Introduction
The Internal Revenue Bulletin is the authoritative instrument of
the Commissioner of Internal Revenue for announcing official
rulings and procedures of the Internal Revenue Service and for
publishing Treasury Decisions, Executive Orders, Tax Conven-
tions, legislation, court decisions, and other items of general
interest. It is published weekly and may be obtained from the
Superintendent of Documents on a subscription basis. Bul-
letin contents are consolidated semiannually into Cumulative
Bulletins, which are sold on a single-copy basis.
It is the policy of the Service to publish in
the Bulletin all sub-
stantive rulings necessary to promote a un
iform application of
the tax laws, including all rulings that s
upersede, revoke, mod-
ify, or amend any of those previously pub
lished in the Bulletin.
All published rulings apply retroacti
vely unless otherwise indi-
cated. Procedures relating solely
to matters of internal man-
agement are not published; howeve
r, statements of internal
practices and procedures that af
fect the rights and duties of
taxpayers are published.
Revenue rulings represent the conclusions of the Service on the
application of the law to the pivotal facts stated in the revenue
ruling. In those based on positions taken in rulings to taxpayers
or technical advice to Service field offices, identifying details
and information of a confidential nature are deleted to prevent
unwarranted invasions of privacy and to comply with statutory
requirements.
Rulings and procedures reported in the Bulletin do not have the
force and effect of Treasury Department Regulations, but they
may be used as precedents. Unpublished rulings will not be
relied on, used, or cited as precedents by Service personnel in
the disposition of other cases. In applying published rulings and
procedures, the effect of subsequent legislation, regulations,
court decisions, rulings, and procedures must be considered,
and Service personnel and others concerned are cautioned
against reaching the same conclusions in other cases unless
the facts and circumstances are substantially the same.
The Bulletin is divided into four parts as follows:
Part I.—1986 Code.
This part includes rulings and decisions based on provisions of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.
Part II.—Treaties and Tax Legislation.
This part is divided into two subparts as follows: Subpart A,
Tax Conventions and Other Related Items, and Subpart B, Leg-
islation and Related Committee Reports.
Part III.—Administrative, Procedural, and Miscellaneous.
To the extent practicable, pertinent cross references to these
subjects are contained in the other Parts and Subparts. Also
included in this part are Bank Secrecy Act Administrative Rul-
ings. Bank Secrecy Act Administrative Rulings are issued by
the Department of the TreasuryÊs Office of the Assistant Sec-
retary (Enforcement).
Part IV.—Items of General Interest.
This part includes notices of proposed rulemakings, disbar-
ment and suspension lists, and announcements.
The first Bulletin for each month includes a cumulative index
for the matters published during the preceding months. These
monthly indexes are cumulated on a semiannual basis, and
are published in the first Bulletin of the succeeding semiannual
period, respectively.
The contents of this pu
blication are not copyrighted and may be reprinted freely. A citation of the Internal Revenue Bulletin as the source would be appropriate.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
This document contains amendments
to 26 CFR Part 1.On November 12,
2002, the IRS and Treasury published in
theFederal Registera temporary regu-
lation (T.D. 9020, 2002–2 C.B. 907 [67
FR 68512]) relating to the substantiation
under section 274(d) of the Internal Rev-
enue Code of incidental expenses incurred
while traveling away from home.On
the same day, the IRS and Treasury pub-
lished a notice of proposed rulemaking
(REG–141832–02, 2002–2 C.B. 921 [67
FR 68539]) cross-referencing the tempo-
rary regulations.
Written comments from two commen-
tators were received.A commentator
initially requested a public hearing but
subsequently withdrew the request. No
public hearing was held. The comments
generally related to implementation of
these regulations in future guidance and
will be further considered in connection
with that guidance. After consideration of
the comments, the proposed regulations
are adopted by this Treasury decision.
Special Analyses
It has been determined that this Trea-
sury decision is not a significant regula-
tory action as defined in Executive Order
12866. Therefore, a regulatory assessment
is not required. It is hereby certified that
these regulations will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number
of small entities. This certification is based
upon the fact that these regulations do not
require a collection of information and do
not impose any new or different require-
ments on small entities. Therefore, a Reg-
ulatory Flexibility Analysis under the Reg-
ulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. chapter 6)
is not required. Pursuant to section 7805(f)
of the Internal Revenue Code, the pro-
posed regulations preceding these regula-
tions were submitted to the Chief Counsel
for Advocacy of the Small Business Ad-
ministration for comment on their impact.
Drafting Information
The principal author of these regula-
tions is Sameera Hasan, Office of Asso-
ciate Chief Counsel (Income Tax & Ac-
counting). However, other personnel from
the IRS and Treasury Department partici-
pated in the development.

ing the application of section 367(e)(2)
to certain outbound liquidations.The
regulations amend the anti-abuse rule of
§1.367(e)–2(d) by narrowing the scope

tributions, to distributions in taxable years
ending after August 8, 1999.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On August 9, 1999, the IRS and Trea-
sury published final regulations (T.D.
8834, 1999–2 C.B. 251 [64 FR 43072])
in theFederal Registerunder section
367(e)(2) regarding distributions of prop-
erty in a complete liquidation under
section 332 by a domestic corporation to
a foreign parent corporation (outbound
liquidation) and by a foreign corpo-
ration to a foreign parent corporation
(foreign-to-foreign liquidations).On
November 20, 2002, the IRS and Treasury
published a notice of proposed rulemaking
(REG–127380–02, 2002–2 C.B. 969 [67
FR 70031]) in theFederal Registerthat
would amend an anti-abuse rule in the
final regulations to limit its application
only to outbound liquidations of domestic
corporations, and to clarify what consti-
tutes a principal purpose of tax avoidance
for purposes of the anti-abuse rule.
Explanation of Provisions
The final regulations published in 1999
included an anti-abuse rule providing that
the Commissioner may require a foreign
or domestic liquidating corporation to rec-
ognize gain (or treat the liquidating corpo-
ration as if it had recognized a loss) on a
liquidating distribution if a principal pur-
pose of the liquidation is the avoidance of
U.S. tax. §1.367(e)–2(d). The notice of
proposed rulemaking proposed amending
the anti-abuse rule under §1.367(e)–2(d)
to limit the application of this rule to out-
bound liquidations of domestic corpora-
tions. The notice of proposed rulemak-
ing also proposed clarifying what consti-
tutes a principal purpose for purposes of
the anti-abuse rules in §1.367(e)–2(d) and
§1.367(e)–2(b)(2)(iii)(C)(1). One written
comment responding to the notice of pro-
posed rulemaking was received, but this
comment did not request any changes. The
public hearing was canceled because no re-
quests were received to speak at the hear-
ing. Accordingly, the proposed regulations
are adopted by this Treasury decision with-
out change.
Special Analyses
It has been determined that this Trea-
sury decision is not a significant regula-
tory action as defined in Executive Order
12866. Therefore, a regulatory assessment
is not required. It has also been determined
that section 553(b) of the Administrative
Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. chapter 5) does
not apply to this regulation, and because
the regulation does not impose a collection
of information on small entities, the Regu-
latory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. chapter 6)
does not apply.
Drafting Information
The principal author of these final reg-
ulations is Aaron A. Farmer of the Of-
fice of the Associate Chief Counsel (Inter-
national), IRS. However, other personnel
from the Treasury and the IRS participated
in their development.

