  (a)   if the head company of the old group is the same entity as the head company of the new group--that entity in its role as head company of the new group; or

  (b)   otherwise--the head company of the new group (just as if the head company of the new group had been the head company of the old group at all times before the conversion time).

  (2)   To avoid doubt, subsection   (1) also covers everything that, immediately before the conversion time, was taken to have happened in relation to the * head company of the old group because of:

  (e)   one or more previous applications of this Division.

  (3)   Subsections   (1) and (2) have effect:

  (a)   for the * head company core purposes in relation to an income year ending after the conversion time; and

  (b)   for the entity core purposes in relation to an income year ending after the conversion time; and

  (c)   for the purposes of determining the balance of the * franking account of the head company of the new group at and after the conversion time.

  (4)   Subsections   (1) and (2) have effect subject to:

  (a)   section   701 - 40 (Exit history rule); and

  (b)   a provision of this Act to which section   701 - 40 is subject because of section   701 - 85 (about exceptions to the core rules in Division   701).
