With respect to the tariff rate quota 011 (meat of bovine animals, frozen; edible offal of bovine animals, frozen), Brazil and the Union agree on the following change to scheduled commitments to facilitate the usage of the tariff rate quota: the ad valorem part of the in-quota duty shall be limited to 15 %, instead of 20 %, as it currently stands.

5.   With respect to the Brazil country specific allocation for tariff rate quota 098 (raw cane sugar, for refining), notwithstanding the bound in quota rate of 98 EUR per tonne, and provided that the relevant quantities are available within the tariff rate quota period running at the moment of the entry into force of this Agreement, the Union will autonomously apply:

| --- | --- |

(a)

In the year in which the Agreement enters into force (year 1), an in-quota rate of no more than 11 EUR per tonne on a volume of 5 963 tonnes;

| (b) | In year 2, an in-quota rate of no more than 11 EUR per tonne on a volume of 4 472 tonnes and an in-quota rate of no more than 54 EUR per tonne on an additional volume of 5 963 tonnes. |

In year 2, an in-quota rate of no more than 11 EUR per tonne on a volume of 4 472 tonnes and an in-quota rate of no more than 54 EUR per tonne on an additional volume of 5 963 tonnes.

Where the relevant quantities are not available in full within the tariff rate quota period running at the moment of the entry into force of this Agreement, the Union will implement point (a) starting from year 2 and for a duration corresponding to the period between the entry into force of this Agreement and implementing point (b) in year 3.

Article 3

The Union's ongoing negotiations under Article XXVIII of the GATT 1994

1.   The Parties acknowledge that the Union is continuing to conduct negotiations and consultations with other WTO Members holding negotiating or consultation rights under Article XXVIII of the GATT 1994 as a consequence of the United Kingdom's withdrawal from the Union as communicated to WTO Members.

2.   As a result of those negotiations and consultations, the Union may consider a change to the shares and quantities set out in Article 2 or those in document G/SECRET/42/Add.2. In the event of such a change with regard to a prior tariff rate quota commitment of the Union for which Brazil has a negotiating or consultation right, the Union shall consult or negotiate with Brazil, as appropriate, with a view to seeking a mutually satisfactory outcome before proceeding to any such change, without prejudice to each party's rights under Article XXVIII of the GATT 1994.

Article 4

Poultry tariff rate quotas 029, 088, 089, 090, 091, 092

For imports of poultry products under tariff rate quotas 029, 088, 089, 090, 091, 092 opened by the Union in favour of Brazil, the proof of origin to be presented when the product is released for free circulation continues to be a certificate of origin issued in a non-discriminatory way by the competent authorities in Brazil.

Article 5

Implementation of the new TRQ volumes

1.   The changes to tariff rate quotas introduced by this Agreement shall apply at the earliest from the date when the corresponding changes provided for in the Agreement under Article XXVIII of the GATT 1994 between Brazil and the United Kingdom become applicable.

2.   Brazil shall inform the Union about the conclusion of the negotiations under Article XXVIII of the GATT 1994 with the United Kingdom without undue delay.

3.   The Union will use its best efforts to coordinate with the United Kingdom on a schedule to implement the relevant amendments concerning the volumes for the poultry tariff rate quotas modified by this Agreement so as to ensure that the aggregate volume of each Union/United Kingdom pair of the poultry tariff rate quotas will never be lower than the existing volume of the Union's tariff rate quotas before the United Kingdom's withdrawal from the Union. This is without prejudice to any future recourse to Article XXVIII of the GATT 1994 by either the Union or the United Kingdom.

Article 6

Final provisions

1.   This Agreement shall enter into force on the day following the date on which the Union has notified Brazil of the completion of its internal legal procedures necessary for this purpose.

2.   This arrangement constitutes an international agreement between the Union and Brazil, including for the purposes of Article XXVIII:3(a) and (b) of the GATT 1994.

3.   This Agreement shall be drawn up in duplicate in the Bulgarian, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Estonian, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hungarian, Irish, Italian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Maltese, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish and Swedish languages, each text being equally authentic.

  The cooling mat is covered with a waterproof textile fabric of synthetic fibres (polyester), and is coated with plastics on the inside.
  The cooling mat has a cooling effect on e.g. an animal lying down on it, due to the gel.
  The cooling mat is put up for retail sale and presented to be used for dogs or cats but can also be used by humans.

  Classification under heading 9404 as articles of bedding and similar furnishing is excluded, because the cooling mat is mainly intended to provide a cooling effect. Thus, its function is not comparable to that of articles of bedding and similar furnishing of heading 9404 .
  The cooling mat is a composite article within the meaning of general rule 3(b) for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature, consisting of a cover of textile fabric, a plate of cellular plastic foam and gel containing carboxymethylcellulose.
  The gel gives the product its essential character; the plate of cellular plastic foam only has a carrier function, while the waterproof textile merely serves as a cover (see also the Harmonised System Explanatory Notes to heading 3926 , point (9)). The mat containing the gel is an article of materials of heading 3912 .
  The cooling mat is therefore to be classified under CN code 3926 90 97 as other article of other materials of headings 3901 to 3914 . |

| (4) | Pursuant to Article SSCI.53(2) of the Protocol on Social Security Coordination to the Trade and Cooperation Agreement (the ‘Protocol’), the interest for late payments is to be calculated on the basis of the reference rate applied by the financial institution designated for this purpose by the Specialised Committee to its main refinancing operations. |
