• (8) In determining the amount (if any) of ACT which may be repayable—

• (a) under section 17(3) of the Oil Taxation Act 1975, or

• (b) under section 127(5) of the Finance Act 1981,

• (a) as a result of a surrender by one of the consortium members, the consortium company is treated as paying an amount of surrendered ACT which exceeds the limit applicable under subsection (2) of section 85 of the Finance Act 1972 (as modified by subsection (4) above), and

• (b) that excess falls to be treated under subsection (4) of that section as advance corporation tax paid by the consortium company in respect of distributions made in a later accounting period,

then, for the purposes of the application of subsection (2) of that section (as modified by subsection (4) above) in relation to that later accounting period, the excess of the surrendered ACT shall be treated as resulting from a surrender by that one of the consortium members referred to in paragraph (a) above.

• (3) At the end of the said section 16 there shall be added the following subsections—

(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) to (2B) above, shares in a company are redeemable preference shares either if they are so described in the terms of their issue or if, however they are described, they fulfil the condition in paragraph (a) below and either or both of the conditions in paragraphs (b) and (c) below— (a) that, as against other shares in the company, they carry a preferential entitlement to a dividend or to any assets in a winding up or both; (b) that, by virtue of the terms of their issue, the exercise of a right by any person or the existence of any arrangements, they are liable to be redeemed, cancelled or repaid, in whole or in part; (c) that, by virtue of any material arrangements, the holder has a right to require another person to acquire the shares or is obliged in any circumstances to dispose of them or another person has a right or is in any circumstances obliged to acquire them.
