511. In computing the adjusted cost base, after 31 March 1977, of a debt owing to an individual by a corporation on 31 March 1977, the individual must deduct the amount of any dividend he would be deemed to have received on that date if the corporation had paid the debt in full on that date.
However, this section does not apply where the debt contemplated in the first paragraph is converted, after 31 March 1977 and before 1979, into shares of a particular class of the capital stock of the corporation and the debt was owing to the individual by the corporation continuously from 31 March 1977 until the time of that conversion.
