any money or money's worth paid in respect of a creditor's rights falling within paragraph 3(a);
any property directly or indirectly representing property within paragraph (a) or (b).
If and to the extent that this paragraph applies to any property—
for the two-year period it is not excluded property by virtue of section 6(1), (1A) or (2) F2, section 48(4) or section 48ZA, and
if it is held in a qualifying foreign currency account within the meaning of section 157 (non-residents' bank accounts), that section does not apply to it for the two-year period.

the disposal referred to in sub-paragraph (1)(a), or
the payment referred to in sub-paragraph (1)(b).
The value of any property within sub-paragraph (1)(c) is to be treated as not exceeding the relevant amount.
The relevant amount is—
where the property within sub-paragraph (1)(c) directly or indirectly represents property within sub-paragraph (1)(a) (“the consideration”), the value of the consideration at the time of the disposal referred to in that sub-paragraph, and
