Most notably, the remedy is of a quasi-structural nature given that the MVNO/Service Provider(s) that will purchase capacity under the MBA commitment will commit upfront to purchase a significant amount of capacity from the merged entity at a fixed price. Hence, the MVNO/Service Provider(s) will have a strong incentive to compete effectively as they will have pre-purchased a significant amount of capacity that will need to be monetised. This capacity-based model is more attractive from a competition point of view than the standard MVNO/Service Provider contracts where these players pay the host MNO host on a per usage basis. Indeed, under the standard ‘pay as you go’ MVNO/Service Provider contracts, additional customers/traffic imply incremental payments to the MNO. Under the capacity-based model enshrined in the MBA commitment, there are no such network related incremental costs when acquiring new customers. In this respect, the capacity-based model comes closer to the cost structure of an MNO and hence provides similar incentives to acquire additional customers at the margin. This implies that the MVNO/Service Provider(s) entering into the MBA commitment with the merged entity can act as effective constraints on the MNOs.

The Commission concluded the following. Based on the analysis of the economic and legal context, Sandoz was, at the time it concluded the agreement with Janssen-Cilag, a close and (at least) potential competitor of Janssen-Cilag. The agreement included a non-entry mechanism whereby Janssen-Cilag’s monthly payments would have ceased if Sandoz or any third party entered the market. Accordingly, Sandoz did stay out of the Dutch market with its own fentanyl depot patch for the entire duration of the agreement (from 11 July 2005 to 15 December 2006). As a consequence of the agreement, Janssen-Cilag’s close (at least) potential generic competitor was excluded from the market at a time when the threat of its market entry was imminent.

In order to address the competition concerns identified by the Commission, the notifying parties submitted commitments. The central element of these commitments was the commitment to ensure that De Vijver Media will meet all reasonable requests from TV distributors to distribute the channels Vier, Vijf and any future basic pay TV channel on fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory terms. Any TV distributor who intends to offer retail TV services in Telenet's footprint can, if it so wishes, obtain a licence for the entire territory of Belgium. De Vijver Media must not only license the channels, but also ancillary rights. These are the rights to include the TV programmes from the channel in a service that is linked to the channel, such as catch-up TV, multi-screen services or PVR (a service allowing viewers to record and watch programmes when they want). Linked services are offered as part of the viewing experience of channels and are offered to end-users simultaneously or shortly before or after the linear transmission of the channel.
