the Parties are not required to obtain and include in the exchanged information the Portuguese TIN or the U.S.

TIN, as applicable, of any relevant person if such taxpayer identifying number is not in the records of the Reporting

Financial Institution. In such a case, the Parties shall obtain and include in the exchanged information the date

of birth of the relevant person, if the Reporting Financial Institution has such date of birth in its records.

5. Subject to paragraphs 3 and 4 of this Article, the information described in Article 2 of this Agreement shall

be exchanged within nine months after the end of the calendar year to which the information relates.

6. The Competent Authorities of Portugal and the United States shall enter into an agreement or

arrangement under the mutual agreement procedure provided for in Article 27 of the Convention, which shall:

a) establish the procedures for the automatic exchange obligations described in Article 2 of this Agreement;

8. Following entry into force of this Agreement, each Competent Authority shall provide written notification

to the other Competent Authority when it is satisfied that the jurisdiction of the other Competent Authority has in

place (i) appropriate safeguards to ensure that the information received pursuant to this Agreement shall remain

confidential and be used solely for tax purposes, and (ii) the infrastructure for an effective exchange relationship

(including established processes for ensuring timely, accurate, and confidential information exchanges, effective

and reliable communications, and demonstrated capabilities to promptly resolve questions and concerns about

exchanges or requests for exchanges and to administer the provisions of Article 5 of this Agreement). The
