(d) where in accordance with any provision of the Agreement income derived or capital owned by a resident of Austria is exempt from tax in Austria, Austria may nevertheless, in calculating the amount of tax on the remaining income or capital of such resident, take into account the exempted income or capital;
(e) the provisions of subparagraph (a) shall not apply to income derived or capital owned by a resident of Austria where the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region applies the provisions of this Agreement to exempt such income or capital from tax or applies the provisions of paragraph 2 of Article 10 or 12 to such income.
