This is the third in a series of works devoted to spectral asymptotics for non-selfadjoint perturbations of selfadjoint $h$-pseudodifferential operators in dimension 2, having a periodic classical flow. Assuming that the strength $\epsilon$ of the perturbation is in the range ${{h}^{2}}\ll \epsilon \ll {{h}^{1/2}}$ (and may sometimes reach even smaller values), we get an asymptotic description of the eigenvalues in rectangles $[-1/C,1/C]+i\epsilon [{{F}_{0}}-1/C,{{F}_{0}}+1/C],C\gg 1$, when $\epsilon {{F}_{0}}$ is a saddle point value of the flow average of the leading perturbation.
