concerning a draft decision relating to Case COMP/M.3848 — Sea-Invest/EMO-EKOM

(2007/C 251/06)

any competition concerns due to unilateral effects, strengthening the dominance of Sea-Invest or enabling
a price increase by EMO-EKOM, or coordinated effects in terminal services for hinterland traffic for coal
and iron ore.

5. The Advisory Committee agrees with the Commission's assessment that the variations in the joint
lead to any competition concerns due to coordinated effects in accordance with

venture do not

serious doubts as to its compatibility with the common market in accordance with Article 10(2) of the
Merger Regulation.

compatible with the Common Market and with the functioning of the EEA Agreement in accordance

Prior notification of a concentration

(Case COMP/M.4282 — Mondadori/Emap France)

Candidate case for simplified procedure

(2006/C 168/06)

(Text with EEA relevance)

1.
On 11 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 the undertaking Arnoldo Mondadori
Editore S.p.A (‘Mondadori’, Italy) belonging to the Fininvest group acquires within the meaning of Article
3(1)(b) of the Council Regulation control of the whole of the undertaking Emap International Magazines
SAS (‘Emap France’, France), by way of purchase of shares.

2.

The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:

— for Mondadori: is a subsidiary of the Italian multimedia group Fininvest, and is mainly active in the

field of publishing and distribution of books and magazines as well as printing and radio in Italy;

— for Emap France: is mainly active in the field of publishing and distribution of French language maga-

zines and to a marginal extent of publishing and distribution of books in France.

3.
On preliminary examination, the Commission finds that the notified transaction could fall within 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 (EC) No 139/2004 (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 (No (32-2) 296 43 01 or 296 72 44) or by post,
