(2)In the allowance period and any subsequent accounting period, no relief is available to the leasing company as mentioned in subsection (1)(e) except against profits (if any) arising under the leasing contract.
(3)Arrangements are within this subsection if, as a result of them, a successor company will be able to carry on, at some time during or after the allowance period, any part of the leasing company's trade which includes the performance of all or any of the obligations which (apart from the arrangements) would be the leasing company's obligations under the leasing contract.
