Any provision of law to the contrary notwithstanding, subject to the provisions of Republic Act Numbered twenty-two hundred sixty-one insofar as they are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Act, cynomolgus monkeys and crocodile skins may be exported on a commodity to commodity trade basis to countries with which the Philippines has diplomatic relations for a period of two years from the date of the approval of this Act: Provided, That permit to trade shall be granted only to persons, natural or juridical, authorized under subparagraph one, Section two of said Act, hereinafter called exporter: Provided, however, That the commodities allowed to be imported in exchange for cynomolgus monkeys or crocodile skins exported under this Act shall be limited to pharmaceutical raw materials, drugs and medicines: Provided, further, That the exporter may ship an excess of from fifteen to twenty per cent of the total number of monkeys authorized in the commodity trade permit issued to him to take care of any mortality, or depreciation in the value, of such monkeys: Provided, further, That the exporter shall be required to post with the Producers Incentives Board a bond in an amount to be fixed by said Board to answer for any violations of the barter privileges granted under this Act.

Sec. 2.

Any permit to trade issued by the Producers Incentives Board pursuant to the provisions of this Act shall be given due course by government officers, agencies and instrumentalities, and shall constitute authority for the exporter named therein to ship cynomolgus monkeys or crocodile skins and import the pharmaceutical raw materials, drugs and medicines covered by said permit.
