However, it will be otherwise where quantity limitations are used to implement an underlying market partitioning agreement.
Vendar pa velja drugače, če se omejitve količine uporabijo za izvajanje sporazuma, ki je v osnovi sporazum o razdelitvi trga.
Indications thereof include the adjustment of quantities over time to cover only local demand, the combination of quantity limitations and an obligation to sell minimum quantities in the territory, minimum royalty obligations linked to sales in the territory, differentiated royalty rates depending on the destination of the products and the monitoring of the destination of products sold by individual licensees.
Dokazi za obstoj takega sporazuma vključujejo postopno prilagoditev količine, da se pokrije zgolj lokalno povpraševanje, kombinacijo količinskih omejitev in obveznosti, da se na določenem ozemlju prodajo minimalne količine, obveznosti o minimalni licenčnini, povezane s prodajo na določenem ozemlju, diferencirane stopnje licenčnine, ki so odvisne od namembnega kraja izdelkov, in sistem za nadziranje namembnega kraja izdelkov, ki jih prodajo posamezni pridobitelji licence.
The general hardcore restriction covering passive sales by licensees is subject to a number of exceptions, which are dealt with below.
Vendar pa obstajajo za splošno nedopustno omejitev, ki se nanaša na pasivno prodajo s strani pridobiteljev licence, številne izjeme, ki so obravnavane v nadaljevanju.
Article 4(2)(b) does not cover sales restrictions on the licensor.
Člen 4(2)(b) ne zajema omejitev prodaje, ki veljajo za dajalca licence.
All sales restrictions on the licensor are block exempted up to the market share threshold of 30 %.
Vse omejitve prodaje, naložene dajalcu licence, so predmet skupinske izjeme do praga tržnega deleža v višini 30 %.
The same applies to all restrictions on active sales by the licensee, with the exception of what is said on active selling in paragraphs 105 and 106 below.
Enako velja za vse omejitve aktivne prodaje, ki so naložene pridobitelju licence, z izjemo tega, kar je v zvezi z aktivno prodajo navedeno v odstavkih 105 in 106 spodaj.
The block exemption of restrictions on active selling is based on the assumption that such restrictions promote investments, non-price competition and improvements in the quality of services provided by the licensees by solving free rider problems and hold-up problems.
Skupinska izjema za omejitve aktivne prodaje temelji na domnevi, da takšne omejitve spodbujajo naložbe, necenovno konkurenco in izboljšave v kakovosti storitev, ki jih nudi pridobitelj licence, s tem ko rešujejo probleme parazitizma in t. i. probleme zadržanja.
In the case of restrictions of active sales between licensees’ territories or customer groups, it is not a condition that the protected licensee has been granted an exclusive territory or an exclusive customer group.
Pri omejitvah aktivne prodaje med ozemlji ali skupinami kupcev, ki so dodeljeni pridobiteljem licence, ni pogoj, da je bilo zaščitenemu pridobitelju licence dodeljeno izključno ozemlje ali izključna skupina kupcev.
The block exemption also applies to active sales restrictions where more than one licensee has been appointed for a particular territory or customer group.
Skupinska izjema se uporablja tudi za omejitve aktivne prodaje, pri katerih sta določeno ozemlje ali določena skupina kupcev dodeljena več kot le enemu pridobitelju licence.
Efficiency enhancing investment is likely to be promoted where a licensee can be ensured that he will only face active sales competition from a limited number of licensees inside the territory and not also from licensees outside the territory.
Verjetno je, da se bodo naložbe v povečanje učinkovitosti spodbujale, če se pridobitelju licence lahko zagotovi, da bo konkurenci na področju aktivne prodaje izpostavljen samo s strani omejenega števila pridobiteljev licence znotraj določenega ozemlja in ne tudi s strani pridobiteljev licence zunaj tega ozemlja.
Restrictions on active and passive sales by licensees into an exclusive territory or to an exclusive customer group reserved for the licensor do not constitute hardcore restrictions of competition (cf. Article 4(2)(b)(i)).
Omejitve, ki so pridobiteljem licence naložene glede aktivne in pasivne prodaje na izključnem ozemlju ali izključni skupini kupcev, ki sta rezervirana za dajalca licence, ne pomenijo nedopustnih omejitev konkurence (glej člen 4(2)(b)(i)).
Indeed, they are block exempted.
Take omejitve so dejansko predmet skupinske izjeme.
It is presumed that up to the market share threshold such restraints, where restrictive of competition, promote pro-competitive dissemination of technology and integration of such technology into the production assets of the licensee.
