Income Tax Consequences: | Prospective investors seeking to treat the notes as “qualified replacement property” for purposes of Section 1042 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, should be aware that Section 1042 requires the issuer to meet certain requirements in order for the notes to constitute qualified replacement property. In general, qualified replacement property is a security issued by a domestic operating corporation that did not, for the taxable year preceding the taxable year in which such security was purchased, have “passive investment income” in excess of 25 percent of the gross receipts of such corporation for such preceding taxable year (the “passive income test”). For purposes of the passive income test, where the issuing corporation is in control of one or more corporations or such issuing corporation is controlled by one or more corporations, all such corporations are treated as one corporation (the “affiliated group”) when computing the amount of passive investment income under Section 1042. | |
The Issuer believes that it is a domestic operating corporation and that less than 25 percent of its affiliated group’s gross receipts is passive investment income for the taxable year ending December 31, 2005. In making this determination, the Issuer has made certain assumptions and used procedures which it believes are reasonable. The Issuer cannot give any assurances as to whether it will continue to be a domestic operating corporation that meets the passive income test. It is, in addition, possible that the Internal Revenue Service may disagree with the Issuer’s determination of its status as domestic operating corporation or the manner in which the Issuer has calculated the affiliated group’s gross receipts (including the characterization thereof) and passive investment income and the conclusions reached herein. | ||
Notwithstanding that the final maturity of the notes is more than 30 years after the original issue date, prospective investors should refer to the discussion under “United States Taxation” in the accompanying prospectus supplement for a discussion of the other material consequences of owning the notes. |
