Ltd together with their related companies in the European Union, jointly covered by the TARIC additional code: B791 (Trina Solar).

(6) By Implementing Decision 2014/657/EU the Commission accepted a proposal by the group of the exporting producers together with the CCCME for clarifications concerning the implementation of the undertaking for the product concerned covered by the undertaking, that is modules and cells originating in or consigned from the PRC, currently falling within CN codes ex85414090 (TARIC codes 8541409021, 8541409029, 8541409031 and 8541409039) produced by the exporting producers (product covered). The anti-dumping and countervailing duties referred to in recital 4 above, together with the undertaking, are jointly referred to as measures.

(7) By Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/866 the Commission withdrew the acceptance of the undertaking for three exporting producers.

(8) By Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/1403 the Commission withdrew the acceptance of the undertaking for another exporting producer.

(9) By Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2018 the Commission withdrew the acceptance of the undertaking for two exporting producers.
