(1) If the commercial employee violates their duty under section 60, the principal may claim damages; alternatively, the principal may demand that the commercial employee accept that the transactions they made for their own account be considered as having been made for the principal's account, and that they surrender the remuneration received from transactions made for the account of third parties or assign their claim to such remuneration to the principal.
(2) These claims become statute-barred three months from the date on which the principal gained knowledge of the conclusion of the transaction or would have gained knowledge thereof had the principal not shown gross negligence; irrespective of such knowledge or of a grossly negligent lack of knowledge, the period of prescription is five years from the date of conclusion of the transaction.
