dent shall require that no digital computer with a composite theo-
retical performance level of more than 2,000 millions of theoretical

retical performance level as may be established subsequently by
the President under subsection (d), may be exported or reexported
without a license to a country specified in subsection (b) if the
Secretary of Commerce, the Secretary of Defense, the Secretary
of Energy, the Secretary of State, or the Director of the Arms
Control and Disarmament Agency objects, in writing, to such export

the notification to the Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of Energy,
the Secretary of State, and the Director of the Arms Control and
Disarmament Agency.

of a composite theoretical level between the level established
in subsection (a) or such level as has been previously adjusted
pursuant to this section and the new level, are available from
