The relevant (first) document is in Dutch however. The second is in English but is only about how to encode 'premium' status in the barcode on the boarding pass.
So mention of 15% max here per airline by season:

9. The maximum percentage of passengers that may be regarded as "Premium" as a "premium" applies per individual airline and may in no way be transferred to another airline.

10. Schiphol reserves the right if the number of premium passengers exceeds the capacity of the resources consulted for the number of premium passages, in deviation from Article 8 and for a certain period, the maximum proportion of 15% premium passengers lower it to another number. This lower share is communicated account

Holding with a consultation period of 4 weeks and then applies to all airlines.
Monitoring and enforcement
11. Schiphol will monitor the amount of premium passengers per airline and test against the maximum share of premium passengers that is permitted. If the number of premium passengers exceeds this maximum, Schiphol will address the relevant airline and request the number of passengers to reduce premium status.
12. To this end, the airline will submit a proposal to Schiphol and indicate how the reduction of this share will be achieved and when the airline may have implemented this. This proposal must be offered to and discussed with the Schiphol Account Manager before the start of the new timetable.
13. If the airline also lets a too high proportion of premium passengers use the "priority passage" in the following periodic measurement, then Schiphol reserves the right, whether or not, all premium passengers of the….
Sounds to me like it would be possible for an airline at AMS to get by for even months on end with exceeding 15% premium passengers, but that if AMS discovers it they may want a remedial action plan from the airline to try to get back to 15% or below.

No mention of a per user premium charge to the airline for each SkyPriority passenger?
