(3)Where—
(a)a loan is made to the trustees of the settlement by the settlor or the trustees of a settlement connected with the settlor, and
(b)the loan is on arm's length terms, but

(b)in the case of a loan made by the trustees of a settlement, only if any interest payable under the loan is payable at no more than the official rate.
