In May 1942, the US and Panama finally signed a Defense Sites Agreement1 (and a parallel exchange of notes in Washington2) allowing for the lease of what eventually became a total of 134 sites outside the Canal Zone to be used for the protection of the Canal, with the occupation of the sites to end 1 year after the end of the war3. The agreements provided for a new, simpler procedure for the US to acquire defence sites outside the Canal Zone4.
