        executive agency directly or indirectly to a covered person or 
        entity; or
            (2) fail to exercise due diligence to ensure that none of 
        the funds, including goods and services, received under a

        agency are provided directly or indirectly to a covered person 
        or entity.
    (b) Notice of Identified Persons and Entities.--
            (1) Notice.--Upon the identification of a person or entity

        grant, or cooperative agreement directly or indirectly to a 
        covered person or entity.
            (2) Terminate for default any contract, grant, or

        written determination by the head of contracting activity or 
        other appropriate official that the contractor, or the 
        recipient of the grant or cooperative agreement, has failed to 
        exercise due diligence to ensure that none of the funds 
        received under the contract, grant, or cooperative agreement 
        are provided directly or indirectly to a covered person or 
        entity.
            (3) Void in whole or in part any contract, grant, or

                    (A) A contract, grant, or cooperative agreement 
                that is void is unenforceable as contrary to public 
                policy.
                    (B) A contract, grant, or cooperative agreement 
                that is void in part is unenforceable as contrary to 
                public policy with regard to a segregable task or

                agreement.

        cooperative agreement notify in writing the contractor or 
        recipient of the grant or cooperative agreement, as applicable, 
        of the action.

        challenge the action by requesting an administrative review of 
        the action under the procedures of the executive agency 
        concerned not later than 30 days after receipt of notice of the

        basis, review the lists of persons and entities previously 
        covered by a notice under subsection (b) as having been 
        identified as described by subsection (a) in order to determine 
        whether or not such persons and entities continue to warrant 
        identification as described by subsection (a). If a 
        determination is made pursuant to such a review that a person 
        or entity no longer warrants identification as described by 
        subsection (a), the Secretary of Defense shall notify the head 
        of an executive agency (or designee) or commander (or deputy), 
        as the case may be, in writing of such determination.
            (2) Protection of classified information.--Classified 
        information relied upon to make an identification in accordance 
        with subsection (a) may not be disclosed to a contractor or a 
        recipient of a grant or cooperative agreement with respect to 
        which an action is taken pursuant to the authority provided in 
        subsection (c), or to their representatives, in the absence of 
        a protective order issued by a court of competent jurisdiction 
        established under Article I or Article III of the Constitution 
        of the United States that specifically addresses the conditions

        of contracting activity, or equivalent official for purposes of

        specified deputies of the commanders) relating to persons or 
        entities who may be providing funds, including goods and 
        services, received under contracts, grants, or cooperative

        combatant commands.
            (2) Inclusion of information on contract actions in fapiis 
        and other systems.--Upon the termination, voiding, or
