Classification is determined by General Rules 1, 3(b) and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature, and by the wording of CN codes 3926 , 3926 90 and 3926 90 97 .

The articles, as presented, constitute a set in the sense of general interpretative rule 3(b).

The set does not consist of manicure products of subheading 3304 30 00 as it includes the addition of false nails stuck over the fingernail and does not include manicure preparations which simply care for and beautify the hand and the natural nails (Harmonised System Explanatory Notes to heading 3304 , (B)).

The set consists of different articles and is to be classified in subheading 3926 90 97 according to the plastic false nails, which give the set its essential character.

| (3) | Pursuant to the first subparagraph of Article 37(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006, and before the date of application of that Regulation, the Commission was required to adopt a Regulation taking into account all the replies received. The Commission duly adopted Regulation (EC) No 801/2007 of 6 July 2007 (2). However, further replies and clarifications received since that date provide a better understanding of how the replies of the countries of destination should be taken into account. |

Certain countries have in their replies made known their intention to follow control procedures applicable under national law that are distinct from those provided for in Article 37(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006. In addition, and in accordance with Article 37(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006, Article 18 of that Regulation should apply mutatis mutandis to such shipments, unless a waste is also subject to the prior notification and consent procedure.

| (7) | Regulation (EC) No 801/2007 should be amended accordingly. For the sake of clarity, given the number of changes required, it is appropriate to repeal that Regulation and replace it by this Regulation. However, waste classified in Regulation (EC) No 801/2007 as subject to no control in the country of destination but which in this Regulation is shown as requiring prior notification and consent should continue to be classified as subject to no control in the country of destination during a transitional period of 60 days after entry into force, |

IV.   THE RELEVANT PRODUCT MARKETS

| (7) | The Commission’s market investigation in the present case was particularly focussing on the markets for not genetically modified (non-GM) fluid lecithin and non-GM deoiled lecithin (1). Other affected markets were genetically modified (GM) lecithin, pectin and crude seed oil (2). |

1.   The different lecithin markets

| (8) | Lecithin is a food ingredient which, as a ‘emulsifier’ is used to stabilise emulsions, that is a mix of hydrophilic (e.g. water) and hydrophobic (e.g. oil) substances. Lecithin is used mainly in food and feed applications, but also in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and industrial products (such as herbicide and leather). Although it generally represents less than 1 % of total production costs, it is usually essential to the industrial process of end-users and can change radically the quality of final products. |

Although it generally represents less than 1 % of total production costs, it is usually essential to the industrial process of end-users and can change radically the quality of final products.

| (9) | Lecithin is a by-product generated in the process of crushing oilseeds, generally soybeans: the vast majority of lecithin sold on the market is extracted from soy oil (95 %) while other sources like rapeseed and sunflower remain marginal. Lecithin represents less than 1 % of the soybean content in volume and well below 5 % in value. |

(a)   Lecithin and synthetic emulsifiers are not on the same product market

| (10) | Emulsifiers can be divided into natural emulsifiers (i.e. lecithin) and synthetic emulsifiers (such as mono- or diglycerides). While the former are extracted from oilseeds, the latter are artificially produced through chemical reactions. The Commission’s market investigation has established that both types of emulsifiers do not belong to the same product market, mainly for the following reasons: |
| --- | --- |

(10)

Emulsifiers can be divided into natural emulsifiers

synthetic emulsifiers

| (11) | From a demand-side perspective, the market test has shown that lecithin and synthetic emulsifiers are not substitutable for both technological and quality reasons. This applies to feed and food manufacturers. Virtually no customer of non-GM lecithin has switched to synthetic emulsifiers in the past even though prices of the non-GM lecithin have doubled over the last two years, and the vast majority would not switch to synthetic emulsifiers should the price for lecithin increase by 10 % in the future. |

(b)   GM and non-GM lecithin have to be assessed separately

| (12) | The market investigation has also shown that separate markets for GM and non-GM lecithins have to be distinguished in Europe. Indeed, European customers (unlike customers in other parts of the world) have a strong opposition to genetically modified products. This has led the European Union to adopt several regulations that require labelling and traceability for genetically modified food, feed and their ingredients as of 2004 (2). Accordingly, lecithin can only be exempted from the labelling obligation, if there is an established certification process (audit trail) that covers the entire production and supply chain, proving that the relevant soy crop is non-GM, and that the inputs for the intermediate and finished products have been kept separate from GM material during planting, harvesting, storage, processing and distribution. |

| (13) | From a supply-side perspective, the production costs of non-GM lecithin are significantly higher than those of GM lecithin. In fact, the supply chain of non-GM lecithin is different from that of GM lecithin. As a result, prices of GM and non-GM lecithin differ significantly. |