Domneva se, da take omejitve, če ni presežen predpisani prag tržnega deleža, kljub omejevanju konkurence pospešujejo za konkurenco spodbudno razširjanje tehnologije in integracijo take tehnologije v proizvodne zmogljivosti pridobitelja licence.
For a territory or customer group to be reserved for the licensor, it is not required that the licensor is actually producing with the licensed technology in the territory or for the customer group in question.
Da sta ozemlje ali skupina kupcev pridržana za dajalca licence, ni treba, da dajalec licence dejansko proizvaja z licenčno tehnologijo na zadevnem ozemlju ali za zadevno skupino kupcev.
A territory or customer group can also be reserved by the licensor for later exploitation.
Dajalec licence si lahko pridrži ozemlje ali skupino kupcev tudi za poznejše izkoriščanje.
Restrictions on passive sales by licensees into an exclusive territory or customer group allocated to another licensee are block exempted for two years calculated from the date on which the protected licensee first markets the products incorporating the licensed technology inside his exclusive territory or to his exclusive customer group (cf. Article 4(2)(b)(ii)).
Omejitve, ki so pridobiteljem licence naložene glede pasivne prodaje na izključnem ozemlju ali izključni skupini kupcev, dodeljenih drugemu pridobitelju licence, so predmet skupinske izjeme za čas dveh let, računano od dneva, ko zaščiteni pridobitelj licence prvič da na trg znotraj svojega izključnega ozemlja izdelke, ki vključujejo licenčno tehnologijo, ali jih ponudi svoji izključni skupini kupcev (glej člen 4(2)(b)(ii)).
Licensees often have to commit substantial investments in production assets and promotional activities in order to start up and develop a new territory.
Pridobitelji licence morajo za zagon in razvoj novega ozemlja pogosto izvesti precejšnje naložbe v proizvodne zmogljivosti in promocijske dejavnosti.
The risks facing the new licensee are therefore likely to be substantial, in particular since promotional expenses and investment in assets required to produce on the basis of a particular technology are often sunk, i.e. they cannot be recovered if the licensee exits the market.
Tveganja, ki jim je izpostavljen nov pridobitelj licence, bodo zato verjetno precejšnja, zlasti ker so promocijski izdatki in naložbe v sredstva, potrebna za proizvodnjo na podlagi določene tehnologije, pogosto nepovratni stroški, tj. ne da se jih povrniti, če pridobitelj licence izstopi iz trga.
In such circumstances, it is often the case that licensees would not enter into the licence agreement without protection for a certain period of time against (active and) passive sales into their territory by other licensees.
V takšnih okoliščinah je pogosto primer, da pridobitelji licence nočejo skleniti licenčnega sporazuma, ki ne vsebuje zaščite za določeno obdobje pred (aktivno in) pasivno prodajo na njihovem ozemlju s strani drugih pridobiteljev licence.
Restrictions on passive sales into the exclusive territory of a licensee by other licensees therefore often fall outside Article 53(1) of the EEA Agreement for a period of up to two years from the date on which the product incorporating the licensed technology was first put on the market in the exclusive territory by the licensee in question.
Omejitve glede pasivne prodaje na izključnem ozemlju pridobitelja licence, ki so naložene drugim pridobiteljem licence, zato pogosto ne sodijo v področje uporabe člena 53(1) Sporazuma EGP za dobo največ dveh let, računano od dneva, ko zadevni pridobitelj licence prvič da na trg na izključnem ozemlju izdelek, ki vključuje licenčno tehnologijo.
However, to the extent that in individual cases such restrictions are caught by Article 53(1) they are block exempted.
Vendar pa so takšne omejitve, kolikor so v posameznih primerih zajete s členom 53(1), predmet skupinske izjeme.
After the expiry of this two-year period restrictions on passive sales between licensees constitute hardcore restrictions.
Po preteku tega roka dveh let pomenijo omejitve pasivne prodaje med pridobitelji licence nedopustno omejitev.
Such restrictions are generally caught by Article 53(1) and are unlikely to fulfil the conditions of Article 53(3).
Takšne omejitve so na splošno zajete v prepovedi iz člena 53(1) in ni verjetno, da izpolnjujejo pogoje iz člena 53(3).
In particular, passive sales restrictions are unlikely to be indispensable for the attainment of efficiencies [46].
Zlasti ni verjetno, da so omejitve pasivne prodaje nepogrešljive za dosego učinkovitosti [46].
Article 4(2)(b)(iii) brings under the block exemption a restriction whereby the licensee is obliged to produce products incorporating the licensed technology only for his own (captive) use.
