(4) Where, except for the application of this paragraph, a fringe benefit is taxable in both Contracting States, the fringe benefit will be taxable only in the Contracting State that has the sole or primary taxing right in accordance with the Agreement in respect of salary, wages or other similar remuneration from the employment to which the fringe benefit relates. A Contracting State has a “primary taxing right” to the extent that a taxing right in respect of salary, wages or other similar remuneration from the relevant employment is allocated to that State in accordance with this Agreement and the other Contracting State is required to provide relief for the tax imposed in respect of such remuneration by the first-mentioned State.
