(a)a debtor relationship of a close company [F2 (“the issuing company”)] is represented by a [F3deeply] discounted security issued by the company; F4...
F5(aa). . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
[F6(b)at any time in that period there is a person who stands in the position of a creditor as respects that security and who at that time is—]
(i) a participator in the company [F7or a person who controls a company which is such a participator];
(ii)an associate of [F8a person who is, or who controls a company which is,] such a participator; or
[F9(iii)a company controlled by such a participator or by a person who controls a company which is such a participator.] F10...
F11(c). . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
[F12(1ZA)But for any such accounting period this paragraph shall not apply in relation to that debtor relationship if any of the following exceptions applies.]
[F13(1A)[F14The first exception applies where—]
(a)at all times in the period when there is such a person as is described in sub-paragraph (1)(b) above, that person is a company; and
(b)credits representing the full amount of the discount that is referable to the period are brought into account for the purposes of this Chapter in respect of the corresponding creditor relationship.]
[F15(1B)The second exception applies where—
(a)the issuing company is a CIS-based close company;
(b)at all times in the period when there is such a person as is described in sub-paragraph (1)(b) above, that person is not resident in a non-qualifying territory; and
(c)the issuing company is a small or medium-sized enterprise for the period.
(1C)The third exception applies where—
(a)the debt is one that is owed to, or to persons acting for, a CIS limited partnership;

(c)the debtor company has received written notice from the partnership containing information from which it appears that the condition in paragraph (b) above is satisfied; and
(d)the issuing company is a small or medium-sized enterprise for the period.]
[F16(2)The debits falling in the case of the issuing company to be brought into account for the purposes of this Chapter in respect of the loan relationship shall be adjusted so that every debit relating to the amount of the discount that is referable to the relevant period (“the relevant debits”) is brought into account for the accounting period in which the security is redeemed, instead of for the relevant period.
This sub-paragraph does not apply where the relevant period is the accounting period in which the security is redeemed.
(2A)Where at some (but not all) times in the relevant period there is such a person as is described in sub-paragraph (1)(b) above—
(a)part only of the relevant debits shall be brought into account in accordance with sub-paragraph (2) above; and
(b)that part is the part which bears to the whole of the relevant debits the proportion which the part of the relevant period for which there is such a person bears to the whole of that period.]
[F17(2B)References in this paragraph to the amount of the discount that is referable to an accounting period are references to the amount relating to the difference between—
(a)the issue price of the security, and
(b)the amount payable on redemption,
which (apart from sub-paragraphs (2) and (2A) above) would for that accounting period be brought into account for the purposes of this Chapter in the case of the issuing company.]
[F18(2C)Any reference in this paragraph to a person who stands in the position of a creditor as respects a [F19deeply] discounted security [F20includes a reference to a person who indirectly stands in that position by reference to a series of loan relationships or money debts which would be loan relationships if a company directly stood in the position of creditor or debtor].
(2D)Where this paragraph applies by virtue of sub-paragraph (2C) above, the reference to the corresponding creditor relationship in sub-paragraph (1A)(c) above is a reference to the creditor relationship of the person who indirectly stands in the position of a creditor as respects the [F21deeply] discounted security.]
[F22(3)In this paragraph “deeply discounted security” has the same meaning as in Chapter 8 of Part 4 of the Income Tax (Trading and Other Income) Act 2005 (see section 430); and the provisions of that Chapter shall apply for the purposes of this paragraph for determining the difference between the issue price of a security and the amount payable on redemption as they apply for the purposes of section 430 of that Act.]
F23[F24(3A). . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
(3B)In this paragraph “control”, in relation to a company, has the same meaning as in section 87 of this Act (see section 87A).]

[F26“resident” has the meaning given by paragraph 5B(6) of Schedule 28AA to that Act;]
[F26“small or medium-sized enterprise” has the meaning given by paragraph 5D of that Schedule.]
