An acquisition by a person of an interest in a landholder is an exempt acquisition—
(a) if the means by which the person acquired the interest would have resulted in no ad valorem duty being payable under Chapter 2 had the subject of the acquisition been a transfer of the land of the landholder to the person; or
(b) if the interest was acquired in the person's capacity as—
(i) a receiver or trustee in bankruptcy; or
(ii) a liquidator; or
(iii) an executor or administrator of the estate of a deceased person; or
(c) if the interest was acquired solely as the result of the making of a compromise or arrangement with the landholder's creditors under Part 5.1 of the Corporations Act that has been approved by the court, not being a compromise or arrangement that the Commissioner is satisfied was made with the intention of defeating the operation of this Part; or
(d) if the interest concerned is acquired solely from a pro rata increase in the interests of all unit holders or shareholders.
