1.Where a Member State makes use of the option provided for in Article 42(5) of Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003, it may in particular allocate, upon request, in accordance with this Article, payment entitlements to farmers, in the areas concerned, who declare fewer hectares than the number corresponding to payment entitlements they would be or would have been allocated in accordance with Article 43 of that Regulation.

In that case, the farmer shall give up to the national reserve all the payment entitlement he owns or should have been allocated, except set-aside entitlements and payment entitlements subject to special conditions referred to in Article 49 of Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003.

2.The number of payment entitlements allocated from the national reserve shall be equal to the number of hectares the farmer declares.
