   Help with ugly legalese

   Hello, all Can you help me decipher this piece of looney   
   legalese, in which I have masked the entity names:   
      
      2023.01.17   
      
      In accordance with the Agreement for Foo Services,   
      CompanyOne (C1) and CompanyTwo (C2) agree to the   
      termination of the 55, 56, 57, 58, 59 Foo Solution   
      Agreement between CompanyTwo and CompanyOne ("the   
      Agreement") pursuant to CompanyTwo's decision effective   
      2023.02.24.   
      
   Apart from the terrible style, ambiguities, and probably   
   poor grammar, my question is: since what date is the said   
   agreement considered null and void and terminated?  Is it   
   since the date in the title of the document (2023.01.17), or   
   the date in the text (2023.02.24), which is in the future.   
   What does "effective 2023.02.24" -- effective since,   
   effective till, or nonsense?
