However, the relevant conditions of the Rescue and Restructuring Guidelines (Section 3.1) are not fulfilled in this case.
Vračilo bi moralo pokriti čas od takrat, ko je upravičenec prejel ugodnost, t.j. ko je bila pomoč dana upravičencu na voljo, do dejanskega vračila, zneskom za vračilo pa se prištejejo obresti do dejanskega vračila.
The guarantees were not terminated after 6 months and the Greek authorities did not notify a restructuring plan that would restore the company's viability, whilst there were no compensatory measures implemented in order to mitigate the distortions of competition.
SKLEPNE UGOTOVITVE
Finally, there is no evidence that the aid was limited to the minimum necessary, notably through a significant own contribution of the aid beneficiary.
Ukrepa št. 1 in 5 nista pomoč v smislu člena 107(1) Pogodbe.
The authorities did not provide a liquidation plan.
Grčija je nezakonito izvajala ukrepe št. 2, 3, 4 in 6 ter s tem kršila člen 108(3) Pogodbe.
As regards Measure 6, the Greek authorities have argued that it was compatible with the Temporary Framework and the temporary guarantee scheme and in any event that it qualified as rescue aid.
Zlasti ukrepi št. 2, 4 in 6 (državna poroštva iz let 2008, 2010 in 2011) v korist družbe Larco so bili državna pomoč v smislu člena 107(1) Pogodbe in niso bili združljivi z notranjim trgom, ker ustrezni pogoji iz Smernic za reševanje in prestrukturiranje niso bili izpolnjeni niti ni bilo nobenih drugih razlogov za združljivost.
The Commission disagrees with the arguments of the Greek authorities.
Ukrep št. 3 (državna udeležba v dokapitalizaciji družbe Larco leta 2009) je bil prav tako državna pomoč in ni bil združljiv s Pogodbo, ker ustrezni pogoji iz Smernic za reševanje in prestrukturiranje niso bili izpolnjeni in ni bilo nobene podlage za združljivost.
It considers that the conditions of the Temporary Framework and the temporary guarantee scheme were not met, since Larco was a firm in difficulty.
Komisija ugotavlja, da se Grčija strinja, da se ta sklep sprejme v angleškem jeziku –
The total amount of the two guarantees exceeded Larco's annual wage bill, the guarantee exceeded 90 % of the loan and 1 % p.a. could not be considered as a market premium, reflecting the risk of default for the guaranteed amount.
SPREJELA NASLEDNJI SKLEP:
As regards the argument that the measure amounted to rescue aid, although the Commission has held discussions with the Greek authorities concerning Larco since 2011, the authorities never mentioned that the 2011 guarantees should be considered as rescue aid and never provided any notification to that effect.
Člen 1
Indeed, in their reply of 16 March 2012 to the questionnaire, the Greek authorities explicitly declared that the company had not benefitted from rescue and/or restructuring aid for the past 10 years.
Neizterjava dolga do ministrstva za finance in bančne garancije namesto predplačila dodatnega davka leta 2010, kar je Grčija izvedla v korist družbe Larco, ne pomenijo državne pomoči v smislu člena 107(1) Pogodbe.
The relevant conditions of the Rescue and Restructuring Guidelines are in any event not fulfilled in this case either.
Člen 2
The 2011 guarantees were not terminated after 6 months and the Greek authorities did not notify a restructuring plan or a liquidation plan.
Državna pomoč, ki znaša 135820824,35 EUR v obliki državnih poroštev v korist družbe Larco General Mining & Metallurgical Company S.A. leta 2008, 2010 in 2011, ter državna udeležba v dokapitalizaciji družbe leta 2009, ki jo je Grčija nezakonito dodelila ter s tem kršila člen 108(3) Pogodbe, nista združljivi z notranjim trgom.
The business plan justifying the need for EUR 30 million for investments cannot form the basis of a compatible restructuring plan for the purposes of the Rescue and Restructuring Guidelines.
Člen 3
That is because that plan did not aim to restore the company's viability, and there were no compensatory measures envisaged or implemented in order to mitigate the distortions of competition.
Upravičenec Grčiji povrne nezdružljivo pomoč iz člena 2.
Finally, there was no evidence that the aid was limited to the minimum necessary, notably through a significant own contribution of the aid beneficiary.
Zneskom, ki jih je treba vrniti, se prištejejo obresti od izplačila pomoči upravičencem do njihovega dejanskega vračila.
The authorities did not provide a liquidation plan either.
Obresti se izračunajo na podlagi obrestnoobrestnega računa, v skladu s poglavjem V Uredbe Komisije (ES) št. 794/2004 [33], kakor je bila spremenjena.
The Commission has not identified any other possible grounds for the compatibility of Measures 2, 4 and 6.
