(1) Notwithstanding the provisions of Articles 7 and 14,
income derived by a resident of a Contracting State as an enter-
tainer, such as a theatre, motion picture, radio or television
artiste, or a musician, or as a sportsman, from his personal activ-
ities as such exercised in the other Contracting State, may be
taxed in that other State.
(2) Where income in respect of personal activities exercised
by an entertainer or a sportsman in his capacity as such accrues
not to the entertainer or sportsman himself but to another
person, that income may, notwithstanding the provisions of
Articles 7 and 14, be taxed in the Contracting State in which the
activities of the entertainer or sportsman are exercised.
(3) Paragraphs 1 and 2 shall not apply to income accruing
from the exercise of activities by artistes or sportsmen in a Con-
tracting State where the visit to that State is financed entirely or
mainly from public funds of the other Contracting State, a
“Land”, a political subdivision or a local authority of a “Land” or
a Contracting State or by an organisation which in that other
State is recognised as a charitable organisation. In such a case
the income shall be taxable only in the Contracting State of
which the individual is a resident.
