As such, law 9/2001 did not introduce any changes.
Zato je moralo biti obema pogodbenima strankama, ko je Mestni svet v Madridu v okviru sporazuma o poravnavi iz leta 2011 privolil, da prevzame polno pravno odgovornost za nezmožnost prenosa zemljišča B-32 v skladu z izvedbenim sporazumom iz leta 1998, popolnoma jasno, da zakonit prenos zemljišča B-32 ni mogoč.
Like Real Madrid, Ecologistas en acción draw the Commission's attention to the judgement No 77/2015 of the Tribunal Superior de Justicia de Madrid of 2 February 2015, which annulled the modification of the PGOU with regard to the land around the Bernabéu stadium.
V tem primeru ni jasno, ali bi oškodovanec lahko vložil zahtevek za nadomestilo ali odškodnino, saj pogodba ne obstaja več, za razliko od zahtevka za vrnitev tistega, kar je že dobil v zameno za pogodbo.
The Tribunal Superior found that there was no general interest justifying the urban planning changes linked to the land around the stadium which is mentioned in paragraph 18 of the opening decision.
Glede tega Španija in Real Madrid trdita, da pravna nezmožnost Mestnega sveta v Madridu glede prenosa zemljišča B-32 razveljavi celoten izvedbeni sporazum iz leta 1998 in s tem tudi vrnitev vseh zemljišč, vključenih v ta sporazum in v sporazum o menjavi iz leta 1996, ali, kadar taka vrnitev ni mogoča, vrnitev vrednosti v času izgube, tj. prodaje.
The transaction between Real Madrid and the Madrid City Council was found by that court not to follow considerations of general public interests of the municipality but to be dictated only by the needs of the club in respect to its stadium modernisation project.
Vendar pa ni jasno, ali nezmožnost izvedbe zgolj ene obveznosti v skladu z izvedbenim sporazumom iz leta 1998 s strani ene pogodbene stranke povzroči razveljavitev celotnega sporazuma na podlagi španskega civilnega prava.
The Tribunal Superior de Justicia de Madrid underlined that urban planning decisions of the responsible authorities must serve objectively the general interest and not the interests of one or more land owners and not even the interests of the municipality itself.
Delna razveljavitev je po španski civilni zakonodaji zapleteno vprašanje, Mestni svet v Madridu pa ni pred sklenitvijo sporazuma o poravnavi iz leta 2011 pridobil nikakršnega pravnega svetovanja.
The other interested parties did not contribute additional elements of fact or law.
V zvezi s tem Komisija ugotavlja, prvič, da bi moral v skladu z izvedbenim sporazumom iz leta 1998 Mestni svet v Madridu na Real Madrid prenesti tri ločena zemljišča v vrednosti 13522772 EUR, eno od teh zemljišč je bilo zemljišče B-32, ki se je nahajalo na ločenem območju in je bilo zato nepovezano z drugima dvema (zemljišči 33 in 34, ki sta se nahajali na območju Julian Camarillo Sur).
ASSESSMENT OF THE AID
Poleg tega je bilo zemljišče B-32 ocenjeno na 595194 evrov, kar predstavlja manj kot 5 % vrednosti celotnega izvedbenega sporazuma iz leta 1998.
Preliminary observation on the 2011 urban development agreement
Zato s strani Real Madrida ni bilo posebnega zanimanja za vključitev zemljišča B-32 v izvedbeni sporazum iz leta 1998, in če bi pogodbeni stranki v času sklenitve izvedbenega sporazuma iz leta 1998 vedeli za pravno nezmožnost prenosa tega zemljišča, bi ga verjetno nadomestili z drugim zemljiščem podobne vrednosti.
According to the information provided by Spain and Real Madrid, judgment No 77/2015 of the Tribunal Superior de Justicia de Madrid of 2 February 2015 annulled the modification of the PGOU with regard to the land surrounding Real Madrid's Bernabéu stadium.