(c)   Fluid, deoiled and fractionated lecithin have to be assessed separately

| (14) | The Commission in addition found that different types or grades of lecithin can be distinguished, since fluid lecithin (as the basic product) can be further refined by a deoiling process into ‘deoiled’ lecithin or by fractionation into ‘fractionated’ lecithin (3). Cargill is not active in the manufacture of fractionated lecithin. The market investigation has identified several elements that militate for a distinction between fluid, deoiled, and fractionated lecithin. |

| (15) | Nearly all customers indicated that they cannot switch between fluid and deoiled lecithin, since the respective lecithin type meets very specific needs of customers (e.g. taste, processing etc.) and involves a different production process. From a supply-side perspective, the production of deoiled and fractionated lecithin requires additional production facilities and a significant investment and involves different production know-how. |

2.   Pectin

| (16) | The parties’ activities overlap also in the field of Pectin. Pectin is used to gelatinize, stabilise and jellify products. The Commission has considered a further distinction beteen different Pectin types (e.g. apple and citrius pectin and according to the methoxyl content), but could ultimately leave the market definition open since the transaction would not impede competition under either market definition. |

V.   THE RELEVANT GEOGRAPHIC MARKETS

1.   Lecithin

| (17) | The Commission came to the conclusion that at least the markets for non-GM lecithin are EEA-wide in scope. |

(17)

The Commission came to the conclusion that at least the markets for non-GM lecithin

| (18) | Indeed, the strong preference of European customers for non-GM products, which is clearly limited to Europe, leads to different market conditions in Europe. Eighty per cent of all non-GM lecithin sales are within in the EEA, although only 45 % of the worldwide lecithin sales are within the EEA. What is more, customers only rarely buy directly from suppliers outside Europe, not only because transport costs are a relevant factor, but also since on-time delivery and support in terms of product and production know-how are crucial for many customers. The structure of demand for lecithin in the EEA differs therefore significantly from the rest of the world. |

| (19) | As regards the markets for GM lecithin (fluid and deoiled), although some factors seem to militate for a worldwide market (e.g. regulation requirements do not differ significantly across the world), the Commission could, for the purpose of this decision, leave the exact geographic market definition open. |

VI.   ASSESSMENT

1.   Non-GM fluid lecithin

| (21) | As regards the EEA market for non-GM fluid lecithin, the results of the in-depth market investigation effectively removed the serious doubts as to the proposed transaction’s compatibility with the common market. |
| --- | --- |

(21)

As regards the EEA market for non-GM fluid lecithin, the results of the in-depth market investigation effectively removed the serious doubts as to the proposed transaction’s compatibility with the common market.

| (22) | The investigation showed that the parties’ actual market share (30-40 %) is smaller than estimated by the parties (40-50 %) and confirmed that the competitive constraint stemming from other competitors is strong enough to effectively constrain the parties’ position on this market. Indeed, the share of competitors to Cargill, DFI and Solae is steadily and significantly increasing. Not only established food ingredients distributors such as Nore Ingredients (5-15 % market share) or Helm AG (0-10 % market share) were able to increase their share. Also Brazilian and Indian competitors have recently become a more credible alternative for European customers, since many of them have (unlike Cargill and Degussa) direct access to the raw material for non-GM fluid lecithin. Some bigger food/chocolate customers are today already buying directly from Brazilian sources. The leading Brazilian manufacturers have shown that they are able to establish their own distribution and logistics network in Europe and to compete directly with well established players like the merged entity and Solae. |

| (23) | The significant price increase and the attractive margins for non-GM fluid lecithin are a further incentive for Brazilian and Indian manufacturers to compete more aggressively with the parties on the European market. Since the leading players in the EEA (Cargill, DFI, Solae) currently source almost all their non-GM raw material from actual or at least potential Brazilian competitors, the current competitive environment in the market for non-GM fluid lecithin is not likely to change so as to create a substantive impediment of competition. |

| (24) | The Commission’s market investigation showed also that the merger will not lead to anti-competitive effects through coordinated effects. This is not only due to the asymmetry of the two major players’ market shares after the merger. Also, the results of the market investigation strongly indicate that the market for non-GM fluid cannot be considered as transparent: the price for non-GM lecithin is negotiated between the supplier and its customers on an individual basis with no price lists being available. As a result, prices for fluid lecithin vary significantly between individual customers, even those of a comparable size. |

