5 706 F.2d at 416. In this respect, the court contrasted its present conclusion with that in Libra Bank, where it had construed the waiver of “any right or immunity for legal proceedings including suit judgment and execution” to constitute an explicit waiver of immunity from prejudgment attachment within the meaning of § 1610(d)(1). The court also contrasted the explicit waiver requirement of §1610(d)(l) with the requirement of §1610(a) of the Act, which provides that a foreign state’s immunity from attachment as an aid in the execution of a judgment can be waived implicitly as well as explicitly.
