Article 2  1. A coefficient equal to the impact on the cost price of the difference between the average market exchange rate and the agricultural conversion rate applicable at the beginning of the marketing year shall be applied to production aid.  2. For the application of paragraph 1:  - 'cost price' means the minimum price payable to the producer less the aid,  - 'average market exchange rate' means the average of the rates of the ecu published in the Official Journal of the European Communities, series C, during the first quarter of the year during which the marketing year in question starts, multiplied by  the correction factor referred to in Article 1 (c) of Regulation (EEC) No 3813/92.  3. The coefficients calculated in accordance with paragraph 1 shall be as set out in Annex II.  Article 3  Where processing takes place outside the Member State in which the produce was grown, such Member State shall furnish proof to the Member State paying the production aid that the minimum price payable to the producer has been paid.  Article 4  This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.  This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.  Done at Brussels, 7 July 1993.