2.   Non-GM deoiled lecithin

| (25) | The Commission’s investigation was particularly focussed on the market for non-GM deoiled lecithin, since the parties hold a particularly high combined market share in this market. However, while according to the notification only three players were active on this market, the in-depth investigation revealed that a number of new suppliers have already entered or are about to enter the non-GM deoiled market, thereby effectively constraining the parties’ ability to behave independently form their competitors. |

| (26) | The market investigation has confirmed that in 2005 DFI was still the biggest supplier of non-GM deoiled lecithin, with a market share of [50-60] %. Together with Cargill’s market share of [0-10] % in 2005, the merged entity would hold [60-70] % of the non-GM lecithin market in the EEA. |

| (27) | In addition, the investigation showed that Cargill’s position on the deoiled market is relatively weak, and that its disappearance as a competitor would not significantly change the current competitive structure of the market. Indeed, unlike its main competitors, Cargill has no own production facilities for deoiled lecithin, but has its deoiled lecithin produced in a factory in Arkansas, USA. This factory has a relatively limited capacity, which could not be utilised due to serious technical problems. Furthermore, the market investigation revealed that the ‘low price’ strategy that Cargill chose for the entry into the non-GM deoiled lecithin market proved not to be sustainable, given the dramatic increase of the costs for the raw material (non-GM fluid lecithin). |

| (28) | Furthermore, the investigation showed that new suppliers of non-GM deoiled lecithin have already entered the market or are likely to enter in a timely manner and with a sufficient scope of activity. Most of these suppliers (e.g. Berg & Schmidt/Sternchemie, Ruchi and Matlani) have already built up their own deoiling lines or will have them operational next year (e.g. SG Lecitinas). The fact that the newly installed deoiling capacities are significant shows that Indian and South American suppliers are highly committed to enter the European market. The newly available production capacity for non-GM deoiled lecithin in India and Brazil will exceed the volume of the entire EEA market. |

| (29) | The entry of a relatively large number of companies shows that the entry barriers to the deoiled lecithin market may be significant but are not insurmountable: while it is true that deoiled lecithin is no ‘commodity’ and its production involves technology and know-how, competitors have confirmed that this technology was available on the market (e.g. through engineering firms) and that they were able to produce non-GM deoiled lecithin of a comparable quality level to the market leaders. Also the fact that many food customers require a European presence of their supplier is not a significant obstacle for these competitors, since most of them cooperate with established European distributors who can provide the necessary know-how on customers and their individual need. Many customers have, indeed, confirmed that they are interested in alternative sources of deoiled non-GM lecithin. |

3.   GM lecithin markets

| (30) | The market investigation has not confirmed the existence of competition problems in the markets for GM lecithin. As concerns fluid lecithin, ADM will, even under the assumption of European markets, still be the clear market leader with a share of [40-50] %, followed by the parties, Solae, and a number of smaller competitors. This suggests that the new entity would have little leeway to increase prices unilaterally or otherwise impede competition. Furthermore Cargill does not focus its lecithin marketing strategy on GM markets. As for the risk that the merger will elicit coordinated behaviour, the Commission considers that such a risk is negligible, mainly for the same reasons as for non-GM fluid lecithin (no price transparency, asymmetry of market shares etc.). As concerns GM deoiled lecithin, Solae would hold [50-60] % of a European market, followed by DFI, but with a limited increment through the addition of Cargill. There are a number of other competitors on the market (e.g. ADM). Consequently, the overlap in the markets for GM deoiled lecithin is very limited. |

4.   Pectin

| (31) | The parties’ combined market share for pectin does not exceed 25 %, neither on a worldwide nor on an EEA-wide basis, with only a very limited increment. The position of the market leader, CP Kelco and the current number 2 (Danisco) will not be affected by the merger. This assessment would not change when alternative markets (e.g. worldwide markets, markets for apple/citrus or markets according to the methoxyl content) were to be distinguished, because Cargill’s position on these markets would be even weaker. |

