Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to the Act of Accession of Greece, and in particular paragraph 9 of Protocol 4 on cotton, as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 4006/87 (1),
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (2),
Whereas Article 5 of Regulation (EEC) No 2169/81 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2276/87 (4), provides that the aid to be paid is to be that applying on the day when the application for aid is made; whereas the amount of the aid must be  calculated taking account of the guide price fixed for the marketing year during which the cotton to which the application relates is harvested;
Whereas Article 2 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1964/87 of 2 July 1987 adjusting the system of aid for cotton introduced by Protocol 4 annexed to the Act of Accession of Greece (5) provides that where the maximum guaranteed quantity is exceeded, the  aid is to be reduced by the impact on the guide price of a coefficient to be established; whereas that coefficient is fixed pursuant to Article 7 of Regulation (EEC) No 2169/81;
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 2276/87 amends inter alia Article 8 of Regulation (EEC) No 2169/81; whereas Regulation (EEC) No 2169/81 should therefore be adapted accordingly,
