AGREEMENT

for the termination of Bilateral Investment Treaties between the Member States of the European Union

THE CONTRACTING PARTIES,

THE KINGDOM OF BELGIUM,

THE REPUBLIC OF BULGARIA,

THE CZECH REPUBLIC,

THE KINGDOM OF DENMARK,

THE FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF GERMANY,

THE REPUBLIC OF ESTONIA,

THE HELLENIC REPUBLIC,

THE KINGDOM OF SPAIN,

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC,

THE REPUBLIC OF CROATIA,

THE ITALIAN REPUBLIC,

THE REPUBLIC OF CYPRUS,

THE REPUBLIC OF LATVIA,

THE REPUBLIC OF LITHUANIA,

THE GRAND DUCHY OF LUXEMBOURG,

HUNGARY,

THE REPUBLIC OF MALTA,

THE KINGDOM OF THE NETHERLANDS,

THE REPUBLIC OF POLAND,

THE PORTUGUESE REPUBLIC,

ROMANIA,

THE REPUBLIC OF SLOVENIA and

THE SLOVAK REPUBLIC,

HAVING in mind the Treaty on European Union (TEU) and the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) and general principles of Union law,

HAVING in mind the rules of customary international law as codified in the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties (VCLT),

RECALLING that the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) held in Case C-478/07 Budějovický Budvar that provisions laid down in an international agreement concluded between two Member States cannot apply in the relations between those two States if they are found to be contrary to the EU Treaties,

CONSIDERING that, in compliance with the obligation of Member States to bring their legal orders in conformity with Union law, they must draw the necessary consequences from Union law as interpreted in the judgment of the CJEU in Case C-284/16 Achmea (Achmea judgment),

CONSIDERING that investor-State arbitration clauses in bilateral investment treaties between the Member States of the European Union (intra-EU bilateral investment treaties) are contrary to the EU Treaties and, as a result of this incompatibility, cannot be applied after the date on which the last of the parties to an intra-EU bilateral investment treaty became a Member State of the European Union,

SHARING the common understanding expressed in this Agreement between the parties to the EU Treaties and intra-EU bilateral investment treaties that, as a result, such a clause cannot serve as legal basis for Arbitration Proceedings,

UNDERSTANDING that this Agreement should cover all investor-State arbitration proceedings based on intra-EU bilateral investment treaties under any arbitration convention or set of rules, including the Convention on the Settlement of Investment Disputes between States and Nationals of Other States (ICSID Convention) and the ICSID arbitration rules, the Permanent Court of Arbitration (PCA) arbitration rules, the Arbitration Institute of the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce (SCC) arbitration rules, the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) arbitration rules, the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL) arbitration rules and ad hoc arbitration,

NOTING that certain intra-EU bilateral investment treaties, including their sunset clauses, have already been terminated bilaterally, and that other intra-EU bilateral investment treaties have been terminated unilaterally and the period of application of their sunset clauses has expired,

AGREEING that this Agreement is without prejudice to the question of compatibility with the EU Treaties of substantive provisions of intra-EU bilateral investment treaties,

CONSIDERING that this Agreement addresses intra-EU bilateral investment treaties; it does not cover intra-EU proceedings on the basis of Article 26 of the Energy Charter Treaty. The European Union and its Member States will deal with this matter at a later stage,

CONSIDERING that when investors from Member States exercise one of the fundamental freedoms, such as the freedom of establishment or the free movement of capital, they act within the scope of application of Union law and therefore enjoy the protection granted by those freedoms and, as the case may be, by the relevant secondary legislation, by the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, and by the general principles of Union law, which include in particular the principles of non-discrimination, proportionality, legal certainty and the protection of legitimate expectations (Judgment of the CJEU in Case C‐390/12 Pfleger, paragraphs 30 to 37). Where a Member State enacts a measure that derogates from one of the fundamental freedoms guaranteed by Union law, that measure falls within the scope of Union law and the fundamental rights guaranteed by the Charter also apply (Judgment of the CJEU in Case C-685/15 Online Games Handels, paragraphs 55 and 56),

