estate (the second trust estate ); and
- (b)
- the whole or the part of the share (which whole or part is in this
subsection called the taxpayer's portion of the distributed amount of the
non-resident trust's year of income ) is attributable (either directly or
indirectly through one or more interposed partnerships or trusts) to the
distributed amount of the non-resident trust's year of income; and
- (c)
- if paragraph 102UK(2)(b) or 102UM(2)(b) were ignored, the second trust
estate would be an interposed trust mentioned in applying subparagraph
(4)(b)(iii) or (iv) of this section; and
- (d)
- this subsection does not also apply to the trustee of a trust interposed
between the first trust estate and the non-resident trust;

Commissioner in respect of the taxpayer's portion of the distributed amount of
the non-resident trust's year of income, calculated under subsection (5), on
the amount calculated using the formula:
where:
applicable rate of tax has the meaning given by subsection (10).
FTC [Foreign tax credit] means so much of any credit under Division 18 to
which the trustee of the first trust would be entitled, in respect of the
taxpayer's portion of the distributed amount of the non-resident trust's year
of income, if the taxpayer's portion of the distributed amount of the
non-resident trust's income were an amount in respect of which the trustee
were liable to be assessed and to pay tax under section 99A.
taxpayer's portion of the distributed amount means the taxpayer's portion of
the distributed amount of the non-resident trust's year of income.
