    does not favor the proposed agreement for cooperation: Provided, That
    the sixty-day period shall not begin until a Nuclear Proliferation
    Assessment Statement prepared by the Secretary of State, and any annexes
    thereto, when required by subsection a., have been submitted to the
    Congress. Provided further, That an agreement for cooperation exempted
    by the President pursuant to subsection (a) of this section from any
    requirement contained in that subsection or an agreement exempted
    pursuant to section 104(a)(1) of the Henry J. Hyde United States-India
    Peaceful Atomic Energy Cooperation Act of 2006, shall not become

    contained therein provide an adequate framework to ensure that any
    exports as contemplated by such agreement will not be inimical to or
    constitute an unreasonable risk to the common defense and security.

      If, after March 10, 1978, the Congress fails to disapprove a proposed
    agreement for cooperation which exempts the recipient nation from the
    requirement set forth in subsection a.(2), such failure to act shall
    constitute a failure to adopt a resolution of disapproval pursuant to
    subsection 128b.(3) [42 U.S.C. 2157(b)(3)] for purposes of the
    Commission's consideration of applications and requests under section
    126a.(2) [42 U.S.C. 2155(a)(2)] and there shall be no congressional
    review pursuant to section 128 [42 U.S.C. 2157] of any subsequent

      Provided, That continued cooperation under an agreement for
    cooperation as authorized in accordance with section 124 of this Act [42
    U.S.C. 2154] shall not be prevented by failure to meet the provisions of
    paragraph (4) or (5) of section 127 [42 U.S.C. 2156(4) or (5)] for a
    period of thirty days after March 10, 1978, and for a period of twenty-
    three months thereafter if the Secretary of State notifies the
    Commission that the nation or group of nations bound by the relevant
    agreement has agreed to negotiations as called for in section 404(a) of
    the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Act of 1978 [42 U.S.C. 2153c(a)]; however,
    nothing in this subsection shall be deemed to relinquish any rights
    which the United States may have under agreements for cooperation in
    force on the date of enactment of this section: Provided further, That
    if, upon the expiration of such twenty-month period, the President
    determines that failure to continue cooperation with any group of
    nations which has been exempted pursuant to the above proviso from the
    provisions of paragraph (4) or (5) of section 127 of this Act [42 U.S.C.
    2156(4) or (5)], but which has not yet agreed to comply with those
    provisions would be seriously prejudicial to the achievement of United
    States non-proliferation objectives or otherwise jeopardize the common
    defense and security, he may, after notifying the Congress of his
    determination, extend by Executive order the duration of the above
    proviso for a period of twelve months, and may further extend the
    duration of such proviso by one year increments annually thereafter if
    he again makes such determination and so notifies the Congress. In the
    event that the Committee on Foreign Affairs of the House of
    Representatives or the Committee on Foreign Relations of the Senate
    reports a joint resolution to take any action with respect to any such
    extension, such joint resolution will be considered in the House or
    Senate, as the case may be, under procedures identical to those provided
    for the consideration of resolutions pursuant to section 130 of this Act
    [42 U.S.C. 2159]: * * *

    submit the Executive order, together with his explanation of why, in
    light of the Commission's decision, the export should nonetheless be
    made, to the Congress for a period of sixty days of continuous session
    (as defined in subsection 130g. [42 U.S.C. 2159(g)]) and shall be
    referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs of the House of
    Representatives and the Committee on Foreign Relations of the Senate,
    but any such proposed export shall not occur if during such sixty-day
    period the Congress adopts a concurrent resolution stating in substance
    that it does not favor the proposed export. Any such Executive order
    shall be considered pursuant to the procedures set forth in section 130

    on Foreign Relations of the Senate or the Committee on Foreign Affairs
    of the House of Representatives, as the case may be, and shall be

    license or authorization which is issued after each twelve-month period
    thereafter, shall be submitted to the Congress for review pursuant to
    the procedures specified in paragraph (1): Provided further, That if the
    Congress adopts a resolution of disapproval during any review period
    provided for by this paragraph, the provisions of paragraph (2) shall
    apply with respect to further exports to such state.
