3. Each tendering period shall be numbered in series starting with the first period provided for.
Article 3
1. Each tender shall concern a minimum quantity of at least 10 tonnes of butter or 18 tonnes of butteroil.
2. The tendering security shall be EUR 20 per 100 kilograms of butter and EUR 25 per 100 kilograms of butteroil.
The tendering security shall become the export licence security when a tender is accepted.
