For products referred to in Article 1 the list of products on which an export refund is granted and the amount of that refund shall be fixed at least once every three months. 2. The amount of the refund shall be that applicable on the day of exportation. 3. However, it may be decided that the refund shall, upon request, be fixed in advance. In that case, where the applicant so requests when lodging an application for a certificate of advance fixing as provided for in Article 5a, and before 13.00 hours, the export refund applicable on the day when he lodges such application shall apply to an export operation carried out during the period of validity of the said certificate. 4. Where examination of the market situation shows that there are difficulties due to the application of the provisions concerning the advance fixing of the refund, or that such difficulties may occur, a decision may be taken in (1)OJ No L 148, 28.6.1968, p. 24. (2)OJ No L 67, 15.3.1976, p. 28. (3)OJ No L 156, 4.7.1968, p. 2. accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 27 of Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 to suspend, for the period strictly necessary, the application of those provisions. In cases of extreme urgency, the Commission may, after examination of the situation, decide, on the basis of all the information available to it, to suspend advance fixing for a maximum of three working days. Applications for certificates accompanied by applications for advance fixing lodged during the period of suspension shall be rejected." Article 2 The following Article is hereby added to Regulation (EEC) No 885/68: "Article 5a 1. The granting of the refund under the conditions laid down in Article 5 (3) shall be conditional on the presentation of a certificate of advance fixing which shall be issued by Member States to any applicant, irrespective of his place of establishment in the Community. Such certificates shall be valid throughout the Community. 2. The issue of a certificate of advance fixing shall be conditional upon the provision of security guaranteeing that the exportation will be carried out within the period of validity of the certificate. If the operation is not carried out, or only partially carried out, within that period, the security shall be wholly or partially forfeit."