(d)Anti-abuse rule. The Commissioner
may require a domestic liquidating corpo-
ration to recognize gain on a distribution
in liquidation described in paragraph (b)
of this section (or treatthe liquidating cor-
poration as if it had recognized loss on a
distribution in liquidation), if a principal
purpose of the liquidation is the avoidance
of U.S. tax (including, but not limited to,
the distribution of a liquidating corpora-
tion’s earnings and profits with a principal
purpose of avoiding U.S. tax). A liquida-

of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Section 382 in General
Section 382 limits the amount of tax-
able income that may be offset by cer-
tain loss carryovers and recognized built-in
losses following an ownership change of a
loss corporation. Section 382(g) defines an
ownership change as a change in the per-
centage of ownership of the loss corpora-
tion’s stock owned bythe 5-percent share-
holders of more than 50 percentage points
(by value) over a 3-year period. Congress
intended the section 382 limitation to ap-
ply when new shareholders that did not
bear the economic burden of the losses ac-
quire a controlling interest in the loss cor-
poration.SeeH.R. Rep. No. 99–426,
1986–3 C.B. (Vol. 2) 256; S. Rep. No.
99–313 1986–3 C.B. (Vol. 3) 232.
Constructive Ownership Rules
Section 382(l)(3) provides that in de-
termining the ownership of stock of a loss
corporation, the constructive ownership
rules of section 318 apply, with certain
exceptions. Section 382 (by reference to
the rules of section 318) and the regula-
tions thereunder generally attribute stock
ownedbyanentitysuchasacorpora-
tion or a partnership to its shareholders
or partners, respectively. Therefore, if a
corporation makes apro ratadistribution
of an interest in a loss corporation to its
shareholders, the distribution does not
result in an acquisition of that interest by
the shareholders that must be taken into
account in determining whether the loss
corporation has an ownership change. On
the other hand, section 382 and the reg-
ulations thereunder do not attribute stock
owned by a qualified trust described in
section 401(a) (qualified trust) to partic-
ipants in the qualified plan under which
the trust is established.In particular,
although section 318(a)(2) provides for
attribution of stock owned by a trust to
its beneficiaries, it excepts qualified trusts
from the application of this rule. More-
over, §1.382–2T(h)(2)(iii) provides that a
qualified trust is treated as an individual
unrelated to any other direct or indirect
owner of the loss corporation. Accord-
ingly, the participants under a qualified
plan are not treated as owning any interest
in a loss corporation owned by the trust.
Therefore, if a qualified trust owns directly
5 percent or more of a loss corporation, a
distribution of an interest in the loss cor-
poration from the trust to plan participants
(or their beneficiaries) results in an acqui-
sition of that interest by the participants
(or their beneficiaries) that must be taken
into account in determining whether the
loss corporation has an ownership change.
2003-36 I.R.B.510September 8, 2003

Explanation of Provisions
In General
Treasury and the IRS are concerned
that, under the current rules, a distribution
of an ownership interest in an entity from
a qualified trust may cause an ownership
change, even though that event may not
change the ultimate beneficial ownership
of the loss corporation. To prevent this
result, these temporary regulations set
forth new rules.
Distributions From Qualified Trusts
The temporary regulations provide that
if a qualified trust distributes an owner-
ship interest in an entity, then for testing
dates on or after the date of the distribu-
tion, the distributed ownership interest will
be treated as having been acquired by the
distributee on the date and in the manner
acquired by the trust. Furthermore, the dis-
tribution itself does not give rise to a test-
ing date. Because the rule applies only for
testing dates on or after the date of the dis-
tribution, a distribution does not retroac-
tively cause (or undo) an owner shift that
would (or would not) have occurred if the
distributee had actually acquired the own-
ership interest on the date and in the man-
ner acquired by the qualified trust.
To determine which ownership interests
have been distributed, the loss corporation
must account for all dispositions of own-
ership interests by the qualified trust either
by specifically identifying the ownership
interest disposed of, or by using a first-in,
first-out (FIFO) method. The loss corpora-
tion, however, must apply the same method
to all dispositions by the qualified trust.
Effective Dates
The temporary regulations apply to all
distributions from qualified trusts after
June 27, 2003. The loss corporation may
choose to apply the rules retroactively in
one of two ways: (1) to all distributions
from qualified trusts on or before June
27, 2003, and within a testing period
that includes June 27, 2003; or (2) to all
distributions from qualified trusts after
December 31, 1986. Retroactive appli-
cation will affect a taxpayer’s items of
income, gain, deduction, or loss only in
open years.
Request for Comments and Future
Regulations
Treasury and the IRS request com-
ments regarding whether there are other
events that, under current rules, are taken
into account in determining whether an
ownership change occurs, but do not cause
the ultimate beneficial ownership of the
loss corporation to change. In this regard,
Treasury and the IRS have been studying
the constructive ownership rules as they
apply to members of a family, and the
effect of those rules on the determina-
tion of whether a loss corporation has
an ownership change. Subject to certain
exceptions,§1.382–2T(h)(6)(ii)treats
an individual, his spouse (other than a
spouse who is legally separated from the
individual under a decree of divorce or
separate maintenance), his children, his
grandchildren, and his parents as one in-
dividual, and aggregates shares owned by
those persons for purposes of determining
whether a loss corporation has an own-
ership change. Treasury and the IRS are
concerned that, under the current rules,
a change in the composition of a family
may be interpreted to cause an ownership
change.Treasury and the IRS believe
that, as in the case of a distribution from
aqualifiedtrust,whenachangeinfamily
composition does not change the ultimate
beneficial ownership of the loss corpora-
tion, it should not be taken into account
in determining whether a loss corporation
has an ownership change. For example,
a change in family composition that re-
sults from a marriage of two individuals
does not change the ultimate beneficial
ownership of the loss corporation and,
therefore, should not cause an ownership
change. Accordingly, Treasury and the
IRS intend to promulgate regulations to
address changes in family composition
that result from marriage, birth, adoption,
divorce, death, or other events in which
an individual joins or leaves a family. It
is anticipated that these regulations will
be electively retroactive on terms similar
to those applicable to the rules regarding
distributions from a qualified trust.
Special Analyses
It has been determined that this Trea-
sury decision is not a significant regula-
tory action as defined in Executive Order
12866. Therefore, a regulatory assessment
is not required. These temporary regula-
tions provide relief to qualifying loss cor-
porations that might be affected by an un-
intended consequence of the operation of
the statute. The regulations relieve a re-
striction on the ability of qualified trusts
that distribute interests in a loss corpora-
tion without causing an ownership change.
In addition, it is necessary to provide im-
mediate guidance to taxpayers. Accord-
ingly, good cause is found for dispensing
with prior notice and comment pursuant to
5 U.S.C. 553(b) and for dispensing with a
delayed effective date pursuant to 5 U.S.C.
553(d). For applicability of the Regula-
tory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. chapter 6),
see the notice of proposed rulemaking on
this subject in this issue of the Bulletin.
The IRS and Treasury request comments
from small entities that believe they might
be adversely affected by these regulations.
Pursuant to section 7805(f) of the Code,
these temporary regulations will be sub-
mitted to the Chief Counsel for Advocacy
of the Small Business Administration for
comment on their impact.

tions is Martin Huck, Office of Associate
Chief Counsel (Corporate).However,
other personnel from the IRS and Trea-
sury Department participated in their
development.

