Article 2
The Principality of Monaco shall issue neither banknotes nor coins, as long as the conditions for issuance have not been agreed to with the European Union. The conditions for issuing euro coins as from 1 January 2011 are laid down in the following Articles.
Article 3
1.   The annual ceiling (in value terms) for the issuance of euro coins by the Principality of Monaco shall include:






 


a fixed part, whose initial amount for 2011 is set at EUR 2 340 000;










 


a variable part, corresponding in value terms to the average per capita coin issuance of the French Republic in the year n-1 multiplied by the number of inhabitants of the Principality of Monaco.




The Joint Committee may revise annually the fixed part with a view to taking into account both inflation — on the basis of HICP inflation of France in the year n-1 — and possible significant trends affecting the euro coins collector market.
2.   The Principality of Monaco may also issue a special commemorative coin and/or collector coins to commemorate special or important events for the Principality. In case this special issuance brings the overall issuance above the ceiling laid down in paragraph 1, the value of that issuance shall be accounted for using the remaining part of the ceiling of the previous year and/or deducted from the ceiling of the following year.
Article 4
1.   Euro coins issued by the Principality of Monaco shall be identical to those issued by the Member States of the European Union which have adopted the euro as far as the face value, legal tender status, technical characteristics, artistic features of the common side and shared artistic features of the national side are concerned.

2.   No later than 1 September each year, the Principality of Monaco shall notify the French Republic of the total volume and face value of the euro coins that it intends to issue during the following year.

Article 7
1.   The Principality of Monaco may issue euro collector coins. These coins shall be included in the annual ceiling stipulated in Article 3.

5.   Notwithstanding the procedure foreseen in paragraph 9 of this Article, the list of texts contained in Annex B shall be amended by a decision of the Joint Committee. To this effect, the Commission shall inform the Principality of Monaco as soon as it adopts a new piece of legislation in one of the domains covered by this Agreement and if it determines that said legislation should be included in the list of acts contained in Annex B.

9.   Before granting authorisation to investment firms seeking to establish themselves in the territory of the Principality of Monaco for the purposes of offering investment services other than investment management for third parties and the transmission of orders, and without prejudice to the obligations laid down in paragraph 6 of the present Article, the Principality of Monaco shall undertake measures equivalent in effect to existing European Union legal acts governing these services. By way of derogation from the procedure laid down in paragraph 5 of the present Article, these acts shall be integrated into the list of acts contained in Annex B by the Commission.
Article 12
1.   The Court of Justice of the European Union shall have exclusive competence for settling any dispute between the parties of this Agreement which may arise from any infringement of this Agreement, and which has not been solved within the Joint Committee.

The judgment of the Court shall be binding on the Parties, which shall take the necessary measures to comply with the judgment within a period to be decided by the Court in its judgment.
