Contracts
In compliance with the conditions prescribed by the Italian Anti-Trust Authority (Autorità Garante della Concorrenza e del Mercato) under Resolution C12245 – F2I S.G.R./PERSIDERA no. 27984 dated November 14th 2019, this section makes available the text formats of the contracts that EI Towers applies to national DVB-T broadcasters.
It is noted that, although in full respect of the conditions provided by the Resolution of the Italian Anti-Trust Authority, the texts of the contract can be subject to a single negotiation and supplementation in the event of specific customer needs or in the event of particular circumstances not theoretically and generally foreseeable.
It is furthermore noted that the formats published may be subject to modifications and additions, as to render the same compliant with any indication on the part of the Italian Anti-Trust Authority.
EI Towers, in addition to the services of installation, maintenance and hosting (the latter provided both with or without maintenance) as per the contractual standard texts made available under this section, informs that its customers may also benefit from a more technological and articulated service, defined as “per coverage” or “full service”, aimed at providing the customers on turn key basis with a network with a specific national coverage together with certain SLA (i.e. service level agreement) in terms of transmission continuity of the broadcasting signal along the Italian territory.
The standard level of articulation of the so called “Full Service Base” encompasses:
- the network project, by means of the selection of the proper diffusion sites and the definition of the proper architecture of the distribution network;
- the picking up and management of the client already compressed broadcasting signal just after the Head End;
- the synchronization and distribution of the signal towards the diffusion sites by means of proper distribution platforms;
- the management of the diffusion of the signal through the integration of receiving systems and radiation systems, under property and/or availability of EI Towers, together with the transmitters under property of the customers and/or in their availability.
Each customer shall also be entitled at its discretion to a more technological and articulated service which might encompass, alternatively and/or cumulatively:
- the so called Head End service;
- the availability of transmitters, being understood that in case of termination of the relevant contract the customer shall be entitled at its discretion to buy the transmitters;
- the quality control and signal monitoring on the territory.
It is noted that, although in full respect of the conditions provided by the Resolution of the Italian Anti-Trust Authority, the full service standard drafts under this section can be subject to a single negotiation and supplementation in the event of specific customer needs or in the event of particular circumstances not theoretically and generally foreseeable.
The two considerations under the full service standard drafts of this section:
- differ one from another according to two different network coverage of the Italian territory (alternatively 88% and 94% of the population);
- include the Head End service;
- do not include the availability of transmitters nor the quality control and signal monitoring on the territory.
Any other different configuration of the service (i.e.: full service “base”, which do not include the Head End service or any service extension which includes the availability of transmitters) shall be from time to time negotiated on the basis of the specific commercial, operative and technological needs of the customers.