§1.382–10T Special rules for determining
time and manner of acquisition of an inter-
est in a loss corporation.
*****
Par. 3. Section 1.382–10T is added to
read as follows:
§1.382–10T Special rules for determining
time and manner of acquisition of an
interest in a loss corporation (temporary).
(a)Distributionsfromqualified
trusts—(1)In general.For purposes
of §1.382–2T, if a qualified trust described
in section 401(a) (qualified trust) dis-
tributes an ownership interest in an entity
(as defined in §1.382–3(a)(1)), then for
testing dates on or after the date of the
distribution, the distributed ownership
interest is treated as having been acquired
by the distributee on the date and in the
manner acquired by the trust and not as
having been acquired or disposed of by the
trust. The distribution does not cause the
day of the distribution to be a testing date.
(2)Accounting for dispositions—(i)
General rule. For purposes of this para-
graph (a), in order to determine which
ownership interest in an entity is dis-
tributed from a qualified trust, a loss
corporation must either specifically iden-
tify the ownership interests that are the
subject of all dispositions by the qualified
trust of ownership interests in an entity, or
apply the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method
to all such dispositions.
(ii)Special rules. For purposes of this
paragraph (a)(2):
(A) The FIFO method must be applied
on a class-by-class basis; and
(B) The term dispositions includes dis-
tributions, sales, and other transfers.
(3)Examples.The following exam-
ples illustrate the principles of this para-
graph (a). For purposes of these exam-
ples, unless otherwise stated, the nomen-
clature and assumptions of the examples
in §1.382–2T(b) apply, all corporations file
separate income tax returns on a calendar
year basis, the only 5-percent shareholder
of a loss corporation is a public group, and
the facts set forth the only acquisitions of
stock by any participants in a qualified plan
and the only owner shifts with respect to
the loss corporation during the testing pe-
riod. The examples are as follows:
Example 1—(i)Fa c t s. In 1994, E, a qualified trust
established u
nder Plan F, acquires 10 percent of L
stock. A is a participant in Plan F. On January 1, 2002,
A acquires 4 percent of L stock, and B, who is not a
participant or a beneficiary of a participant in Plan F,
acquires 5 percent of L stock. On January 1, 2004, E
distributes2percentofLstocktoA.OnJuly1,2004,
A acquires 1 percent of L stock.
(ii)Analysis. January 1, 2002, is a testing date be-
cause B’s acquisition of 5 percent of L stock causes an
increase in the percentage ownership of B, a 5-percent
shareholder. As of the close of that testing date, A is
treated as owning only 4 percent of L stock. There-
fore, A is treated as a member of the public group of
L. In addition, E is treated as owning 10 percent of L
stock that it acquired in 1994.
(iii) As a result of the application of paragraph
(a)(1) of this section to E’s distribution of 2 percent
of L stock to A on January 1, 2004, for testing dates
on and after January 1, 2004, A is treated as having
acquired that 2 percent interest in L in 1994, and E is
treated as having acquired only 8 percent of L stock in
1994. Because there are no owner shifts on January
1, 2004, that date is not a testing date.
(iv) July 1, 2004, is a testing date because on that
date A, a 5-percent shareholder, acquires 1 percent
of L stock. As of the close of that testing date, A’s
percentage of ownership of L stock is 7 percent, and
A’s lowest percentage of ownership of L stock a
tany
time within the testing period is 2 percent (deemed
acquired in 1994), representing an increase of 5 per-
centage points. In addition, as of the close
of July
1, 2004, B’s percentage of ownership of L stock is 5
percent, and B’s lowest percentage of ownership of L
stock at any time within the testing pe
riod is 0 per-
cent, representing an increase of 5 percentage points.
Thus, on July 1, 2004, L must take into account an in-
crease of 10 (5 + 5) percentage point
sindetermining
whether it has an ownership change.
Example 2—(i)Fac ts. E is a qualified trust estab-
lished under Plan F. L, a publicly t
raded corporation,
has 100x shares of stock outstanding. As of January
1, 2006, C owns 5x shares of L stock and is not a par-
ticipant or beneficiary of a p
articipant in Plan F. At
all times prior to January 1, 2006, E owns no L stock.
On January 1, 2006, E acquires 10x shares of L stock
from members of the public gr
oup of L. On December
1,2007,Edistributes5xsharesofLstocktosomeof
the participants in Plan F. No one participant acquires
all 5x shares as a result
of the distribution. On Feb-
ruary 1, 2008, C purchases 1x shares of L stock from
the public group of L.
(ii)Analysis.Because
E’s acquisition of 10x
shares of L stock on January 1, 2006, is an owner
shift, that date is a testing date. As of the close of
that date, E’s percen
tage of stock ownership in L has
increased by 10 percentage points.
(iii) As a result of the application of paragraph
(a)(1) of this secti
on to E’s distribution of 5x shares
of L stock to some Plan F participants on December 1,
2007, for testing dates on and after December 1, 2007,
those distribute
es are treated as having acquired those
shares of stock on January 1, 2006, from members of
the public group of L, and E is not treated as having
acquired those
shares on that date. E’s distribution
of the 5x shares is not an owner shift. Therefore,
December 1, 2007, is not a testing date.
(iv) February 1
, 2008, is a testing date because
on that date an owner shift results from C’s purchase
of 1x shares of L stock. As of the close of that test-
ing date, the d
istributees of 5x shares of L stock are
treated as members of the public group of L having
acquired 5x shares of L stock from other members of
the public group of L on January 1, 2006. Because
those acquisitions are not by 5-percent shareholders,
L does not take them into account. In addition, as of
the close of February 1, 2008, E’s percentage of stock
ownership in L is 5 percent, and E’s lowest percent-
age of stock ownership in L at any time within the
testing period is 0 percent, representing an increase
of 5 percentage points. In addition, as of the close of
February 1, 2008, C’s percentage of stock ownership
in L is 6 percent, and C’s lowest percentage of stock
ownership in L at any time within the testing period
is 5 percent, representing an increase of 1 percentage
point. Therefore, on February 1, 2008, L must take
into account an increase of 6 (5 + 1) percentage points
in determining whether it has an ownership change.
(4)Effective date—(i)General rule.
This section applies to all distributions
after June 27, 2003.
(ii)Retroactive application.Notwith-
standing paragraph (a)(4)(i) of this section,
a loss corporation may apply the rules of
this section retroactively to:
(A) All distributions on or before June
27, 2003, that are within a testing period
that includes June 27, 2003; or
(B) All distributions after December 31,
1986.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATI
ON:
Paperwork Reduction Act
The collection of inform
ation contained
in this final regulatio
n has been previously
reviewed and approved b
y the Office of
Management and Budget
in accordance
with the Paperwork Red
uction Act of 1995
(44 U.S.C. 3507(d)) under control number
1545–1617.
An agency may not conduct or sponsor,
and a person is not required to respond to, a
collection of information unless it displays
a valid control number assigned by the Of-
fice of Management and Budget.
The burden of complying with the col-
lection of information required to be re-
ported on Form 8865 is reflected in the bur-
den for Form 8865. The estimated number
of respondents is 5000. The estimated bur-
den for the 2001 Form 8865 per respondent
is 89 hours.
Comments concerning the accuracy
of this burden estimate and sugges-
tions for reducing this burden should
be sent to the Internal Revenue Service,
Attn:IRS Reports Clearance Officer,
W:CAR:MP:T:T:SPWashington,DC
20224, and to the Office of Manage-
ment and Budget, Attn: Desk Officer for
the Department of the Treasury, Office
of Information and Regulatory Affairs,
Washington, DC 20503.
Books or records relating to a collection
of information must be retained as long
as their contents might become material in
the administration of any internal revenue
law. Generally, tax returns and tax return
information are confidential, as required
by 26 U.S.C. 6103.
Background
On December 23, 2002, final and tem-
porary regulations (T.D. 9033, 2003–7
I.R.B. 483 [67 Fed. Reg. 78174]) relating
to the information reporting require-
ments for U.S. persons with interests
in controlled foreign partnerships we
re
published in theFederal Register.Th
e
temporary regulation addressed the f
iling
requirements that must be followed f
or
Form 8865 (Return of U.S. Persons Wi
th
Respect To Certain Foreign Partner
ships)
if a U.S. person is required to fi
le Form

