Along with 3.7 billion crowns, which are compensation for damages and a contractual penalty for breach of IPB's contractual obligations in 1999, ČSOB must also pay court costs of five million crowns, she said. “The plaintiff failed in the rest of his claim and the arbitration panel ordered him to pay ČSOB court costs of CZK 17.4 million. ČSOB is considering possible further legal steps leading to the revision of this award,” added ČSOB.
