The first corporation holds
"voting control" over the other corporation if the first corporation has the
ability to cast, or control the casting of, at least 90% of the maximum number
of votes that may be cast at a general meeting of that corporation (other than

is taken, for the
purposes of a corporate reconstruction transaction, to be a transaction
between the corporations as members of the same group.