artner-
ship that files Form 1065,U.S.

ships. On December 23, 2002,
anoticeof
proposed rulemaking and p
ublic hearing
(REG–124069–02, 2003–7 I
.R.B. 488 [67
Fed. Reg. 78202]) was als
o published in
theFederal Registerwi
th respect to the
provisions of the tempo
rary regulation.
No written or electron
ic comments were
received in response to the notice of pro-
posed rulemaking. No requests to speak
at the public hearing were received, and,
accordingly, the hearing was canceled.
Explanation of Provisions
This Treasury decision adopts the lan-
guage of the proposed regulation without
change other than to clarify that Treas.
Reg. §1.6038–3(j) as in effect prior to T.D.
9033 (see 26 CFR part 1 revised April 1,
2002) is applicable to tax years of a for-
eign partnership ending before December
23, 2002. The temporary regulation is re-
moved.
Special Analyses
It has been determined that this Trea-
sury decision is not a significant regula-
tory action as defined in Executive Order
12866. Therefore, a regulatory assessment
is not required. It has also been determined
that section 553(b) of the Administrative
Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. chapter 5) does
not apply to this regulation. It is hereby
certified that the collection of information
contained in this regulation will not have a
significant economic impact on a substan-
tial number of small entities. This certifi-
cation is based on the fact that the number
ofsmallentitiesthatwillberequiredtofile
the form is not substantial. The number
of small entities with interests in foreign
partnerships is not substantial; therefore,
this regulation will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number
of small entities. Additionally, this regu-
lation does not increase the reporting bur-
den for U.S. persons with interests in con-
trolled foreign partnerships. Accordingly,
a Regulatory Flexibility Analysis under the
Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. chap-
ter 6) is not required. Pursuant to section
7805(f) of the Internal Revenue Code, the
notice of proposed rulemaking preceding
this regulation was submitted to the Chief
Counsel for Advocacy of the Small Busi-
ness Administration for comment on its
impact on small business. Comments are
requested regarding the impact on small
businesses.

Associate Chief Counsel (

Part III. Administrative, Procedural, and Miscellaneous
26 CFR 601.203: Offers in Compromise.
(Also Part I, §§ 7122; 301.7122–1.)
Rev. Proc. 2003–71
SECTION 1. PURPOSE
The purpose of this revenue procedure
is to explain the procedures applicable to
the submission and processing of offers to
compromise a tax liability under section
7122 of the Internal Revenue Code. These
procedures reflect changes to the law made
by the Internal Revenue Service Restruc-
turing and Reform Act of 1998, Public
Law 105–206 (112 Stat. 685, 764).
SECTION 2. BACKGROUND
.01 Section 7122 permits the Secretary
of the Treasury or his delegate to compro-
mise any civil or criminal liability arising
under the internal revenue laws before the
case is referred to the Department of Jus-
tice for prosecution or defense.
.02 The Secretary has developed guide-
lines and procedures for the submission
and evaluation of offers to compromise un-
der section 7122. These guidelines can
be found in § 301.7122–1 of the Regu-
lations on Procedure and Administration,
the Internal Revenue Manual, and various
forms and publications issued by the Inter-
nal Revenue Service (Service). This rev-
enue procedure supplements and clarifies
the procedures identified in § 301.7122–1.
.03 This revenue procedure includes
provisions relating to the offer in com-
promise application fee, required under
§ 300.3 of the Regulations on User Fees
and effective November 1, 2003.
SECTION 3. SCOPE
This revenue procedure applies to all
offers to compromise a civil or criminal
liability under section 7122 submitted to
the Service, except for those offers submit-
ted directly to the Office of Appeals. This
revenue procedure does not apply to offers
to compromise a tax liability after a case
involving a civil or criminal liability has
been referred to the Department of Justice
for prosecution or defense.
SECTION4. SUBMITTINGANOFFER
TO COMPROMISE
.01 An offer to compromise a tax lia-
bility must be submitted in writing on the
Service’s Form 656,Offer in Compromise.
None of the standard terms may be stricken
or altered, and the form must be signed un-
der penalty of perjury. The offer should
include all liabilities to be covered by the
compromise, the legal grounds for com-
promise, the amount the taxpayer proposes
to pay, and the payment terms. Payment
terms include the amounts and due dates
of the payments. The offer should also
contain any other information required by
Form 656. The Service occasionally re-
vises Form 656 and may require offers to
be submitted on the most recent version of
the form. The most recent version of the
form and instructions are available on the
Service’s website atwww.irs.gov.
.02 An offer to compromise a tax liabil-
ity should set forth the legal grounds for
compromise and should provide enough
information for the Service to determine
whether the offer fits within its acceptance
policies.
(1) Doubt as to liability. Doubt as to li-
ability exists where there is a genuine dis-
pute as to the existence or amount of the
correct tax liability under the law. Doubt
as to liability does not exist where the lia-
bility has been established by a final court
decision or judgment concerning the exis-
tence of the liability.
An offer to compromise based on doubt
as to liability generally will be consid-
ered acceptable if it reasonably reflects the
amount the Service would expect to col-
lect through litigation. This analysis in-
cludes consideration of the hazards of lit-
igation that would be involved if the lia-
bility were litigated. The evaluation of the
hazards of litigation is not an exact science
and is within the discretion of the Service.
(2) Doubt as to collectibility. Doubt as
to collectibility exists in any case where
the taxpayer’s assets and income cannot
satisfy the full amount of the liability.
An offer to compromise based on doubt
as to collectibility generally will be con-
sidered acceptable if it is unlikely that the
tax can be collected in full and the offer
reasonably reflects the amount the Service
could collect through other means, includ-
ing administrative and judicial collection
remedies.SeePolicy Statement P–5–100.
This amount is the reasonable collection
potential of a case. In determining the
reasonable collection potential of a case,
the Service will take into account the tax-
payer’s reasonable basic living expenses.
In some cases, the Service may accept an
offer of less than the total reasonable col-
lection potential of a case if there are spe-
cial circumstances.
(3) Promotion of effective tax adminis-
tration.
(a) The Service may compromise
to promote effective tax administration
where it determines that, although collec-
tion in full could be achieved, collection
of the full liability would cause the tax-
payer economic hardship.Economic
hardship is defined as the inability to pay
reasonable basic living expenses.See
§ 301.6343–1(d). No compromise may be
enteredintoonthisbasis if compromise of
the liability would undermine compliance
by taxpayers with the tax laws.
An offer to compromise based on eco-
nomic hardship generally will be consid-
ered acceptable when, even though the tax
could be collected in full, the amount of-
fered reflects the amount the Service can
collect without causing the taxpayer eco-
nomic hardship. The determination to ac-
cept a particular amount will be based on
the taxpayer’s individual facts and circum-
stances.
(b) If there are no other grounds for
compromise, the Service may compromise
to promote effective tax administration
where compelling public policy or equity
considerations identified by the taxpayer
provide a sufficient basis for compro-
mising the liability. Compromise will be
justified only where, due to exceptional
circumstances, collection of the full lia-
bility would undermine public confidence
that the tax laws are being administered
in a fair and equitable manner. The tax-
payer will be expected to demonstrate
circumstances that justify compromise
even though a similarly situated taxpayer
may have paid his liability in full. No
compromise may be entered into on this
September 8, 20035172003-36 I.R.B.

