Please note that the following document, although believed to be correct at the time of issue, may not represent the current position of the CRA.
Prenez note que ce document, bien qu'exact au moment émis, peut ne pas représenter la position actuelle de l'ARC.
Principal Issues: 1. Is Forco1, a XXXXXXXXXX cooperative, established under the laws of the XXXXXXXXXX , a corporation for the purposes of the Act. 2. Where a foreign entity is considered to be a corporation for the purposes of the Act but ownership in the entity is not divided into units entitled shares, can an ownership interest in such an entity be considered to be shares in the capital stock of that entity for the purposes of the Act. 3. Does paragraph 95(6)(b) apply in the case of a proposed new double-dip financing arrangement or in the case of a proposed rearranging of an existing financing arrangement to take advantage of a double-dip arrangement.
Position: 1. Yes. 2. Yes. 3. No.
Reasons: 1. It is the CRA's position that where a XXXXXXXXXX cooperative established under the laws of the XXXXXXXXXX meets certain specific criteria it will be considered to be a corporation for the purposes of the Act and Forco1 meets all those criteria. 2. Even though IT 392 Meaning of the term "share" [Reference: Section 91 (also sections 92. 93, and 95) and Regulations Part LIX] issued September 26, 1977 has been archived (2002-06-09) it still represents the CRA's position. 3. The CRA's position that paragraph 95(6)(b) does not apply is set out in example 2 of ITTN No.36 issued July 27, 2007 and in substance the rearranging of existing debt is no different.

1. Pubco is a taxable Canadian corporation and a public corporation incorporated under the laws of Canada. Pubco's shares are widely held and are listed and traded on the XXXXXXXXXX . Norco1 currently owns approximately XXXXXXXXXX % of the common equity of Pubco. If Norco1 chooses to exercise all of its contractual rights vis-à-vis Pubco under various agreements, it may increase its stake in Pubco to up to XXXXXXXXXX %.
2. Pubco is an XXXXXXXXXX company. While it also does some of its XXXXXXXXXX in Canada, generally Pubco's activities in Canada are otherwise limited to XXXXXXXXXX and administrative activities. All or substantially all of the XXXXXXXXXX activities carried on by members of the Pubco Group are all performed outside Canada.
3. Pubco currently has a taxation year-end of XXXXXXXXXX . Its business number is XXXXXXXXXX and it is served by the XXXXXXXXXX Tax Services Office. Pubco has not made a functional currency election under section 261.
Finco
4. Finco is a limited liability company established under the laws of State A and is resident in Country 1.
5. All of the equity interests in Finco are owned by Pubco. It is anticipated that the activities of Finco will be limited to providing financing to Forco1.
Forco1
6. Forco1 is a cooperative established under the laws of Country 2 and is resident in Country 2.
7. In accordance with its constating document, Forco1 has the following general characteristics:
(a) Forco1 is a legal entity separate from its members;
(b) Forco1 has the capacity to contract in its own name, for its own account and at its own risk;
(c) Forco1 is incorporated for an indefinite period;
(d) admission and transfer of membership in Forco1 is subject to members' approval;
(e) each member is entitled to at least one vote, and the total number of votes is in proportion to the capital accounts;
(f) members have separate capital accounts the repayment of which is subject to the approval of all members;
(g) profits are available to Forco1 and can be retained by Forco1 unless the members vote in favour of distribution;
(h) the board of directors has authority to represent Forco1; and
(i) members are excluded from any liability for any of Forco1's debts or losses.
8. All of the equity interests in Forco1 are owned, directly or indirectly, by Pubco. Pubco directly owns XXXXXXXXXX % of the equity interest in Forco1 and the remaining XXXXXXXXXX % is owned by Cansub, which is XXXXXXXXXX % owned by Pubco. Cansub is a corporation incorporated in Canada and is a taxable Canadian corporation. The activities of Forco1 are anticipated to be limited to holding equity in and providing equity financing to Forco2.
9. Under the domestic tax law of Country 2, Forco1 is viewed as a corporation and by virtue of the fact that it is established under the laws of Country 2, it is normally subject to Country 2's corporate tax on its worldwide profits at a top rate of XXXXXXXXXX %, subject to any available exemptions.
Forco2
10. Forco2 is a XXXXXXXXXX established under the laws of Country 2 and is resident in Country 2.
11. All of the equity interests in Forco2 are owned by Forco1. The activities of Forco2 are anticipated to be limited to holding equity in and providing equity and debt financing to Opco and to holding the Core Receivable.
