Background

    On August 28, 2003, the President issued Executive Order 13315 (the 
``Order'') pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, 
50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq., the National Emergencies Act, 50 U.S.C. 1601 et 
seq., section 5 of the United Nations Participation Act, as amended, 22 
U.S.C. 287c, section 301 of title 3, United States Code, and in view of 
United Nations Security Council Resolution 1483 of May 22, 2003. In the 
Order, the President expanded the scope of the national emergency 
declared in Executive Order 13303 of May 22, 2003, to address the 
unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign 
policy of the United States posed by obstacles to the orderly 
reconstruction of Iraq, the restoration and maintenance of peace and 
security in that country, and the development of political, 
administrative, and economic institutions in Iraq. The Order blocks the 
property and interests in property of, inter alia, persons listed on 
the Annex to the Order.
    On July 30, 2004, the President issued Executive Order 13350, 
which, inter alia, replaced the Annex to Executive Order 13315 with a 
new Annex that included the names of individuals and entities, 
including individuals and entities that had previously been designated 
under Executive Order 12722 and related authorities.
    The Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control 
has determined that the individual identified below, whose property and 
interests in property were blocked pursuant to Executive Order 13315, 
as amended, should be removed from the SDN List.
    The following designation is removed from the SDN List:

ALI, Ali Abdul Mutalib, Germany (individual) [IRAQ2]

    The removal of this individual's name from the SDN List is 
effective as of September 1, 2011. All property and interests in 
property of the individual that are in or hereafter come within the 
United States or the possession or control of United States persons are 
now unblocked.

    Dated: September 1, 2011.
Adam J. Szubin,
Director, Office of Foreign Assets Control.
