emergency to address grave acts of terrorism and threats of terrorism
committed by foreign terrorists, including the September 11, 2001
terrorist attacks in New York, Pennsylvania, and at the Pentagon. The
Order imposes economic sanctions on persons who have committed, pose a

President identified in the Annex to the Order, as amended by Executive
Order 13268 of July 2, 2002, 13 individuals and 16 entities as subject
to the economic sanctions. The Order was further amended by Executive
Order 13284 of January 23, 2003, to reflect the creation of the

policy, or economy of the United States; (3) persons determined by the
Director of OFAC, in consultation with the Departments of State,
Homeland Security and Justice, to be owned or controlled by, or to act

1(d)(i) of the Order; and (4) except as provided in section 5 of the
Order and after such consultation, if any, with foreign authorities as

Treasury, the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security and the
Attorney General, deems appropriate in the exercise of his discretion,

Departments of State, Homeland Security and Justice, to assist in,
