'1a. If the seeds have already been identified with a view to obtaining the aid provided for in Article 27 of Council Regulation No 136/66/EEC (1), the interested party may apply for the compensatory aid on condition that the export of a quantity of oil corresponding to that which may be obtained from the seeds has been authorized by the issue of the export document.

The amount of compensatory aid to be taken into account shall be that in force on the day of application and applicable on the day of export. The quantity of seeds to be taken into account for the calculaton of those two aids shall be that obtained on the basis of the oil yields laid down in Annex II hereto.
