In working storage declare
01 ws-count1 pic s9(4) comp value zeroes.
01 ws-count2 pic s9(4) comp value zeroes.
In procedure division
PERFORM 200000-PROCESS THRU 200000-EXIT
UNTIL WS-EOF-IN = 'Y'.
200000-PROCESS.
READ IN-FILE AT END MOVE 'Y' TO WS-EOF-IN
GO TO 200000-EXIT.
ADD 1 TO WS-COUNT1
IF WS-COUNT1 <= 3
MOVE IN-REC TO OUT-REC
WRITE OUT-REC
ELSE
ADD 1 TO WS-COUNT2
IF WS-COUNT2 = 3
MOVE ZEROES TO WS-COUNT1
WS-COUNT2
END-IF
END-IF.
