(5)Case 1 is where—
(a)immediately before the relevant time, the lease is one that falls (or would fall) to be treated in the relevant accounts in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice as a finance lease for accounting purposes, and
(b)at the relevant time the lease becomes one that falls (or would fall) to be treated in the relevant accounts in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice as not being a finance lease for accounting purposes.

(7)The Treasury may by regulations make provision for or in connection with restricting the application or operation of this section.
(8)In this section, any reference to a finance lease includes a reference to a loan.
(9)In the application of this section in relation to any person, the “relevant accounts” are the accounts—
(a)of that person, or
(b)where that person is the lessor, of any person connected with that person,
but only to the extent that the treatment of the lease in those accounts as a finance lease or otherwise falls (or would fall) to be determined by reference to that person as the lessor or lessee under the lease.
(10)Subsections (2) and (3) of section 70N (finance lease test: group accounts, and generally accepted accounting practice for persons outside the charge to tax) also apply for the purposes of this section.
(1)This section applies in any case where—
(a)a person is lessor or lessee under a long funding operating lease (the “existing lease”),
(b)an event occurs which has the effect of extending the term of the lease (whether by variation of the provisions of the lease, the grant or exercise of an option or in any other way), and
(c)the event is not one by reason of which, within the meaning of section 70YA, the accountancy classification of the lease as an operating lease changes in the relevant accounts.
(2)For this purpose an event has the effect of extending the term of the lease if it meets any of the following conditions—
(a)it has the effect of making a further period a non-cancellable period;
(b)it is the grant of an option to the lessee to continue to lease the plant or machinery for a further period, where it is reasonably certain at the time the option is granted that the lessee will exercise it;
(c)it is the exercise by the lessee of an option to continue to lease the plant or machinery for a further period;
(d)it does not fall within the preceding paragraphs, but it has the effect that the lessee will continue, or is reasonably certain to continue, to lease the plant or machinery for a further period.
For this purpose “further period” means a period falling wholly or partly after the end of the pre-existing term.
(3)The person is to be treated as if—
(a)the existing lease terminated at the end of the day before the effective date,
(b)another lease (the “new lease”) were entered into on the effective date, and
(c)the term of the new lease were the unexpired portion of the term of the existing lease, as extended.
(4)The person is also to be treated as if the effective date were the date of both—
(a)the inception of the new lease, and
(b)the commencement of the term of the new lease.
(5)The new lease is to be taken to be a long funding operating lease.
(6)For the purposes of this section the “effective date” is the earlier of—
(a)the day after the end of the pre-existing term of the existing lease;
(b)if the rentals payable are varied as a result of or otherwise in connection with the event, the date on which the variation takes effect.
(7)In this section—
“non-cancellable period” has the same meaning as in section 70YF (the “term” of a lease);
“pre-existing term”, in relation to a lease, means the term of the lease apart from the extension in question.
(1)This section applies where—
(a)a person is lessor under a plant or machinery lease (the “existing lease”) that is not a long funding lease, and
(b)an event occurs which has the effect of extending the term of the lease (whether by variation of the provisions of the lease, the grant or exercise of an option or in any other way).
(2)Subsection (2) of section 70YB (events having the effect of extending the term of a lease) also has effect for the purposes of this section.
(3)Make the following assumptions—
(a)the existing lease terminates immediately before the effective date,
(b)another lease (the “new lease”) is entered into on the effective date,
(c)the term of the new lease is the portion of the term of the existing lease, as extended, that remains unexpired as at the effective date;
(d)the effective date is the date of both—
(i)the inception of the new lease, and
(ii)the commencement of the term of the new lease.
(4)If, on those assumptions, the new lease would be a long funding lease, the person is to be treated on those assumptions.
(5)If subsection (4) does not apply, then, for the purposes of any subsequent application of this section or section 70YD in the case of the existing lease, the term of the existing lease is to be taken to be the term as extended (or further extended).
(6)For the purposes of this section the “effective date” is the earlier of—
(a)the day after the end of the pre-existing term of the existing lease;
(b)if the rentals payable are varied as a result of or otherwise in connection with the event, the date on which the variation takes effect.
(7)In this section “pre-existing term”, in relation to a lease, means the term of the lease apart from the extension in question.
(1)This section applies where—
(a)a person is lessor under a lease (the “existing lease”) that is not a long funding lease,
(b)the person enters into an arrangement which meets, or arrangements which (taken together) meet, the conditions in subsection (2).
(2)The conditions are that—
(a)as a result of the arrangement or arrangements, there is an increase, after the inception of the lease, in the proportion of the residual amount that is guaranteed as mentioned in section 70YE(1)(b), and
(b)had the arrangement or arrangements been entered into before the inception of the lease, the lease would have been a long funding lease.
(3)The person is to be treated as if—
(a)the existing lease had terminated immediately before the time of the relevant transaction,
(b)another lease (the “new lease”) had been entered into immediately after the time of the relevant transaction,
(c)the term of the new lease were the portion of the term of the existing lease that remains unexpired as at the date of the relevant transaction;
(d)the date of the relevant transaction were the date of both—
(i)the inception of the new lease, and
(ii)the commencement of the term of the new lease.
(4)For the purposes of this section, the “relevant transaction” is the arrangement or, where two or more arrangements have been entered into, the latest of them.
(5)The Treasury may by regulations make provision for or in connection with restricting the application or operation of this section.]
