I øvrigt er licenstagerne beskyttet mod indbyrdes passiv konkurrence for en indledende periode på højst fem år.
The Regulations define the limits to the restrictions of competition which may be included in such agreements.
Endvidere opregnes der i forordningen en række andre forpligtelser, der ligeledes er fritaget, eller som ikke kan anfægtes set fra et konkurrencemæssigt synspunkt.
Provision is made in both cases for an opposition pro­cedure in respect of agreements containing obligations which, though not expressly precluded from exemption, are not expressly exempted either.
regler for første gang blev anvendt på en franchiseaftale, der udelukkende vedrørte tjenesteydelser. Den fandt, at kontrakten, der var anmeldt af ServiceMaster, og som vedrørte oprettelsen af et europæisk franchisenet, der skulle levere tjenesteydelser inden for rengøring og vedligeholdelse til private og forretningskunder, opfyldte betingelserne for at opnå fritagelse i henhold til Traktatens artikel 85, stk. 3.
Restrictive obligations which confer terri­torial protection against manufacture, use or sale between the licensor and the licensee are generally exempted for a period which cannot, for each territory allotted within the common market, exceed 10 years from the date of signature of the first licensing agreement concluded by the licensor for that territory and for the same technology.

Kommissionen fandt, at Sabena havde misbrugt sin dominerende stilling på det belgiske marked for elektronisk reservation af plads på fly ved at søge at udelukke en konkurrent fra markedet, hvilket er en særlig alvorlig overtrædelse.
The ServiceMaster decision means that, as far as application of the competition rules is concerned, service franchises qualify for the same treatment as distribution fran­chises.
Denne beslutning er i overensstemmelse med forordning (EØF) nr. 2672/88, der blev vedtaget om edb­reservationssystemer af Kommissionen i juli i år2), hvori der bl.a. fastsættes betingelser for luftfartsselskabernes adgang til disse syste­mer.

The offence was con­sidered particularly serious because Sabena's objective had been to drive a com­petitor out of the market.
Det andet program vedrører støtte til forskning og udvikling ydet gennem industriudviklingsrådet for Nordirland (Industrial Development Board for Northern Ireland) til alle typer af virksomheder i regionen. Budgettet for ordningen anslås at ville andrage 5 mio pund (7,6 mio ecu) for 1988/1989.
Only a moderate fine was imposed, however, because the infringement had been of fairly short dur­ation (Sabena having finally admitted LEA to the Saphir system) and because it was the first time the Commission had applied the EEC competition rules to computerized flight reservation systems.
Regionalstøtte
State aid 3
Kommissionen godkendte den 3. november en portugisisk statslig støtteplan til for del for skibsbygning.
On 30 November the Commission decided to give the go-ahead to a small business aid scheme aimed at modernizing hotel accommodation.
Støtten til skibsværfterne omfatter støtte til kontraktbetinget produktion, der vil kunne andrage 9,5% af kontraktens værdi inden støtte, og lån ydet inden for rammerne af OECD's »eksportkreditordning for skibe«. De portugisiske rede rier vil kunne få støtte i form af lån på gunstige vilkår.
The programme, which involves a substantial increase in the firm's R & D expenditure, is the final stage of a costly restructuring plan embarked upon in 1984 by Standard Electrica, which has greatly reduced its workforce and divested itself of a heavily loss-making subsidary.
Kommissionen har sikret sig, at støtten ikke alene eller sammen med anden støtte overstiger maksimumsloftet for produktionsstøtte, der for øjeblikket af Kommissionen er fastsat til 28%.
The intensity of the aid is within the Com­munity R & D aid guidelines,5bearing in mind the particular risks stemming from the size of the programme and the firm's current financial position.
For små skibe til en pris af under 6 mio ecu, har den portugisiske regering forpligtet sig til at påse, at den samlede støtte i intet tilfælde overstiger 20% af loftet for denne type skibe.
The Commission also took account, in assessing the aid, of the contribution the programme could make to achieving Community objectives in the telecommunications field, strengthening Europe's competitive position in that field and reducing the continuing technology gap between Spain and the rest of the Com­munity.

