It states that the price below VKS is presumed to be predatory; in such case if the price is between VKS and VVS, it can be acknowledged to be predatory if it is used in order to eliminate the competitor.

Therefore economical elements must be treated only as a tool, providing the possibility to disclose the content of subjective intent.
