A Correct answer
Explanation

The COND parameter tests if a condition is TRUE to SKIP the step. COND=(8,LE) means 'if return code is less than or equal to 8, skip this step'. So the step runs ONLY when return code is strictly less than 8 (NOT less than or equal to 8). This is the correct conditional logic for the stated requirement.
