Purchase Price II of EUR […] had to be paid by Infratil only if certain conditions were met that ensured the profitability of the airport.
Drugič, treba je ugotoviti, ali zadevni ukrep pomeni odstopanje od tega sistema, kadar različno obravnava gospodarske subjekte, ki so z vidika ciljev, ki so lastni sistemu, v primerljivem dejanskem in pravnem položaju.
The price corresponds to the sales price negotiated by the parties in March 2005 during the public procurement procedure.
Če takšno odstopanje obstaja (in je ukrep zato selektiven prima facie), je treba v tretjem koraku preskusa ugotoviti, ali je odstopanje utemeljeno z naravo ali splošno shemo sistema.
The existence of an economic advantage can be excluded, if the sale complies with the market conditions.
V zadevnem primeru je Komisija sprožila formalni postopek preiskave v zvezi s pristojbinami za razledenitev letal.
This can be assumed when a sale is carried out through a public tender and the following cumulative conditions are fulfilled [55]:
Prvič, Komisija mora določiti referenčni sistem, po katerem je treba oceniti pristojbine za razledenitev.
the shareholding is sold by a competitive tender that is open to all comers, transparent and non-discriminatory;
Komisija v zvezi s tem ugotavlja, da so pristojbine za razledenitev zrakoplovov na letališču določene v shemi posebnih pristojbin.
no conditions are attached to the sale which are not customary in comparable transactions between private parties and which are capable of potentially reducing the sales price; the shareholding is sold to the highest bidder;
Ta shema posebnih pristojbin sicer ni del splošnega seznama pristojbin za uporabo infrastrukture, vendar ima nekatere skupne značilnosti s splošnim seznamom pristojbin: shema posebnih pristojbin določa cene nekaterih storitev, ki jih letališče zagotavlja letalskim prevoznikom, in cene materiala, ki je potreben za te storitve.
the bidders must be given enough time and information to carry out a proper evaluation of the assets upon which their bid is based.
Uporablja se za vse letalske prevoznike, ki uporabljajo letališče.
(245) These conditions were met by the tender taking place in March 2005.
Vsakih nekaj let se prilagodi zaradi sprememb stroškov posebnih storitev.
As there were five different undertakings indicating their interest in buying the airport, it is not apparent that only Infratil was able to submit a credible bid.
Predvsem pa je samo letališče pristojno za sestavo sheme posebnih pristojbin.
Furthermore the public tender procedure was designed to ensure effective and non-discriminatory competition under German national law.
V sodbi v zadevi Lübeck je Sodišče odločilo, da je treba seznam pristojbin iz leta 2006 za letališče Lübeck šteti za referenčni sistem [76].
(246) The Commission observes that the sales price in the first purchase agreement of March 2005 amounted to EUR […].
Glede na podobnosti med splošnim seznamom pristojbin in shemo posebnih pristojbin Komisija ugotavlja, da je treba shemo posebnih pristojbin na letališču Lübeck šteti za referenčni okvir, v skladu s katerim naj se ocenjujejo pristojbine za razledenitev zrakoplovov na letališču Lübeck.
However, the terms of the agreement were renegotiated in October 2005.
Drugič, Komisija mora oceniti, ali shema posebnih pristojbin razlikuje med gospodarskimi subjekti, ki so v primerljivem dejanskem in pravnem položaju.
The resulting conditions for Purchase Price II, as well the agreed deductions mentioned in recital 83 were not an outcome of the original tender procedure.
Komisija ugotavlja, da se shema posebnih pristojbin uporablja za vse letalske prevoznike, ki uporabljajo letališče Lübeck.
Therefore, in order to assess whether the agreed price meets the market requirements, the MEO principle needs to be applied.
Pri uporabi storitev razledenitve zrakoplovov shema posebnih pristojbin ne razlikuje med letalskimi prevozniki.
(247) In order to establish whether Hansestadt Lübeck would have been able to negotiate a higher purchase price, the prevailing circumstances, in particular the level of risk from the exercise of the put option for Infratil and the potential losses resulting therefrom have to be taken into consideration.
Dejansko za vsak zrakoplov, ki se razledeni na letališču Lübeck, veljajo enake pristojbine, ki so odvisne od vzletne mase zrakoplova kot tudi od količine uporabljene tekočine za razledenitev in vroče vode.
As outlined in recital 240, even taking into account the EUR […] of losses covered by the Hansestadt Lübeck, Infratil had to expect additional financial losses between EUR […] and EUR […] when exercising the put option.
Zato pristojbine za razledenitev zrakoplovov na letališču Lübeck ne odstopajo od referenčnega sistema, ker se ne razlikujejo med letalskimi prevozniki, ki uporabljajo letališče.
From an ex ante perspective, Infratil was therefore faced with the situation of potentially realising profits in the case of a materialisation of the second scenario, while at the same time risking high losses in the case of the exercise of the put option.
Komisija ugotavlja, da pristojbine za razledenitev niso selektivne prima facie.
Germany stated that from the perspective of 2005, Hansestadt Lübeck considered it very unlikely that the conditions for exercising the put option would materialise, namely that the planning approval would not be obtained and the passenger numbers would be below […].
Glede na to, da pristojbine za razledenitev niso selektivne prima facie, ni treba oceniti, ali so utemeljene z naravo ali splošno shemo sistema.
However, as noted in recital 234, Hansestadt Lübeck had to expect Infratil to attribute a higher risk to the planning approval process.
Zato pristojbine za razledenitev zrakoplovov ne pomenijo državne pomoči v smislu člena 107(1) PDEU.
With regard to the passenger numbers, Germany argues that Ryanair announced to establish a base at Lübeck airport if existing runways would be enlarged and that the establishment of a base was expected to lead to passenger numbers of […] per year.
SKLEPNA UGOTOVITEV
