(1)The seller's interest as a shareholder is not taken to be substantially reduced for the purposes of section 1037(1) if—

(b)that share expressed as a fraction of the total of those profits is more than 75% of the corresponding fraction immediately before the purchase.
(2)In determining for the purposes of subsection (1) the division of profits among the persons entitled to them, a person entitled to periodic distributions calculated by reference to fixed rates or amounts is regarded as entitled to a distribution of the amount, or maximum amount, to which the person would be entitled for a year.

(a)on the purchase, and
(b)on any redemption, repayment or purchase of other shares of the company taking place at the same time,