12. Under the domestic tax law of Country 2, Forco2 is viewed as a corporation and by virtue of the fact that it is established under the laws of Country 2, it is normally subject to Country 2's corporate tax on its worldwide profits at a top rate of XXXXXXXXXX %, subject to any available exemptions. However, because XXXXXXXXXX , Forco1 will be primarily responsible for Forco2's tax liabilities to Country 2. As a result Forco1 and Forco2, as a group, will be subject to tax in Country 2 on the spread between (a) the interest earned from Opco on the Core Receivable and the Forco2 Loan and (b) the interest payable to Finco under the New Receivable and the Finco Loan and Forco 1 will be responsible to Country 2 for the tax payable. Forco2 will be directly responsible to Country 2's tax authorities for its own tax liabilities only if Forco1 fails to pay those amounts.
Holdco1, Holdco2, and Holdco 3
13. Pubco owns all the equity interest in Holdco1 a company established under the laws of State A.

(b) its capital is divided into shares;
(c) shares in Opco represent ownership interests in Opco, and not an ownership interest in any of Opco's separate property;

(f) it is established for an indefinite duration;
(g) its common shareholders are entitled to vote;
(h) it is a limited liability company;
(i) there are pre-emptive rights applicable to the transfer of its common shares;
(j) its shareholders are generally not liable for Opco's obligations and only bear risk of loss to the extent of the shares held;
(k) it may pay dividends if certain conditions (e.g., solvency) are met;
(l) a resolution to pay dividends must be made through Opco's Board of Directors;
(m) it has a Board of Directors, which is its governing body between shareholder meetings; and
(n) its Board of Directors consists of XXXXXXXXXX members, whom are elected by the vote of holders of common shares only.
16. The Shareholders' Agreement provides that Stateco, a state-owned company of Country 3 incorporated under the Company Law of Country 3, is entitled to nominate XXXXXXXXXX directors to Opco's Board of Directors and Forco2 and Holdco 3 are entitled to nominate the remaining XXXXXXXXXX directors.
17. Opco is in the business of XXXXXXXXXX in Country 3. Opco's principal asset is the Project. All or substantially Opco's assets are used in its active business. Under the tax law of Country 3, Opco is taxable on its revenues generated both in Country 3 and in a foreign country in a given year because it is a body corporate established under the laws of Country 3.
18. Currently, all of the common shares in Opco are owned by Forco2 and Holdco3. However, upon XXXXXXXXXX , Opco will issue to Stateco, on behalf of the Government of Country 3, the number of common shares of Opco required to give it XXXXXXXXXX % of the common equity in Opco. Following this acquisition, it is anticipated that Pubco will indirectly own the remaining XXXXXXXXXX % of the common equity in Opco, XXXXXXXXXX .
The Project
19. The Project is located in Country 3 XXXXXXXXXX
20. It is currently anticipated that the Project will cost in excess of XXXXXXXXXX . These costs will be funded through a mix of preferred share equity purchased in Opco and loans to Opco (in proportions that meet Country 3's thin capitalization limitations) and, potentially, direct financing from arm's length sources.
21. XXXXXXXXXX
22. Any new debt of Opco used to fund the Project bears interest at an inflation-adjusted rate of XXXXXXXXXX % per annum and any preferred share equity acquired in Opco bears cumulative dividends at an inflation-adjusted rate of XXXXXXXXXX % per annum.
23. XXXXXXXXXX
24. The current estimated net present value of the Project is approximately XXXXXXXXXX taking into account all anticipated expenditures. Total capital expenditures over the life of the Project are anticipated to be approximately XXXXXXXXXX .
25. XXXXXXXXXX
The Initial Advances and Subsequent Negotiations with XXXXXXXXXX
26. Commencing in XXXXXXXXXX , Pubco made the Initial Advances to Opco in several tranches and in an aggregate principal amount of approximately XXXXXXXXXX . Approximately XXXXXXXXXX of the cash used by Pubco to make the Initial Advances was obtained from Pubco's own equity capital and the balance from the proceeds of the issuance of XXXXXXXXXX .
27. XXXXXXXXXX
28. The Initial Advances were used by Opco to fund the initial capital requirements of the Project, which involved XXXXXXXXXX
29. As a result of the Initial Advances, Pubco currently holds the Initial Receivable in an amount equal to the aggregate of the Initial Advances to Opco.
30. The Initial Receivable is currently non-interest-bearing. However, following XXXXXXXXXX , the holder of the Initial Receivable will be entitled to receive interest at the annual rate of XXXXXXXXXX %, adjusted for inflation, on a specified portion of the Initial Receivable if and when XXXXXXXXXX . The portion of the Initial Receivable that is ultimately intended to bear interest is referred to herein as the "Core Receivable" while the portion that is not intended to bear interest is referred to herein as the "Non-Core Receivable".