S členom 4(2)(b)(iii) je v skupinsko izjemo vključena omejitev, v okviru katere je pridobitelj licence obvezan, da bo izdelke, ki vključujejo licenčno tehnologijo, proizvajal le za lastno (interno) uporabo.
Where the contract product is a component the licensee can thus be obliged to use that product only for incorporation into his own products and can be obliged not to sell the product to other producers.
Če je pogodbeni izdelek sestavni del, je torej pridobitelju licence lahko naložena obveznost, da uporablja navedeni izdelek le za namene vgradnje v svoje lastne izdelke in da izdelka ne prodaja drugim proizvajalcem.
The licensee must however be able to actively and passively sell the products as spare parts for his own products and must thus be able to supply third parties that perform after sale services on these products.
Vendar pa mora biti pridobitelju licence omogočeno, da aktivno in pasivno prodaja izdelke kot nadomestne dele za svoje lastne izdelke in torej dobavlja tretjim, ki izvajajo poprodajne storitve v zvezi s temi izdelki.
Captive use restrictions are also dealt with in section IV.2.5 below.
Omejitve, ki se nanašajo na lastno uporabo, so obravnavane tudi v podpoglavju IV.2.5 spodaj.
As in the case of agreements between competitors (cf. paragraph 93 above) the block exemption also applies to agreements whereby the licensee is obliged to produce the contract products only for a particular customer in order to provide that customer with an alternative source of supply (cf. Article 4(2)(b)(iv)).
Kot pri sporazumih med konkurenti (glej odstavek 93 zgoraj) se skupinska izjema uporablja tudi za sporazume, pri katerih je pridobitelj licence obvezan k proizvodnji pogodbenih izdelkov samo za določenega kupca, z namenom, da zadevnemu kupcu zagotovi alternativni vir dobave (glej člen 4(2)(b)(iv)).
In the case of agreements between non-competitors, such restrictions are unlikely to be caught by Article 53(1).
Pri sporazumih med nekonkurenti ni verjetno, da bodo take omejitve zajete v prepovedi iz člena 53(1).
Article 4(2)(b)(v) brings under the block exemption an obligation on the licensee not to sell to end users and thus only to sell to retailers.
S členom 4(2)(b)(v) je v skupinsko izjemo vključena omejitev za pridobitelja licence, da ne prodaja končnim uporabnikom in da torej prodaja samo trgovcem na drobno.
Such an obligation allows the licensor to assign the wholesale distribution function to the licensee and normally falls outside Article 53(1) [47].
Takšna obveznost dajalcu licence dopušča, da pridobitelju licence dodeli grosistično distribucijo, in običajno ne sodi v področje uporabe člena 53(1) [47].
Finally Article 4(2)(b)(vi) brings under the block exemption a restriction on the licensee not to sell to unauthorised distributors.
Končno člen 4(2)(b)(vi) vključuje v okvir skupinske izjeme tudi obveznost za pridobitelja licence, da ne prodaja nepooblaščenim distributerjem.
This exception allows the licensor to impose on the licensees an obligation to form part of a selective distribution system.
Ta izjema dajalcu licence omogoča naložiti obveznost pridobitelju licence, da je član sistema selektivne distribucije.
In that case, however, the licensees must according to Article 4(2)(c) be permitted to sell both actively and passively to end users, without prejudice to the possibility to restrict the licensee to a wholesale function as foreseen in Article 4(2)(b)(v) (cf. the previous paragraph).
Vendar pa mora biti v navedenem primeru pridobiteljem licence skladno s členom 4(2)(c) dovoljena aktivna in tudi pasivna prodaja končnim uporabnikom, brez vpliva na možnost omejitve pridobitelja licence na veleprodajne dejavnosti, kakor je predvideno v členu 4(2)(b)(v) (glej prejšnji odstavek).
It is recalled (cf. paragraph 39 above) that the block exemption covers licence agreements whereby the licensor imposes obligations which the licensee must or may impose on his buyers, including distributors.
Treba je opomniti (glej odstavek 39 zgoraj), da skupinska izjema zajema licenčne sporazume, s katerimi dajalec licence naloži obveznosti, ki jih pridobitelj licence mora ali sme naložiti svojim kupcem, vključno z distributerji.
However, these obligations must comply with the competition rules applicable to supply and distribution agreements.
Vendar pa morajo biti take obveznosti skladne s pravili o konkurenci, ki se uporabljajo za sporazume o dobavi in distribuciji.
Since the TTBER is limited to agreements between two parties the agreements concluded between the licensee and his buyers implementing such obligations are not covered by the TTBER.
Ker TTBER zajema samo sporazume med dvema strankama, sporazumi, ki so sklenjeni med pridobitelji licence in njihovimi kupci in s katerimi se izvajajo take obveznosti, niso zajeti s TTBER.
