Artikel VI Overeenkomst tussen het Koninkrijk der Nederlanden en de Verenigde Staten van Amerika tot het vermijden van dubbele belasting en het voorkomen van het ontgaan van belasting met betrekking tot belastingen naar het inkomen

VI In reference to subparagraph 2 a) and paragraph 6 of Article 10 (Dividends) It is understood that a beneficial owner of the dividends, who holds depository receipts or trust certificates evidencing beneficial ownership of the shares in lieu of the shares themselves in the company in question, may also claim the treaty benefits of subparagraph 2 a) of Article 10 (Dividends). In addition, it is understood that where a person loans shares (or other rights the income from which is subject to the same taxation treatment as income from shares) and receives from the borrower an obligation to pay an amount equivalent to any dividend distribution made with respect to the shares or other rights loaned during the term of such loan, such person shall be treated as the beneficial owner of the dividend paid with respect to such shares or other rights for purposes of the application of Article 10 to any such equivalent amount.
