           (') This Annex, together with the notice published in Official Journal No C 95 of 19 April 1977,
               page 7 , takes the place of an invitation to tender from the intervention agencies concerned in
               cases where, under point 12, there must be a tendering procedure.
           (2) The unsalted butter must be made from pasteurized fresh cream and contain no colouring
               matters or neutralizers . The butter must have no smell and must be of an even texture.
               The butter must conform to the following technical specifications :
               fat content : minimum 82 % ,
               water content : maximum 16 % ,
               non-fat dry matter content : maximum 1 -5 % ,

           (3) Delivery shall be deemed to have taken place and the risks shall pass from the successful

               rails of the vessel at the port of shipment designated for delivery.