Tretjič, sam sporazum o poravnavi iz leta 2011 dokazuje, da sta pogodbeni stranki želeli pravno nezmožnost prenosa zemljišča B-32 obravnavati ločeno od izvajanja celotnega izvedbenega sporazuma iz leta 1998 in nista postavljali pod vprašaj veljavnosti prenosa drugih zemljišč iz tega sporazuma.
As a result of that judgment, the 2011 urban development agreement has been cancelled between the parties.
Poleg tega je v predložitvi podatkov z dne 18. junija 2012 med predhodno preiskavo zadevnega primera Španija izjavila, da sta se pogodbeni stranki v sporazumu o poravnavi iz leta 2011 zavzemali za ohranitev veljavnosti tistih delov izvedbenega sporazuma iz leta 1998, ki se ne nanašajo na zemljišče B-32.
Consequently, that agreement will no longer be implemented so that the Commission assessment of the 2011 urban development agreement has become without object.
Četrtič, v času sporazuma o poravnavi iz leta 2011 ni bilo jasno, ali bi Mestni svet v Madridu lahko odpravil pravno nezmožnost, ki izhaja iz izvedbenega sporazuma iz leta 1998 s spremembo klasifikacije zemljišč za osnovno športno uporabo v skladu s pravili urbanističnega načrtovanja.
The present Decision therefore only examines the 2011 settlement agreement under the State aid rules.
Real Madrid je trdil, da bi bila takšna sprememba mogoča.
According to Article 107(1) of the Treaty, any aid granted by a Member State or through State resources in any form whatsoever which distorts or threatens to distort competition by favouring certain undertakings or the provision of certain goods shall be incompatible with the internal market, in so far as it affects trade between Member States.
Vendar pa je Španija pojasnila, da Mestni svet v Madridu ne bi mogel takšne spremembe narediti sam, temveč bi spremembo PGOU moral predlagati Občini Madrid.
Conditions for a finding of State aid
Poleg tega bi morala biti takšna sprememba v splošnem interesu.
According to settled case-law, for a measure to be categorised as aid within the meaning of Article 107(1) of the Treaty, all the conditions set out in that provision must be fulfilled [13].
Glede na zgoraj navedeno Komisija meni, da bi preudaren udeleženec v tržnem gospodarstvu, ki bi se soočal z enako pravno negotovostjo, poiskal pravno svetovanje pred sklenitvijo sporazuma o poravnavi iz 2011 in sprejetjem polne pravne odgovornosti za nezmožnost prenosa zemljišča B-32 v okviru izvedbenega sporazuma iz leta 1998, česar Mestni svet v Madridu ni storil.
It is thus well-established that, for a measure to be categorised as State aid within the meaning of that provision, there must, first, be an intervention by the State or through State resources; second, the intervention must be liable to affect trade between Member States; third, it must confer a selective advantage on an undertaking and, fourth, it must distort or threaten to distort competition [14].
Možen znesek nadomestila
According to the case-law, an undertaking is any entity engaged in an economic activity, regardless of its legal status and the way in which it is financed [15].
Španija in Real Madrid se v zvezi s tem sklicujeta na poročilo Ministrstva za finance iz leta 2011, ki je katastrsko vrednost zemljišča B-32 ocenilo na 25776296 EUR.
Having regard to the objectives of the European Union, sport is subject to European Union competition law in so far as it constitutes an economic activity [16].
Španija poudarja, da je pravno zavezana za svojo evidenco ovrednotiti vsa zemljišča v njeni lasti, ne glede na njihovo javno ali zasebno pravno naravo.
In the present case, Real Madrid operates a professional football club for profit for which it receives revenues from ticket sales, marketing activities, broadcasting rights, merchandising, sponsorship, etc.
Real Madrid poudarja vrednotenje 22690000 EUR iz poročila Aguirre Newman, ki je nastalo po sprejetju sklepa o začetku postopka.
Accordingly, Real Madrid should be considered an undertaking for the purposes of Article 107(1) of the Treaty.
