(a)the regulated transaction was entered into by a permitted participant during the referendum period,
(b)the permitted participant is a registered party that is not a minor party,
(c)one of the other parties to the regulated transaction is an authorised participant in relation to the transaction by virtue of paragraph 10 of this Schedule, and

(a)require that any amount owed as a result of the variation be repaid (and that no further sums be advanced under the terms of the variation);
(b)where any additional security is provided under the terms of the variation, require that security to be discharged.
(5)In this paragraph—
(a)“authorised participant” means an authorised participant for the purposes of Part 4A of the 2000 Act;
(b)“regulated transaction” and references to the value of a regulated transaction have the same meaning as in Part 4A of the 2000 Act (see sections 71F and 71G of that Act).
