1.


On 15 July 2009 the Commission received a notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (1) by which Mubadala Development Company PJSC (‘Mubadala’, Abu Dhabi) and Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation (‘Sikorsky’, USA, belonging to the United Technologies (‘UTC’) group) acquire within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Council Regulation joint control of MIL MRO JV (‘JV’, United Arab Emirates) by way of purchase of shares in a newly created company constituting a joint venture.










2.


The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:






—


UTC: high technology products and services for the building systems and aerospace industries worldwide,










—

—


JV: maintenance, repair and overhaul (‘MRO’) services for military fixed wing and rotary wing aircraft as well as related modification and upgrade services, supply chain management services and maintenance contract management services.
