The rule you've quoted sounds like it agrees with the 2nd edition English rules,
which say that the outgoing Director decides how the 20% he receives is made up
(if there is a choice among the certificates in the new Director's hand and the
bank pool).

Since the new director, Sven, has both a 20% and two 10% certificates, the
program ought to be asking the outgoing director (Volker) which he would rather
receive in exchange for the director's certificate.  Still, it's reasonable for
the program to assume that Volker will always choose Sven's 20% certificate.
