Consequences to U.S. Holders of Existing Common Stock Interests (Class 9) Sample Clauses

Consequences to U.S. Holders of Existing Common Stock Interests (Class 9). The exchange of Existing Common Stock Interests for cash and CVRs will be a taxable transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The amount of gain or loss a U.S. Holder recognizes, and the timing and character of such gain or loss, depend in part on the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the CVRs. The installment method of reporting any gain attributable to the receipt of a CVR generally will not be available with respect to the disposition of Existing Common Stock Interests because the Existing Common Stock Interests are traded on an established securities market. Pursuant to U.S. Treasury regulations addressing contingent payment obligations analogous to the CVRs, if the fair market value of the CVRs is “reasonably ascertainable,” a U.S. Holder should treat the transaction as a “closed transaction” and currently include the fair market value of the CVRs in income as additional consideration received in exchange for Existing Common Stock Interests for purposes of determining gain or loss. On the other hand, if the fair market value of the CVRs cannot be reasonably ascertained, a U.S. Holder may treat the transaction as an “open transaction” for purposes of determining gain or loss. The Treasury Regulations describing the “reasonably ascertainable” standard state that only in “rare and extraordinary” cases would the value of contingent payment obligations not be reasonably ascertainable. There is no authority directly addressing whether contingent payment rights with characteristics similar to the rights under a CVR should be treated as “open transactions” or “closed transactions,” and such question is inherently factual in nature. Accordingly, U.S. Holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding this issue. Pursuant to the CVR Agreement, the Company and any CVR recipient intend to treat a stockholder’s receipt of a CVR as the receipt of additional consideration paid in exchange for Existing Common Stock Interests and as part of a “closed transaction” for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The IRS is not bound by any position taken by the Debtors, and may characterize the CVRs as a debt instrument or otherwise. If the IRS disagrees with any position taken by the Debtors, the tax treatment to U.S. Holders receiving the CVRs in exchange for Claims may be materially different from the treatment described below.
