— The Cannes Extension Agreement

(2007/C 272/06)

1. The Advisory Committee agrees with the Commission that clause 9(a) of the Cannes Extension Agree-

Central Licensing Agreement with a record company and amount, thus, to an indirect price-fixing
arrangement.

ment has the object and may have the effect of crystallising current market structures and preventing any
potential competition from collecting societies towards music publishers and/or record companies.

3. The Advisory Committee agrees with the Commission that the commitments offered are sufficient to
meet the Commission's concerns as to the compatibility of the clauses with Article 81 of the EC Treaty
and Article 53 of the EEA Agreement.

4. The Advisory Committee agrees with the Commission that the proceedings can be concluded by means
of a decision pursuant to Article 9(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1/2003 which will make commitments
binding upon the parties to the Cannes Extension Agreement.

5. The Advisory Committee agrees with the Commission that, in view of the commitments offered, the
preliminary assessment and the observations submitted by interested third parties, there are no longer
grounds for action by the Commission, without prejudice to Article 9(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1/2003.

Union.
