Article 2
Germany shall recover from Mercedes-Benz AG the difference between the purchase price paid by MB to the THA for Fahrzeugbau- und Fahrzeugtechnik Beteiligungsgesellschaft, Ludwigsfelde, and the market value of the company as established by an independent valuation, since this difference of DM 8,595 million represents State aid incompatible with Article 92 (3) (c) of the EC Treaty and Article 61 (3) (c) of the EEA Agreement. The repayment shall include interest charged from the date of the sale, namely 1 January 1994, at the rate applied in Germany in calculating the net grant equivalent of various types of aid with differing objectives.
