As regards your test key tables, if by December 4, 2005, nothing is heard from you to the contrary, we shall instruct our correspondent bank branches involved to destroy your tables now in their possession.

If, by October 1, 2003, nothing is beard from you to the contrary, we would suspend the arrangements with your * branches and would instruct our branches to discontinue using them. P
