Against this background, Member States expressed a strong desire for an interpretative notice on this concept. e notice describes the current caselaw and does not in any way seek to limit the jurisdictional reach of Articles 81 and 82.
Obvestilo navaja različne vrste učinkovitosti, ki bi lahko predstavljale objektivne gospodarske koristi v smislu prvega pogoja.
It also sets out a quantitative threshold which the Commission, in its own proceedings, will consider to be a rebuttable presumption when the aggregate annual Community turnover of the undertakings concerned in the products covered by the agreement does not exceed EUR 40 million and the (aggregate) market share of the parties on any relevant market within the Community a ected by the agreement does not exceed 5 %.
Prav tako obvestilo pojasnjuje pojem potrošnikov in zahtevo, da morajo prejeti pravični delež iz izboljšanja učinkovitosti, ki je posledica sporazuma.
It also explains the notion of consumers and the requirement that they must receive a fair share of the e ciency gains resulting from the agreement. e anticompetitive aspects of the agreement are analysed under Article 81(1) and the procompetitive elements are analysed and balanced against the anticompetitive elements under Article 81(3).
Protikonkurenčni vidiki sporazuma se analizirajo po členu 81(1), elementi v prid konkurenci pa so analizirani in uravnoteženi s protikonkurenčnimi elementi v okviru člena 81(3).
Technology transfer block exemption regulation and guidelines
Uredba in smernice o skupinskih izjemah za prenos tehnologije
As part of the fundamental reform of EU antitrust enforcement rules, the Commission adopted on 7 April new rules in the form of a new Commission block exemption regulation, Regulation (EC) No 772/2004 (the technology transfer block
Komisija je 7. aprila kot del temeljne reforme izvrševanja protimonopolnih pravil EU sprejela nova pravila v obliki nove uredbe Komisije o skupinskih izjemah, Uredba (ES) št. 772/2004 („Technology Transfer Block Exemption Regulation“ –

Poročilo o politiki konkurence za leto 2004 – Zvezek 1
10. e new rules benefited from an extensive consultation exercise (15) in which stakeholders showed keen interest and submitted detailed and high quality input. ey replace Regulation (EC) No 240/96 (16
Ta pravila nadomeščajo Uredbo (ES) št. 240/96 (
), which has been criticised for its narrow scope and its formalistic character. e new rules are rmly aligned on the Commission’s new generation of block exemption regulations and have the general characteristics listed below.
), ki je bila kritizirana zaradi omejenega obsega in formalistične narave. Nova pravila so dosledno usklajena z novo generacijo uredb Komisije o skupinskih izjemah in imajo naslednje splošne značilnosti:
• e TTBER contains only a black list (
TTBER vsebuje samo črni seznam ( je zdaj izvzeto.
• e scope of the new rules covers all types of technology transfer agreements for the production of goods or services: not only patent and know-how licensing, but also designs and so ware copyright licensing.
Obseg novih pravil zajema vse vrste sporazumov o prenosu tehnologije za proizvodnjo blaga in storitev: ne samo licenciranja patentov ter znanja in izkušenj, ampak tudi modelov in avtorskih pravic za programsko opremo.
Where the Commission does not have the powers to adopt a block exemption regulation (18), as in the case of patent pools and copyright licensing in general, the guidelines give clear guidance as to future enforcement policy.
Kjer Komisija nima pooblastil za sprejetje uredbe o skupinskih izjemah (18), kot pri patentnih združenjih in licenciranju avtorskih pravic na splošno, dajejo smernice jasna navodila o prihodnji politiki izvrševanja.
• e new rules clearly distinguish licensing between competitors (which is more likely to harm competition) from licensing between non-competitors.
Nova pravila jasno ločijo licenciranje med tekmeci (s konkurenčnega vidika lahko bolj škodljivo) od licenciranja med podjetji, ki med seboj ne tekmujejo.
In particular, the applicable hardcore lists di er.
Predvsem se razlikujejo zadevni seznami nedopustnih omejitev.
• e TTBER provides the safe harbour only below certain market share thresholds, namely a cumulative 20 % for licensing agreements between competitors and 30 % each for agreements between non-competitors.
TTBER zagotavlja varni pristan samo pod določenimi pragovi tržnih deležev, in sicer 20-odstotni kumulativni prag za licenčne sporazume med tekmeci in 30-odstotni posamezni prag za sporazume med podjetji, ki med seboj ne tekmujejo.
