FTP script - 'quit' never executes

I have wrote a script to get a very large encrypted file from a remote ftp server to a local debian box.
The file downloads successfully, but the script never exits, or quits. None of code executes after the ftp get command.
The file is approx 291M

Here is the code:

Code:
!/bin/sh
WORKING_DIR=/home/jstrahm/AgencyWorks
LOG=$WORKING_DIR/log.txt
PGP_FILE=AiData.zip.pgp
AGWORKS_USER=xxxx
AGWORKS_PASWD=xxxx
AGWORKS_FTP="xxxxxx.com"

echo "`date` --BEGIN Get Replicator File" >> $LOG
# (1) Download the AgencyWorks encrypted zip file from Agency Works
ftp -niv $AGWORKS_FTP >> $LOG <<END_SCRIPT
quote USER $AGWORKS_USER
quote pass $AGWORKS_PASWD
binary
lcd $WORKING_DIR
get $PGP_FILE
quit
END_SCRIPT
echo "`date` --END Get Replicator File" >> $LOG
exit 0

NAME
installsieve - user utility for managing sieve scripts SYNOPSIS
installsieve DESCRIPTION
installsieve is a utility that allows users to manage their sieve scripts kept on the server. OPTIONS
-v <name> View script with the given name. The script if retrieved sucessfully is output to standard output. -l List all of the scripts currently on the server. If one of the scripts is active a arrow is printed indicating that it is the active script. -p <port> Port to connect to. If left off this defaults to "sieve" as defined in /etc/services. -i <file> Install a file onto the server. If a script with the same name already exists on the server it is overwritten. Upon sucessfully putting the script on the server the script is set active. If <file> has the extension .script it is chopped when put on the server since sieve names may not contain a '.'. -a <name> Set <name> as the active script. The list of available names can be obtained from the '-l' option.. -d <name> Delete the sieve script on the server with <name>. -m <mechanism> Force installsieve to use <mechanism> for authentication. If not specified the strongest authentication mechanism is chosen. -g <name> Get the sieve script with <name> and save it to disk with a ".script" extension. If a file with that name already exists it is overwritten. -u <user> Userid/Authname to use for authentication; by default, the current user. CMU
