1.—(1) OFCOM shall determine an additional price for each winning assignment stage bid for numbered 2.6 GHz paired frequency lots by imposition of the requirements that the additional prices must satisfy that are set out in paragraphs 2 to 5.
(2) Where an additional price so determined includes a fraction of a pound, the additional price shall be that price rounded up to the nearest whole pound.
2. The additional price for each winning assignment stage bid for numbered 2.6 GHz paired frequency lots shall be no less than zero and no more than the amount of that winning assignment stage bid.
3.—(1) Taking the additional prices for the winning assignment stage bids for numbered 2.6 GHz paired frequency lots together, the additional prices shall be such that if—
(a)the amount bid by each winning bidder for the assignment stage option selected in its winning assignment stage bid for numbered 2.6 GHz paired frequency lots had been the additional price rather than the amount of its winning assignment stage bid (“2.6 GHz paired reduced winning assignment stage bid”), and
(b)subject to sub-paragraph (2), the amount bid by each winning bidder in respect of each other valid assignment stage bid for numbered 2.6 GHz paired frequency lots made by that bidder had been reduced by an amount equal to the difference between the amount of its winning assignment stage bid for numbered 2.6 GHz paired frequency lots and the additional price for that relevant winning assignment stage bid,
the combination of the 2.6 GHz paired reduced winning assignment stage bids submitted by the winning bidders would have been the valid combination of assignment stage bids or one of the valid combinations of assignment stage bids (as the case may be) for numbered 2.6 GHz paired frequency lots having the highest total value of amounts bid.
(2) Where the amount of a bid has been reduced in accordance with sub-paragraph (1)(b) and is less than zero, the amount of that bid shall be treated as if it were zero for the purposes of this paragraph.
(3) The bids mentioned in sub-paragraphs (1)(a) and (1)(b) shall, after reduction of the amount of those bids in accordance with those paragraphs, be treated as valid assignment stage bids for the purposes of this paragraph.
4. Taking the additional prices for the winning assignment stage bids for numbered 2.6 GHz paired frequency lots together, the total of those additional prices shall be no greater than the total of any other prices for the winning assignment stage bids for numbered 2.6 GHz paired frequency lots that satisfy the requirements set out in paragraphs 2 and 3.
5.—(1) Taking the additional prices for the winning assignment stage bids for numbered 2.6 GHz paired frequency lots together, the opportunity cost variance of those additional prices calculated in accordance with sub-paragraph (2) shall be less than the opportunity cost variance, calculated in accordance with sub-paragraph (2), of any other prices for the winning assignment stage bids for numbered 2.6 GHz paired frequency lots that satisfy the requirements set out in paragraphs 2 to 4.
(2) The opportunity cost variance (“”) of prices mentioned in sub-paragraph (1) is the amount calculated in accordance with the formula—
where—
“” is the amount calculated in accordance with the formula set out in sub-paragraph (3) in respect of that winning assignment stage bid.
(3) The formula is—
where—
“” is the amount calculated in accordance with sub-paragraph (4);
(4) The amount calculated in accordance with this sub-paragraph is the total amount of the valid combination of assignment stage bids for numbered 2.6 GHz paired frequency lots or one of the valid combinations of assignment stage bids for numbered 2.6 GHz paired frequency lots (as the case may be) having the highest total value of amounts bid where, for each assignment stage bid for numbered 2.6 GHz paired frequency lots made by the winning bidder that submitted the winning assignment stage bid for which is the price, the amount of that assignment stage bid is treated as if it were zero for the purposes of this sub-paragraph.
(5) Where the amount of an assignment stage bid is treated as if it were zero in accordance with sub-paragraph (4), that assignment stage bid shall be treated as a valid assignment stage bid for the purposes of that sub-paragraph.
6. In this Schedule “valid combination of assignment stage bids” shall be construed in accordance with regulation 104.
