Summary: Interpretation of the order of the Constitutional Court – assessment of equitable compensation in a ‘special contract’ – test for reviewability of determination of a Chief Executive Officer (CEO) as a deadlock breaker – test as formulated in Bekker v RSA Factors ( Bekker test) distinct from the test for reviewability under the Promotion of Administrative Justice Act 3 of 2000 – requirements to satisfy the Bekker test – high court did not apply the second leg of the Bekker test – order of the high court remitting the determination to the CEO with a list of directives not sought – Bekker test amplified with the caveat in Dublin v Diner – Dean v Prince : reasonableness, fairness and bona fides . On appeal from: Gauteng Division of the High Court, Pretoria (Hughes J, sitting as court of first instance): 1 Save to the extent set out below, the appeal is dismissed with costs including those of three counsel where so employed. 2 The order of the high court is set aside and substituted with the following: ‘ (a) The decision of the First Respondent delivered on 9 January 2019, determining the compensation to be paid to the Applicant by the Second Respondent, is reviewed and set aside, (b) The decision referred to in paragraph 1 is substituted with a decision that the applicant is entitled to be paid 5% – 7.5% of the total revenue of the PCM product from March 2001 to date of judgment by the Second Respondent, together with the mora interest thereon, alternatively interest in terms of Section 2A(5) of the Prescribed Rate of Interest Act, 55 of 1975 as amended, and that the total revenue of the PCM product shall be that set out in Model 9A, 9B & 9BB submitted to the First Respondent by the Applicant (Annexure “NM30” – “NM32” to the Supplementary Founding Affidavit) (c) It is directed that first respondent represented by the second respondent shall bear the costs of the negotiations referred to in the Constitutional Court Judgment, which costs shall include: (i) Drafting of the submissions, (ii) Preparation for and the hearing before the first respondent, (iii) Reservation, preparation and qualifying fees of experts, involved in the negotiations and hearing on an attorney and own client scale.

The order reads: ‘ (1) The application to strike out is dismissed with no order as to costs.
