It was an improved scheme,where by I exercised share options by receving full shares and not cash in 2002. The amount of total shares amounted to around 10Keuro (8k$) in 2002, of which 4,200 euro was tax that I deferred until 2009. These shares are in dollars so with the rate so bad and these shares now worth around same 8k$ around 6500 euro. So I was hoping to defer again hoping that the $ would get stronger against the Euro. Since the tax owed is still 4,200K euro I have lost a few grand because of the weak dollar. I did look at you link which states they no longer defer so not looking good.
