(5)Subsection (6) applies if, on its acquisition, sum or asset T is the subject of a relevant step within section 554B taken by P.

(6)Chapter 2 does not apply by reason of the relevant step if—

(a)before the acquisition, sum or asset S was the subject of a relevant step within section 554B taken by P,

(ii)if sub-paragraph (i) does not apply, is held by or on behalf of P on the same basis as that on which sum or asset S was held by or on behalf of P immediately before the acquisition, and
