According to Article 9 of the Council Regulation (EC) No 1/2003 (1), the Commission may decide — in cases where it intends to adopt a decision requiring that an infringement is brought to an end and the parties concerned offer commitments to meet the concerns expressed to them by the Commission in its preliminary assessment — to make those commitments binding on the undertakings. Such a decision may be adopted for a specified period and shall conclude that there are no longer grounds for action by the Commission. Such a decision would not conclude whether or not there has been or still is an infringement. According to Article 27(4) of the same Regulation, the Commission shall publish a concise summary of the case and the main content of the commitments. Interested parties may submit their observations within the time limit fixed by the Commission.

Commission notice concerning the anti-dumping measures in force in respect of imports into the Community of certain side-by-side refrigerators originating in the Republic of Korea: change of the address of a company subject to an individual anti-dumping duty

2009/C 145/12

Imports of certain side-by-side refrigerators originating in the Republic of Korea are subject to a definitive anti-dumping duty, imposed by Council Regulation (EC) No 1289/2006 of 25 August 2006 (1) (‘Regulation (EC) No 1289/2006’).

Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd (for convenience referred to in Regulation (EC) No 1289/2006 as ‘Samsung Electronics Corporation’), a company located in the Republic of Korea, whose exports to the Community of certain side-by-side refrigerators are subject to an anti-dumping duty of 0 % imposed by Article 1(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1289/2006, has informed the Commission that on 11 January 2009, it changed its address.

The company has argued that the change of address does not affect its right to benefit from the individual duty rate applied to it under its previous address of:

Samsung Main Bldg, 250, 2-ga Taepyeong-ro Jung-gu Seoul

The company submitted sufficient evidence to establish that the change of the address was, inter alia, due to an internal reorganization of the company resulting in a relocation of the business unit concerned.

The Commission has examined the information provided and has concluded that the change of address in no way affects the findings of Regulation (EC) No 1289/2006. Furthermore, the reference to the company should reflect the name of the company as it was officially registered. Therefore, the reference in Article 1(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1289/2006 to:

Samsung Electronics Corporation Samsung Main Bldg, 250, 2-ga Taepyeong-ro Jung-gu Seoul

should be read as:

Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd 443-742, 416 Meatan-3 Dong Yeongtong-Gu Suwon Kyonggi-Do SOUTH KOREA

The Taric additional code A735 shall apply to:

Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd 443-742, 416 Meatan-3 Dong Yeongtong-Gu Suwon Kyonggi-Do SOUTH KOREA

Although the economic aim of the participants in the infringement was from the beginning to keep their respective market shares at EEA-level stable, the Commission has considered the fact that in the first two and a half years, from March 1998 to the first half of 2000, it has direct evidence of cartel activity for only a part of all European car manufacturers. While this does not mean that other car manufacturers were not the subject of cartel discussions in the first two and a half years, the Commission has taken account of those two and a half years as a ‘roll-out phase’ during which the cartelists only progressively developed their collusive behaviour towards all car manufacturers. It is likely that in this trial phase the carglass suppliers rigged the bids only within selected large accounts. Consequently, the Commission takes as relevant sales for the calculation of the fines for the first ramp-up period only sales by carglass suppliers to those car manufacturers for which there is direct evidence that they were subject to cartel arrangements.
