ANNEX

1. Following the submission by the People's Democratic Republic of Algeria (‘Algeria’) of a formal request to revise the schedule for dismantling the tariffs for agricultural products and processed agricultural products at the fifth session of the Association Council held on 15 June 2010 and following six consultation sessions, on 11 July 2011 the Parties agreed on new provisions to modify the tariff arrangements set out in Protocols Nos 2 and 5 to the Euro-Mediterranean Agreement establishing an Association between the European Community and its Member States, of the one part, and the People's Democratic Republic of Algeria, of the other part (‘the Association Agreement’) based on a list of 36 tariff subheadings (34 subheadings for agricultural products and two subheadings for processed agricultural products).

2. In accordance with Article 16 of the Association Agreement, the Party that modifies the arrangements laid down in that Agreement is to provide the other Party with compensation with equivalent effect. The Algerian memorandum of June 2010 envisaged the elimination of preferential tariffs for the Union for 34 tariff subheadings for agricultural products and of two subheadings for processed agricultural products.

3. Following six meetings (from September 2010 to July 2011) resulting in an agreement in the form of a memorandum dated 11 July 2011, the Parties agreed to eliminate 25 preferential tariff subheadings for agricultural products in Protocol No 2 to the Association Agreement and two subheadings for processed agricultural products in Protocol No 5 to the Association Agreement for Union exports to Algeria. They also reached an agreement on the compensation for the Union with the same effect in terms of lost customs duties for Union operators by increasing two preferential tariff subheadings for agricultural products: pure-bred breeding animals of the bovine species and common wheat, other than for sowing. Details of these changes are set out in this Annex.

4. The preferential tariffs initially established in Protocols Nos 2 and 5 to the Association Agreement shall apply to the remaining products referred to in Article 14(2) of that Agreement.
