2. All preceding evaluation reports and ranking lists for the AFIF call(s) in which those two grants were awarded.

3. All progress reports, monitoring reports, amendments, and modifications received from or sent to Tesla Italy S.r.l. and Tesla Poland sp. z o.o. under those grant agreements through the date of this request.

4. Any additional AFIF or CEF Transport grant applications, awards, or correspondence in which any Tesla entity is named as applicant, beneficiary, or contractor, from 1 January 2021 to date.
