(C) subsidiary, and it plans the use of money from that
(D) subsidiary and plans to use money from that sale
(E) subsidiary and plans the use of money from that sale

IMO - D

The problem with A is that "which" seems to refer to the subsidary whereas which should refer to the "sale".
Hence A is wrong. A and B have the same mistake. From the other options it is clear that the answer is D

In choice A, I think 'which' refers incorrectly to subsidiary. I also agree with answer choice D.
Have you wondered how you could have found such a treasure? -T
