(Case COMP/M.4313 — Goldman Sachs/Borealis/Associated British Ports (II))

Candidate case for simplified procedure

(2006/C 163/05)

(Text with EEA relevance)

1.
On 6 July 2006, the Commission received a notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to
Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (1) by which Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (‘Goldman
Sachs’ USA), Borealis Infrastructure Management Inc. (‘Borealis’ Canada), and GIC Special Investments Pte
Ltd (‘GIC’ Singapore) acquire within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Council Regulation joint control
of the whole of Associated British Ports Holdings PLC (‘AIB’, UK), via purchase of shares.

2.

The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:

— The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. is a global investment banking, securities and investment management

firm that provides a wide range of banking, securities and investment services worldwide.

— Borealis Infrastructure Management Inc.

is one of the largest infrastructure investors in the world
(which is in turn owned by Ontario Municipal Employees Retirement System, one of Canada's largest
pension funds).

— Associated British Ports Holdings PLC is a UK company, constituted under the Transport Act 1981. Its
principal business activities are in UK port operations and provision of related services, including steve-
doring activities, to ship and cargo owners and other port users.

On preliminary examination, the Commission finds that the notified concentration could fall within
3.
the scope of Regulation (EC) No 139/2004. However, the final decision on this point is reserved. Pursuant
to the Commission Notice on a simplified procedure for treatment of certain concentrations under Council
Regulation (EEC) No 4064/89 (2) it should be noted that this case is a candidate for treatment under the
procedure set out in the Notice.

The Commission invites interested third parties to submit their possible observations on the proposed

4.
operation to the Commission.

Observations must reach the Commission not later than 10 days following the date of this publication.
Observations can be sent to the Commission by fax (fax No (32-2) 296 43 01 or 296 72 44) or by post,
