Working out value of variable remuneration
(2) For the purposes of this section, the value of variable remuneration of an accountable person that has been deferred is taken to be:
(a) if a written notice given under subsection (3) determines a way to work out that value--the value worked out in that way; or
(b) if paragraph (a) does not apply and the Regulator rules prescribe a way to work out that value--the value worked out in that way; or
(c) if paragraphs (a) and (b) do not apply--what would have been the value of that remuneration if it had instead been paid or transferred to the person at the start of the minimum deferral period for the variable remuneration.
(3) The Regulator may, by written notice given to an accountable entity or a significant related entity, determine the way to work out, for the purposes of this section, the value of variable remuneration of accountable persons of the accountable entity or significant related entity.

(5) If:
(a) after a determination is made under subsection (3), a person becomes an accountable person of the accountable entity or significant related entity; and
(b) the determination covers the person;
