• In the event of the chamber conducting affairs, in which the court has ruled entirely or partially in favour of the Client’s demands or which have been concluded by the means of a settlement, the chamber is entitled to the additional remuneration, apart from the one agreed, in the individually fixed percentage ratio of the value of the enforced amount or interests in question, dependent in particular on the nature, scope and degree of intricacy of the case as well as the chamber’s required work expenditure (appreciation remuneration).
• In cases, where the Client’s demands have been overruled or dismissed, or in which the court has adjudged the disputable amount or interests to the adversary, the chamber shall not be eligible for the above mentioned additional remuneration, unless, contrary to the chamber’s given statement, the Client had instructed the chamber to pursue claim or proceed with it.
