Addendum to Patient Bus 2017 contract

Regarding the Patient Bus 2017 contract, Trafikselskabet Movia has amended the contracts' index regulation, so that the contracts in 2026 will be indexed according to SBLON1, TOT business total, Companies and organizations, with June 2023 as the conversion point between ILON12, TOT business total, seasonally adjusted, and SBLON1, TOT business total, Companies and organizations. The purpose of the amendment is to align the indexing with the original tender documents and the purpose of the index stipulated in the contracts. The value of the amendment will have a marginal percentage impact on the total turnover of the contracts. It is on this basis that Trafikselskabet Movia's opinion is that the replacement of the conversion time for sub-indices does not constitute a material change to the contracts, cf. the Utilities Directive (2014/25/EU) Article 89, paragraph 4. Even if the opposite were the case, the amendment, which does not change the overall nature of the contracts, would be due to circumstances that have arisen from unforeseeable circumstances, cf. the Utilities Directive (2014/25/EU) Art. 89, paragraph 1, letter c, as Trafikselskabet Movia could not foresee, firstly, that the original index would cease to exist, and secondly, could not foresee that the shift to SBLON1 with the 3rd quarter of 2024 as the conversion point for the sub-index for wages would lead to a cost index that in reality could not take into account the collectively agreed wage development in any way, and thus the cost development, which a cost index should otherwise balance. The implemented adjustment is thus necessary to ensure that the index is fit for purpose.
