  (a)   after 16   May 2002 and before the transitional group came into existence, a CGT event happened in relation to an asset (the roll - over asset ) for which there was:

  (i)   a roll - over under Subdivision   126 - B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ; or

  (ii)   roll - over relief under section   40 - 340 of that Act in a case covered by item   4 of the table in subsection   (1) of that section; and

  (b)   the cost base or reduced cost base of the roll - over asset or any other asset that:

  (i)   became an asset of the head company when the transitional group came into existence because subsection   701 - 1(1) (the single entity rule) of that Act applies; or

  (ii)   was otherwise an asset of the head company at that time;

    differs at that time from what it would have been if the act, transaction or event that gave rise to the CGT event had not occurred in relation to the roll - over asset;

then the provisions mentioned in subsection   (2) apply as if the act, transaction or event had not occurred in relation to the roll - over asset.

  (i)   the originating company in relation to the roll - over, or the transferor in relation to the roll - over relief;

  (ii)   the recipient company, or the transferee in relation to the roll - over relief; and

  (c)   when the transitional group came into existence, at least one of those entities was not a member of that group.
