With respect to property subject to the proviso of paragraph 1, any transaction not involving any excepted country or national thereof which is authorized under any license (other than General Licenses Nos. 1, 1A, 4, 27, 30A, 58 and 75 or any other license to the extent that it merely authorizes transfers between blocked accounts of the same person or changes in the form of property held in a blocked account) may be effected without regard to any terms of such license relating to the method of effecting such transaction.

3. Certain other transactions authorized. This license also authorizes any transaction which could be effected under General License No. 53 if the countries licensed hereby were members of the generally licensed trade area, provided that this paragraph shall not be deemed to authorize any payment, transfer, or withdrawal, or other dealing, with respect to any property which is subject to the proviso of paragraph 1.
