(a)the amount for the time being owed by the borrower to the lender, or

(b)the time at which the debt is to be wholly or partly repaid,

depends in any respect, directly or indirectly, on the amount or value the lender holds on behalf of or on account of the borrower as mentioned in subsection (3).

(5)If and to the extent that money lent is used to satisfy a debt, the debt for the money lent is to be treated as incurred for satisfying that other debt.

(6)In this section “lender” includes, in relation to any money lent, any person for the time being entitled to repayment.
