table>(1)The European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF) was established to provide additional support for workers made redundant as a result of major structural changes in world trade patterns due to globalisation and to assist them with their reintegration into the labour market.
(2)The EGF shall not exceed a maximum annual amount of EUR 150 million (2011 prices), as laid down in Article 12 of Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 1311/2013.

(3)Romania submitted an application to mobilise the EGF, in respect of redundancies in the enterprise SC Mechel Campia Turzii SA and one downstream producer, on 21 December 2012 and supplemented it by additional information up to 4 March 2014. This application complies with the requirements for determining the financial contributions as laid down in Article 10 of Regulation (EC) No 1927/2006. The Commission, therefore, proposes to mobilise an amount of EUR 3 571 150.

(4)The EGF should, therefore, be mobilised in order to provide a financial contribution for the application submitted by Romania,
