date), (ii) increased by the amount of OID previously accrued on the Foreign Curr<strong>en</strong>cy Conting<strong>en</strong>tNote (d<strong>is</strong>regarding any positive or negative adjustm<strong>en</strong>ts and translated into U.S. dollars using theexchange rate applicable to such OID) and (iii) <strong>de</strong>creased by the projected amount of all priorpaym<strong>en</strong>ts in respect of the Foreign Curr<strong>en</strong>cy Conting<strong>en</strong>t Note. The U.S. dollar amount of theprojected paym<strong>en</strong>ts <strong>de</strong>scribed in clause (iii) of the preceding s<strong>en</strong>t<strong>en</strong>ce <strong>is</strong> <strong>de</strong>termined by (x) firstallocating the paym<strong>en</strong>ts to the most rec<strong>en</strong>tly accrued OID to which prior amounts have not alreadybe<strong>en</strong> allocated and translating those amounts into U.S. dollars at the rate at which the OID wasaccrued and (y) th<strong>en</strong> allocating any remaining amount to principal and translating such amount intoU.S. dollars at the spot rate on the date the Foreign Curr<strong>en</strong>cy Conting<strong>en</strong>t Note was acquired by theU.S. Hol<strong>de</strong>r. For th<strong>is</strong> purpose, any accrued OID reduced by a negative adjustm<strong>en</strong>t carry forward willbe treated as principal.The amount realized by a U.S. Hol<strong>de</strong>r upon the sale, exchange or retirem<strong>en</strong>t of a Foreign Curr<strong>en</strong>cyConting<strong>en</strong>t Note will equal the amount of cash and the fair market value (<strong>de</strong>termined in foreigncurr<strong>en</strong>cy) of any property received. If a U.S. Hol<strong>de</strong>r holds a Foreign Curr<strong>en</strong>cy Conting<strong>en</strong>t Note untilits scheduled maturity, the U.S. dollar equival<strong>en</strong>t of the amount realized will be <strong>de</strong>termined byseparating such amount realized into principal and one or more OID compon<strong>en</strong>ts, based on theprincipal and OID composing the U.S. Hol<strong>de</strong>r’s bas<strong>is</strong>, with the amount realized allocated first to OID(and allocated to the most rec<strong>en</strong>tly accrued amounts first) and any remaining amounts allocated toprincipal. The U.S. dollar equival<strong>en</strong>t of the amount realized upon a sale, exchange or unscheduledretirem<strong>en</strong>t of a Foreign Curr<strong>en</strong>cy Conting<strong>en</strong>t Note will be <strong>de</strong>termined in a similar manner, but willfirst be allocated to principal and th<strong>en</strong> any accrued OID (and will be allocated to the earliest accruedamounts first). Each compon<strong>en</strong>t of the amount realized will be translated into U.S. dollars using theexchange rate used with respect to the corresponding principal or accrued OID. The amount of anygain realized upon a sale, exchange or unscheduled retirem<strong>en</strong>t of a Foreign Curr<strong>en</strong>cy Conting<strong>en</strong>t Notewill be equal to the excess of the amount realized over the hol<strong>de</strong>r’s tax bas<strong>is</strong>, both expressed inforeign curr<strong>en</strong>cy, and will be translated into U.S. dollars using the spot rate on the paym<strong>en</strong>t date. Gainfrom the sale or retirem<strong>en</strong>t of a Foreign Curr<strong>en</strong>cy Conting<strong>en</strong>t Note will g<strong>en</strong>erally be treated as interestincome taxable at ordinary income (rather than capital gains) rates. Any loss will be ordinary loss tothe ext<strong>en</strong>t that the U.S. Hol<strong>de</strong>r’s total OID inclusions to the date of sale or retirem<strong>en</strong>t exceed the totalnet negative adjustm<strong>en</strong>ts that the U.S. Hol<strong>de</strong>r took into account as ordinary loss, and any further losswill be capital loss. Gain or loss realized by a U.S. Hol<strong>de</strong>r on the sale or retirem<strong>en</strong>t of a ForeignCurr<strong>en</strong>cy Conting<strong>en</strong>t Note will g<strong>en</strong>erally be foreign source. Prospective purchasers should consulttheir tax adv<strong>is</strong>ers as to the foreign tax cre<strong>dit</strong> implications of the sale or retirem<strong>en</strong>t of Foreign Curr<strong>en</strong>cyConting<strong>en</strong>t Notes.A U.S. Hol<strong>de</strong>r will also recognize U.S. source exchange rate gain or loss (taxable as ordinary incomeor loss) on the receipt of foreign curr<strong>en</strong>cy in respect of a Foreign Curr<strong>en</strong>cy Conting<strong>en</strong>t Note if theexchange rate in effect on the date the paym<strong>en</strong>t <strong>is</strong> received differs from the rate applicable to theprincipal or accrued OID to which such paym<strong>en</strong>t relates.D<strong>is</strong>position of Foreign Curr<strong>en</strong>cyForeign curr<strong>en</strong>cy received as interest on a Note or on the sale or retirem<strong>en</strong>t of a Note will have a taxbas<strong>is</strong> equal to its U.S. dollar value at the time the foreign curr<strong>en</strong>cy <strong>is</strong> received. Foreign curr<strong>en</strong>cy that <strong>is</strong>purchased will g<strong>en</strong>erally have a tax bas<strong>is</strong> equal to the U.S. dollar value of the foreign curr<strong>en</strong>cy on thedate of purchase. Any gain or loss recogn<strong>is</strong>ed on a sale or other d<strong>is</strong>position of a foreign curr<strong>en</strong>cy(including its use to purchase Notes or upon exchange for U.S. dollars) will be U.S. source ordinaryincome or loss.332