The Commission notes that actual passenger numbers at Lübeck airport did not reach this threshold but rather decreased between 2005 and 2008 to 544339 in 2008 (see Table 1).
Komisija ugotavlja, da ni treba sprejeti odločitve o tem, ali morebitna državna pomoč družbi FLG pomeni državno pomoč v smislu člena 107(1) PDEU in, če je tako, ali je to državno pomoč mogoče razglasiti za združljivo.
However, the Commission notes in this context that circumstances, like the effects of the financial crisis, which could not have been anticipated in 2005, may explain a significant deviation between expected and actual passenger numbers.
Poleg tega pomoči ne bi bilo več mogoče izterjati od družbe Yasmina, tudi če je obstajala gospodarska kontinuiteta med družbama FLG in Yasmina, saj je slednja prenehala in njena sredstva so bila prodana v postopku v primeru insolventnosti pod nadzorom sodišča v skladu z nemškim zakonom o insolventnosti.
The Ecorys study commissioned by the Commission as well as the expert report drawn up by Ernst & Young ordered by HL in 2005 expected the passenger numbers to rise to […] in 2008.
Prodaja delnic družbe FLG družbi Infratil leta 2005 ni prinesla prednosti družbi Infratil, ker je mesto Lübeck pri prodaji delnic ravnalo kot udeleženec v tržnem gospodarstvu.
This figure was based on the assumption that a planning approval would be obtained in the first half of 2008 and that construction works at Lübeck airport would be postponed until the end of 2008.
Tudi ponovna pogajanja o prodajni opciji leta 2009 in prevzem dodatnih izgub, naložb in drugih stroškov, kot je določeno v dodatnem sporazumu iz leta 2009, niso zagotovila prednosti družbi Infratil.
Based on this numbers, it would have been rather reasonable for Hansestadt Lübeck to consider the possibility that passenger numbers would remain below the threshold of […].
V tem smislu je mesto Lübeck ravnalo kot udeleženec v tržnem gospodarstvu.
Since reaching the passenger number threshold was a pre-condition for the put option to lapse, and since the obtaining of the planning approval was uncertain, the exercise of the put option had to be considered as an option.
Sporazum iz leta 2000 med družbo FLG in Ryanair bi s predhodnega vidika prispeval k donosnosti letališča.
Thus given the reasonable possibility of Infratil exercising the put option and the corresponding risk of high losses, the Commission assumes that a private shareholder would not have been able to negotiate a higher purchase price, as the deal would otherwise not have been profitable for a potential investor.
To pomeni, da bi udeleženec v tržnem gospodarstvu sklenil sporazum, ki ne daje prednosti družbi Ryanair.
The Commission therefore regards Hansestadt Lübeck's decision to accept a sales price of EUR […] with the agreed deductions as specified in the 2005 Participation Agreement to be economically sound.
Pristojbine za razledenitev zrakoplovov na letališču se ne zdijo selektivne –
This result corresponds to the findings of the Ernest & Young study, which estimates the revenues from the sale of the shares in FLG at about EUR […] and therefore concludes that the agreed price would have been accepted by a private investor in a comparable situation.
SPREJELA NASLEDNJI SKLEP:
The Ecorys study estimates a much higher market value for the shares of about EUR […].
Člen 1
However, the study does not consider the high financial risks for Infratil when exercising the put option as outlined in recitals 247 and 248.
Ni treba odločiti o tem, ali morebitna državna pomoč družbi FLG pomeni državno pomoč v smislu člena 107(1) Pogodbe o delovanju Evropske unije, in če je tako, ali bi jo bilo mogoče razglasiti za združljivo z notranjim trgom, saj je gospodarska dejavnost družbe FLG prenehala obstajati in pomoči ni več mogoče izterjati.
The varying numbers used for the calculation with regard to investments/CAPEX further contribute to a different risk assessment of both studies.
Prodaja 90 % delnic družbe FLG družbi Infratil in pogoji iz prodajne opcije, ki so bili s pogajanji na novo dogovorjeni leta 2009, ne pomenijo državne pomoči v smislu člena 107(1) Pogodbe o delovanju Evropske unije.
In the light of these considerations, the Commission concludes that Purchase Price II as specified in the 2005 Participation Agreement complies with the market conditions and that no economic advantage has been granted to Infratil.
Sporazum iz leta 2000 med družbo Ryanair in letališčem Lübeck ne pomeni državne pomoči v smislu člena 107(1) Pogodbe o delovanju Evropske unije.
Conclusion on the overall profitability of the deal
Člen 4
It follows from the assessment of the measure set out above that Hansestadt Lübeck was faced with the decision to either close the airport, to continue its loss-making operation or to sell Lübeck airport.
Pristojbine za odstranjevanje ledu z zrakoplovov ne pomenijo državne pomoči v smislu člena 107(1) Pogodbe o delovanju Evropske unije.
Hansestadt Lübeck chose the most economic option available when deciding to sell the airport.
Člen 5
When assessing the concrete terms of the 2005 Participation Agreement, the interrelation of the two scenarios (i.e. Purchase Price I and the put option and Purchase Price II) needs to be taken into account.
Ta sklep je naslovljen na Zvezno republiko Nemčijo.
As it has been found that it was reasonable from an ex ante perspective to consider both the payment of Purchase Price II and the exercise of the put option as possible, the risks for both parties resulting from this have to be considered.
V Bruslju, 7. februarja 2017
Especially with regard to the potential financial losses of Infratil resulting from the exercise of the put option, the Commission considers it unlikely that a private seller in the stead of Hansestadt Lübeck would have been able to negotiate a more favourable agreement.
Za Komisijo
The Commission therefore concludes that Hansestadt Lübeck acted like a MEO when negotiating the 2005 Participation Agreement.
Članica Komisije
As a result, the measure did not grant Infratil any economic advantage and did not constitute State aid.

