The Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure (BMVI), as the funding body for the federal funding program for broadband expansion, has decided to support the funding recipients in structuring the legal relationship with the selected telecommunications company. For this reason, the BMVI commissioned an external legal consultant to draw up sample contract texts including recommendations and instructions for the funding recipients. As a result, the following documents were then drawn up in comparison with the federal government’s approval notices
- Grant notification (sample notification)
- Sample and instructions for drafting an agreement between the grant recipient and the TKU (sample agreement)
- “Assistance in structuring your legal relationship with the telecommunications company you have selected” (introductory text of the BMVI)
which are now intended to assist the grant recipients in structuring the legal relationship with the selected telecommunications company within the framework of the economic viability gap model. The above-mentioned documents can be found here (login required).
