(b)the fund makes a distribution for a period which begins before the date of his acquisition of that interest;
the amount of that distribution which is paid to him (assuming him still to retain that interest) will include a payment of capital which is debited to an account maintained under the arrangements (“the equalisation account”) and which is determined by reference to the income which had accrued to the fund at the date of his acquisition.

(a)his acquisition is by way of subscription for or allotment of new shares, units or other interests issued or created by the fund; or

(b)throughout so much of that period as precedes the disposal, the income of the offshore fund concerned has been of such a nature as is referred to in paragraph 3(1) of Schedule 27.
(5)An event which, apart from section [F10127 of the 1992] Act (reorganisations etc.), would constitute a disposal of an asset shall constitute such a disposal for the purpose of determining whether, by virtue of subsection (3) above, there is a disposal to which this Chapter applies.
(6)The reference in subsection (5) above to section [F10127 of the 1992] Act includes a reference to that section as applied by [F11any provision of Chapter 2 of Part 4 of that Act].

(2)Subject to the following provisions of this section, a person’s interest in [F15an offshore fund] is a material interest if, at the time when he acquired the interest, it could reasonably be expected that, at some time during the period of seven years beginning at the time of his acquisition, he would be able to realise the value of the interest (whether by transfer, surrender or in any other manner).
(3)For the purposes of subsection (2) above, a person is at any time able to realise the value of an interest if at that time he can realise an amount which is reasonably approximate to that portion which the interest represents (directly or indirectly) of the market value at that time of [F16the assets of the fund].
(4)For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3) above—
(a)a person is able to realise a particular amount if he is able to obtain that amount either in money or in the form of assets to the value of that amount; and
(b)if at any time an interest in an offshore fund has a market value which is substantially greater than the portion which the interest represents, as mentioned in subsection (3) above, of the market value at that time of the assets concerned, the ability to realise such a market value of the interest shall not be regarded as an ability to realise such an amount as is referred to in that subsection.
(5)An interest in [F17an offshore fund] is not a material interest if—

(b)it is a right arising under a policy of insurance.
(6)Shares in a company [F18that is not resident in the United Kingdom](an “overseas company”) do not constitute a material interest [F19in an offshore fund] if—
(a)the shares are held by a company and the holding of them is necessary or desirable for the maintenance and development of a trade carried on by the company or a company associated with it; and
(b)the shares confer at least 10 per cent. of the total voting rights in the overseas company and a right, in the event of a winding-up, to at least 10 per cent. of the assets of that company remaining after the discharge of all liabilities having priority over the shares; and
(c)not more than ten persons hold shares in the overseas company and all the shares in that company confer both voting rights and a right to participate in the assets on a winding-up; and
(d)at the time of its acquisition of the shares, the company had such a reasonable expectation as is referred to in subsection (2) above by reason only of the existence of—
(i)an arrangement under which, at some time within the period of seven years beginning at the time of acquisition, that company may require the other participators to purchase its shares; or
(ii)provisions of either an agreement between the participators or the constitution of the overseas company under which the company will be wound up within a period which is, or is reasonably expected to be, shorter than the period referred to in subsection (2) above; or
(iii)both such an arrangement and such provisions;
and in this paragraph “participators” means the persons holding shares falling within paragraph (c) above.
(7)For the purposes of subsection (6)(a) above, a company is associated with another company if one of them has control of the other within the meaning of section 416 or both of them are under the control, within the meaning of that section, of the same person or persons.
(8)An interest in a company [F18that is not resident in the United Kingdom] is not a material interest [F19in an offshore fund] at any time when the following conditions are satisfied, namely—
(a)that the holder of the interest has the right to have the company wound up; and
(b)that, in the event of a winding up, the holder is, by virtue of the interest and any other interest which he then holds in the same capacity, entitled to more than 50 per cent. of the assets remaining after the discharge of all liabilities having priority over the interest or interests concerned.
(9)The market value of any asset for the purposes of this Chapter shall be determined in like manner as it would be determined for the purposes of the [F201992] Act except that, in the case of an interest in an offshore fund for which there are separate published buying and selling prices, section [F20272(5)] of that Act (meaning of “market value” in relation to rights of unit holders in a unit trust scheme) shall apply with any necessary modifications for determining the market value of the interest for the purposes of this Chapter.

(6)A charity shall be exempt from tax in respect of an offshore income gain if the gain is applicable and applied for charitable purposes; but if property held on charitable trusts ceases to be subject to charitable trusts and that property represents directly or indirectly an offshore income gain, the trustees shall be treated as if they had disposed of and immediately reacquired that property for a consideration equal to its market value, any gain (calculated in accordance with Schedule 28) accruing being treated as an offshore income gain not accruing to a charity.

(a)a disposal to which this Chapter applies is a disposal of settled property, within the meaning of the [F301992] Act, and
(b)for the purposes of the [F301992] Act, the general administration of the trusts is ordinarily carried on outside the United Kingdom and the trustees or a majority of them for the time being are not resident or not ordinarily resident in the United Kingdom,

M8(1)The provisions of this section apply where a disposal to which this Chapter applies gives rise to an offshore income gain; and, if that disposal also constitutes the disposal of the interest concerned for the purposes of the [F411992] Act, then that disposal is in the following provisions of this section referred to as [F41the 1992 Act disposal].
(2)So far as relates to an offshore income gain which arises on a material disposal (within the meaning of Part I of Schedule 28), subsections (3) and (4) below shall have effect in relation to [F41the 1992 Act disposal] in substitution for section [F4137(1)] of that Act (deduction of consideration chargeable to tax on income).
(3)Subject to the following provisions of this section, in the [F41computation of the gain] accruing on [F41the 1992 Act disposal], a sum equal to the offshore income gain shall be deducted from the sum which would otherwise constitute the amount or value of the consideration for the disposal.

(5)If [F41the 1992 Act disposal] forms part of a transfer to which section [F41162] of that Act applies (roll-over relief on transfer of business in exchange wholly or partly for shares) then, for the purposes of subsection (4) of that section (determination of the amount of the deduction from the gain on the old assets) “B” in the fraction in that subsection (the value of the whole of the consideration received by the transferor in exchange for the business) shall be taken to be what it would be if the value of the consideration other than shares so received by the transferor were reduced by a sum equal to the offshore income gain.
(6)Where the disposal to which this Chapter applies constitutes such a disposal by virtue of [F42section 757(5) or (6)] or 758(5), the [F411992] Act shall have effect as if an amount equal to the offshore income gain to which the disposal gives rise were given (by the person making the exchange concerned) as consideration for the new holding, within the meaning of section [F41128] of that Act (consideration given or received for new holding on a reorganisation).
[F43(6A)Where the disposal to which this Chapter applies constitutes such a disposal by virtue of section 762A (exchange of interests of different classes), the 1992 Act shall have effect as if an amount equal to the offshore income gain to which that disposal gives rise were given (by the person making the exchange) as consideration for the new holding (within the meaning of section 128 of that Act (consideration given or received for new holding on a reorganisation)).]

then, for the purposes of the Tax Acts, the amount of the first distribution falling within paragraph (b) above shall be taken to be reduced or, as the case may be, extinguished by deducting therefrom an amount equal to the offshore income gain referred to in paragraph (c) above and, if that amount exceeds the amount of that first distribution, the balance shall be set against the second and, where necessary, any later distribution falling within paragraph (b) above, until the balance is exhausted.
