(1)The filing member of a multinational group may make an election under this section for the members of the group located in a territory to adjust their underlying profits in accordance with subsection (2).
(2)Where such an election has effect—
(a)the underlying profits of each such member is adjusted by substituting, for the amount of any expense for stock-based compensation, the amount that was allowed as a deduction for the same expense when calculating the member’s taxable income, and
(b)where such a member has an expense for stock-based compensation that arises in connection with an option that expires without exercise, the underlying profits of that member for the accounting period in which the option expires are to be increased by such amount of that expense as was an expense in determining the member’s adjusted profits for a previous accounting period.
(3)Where—
(a)the underlying profits of a member of a multinational group are adjusted in accordance with subsection (2) in respect of an amount of stock-based compensation,
(b)some expenses in respect of that compensation were recorded in the underlying profits of the member in one or more accounting periods before the election had effect, and
(c)the sum of the expenses recorded in those periods exceeds the sum of what those expenses would have been had the election been in effect for those periods,
the member’s adjusted profits are to be adjusted to include the amount of that excess as if it were income.
(4)Paragraph 1 of Schedule 15 (long term elections) applies to an election under this section.
(5)Where—
(a)the underlying profits of a member of a multinational group are adjusted in accordance with subsection (2),
(b)the election is revoked before all of the stock-based compensation has been paid, and
(c)the sum of amounts deducted in accordance with subsection (2) exceeds the sum of the financial account expense accrued that has been paid,
the member’s adjusted profits are to be adjusted to include the amount of that excess as if it were income.
