  1. (a)

     it is not a standard member of the group, or

     it is not located in the territory.

• Step 10

  1. (a)

     the result of Step 8, by

  2. (b)

     the amount given by dividing—

     1. (i)

        the net gains of the current gain member from the disposal of local tangible assets in the election period, by

        the sum of net gains from the disposal of local tangible assets in the election period of all current gain members in the adjustment period.

• Step 11

     the amount given by dividing 1 by the number of standard members of the group in the territory in that accounting period.

• Step 12

  Where there are no standard members of the group in the territory in one or more accounting periods in the look-back period, further adjust the underlying profits for the election period of each current gain member by adding the amount given by multiplying—

     the result of Step 8 multiplied by the number of accounting periods in the look-back period in which no standard members of the group were located in the territory, by

  2. (b)

     the amount given by dividing—

     1. (i)

        the net gains of the current gain member from the disposal of local tangible assets in the election period, by