Komisija ugotavlja, da vse te ocene temeljijo na napačni predpostavki, da bi bilo zemljišče B-32 leta 2011 mogoče prenesti, kar je, kot je že bilo pojasnjeno v uvodni izjavi 97, pravno nemogoče.
As regards the other conditions for a finding of State aid, the 2011 settlement agreement was entered into by the Madrid City Council, which is a public authority, and results in the Madrid City Council compensating Real Madrid for its failure to comply with its contractual obligation to transfer a plot of land through the transfer of other plots of land worth EUR 19972348,96.
Ob predpostavki, da Mestni svet v Madridu ne more biti odgovoren za pravno nezmožnost, za katero ni nikoli zahteval pravnega svetovanja, je mogoče trditi, da bi bila tržna vrednost zemljišča v njegovem razmerju z Real Madridom enaka nič, saj zadevnega zemljišča ni mogoče prenesti.
As regards the second condition for a finding of State aid, any aid granted to Real Madrid is liable to affect intra-Union trade, since Real Madrid derives revenues from the sale of tickets, marketing activities, merchandising, broadcasting rights and sponsorship not only within Spain, but from sources throughout the Union.
Ob predpostavki, da bi bil Mestni svet v Madridu lahko v celoti odgovoren za nezmožnost prenosa zemljišča B-32 na Real Madrid, njegova finančna izpostavljenost za tovrstno odgovornost ne more presegati vrednosti zemljišča v času sklenitve sporazuma o poravnavi iz leta 2011.
Moreover, it competes economically with professional football clubs throughout the Union and in Spain for the aforementioned revenues, and in the acquisition of football players, so that any aid granted to it is liable to affect intra-EU trade and distort competition, since Real Madrid's financial position will be strengthened as compared to its competitors on the market for professional football as a result of that aid [17].
Glede višine nadomestila Španija priznava, da tehnične službe Mestnega sveta v Madridu med pripravo vrednotenja leta 2011 niso uporabile ustrezne klasifikacije zemljišča B-32 (javna športna uporaba), temveč so ga uvrstile v kategorijo za „javno uporabo različnih oblik“.
Consequently, the second condition for a finding of State aid is also fulfilled in the present case.
Poleg tega je bila katastrska vrednost 25776296 EUR, na katero se sklicujeta Španija in Real Madrid, med drugim, osnovana na podatkih o dejanskih tržnih transakcijah na referenčnem območju, medtem ko je ocena vrednosti 22690000 EUR v poročilu Aguirre Newman temeljila na metodi statične cenitve preostale vrednosti, ki temelji na scenariju prodaje različnih enot kmalu po izgradnji športne infrastrukture na tem zemljišču.
As regards the third and final condition for a finding of State aid, the 2011 settlement agreement is selective since it was concluded with Real Madrid only.
Ker je bilo zemljišče B-32 leta 2011 opredeljeno za športno uporabo in ker je imel Real Madrid namen zemljišče B-32 uporabiti za športno dejavnost, Komisija meni, da je pravilen parameter za vrednotenje tega zemljišča dolgoročno izkoriščanje zemljišča za športno uporabo.
The only question that remains is whether that agreement confers an economic advantage on Real Madrid, which the Commission will examine in more detail below.
V zvezi s tem se študija CEIAM, ki jo je naročila Komisija, začne, glede na predvideno uporabo zemljišča B-32 za športne dejavnosti, s predpostavko, da investitor pridobi zemljišče, zgradi infrastrukturo, namenjeno različnim vrstam športa, in ustvarja prihodke z zaračunavanjem uporabnine.
The market economy operator principle
Scenarij, ki ga je predlagal CEIAM, se zdi smiseln, saj je dolgoročno izkoriščanje športne infrastrukture na zemljišču B-32 s strani enega samega upravljavca edina realna možnost glede na klasifikacijo tega zemljišča, ki določa njegovo uporabo in izključuje nadaljnjo prodajo.