Market shares need to be calculated both for the relevant a ected product market(s) and the technology market (19).
Tržne deleže je treba izračunati za ustrezen(-ne) prizadet(-e) proizvodni(-ne) trg(-e) in tudi za tehnološki trg (19).
• A licence agreement cannot benefit from the block exemption if it contains a socalled hardcore restriction of competition.
Licenčni sporazum ne more uživati ugodnosti skupinske izjeme, če vsebuje tako imenovano eksplicitno omejitev konkurence.
Over 70 submissions were received from industry and trade associations, law and IP societies, individual law rms, national authorities, individual companies, universities and consultants.Commission Regulation (EC) No 240/96 of 31 January 1996 on the application of Article 81(3) of the EC Treaty to certain categories of technology transfer agreements (OJ L 31, 9.2.1996).
Uredba Komisije (ES) št. 240/96 z dne 31. januarja 1996 o uporabi člena 81(3) Pogodbe ES za nekatere kategorije sporazumov o prenosu tehnologije (UL L 31, 9.2.1996).
For an evaluation of this regulation, see the Commission’s evaluation report, COM(2001) 786 nal.The previous 1996 regulation contained white and grey lists.Council Regulation No 19/65/EEC, the enabling regulation, only allows adoption of block exemption regulations for transfer of technology agreements between two parties and concerning industrial property rights.
Za oceno te uredbe glej poročilo Komisije o oceni, COM(2001) 786 konč.Prejšnja uredba 1996 je vsebovala bele in sive sezname.Uredba Sveta št. 19/65/EGS, uredba o pooblastitvi, dovoljuje samo sprejetje uredb o skupinskih izjemah za sporazume o prenosu tehnologije med dvema strankama in v zvezi s pravicami industrijske lastnine.
The market share on the technology market is also based on the product market in that it is de ned in terms of the market share of products produced with the licensed technology.
Tržni delež na tehnološkem trgu prav tako temelji na proizvodnem trgu, s tem da je opredeljen v smislu tržnega deleža proizvodov, proizvedenih z licencirano tehnologijo.
For the market share calculation, sales value data for the preceding calendar year are normally to be used.
Za izračun tržnega deleža se običajno uporabljajo podatki o prodajni vrednosti za prejšnje koledarsko leto.
A two-year grace period is provided for in case the relevant threshold is exceeded.
V primeru prekoračitve ustreznega praga je zagotovljen dveletni odlog plačila.To zlasti zadeva obveznosti pridobitelja licence, da izključno privoli v ali določi neodvisne izboljšave ali nove uporabe licencirane tehnologije, ter klavzule o neizpodbijanju.
11. e hardcore list in Article 4 of the TTBER specifies the restraints which mean that the entire agreement cannot benefit from the block exemption and for which individual application of Article 81(3) is also unlikely (21).
Za licenciranje med tekmeci in podjetji, ki med seboj ne tekmujejo, vsebuje člen 4 posebne izjeme od seznamov nedopustnih omejitev.
Individual assessment based on the principles described in the guidelines is required.
Potrebna je individualna ocena na podlagi načel, opisanih v smernicah.
In order to promote predictability beyond the application of the TTBER and to confine detailed analysis to cases that are likely to present real competition concerns, the Commission has created a second safe harbour within the guidelines.
Komisija je za spodbujanje predvidljivosti, ki presega obseg TTBER, in za omejitev podrobne analize na zadeve, kjer bi lahko prišlo do resničnih težav za konkurenco, znotraj smernic vzpostavila drugi varni pristan.
It takes the view that outside the area of hardcore restrictions Article 81 is unlikely to be infringed where there are four or more independently controlled technologies — in addition to the technologies controlled by the parties to the agreement — that may be substitutable for the licensed technology at a comparable cost to the user.
Zavzema stališče, da zunaj področja nedopustnih omejitev kršitev člena 81 ni verjetna, kadar obstaja štiri ali več neodvisno nadzorovanih tehnologij poleg tehnologij, ki jih nadzirajo stranke sporazuma, ki so lahko ob primerljivih stroških za uporabnika zamenljive z licenčno tehnologijo.