The 2009 Additional Agreement and the renegotiation of the put option — Takeover of losses, investments and other costs of FLG in 2009
UL C 295, 7.12.2007, str. 29 in UL C 241, 10.8.2012, str. 56.
As stated above, the 2009 Additional Agreement signed on 12 November 2008 did not modify the amounts payable for the put option under the 2005 Participation Agreement, but included the takeover of losses, agreed investments and other costs related to the operation of Lübeck airport in 2009, resulting in a total put option price of EUR […] (see recital 90).
Infratil je družba za naložbe v infrastrukturo s sedežem na Novi Zelandiji in vlaga v sektorje energetike, letališč in javnega prevoza.
In its 2012 Opening decision, the Commission had opened investigations into two separate measures:

the difference between the put option price agreed in 2005 and the actual put option price paid.
Ryanair je irski letalski prevoznik in član Združenja evropskih nizkocenovnih letalskih prevoznikov.
However, on the basis of the information received, the Commission finds that these two issues concern the same measure, namely the 2009 Additional Agreement between Hansestadt Lübeck and Infratil.
Poslovanje letalskega prevoznika je bilo povezano s sekundarnimi, regionalnimi letališči.
To determine whether the put option price under the 2009 Agreement included an economic advantage for Infratil, the Commission needs to apply the MEO test.
Ta letalski prevoznik trenutno leti na približno 160 evropskih destinacij.
In order to be able to determine whether Hansestadt Lübeck chose the financially most advantageous option available, the Commission has to place itself in the position of a private shareholder at the time when the agreement was signed [56].
Ima homogeno floto, ki jo sestavlja 272 zrakoplovov Boeing 737-800 s 189 sedeži.
The Commission finds that after Infratil announced its intention to exercise its put option in 2009, Hansestadt Lübeck was faced with the following options:
Družba Ryanair je v času sklepa o začetku postopka iz leta 2007 z letališča Lübeck opravljala 23 letov na teden na 5 evropskih destinacij, in sicer London-Stansted v Združenem kraljestvu, Mailand-Bergamo in Piso v Italiji, Palmo de Mallorco v Španiji in Stockholm-Skavsto na Švedskem.

