3. Any proceeds from the divestment of assets, entities or business lines envisaged by the business reorganisation plan shall be calculated prudently and with reference either to a reliable benchmark or valuation, such as an expert valuation, a market sounding exercise or the value of similar business lines or entities. The calculation shall take into account the likelihood of loss realisation.
4. For the parts of the institution or entity referred to in points (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) of Directive 2014/59/EU that will not be wound down or sold, the business reorganisation plan shall indicate ways to remedy any shortcomings in their operation or performance that may have an impact on their long-term viability, even if these shortcomings are not directly related to the failure of that institution or entity.
5. The measures set out in the business reorganisation plan shall take into account the strengths and weaknesses of the institution or entity referred to in points (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) of Directive 2014/59/EU and its reorganised business model by reference to the economic and market environment in which it operates.

The reorganisation strategy may include measures previously identified in the recovery plan or in the resolution plan, provided the resolution plan is accessible to the institution or entity referred to in points (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) of Directive 2014/59/EU and when such measures remain valid following resolution. This option does not imply any obligation on the resolution authority to share the resolution plan with the management body or with the person or persons appointed in accordance with Article 72(1) of Directive 2014/59/EU.
