General Tax Information
For Federal income tax purposes, the Trust is treated as a “grantor” trust. As such, the Trust itself is not subject to Federal income tax. Instead, each Beneficiary will be treated as having a direct interest in an allocable pro rata share of each asset and liability of the Trust. As a result, an allocable portion of all items of Trust income, deductions and credits must be reported by Beneficiaries on their income tax return(s).The attached Statement has been prepared on a per-unit basis. Accordingly, each Beneficiary should use the number of Beneficial Units held by them to determine their individual tax impact.
The tax information in this letter is for general informational purposes only and does not address all possible tax considerations that may be material to a Beneficiary and does not constitute legal or tax advice. Moreover, it does not deal with all tax aspects that might be relevant to a Beneficiary, in light of its personal circumstances, nor does it deal with particular types of Beneficiaries that are subject to special treatment under the federal income tax laws. The state, local and foreign tax consequences of any items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit of the Trust may be treated differently for state, local and foreign tax purposes than for federal income tax purposes. To ensure compliance with requirements imposed by the Internal Revenue Service, any tax information contained in this letter is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, for the purpose of (i) avoiding penalties under the Internal Revenue Code or (ii) promoting, marketing or recommending to another party any transaction or matter addressed herein.
The Trustee cannot and does not provide income tax advice or guidance; Beneficiaries are urged to consult with their tax advisers as to their individual tax consequences.
