  "heading": "General provisions on calculation",
  "text": "1. The amount of the countervailable subsidies shall be determined per unit of the subsidised product exported to the Union.\nIn establishing that amount, the following elements may be deducted from the total subsidy:\n(a) any application fee or other costs necessarily incurred in order to qualify for, or to obtain, the subsidy;\n(b) export taxes, duties or other charges levied on the export of the product to the Union specifically intended to offset the subsidy.\nWhere an interested party claims a deduction, it must prove that the claim is justified.\n2. Where the subsidy is not granted by reference to the quantities manufactured, produced, exported or transported, the amount of countervailable subsidy shall be determined by allocating the value of the total subsidy, as appropriate, over the level of production, sales or exports of the products concerned during the investigation period for subsidisation.\n3. Where the subsidy can be linked to the acquisition or future acquisition of fixed assets, the amount of the countervailable subsidy shall be calculated by spreading the subsidy across a period which reflects the normal depreciation of such assets in the industry concerned.\nThe amount so calculated which is attributable to the investigation period, including that which derives from fixed assets acquired before that period, shall be allocated as described in paragraph 2.\nWhere the assets are non-depreciating, the subsidy shall be valued as an interest-free loan, and be treated in accordance with Article 6(b).\n4. Where a subsidy cannot be linked to the acquisition of fixed assets, the amount of the benefit received during the investigation period shall in principle be attributed to that period, and allocated as described in paragraph 2, unless special circumstances arise justifying attribution over a different period.",
