French term or phrase: mandat vente succes
"FNAIM
MANDAT DE VENTE SUCCES N°
(article 6 loi N° 70-9 du 2 janvier 1970..."

It has been suggested to me that "SUCCES" (written in caps in the original) is an abbreviation for "succession", but I doubt this greatly.

semi-exclusive agency agreement
Explanation:
A "Mandat semi-exclusif" or Semi-exclusive agency agreement
This agreement is better for anyone who wants to keep fully open the option of finding a buyer directly. The agency remains the sole agency through whom the initial stages of the transaction can be carried out, but the agency and seller agree that both can actively look for a buyer.
If you, the seller, then find a buyer, you are still obliged to send them through the agency for the paperwork, but your contract with the agency will stipulate that in this case, the agency only takes a proportion, generally 50%, of the commission that would be taken if they found the buyer.

Reference information:
There is a corresponding English page, but there they discuss only the exclusive and non-exclusive agreements.

Le Mandat semi exclusif ou Mandat de vente Succès : Le mandataire est la seule société à qui vous avez confié la vente de votre appartement. Vous gardez cependant la possibilité de le vendre en direct. Dans ce cas le mandataire pour vous toutes les formalités du compromis de vente. Dans ce cas la commission du mandataire est réduite de 50% et à l’inverse, la somme que vous percevez est augmentée potentiellement d’autant.
