(d)in relation to any qualifying contract, a payment falling within section 151 above.
(2)In this Chapter “qualifying payment” includes, in relation to a qualifying contract—
(a)a payment which, if it were a payment under the contract, would be a payment falling within section 151 above; and
(b)a payment for securing the acquisition or disposal of the contract.
(3)Where a qualifying company closes out a qualifying contract which is an interest rate or currency contract by entering into another contract with obligations which are reciprocal to those of the qualifying contract—
(a)any payment received by the company in consideration of its entering into the reciprocal contract, or paid by the company in consideration of another person’s entering into that contract, is for the purposes of this Chapter a qualifying payment in relation to the qualifying contract; and
(b)all other payments under the reciprocal contract, and all subsequent payments under the qualifying contract, shall be ignored for all purposes of the Tax Acts.
(4)Subsection (5) below applies where, in the case of a qualifying contract which is a currency contract, there is a difference between—

(b)the local currency equivalent, at that time, of the amount of the second currency (the second currency equivalent).
(5)The amount of the difference shall be treated for the purposes of this Chapter—
(a)where the first currency equivalent exceeds the second currency equivalent, as a qualifying payment received by the qualifying company at the time specified in the contract for the purposes of section 150(2) above, and
(b)where the first currency equivalent is less than the second currency equivalent, as a qualifying payment made by the qualifying company at that time.
