Variable Interest Entities
• a private company lessee (the reporting entity) to elect an alternative not to apply VIE guidance to a lessor entity if – (a) the private company lessee and the lessor entity are under
common control, – (b) the private company lessee has a lease arrangement with the
lessor entity, – (c) substantially all of the activities between the private company
lessee and the lessor entity are related to leasing activities (including supporting leasing activities) between those two entities, and
– (d) if the private company lessee explicitly guarantees or provides collateral for any obligation of the lessor entity related to the asset leased by the private company,