Kommissionen besluttede at godkende en særlig fireårig plan med et budget på 200 mio DM til fordel for området omkring Aachen.
On 3 November the Commission gave the go-ahead to a scheme to support tourism in the Azores.
Ledigheden i dette område ligger ganske vist under det niveau, Kommissionen normalt kræver skal være til stede, for at den kan godkende regionalstøtte, men lukningen af den lokale kulmine vil medføre et alvorligt tab af beskæftigelse (ca. 7 700).
The scheme is in fact a three-year extension to an existing scheme (whose budget is accordingly being

The first is designed to encourage small firms in North­ern Ireland (those with up to 50 employees) to keep abreast of technological progress and introduce new products and processes with a view to increasing their profitability and efficiency and to strengthen the techno­logical base of industry in Northern Ireland.
En sådan støtte ville ikke normalt blive ydet af en privat investor, der opererer under normale markedsforhold.
The second scheme relates to R & D aid granted under the auspices of the Industrial Development Board for Northern Ireland and is available to all companies in Northern Ireland.
Kommissionen besluttede den 3. november at indlede den i EØF-Traktatens artikel 93, stk. 2, fastsatte procedure vedrørende italiensk statsstøtte til en producent af kontaktlinser og briller, der har fået sin gæld slettet.
On 3 November the Commission approved the 17th General Plan for joint Federal/Länder regional aid in Germany and two special regional development pro­grammes designed to provide alternative employment in certain coal and steel areas.
Den pågældende virksomhed har 374 ansatte og er specialist i fremstilling af kontaktlinser.
The 17th General Plan is to run for a fouryear period up to 31 December 1991 and has a budget for 1988 of DM 3.5 billion (around ECU 1.6 billion) to be paid out in the form of direct grants, interest subsidies, guarantees, etc.
Under en såvel produktionsmæssig som finansiel omstrukturering er halvdelen af virksomhedens kapital i 1986 afhændet til et selskab i den private sektor. Samtidig slettedes en gæld på 17 mia lire (11 mio ecu).
The Portuguese Government has opted for a scheme under Chapter II of the Sixth Directive on aid to shipbuilding.2It is to apply to all Portu­guese shipyards except the Setenave yard, which will be subject to the special tran­sitional provisions of Article 9 of the Direc­tive.
Kommissionen undersøger denne sag for bl.a. at kontrollere sammenhængen mellem støtteforanstaltningerne og omstruktureringen og muligheden for negative virkninger på markedet for optiske produkter — kontaktlinser og briller — i EF.
The aid to shipowners is in the form of soft loans. The Commission first established that implementation of the individual aid measures and of the aid package as a whole would not result in the production aid ceil­ing, currently set at 28%, being exceeded.
Kommissionen traf den 15. november endelig negativ beslutning om et belgisk statsligt projekt, der den 8. februar i år ') havde givet anledning til åbning af den i EØF-Traktatens artikel 93, stk. 2, fastsatte procedure. Der var tale om investeringsstøtte og visse fiskale lem pelser for Belgian Shell, som er ved at opføre et forskningslaboratorium i Ottignies/Louvain-la-Neuve.
The Commission gave clearance for a special fouryear programme for the Aachen/Jülich region, with a budget of DM 200 million.

Som støtte for denne omstruktureringsindsats har den franske stat ydet et lån på 60 mio FF (8,5 mio ecu) og et lån med rentegodtgørelse på 140 mio FF (19,9 mio ecu) til delvis finansiering af investeringer til et samlet beløb af 313 mio FF (44,5 mio ecu).

