Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 246 / Friday, December 22, 2006 / Rules and Regulations
controlled group of corporations. In
general, those amendments are effective
for taxable years ending on or after
December 31, 1970.
(2) Limited nonretroactivity. (i) Under
the authority of section 7805(b), the
Internal Revenue Service will treat an
old group as a brother-sister controlled
group corporations for purposes of
applying sections 401, 404(a), 408(k),
409A, 410, 411, 412, 414, 415, and 4971
of the Code and sections 202, 203, 204,
and 302 of the Employment Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) in
a plan year or taxable year beginning
before March 2, 1988, to the extent
necessary to prevent an adverse effect
on any old member (or any other
corporation), or on any plan or other
entity described in such sections
(including plans, etc., of corporations
not part of such old group), that would
result solely from the retroactive effect
of the amendment to this section by TD
8179. An adverse effect includes the
disqualification of a plan or the
disallowance of a deduction or credit for
a contribution to a plan. The Internal
Revenue Service, however, will not treat
an old member as a member of an old
group to the extent that such treatment
will have an adverse effect on that old
member.
(ii) Section 7805(b) will not be
applied pursuant to paragraph (d)(2)(i)
of this section to treat an old member of
an old group as a member of a brothersister controlled group to prevent an
adverse effect for a taxable year if, for
that taxable year, that old member treats
or has treated itself as not being a
member of that old group for purposes
of sections 401, 404(a), 408(k), 409A,
410, 411, 412, 414, 415, and 4971 of the
Code and sections 202, 203, 204, and
302 and Title IV of ERISA for such
taxable year (such as by filing, with
respect to such taxable year, a return,
amended return, or claim for credit or
refund in which the amount of any
deduction, credit, limitation, or tax due
is determined by treating itself as not
being a member of the old group for
purposes of those sections). However,
the fact that one or more (but not all) of
the old members do not qualify for
section 7805(b) treatment because of the
preceding sentence will not preclude
that old member (or members) from
being treated as a member of the old
group under paragraph (d)(2)(i) of this
section in order to prevent the
disallowance of a deduction or credit of
another old member (or other
corporation) or to prevent the
disqualification of, or other adverse
effect on, another old member’s plan (or
other entity) described in the sections of

the Code and ERISA enumerated in
such paragraph.
(3) Election of general
nonretroactivity. In the case of a taxable
year ending on or after December 31,
1970, and before March 2, 1988, an old
group will be treated as a brother-sister
controlled group of corporations for all
purposes of the Code for such taxable
year if—
(i) Each old member files a statement
consenting to such treatment for such
taxable year with the District Director
having audit jurisdiction over its return
within six months after March 2, 1988;
and
(ii) No old member—
(A) Files or has filed, with respect to
such taxable year, a return, amended
return, or claim for credit or refund in
which the amount of any deduction,
credit, limitation, or tax due is
determined by treating any old member
as not a member of the old group; or
(B) Treats the employees of all
members of the old group as not being
employed by a single employer for
purposes of sections 401, 404(a), 408(k),
409A, 410, 411, 412, 414, 415, and 4971
of the Code and sections 202, 203, 204,
and 302 of ERISA for such taxable year.
(4) Definitions. For purposes of this
paragraph (d)—
(i) An old group is a brother-sister
controlled group of corporations,
determined by applying paragraph
(a)(3)(ii) of this section as in effect
before the amendments made by
Treasury decision 8179, that is not a
brother-sister controlled group of
corporations, determined by applying
paragraph (a)(3)(ii) of this section as
amended by such Treasury decision;
and
(ii) An old member is any corporation
that is a member of an old group.
(5) Election to choose between
membership in more than one
controlled group. If—
(i) An old member has filed an
election under paragraph (c)(2) of this
section to be treated as a component
member of an old group for a December
31 before March 2, 1988; and
(ii) That corporation would (without
regard to such paragraph) be a
component member of more than one
brother-sister controlled group (not
including an old group) on the
December 31, that corporation may
make an election under that paragraph
by filing an amended return on or before
September 2, 1988. This paragraph
(d)(5) does not apply to a corporation
that is treated as a member of an old
group under paragraph (d)(3) of this
section.

any amended return filed on or before

after May 30, 2006.
(2) Expiration date. The applicability
of paragraphs (a), (b), (c)(1), (c)(2)(iv)
and (d) of this section will expire on
December 21 2009. The applicability of