sign the 2009 Additional Agreement so that Infratil would continue the operation of the airport until a new operator was found.
Sporočilo Komisije – Smernice o državni pomoči letališčem in letalskim prevoznikom (UL C 99, 4.4.2014, str. 3).
The option of closing the airport (option a) would have required Hansestadt Lübeck to pay the put option price of EUR […] (see recital 238) immediately and to initiate the procedure for closing the airport, facing additional costs (see the Berenberg study, presented in Table 9).
UL C 113, 15.4.2014, str. 30.
In the first subscenario of option b (Hansestadt Lübeck resumes operation of the airport until a new private investor is found), Hansestadt Lübeck would have had to pay the put option price to Infratil laid down in the 2005 Participation Agreement and to cover all costs arising from the operation of the airport until a new investor would be found.
To je nevladna organizacija, registrirana v skladu s pravili Direktive 2003/35/ES Evropskega parlamenta in Sveta z dne 26. maja 2003 o sodelovanju javnosti pri sestavi nekaterih načrtov in programov v zvezi z okoljem in o spremembi direktiv Sveta 85/337/EGS in 96/61/ES glede sodelovanja javnosti in dostopa do sodišč (UL L 156, 25.6.2003, str. 17).
Deriving from the put option price paid in 2009 (see Table 3), the costs for operating losses, investment, the planning approval process and legal costs alone would have amounted to EUR […].
Pred začetkom postopka so bili preiskani ukrepi v zadevah CP 31/2009 (SA.27585) in CP 162/2010 (SA.31149).
Therefore, already by October 2009, Hansestadt Lübeck would have faced costs of approximately EUR […] (put option price according to 2005 Participation Agreement plus operating costs for November 2008 to October 2009).
UL C 241, 10.8.2012, str. 56.
Germany submitted that a resale of FLG to a new private investor would have required a new Union wide tender procedure, which is estimated to take a minimum of 12 months.
Zvezno združenje nemških komercialnih letališč (Bundesverband der deutschen Verkehrsflughäfen).
The Commission notes that a private operator would indeed have taken into account the estimated duration of the tender procedure.
Yasmina je bila 100-odstotna podružnica družbe 3 Y Logistic und Projektbetreuung GmbH (v nadaljnjem besedilu: 3Y), naložbenega podjetja, katerega lastnik je fizična oseba, in sicer Adel Mohammed Saleh M. Alghanmi iz Saudove Arabije.
In this scenario, assuming that Infratil would exercise its put option in October 2009, Hansestadt Lübeck would have had to pay the put option price under the 2009 Additional Agreement.
Zadeva T-461/12, Hansestadt Lübeck proti Evropski komisiji, ECLI:EU:T:2014:758.
As this price consists of the put option price of the 2005 Participation Agreement and additional costs relating to the operation of the airport in 2009, the potential costs for Hansestadt Lübeck are comparable to those of the second scenario.
Zadeva C-524/14 P, Komisija proti Hansestadt Lübeck, ECLI:EU:C:2016:971.
The 2009 Additional Agreement had however an advantage for HL in so far as it provided Hansestadt Lübeck with the time to prepare a tender to find a new investor.

