Therefore, 6 787 tonnes are to be added to the subquota erga omnes while the same quantity is to be deducted from the subquota for third countries, except Canada and the United States of America.\n(4)\nOn the basis of Article 3(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1067/2008, the subquota for third countries, except Canada and the United States of America, is to be divided into four quarterly subperiods. Taking into account the abovementioned reduction of the quantity for that subquota, it is needed to adapt the volume of each quarterly subperiod.\n(5)\nRegulation (EC) No 1067/2008 should therefore be amended accordingly.\n(6)\nThe measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee for the Common Organisation of Agricultural Markets,\nHAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:",
