| (1) |  | As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Group recognized a provision in the amount of Ps.594,254 and Ps.614,388, respectively, associated with a consulting arrangement entered into by the Group, UHI and an entity controlled by the chairman of the Board of Directors of UHI, by which upon consummation of a qualified initial public offering of the shares of UHI or an alternative exit plan for the main current investors in UHI, the Group would pay the entity a portion of a defined appreciation in excess of certain preferred returns and performance thresholds of UHI. In March 2018, UHI announced that it has determined not to utilize the registration statement initially filed on July 2, 2015 for an initial public offering in the United States. Since the existing obligations contemplate other scenarios under which payment may be required, and such scenarios remain probable, the Company has maintained this payment reserved. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, receivables from UHI related primarily to the PLA amounted to Ps.748,844 and Ps.954,754, respectively.