basis if compromise of the liability would
undermine compliance by taxpayers with
the tax laws.
An offer to compromise based on com-
pelling public policy or equity considera-
tions generally will be considered accept-
able if it reflects what is fair and equi-
table under the particular facts and circum-
stances of the case.
.03 The offer should include all infor-
mation necessary to verify the grounds
for compromise.Except for offers to
compromise based solely on doubt as to li-
ability, this includes financial information
provided in a manner approved by the Ser-
vice. Individual or self-employed taxpay-
ers must submit a Form 433–A,Collection
Information Statement for Wage Earners
and Self-Employed Individuals, together
with any attachments or other documen-
tation required by the Service. Corporate
or other business taxpayers must submit
a Form 433–B,Collection Information
Statement for Businesses, together with
any attachments or other documentation
required by the Service. The Service may
require the corporate officers or individual
partners of a business taxpayer to com-
plete a Form 433–A.
.04 An offer to compromise a tax li-
ability should be mailed to the appropri-
ateaddresslistedonForm656. TheSer-
vice may, in its discretion, receive offers
to compromise in other manners. Simply
because the Service has received an offer
does not mean that it has accepted the offer
for processing such that the offer is consid-
ered pending within the meaning of section
6331(k)(1). Accepting an offer for pro-
cessing is addressed in Section 5.01 of this
revenue procedure.
.05 If a deposit is submitted with the of-
fer to compromise and the taxpayer autho-
rizes application of a deposit to tax liabil-
ities, it will be credited to the taxpayer’s
account as of the day the deposit is first re-
ceived.
SECTION 5. WHEN AN
OFFER
BECOMES PENDING
AND RETURN
OF OFFERS
.01 Section 6331(k)(1) generally pro-
hibits the Service from making a levy on
a taxpayer’s property or rights to property
while an offer to compromise a liability is
pending with the Service, for 30 days af-
ter the rejection of an offer to compromise,
or while an appeal of a rejection is pend-
ing. The statute of limitations on collec-
tion is suspended while levy is prohibited.
An offer to compromise becomes pending
when it is accepted for processing. The
Service accepts an offer to compromise for
processing when it determines that: the of-
fer is submitted on the proper version of
Form 656 and Form 433–A or B, as appro-
priate; the taxpayer is not in bankruptcy;
the taxpayer has complied with all filing
and payment requirements listed in the in-
structions to Form 656; the taxpayer has
enclosed the application fee, if required;
and the offer meets any other minimum
requirements established by the Service.
A determination that the offer meets these
minimum requirements means that the of-
fer is processable.
.02 A determination is made to accept
an offer to compromise for processing
when a Service official with delegated
authority to accept an offer for processing
signs the Form 656. The date the Service
official signs the Form 656 is recorded
on the Service’s computers. As of this
date, levy is prohibited unless the Service
determines that collection of the liability
is in jeopardy.
.03 If the Service determines that an
offer to compromise a liability does not
meet the minimum requirements the Ser-
vice has established for a processable offer,
the offer to compromise is not processable
and may be returned to the taxpayer. Be-
cause the offer to compromise was never
accepted for processing, it was never pend-
ing and levy was never prohibited.
.04 If an offer to compromise accepted
for processing does not contain suffi-
cient information to permit the Service
to evaluate whether the offer should be
accepted, the Service will request that the
taxpayer provide the needed additional in-
formation. These requests for information
are described in Section 6 below. If the
taxpayer does not submit the additional
information that the Service has requested
within a reasonable time period after such
a request, the Service may return the offer
to the taxpayer.The Service also may
return the offer after it has been accepted
for processing if:
(1) The Service determines that the of-
fer was submitted solely to delay collec-
tion;
(2) The taxpayer fails to file a return or
pay a liability;
(3) The taxpayer files for bankruptcy;
(4) The offer is no longer processable;
or
(5) The offer was accepted for process-
inginerror.
When an offer is returned under this
Section 5.04, the Service will not refund
the application fee submitted with the offer
unless the offer was accepted for process-
inginerror.
.05 If a determination is made to re-
turn the offer to compromise as described
in Sections 5.03 and 5.04, the return of
the offer does not constitute a rejection.
The taxpayer is not entitled to appeal the
matter to Appeals under the provisions of
§ 301.7122–1(f)(5). If the Service initiates
collection action following a return of an
offer to compromise, the taxpayer may be
able to appeal the collection action under
section 6320, section 6330, or under the
Collection Appeals Program.
.06 An offer to compromise is consid-
ered to be returned on the day the Service
mails, or personally delivers, a written let-
ter to the taxpayer informing the taxpayer
of the decision to return the offer. An of-
fer returned following acceptance for pro-
cessing is deemed pending only for the pe-
riod between the date the offer is accepted
for processing and the date the offer is re-
turned. The Service may levy to collect
the liability that was the subject of the of-
fer anytime after it returns the offer to the
taxpayer.
SECTION 6. CASE BUILDING,
INVESTIGATION, AND EVALUA
TION
.01 Once the Service accepts an offer
to compromise for processing, it begins to
gather the basic information necessary to
begin evaluating the offer. During this ini-
tial processing, the Service may contact
the taxpayer to secure information or doc-
umentation that was incorrect or omitted
from the offer documents.
.02 After all of the basic information
has been obtained from the taxpayer, the
Service evaluates the information and de-
termines whether the taxpayer’s offer is ac-
ceptable. In the course of evaluating the
offer to compromise, the Service may re-
quest additional information or documen-
tation from the taxpayer.
.03 The decision whether and when to
accept an offer to compromise a liability
is within the discretion of the Service. In
2003-36 I.R.B.518September 8, 2003

