The court preferred the plaintiff's uncontradicted evidence over the defendant's bare denials, found the share option formed part of the plaintiff's remuneration and that Clause 6(G) obliged the defendant to pay the tax; the defendant failed to demonstrate any arguable defence and the defendant's letter to the IRD undermined its case, so summary relief in the form of a declaration and consequential orders was appropriate.