5.   Vertical effects (crude seed oil)

| (32) | Although, on the basis of a hypothetical definition of an upstream market for crude soy oil in the EEA, the proposed transaction technically gives rise to a vertically affected market, it does not raise any vertical concerns, mainly because DFI and Cargill buy ready-made fluid non-GM lecithin from third parties and do not use non-GM raw material from their own production to produce non-GM lecithin. |

Although, on the basis of a hypothetical definition of an upstream market for crude soy oil in the EEA, the proposed transaction technically gives rise to a vertically affected market, it does not raise any vertical concerns, mainly because DFI and Cargill buy ready-made fluid non-GM lecithin from third parties and do not use non-GM raw material from their own production to produce non-GM lecithin.

VII.   CONCLUSION

| (33) | The decision, therefore, concludes that, the proposed concentration will not significantly impede effective competition in the Common Market or in a substantial part of it. |

I.   MARKET DEFINITIONS

Introduction

| (7) | The transaction at hand concerns the pay-TV sector in France. This sector is organised essentially as follows. Upstream are the holders of rights to broadcast programmes (films, series, sports events, etc.). At the intermediate level, channel producers produce their own programmes internally and/or acquire the broadcasting rights for the programmes (films, series, sports events, etc.) that are to constitute the channel content. Downstream, distributors purchase from producers the right to broadcast their channels and offer subscription-based pay-TV channel packages. Pay-TV offerings can be delivered to final consumers by various means, the main ones in France being cable, satellite, DSL and terrestrial (analogue and digital). |

the form of delivery: conventional (linear) TV channels and ‘non-linear’ TV services (pay per view (PPV) and video on demand (VoD)).

| (9) | On upstream markets, DSL television operators in France are engaged mainly in the purchase of VoD broadcasting rights. Although it did not produce a VoD service prior to the transaction, Télé 2 was nevertheless a potential entrant to the market for purchase of VoD broadcasting rights. For purposes of the competition assessment of the transaction at hand and on the basis of the findings of the market survey, a separate market must be defined for the acquisition of VoD broadcasting rights to films. |

‘Intermediate’ markets for the distribution of channels

| (10) | These intermediate markets bring together TV channel producers and distributors of pay-TV services. Commission decisions have consistently drawn a distinction between free channels, which are chiefly financed by advertising revenues (public channels may also be financed by public funds), and pay-TV channels, which are mainly financed by the fees paid by distributors. |

| (11) | The Commission has on several occasions considered a breakdown based on the themes of the channels (in particular premium and sports channels), but has not yet reached a definite decision on this issue. Although it is not necessary to reach a definitive conclusion on this question, the Commission’s analysis is that an attractive package is a ‘basic’ package made up of several main themes (premium, film, youth, sport and news) plus a number of other themes that are more or less substitutable for one another. |

| (12) | In principle the competition authorities do not apply a breakdown by technical means of delivery, i.e. do not distinguish between different broadcasting platforms such as cable, satellite or, more recently, DSL, since in principle producers want their channels to be distributed as widely as possible in order to maximise revenues and, at the very least, to have a presence on all the broadcasting platforms through exclusive rights for more than one platform. |

The downstream market for retail distribution of pay-TV services

| (13) | The Commission’s consistent practice has been to consider distribution of pay TV and free TV as two separate product markets. Pay TV and free TV service offerings are not very substitutable from the standpoint of demand. The investigation of the case at hand does not challenge this basic distinction. |

| (14) | The market survey carried out in connection with the transaction tends to confirm that it is not necessary to segment the market according to the different means of broadcasting pay TV (cable, satellite, DSL, terrestrial), particularly in view of the growing convergence of different platforms in terms of content. Nor, for the purposes of the case at hand, is it necessary to give an opinion on whether the emerging TV services via mobile telephony platforms form a separate market, since, on the one hand, SFR is a mobile telephony operator prior to the transaction and, on the other, Télé 2’s mobile telephony business is not involved in the transaction. |

Geographic markets

| (15) | In line with the position consistently taken in its decisions, the Commission has applied a national dimension to all the markets defined above. As regards the acquisition of content (rights or channels), the negotiations between providers and customers are organised on a national basis regardless of whether the rights are over national or foreign content. With regard to the downstream pay-TV market, the different means of delivery either cover the whole of the national territory (satellite) or are gradually covering all or a large part of it (DTT, DSL and cable). It should also be noted that pay-TV distributors have a uniform tariff policy for the whole of the country. |

