Under the terms of the Partnership Agreement, only the unit value of the accumulated/redeemed mile is known to the parties, but the volume of accumulation or redemption is variable and the total amount to be paid by one party to the other will depend on the calculation at the end of each month. In other words, there is no pre-determined global value linked to this transaction. Analyzing the balances from January 2024 to August 2024, an amount of R$76,980,695.39 was recorded, owed by Pagol to GLA; and computing the transactions for 2023, an amount of R$148,223,379.15 was recorded, owed by Pagol to GLA.

(iii)     a detailed description of the measures taken and procedures adopted to ensure the commutativity of the operation The Company reiterates that the Partnership Agreement was signed with Pagol under terms and conditions aligned with those practiced with independent third parties, in order to ensure that it was negotiated in a commutative manner and providing for adequate compensatory payment in view of similar transactions concluded by GLA with other players.
