The Europe Agreement establishing an Association between the European Communities and their Member States,
of the one part, and the Czech Republic, of the other part (hereinafter referred to as ‘the Europe Agreement’ was
signed in Luxembourg on 4 October 1993 and entered into force on 1 February 1995 (1).

Article 21(5) of the Europe Agreement provides that the Community and the Czech Republic shall examine in
the Association Council, product by product and on an orderly and reciprocal basis, the possibility of granting
each other additional agricultural concessions. On this basis negotiations have been undertaken and were
concluded between the parties.

For the first time, improvements to the preferential agricultural regime of the Europe Agreement were provided
for in the Protocol adjusting trade aspects of the Europe Agreement (2) to take account of the last enlargement of
the Community and the outcome of the GATT Uruguay Round.

Two further rounds of negotiations for improved agricultural trade concessions were concluded on 4 May 2000
and 6 June 2002.

From the one side, the Council decided, by virtue of Council Regulation (EC) No 2433/2000 of 17 October
2000 establishing certain concessions in the form of Community tariff quotas for certain agricultural products
and providing for an adjustment, as an autonomous and transitional measure, of certain agricultural concessions
provided for in the Europe Agreement with the Czech Republic (3), to apply on a provisional basis, as from 1 July
2000, the Community concessions resulting from the 2000 round of negotiations and from the other side the
Government of the Czech Republic took legislative provisions to apply, as from the same date, the equivalent
Czech concessions.

(6)

The abovementioned concessions will be supplemented and replaced on the date of entry into force of this
Protocol by the concessions provided for herein,

HAVE AGREED AS FOLLOWS:

Article 1

The arrangements for import into the Community applicable to certain agricultural products originating in
the Czech Republic as set out in Annexes A(a) and A(b) to this Protocol and the arrangements for import
into the Czech Republic applicable to certain agricultural products originating in the Community as set out
in Annexes B(a) and B(b) to this Protocol shall replace those set out in Annexes XI and XII as referred to in
Article 21(2) and (4), as amended, of the Europe Agreement. The agreement between the Community and
the Czech Republic on reciprocal preferential trade concessions for certain wines, set out in Annex C, shall
form an integral part of this Protocol.

than indicative value, the preferential scheme being determined, within the context of this Annex, by the coverage of the CN code. Where ex CN codes are indicated,

The quota for this product is opened for Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania and the Slovak Republic.
The Community may take into account, in the framework of its legislation and when appropriate the supply needs of its market and the need to maintain its market
balance

2. The minimum import prices, as set out in Article 1, will be respected on a consignment by consignment basis. In the
case of a customs declaration value being lower than the minimum import price, a countervailing duty will be
charged equal to the difference between the minimum import price and the customs declaration value.

3. If the import prices of a given product covered by this Annex show a trend suggesting that the prices could go below
the level of the minimum import prices in the immediate future, the European Commission will inform the Czech
authorities in order to enable them to correct the situation.

4. At the request of either the Community or the Czech Republic, the Association Committee shall examine the func-
tioning of the system or the revision of the level of the minimum import prices. If appropriate, the Association
Committee shall take the necessary decisions.

5. To encourage and promote the development of trade and for the mutual benefit of all parties concerned, a consulta-
tion meeting will be organised three months before the beginning of each marketing year in the Community. This
consultation meeting will take place between the European Commission and the interested European producers' orga-
nisations for the products concerned, of the one part and the authorities', producers' and exporters' organisations of
all the associated exporting countries, of the other part.

During this consultation meeting, the market situation for soft fruit including, in particular, forecasts for production,
stock situation, price evolution and possible market development, as well as possibilities to adapt supply to demand,
will be discussed.
