In making the emergency rate redeterminations the Secretary may modify existing contract terms, including the amount of the bid premium, in order to provide rates which will permit the holders of contracts bid after January 1, 1974 , to be competitive with other purchasers of National Forest timber. The provisions of this section shall not apply to contracts held by the holders of 50-year timber sale contracts in Alaska.
