So far as concerns the burden of proof resting upon them, the applicants submit, referring to the order in Case C-365/03 P(R) Industrias Químicas del Vallés v Commission [2003] ECR I-12389, at paragraph 6, that it is sufficient for them to show that they will ‘probably’ suffer serious and irreparable damage, because they ‘might find it difficult to offer’ alternative products to their clients and would ‘run the risk’ of suffering an irreparable loss of market shares given the conditions of competition on the market.
Oma tõendamiskohustuse osas viitavad hagejad Euroopa Kohtu presidendi 21. oktoobri 2003. aasta määrusele kohtuasjas C-365/03 P(R): Industrias Químicas del Vallés vs. komisjon (EKL 2003, lk I-12389, punkt 6), väites, et nende puhul piisab tõendamisest, et nad kannaksid „tõenäoliselt” tõsist ja korvamatut kahju, kuna neil oleks „keeruline pakkuda” oma klientidele asendustooteid ning nad „riskivad” turuosade lõpliku kaotusega, arvestades konkurentsitingimusi asjaomasel turul.
