Extension of the prescription period

The prescription period of the claims set out in sections 605 and 606 may also be extended by the creditor’s declaration asserting the creditor’s claims to compensation; such an extension will run for as long as the debtor refuses to satisfy the claim. Both the assertion of claims and the refusal to satisfy the same must be made in text form. Any further declaration concerning the same claim to compensation will not result in an additional extension of the prescription period.
