PT X is negotiating with PT Y to acquire 100% share capital of PT Z. PT Z is currently fully owned by PT Y and meets the business definition as defined in IFRS 3. Share sales must be approved by PT X shareholders and the government. Because the agreement takes time, before the time the share sale is completed, PT X and PT Y make an agreement that: • Both parties are committed to completing legally subject to the necessary agreements; • Determine the purchase price; • Determine that the following decisions and actions can be taken by PT Y only with PT X's approval until the sale of shares, through:      o Changes in the management of PT Z;      o Dividend payment; and,      o New project contracts that exceed USD 200 billion.
