foreign corporation for the taxable year computed with the following 
adjustments:

        business within the United States, except to the extent such

        in earnings and profits), the amount of any illegal bribe, 
        kickback, or other payment (within the meaning of section 
        162(c), except as otherwise provided in this paragraph) shall

        were a United States person.

        shall be excluded any part of any earnings and profits if it is 
        established to the satisfaction of the Secretary that such part 
        could not have been distributed by the controlled foreign 
        corporation to United States shareholders who own (within the 
        meaning of section 958(a)) stock of such controlled foreign 
        corporation because of currency or other restrictions or 
        limitations imposed under the laws of any foreign country.
            ``(4) Earnings and profits shall be determined without 
        regard to paragraphs (4), (5), and (6) of section 312(n). Under 
        regulations, the preceding sentence shall not apply to the 
        extent it would increase earnings and profits by an amount 
        which was previously distributed by the controlled foreign 
        corporation.
Except as provided in this subsection and section 312(k)(4), the 
earnings and profits of any foreign corporation, and the deficit and 
earnings and profits of any foreign corporation for any taxable year

domestic corporations, under regulations prescribed by the Secretary.
