(a) a potential successor, or
(b) if there are two or more potential successors, all of the potential successors who wish to be included in the transfer.
If there is a sole contract-holder a potential successor is a person who, under section 74, would be qualified to succeed the contract-holder if the contract-holder died immediately before the transfer.
If there are joint contract-holders a potential successor is a person who, under section 74, would be qualified to succeed a joint contract-holder if—
(a) the joint contract-holder died immediately before the transfer, and
(b) when the joint contract-holder died he or she was the sole contract-holder.
