230The Commission submits that that obligation is satisfied where it states the factors which it took into account to measure the gravity and the duration of the infringement for the purpose of calculating the fine (Case C-282/98 P Enso Española v Commission [2000] ECR I-9817, paragraphs 40 and 41; Case C-297/98 P SCA Holding v Commission [2000] ECR I-10101, paragraphs 56 to 65; and Case T-220/00 Cheil Jedang v Commission [2003] ECR II-2473, paragraph 218). Therefore the Commission is not required to state in its decision the turnover taken into account or what percentage thereof is levied in the form of a fine, since the question whether the 10 % maximum is attained does not form part of the statement of reasons for the decision. The figure of 10 % is the legal maximum limit of the fine which may be imposed and does not form part of the reasons for the measure adopted.
