(1)Subsection (1) of section 94 above shall not apply in relation to a person who is a participator in his capacity as trustee of a settlement, but—

(a)if a qualifying interest in possession subsists in the settled property, a part of that interest corresponding to such part of the property as is of a value equal to the part so apportioned less the amount specified in subsection (3) below shall be treated for the purposes of Chapter II of Part III of this Act as having come to an end on the making of the transfer, and
(b)if no qualifying interest in possession subsists in the settled property, Chapter III of Part III of this Act shall have effect as if on the making of the transfer the trustee had made a disposition as a result of which the value of the settled property had been reduced by an amount equal to the part so apportioned less the amount specified in subsection (3) below;

(3)The amount referred to in paragraphs (a) and (b) of subsection (2) above is the amount (if any) by which the value of the settled property is more than it would be apart from the company’s transfer, leaving out of account the value of any rights or interests in the company.

(b)the disposition would, if the trustee were beneficially entitled to the settled property, be a transfer of value made by him, and
(c)at the time of the alteration an individual is beneficially entitled to an interest in possession in the whole or part of so much of the settled property as consists of [F1unquoted shares in or unquoted securities of the close company].
(2)Where this section applies, such part of the individual’s interest shall be treated for the purposes of Chapter II of Part III of this Act as having come to an end at the time of the alteration as corresponds to the relevant decrease of the value of the property in which the interest subsists, that is to say the decrease caused by the alteration.
