— |
rule that the applicant suffered loss as a result of that improper conduct; |
— |
rule that the Community is required to compensate that loss; |

take formal notice that Mr Perry estimates his loss at EUR 1 000 000; |
— |
order the Community to pay Mr Perry EUR 1 000 000; |

— |
rule that it is equitable that the Community pay the costs and fees of the defence, in the sum of EUR 10 000. |
Pleas in law and main arguments
The applicant seeks compensation for the loss which it considers it suffered as a result of accusations of misuse of Community subsidies in the performance of certain contracts concluded between the applicant's companies and the Commission in the context of the European Union humanitarian aid programmes for Bosnia and the Great Lakes region of Africa.
The pleas and main arguments put forward by the applicant are identical to those put forward in case T-132/98 Perry Group and Isibiris v Commission (1).
