THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Whereas the experience gained has shown that a time limit, calculated from the date of removal of the butter, need not be specified for the payment of the selling price; whereas Article 10 of the said Regulation should therefore be amended, together with Articles 6 (1) and 7 (2) as regards the tendering security and the security to guarantee arrival in to country of destination;

2. Article 7 (2) is replaced by the following:

'2. Simultaneously with the fixing of the minimum sales prices and in accordance with the same procedure, the amount of the securities to guarantee the fulfilment of the principal requirements concerning the removal of the butter within the period specified in the second paragraph of Article 10, and export, within the period specified in Article 15, of the butter unprocessed or after processing and its arrival in the country of destination shall be fixed.

In cases where these obligations are not complied with, the security regarding arrival in the country of destination, as referred to in the first subparagraph, shall be wholly forfeit.

The amount of the security shall be equal to the difference between the intervention price for butter valid on the closing date for the submission of tenders, plus 10 ECU per tonne, and the price paid in accordance with Article 10.'

3. Article 10 is replaced by the following:

'Article 10

Before the removal of the butter the successful tenderer shall pay the intervention agency, in respect of each quantity he intends to remove, the price shown in his tender.
