Certain Exceptions. (1) A call op- tion is not treated as a second class of stock for purposes of this paragraph (l) if it is issued to a person that is ac- tively and regularly engaged in the business of lending and issued in con- nection with a commercially reason- able loan to the corporation. This para- graph (l)(4)(iii)(B)(1) continues to apply if the call option is transferred with the loan (or if a portion of the call op- tion is transferred with a cor- responding portion of the loan). How- ever, if the call option is transferred without a corresponding portion of the loan, this paragraph (l)(4)(iii)(B)(1) ceases to apply. Upon that transfer, the call option is tested under paragraph (l)(4)(iii)(A) (notwithstanding anything in that paragraph to the contrary) if, but for this paragraph, the call option would have been treated as a second class of stock on the date it was issued.
