## Background

On September 23, 2001, the President issued Executive Order 13224 (the “Order”) pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, 50 U.S.C. 1701-1706, and the United Nations Participation Act of 1945, 22 U.S.C. 287c, imposing economic sanctions on persons who commit, threaten to commit, or support acts of terrorism. The President identified in the Annex to the Order various individuals and entities as subject to the economic sanctions. The Order authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of State, the Attorney General, and (pursuant to Executive Order 13284) the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, to designate additional persons or entities determined to meet certain criteria set forth in Executive Order 13224.

On September 5, 2003 and on November 10, 2003, two additional individuals were designated by the Secretary of the Treasury. The Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control has determined that these two individuals no longer meet the criteria for designation under the Order and are appropriate for removal from the list of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons.

The removal of these two individuals' names from the list of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons is effective as of Tuesday, October 19, 2010. All property and interests in property of the two individuals that are in or hereafter come within the United States or the possession or control of United States persons are now unblocked.