Kar zadeva ukrep št. 3, mora Grčija sporočiti točen(ne) datum(e), kdaj je prispevala k dokapitalizaciji leta 2009.
In the light of the above, the Commission considers Measures 2, 4 and 6 to be incompatible with the internal market.
Grčija prekliče vsa neizvedena izplačila pomoči, navedena v členu 2, z začetkom veljavnosti na datum sprejetja tega sklepa.
Compatibility of measure 3
Člen 4
The Greek authorities did not identify any possible grounds for the compatibility of Measure 3, because they argued that the measure did not constitute State aid.
Vračilo pomoči iz člena 2 se izvede takoj in učinkovito.
Given that the measure constitutes State aid, it should also be assessed with regard to its compatibility under the Rescue and Restructuring Guidelines, for the reasons set out in recital 112 above.
Grčija zagotovi, da se ta sklep izvede v štirih mesecih po uradnem obvestilu o tem sklepu.
However, the relevant conditions of the Rescue and Restructuring Guidelines are not fulfilled in this case either.
Člen 5
The Greek authorities never notified a restructuring plan that would restore the company's viability, and there were no compensatory measures implemented in order to mitigate the distortions of competition.
Grčija v dveh mesecih po tem, ko je bila uradno obveščena o tem sklepu, predloži naslednje informacije:
The Commission has not identified any other possible grounds for the compatibility of this measure.
skupni znesek (glavnica in obresti za vračilo), ki ga je treba izterjati od upravičenca;
Against this background, the Commission considers Measure 3 to be incompatible with the internal market.
natančen opis ukrepov, ki so že sprejeti in načrtovani za uskladitev s tem sklepom;
Recovery
dokumente, ki dokazujejo, da se je od upravičenca zahtevalo vračilo pomoči.
According to the Treaty and the Court's established case-law, the Commission is competent to decide that the Member State concerned must abolish or alter aid when it has found that it is incompatible with the internal market [29].
Grčija obvešča Komisijo o napredku glede nacionalnih ukrepov, sprejetih za izvajanje tega sklepa, dokler se vračanje pomoči iz člena 2 ne konča.
The Court has also consistently held that the obligation on a Member State to abolish aid regarded by the Commission as being incompatible with the internal market is designed to re-establish the previously existing situation [30].
Na zahtevo Komisije takoj predloži vse informacije o že sprejetih in načrtovanih ukrepih za uskladitev s tem sklepom.
In this context, the Court has established that this objective is attained once the recipient has repaid the amounts granted by way of unlawful aid, thus forfeiting the advantage which it had enjoyed over its competitors on the market, and the situation prior to the payment of the aid is restored [31].
Prav tako predloži podrobne informacije o zneskih pomoči in obrestih za vračilo pomoči, ki jih je upravičenec že vrnil.
In line with the case-law, Article 14(1) of Council Regulation (EC) No 659/1999 [32] stated that ‘where negative decisions are taken in cases of unlawful aid, the Commission shall decide that the Member State concerned shall take all necessary measures to recover the aid from the beneficiary […]’.
Člen 6
Thus, given that none of the measures in question were notified to the Commission, in violation of Article 108 of the Treaty and are, therefore, to be considered as unlawful and incompatible aid, they must be recovered in order to re-establish the situation that existed on the market prior to their granting.
Ta sklep je naslovljen na Helensko republiko.
Recovery should cover the time from when the advantage accrued to the beneficiary, that is to say when the aid was put at the disposal of the beneficiary, until effective recovery, and the sums to be recovered should bear interest until effective recovery.
V Bruslju, 27. marca 2014
CONCLUSION
Za Komisijo
Measures 1 and 5 do not constitute aid within the meaning of Article 107(1) of the Treaty.
Podpredsednik
Greece unlawfully implemented Measures 2, 3, 4 and 6 in breach of Article 108(3) of the Treaty.
UL C 136, 15.5.2013, str. 27.
In particular, Measures 2, 4 and 6 (State guarantees of 2008, 2010 and 2011) in favour of Larco constituted State aid within the meaning of Article 107(1) of the Treaty and were incompatible with the internal market, because the relevant conditions of the Rescue and Restructuring Guidelines were not met and no other compatibility grounds were identified.
Glej Drugi program gospodarske prilagoditve za Grčijo – Prvi pregled december 2012, http://ec.europa.eu/economy_finance/publications/occasional_paper/2012/pdf/ocp123_en.pdf.
Measure 3 (the State's participation in the 2009 capital increase of Larco) also constituted State aid and was incompatible with the Treaty, because the relevant conditions of the Rescue and Restructuring Guidelines were not met and no other compatibility basis was identified.
Hellenic Republic Asset Development Fund (HRADF) je delniška družba, ustanovljena 1. julija 2011 za vodenje postopkov privatizacije.