To determine whether Real Madrid obtained an economic advantage as a result of the 2011 settlement agreement, it is necessary to examine whether Real Madrid could have obtained the same advantage on the market as that which has been made available to it through State resources.
Španija opozarja, da v študiji, ki jo je pripravil CEIAM, eden od načinov vrednotenja temelji na predpostavki uporabe zemljišča za socialna stanovanja in doseže vrednost med 12245000 EUR in 18000000 EUR, saj ne zagotavlja najboljše uporabe zemljišč [26].
According to the case-law, economic transactions carried out by a public body or a public undertaking do not confer an advantage on its counterpart, and therefore do not constitute aid, if they are carried out in line with normal market conditions [19].
Španija meni, da je študija CEIAM izračunala vrednost, ki je bila 50 % nižja od vrednosti primerljivega zemljišča za namene javnih storitev (uso lucrativo de interés general: izobraževalne in kulturne storitve in ustanove, bolnišnice, cerkve), ki bi predstavljala največjo in najboljšo uporabo zemljišča za javne namene.
To determine whether a particular transaction carried out by a public authority has been carried out in line with normal market conditions, it is necessary to compare the behaviour of that public authority with that of a similarly situated hypothetical ‘market economic operator’ operating under normal market conditions.
Komisija v odgovor navaja, da je bil ta alternativni scenarij v okviru študije CEIAM narejen za namene primerjave.
If the ‘market economy operator’ would have entered into that transaction under similar terms, then the presence of an advantage may be excluded as regards that transaction [20].
Ustrezna referenca za končni izid študije je scenarij za športno uporabo, saj Mestni svet v Madridu ni spremenil razvrstitve zemljišča B-32 za javno uporabo, kot tudi ni mogel zakonito spremeniti klasifikacije za športno uporabo zaradi razlogov, navedenih v uvodni izjavi 104.
For this market economy operator principle (hereinafter: ‘MEOP’) to apply, the public authority must demonstrate that it behaved as a prudent market economy operator would have behaved in similar circumstances.
Real Madrid kritizira študijo CEIAM v več točkah [27].
Any prudent market economy operator would normally carry out its own ex ante assessment of the commercial rationale of entering into a particular agreement [21].
Prvič, opozarja na vrednotenje alternativnega scenarija, ki ni namenjen športni uporabi, saj bi temeljil na prevelikem številu subjektivnih in diskrecijskih elementov, poleg tega pa predpostavlja uporabo zemljišča B-32, ki ni v skladu z vedenjem tržnega vlagatelja ali hipotetičnega zasebnega lastnika.
Consequently, if a Member State argues that a particular transaction is in line with the MEOP, where there is doubt, it must provide evidence showing that the decision to carry out the transaction was taken, at the time, on the basis of sound economic evaluations comparable to those which, in similar circumstances, a rational private operator (with characteristics similar to those of the public body concerned) would have had carried out to determine the transaction's profitability or economic advantages.
Drugič, Real Madrid ugotavlja, da vrednotenje, ki temelji na športni uporabi, ne odraža prave tržne vrednosti.
For this purpose, evaluations made after the transaction was entered into, based on a retrospective finding that it was actually economically rational, or on subsequent justifications of the course of action actually chosen, are irrelevant [22].
CEIAM uporablja nacionalno metodo vrednotenja (v nadaljnjem besedilu: Odredba ECO 805/2003), ki določa le „hipotekarno posojilno vrednost“, za katero meni, da je previdna z vidika trajne dolgoročne vrednosti in je običajno nižja od „tržne vrednosti“, ki se nanaša na premišljen posel med voljnim kupcem in voljnim prodajalcem.
On the basis of that agreement, Real Madrid agreed to waive its claim to seek legal redress for the Madrid City Council's inability to perform its obligations under the 1998 implementation agreement, in return for the payment of compensation by the Madrid City Council to Real Madrid.
