Point (e) in Article 1 (2) is deleted.   2.  Article 4 (1) is replaced by the following:  ´1.  The levy on eggs in shell shall be composed of:  (a)  one component equal to the difference between prices within the Community and on the world market for the quantity of feed grain required for the production in the Community of one kilogram of eggs in shell.  The prices for feed grain within the Community shall be determined once a year for a period of 12 months beginning on 1 July, on the basis of the threshold prices for such grain and the monthly increase thereof. They shall be used for fixing the levy  from 1 July of each year.  The prices for feed grain on the world market shall be determined quarterly on the basis of prices for such grain recorded for the five-month period ending one month before the beginning of the quarter for which the said component is calculated.  However, when the levy applicable from 1 October, 1 January and 1 April is being fixed, trends in world market prices for feed grain shall be taken into account only if at the same time a new sluice-gate price is being fixed;  (b)  one component equal to 7 % of the average of the sluice-gate prices ruling for the four quarters preceding 1 April of each year.  This component shall be calculated once a year for a period of 12 months beginning 1 July.' 3.  Article 5 (2) is replaced by the following:  ´2.  The coefficients expressing the quantities and relationship mentioned in paragraph 1 shall be fixed using the procedure specified in Article 17.' 4.  The last subparagraph of Article 7 (2) is replaced by the following:  ´However, when the sluice-gate price applicable from 1 October, 1 January and 1 April is being fixed, trends in world market prices for feed grain shall be taken into account only if the price of the quantity of feed grain shows a minimum variation from  that used in calculating the sluice-gate price for the preceding quarter.' Article 2 Regulation (EEC) No 2777/75 is hereby amended as follows:  1.  Point (e) in Article 1 (2) is deleted.  2.  Article 4 (1) is replaced by the following:  ´1.

The prices for feed grain on the world market shall be determined quarterly on the basis of the prices for such grain for the five-month period ending one month before the beginning of the quarter for which the said component is calculated.  However, when the levies applicable from 1 October, 1 January and 1 April are being fixed, trends in world market prices for feed grain shall be taken into account only if at the time a new sluice-gate price is being fixed.  (b)  one component equal to 7 % of the average of the sluice-gate prices ruling for the four quarters preceding 1 April of each year.  This component shall be calculated once a year for a period of 12 months beginning 1 July.' 3.  Article 5 (3) is replaced by the following:  ´3.  The coefficients expressing the relationships mentioned in paragraph 1 shall be fixed using the procedure specified in Article 17.' 4.
