      Pleas in law and main arguments
   
   
               1.
            
            
               The Appellant founds its Appeal on a single plea concerning the erroneous interpretation of Article 100(2) of the Financial Regulation (1) and Article 149(2) of the Implementing Rules.
            
         
               2.
            
            
               The Appellant requests the annulment of the Judgment in case T-298/09 since the Commission failed to comply in time with the provisions of Article 100(2) of the FR and 149(2) of the Implementing Rules, that being an essential procedural requirement. In addition, the limited information communicated, with delay, to the Appellant can by no means be considered as sufficient and fulfilling the obligation to state reasons, as provided for by Article 100(2) of the FR, since it did not give any reasons or justification for the respective evaluation and does not contain any information concerning the characteristics and the relative merits of the best-ranked tenderer.
