the partnership does not withdraw that notice.
Condition 2 is that all of the partnership’s outstanding syndicate capacity is disposed of by the partnership under a conversion arrangement to a successor company (the “syndicate capacity disposal”) with effect from the beginning of the underwriting year next following the partnership’s last underwriting year.
Condition 3 is that, immediately before the syndicate capacity disposal,—
the converting partners together control the successor company, and
the ordinary share capital of the successor company is beneficially owned by the converting partners in the same, or as nearly as may be the same, proportions as those in which pursuant to the partnership agreement the converting partners are at that time treated as having interests in the partnership’s syndicate capacity.
For the purposes of sub-paragraph (4)(b), ignore any interest of a person other than a converting partner in the partnership’s syndicate capacity.
Condition 4 is that the syndicate capacity disposal is made in consideration solely of the issue to the converting partners of shares in the successor company.

In this paragraph “outstanding syndicate capacity”, in relation to a partnership, means the syndicate capacity of the partnership other than any which—
the partnership disposes of to a person other than a successor member at or before the end of the partnership’s last underwriting year, or
ceases to exist with effect from the end of that year.
