Dear Sirs:
Re: Paramount Resources Limited
This is with respect to your letter of April 7, 1994, in request of an advance income tax ruling on behalf of the above noted corporation. We apologize for the delay in our reply.
As discussed on September 19, 1994 (Harding/XXXXXXXXXX), the Department's interpretation of paragraphs 7(1)(b), 7(3)(b), and 110(1)(d) is presently under review. Accordingly, we are unable to provide any rulings with respect to your proposals until that review is complete. Nevertheless, and as also discussed with XXXXXXXXXX, it is our view that the provisions of paragraph 7(1)(b) would be applicable at the time any employee elected to receive cash consideration for an option to acquire shares.
The above comments are based on our understanding of the law as it applies in general and may or many not apply to the circumstances of a particular case. It does not form an advance income tax ruling and is not binding on the Department.
Your deposit will be returned under separate cover.
Yours truly,
for Director
Financial Industries Division
Rulings Directorate
