a profit on the sale of the holding (to anyone other than company B) would be taken into account in calculating company A's profits in respect of relevant insurance business, and
(d)
either—
(i)
the holding amounts to, or is an ingredient in a holding amounting to, 10% of all holdings of the same class in company B, or
(ii)
the period between the acquisition by company A of the holding and that company first taking steps to dispose of the holding does not exceed 30 days.