keeping with Policy Statement P–5-100,
an offer will only be accepted if it is deter-
mined to be in the best interest of both the
taxpayer and the Service. In addition to the
criteria discussed in Section 4.02, the Ser-
vice may take into account public policy
and tax administration concerns in deter-
mining whether an offer to compromise is
acceptable.
.04 For all offers to compromise, except
for those based solely on doubt as to liabil-
ity, the Service verifies the taxpayer’s in-
come and assets according to the Service’s
policies and procedures. Verification al-
lows the Service to determine whether or
not the taxpayer can fully pay the liabil-
ity and, if not, to determine the reasonable
collection potential of the liability.
(1) The Service uses a variety of sources
to verify the taxpayer’s valuation of the
taxpayer’s property.The Service relies
on internal sources, such as its computer
databases or other records, public and elec-
tronic sources, such as state motor vehicle
records and credit bureau reports, and tax-
payer supplied documentation.
(2) Section 7122 requires the Service
to prescribe and publish guidelines to en-
sure that taxpayers enteringintoacompro-
mise have an adequate means to provide
for basic living expenses. The amount of
basic living expenses will be determined
based on an evaluation of the individual
facts and circumstances presented by the
taxpayer’s case. The Service maintains a
schedule of national and local allowances
to account for the basic living expenses of
taxpayers seeking to compromise. To de-
termine whether an offer is adequate, the
Service uses these schedules to analyze the
income and expenses of the taxpayer to de-
termine the monthly income available to
pay the liability. These schedules are avail-
able in the FinancialAnalysis Handbook,
IRM 5.15, and on the Service’s website at
www.irs.gov. The schedules are not ap-
plied when doing so would leave the tax-
payer without adequate means to provide
for basic living expenses.
(3) For purposes of evaluating an of-
fer to compromise, the Service allows ex-
penses only to the extent it determines they
are necessary for the health and welfare of
the taxpayer or the taxpayer’s family or are
necessary for the production of income.
SECTION 7. WITHDRAWING AN
OFFER TO COMPROMISE
.01 The taxpayer may withdraw an offer
to compromise a liability anytime prior to
acceptance of the offer. An offer that has
been withdrawn is no longer pending and
the Service may levy to collect the liability
that was the subject of the offer. When
an offer is withdrawn the Service will not
refund the application fee submitted with
the offer.
.02 The taxpayer may withdraw an of-
fer to compromise by delivery of written
notification of the withdrawal in person,
by mail, or by fax. An offer assigned to
Centralized Offer in Compromise Units,
however, may not be withdrawn by per-
sonal delivery, because documents cannot
be personally delivered to these units. A
taxpayer may also request withdrawal of
an offer telephonically. A notice of intent
to withdraw an offer should be directed to
the Service office assigned to the case.
(1) If the taxpayer withdraws an offer
to compromise by personal delivery, t
he
offer will be considered withdrawn wh
en
written notification of the withdra
wal is
received by the Service.
(2) If the taxpayer withdraws an offe
r
to compromise by mailing written
notifi-
cation of the withdrawal via U.S
. certified
mail, the offer will be conside
red with-
drawnonthedatetheServicere
ceives the
certified mail.
(3) In all other cases, includi
ng with-
drawal by non-certified mail
,fax,or
phone, the offer will be co
nsidered with-
drawn on the date the Servi
ce mails, or
personally delivers, a w
ritten letter to the
taxpayer acknowledging
the withdrawal.
SECTION8. ACCEPTINGANO
FFER
TO COMPROMISE
.01 An offer to compromise has not
been accepted until the Service issues writ-
ten notification of acceptance to the tax-
payer. Acceptance is effective as of the
date on the acceptance letter.
.02 Acceptance of an offer to compro-
mise will conclusively settle the liability of
the taxpayer specified in the offer. Com-
promise with one taxpayer does not extin-
guish the liability of any person not named
in the offer who is also liable for the tax to
which the offer relates. The Service may
take action to collect from any person not
namedintheoffer.
SECTION 9. REJECTING AN OFFER
TO COMPROMISE
.01 An offer to compromise has not
been rejected until the Service issues writ-
ten notification of rejection to the taxpayer.
Section 7122(d) requires the Service to
conduct an independent administrative re-
view before the rejection of an offer to
compromise is communicated to the tax-
payer. The Service reviews each case to
determine if the proposed rejection is rea-
sonable based on the facts and circum-
stances of the case. Rejection is effective
as of the date on the rejection letter. When
an offer is rejected the Service will not re-
fund the application fee submitted with the
offer.
.02 The taxpayer may appeal the rejec-
tion of an offer to compromise to Appeals.
The taxpayer must timely file the appeal
with the Service office that rejected the of-
fer. An appeal is timely filed if it is deliv-
ered to the Service or postmarked within
thirty days from the date of the letter of re-
jection.
.03 Pursuant to section 6331, the Ser-
vice may not make a levy on the taxpayer’s
property or rights to property for thirty
days following the rejection of an offer to
compromise or while an appeal of a rejec-
tion is pending.