The Commission notes that Greece has agreed the present decision to be adopted in the English language,
Glej opombo št. 1.
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Priporočilo Komisije 2003/361/ES z dne 6. maja 2003 o opredelitvi mikro, malih in srednjih podjetij (UL L 124, 20.5.2003, str. 36).
Article 1
Leta 2004 je znašal 10,3 milijona EUR in se je stalno povečeval ter dosegel 13,5 milijona EUR leta 2011.
The non-collection of debt to the Ministry of Finance and letters of guarantee instead of pre-payment of additional tax in 2010, which Greece has implemented for Larco, do not constitute State aid within the meaning of Article 107(1) of the Treaty.
39 milijonov EUR leta 2004, nič leta 2011;
Article 2
stara družba Larco:
The State aid amounting to EUR 135820824,35 in the form of State guarantees to Larco General Mining & Metallurgical Company S.A. in 2008, 2010 and 2011 and the State's participation to the company's capital increase in 2009, unlawfully granted by Greece in breach of Article 108(3) of the Treaty is incompatible with the internal market.
48,3 milijona EUR leta 2007, 43,8 milijona EUR leta 2011.
Article 3
Opomba 24:
Greece shall recover the incompatible aid referred to in Article 2 from the beneficiary.
Udeležba povezanih družb.
The sums to be recovered shall bear interest from the date on which they were put at the disposal of the beneficiaries until their actual recovery.
Grški organi so naknadno pojasnili, da se zadevni ukrep nanaša na dodatni davek in ne na davčno globo.
The interest shall be calculated on a compound basis in accordance with Chapter V of Commission Regulation (EC) No 794/2004 [33], as amended.
Torej je treba ukrep št. 5 razumeti tako, da se nanaša na dodatni davek in ne na davčno globo, kot je napačno navedeno v sklepu z dne 6. marca 2013.
As regards measure 3, Greece shall provide the exact date(s) when it provided its contribution to the 2009 share capital increase.
Grški zakonik o davku na dohodek 2238/1994 (Uradni list Helenske republike, FEK A 151, 16.9.1994), člen 74(9).
Greece shall cancel all outstanding payments of the aid referred to in Article 2 with effect from the date of adoption of this Decision.

Upravni odbor družbe Larco je leta 2009 glede na negativno stanje lastniškega kapitala predlagal dokapitalizacijo v višini 134 milijonov EUR, trije delničarji pa so to potrdili.

1).
Poleg tega lahko podjetje v skladu s točko 11 Smernic za reševanje in prestrukturiranje velja za podjetje v težavah, „ob prisotnosti običajnih znakov podjetja v težavah, kot so naraščajoče izgube, upadanje prometa, kopičenje zalog, presežna zmogljivost, padanje denarnih tokov, naraščajoči dolgovi, naraščajoči stroški obresti ali zmanjševanje čiste vrednosti sredstev“.
ANNEX
Glede tega je Splošno sodišče navedlo, da je „obstoj negativnega lastniškega kapitala […] mogoče […] šteti za pomemben znak finančnih težav podjetja“ [18].
INFORMATION ABOUT THE AMOUNTS OF AID RECEIVED, TO BE RECOVERED AND ALREADY RECOVERED
Dokazi, ki so jih predložili grški organi, kažejo na to, da se je o dolgu družbe Larco do organizacije OER (ki je bil naknadno prenesen na državo) redno poročalo in se ga zaračunavalo v skladu z dogovorom o poravnavi dolga iz leta 1998.
Identity of the beneficiary — measure
Del dolga je bil izterjan, ko je donosnost družbe to dopuščala.
Total amount of aid received
Komisija je ugotovila, da je bila družba Larco leta 2008 podjetje v težavah.
Total amount of aid to be recovered
Poleg tega letne poroštvene premije v višini 1 % ni mogoče obravnavati, kot da odraža tveganje nevračila posojil, zavarovanih s poroštvom, glede na velike finančne težave družbe Larco in zlasti glede na njeno visoko razmerje med dolgovi in lastniškim kapitalom.
(Principal)
Poleg tega je država dala družbi Larco državno poroštvo že leta 2008.
Total amount already reimbursed
Kot je ugotovljeno v zadevni sodni praksi, državne udeležbe v dokapitalizaciji leta 2009 torej ni mogoče obravnavati ločeno, temveč jo je treba obravnavati v okviru drugih ukrepov pomoči [26].
Principal
Tako državna pomoč, ki jo vključuje ukrep št. 2, znaša 30000000 EUR in je bila dodeljena 22. decembra 2008.
Recovery interest
Državna pomoč, ki jo vključuje ukrep št. 3, znaša 44999999,40 EUR, vendar morajo grški organi razjasniti datum(e) dodelitve.