II.   COMPETITION ANALYSIS

Operation of the market before the notified transaction

| (16) | At present, before the transaction, the Vivendi group distributes pay TV in France direct by satellite and by terrestrial transmission. Vivendi’s channel packages are also available by DSL. But without the transaction Vivendi has no DSL infrastructure of its own, and to distribute these channels it has to make use of DSL operators’ networks. Thus the DSL operators act only as carriers of Vivendi’s packages and never as distributors; Vivendi keeps the direct commercial relationship with subscribers to its packages for itself. |

Thus the DSL operators act only as carriers of Vivendi’s packages and never as distributors; Vivendi keeps the direct commercial relationship with subscribers to its packages for itself.

| (17) | On the pay-TV market, therefore, DSL operators such as Télé 2 act as distributors only in respect of their own, ‘proprietary’ packages, that is to say packages of channels and television services for which they themselves acquire the broadcasting rights from the producers and which they then offer direct to the final consumer. These proprietary packages are marketed as part of what are known as ‘multiple-play’ offerings, which also include telecommunications services such as telephone services or high-speed Internet access. |

| (18) | The DSL and digital terrestrial television (DTT) platforms are the most dynamic forms of distribution and the main vectors of growth in the market for pay TV in France, while growth in the numbers of satellite and cable subscribers has been relatively moderate. Given the increase forecast in the number of households with a DSL connection in France in the next few years, the number of subscribers to the DSL operators’ multiple-play offerings should in the nature of things continue to grow rapidly. |

Given the increase forecast in the number of households with a DSL connection in France in the next few years, the number of subscribers to the DSL operators’ multiple-play offerings should in the nature of things continue to grow rapidly.

| (19) | The dynamism of the DSL operators is due to the comparative advantages they have over other platforms:

they have the commercial advantages of multiple-play, which are not available to satellite and DTT (high-speed Internet, IP telephone services, television, and gradually also mobile telephone services);

they also have technical advantages, in that their services are provided by conventional telephone line (copper pair), and they can offer innovative services such as VoD (unlike satellite and DTT, for want of a return path) as well as conventional PPV services.

| (20) | However, the market survey showed that the DSL operators’ own television packages currently exert only weak competitive pressure on the Vivendi group’s offerings as a result of their lack of access to attractive television content. This is the direct result of the exclusive contracts concluded by Vivendi with almost all the producers of the most attractive and best-known channels in France, whether outsiders or producers belonging to its own group. |

Horizontal effects

| (21) | On the basis of the information gathered during the second stage of the investigation, the Commission estimates Vivendi’s share of the market at between [60-70] % in number of subscribers. In any event, Vivendi’s market share measured in turnover is very much greater than its market share measured in number of subscribers, because of the difference between the selling price of its offerings and those of its competitors. |

| (23) | The small size of Télé 2’s market share may be due to its relatively late entry into the market in pay TV (June 2006), but there is nothing to suggest that Télé 2 plays a special role in the market, or that it can be expected to play such a role in the foreseeable future. According to the factual evidence provided by the notifying party and the third parties questioned during the course of the market survey, Télé 2’s current market share is generally representative of the competition it exerts or might come to exert in the market. The market survey showed that Télé 2 has no specific advantages over other DSL operators, and consequently that in the absence of the present transaction it could not be expected to grow more rapidly than the average for the market. |

Vertical effects

| (25) | The second stage of the investigation — bearing out the serious concerns expressed in the decision to initiate proceedings — clearly confirmed that Vivendi’s incentive to avoid favouring any particular DSL operator in terms of access to content (channels and programmes) will disappear or will be very substantially reduced post-merger. Once Vivendi becomes a fully fledged DSL operator, its incentive to avoid discriminating between DSL operators will be removed. It will have an interest in favouring SFR/Télé 2, in order to capture for itself the biggest share possible in the growth in the DSL segment of the downstream market in the distribution of pay TV. |

| (26) | Vivendi’s very substantial position in the upstream and intermediate markets would enable it to boost the proprietary package of SFR/Télé 2 considerably by giving it attractive and/or differentiated content (channels or broadcasting rights) which is not accessible to other DSL operators or which is available to them only on terms less advantageous than those granted to SFR/Télé 2. Insofar as the telecommunications component (telephone and Internet) of DSL operators’ multiple-play offerings is relatively standard, such a strengthening of the television component in Télé 2’s multiple-play offering would differentiate it strongly and would make it a great deal more attractive. |