Part IV. Items of General Interest
Notice of Proposed Rulemaking
At-Risk Limitations; Interest
Other Than That of a Creditor
REG–209377–89
AGENCY:InternalRevenueService
(IRS), Treasury.
ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking.
SUMMARY: This document contains pro-
posed regulations relating to the treatment,
for purposes of the at-risk limitations, of
amounts borrowed from a person who has
an interest in an activity other than that of
a creditor or from a person related to a per-
son (other than the borrower) with such an
interest. Proposed regulations published in
1979 provide that amounts borrowed from
a person who has an interest in an activ-
ity other than that of a creditor do not in-
crease the amount at risk in certain enu-
merated activities. These proposed regu-
lations extend this rule to all activities sub-
ject to the at-risk limitations. In addition,
the rule is conformed to the current statu-
tory language providing for its application
to amounts borrowed from persons related
to a person (other than the borrower) with
an interest other than that of a creditor.
These proposed regulations affect taxpay-
ers subject to the at-risk limitations and
provide them with guidance necessary to
comply with the law.
DATES: Written or electronic comments
and requests for a public hearing must be
received no later than October 6, 2003.
ADDRESSES: Send submissions to:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
This document proposes amendments
to 26 CFR part 1 to provide additional rules
under section 465 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986 (Code), as amended. Section
465wasaddedtotheCodebysection204
of the Tax Reform Act of 1976 (Public Law
94–455, 90 Stat. 1531). Section 465 limits
the deductibility of losses to a taxpayer’s
economic investment (the amount at risk)
in the activity at the close of a taxable year.
A taxpayer is generally considered at risk
in an activity to the extent of cash and the
adjusted basis of property contributed by
the taxpayer to the activity. In general, a
taxpayer’s amount at risk also includes any
amounts borrowed for use in the activity
if the taxpayer is personally liable for re-
payment or if property other than property
used in the activity is pledged as security.
As originally enacted, section 465 ap-
plied to certain enumerated activities de-
scribed in section 465(c)(1) (old activi-
ties). Subsequent amendments made by
section 201 of the Revenue Act of 1978
(Public Law 95–600, 92 Stat. 2814) ex-
tended the at-risk rules to other activities
described in section 465(c)(3)(A) (new ac-
tivities).
On June 5, 1979, the IRS published in
theFederal Register(44 FR 32235) pro-
posed regulations (LR–166–76) relating to
the treatment of investments in old activ-
ities under section 465 of the Code (the
previously proposed regulations). Section
1.465–8 of the previously proposed reg-
ulations provides that amounts borrowed
by a taxpayer for use in an old activity do
not increase the taxpayer’s amount at risk
if the lender has an interest in the activ-
ity other than that of a creditor. Section
1.465–20 of the previously proposed reg-
ulations provides rules for the treatment
of amounts borrowed from certain persons
and amounts protected against loss. This
document proposes to amend §§1.465–8
and 1.465–20 of the previously proposed
regulations.
Explanation of Provisions
I. Application of Section 465(b)(3) to New
Activities
Under section 465(b)(3), amounts bor-
rowed for use in an activity will not in-
crease the borrower’s amount at risk in the
activity if the lender has an interest other
than that of a creditor in the activity (a dis-
qualifying interest) or if the lender is re-
lated to a person (other than the borrower)
who has a disqualifying interest in the ac-
tivity. The rule applies even if the borrower
is personally liable for the repayment of
the loan or the loan is secured by property
notusedintheactivity.
Section 465(c)(3)(D) provides that sec-
tion 465(b)(3) will apply to new activities
only to the extent provided in regulations
prescribed by the Secretary. The Tax Court
inAlexander v. Commissioner,95T.C.
467 (1990), held that, until regulations are
issued, section 465(b)(3) cannot be ap-
plied to a new activity. These proposed
regulations will apply section 465(b)(3)
to the new activities described in section
465(c)(3)(A).
II. Related Persons
As originally enacted, section 465(b)(3)
also applied to any borrowing from per-
sons related to the taxpayer under section
267(b). Section 432(c) of the Deficit Re-
duction Act of 1984 (Public Law 98–369,
98 Stat. 814) eliminated this rule but pro-
vided, instead, that a taxpayer’s amount at
risk is not increased by amounts borrowed
from a person related to a person (other
than the taxpayer) who has a disqualify-
ing interest in the activity. These proposed
regulations change §1.465–20 of the pre-
viously proposed regulations to reflect the
amendment made by the Deficit Reduction
Act of 1984.
III. Scope of §1.465–8
These proposed regulations modify the
previously proposed regulations to reflect
section 465(b)(3)(B)(ii), which provides
that, for purposes of determining a cor-
poration’s amount at risk, an interest as a
September 8, 20035212003-36 I.R.B.

shareholder is not a disqualifying interest.
Thus, amounts borrowed by a corporation
from its shareholders may increase the cor-
poration’s amount at risk.
These proposed regulations also modify
the previously proposed regulations to re-
flect section 465(b)(6)(A), which provides
that “qualified nonrecourse financing,” if
borrowed for use in an activity of hold-
ing real property and secured by real prop-
erty used in the activity, is not subject to
the limitations of section 465(b)(3). In ad-
dition, these proposed regulations expand
the exception to include financing that, if it
were nonrecourse, would be financing de-
scribed in section 465(b)(6)(B). This ex-
pansion of the exception ensures that re-
course financing is treated no worse than
qualified nonrecourse financing.
Proposed Effective Date
The new rules in these regulations are
proposed to be applicable to amounts bor-
rowed after the rules are published as final
regulations in theFederal Register.
Special Analyses
It has been determined that this notice
of proposed rulemaking is not a significant
regulatory action as defined in Executive
Order 12866. Therefore, a regulatory as-
sessment is not required. It also has been
determined that section 553(b) of the Ad-
ministrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. chap-
ter 5) does not apply to these regulations
and, because these regulations do not im-
pose on small entities a collection of infor-
mation requirement, the Regulatory Flex-
ibility Act (5 U.S.C. chapter 6) does not
apply. Therefore, a Regulatory Flexibility
Analysis is not required. Pursuant to sec-
tion 7805(f) of the Code, this notice of pro-
posed rulemaking will be submitted to the
Chief Counsel for Advocacy of the Small
Business Administration for comment on
its impact on small business.
Comments and Requests for Public
Hearing
Before these proposed re
gulations are
adopted as final regul
ations, consideration
will be given to any wr
itten (a signed orig-
inal and 8 copies) or e
lectronic comments
that are submitted t
imelytotheIRS.The
IRS and Treasury Dep
artment request
comments on the clarity of the proposed
rules and how they can be made easier to
understand. All comments will be avail-
able for public inspection and copying.
A public hearing will be scheduled if
requested in writing by any person that
timely submits written comments.If a
public hearing is scheduled, notice of the
date, time, and place for the public hearing
will be published in theFederal Register.
Drafting Information
The principal authors of these pro-
posed regulations are Tara P. Volungis
and Christopher L. Trump of the Office
of Associate Chief Counsel (Passthroughs
and Special Industries). Other personnel
from Treasury and the IRS participated in
their development.

Proposed Amendments to the
Regulations
Accordingly, 26 CFR part 1, which was
proposed at 44 FR 32235 (June 5, 1979),
is proposed to be amended as follows:
PA RT 1 — I N C O M E TA X E S
Paragraph 1. The authority citation for
part1isamendedbyaddingentriesinnu-
merical order to read in part as follows:
Authority: 26 U.S.C. 7805. * * *

U.S.C. 465. * * *
Section 1.465–20 also issued under 26
U.S.C. 465. * * *
Par. 2. Section 1.465–8, as proposed at
44 FR 32238 (June 5, 1979), is amended
as follows:
1. Paragraphs (a) and (b)(1) are revised.
2. The last sentence of paragraph (c)(1)
is revised.
3. The second sentence of paragraph
(d)(1) is revised.
4. Paragraph (e) is added.
The revisions and additions read as fol-
lows:
§1.465–8 General rules; interest other
than that of a creditor.
(a)In general—(1)Amou
nts borrowed.
This section applies t
o amounts borrowed
for use in an activity d
escribed in section
465(c)(1)or(c)(3)(
A). Amounts borrowed
with respect to an activity will not increase
the borrower’s amount at risk in the activ-
ity if the lender has an interest in the activ-
ity other than that of a creditor or is related
to a person (other than the borrower) who
has an interest in the activity other than that
of a creditor. This rule applies even if the
borrower is personally liable for the repay-
ment of the loan or the loan is secured by
property not used in the activity. For ad-
ditional rules relating to the treatment of
amounts borrowed from these persons, see
§1.465–20.
(2)Certain borrowed amounts ex-
cepted. (i) For purposes of determining a
corporation’s amount at risk, an interest in
the corporation as a shareholder is not an
interest in any activity of the corporation.
Thus, amounts borrowed by a corporation
from a shareholder may increase the cor-
poration’s amount at risk.
(ii) For purposes of determining a tax-
payer’samountatriskinanactivityof
holding real property, paragraph (a)(1) of
this section does not apply to financing that
is secured by real property used in the ac-
tivity and is either—
(A) Qualified nonrecourse financing
described in section 465(b)(6)(B); or
(B) Financing that, if it were nonre-
course, would be financing described in
section 465(b)(6)(B).
(b)Loans for which the borrower is per-
sonally liable for repayment—(1)General
rule. If a borrower is personally liable for
the repayment of a loan for use in an activ-
ity, a person shall be considered a person
with an interest in the activity other than
that of a creditor only if the person has ei-
ther a capital interest in the activity or an
interest in the net profits of the activity.

