3.Where this paragraph is specifically referred to when an export refund or an export tax on products listed in Article 1(1)(a), (b) and (c) of Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 and Article 1(1)(a) of Regulation (EC) No 3072/95 is fixed, export licence applications must be accompanied by a copy of a contract. The contract must come from an official body in the country of destination or an undertaking with its place of business in that country and must indicate a quantity covered by, and a delivery period not extending beyond, the term of validity of the licence. No export licences may have been issued previously for the contract under this Article. The Member State concerned shall verify that licence applications comply with the conditions laid down in this paragraph and shall notify the Commission on the day they are lodged of the quantity covered by licences which are admissible. The corresponding licences shall actually be issued only on the third working day following the day on which the applications are submitted, provided that no special measures are taken by the Commission before then.
If applications for export licences as referred to in the first paragraph cover quantities in excess of those which may be committed for export and which are indicated in the regulation fixing the refund or tax in question, the Commission may fix a uniform percentage reduction in the quantities within two working days of submission of the applications. Licence applications may be withdrawn within two working days of the date of publication of the percentage reduction.
Notwithstanding Article 9 of Regulation (EC) No 1291/2000, rights deriving from licences shall not be transferable.
In the case of non-performance of the contract by the importing purchaser, the operator may export to a different country of destination but only against the export refund or export tax in force on the day on which applications for export licences to ‘other third countries’ were originally lodged. Where no export refund or export tax exists for ‘other third countries’ on the date of the original licence application, an ad hoc solution may be adopted, in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 23 of Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92.
