(c)each of the investors (that is to say, the qualifying investor or investors and the other investors) has lent money to the joint venture company,
(d)the amounts each of the investors has lent stand in the same, or substantially the same, proportion as the shares in the joint venture company that each of them has,
(e)at all times in the accounting period the investors have the same rights in relation to the shares in or assets of the joint venture company and the same rights in relation to the money debt or debts in question, and
(f)the joint venture company makes an election for the purposes of this section that has effect for the accounting period (but see section 445 for further provision about elections).
(2)Section 401 has effect as if the qualifying investor or investors were not investors in the group for times in the accounting period falling in the relevant period of account.
(3)Section 427 has effect as if, in determining the appropriate proportion in relation to an associated worldwide group, it is assumed that the qualifying investor or investors were not investors in the group for times in the accounting period falling in the relevant period of account.
(4)In consequence of subsection (2) or (3), the shares of the qualifying investor or investors in the group are treated as distributed for times in the accounting period falling in the relevant period of account among the other investors in proportion to the actual shares of the other investors in the group.
(5)For the purposes of section 438 there is a reduction in any amount that would otherwise qualify as an exempt amount in the accounting period where—
(a)the exemption operates by reference to creditors being within subsection (3) of that section, and
(b)the creditor in relation to the amount is not an investor.
(6)The amount qualifying as an exempt amount is to be reduced so that only the qualifying proportion of it qualifies.
(7)For the purposes of this section—

“the non-qualifying proportion” means the proportion of the shares that the other investors have in the joint venture company in the accounting period.
(8)The treatment mentioned in section 440(2) is to extend only to the qualifying proportion of the tax-interest income amounts in the accounting period.