Notice of Proposed Rulemaking
by Cross-Reference to Temporary
Regulations and Notice of Public
Hearing
Distributions of Interests in a
Loss Corporation From Qualified
Trusts
REG–108676–03
AGENCY:InternalRevenueService
(IRS), Treasury.
ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking
by cross-reference to temporary regula-
tions and notice of public hearing.
SUMMARY: This document contains
proposed regulations under section 382 of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. The
proposed regulations affect loss corpora-
tions and provide guidance on whether a
loss corporation has an ownership change
where a qualified trust described in section
401(a) distributes an ownership interest
in an entity. The text of the temporary
regulations (T.D. 9063 on page 510.) pub-
lished in this issue of the Bulletin serves
as the text of these proposed regulations.
DATES: Written or electronic comments
and requests for a public hearing must be
received by September 25, 2003.
ADDRESSES: Send submissions to:
CC:ITA:RU (REG–108676–03),room
5207, Internal Revenue Service, POB
7604, Ben Franklin Station, Washing-
ton, DC 20044.Submissions may be
hand-delivered Monday through Friday
between the hours of 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. to:
CC:ITA:RU (REG–108676–03), Courier's
Desk, Internal Revenue Service, 1111
Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington,
DC. Alternatively, taxpayers may submit
electronic comments directly to the IRS
Internet site atwww.irs.gov/regs.
FORFURTHERINFORMATION
CONTACT: Concerning the proposed reg-
ulations, Martin Huck, (202) 622–7750;
concerning submissions of comments
and/or requests for a public hearing,
Treena Garrett, (202) 622–3401 (not
toll-free numbers).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background and Explanation of
Provisions
Temporary regulations in this issue of
the Bulletin amend the Income Tax Regu-
lations (26 CFR part 1) relating to section
382. The temporary regulations provide
rules for determining whether a loss cor-
poration has an ownership change where a
qualified trust described in section 401(a)
distributes an ownership interest in an en-
tity. The text of those regulations also
serves as the text of these proposed regula-
tions. The preamble to the temporary regu-
lations explains the amendments and these
proposed regulations.
Special Analyses
It has been determined that this notice
of proposed rulemaking is not a signifi-
cant regulatory action as defined in Execu-
tive Order 12866. Therefore, a regulatory
assessment is not required. It is hereby
certified that these proposed regulations
will not have a significant economic im-
pact on a substantial number of small enti-
ties. This certification is based on the fact
that the regulations provide relief to qual-
ifying loss corporations that might be af-
fected by an unintended consequence of
the operation of the statute. Therefore, a
Regulatory Flexibility Analysis under the
Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. chap-
ter 6) is not required. Nevertheless, the
IRS and Treasury request comments from
small entities that believe they might be ad-
versely affected by these regulations. Pur-
suant to section 7805(f) of the Code, this
notice of proposed rulemaking will be sub-
mitted to the Chief Counsel for Advocacy
of the Small Business Administration for
comment on their impact.
Comments and Requests for a Public
Hearing
Before these proposed regulations are
adopted as final regulations, consideration
will be given to any written comments
(a signed original and eight (8) copies)
or electronic comments that are submitted
timely to the IRS. All comments will be
available for public inspection and copy-
ing. A public hearing may be scheduled
if requested in writing by any person that
September 8, 20035232003-36 I.R.B.

timely submits written comments.If a
public hearing is scheduled, notice of the
date, time, and place for the hearing will
be published in the Federal Register.
Drafting Information
The principal author of these regula-
tions is Martin Huck, Office of Associate
Chief Counsel (Corporate).However,
other personnel from the IRS and Trea-
sury Department participated in their
development.

Definition of Terms
Revenue rulings and revenue procedures
(hereinafter referred to as “rulings”) that
have an effect on previous rulings use the
following defined terms to describe the ef-
fect:
Amplifieddescribes a situation where
no change is being made in a prior pub-
lished position, but the prior position is be-
ingextendedtoapplytoavariationofthe
fact situation set forth therein. Thus, if
an earlier ruling held that a principle ap-
plied to A, and the new ruling holds that the
same principle also applies to B, the earlier
ruling is amplified. (Compare withmodi-
fied,below).
Clarifiedis used in those instances
where the language in a prior ruling is
being made clear because the language
has caused, or may cause, some confusion.
It is not used where a position in a prior
ruling is being changed.
Distinguisheddescribes a situation
where a ruling mentions a previously pub-
lished ruling and points out an essential
difference between them.
Modifiedis used where the substance
of a previously published position is being
changed. Thus, if a prior ruling held that a
principle applied to A but not to B, and the
new ruling holds that it applies to both A
and B, the prior ruling is modified because
it corrects a published position. (Compare
withamplifiedandclarified,above).
Obsoleteddescribes a previously pub-
lished ruling that is not considered deter-
minative with respect to future transac-
tions. This term is most commonly used in
a ruling that lists previously published rul-
ings that are obsoleted because of changes
in laws or regulations. A ruling may also
be obsoleted because the substance has
been included in regulations subsequently
adopted.
Revokeddescribes situations where the
position in the previously published ruling
is not correct and the correct position is
beingstatedinanewruling.
Supersededdescribes a situation where
the new ruling does nothing more than re-
state the substance and situation of a previ-
ously published ruling (or rulings). Thus,
the term is used to republish under the
1986 Code and regulations the same po-
sition published under the 1939 Code and
regulations. The term is also used when
it is desired to republish in a single rul-
ing a series of situations, names, etc., that
were previously published over a period of
time in separate rulings. If the new rul-
ing does more than restate the substance
of a prior ruling, a combination of terms
is used. For example,modifiedandsu-
persededdescribes a situation where the
substance of a previously published ruling
is being changed in part and is continued
without change in part and it is desired to
restate the valid portion of the previously
published ruling in a new ruling that is self
contained. In this case, the previously pub-
lished ruling is first modified and then, as
modified, is superseded.
Supplementedis used in situations in
which a list, such as a list of the names of
countries, is published in a ruling and that
list is expanded by adding further names in
subsequent rulings. After the original rul-
ing has been supplemented several times, a
new ruling may be published that includes
the list in the original ruling and the ad-
ditions, and supersedes all prior rulings in
the series.
Suspendedis used in rare situations
to show that the previous published rul-
ings will not be applied pending some
future action such as the issuance of new
or amended regulations, the outcome of
cases in litigation, or the outcome of a
Service study.