Furthermore, the immediate departure of Infratil carried the risk of causing Ryanair to reduce its services at Lübeck airport, and thereby to potentially enlarge future operating losses.
Bürgerschaft Hansestadt Lübeck sestavljajo predstavniki prebivalcev mesta.
This has proven to be true from an ex post perspective, since a new investor was only found in 2012.
Na podlagi teh odločb je bil sklep o odobritvi načrta zavrnjen.
Like the 2005 Participation Agreement, the 2009 Additional Agreement also contains a limit for the operating losses and investment costs to be paid by Hansestadt Lübeck.

On the basis of those considerations, the Commission concludes that there was no economic advantage granted to Infratil and thus the measure did not constitute State aid.

Economic advantage

Where an airport has public resources at its disposal, aid to an airline can, in principle, be excluded where the relationship between the airport and the airline satisfies the MEO test.
Zadeva C-280/00, Altmark Trans GmbH und Regierungspräsidium Magdeburg proti Nahverkehrsgesellschaft Altmark GmbH, ECLI:EU:C:2003:415.
Under the 2014 Aviation Guidelines [57], the existence of aid to an airline using a particular airport can, in principle, be excluded if the price charged for the airport services corresponds to the market price (‘first approach’), or if it can be demonstrated through an ex ante analysis — that is to say one founded on information available when the aid is granted and on developments foreseeable at the time — that the airport/airline arrangement will lead to a positive incremental profit contribution for the airport and is part of an overall strategy leading to profitability at least in the long term (‘second approach’).
Poročilo družbe Oxera, Gospodarska presoja načela udeleženca v tržnem gospodarstvu: letališče Lübeck, 6. februar 2015.
The second approach means that it must be assessed whether, at the date when an agreement was concluded, a prudent market economy operator would have expected the agreement to be incrementally profitable.
Poslovni načrt „Takeoff Konzept“ z dne 21. decembra 2009, glej http://www.luebeck.de/stadt_politik/rathaus/wahlen/files/M21_Take_off_Konzept_HL-Umdruck_17-156_WA_Ltsh.pdf.
This to be measured by the difference between the incremental revenues expected to be generated by the agreement (that is, the difference between the revenues that would be achieved if the agreement were concluded and the revenues that would be achieved in the absence of the agreement) and the incremental costs expected to be incurred as a result of the contract (that is, the difference between the costs that would be incurred if the agreement were concluded and the costs that would be incurred in the absence of the agreement), the resulting cash flows being discounted with an appropriate discount rate.
Zadeva T-196/04, Ryanair proti Komisiji (v nadaljnjem besedilu: Charleroi), ECLI:EU:T:2008:585.
As regards the first approach (a comparison with the ‘market price’), the Commission does not consider that, at the present time, an appropriate benchmark can be identified to establish a true market price for services provided by airports [58].

It should be noted that, in general, the application of the MEO principle based on an average price on other, similar markets may prove helpful if such a price can be reasonably identified or deduced from other market indicators.

As can be seen in this case, commercial practices between airports and airlines are not always based exclusively on a published schedule of charges.
Skrbni pregled je preučitev potencialnega ciljnega podjetja za združitev, prevzem, privatizacijo ali podobno poslovno finančno transakcijo, ki ga običajno opravi kupec.