The position of DSL operators on the downstream market in the distribution of pay TV would be significantly weakened, and this would also weaken their position as potential buyers of rights for the distribution of channels or the broadcasting of television programmes. Vivendi’s negotiating position in the upstream and intermediate markets would be greatly reinforced by the broadening of its subscriber base. |

Conclusion

| (28) | In conclusion, the proposed transaction as originally notified might weaken the emerging competitive pressure exerted by DSL operators on the downstream market in the distribution of pay TV, which is already fragile as a result of the very strong position held by Vivendi in all markets for pay TV in France. The weakening of potential competition from DSL operators in the downstream market would produce a corresponding reinforcement of the very strong positions held by Vivendi in the upstream and intermediate markets. |

III.   REMEDIES

| (29) | In order to address the risks to competition set out above, SFR and Vivendi submitted commitments on 13 June 2007. Essentially, the commitments concern access conditions for three types of content: channels (commitments 1 and 2), channel packages and mini-packages (commitment 3) and VoD rights (commitment 4). |

‘Category 3’ channels are ‘linear thematic channels produced by third parties (including minority shareholders in Canal+ France), for which Vivendi Group does not hold exclusive xDSL distribution rights’.

| (31) | Under commitment 1, Vivendi undertakes not to offer more favourable conditions to SFR/Télé 2 than to other DSL operators in respect of the channels it produces or the channels for which it holds or would hold exclusive xDSL distribution rights. Under this commitment, Vivendi must offer the channels distributed by SFR/Télé2 to all DSL operators on normal market conditions which are not less favourable than those granted to SFR/Télé 2. |

| (34) | Commitment 2 includes a revision clause enabling the Commission to have ex ante control over any possible acquisition of exclusive DSL rights for Category 3 channels by SFR/Télé 2 and to ensure that such an acquisition does not in practice deprive other DSL operators of the possibility of developing their own television offers independently of Vivendi. |

Commitment 2 includes a revision clause enabling the Commission to have ex ante

| (35) | Commitment 3 bars Vivendi from granting SFR/Télé 2 subscribers preferential access to the channel packages it distributes, namely: Canal+ Le Bouquet (which currently includes four premium channels, dominated by first transmission of sporting events and films) and the Canal Satellite and TPS packages, which, in their various forms, bring together dozens of thematic channels (youth, news, discovery, repeated films, etc.). Canal+ Le Bouquet and the Canal Satellite and TPS packages are premium pay-TV offerings in France, for which there is no immediate alternative in the French market. They are therefore an important addition for subscribers to DSL operators’ multiple-play offers who wish to have access to a wide-ranging pay-TV offer. |

| (36) | Commitment 3 is also applicable to PPV services produced by Vivendi, now or in the future. It therefore applies to, among others, the PPV service Foot+, which distributes sport content that is highly attractive (and therefore important in terms of winning customers) and sets the service apart from the rest. |

| (37) | Under commitment 4, Vivendi and SFR undertake not to acquire exclusive VoD rights to recent American and French films. The aim of this commitment is to enable DSL operators competing with SFR/Télé 2 to acquire VoD rights to such films, inasmuch as they constitute important content which helps to distinguish the various pay-TV offerings. A revision clause has been introduced in case market practice trends show that Vivendi’s competitors are acquiring exclusive VoD rights. |

| (39) | The duration of the commitments is five years. This appears sufficient given the dynamics of new technology markets. This five-year period has the added advantage of corresponding to the duration of the commitments given to the French competition authorities at the time of the Canal Satellite/TPS merger. |

IV.   CONCLUSION

| (41) | Provided that SFR and Vivendi fully adhere to their commitments, it can be concluded that the proposed transaction will not significantly impair effective competition in the common market or a in substantial part thereof. Consequently, the notified merger, as amended by the commitments submitted by SFR and Vivendi, is declared compatible with the common market and the functioning of the EEA Agreement, in accordance with Articles 2(2), 8(2) and 10(2) of the Merger Regulation and Article 57 of the EEA Agreement. |