Such agreements are only block exempted when they comply with the Vertical Block Exemption (cf. section 2.5.2 above).
Takšni sporazumi so predmet skupinske izjeme le, če izpolnjujejo pogoje iz Skupinske izjeme za vertikalne sporazume (glej podpoglavje 2.5.2 zgoraj).
Excluded restrictions
Izključene omejitve
Article 5 of the TTBER lists four types of restrictions that are not block exempted and which thus require individual assessment of their anti-competitive and pro-competitive effects.
Člen 5 TTBER vsebuje štiri vrste omejitev, ki so izključene iz ugodnosti skupinske izjeme in jih je treba zato presoditi posamično na podlagi njihovih protikonkurenčnih učinkov in učinkov, ki spodbujajo konkurenco.
It follows from Article 5 that the inclusion in a licence agreement of any of the restrictions contained in these provisions does not prevent the application of the block exemption to the rest of the agreement.
Iz člena 5 izhaja, da vključitev katere koli omejitve iz teh določb v licenčni sporazum ne preprečuje uporabe skupinske izjeme za preostali del sporazuma.
It is only the individual restriction in question that is not block exempted, implying that individual assessment is required.
Iz ugodnosti skupinske izjeme je izključena le zadevna omejitev in jo je zato treba presoditi posamično.
Accordingly, the rule of severability applies to the restrictions set out in Article 5.
Zato se za omejitve iz člena 5 uporablja pravilo ločljivosti.
Article 5(1) provides that the block exemption shall not apply to the following three obligations:
Člen 5(1) določa, da skupinska izjema ne velja za naslednje tri obveznosti:
any direct or indirect obligation on the licensee to grant an exclusive licence to the licensor or to a third party designated by the licensor in respect of its own severable improvements to or its new applications of the licensed technology;
kakršno koli neposredno ali posredno obveznost pridobitelja licence za dodelitev izključne licence dajalcu licence ali tretjemu, ki ga določi dajalec licence, za lastne ločene izboljšave ali lastne nove načine uporabe licenčne tehnologije;
any direct or indirect obligation on the licensee to assign to the licensor or to a third party designated by the licensor rights to severable improvements to or new applications of the licensed technology;
kakršno koli neposredno ali posredno obveznost pridobitelja licence za odstop izključnih pravic dajalcu licence ali tretjemu, ki ga določi dajalec licence, za ločene izboljšave ali nove načine uporabe licenčne tehnologije;
any direct or indirect obligation on the licensee not to challenge the validity of intellectual property rights held by the licensor in the common market.
kakršno koli neposredno ali posredno obveznost pridobitelja licence, da ne izpodbija veljavnosti pravic intelektualne lastnine, s katerimi dajalec licence razpolaga na skupnem trgu.
However, the TTBER does cover the possibility for the licensor to terminate the licence agreement in the event that the licensee challenges the validity of the licensed technology.
Vendar pa je v TTBER predvidena možnost, da dajalec licence odpove licenčni sporazum, če pridobitelj licence izpodbija veljavnost licenčne tehnologije.
The purpose of Article 5(1)(a), (b) and (c) is to avoid block exemption of agreements that may reduce the incentive of licensees to innovate.
Namen člena 5(1)(a), (b) in (c) je preprečiti, da bi skupinska izjema vključevala sporazume, ki lahko zmanjšajo spodbude pridobiteljev licenc za inovacije.
Article 5(1)(a) and 5(1)(b) concerns exclusive grant backs or assignments to the licensor of severable improvements of the licensed technology.
Člen 5(1)(a) in 5(1)(b) se nanaša na izključne povratne odstope licence ali na odstope ločenih izboljšav licenčne tehnologije dajalcu licence.
An improvement is severable if it can be exploited without infringing upon the licensed technology.
Ločena izboljšava je izboljšava, ki jo je mogoče izkoriščati brez kršitve pravic v zvezi z licenčno tehnologijo.
An obligation to grant the licensor an exclusive licence to severable improvements of the licensed technology or to assign such improvements to the licensor is likely to reduce the licensee's incentive to innovate since it hinders the licensee in exploiting his improvements, including by way of licensing to third parties.
Obveznost, da se dajalcu licence dodeli izključna licenca za ločene izboljšave licenčne tehnologije, ali obveznost, da se dajalcu licence odstopijo takšne izboljšave, lahko za pridobitelja licence pomeni zmanjšanje spodbud za inovacije, saj ga ovira pri izkoriščanju njegovih izboljšav, ki vključuje tudi podeljevanje licenc tretjim.
