(Excerpt §2)

When deciding on requests for the authorisation referred to in paragraph 2 of this Article, the competent authorities shall not grant an authorisation for a sale or other transfer of ownership to any natural or legal person, entity or body in Russia or for use in Russia, if they have reasonable grounds to believe that the tanker would be used to transport, or be re-exported to transport, crude oil or petroleum products listed in Annex XXV, originating in Russia or exported from Russia for import into the Union in breach of Article 3m or for transport to third countries at a purchase price per barrel exceeding the price laid down in Annex XXVIII.

Any sale or other arrangement entailing a transfer of ownership by a national of a Member State, a natural person residing in a Member State, and a legal person, entity or body which is established in the Union to any third country of tankers for the transport of crude oil or petroleum products listed in Annex XXV, falling under HS code ex 8901 20, with the exception of a sale or other transfer of ownership prohibited under paragraph 1, shall be notified immediately to the competent authorities of the Member State where the owner of the tanker is a citizen, a resident or is established.