Tretjič, Real Madrid kritizira CEIAM iz več drugih razlogov:
According to Spain, due to the legal impossibility of fulfilling its obligation under the 1998 implementing agreement to transfer plot B-32 to Real Madrid, the Madrid City Council was obliged under Spanish law to compensate Real Madrid for its failure to perform that contract with the current value of the plot of land in question.
uporaba zemljišč in objektov ni optimizirana.
It is for this reason that the Madrid City Council decided to enter into the 2011 settlement agreement whereby it assumed full legal liability for its failure to perform that obligation and compensated Real Madrid for that failure in the amount of EUR 22693054,44, that is, the value of plot B-32 in 2011 as estimated by the technical services in charge of land valuation of the Madrid City Council.
CEIAM ni upošteval npr. tokov prihodkov od 25 % zemljišča, ki bi ga skladno s predpisi lastnik lahko namenil za trgovine in parkirišča;
Both factors determine whether entering into a settlement agreement is in line with market conditions and under what terms, namely the amount of compensation offered to settle the legal dispute.
podcenjevanje obstoječega povpraševanja v privlačnem in razvitem območju.
Applying those two factors to the present case, the Commission considers that a market economy operator in a similar situation to the Madrid City Council would not have entered into the 2011 settlement agreement.
Real Madrid izpodbija oceno, ki jo je pripravil CEIAM, glede odstotka prebivalstva, ki se ukvarja s športom (42,9 %) in predlaga višji odstotek (50 %), ki se nanaša tudi na morebitno povpraševanje s strani velikega števila zaposlenih, ki delajo na tem območju;
In the first place, considering the legal uncertainties in 2011 surrounding the question whether the Madrid City Council was liable to compensate Real Madrid for its failure to transfer plot B-32 under the 1998 implementation agreement, a market economy operator in the same situation as the Madrid City Council would have sought legal advice before entering into the 2011 settlement agreement, so as to establish the likelihood that it was indeed liable for that failure, which Madrid City Council did not do.
dejstvo, da je vrednost zemljišča ovrednotena zgolj na podlagi pravice do uporabe zemljišča (derecho de superficie) in ne na prenosu zemljišča in lastninske pravice.
In the second place, a market economy operator in a similar situation to Madrid City Council would not have accepted to pay Real Madrid compensation of EUR 22693054,44 under such an agreement, since that amount far exceeds the maximum extent of its legal liability for its failure to transfer plot B-32.
Ti očitki ne prepričajo.
Liability of the Madrid City Council for failure to perform its contractual obligations
Prvič, hipotetični scenariji za alternativno rabo, kot je pojasnjeno v uvodni izjavi 114, služijo le za primerjavo različnih hipotetičnih vrst rabe zemljišč, saj klasifikacije zemljišča za športno rabo ni mogoče spremeniti.
As regards the probability that Madrid City Council would have been found liable in legal proceedings, the Commission asked Spain to provide it with any legal advice the Madrid City Council sought before entering into the 2011 settlement agreement demonstrating that it was likely to be found liable for its failure to transfer plot B-32 under the 1998 implementation agreement, which Spain was unable to provide [23].
Ta analiza je pokazala, da bi se vrednost zemljišča B-32 lahko vsaj približala vrednosti, ki jo je prevzel Mestni svet v Madridu, če bi imelo zemljišče klasifikacijo z večjim komercialnim potencialom.
In the absence of legal advice, the Commission considers that a hypothetical market economy operator in a similar situation would not have assumed full legal liability for its failure to perform a contractual obligation, as Madrid City Council did, considering the legal uncertainties surrounding the potential impossibility to perform that obligation, the legal consequences of that potential impossibility, and Madrid City Council's ability to remedy that legal impossibility through other means.
Ker pa Mestni svet v Madridu ni spremenil klasifikacije zemljišča B-32 in klasifikacije za športno uporabo tudi ni mogel zakonito spremeniti, je primerna referenca za končni izid študije scenarij za športno uporabo.