This concerns, in particular, obligations on the licensee to exclusively grant back or assign severable improvements to or new applications of the licensed technology and no-challenge clauses.The TTBER now covers a number of commonly used restrictions such as: eld of use restrictions, active and passive sale restrictions between licensor and licensee to protect their exclusive territories, and captive use restrictions.These are arrangements whereby two or more parties assemble a package of technology which is licensed not only to contributors to the pool but also to third parties.
TTBER zajema sedaj številne najpogosteje uporabljene omejitve, kot so: omejitve področja uporabe, omejitve aktivnih in pasivnih prodaj med dajalcem in pridobiteljem licence za zaščito njunih izključnih ozemelj ter omejitve lastne uporabe.Tj. dogovorov, s katerimi dve ali več strank sestavi paket tehnologije, ki se licencira ne samo tistim, ki prispevajo v združenje, ampak tudi tretjim strankam.
Regulation (EEC) No 4056/86 applies the EU competition rules to maritime transport and one of the main issues of the review is whether the conditions for exemption under Article 81(3) of the Treaty for price xing and capacity regulation by liner shipping conferences are still justified. ed.
Uredba (EGS) št. 4056/86 uporablja pravila konkurence EU v pomorskem prometu, eno glavnih vprašanj pregleda pa je, ali so pogoji za izjemo od določanja cen in urejanja zmogljivosti z linijskimi ladijskimi konferencami po členu 81(3) Pogodbe še vedno upravičeni.
On the basis of a thorough consultation process (36 submissions were received in response to a consultation paper and a public hearing was held) the Commission discussed on 28 May in an informal meeting with competition and transport authorities from the Member States the outcome of the review process so far. is resulted in the adoption, on 13 October, of a White Paper (23), in which the Commission concluded that there is no conclusive economic evidence that the assumptions on which the block exemption was justified at the time of its adoption in 1986 are, in the present market circumstances and on the basis of the four cumulative conditions of Article 81(3) of the Treaty, still justified.
Komisija je 28. maja na podlagi temeljitega posvetovalnega postopka (kot odgovor na posvetovalni dokument je prišlo 36 predlogov, potekalo pa je tudi javno zaslišanje) na neformalnem sestanku z organi za konkurenco in promet držav članic razpravljala o dotedanjih rezultatih pregleda. Na podlagi tega je Komisija 13. oktobra sprejela belo knjigo (23), v kateri je sklenila, da ni prepričljivega ekonomskega dokaza, da so domneve, na podlagi katerih je bila skupinska izjema upravičena ob svojem sprejetju leta 1986, v teh tržnih okoliščinah in na podlagi štirih kumulativnih pogojev člena 81(3) Pogodbe še upravičene.
In its White Paper the Commission, however, lethe door open to possible alternatives to the present liner conference system on routes to and from the EU.
Komisija pa je v svoji beli knjigi pustila odprto možnost za alternativo sedanjemu sistemu linijskih konferenc na plovnih poteh v EU in iz nje.
Suppliers of liner shipping services, represented by the European Liners A airs Association (ELAA), have already put forward concrete ideas about such a framework.
Ponudniki storitev linijskega prevoza, ki jih predstavlja Evropsko združenje za linijske zadeve (EZLZ), so že ponudili konkretne zamisli o takem okviru.
However, before adopting its position on those ideas, the Commission has invited interested third parties to submit their comments, as well as to provide alternative options.
Vendar je Komisija, preden je izrazila stališče o teh zamislih, zainteresirane tretje stranke povabila, da predložijo svoje pripombe in alternative.
Commission Regulation (EC) No 823/2000 on the application of Article 81(3) of the Treaty to certain categories of agreements, decisions and concerted practices between liner shipping companies (consortia) provides a block exemption in relation to consortium agreements in maritime transport. e objective of a consortium agreement between two or more vessel operating companies which provide international liner shipping services is to bring about cooperation in the joint operation of a maritime transport service so as to improve the productivity and quality of the liner shipping service, and to encourage greater utilisation of the containers and the more e cient use of vessel capacity.
Uredba Komisije (ES) št. 823/2000 o uporabi člena 81(3) Pogodbe za nekatere vrste sporazumov, sklepov in usklajenih ravnanj med ladjarskimi družbami za linijske prevoze (konzorciji) zagotavlja skupinsko izjemo za konzorcijske pogodbe v pomorskem prometu. Cilj konzorcijske pogodbe med dvema ali več ladjarskimi podjetji, ki zagotavljajo mednarodne storitve za linijski prevoz, je vzpostaviti sodelovanje pri skupnem izvajanju storitev pomorskega prometa, da bi tako izboljšali produktivnost in kakovost storitev linijskega prevoza ter spodbujali večjo izkoriščenost zabojnikov in učinkovitejšo uporabo zmogljivosti plovil.