31. XXXXXXXXXX
32. It is currently anticipated by Pubco and Opco that, once finally determined, the Core Receivable will be equal to approximately XXXXXXXXXX % of the Initial Receivable (i.e., the Core Receivable will have a principal amount of approximately XXXXXXXXXX ), while the Non-Core Receivable will be equal to the balance (i.e., approximately XXXXXXXXXX % or XXXXXXXXXX of the Initial Receivable).
33. Any interest that is ultimately paid on the Core Receivable will be subject to Country 3's withholding tax at the rate of XXXXXXXXXX %, subject to reduction by an applicable income tax convention. The deduction of interest in Country 3 is subject to thin capitalization limitations (XXXXXXXXXX ) and in certain circumstances interest expense must be capitalized.
34. The initial capital requirements of the Project were funded directly by Pubco through the Initial Advances rather than through the structure involving Finco, Forco1 and Forco2 because this was initially viewed as the best means to:
(a) XXXXXXXXXX ;
(b) XXXXXXXXXX ;
(c) XXXXXXXXXX ;
(d) XXXXXXXXXX ; and
(e) minimize general and administrative costs.
35. XXXXXXXXXX
36. To finance the future capital needs of the Project, Pubco anticipates raising a portion of the funds to be used from XXXXXXXXXX . As well, Pubco has begun seeking project financing of up to XXXXXXXXXX from a mixture of international sources including commercial banks and other financial agencies.
37. To the best of your knowledge and that of Pubco, none of the issues involved in this ruling is:
(a) in an earlier return of Pubco, or a related person;
(b) being considered by a tax services office or taxation centre in connection with a previously filed tax return of Pubco or a related person;
(c) under objection by Pubco or a related person;
(d) before the courts or, if a judgment has been issued, the time limit for appeal to higher court has not expired; or
(e) the subject of a ruling previously considered by the Income Tax Rulings Directorate.
III. PROPOSED TRANSACTIONS
38. From time to time and as needed, Pubco proposes to finance a portion of the future capital needs of the Project by the following means:
(a) Pubco will inject equity capital into Finco in exchange for additional equity interests in Finco;
(b) Finco will use such capital (less any transaction costs) to make the Finco Loan to Forco1;
(c) Forco1 will use such capital (less any transaction costs) to acquire additional equity interests in Forco2;
(d) Forco2 will use such capital (less any transaction costs) to make the Forco2 Loan to Opco; and
(e) Opco will use such capital (less any transaction costs) to fund in part the capital needs of the Project.
39. The terms of the Finco Loan and the terms of the Forco2 Loan will be substantially the same (including timing of payments thereunder and the term of the loan) except that:
(a) the Forco2 Loan will bear interest at a rate that is XXXXXXXXXX % higher than the Finco Loan;
(b) the obligation of Finco to make the Finco Loan will be conditional upon the completion of the transaction described in paragraph 38(a) above;
(c) the obligation of Forco2 to make the Forco2 Loan will be conditional upon the completion of the transactions described in paragraphs 38(b) and (c) above; and
(d) under the terms of the Forco2 Loan, Opco is required to use the proceeds of that loan (net of any transaction costs) for the sole purpose of funding the capital requirements of the Project.
40. In addition to the above transactions, while Pubco intends to maintain ownership of the Non-Core Receivable, Pubco will reorganize its ownership of the Core Receivable to incorporate it into the new financing structure. In this regard, in Canadian dollar terms, Pubco anticipates that the proposed transfer described in paragraph 40(a) below will result in a loss to it due XXXXXXXXXX . The reorganization will be accomplished through the following transactions:
(a) before the Core Receivable becomes interest-bearing, Pubco will assign the Core Receivable to Finco in exchange for additional equity interests in Finco with a value equal to the principal amount of the Core Receivable;
(b) Finco will assign the Core Receivable to Forco2 in exchange for equity in Forco2 with a value equal to the principal amount of the Core Receivable;
(c) Finco will sell its equity in Forco2 to Forco1 in exchange for a promise by Forco1 to pay an amount equal to the value of the transferred equity plus interest at an inflation-adjusted rate of XXXXXXXXXX %, less XXXXXXXXXX %, per annum (the "New Receivable"); and
(d) Forco2 will receive any interest paid by Opco on the Core Receivable.
IV. PURPOSE OF PROPOSED TRANSACTIONS
41. The purpose of the proposed transactions is to allow Pubco to restructure its existing capital and provide new capital to Opco to facilitate the completion of the Project in a manner that meets the commercial, regulatory and tax requirements of all parties.
