Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 186 / Wednesday, September 26, 2007 / Proposed Rules
is a reportable transaction for A under
paragraph (b)(7) of this section because A has
the right to payment for another person’s use
of the tax planning method that is the subject
of the patent. The transaction is a reportable
transaction for C under paragraph (b)(7) of
this section, because C paid a fee to A for the
legal right to use a tax planning method that
C knew or had reason to know was the
subject of a patent. A has participated in the
transaction in the year in which A’s tax
return reflects a tax benefit in relation to
obtaining the patent or reflects income from
C’s payment to A for the legal right to use
the tax planning method that is the subject
of the patent. C has participated in the
transaction in the year in which C’s tax
return reflects the deduction for any amount
paid to A for the legal right to use the tax
planning method that is the subject of the
patent. C also participates in the transaction
for any years for which any other tax benefit
from the transaction is reflected on C’s tax
return.
Example 5. (i) A, an individual, is the
employee of B, a corporation. A creates a tax
planning method and applies for a U.S.
patent but B pays the fee required under title
35 of the United States Code for A’s patent
application. Pursuant to A’s employment
contract with B, B holds all substantial rights
to the patent. B’s tax return reflects a
deduction for the amount paid in relation to
obtaining the patent.
(ii) A and B are patent holders under
paragraph (b)(7)(ii)(C)(1) and (3) of this
section, respectively. The transaction is not
a reportable transaction for A under
paragraph (b)(7) of this section because A
does not have the right to payment for
another person’s use of the tax planning
method that is the subject of the patent. The
transaction is a reportable transaction for B
under paragraph (b)(7) of this section because
B holds all substantial rights to the patent
and has the right to payment for another
person’s use of the tax planning method that
is the subject of the patent. B has participated
in the transaction in the year in which B’s
tax return reflects a tax benefit in relation to
obtaining the patent. B also participates in
the transaction for any years for which B’s
tax return reflects income from a payment
received from another person for the use of
the tax planning method that is the subject
of the patent.
Example 6. (i) Assume the facts as in
Example 4, except that A agrees to license
the patent to F, a financial institution. The
license agreement between A and F provides
that F may offer the tax planning method to
its clients and if a client decides to use the
tax planning method, F must pay A for each
client’s use of the tax planning method. F
offers the tax planning method to G who uses
the tax planning method and knows or has
reason to know it is the subject of a patent.
F charges G for financial planning services
and pays A for G’s use of the tax planning
method. A’s tax return reflects income from
the payment received from F. F’s tax return
reflects income from the payment received
from G, and G’s tax return reflects a
deduction for the fees paid to F.
(ii) F is a patent holder’s agent under
paragraph (b)(7)(ii)(D) of this section because

Jkt 211001
F has the permission of the patent holder to
offer for sale or exchange, to sell or exchange,
or to market a tax planning method that is
the subject of a patent. F also is a patent
holder’s agent under paragraph (b)(7)(ii)(D) of
this section because F receives (directly or
indirectly) a fee in any amount for a tax
planning method that is the subject of a
patent for or on behalf of a patent holder. The
transaction is a reportable transaction for
both A and F under paragraph (b)(7) of this
section because A and F each have the right
to payment for another person’s use of the tax
planning method that is the subject of the
patent. The transaction is a reportable
transaction for G under paragraph (b)(7) of
this section because G paid a fee (directly or
indirectly) to a patent holder or a patent
holder’s agent for the legal right to use a tax
planning method that G knew or had reason
to know was the subject of the patent. A has
participated in the transaction in the years in
which A’s tax return reflects income from the
payment received from F for G’s use of the
tax planning method that is the subject of the
patent. F has participated in the transaction
in the years in which F’s tax return reflects
income from the payment received from G for
use of the tax planning method that is the
subject of the patent. G has participated in
the transaction in the years in which G’s tax
return reflects a deduction for the fees paid
to F. G also participates in the transaction for
any years for which any other tax benefit
from the transaction is reflected on G’s tax
return.
Example 7. Assume the same facts as in
Example 4. J uses a tax planning method that
is the same as the tax planning method that
is the subject of A’s patent. J does not pay
any fees to any patent holder or patent
holder’s agent with respect to the tax
planning method that is the subject of the
patent. A sues J for infringement of the patent
and J pays A an amount for damages. A’s tax
return reflects as income the amounts for
damages received from J. The transaction is
not a reportable transaction for J under
paragraph (b)(7) of this section because J did
not pay any fees (as defined in paragraph
(b)(7)(ii)(A) of this section) (directly or
indirectly) to a patent holder or patent
holder’s agent for the legal right to use a tax
planning method that J knew or had reason
to know was the subject of the patent. A has
participated in a reportable transaction under
paragraph (b)(7) of this section in the year in
which A’s tax return reflects income from a
payment (the amount received as an award
for damages in a suit for damages for
infringement of the patent) received from
another person for the use of the tax planning
method that is the subject of a patent.
