Within 90 days after the administering authority accepts a quantitative restriction agreement under section 1671c(a)(2) or (c)(3), the President must consult with the government that is a party to the agreement to (1) eliminate the countervailable subsidy completely, or (2) reduce the net countervailable subsidy enough to completely eliminate the injury caused by the merchandise’s exports to the United States.
(b) Changes after consultations. At the President’s direction, the administering authority must modify the agreement because of those consultations.
(c) Special rule. This subpart stops applying to an agreement described in section 1671c(c)(3) when the agreement stops being in force under section 1671c(f) or a violation is found under section 1671c(i).

eliminating the countervailable subsidy completely, or
reducing the net countervailable subsidy to a level that eliminates completely the injurious effect of exports to the United States of the merchandise.
At the direction of the President, the administering authority shall modify a quantitative restriction agreement as a result of consultations entered into under subsection (a).
This subpart shall cease to apply to a quantitative restriction agreement described in section 1671c(c)(3) of this title at such time as that agreement ceases to have force and effect under section 1671c(f) of this title or violation is found under section 1671c(i) of this title.