Extension of competition enforcement powers in international air transport — Amendments to Regulations (EEC) Nos 3975/87 and 3976/87
Razširitev pooblastil za uveljavitev konkurence v mednarodnem letalskem prometu – spremembe Uredb (EGS) št. 3975/87 in 3976/87
On 26 February, the Council adopted Regulation (EC) No 411/2004 (26) amending two existing regulations in the air transport sector (27) and Regulation (EC)
Svet je 26. februarja sprejel Uredbo (ES) št. 411/2004 (26) o spremembi dveh obstoječih uredb v letalskem prometu (27) in Uredbe (ES) št. 1/2003.
No 1/2003. In essence, Regulation (EC) No 1/2003 will thus apply also to air transport between the European Community and third countries.
Uredba (ES) št. 1/2003 bo tako veljala tudi za letalski promet med Evropsko skupnostjo in tretjimi državami.
Furthermore, the scope of the Council regulation enabling the Commission to issue block exemption regulations on certain listed air transport activities (a ecting also long-haul routes) is broadened.
Poleg tega je bilo razširjeno področje uporabe uredbe Sveta, ki Komisiji omogoča izdajo uredb o skupinskih izjemah za določene navedene dejavnosti letalskega prometa (z vplivom tudi na poti z daljšimi razdaljami).
Until the adoption of this regulation, the Commission lacked e ective enforcement powers in this eld of air transport between the EU and third countries, although there was no doubt that the competition rules applied also to these routes (28). e application of Regulation (EC) No 1/2003 to all air transport, irrespective of the routes involved, nally brings air transport under the general framework of antitrust enforcement.
Komisija do sprejetja te uredbe na področju letalskega prometa med EU in tretjimi državami ni imela učinkovitih pooblastil za izvrševanje, čeprav so pravila konkurence nedvomno veljala tudi za te poti (28). Uporaba Uredbe (ES) št. 1/2003 za ves letalski promet, ne glede na vključene poti, končno postavlja letalski promet v splošen okvir izvrševanja protimonopolnih pravil.
Regulation (EC) No 411/2004 entered into force on 1 May, together with the modernisation package.
Uredba (ES) št. 411/2004 je začela veljati 1. maja, skupaj s posodobitvenim svežnjem.

Review of procedural rules: new access to le notice
Pregled postopkovnih pravil: novo obvestilo o dostopu do spisa
Access to the le is an important procedural step and safeguard for the rights of defence in all contentious antitrust and merger cases.
Dostop do spisa je pomemben korak v postopku in pomeni varstvo pravice do obrambe v vseh spornih primerih boja proti primerom monopolov in združitev.
When the Commission has issued a statement of objection (SO), access to the le enables the addressees to acquaint themselves with the evidence in the Commission’s le with a view to e ectively expressing their views on the conclusions reached by the Commission in the SO (29).
Kadar Komisija izda obvestilo o nasprotovanju, naslovnikom teh obvestil o nasprotovanju omogoča seznanitev z dokazi v spisu Komisije, da bi tako učinkovito izrazili svoja stališča o sklepih Komisije v obvestilu o nasprotovanju (29).
In order to enhance transparency and clarity of the Commission’s procedure in processing requests for access to the le (30), the Commission embarked on a revision of the current access to le notice dating from 1997 (31).
Da bi Komisija povečala preglednost in jasnost svojega postopka pri obdelavi zahtev za dostop do spisa (30), je začela pregled trenutnega obvestila o dostopu do spisa iz leta 1997 (31).
Following the experience gained in applying the 1997 notice, the revision takes account of developments both in Commission practice (32) and in recent caselaw (33). e review also seeks to ensure that the access to le rules are compatible with the modernised antitrust and merger rules, as well as the current
Po izkušnjah, pridobljenih pri uporabi obvestila iz leta 1997, pregled upošteva razvoj prakse Komisije (32) in tudi razvoj najnovejše sodne prakse (33). Pregled si prizadeva tudi za združljivost pravil dostopa do spisa s posodobljenimi protimonopolnimi pravili in pravili o združitvah ter tudi
