(a) is a limited interest in a capital sum equal to the value of the property, | ||
(b) commences on that date, and | ||
(c) is to continue for the unexpired balance of the term of the first-mentioned interest. | ||
(2) For the purposes of subsection (1)(a), “value” means such amount as would be the incumbrance-free value, within the meaning of section 28 (1), if the limited interest were taken, at the date referred to in subsection (1), as a taxable gift or taxable inheritance. | ||
