Sirs:


Following the recent discussions between our respective lawyers, I confirm my complete and unreserved agreement that, at your expense and without delay, the disposal [la mise au pilon] of the non-sold copies of the works of which I am the author and the publication or re-publication of which I had entrusted to the Lebovici-Champ Libre company in the period before its current management, that is to say, between 1972 and 1990:

The Society of the Spectacle; The Veritable Split in the International; Internationale Situationniste; Complete Cinematic Works; Preface to the Fourth Italian Edition of "The Society of the Spectacle"; Considerations on the Assassination of Gerard Lebovici; Potlatch; The Game of War; Comments on the Society of the Spectacle; Panegyric; In girum imus nocte et consumimur igni.

You want to acknowledge receipt of this letter by making precise the number of each work disposed of and confirming that you have done what is required.
