8. You are specifically advised that even if you intend to apply for reconsideration of the preservation order in this case,
you must in addition comply with paragraphs 4 and 5 above if you intend to oppose the forfeiture application at a later
date. Failure to do so can result in a forfeiture order being granted against the property by default and without further
notice to you.
