67It follows that the Commission has not discharged the burden of proof in the matter and has accordingly failed to show that, when Coppens participated in the agreement on cover quotes, it was aware of the agreement on commissions implemented by the other undertakings participating in the cartel, or that it could reasonably have foreseen that agreement. In consequence, the Commission could not lawfully find Coppens liable for the agreement on commissions and attribute to it liability in respect of all the forms of conduct comprising the single and continuous infringement. To that extent, the first part of the first plea raised by Coppens in support of its action is therefore well founded.
