- If the STE has received or is receiving CIT incentives under other conditions (in addition to incentives given to STEs) and is issued with an STE certificate, the duration during which it will receive CIT remission as an STE will be the CIT remission duration given to the STE minus the period during which it has received CIT remission under other conditions.

- If additional science and technology products are added by a competent authority to the STE certificate of an STE that is operating and receiving CIT remission for an STE, the revenue from such additional science and technology products shall be also eligible for the CIT remission that the STE is receiving for the remaining CIT remission duration.