RECALLING that Member States are obliged under the second subparagraph of Article 19(1) TEU to provide remedies sufficient to ensure effective legal protection of investors' rights under Union law. In particular, every Member State must ensure that its courts or tribunals, within the meaning of Union law, meet the requirements of effective judicial protection (Judgment of the CJEU in Case C-64/16 Associação
  Sindical dos Juízes Portugueses, paragraphs 31 to 37),

RECALLING that disputes between the Contracting Parties concerning the interpretation or application of this Agreement pursuant to Article 273 TFEU shall not concern the legality of the measure that is the subject of investor-State arbitration proceedings based on a Bilateral Investment Treaty covered by this Agreement,

BEARING in mind that the provisions of this Agreement are without prejudice to the possibility for the European Commission or any Member State to bring a case before the CJEU based on Articles 258, 259 and 260 TFEU,

RECALLING that in light of the ECOFIN Council conclusions of 11 July 2017, Member States and the Commission will intensify discussions without undue delay with the aim of better ensuring complete, strong and effective protection of investments within the European Union. Those discussions include the assessment of existing processes and mechanisms of dispute resolution as well as the need and, if the need is ascertained, the means to create new or improve relevant existing tools and mechanisms under Union law,

RECALLING that this Agreement is without prejudice to further measures and actions that may be necessary within the framework of Union law in order to ensure a higher level of protection of cross-border investments within the European Union and to create a more predictable, stable and clear regulatory environment to incentivise investments within the internal market,

CONSIDERING that the references to the European Union in this Agreement are to be understood also as references to its predecessor, the European Economic Community and, subsequently, the European Community, until the latter was superseded by the European Union,

HAVE AGREED UPON THE FOLLOWING PROVISIONS:

Structured dialogue for Pending Arbitration Proceedings

1.   An investor party to Pending Arbitration Proceedings may ask the Contracting Party involved in those proceedings to enter into a settlement procedure pursuant to this Article, on condition that:

| (a) | the Pending Arbitration Proceedings have been suspended pursuant to a request to that effect by the investor, and |
| --- | --- |

(a)

the Pending Arbitration Proceedings have been suspended pursuant to a request to that effect by the investor, and

| (b) | if an award has already been issued in the Pending Arbitration Proceedings, but not yet definitively enforced or executed, the investor undertakes not to start proceedings for its recognition, execution, enforcement or payment in a Member State or in a third country or, if such proceedings have already started, to request that they are suspended. |
| --- | --- |

(b)

if an award has already been issued in the Pending Arbitration Proceedings, but not yet definitively enforced or executed, the investor undertakes not to start proceedings for its recognition, execution, enforcement or payment in a Member State or in a third country or, if such proceedings have already started, to request that they are suspended.

The Contracting Party concerned shall reply in writing within two months in accordance with paragraphs 2 to 4.

A Contracting Party may also ask an investor involved in Pending Arbitration Proceedings to enter into a settlement procedure pursuant to this Article. The investor may accept in writing within two months provided that the conditions set out in points (a) and (b) of the first subparagraph are fulfilled.

The reply by the Contracting Party concerned or the acceptance by the investor must state, where relevant, that the settlement procedure is thereby initiated.

2.   A settlement procedure may only be initiated within six months from the termination, pursuant to Article 2 or 3 of this Agreement, of the Bilateral Investment Treaty on the basis of which the Pending Arbitration Proceedings were initiated, by making a request pursuant to paragraph 1 of this Article.

3.   A settlement procedure shall be entered into if the CJEU or a national court has found, in a judgment that has become final, that the State measure being contested in the proceedings referred to in paragraph 1 violates Union law.

4.   A settlement procedure shall not be entered into if the CJEU or a national court has found, in a judgment that has become final, that the State measure being contested in the proceedings referred to in paragraph 1 does not violate Union law. The same applies if the European Commission has adopted a decision which has become definitive finding that the measure does not violate Union law.

5.   If court proceedings, the object of which is to obtain a judgment as referred to in paragraph 3 or 4, are pending, the Contracting Party concerned shall in its reply pursuant to paragraph 1 inform the investor of that fact. The initiation of the settlement procedure shall be suspended until the court proceedings have resulted in a judgment that has become final. The Contracting Party concerned shall inform the investor within two weeks of such judgment. The same applies if the European Commission has adopted a decision which has not yet become definitive.

6.   A settlement procedure may be entered into if a potential violation of Union law caused by the State measure being contested in the proceedings referred to in paragraph 1 can be identified and neither paragraph 3 nor 4 applies.

