Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences to Stockholders Sample Clauses

Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences to Stockholders. The following is a summary of certain U.S. Federal income tax consequences of the receipt of cash for Shares sold pursuant to the Offer. This discussion is based on the Code, applicable Treasury regulations thereunder, judicial and administrative decisions, and Internal Revenue Service rulings and other pronouncements as of the date hereof. In general, sales of Shares by stockholders pursuant to the Offer will be taxable transactions for U.S. Federal income tax purposes and may also be taxable transactions under applicable state, local, foreign and other tax laws. For Federal income tax purposes, a tendering stockholder will generally recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount of cash received by the stockholder pursuant to the Offer and the stockholder's tax basis in the Shares sold pursuant to the Offer. Recognized gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss if the Shares are held for more than 18 months and will be mid-term capital gain or loss if the Shares are held for more than 12 months but not more than 18 months. For non-corporate taxpayers, long-term capital gain is currently subject to a maximum marginal Federal income tax rate of 20% (10% for individuals in the 15% Federal income tax bracket). Mid-term capital gain is currently subject to a maximum marginal Federal income tax rate of 28% (15% for individuals in the 15% Federal income tax bracket). Short-term capital gain and ordinary income are currently subject to a maximum marginal Federal income tax rate of 39.6%. Under the Federal alternative minimum tax, the maximum rate for non-corporate taxpayers on net capital gain is, generally, 20%. For corporations, the maximum Federal income tax rate is 35% on both capital gains and ordinary income. If a stockholder recognizes a capital loss as a result of the sale of Shares pursuant to the Offer, such loss generally will only be deductible to the extent of other capital gains, plus, in the case of an individual stockholder, $3,000 per year. The foregoing discussion does not purport to deal with all aspects of Federal income taxation and may not be applicable to certain types of stockholders, including stockholders who acquired Shares pursuant to compensation arrangements with the Company, individuals who are not citizens or residents of the United States, foreign corporations, securities dealers, and entities that are otherwise subject to special tax treatment under the Code (such as insurance companies, tax-exempt en...

The Equity Certificate constitutes the sole equity interest in the Trust and must at all times be held by either the Trust Depositor or its transferee as sole Owner. The Trust Depositor agrees not to take any action inconsistent with such intended federal income tax treatment.

Accordingly, for federal income tax purposes, the Certificateholder will be treated as (i) owning all assets owned by the Trust and (ii) having incurred all liabilities incurred by the Trust, and all transactions between the Trust and the Certificateholder will be disregarded.
