160AUE  Series of dividends crossing over 1 July 2001
	(1)	This section deals with the situation in which:
	(a)	a company pays a number of class C franked dividends under a resolution made before 1 July 2001; and
	(b)	some of the dividends (the first series dividends) are paid before 1 July 2001; and
	(c)	some of the dividends (the second series dividends) are paid on or after 1 July 2001.
	(2)	For the purposes of this Part:
	(a)	the first series dividends and the second series dividends are to be taken to have been made under separate resolutions; and
	(b)	any declaration (the original declaration) made under section 160AQF or 160ASEL in relation to the dividends is taken to have effect only in relation to the first series dividends; and
	(c)	the consequences provided for in the following table occur if the company does not make a declaration under section 160AQF or 160ASEL in relation to the second series dividends before the reckoning day for the second series dividends:

Default declaration for second series dividends	
	If...	the company is taken to have declared that...	under...	
1	the first series dividends were class C franked	each dividend in the second series is a class C franked dividend to the extent of the same percentage as in the original declaration	subsection 160AQF(1AAA)	
2	the first series dividends were also franked with a venture capital franked amount	each dividend in the second series is a venture capital dividend to the extent of the same percentage as in the original declaration	section 160ASEL	
Note 1:	Paragraph (a) means that the 2 series of dividends will have separate reckoning days (see the definition of reckoning day in section 160APA). The reckoning day for the second series dividends will be the day on which the first of the second series dividends is paid. This in turn affects the calculation of the required franking amount for the second series dividends.
Note 2:	Paragraph (b) means that the company may make a fresh declaration under section 160AQF in relation to the second series dividends. The company may wish to do this to ensure that the second series dividends are franked to the new required franking amount that will need to be calculated under Division 4. It will also mean that the company may make a fresh declaration under section 160ASEL.
160AUF  Dividends paid under resolution made before 1 July 2001 but with a reckoning day after 1 July 2001
	(1)	This section deals with the situation in which:
	(a)	on or after 1 July 2001, a company pays a class C franked dividend or a number of class C franked dividends under a resolution made before 1 July 2001; and
	(b)	section 160AUE does not apply to the dividend or dividends.
	(2)	For the purposes of this Part:
	(a)	despite subsection 160AQF(2), the company may:
	(i)	vary any declaration it made under section 160AQF or 160ASEL in relation to the dividend or dividends; or
	(ii)	revoke any declaration it made under section 160AQF or 160ASEL in relation to the dividend or dividends and make a fresh declaration under that section in relation to the dividend or dividends;
		before the reckoning day for the dividend or dividends; and
	(b)	a declaration varied, or a fresh declaration made, under this section cannot itself be varied or revoked.

Operative provisions
126‑190  When there is a roll‑over
		There is a roll‑over if:
	(a)	an insurance company demutualises; and
	(b)	the trustee of a trust holds a *share issued under the demutualisation in trust for an entity to whom the share would have been issued if the entity could, and were in a position to, prove the entity’s entitlement to the share; and
	(c)	the trustee obtains a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑M of this Act (Scrip for scrip roll‑over) for the share because the trustee exchanges the share for a share (the replacement share) in another company (whether or not the trustee receives something in addition to the replacement share); and
	(d)	a *CGT event happens in relation to the replacement share because the entity becomes absolutely entitled to the share as against the trustee.
126‑195  Consequences of roll‑over
	(1)	A *capital gain or *capital loss the trustee makes from the *CGT event is disregarded.
	(2)	The first element of the *cost base of the replacement share for the entity is the cost base of the replacement share in the hands of the trustee just before the *CGT event happened. The first element of the *reduced cost base of the replacement share for the entity is worked out similarly.
Example:	The JB mutual insurance company demutualises, issuing shares in JB Limited to its policyholders. It is unable to locate some of its policyholders so it establishes a trust and issues shares to the trustee on behalf of those policyholders. Steve is one of those policyholders (being potentially entitled to 50 shares).
	JB Limited is taken over by PVDM Limited. Members of JB are issued with 2 shares in PVDM for each share they have in JB. The trustee obtains a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑M for the exchange. Each PVDM share held by the trustee has a cost base and reduced cost base of $15.
	Steve writes to the trustee and proves his entitlement to the shares held in trust for him.
	There is a roll‑over under this Subdivision so that any capital gain or loss made by the trustee is disregarded. The first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of each of Steve’s PVDM shares is $15.