7.   The settlement procedure shall be overseen by an impartial facilitator with a view to finding between the parties an amicable, lawful and fair out-of-court and out-of-arbitration settlement of the dispute which is the subject of the Arbitration Proceedings. The settlement procedure shall be impartial and confidential. Each party to the settlement procedure shall have the right to make its views known.

8.   The facilitator shall be designated by common agreement of the investor and the Contracting Party concerned acting as respondent in the relevant Pending Arbitration Proceedings. He/she shall be chosen from persons whose independence and impartiality are beyond doubt and who possess the necessary qualifications including in-depth knowledge of Union law. He/she shall not be a national of either the Member State in which the investment took place or the home Member State of the investor and shall not be in a position of conflict of interests. If a common agreement on the choice of the impartial facilitator is not reached within one month of the settlement procedure being initiated, the investor or the Contracting Party concerned acting as respondent in the relevant Pending Arbitration Proceedings shall ask the Director General of the Legal Service of the European Commission to designate a former Member of the Court of Justice of the European Union who shall appoint, after having consulted each party to the dispute, a person fulfilling the criteria set out in this paragraph. An indicative fee schedule for the facilitator is laid down in Annex D.

9.   The facilitator shall ask the investor and the Member State in which the investment took place to provide written submissions within two months of his/her appointment. When the settlement procedure was initiated on the basis of paragraph 6, the facilitator may ask the European Commission to provide, within two months, advice on the relevant issues related to Union law.

10.   The facilitator shall in an impartial manner organise the settlement negotiations and support the parties with a view to reaching an amicable settlement within six months of his/her appointment, or such longer period as the parties may agree. The parties shall participate in good faith in that process. In doing so, he/she shall take due account of rulings by the CJEU or a national court as well as of decisions by the European Commission which have become definitive, and the advice referred to in the last sentence of paragraph 9. The facilitator shall also take into consideration the actions taken in order to comply with the relevant rulings of the CJEU by the Contracting Party concerned and the case-law of the CJEU on the extent of reparations of damages under Union law.

11.   If an amicable settlement is not reached within the timeframe referred to in paragraph 10, the parties to the procedure shall propose within one month a settlement acceptable to them. Each proposal shall be communicated in writing without undue delay to the other party to the procedure for observations. The facilitator shall organise further negotiation on that basis, with the aim of finding a mutually acceptable solution to the dispute.

12.   Within one month from the communication of the proposals and taking into account the further exchange of views referred to in paragraph 11, the facilitator shall make a final written proposal for an amended amicable settlement. Within one month from receipt of that proposal, each party to the procedure shall decide whether to accept the final proposal and communicate that decision in writing to the other party.

13.   If a party to the procedure does not accept the final proposal, it shall provide a written explanation of the reasons for doing so to the other party to the procedure without undue delay, where necessary removing any confidential information. Each party to the procedure shall bear its own costs and half of the fees for the facilitator and related to logistics of the settlement procedure.

14.   If an agreement on the terms of the settlement is reached, the parties to the procedure shall accept those terms in a legally binding manner without undue delay. The terms of the settlement:

| (a) | must include:






  (i) | an obligation for the investor to withdraw the arbitration claim or renounce execution of an award already issued, but not yet definitively enforced or executed, or, where relevant, to take into account any compensation previously paid in the Pending Arbitration Proceedings with a view to avoiding double‐compensation, and |
| --- | --- | --- |

(c)

where relevant, no settlement agreement was reached as a result of the structured dialogue pursuant to Article 9.

3.   For greater certainty, the provisions of Bilateral Investment Treaties terminated pursuant to this Agreement shall not be considered as part of the applicable law in proceedings brought before a national court pursuant to this Agreement.

4.   For greater certainty, the provisions of this Article shall not be construed as creating any new judicial remedies which would not be available to the investor under the applicable national law.

With reference to the above mentioned case, [name of host Member State], in which the Claimant is established, and [name of defending Member State] hereby inform the Arbitral Tribunal that the parties to the EU Treaties and intra-EU bilateral investment treaties share the following common understanding, expressed in Article 4(1) of the Agreement for the termination of Bilateral Investment Treaties between the Member States of the European Union, that:
