The Parties agree to task the Committee under Article 14 to define the appropriate mechanism aimed at ensuring effective contacts and participation in the research programmes. 1. The Parties shall encourage and support cooperation between the industries of the two sides, through such means as joint ventures and Korean participation in relevant European industrial associations as well as European participation in relevant Korean industrial associations, with the objective of setting up the GALILEO system as well as promoting the use and development of GALILEO applications and services. 2. The Parties will establish a joint advisory group on industrial cooperation under the Steering Committee set up under Article 14 in order to investigate and guide the cooperation on satellite development and manufacturing, launch services, ground station facilities, and application products. 3. To facilitate industrial cooperation the Parties shall grant and ensure adequate and effective protection of intellectual property rights in the fields and sectors relevant to the development and operation of GALILEO/EGNOS, in accordance with the relevant international standards set by the TRIPS Agreement and international conventions to which both parties are signatories, including effective means of enforcing such standards. 4. Exports by Korea to third countries of sensitive items and technologies specifically developed and funded by the GALILEO programme, and defined by the competent GALILEO security authority to be under export control, will have to be submitted by Korea for prior authorisation by the competent GALILEO security authority. Any separate agreement referred to in Article 4(2) of the Agreement shall also provide an appropriate mechanism for the Parties to recommend potential items to be subject to export authorisation. 5. In order to contribute to the objectives of the Agreement, the Parties shall encourage strengthened ties between the European Space Agency and the Ministries and agencies of Korea related to GNSS. 1. The Parties shall encourage trade and investment in European and Korean satellite navigation infrastructure, equipment, GALILEO local elements and applications. 2. To this end, the Parties shall make an effort to raise the level of public awareness concerning the GALILEO satellite navigation activities, identify potential barriers to growth in GNSS applications and take appropriate measures to facilitate this growth. 3. To identify and respond effectively to user needs the Parties shall consider establishing a joint GNSS user forum. 4. This Agreement shall not affect the rights and obligations of the Parties under the Marrakech Agreement establishing the World Trade Organization. 1. Recognising the value of coordinating approaches in international standardisation and certification concerning global satellite navigation services, the Parties will jointly support the development of GALILEO standards and promote their application worldwide, emphasising interoperability with other GNSS systems. One objective of the coordination is to promote broad and innovative use of the GALILEO services for open, commercial and safety of life purposes as a worldwide navigation and timing standard. The Parties agree to endeavour to create favourable conditions for developing GALILEO applications. 2. To promote and implement the objectives of this Agreement, the Parties shall, as appropriate, cooperate on satellite positioning, navigation and timing-related matters that arise particularly in the International Civil Aviation Organization, the International Maritime Organization and the International Telecommunications Union. 3. At the bilateral level the Parties shall ensure that measures relating to technical standards, certification and licensing requirements and procedures concerning GNSS do not constitute unnecessary barriers to trade. Domestic requirements shall be based on objective, non-discriminatory and applicable transparent criteria. 4. The Parties shall take the necessary regulatory measures to allow the use of GALILEO receivers, ground and space segments in the territories under their jurisdiction. In this regard, the government of the Republic of Korea in the area of radio communications shall grant GALILEO treatment no less favourable than that accorded to any other like services. 5. The Parties shall promote the participation of Korean representatives in European standardisation organisations. 1. The Parties shall cooperate with one other to define and implement ground system architectures allowing an optimal guarantee of GALILEO/EGNOS integrity, accuracy and continuity of GALILEO and EGNOS services and interoperability with other GNSS systems. 2. To this end the Parties will cooperate at the regional level with a view to implementing a ground regional augmentation system based on the GALILEO system in Korea. Such a regional system is expected to provide regional integrity services in addition to those provided by the GALILEO system globally. As a precursor, the Parties may consider the extension of EGNOS in the East Asian region. 3. At the local level, the Parties shall facilitate the development of local GALILEO elements. 1. The Parties shall protect the Global Navigation Satellite Systems against misuse, interference, disruption and hostile acts. 2. The Parties shall take all practicable steps to ensure the continuity and safety of the satellite navigation services and the related infrastructure in their jurisdiction. 3. The Parties recognise that cooperation to ensure the security of the GALILEO system and services is an important common objective. 4. Hence the Parties shall establish an appropriate consultation channel to address GNSS security issues. The practical arrangements and procedures are to be defined between the competent security authorities of both Parties. The Parties shall cooperate to define and implement a liability regime and cost recovery arrangements in order to facilitate the provision of civil GNSS services. 1. The coordination and facilitation of cooperation activities under this Agreement shall be accomplished by the Government of the Republic of Korea on behalf of Korea and by the European Commission on behalf of the Community and its Member States. 2. In accordance with the objective in Article 1, these two entities shall establish a GNSS Steering Committee, hereinafter referred to as "the Committee" for the management of this Agreement. This Committee shall consist of official representatives of each Party and it shall establish its own rules of procedure based on mutual consensus. The functions of the Steering Committee shall include: (a) promoting, making recommendations to the Parties and overseeing the different cooperation activities related to the Agreement; (b) advising the Parties on the ways to enhance and improve cooperation in line with the principles set out in this Agreement; (c) reviewing the efficient functioning and implementation of this Agreement; and (d) discussing the possibility of extending cooperation to the areas referred to in Paragraph 2 of Article 4. 3. The Committee shall, as a general rule, meet annually. The meetings will be held alternatively in the Community and in Korea. Extraordinary meetings may be organised at the request of either Party. The costs incurred by the Committee or in its name shall be borne by the Party which recommended or designated the member or members of the Committee. The costs other than those for travel and accommodation which are directly associated with meetings of the Committee shall be borne by the host Party. The Committee may set up Joint Technical Working Groups on specific subjects the Parties consider appropriate, such as industrial cooperation and standardisation. 4. The Parties welcome the potential participation of Korea in the European GNSS Supervisory Authority, in accordance with the applicable European Community legislation and the modalities and procedures governing such participation. 1. Each Party shall bear the costs of fulfilling its respective responsibilities under this Agreement, unless otherwise agreed upon by the Parties. The modalities and procedures referred to in Article 14(4) will include an appropriate financial contribution to the GALILEO programme by the non-EU country deciding to apply to participate in the Supervisory Authority. 2. The Parties shall take all reasonable steps in accordance with their laws and regulations to facilitate entry into, stay in and exit from its territory of persons, capital, material, data and equipment involved in or used in cooperation activities under this Agreement. 3. When specific cooperation schemes of one Party provide for financial support for participants from the other Party, any such grants, financial contributions or other forms of contribution from one Party to the participants of the other Party in support of those activities shall be granted tax and customs exemption in accordance with the relevant laws and regulations in force in the territories of each Party at the time such grants and financial contributions or other forms of contribution are made. 1. The Parties shall establish administrative arrangements and enquiry points in order to provide for consultations and effective implementation of the provisions of this Agreement. 2. The Parties shall encourage further exchanges of information concerning satellite navigation among the institutions and enterprises of the two sides. 1. The Parties shall promptly discuss, at the request of any of them, on any questions arising from the interpretation or application of this Agreement. Any disputes concerning the interpretation or application of this Agreement shall be settled by friendly consultations between the Parties. 2. Paragraph 1 shall not prevent the Parties from having recourse to dispute settlement under the WTO Agreements. 1. This Agreement enters into force on the first day of the month following the date on which the Parties have notified the completion of the procedures necessary for this purpose. Notifications shall be sent to the Council of the European Union which shall be the depository of this Agreement. 2. The termination of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or duration of any arrangements made under it or any specific rights or obligations that have ensued in the field of intellectual property rights. 3. This Agreement may be amended by mutual agreement of the Parties in writing. Any amendment shall enter into force on the first day of the month following the date on which the Parties have notified the Depository of the completion of their procedures necessary for this purpose. 4. This Agreement shall remain in force for a period of five years and shall continue in force thereafter unless terminated by either Party at the end of the initial five-year period or at any time thereafter by giving to the other Party an advance notice of at least six months in writing of its intention to terminate this Agreement.