De vigtigste af de fabrikker, der har modtaget støtte, er beliggende i Lorraine i Frankrig og i Saarland, i Forbundsrepublikken Tyskland, hvor ledigheden ligger betydeligt over gennemsnittet.
The Com­mission took the view that the aid, which had been granted with the sole aim of cover­ing losses incurred in 1987 and 1988 and preventing the company from becoming insolvent, was unlawful as it had not been notified in advance.
Støtten består i, at der opkræves en lavere afgift af varer, der afsættes på markederne i de andre EF-lande, end af varer, der sælges på det franske marked.
The Community footwear industry is going through a difficult period of adjustment, and the award of aid to the less viable firms in the industry poses a major threat to trade in the Community.
Som afslutning på den undersøgelses- procedure, der blev iværksat den 24. marts
On 23 November the Com­mission decided to initiate Article 93(2) pro­ceedings in respect of aid granted in 198687, without prior notification, by the Span­ish central government and several auton­omous regional governments to the dom­estic appliance manufacturer Magefesa.
Kommissionen besluttede den 30. november at indlede den i EØF-Traktatens artikel 93, stk. 2, fastsatte procedure vedrørende støtte fra den wallonske regionalregering til virksomheden U.T.M. (»Tubemeuse«), der fremstiller stålrør. Støtten, der er ydet i form af sikker hedsstillelse i 1986 over for Société Liégeoise de Financement, har betydet, at U.T.M. har kun net realisere et af sine aktiver på gunstige vilkår og således har kunnet fortsætte driften trods selskabets dårlige finansielle situation.
On 15 November the Com­mission took a final negative decision on a Belgian proposal—in respect of which it had initiated the Article 93(2) investigation procedure on 8 Februaryλ —to grant invest­ment aid and certain tax exemptions to Belgian Shell, which is building an R & D laboratory at Ottignies/Louvain-la-Neuve.
Den på gældende sektor er præget af betydelig overkapacitet på verdensplan, og fortsættelsen af den ne aktivitet ved hjælp af statsstøtte er således konkurrencefordrejning og uforenelig med fællesmarkedet.
In the course of the investigation, the Com­mission received confirmation that the aid was intended not so much to finance welldefined R & D projects, as to help purchase a site and cover the cost of building the laboratory (which together represent 87%
Ovennævnte procedure vedrørte derfor ikke blot den pågældende sikkerhedsstillelse, men også vilkårene for salget af U.T.M.s

Competition favourable terms and thus continue trading despite the poor state of its finances. Since the sector is suffering from considerable overcapacity world-wide, the award of aid for steel tube production distorts compe­tition and is incompatible with the proper functioning of the common market.
Kommissionen den 30. november negativ be slutning vedrørende italiensk statsstøtte ydet gennem det offentlige holdingselskab EFIM til Veneziana Vetro, en producent af planglas, der er hjemmehørende i Porto Marghera (Venezia).
This being so, and in view of the intense competition in the petrochemical industry and the fact that Ottignies/Louvain-la-Neuve is not eli­gible for regional aid, the Commission con­cluded that the aid was not justified on Community grounds and ordered the Belgian Government not to pay it.
Der blev i 1987 truffet beslutning om ydelse af støtten til et beløb af 50 mia lire (32,3 mio ecu) i form af en kapitaltilførsel og beslutningen blev offentliggjort i den italienske statstidende, men der er endnu ikke sket nogen udbetaling af støtten.
The investigation will also cover the terms of transactions carried out in 1986 affecting UTM's subsidiaries and the terms of the takeover of UTM by Soconord in 1988.
Kommissionen besluttede den 15. november at indlede proceduren vedrørende over trædelse af EØF-Traktatens artikel 169 mod Spanien på grund af utilstrækkelig tilpasning af monopolet på forarbejdet tobak.
That same day the Commission decided to close an investigation opened on 25 March 19861into aid granted to French tyre manufacture Kléber and to approve the aid.
Kommissionen finder ikke, at Spanien har taget alle de nødvendige foranstaltninger til at efterkomme denne bestemmelse.
To support the com­pany's restructuring effort, the French Government made available a grant of FF 60 million (ECU 8.5 million) and a subsi­dized loan of FF 140 million (ECU 19.9 million) to part-finance investments total­ling FF 313 million (ECU 44.5 million).
Åbningen af det spanske marked gennem fastsættelsen af importkontingenter for forarbejdet tobak hidrørende fra de andre medlemsstater med henblik på frit salg har således hidtil ikke haft konkrete resultater.
Along with the new investments, financial restructuring took place at a cost of FF 1.47 billion, which was borne entirely by the parent company and its financial partners. The Commission took account of the fact that the restructuring programme reduced capacity and production.
Penge- og finansieringsinstitutter samt selskabsret
The main plants to benefit from the aid are located in Lor­raine and the Saarland, where unemploy­ment is well above average.
Kommissionen vedtog den 23. november en negativ beslutning vedrørende en del af den offentlige støtte til Valeo. en producent af biltilbehør.
On 23 November the Com­mission decided to initiate Article 93(2) pro­ceedings in respect of export aid for French foundry products.
Valeo fik i 1985 og 1986 lån med rentegodtgørelse fra Fonds Industriel de Modernisation ') til et samlet beløb af 160 mio FF (ca. 23 mio ecu) til finansiering af investeringer til et beløb af 227 mio FF (32 mio ecu) med henblik på at tage avancerede fremstillingsprocesser og -teknikker i anvendelse.
