longer warrant the inclusion of a person in the
Annex to this order and that the property and interests in property of that
person are therefore no longer blocked pursuant to section1 of this order.

Sec. 8.  This order is not intended to, and does not, createany right, benefit,
or privilege, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity by any
party against the UnitedStates, its departments, agencies, instrumentalities,
or entities, its officers or employees, or any other person.

Sec. 9.  This order is effective at 12:01a.m. eastern daylight time on June 19,
2006.

VII. Reporting and Procedures

Reporting and Procedures Regulations (31 C.F.R. Part 501)

OFAC has a uniform requirement across all of its sanctions programs that records
be maintained for five years.

Reporting on Blocked and Rejected Items:  Blocking reports must be filed within
10 business days following the date that the blocking occurred.  They must
identify the owner or account party, the property, the property's location, any
existing or new account number or similar reference necessary to identify the
property, actual or estimated value, the date it was blocked, a photocopy of the
payment or transfer instructions (if the blocking involves a payment or transfer
of funds), a confirmation that the payment has been deposited into a new or
existing blocked account which is clearly labeled as such and is established in
the name of, or contains a means of clearly identifying the interest of, the
individual or entity subject to blocking, the name and address of the holder,
and the name and telephone number of a contact person from whom compliance
information can be obtained.

Reports on rejected items must also be filed within 10 business days and must
include the name and address of the transferee financial institution, the date
and amount of the transfer, a photocopy of the payment or transfer instructions
received, the basis for rejection, and the name and telephone number of a
contact person at the transferee financial institution from whom compliance
information can be obtained.

Only the financial institution that blocks or rejects a transaction pursuant to
OFAC sanctions should report to OFAC.  If a financial institution recognizes
that it mistakenly processed a transaction in violation of the sanctions
regulations, it may choose to submit a self-disclosure statement explaining the
reason for the error, but it should not submit a reject or blocking report.

Reject and blocking reports and self-disclosure statements should be clearly
labeled as such, and currently may be submitted either via fax (202/622-2426),
by mail to the Compliance Programs Division, Office of Foreign Assets Control,
U.S. Department of the Treasury, 1500 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, Washington, DC
20220, or via email (including the required documentation, listed above) at
ofacreport@do.treas.gov.  Please do not send duplicate reports by fax, email,
and/or mail.

Annual Reporting on Blocked Property: OFAC requires the filing of a
comprehensive annual report on blocked property held as of June 30.  This report
is due to OFAC by September 30 of each year.  The report must be filed using
Form TDF 90-22.50, which is available on the OFAC website
<<http://www.treas.gov/ofac>>, from OFAC's fax-on- demand service at (202) 622-
0077, or on The Federal Bulletin Board in OFAC's extended electronic information
reading room, the FAC_MISC file library.  Requests to submit the information in
an alternative format or for an extension of the reporting deadline are invited
and will be considered on a case-by-case basis by OFAC.

Reporting on Litigation, Arbitration, and Dispute Resolution Proceedings:  U.S.
persons involved in litigation, arbitration, or other binding alternative
dispute resolution proceedings regarding blocked property must provide notice of
such proceedings to OFAC Chief Counsel, submit copies of all documents
associated with such proceedings within 10 days of their filing to OFAC Chief
Counsel at U.S. Treasury Department, 1500 Pennsylvania Ave., NW - 3123 Annex,
Washington, DC 20220, and fax information about the scheduling of any hearing or
status conference to OFAC Chief Counsel at (202) 622-1911.

Licensing Requests:  License applications are not accepted electronically,
unless specifically authorized. Applications requesting authorization for
proposed activities and transactions may be submitted in letter format. Requests
for the release of already blocked funds must be submitted using form TDF
90-22.54, "Application for the Release of Blocked Funds."  The form, which
requires information regarding the date of the blocking, the financial
institutions involved in the transfer, and the beneficiary and amount of the
transfer, may be obtained from the "Forms" section of the OFAC website:
<<http://www.treas.gov/ofac>> or the OFAC fax-on-demand service (202) 622-0077.

Any person having an interest in a transaction or proposed transaction may file
an application for a license authorizing the transaction.  For individuals who
are U.S. citizens, inclusion of a social security number is recommended but not
required.  For corporations or other entities, the application should include
the principal place of business, the state of incorporation or organization,
and, if a U.S. company, a taxpayer identification number.

All licensing applications should be sent to the Licensing Division, Office of
Foreign Assets Control, 1500 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Treasury Annex,
Washington, D.C. 20220.
