	(c)	if the entitlement is in respect of an interest in a self managed superannuation fund — the value of the interest at the termination time, determined by the method that the court would consider appropriate if it were determining the value of the interest under paragraph 90MT (2) (b) of the Act, multiplied by the specified percentage, less the amount of any fees payable by the non-member spouse under regulation 59.

the base amount allocated to the non-member spouse in relation to the interest must be adjusted by the trustee of the eligible superannuation plan in which the interest is held for each adjustment period applicable to the interest under this Division.
	(2)	After each applicable adjustment period, the trustee must, if necessary, adjust the base amount in accordance with the rate of interest that applied to the superannuation interest in that adjustment period under regulation 45D.
Note   Depending on the rate of interest that applied to the superannuation interest in an adjustment period, the base amount may be adjusted by a positive amount or a negative amount or, if the rate was nil, not adjusted.
	(3)	For this regulation, a superannuation interest is in the growth phase if:
	(a)	in the case of an interest that is identified in a superannuation agreement or flag lifting agreement — the interest was in the growth phase at the date when the agreement was served on the trustee under section 90MI of the Act; and
	(b)	in the case of an interest in relation to which a splitting order applies — the interest was in the growth phase at the date of the order.
45B	Applicable adjustment periods — superannuation interests other than those to which regulation 45C applies
	(1)	If a superannuation interest is not an interest to which regulation 45C applies, the applicable adjustment periods for the interest are:
	(a)	if a splittable payment becomes payable, or a terminating action occurs, in respect of the interest before the end of the first year — the period beginning at the operative time and ending at the end of the day before the payment becomes payable or the terminating action occurs; and
	(b)	in any other case, the following periods:
	(i)	the period beginning at the operative time and ending at the end of the first year;
	(ii)	after the first year, each whole year (if any) ending before a splittable payment becomes payable, or a terminating action occurs, in respect of the interest;

first year means the year in which the operative time in relation to the relevant payment split occurs.
relevant condition of release has the same meaning as in Division 2.2.
terminating action, for a superannuation interest, means any of the following actions, in respect of the non-member spouse’s entitlement under a superannuation agreement, flag lifting agreement or splitting order, by the trustee of the plan in which the interest is held:
	(a)	the creation, under the governing rules of the plan, of a new interest in the plan for the non-member spouse;
	(b)	the transfer or rollover, under the governing rules of the plan, to another superannuation fund or an RSA of an amount to be held for the benefit of the non-member spouse;
	(c)	if the non-member spouse has satisfied a relevant condition of release — the payment of an amount to the non-member spouse.

	(b)	in any other case — a financial year.
45C	Applicable adjustment periods — whole of superannuation interest is accumulation interest
	(1)	If the whole of a superannuation interest is an accumulation interest in a regulated superannuation fund (other than a self managed superannuation fund), an approved deposit fund or an RSA, the applicable adjustment periods for the interest are:
	(a)	if a splittable payment becomes payable, or a terminating action occurs, in respect of the interest before the end of the first allotment period — the period beginning at the operative time and ending at the end of the period for which the plan would allot net earnings to the member spouse if he or she voluntarily ceased to be a member of the plan on the day when the splittable payment becomes payable or the terminating action occurs; and
	(b)	in any other case, the following periods:
	(i)	the period beginning at the operative time and ending at the end of the first allotment period;
	(ii)	after the first allotment period, each whole allotment period (if any) ending before a splittable payment becomes payable, or a terminating action occurs, in respect of the interest;
	(iii)	in the allotment period in which a splittable payment becomes payable, or a terminating action occurs, in respect of the interest — the period beginning at the beginning of that allotment period and ending at the end of the period for which the plan would allot net earnings to the member spouse if he or she voluntarily ceased to be a member of the plan on the day when the splittable payment becomes payable or the terminating action occurs.

45D	Interest rates for adjustment of base amount
	(1)	The rate of interest that applies to a superannuation interest in an adjustment period is the interest rate that applies to the interest for the adjustment period under this regulation.
	(2)	If the whole of the superannuation interest is an accumulation interest (other than an interest in a self managed superannuation fund), the interest rate for the adjustment period is:
	(a)	for an interest in a regulated superannuation fund, an approved deposit fund or an RSA:
	(i)	the rate of any allotment (being the allotment of a positive amount, a nil amount or a negative amount) to the member spouse of net earnings of the eligible superannuation plan for the adjustment period; or
	(ii)	if there has been no such allotment to the member spouse for the adjustment period, the rate at which net earnings of the plan would be allotted to the member spouse if he or she voluntarily ceased to be a member of the plan on the day when the relevant splittable payment becomes payable or the terminating action, within the meaning given by subregulation 45C (2), occurs; and

	(a)	the whole, or any component, of the superannuation interest is a defined benefit interest, or the superannuation interest is in a self managed superannuation fund; and
	(b)	the adjustment period is exactly 12 months;
the interest rate for the adjustment period is the rate calculated by the Australian Government Actuary, and published in the Gazette, being a rate calculated by reference to a rate that is 2.5 percentage points above the percentage change in the original estimate of full‑time adult ordinary time earnings for all persons in Australia, as published by the Australian Bureau of Statistics for the quarter ending immediately before the rate is calculated. 
	(4)	If:
	(a)	the whole, or any component, of the superannuation interest is a defined benefit interest, or the superannuation interest is in a self managed superannuation fund; and
	(b)	the adjustment period is less than 12 months;
the interest rate for the adjustment period is the rate calculated in accordance with a method determined by the Australian Government Actuary, and published in the Gazette, being a method that provides for calculation of a rate by reference to a rate that is 2.5 percentage points above the percentage change in the original estimate of full‑time adult ordinary time earnings for all persons in Australia, as published by the Australian Bureau of Statistics for the quarter ending immediately before the notice is published.
