Summary
General License No. 131 authorizes all transactions prohibited by E.O. 14024 that are ordinarily incident and necessary to the negotiation of and entry into contracts with Public Joint-Stock Company Oil Company Lukoil or any of its affiliates for the sale, disposition, or transfer of Lukoil International GmbH (LIG) or any entity in which LIG owns, directly or indirectly, individually or in the aggregate, a 50 percent or greater interest (LIG Entities), provided that performance of any such contract is made expressly contingent upon separate authorization from OFAC. It also authorizes all transactions prohibited by E.O. 14024 that are ordinarily incident and necessary to the maintenance or wind down of operations, contracts, or other agreements of LIG Entities. Both authorizations run through 12:01 a.m. eastern standard time, December 13, 2025.
Conditions
Any payment, directly or indirectly, to LIG Entities or any other blocked person under the maintenance or wind-down authorization must be made into a blocked account in accordance with the RuHSR, 31 CFR part 587. Contingent contracts include executory contracts, executory pro forma invoices, agreements in principle, executory offers capable of acceptance such as bids or proposals in response to public tenders, binding memoranda of understanding, or any other similar agreement. The license does not authorize: (1) the unblocking of any property blocked pursuant to any part of 31 CFR chapter V; or (2) any transactions otherwise prohibited by the RuHSR, including transactions involving any person blocked pursuant to the RuHSR other than the blocked persons described in paragraph (a), unless separately authorized.