This is the case both where the severable improvement concerns the same application as the licensed technology and where the licensee develops new applications of the licensed technology.
To velja za primere, v katerih se ločene izboljšave nanašajo na enak način uporabe kot licenčna tehnologija, pa tudi za primere, v katerih pridobitelj licence razvije nove načine uporabe licenčne tehnologije.
According to Article 5(1)(a) and (b) such obligations are not block exempted.
V skladu s členom 5(1)(a) in (b) so takšne obveznosti izključene iz ugodnosti skupinske izjeme.
However, the block exemption does cover non-exclusive grant back obligations in respect of severable improvements.
Vendar pa so v skupinski izjemi zajete obveznosti neizključnega povratnega odstopa v zvezi z ločenimi izboljšavami.
This is so even where the grant back obligation is non-reciprocal, i.e. only imposed on the licensee, and where under the agreement the licensor is entitled to feed on the severable improvements to other licensees.
To velja tudi, če je obveznost povratnega odstopa nevzajemna, tj. če je naložena le pridobitelju licence, in če ima v skladu s sporazumom dajalec licence pravico, da ločene izboljšave prenese na druge pridobitelje licenc.
A non-reciprocal grant back obligation may promote innovation and the dissemination of new technology by permitting the licensor to freely determine whether and to what extent to pass on his own improvements to his licensees.
Nevzajemna obveznost povratnega odstopa licence lahko spodbuja inovacije in razširjanje nove tehnologije, s tem ko dajalcu licence dopušča, da prosto določi, ali naj svoje lastne izboljšave prenese na pridobitelje licenc in v kolikšnem obsegu.
A feed-on clause may also promote the dissemination of technology because each licensee knows at the time of contracting that he will be on an equal footing with other licensees in terms of the technology on the basis of which he is producing.
Klavzula nadaljnjega prenosa lahko prav tako spodbuja razširjanje tehnologije, ker vsak pridobitelj licence v času sklenitve sporazuma ve, da bo glede na tehnologijo, na podlagi katere proizvaja, v enakem položaju kot drugi pridobitelji licenc.
Exclusive grant backs and obligations to assign non-severable improvements are not restrictive of competition within the meaning of Article 53(1) of the EEA Agreement since non-severable improvements cannot be exploited by the licensee without the licensor’s permission.
Izključni odstopi licence in obveznosti do odstopa neločenih izboljšav ne omejujejo konkurence v smislu člena 53(1) Sporazuma EGP, ker pridobitelj licence ne more izkoriščati neločenih izboljšav brez dovoljenja dajalca licence.
The application of Article 5(1)(a) and (b) does not depend on whether or not the licensor pays consideration in return for acquiring the improvement or for obtaining an exclusive licence.
Uporaba člena 5(1)(a) in (b) ni odvisna od tega, ali dajalec licence plača nadomestilo za prevzem izboljšav ali pridobitev izključne licence.
However, the existence and level of such consideration may be a relevant factor in the context of an individual assessment under Article 53.
Vendar pa sta lahko obstoj in višina takega nadomestila pomembna dejavnika v okviru posamične presoje v skladu s členom 53.
When grant backs are made against consideration it is less likely that the obligation creates a disincentive for the licensee to innovate.
Če se povratni odstopi licence izvedejo na podlagi plačila nadomestila, je manj verjetno, da bi obveznost nespodbudno vplivala na inovativnost pridobitelja licence.
In the assessment of exclusive grant backs outside the scope of the block exemption the market position of the licensor on the technology market is also a relevant factor.
Pri presoji izključnih povratnih odstopov licence zunaj področja uporabe skupinske izjeme je pomemben dejavnik tudi tržni položaj dajalca licence na tehnološkem trgu.
The stronger the position of the licensor, the more likely it is that exclusive grant back obligations will have restrictive effects on competition in innovation.
Močnejši položaj dajalca licence pomeni večjo verjetnost, da bodo obveznosti glede izključnih povratnih odstopov licence imele omejevalne učinke na konkurenco na področju inovacij.
The stronger the position of the licensor’s technology the more likely it is that the licensee will be an important source of innovation and future competition.
Močnejši kot je položaj tehnologije dajalca licence, večja verjetnost je, da bo pridobitelj licence pomenil pomemben vir inovacij in prihodnje konkurence.
The negative impact of grant back obligations can also be increased in case of parallel networks of licence agreements containing such obligations.
Negativni vpliv obveznosti povratnega odstopa licence se lahko poveča tudi v primeru vzporednih mrež licenčnih sporazumov, ki vsebujejo takšne obveznosti.
