the loan to which the relevant loan amount relates (the “relevant loan”) is fully funded by another loan (the “corresponding loan”) made to C for that purpose and on substantially the same terms as the relevant loan; and
(c)
amounts arising to C in respect of the corresponding loan would, if section 438(2) applied to C, qualify as “exempt amounts” within the meaning of that subsection.

(b)

shares in, or debt issued by, a company that meets the test in section 433(5) for that period,
(c)
shares in or debt issued by a company that is treated as meeting the public infrastructure assets test for that period by reason of this subsection.
(5)
For the purposes of determining whether amounts arising to C would qualify as exempt amounts under section 438(2) (for the purposes of subsection (2)(c) of this section), the recourse of a creditor is treated as being limited to relevant infrastructure matters if, in the event that C fails to perform its obligations in question, the recourse of the creditor is limited to—
(a)
anything listed in paragraphs (a) to (c) of section 438(4),
(b)
shares in or debt issued by a company whose income and assets consist wholly of income and assets within those paragraphs,
(c)
shares in or debt issued by a company whose income and assets consist wholly of income and assets within paragraphs (a) or (b) of this subsection, or
(d)
shares in or debt issued by a company whose income and assets consists wholly of income and assets within paragraphs (a) to (c) of this subsection, and so on.
(6)
For the purposes of subsection (5), in determining whether a company’s income and assets consists wholly of income and assets of a particular description, any source of income or any asset is ignored if, having regard to all the circumstances, it is reasonable to regard as insignificant the amount of income arising from the source, or (as the case may be) the value of the asset recognised, in the accounting period.”
