It follows from paragraphs 81 to 84 and 102 above that the agreements in question had as their object, on the one hand, the fixing of purchase and selling prices for bitumen and, on the other, the granting of preferential rebates to the members of the cartel and that the very nature of those agreements is therefore sufficient for it to be considered that they had as their object the prevention, restriction or distortion of competition within the common market.
En efecto, de los apartados 81 a 84 y 102 supra resulta que los acuerdos controvertidos tenían por objeto, por una parte, fijar el precio de compra y de venta del betún y, por otra, conceder descuentos preferentes a los miembros del cartel, y que, en consecuencia, la propia naturaleza de esos acuerdos basta para considerar que su finalidad era impedir, restringir o falsear el juego de la competencia dentro del mercado común.EurLex-2 EurLex-2
