Termination clause preserves information obligations and requires diplomatic notice with an effective post notice period for pending requests. Either Contracting Party may terminate the Agreement after the initial three year period by written notice through diplomatic channels; termination becomes effective on the first day of the month following the expiry of a specified notice period after receipt. All requests received up to the effective date shall be dealt with under the Agreement, and the obligation in Article 8 regarding information obtained under the Agreement survives termination and continues to bind the Parties.
