ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
TAIWAN TAXATION
The following is a summary of certain Taiwan tax consequences with respect to the holders of
the Notes, and is prepared based on current laws and regulations of Taiwan. It does not
purport to be comprehensive and does not constitute legal or tax advice. Investors
(particularly those subject to special tax rules, such as banks, dealers, insurance companies
and tax-exempt entities) should consult with their own tax advisers regarding the tax
consequences of an investment in the Notes.
Interest on the Notes
As the Issuer of the Notes is not a Taiwanese statutory tax withholder, there is no Taiwanese
withholding tax on the interest to be paid by the Issuer on the Notes.
Taiwanese corporate holders must include the interest receivable under the Notes as part of
their taxable income and pay income tax at a flat rate of 17 per cent. (unless the total taxable
income for a fiscal year is under NT$120,000), as they are subject to income tax on their
worldwide income on an accrual basis. The alternative minimum tax ("AMT") is not
applicable.
Sale of the Notes
In general, the sale of corporate bonds or financial bonds is subject to 0.1 per cent. securities
transaction tax ("STT") on the transaction price. However, Article 2-1 of the Taiwan
Securities Transaction Tax Act prescribes that STT will cease to be levied on the sale of
corporate bonds and financial bonds for seven years from 1 January 2010 to 31 December
2016. Therefore, the sale of the Notes will be exempt from STT if the sale is conducted on or
before 31 December 2016. Starting from 1 January 2017, any sale of the Notes will be subject
to STT at 0.1 per cent. of the transaction price, unless otherwise provided by the tax laws that
may be in force at that time.
Capital gains generated from the sale of bonds are exempt from income tax. Accordingly,
Taiwanese corporate holders are not subject to income tax on any capital gains generated
from the sale of the Notes. However, Taiwanese corporate holders should include the capital
gains in calculating their basic income for the purpose of calculating their AMT. If the
amount of the AMT exceeds the annual income tax calculated pursuant to the Income Basic
Tax Act (also known as the AMT Act), the excess becomes the Taiwanese corporate holders'
AMT payable. Capital losses, if any, incurred by such holders could be carried over 5 years to
offset against capital gains of same category of income for the purposes of calculating their
AMT.
Non-Taiwanese corporate holders with a fixed place of business (e.g., a branch) or a business
agent in Taiwan are not subject to income tax on any capital gains generated from the sale of
