Tax treatment is uncertain; counsel expects notes to be treated as open transactions for U.S. federal tax purposes.
Special tax counsel opines it is reasonable to treat the notes as "open transactions" not debt instruments, so gains/losses may be long-term capital if held > one year. That treatment is not binding on the IRS and could be challenged.
Section 871(m) analysis is discussed; issuer expects it not to apply based on determinations, but the IRS could disagree. Consult a tax adviser about individual circumstances.
