The deal is well underway. There are still details to be worked out but in the next few days we'll be looking at having a decisive meeting. 

I don't speak of percentages but I will say, however, that there is a desire to close the deal.

We'll see. We'll wait before that the deal is closed, but I can say that the formula will not be that of the loan with the right of redemption.
