(b)discharged the requirement when the dividend or interest was paid.

(3)But the borrower is not entitled (whether as a result of the rules about manufactured payments or otherwise) to an income deduction in respect of the deemed requirement to pay or the deemed payment.

(b)an amount of money (“cash collateral”) is payable to or for the benefit of the lender for the purpose of securing the discharge of the requirement to transfer the relevant securities back to the lender,

(c)the stock lending arrangement is designed to produce a return to the borrower which equates, in substance, to the return on an investment of money at interest, and

(5)The rate of interest payable in respect of the cash collateral is a rate that is reasonably comparable to the rate that the borrower could obtain by placing the cash collateral on deposit for the interest period.

(6)For the purposes of this section, the amount of the cash collateral on which the interest is payable is taken to be—

(a)in any case where the amount of the cash collateral varies at any time on or before the return date, the highest amount of the cash collateral at any time on or before the return date, and

(b)in any other case, the amount of the cash collateral as at the return date.