Firstly, it is unclear whether the Madrid City Council could legally assume the obligation to transfer plot B-32 at the time the 1998 implementation agreement was concluded.
Drugič, glede domnevnega vrednotenja zemljišč na podlagi „hipotekarne posojilne vrednosti“ ali pod predpostavko zgolj pravice do uporabe zemljišča, študija CEIAM teh predpostavk ne uporablja, kot to zatrjuje Real Madrid.
According to Spain and Real Madrid, the parties to the 1998 implementation agreement knew that the land was classified for basic sports use and assumed at the time that the agreement was concluded that land so classified could be transferred to a private party, so long as that party planned to use the plot for sport use.
Nasprotno, kot je pojasnjeno v oddelku 2.5 dela študije, ki se nanaša na scenarij športne uporabe, študija opredeljuje vrednost na podlagi investicijske vrednosti zemljišča, kar je vrednost za trenutnega ali potencialnega lastnika.
However, there are no indications that that assumption was correct at the time the 1998 implementation agreement was concluded.
Študija CEIAM v oddelku 2.3.2 pojasnjuje, da je cilj uporabljene metode, opisane v Odredbi ECO/805/2003, ki jo kritizira Real Madrid, določitev tržne vrednosti zemljišča [28].
With the adoption of law 9/2001, the parties should have certainly questioned that assumption since, according to that law, land in the public domain must remain in public ownership.
Ne glede na namene, na katere se nanaša Odredba ECO/805/2003, opisuje metodo za določitev vrednosti zemljišča, ki lahko ustvarja dohodek, ki je vezan na določene gospodarske dejavnosti in nima nič opraviti s hipotekarno vrednostjo.
The Commission notes in this regard that the Madrid City Council only became the registered owner of plot B-32 in 2003 and, according to the 1998 implementation agreement, the Madrid City Council was obliged to transfer that plot seven days after it became the registered owner thereof.
V ta namen uporablja splošno sprejete standarde, ki niso odvisni od razloga za vrednotenje.
Moreover, following the judgment of the Tribunal Superior de Justicia de Madrid in 2004 [24], it should have been clear to both parties that plots of land like plot B-32 could not be legally transferred to a private person or entity.
Ta metoda je odvisna od obstoja investicijskega projekta, saj je vrednost določena z neto sedanjo vrednostjo dolgoročnih prihodnjih denarnih tokov najverjetnejšega investicijskega projekta (v primeru zemljišča B-32 sta to gradnja in upravljanje športne infrastrukture).
Therefore, when the Madrid City Council agreed under the 2011 settlement agreement to assume full legal liability for its failure to transfer plot B-32 under the 1998 implementation agreement, it must have been abundantly clear to both parties that plot B-32 could not be legally transferred.
Za razliko od metode statične cenitve preostale vrednosti, uporabljene v poročilu Aguirre Newman, ki ga je predložil Real Madrid, izračun študije CEIAM ne temelji na ceni, ki bi jo investitor v športno infrastrukturo dobil s kratkoročno prodajo infrastrukture, temveč na njenem komercialnem izkoriščanju v naslednjih desetletjih.
Secondly, the consequences of the legal impossibility for Madrid City Council to perform its obligation under the 1998 implementation agreement to transfer plot B-32 as regards any potential claim for compensation for Real Madrid were also unclear from a legal perspective when the 2011 settlement agreement was entered into.
Metoda, ki jo je predlagal CEIAM, je še posebej primerna za zemljišče B-32, ker možnost prodaje zemljišča z infrastrukturo ne obstaja, saj sta vrsta uporabe in javno lastništvo tega zemljišča določena na dolgi rok.
According to Spain, under the general rules of Spanish civil law, the legal impossibility to perform a contract would make that contract void under private law.
Metoda statične cenitve preostale vrednosti, ki jo je predlagal Real Madrid, ni primerna takrat, ko je za upravljanje športne infrastrukture predvideno plačilo uporabnine.
