SECTION-3: ENTRY INTO FORCE AND PROVISIONAL APPLICATION OF TREATIES
ARTICLE 25: Provisional application
1. A treaty or a part of a treaty is applied provisionally pending its entry into force if:

(b) the negotiating States have in some other manner so agreed.
2. Unless the treaty otherwise provides or the negotiating States have otherwise agreed, the provisional application of a treaty or a part of a treaty with respect to a State shall be terminated if that State notifies the other States between which the treaty is being applied provisionally of its intention not to become a party to the treaty.
