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

terrorism. The President identified in the Annex to the Order, as

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
for or on behalf of those persons listed in the Annex to the Order or

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
the Secretary of State, in consultation with the Secretary of the
Treasury, the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security and the
Attorney General, deems appropriate in the exercise of his discretion,
persons determined by the Director of OFAC, in consultation with the
Departments of State, Homeland Security and Justice, 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

determined to be subject to the Order or to be otherwise associated
with those persons listed in the Annex to the Order or those persons
determined to be subject to subsection 1(b), 1(c), or 1(d)(i) of the
