§ Article 96(untitled)

Minority and majority additional mandates

1. Where as a result of due application of parts 4-9 of Article 95 of this Code any

 political party receives the majority but less than 54 per cent of the total number

 of mandates distributed under parts 4-9 of Article 95, that political party shall

 receive as many minimum additional mandates as necessary for the number of

 mandates of that political party, expressed in per cents, to result in no less than

 54 per cent.

2. Where as a result of due application of parts 4-9 of Article 95 of this Code any
 political party receives more than 2/3 of the total number of mandates
 distributed under parts 4-9 of Article 95, other political parties shall receive as
 many minimum additional mandates (AM) as necessary for the total number of
 their mandates to result in no less than 1/3 of the total number of mandates of
 the National Assembly. The number of additional mandates available for each
 political party shall be determined as follows: the number of mandates received
 by that political party shall be multiplied by the number of AM, the product shall
 be divided by the total number of mandates received — before providing
 additional mandates — by political parties receiving additional mandates, and the
 integer numbers shall be parted which shall be the numbers of additional

 169
 mandates available for the given political party. The remaining mandates shall be
 distributed among political parties by the sequence of value of remainders, by
 the principle of one mandate to each. In case the values of remainders are equal,
 the contested mandate shall be given to the political party with the highest
 number of mandates, and in the event of a tie, the mandate shall be given by
 drawing of lots.

3. Distribution of additional mandates, prescribed by this Article, among the
 national and district electoral lists, as well as among electoral districts, shall be
 carried out in such a manner so as to observe the rules of part 7 of Article 95 of
 this Code for the distribution of mandates available for a political party.
