The regulations provide guidance to responsible IRS personnel and authorized recipients as to these administrative procedures. DATES: Effective Date: These regulations are effective on February 11, 2009. Applicability Date: These regulations apply to all authorized recipients of returns and return information that are subject to the safeguard requirements set forth in section 6103(p)(4) on or after February 11, 2009. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Wendy L. Kribell, (202) 622–4570 (not a toll-free number). Background This document contains final regulations amending the Procedure and Administration Regulations (26 CFR Part 301) under section 6103(p)(4), (p)(7), and (q) of the Internal Revenue Code (Code). Section 6103 protects returns and return information from disclosure except to certain government agencies and other authorized recipients, including State tax agencies as provided in section 6103(d). Section 6103(p)(4) provides that certain authorized recipients must establish procedures satisfactory to the IRS for safeguarding the returns and return information. The IRS reviews, on a regular basis, safeguards established by these authorized recipients. If the IRS determines that an authorized recipient has failed to maintain adequate safeguards or has made any unauthorized inspections or disclosures of returns or return information, section 6103(p)(4) authorizes the IRS to terminate or suspend disclosure of returns and return information to the authorized recipient until the IRS is satisfied that adequate steps have been taken to ensure adequate safeguards or prevent additional unauthorized inspections or disclosures. Section 6103(p)(7) requires the Secretary to prescribe regulations providing for administrative review of an IRS determination that a State tax agency has failed to meet the safeguarding requirements. Former § 301.6103(p)(7)-1 contained procedures to allow State tax agencies, prior to a suspension or termination of disclosure, to appeal a preliminary finding by the IRS of inadequate safeguards or E:\FR\FM\11FER1.SGM 11FER1

    Authority: 26 U.S.C. 7805 * * *

0

Sec.  1.1502-13  Intercompany transactions.

* * * * *
    (g) * * *
    (3) * * *
    (i) * * *
    (B) * * * In making this determination, if a creditor or debtor 
realizes an amount in a transaction in which a creditor assigns all or 
part of its rights under an intercompany obligation to the debtor, or a 
debtor assigns all or part of its obligations under an intercompany 
obligation to the creditor, the transaction will be treated as an 
extinguishment and will be excepted from the definition of ``triggering 
transaction'' only if either of the exceptions in paragraphs 
(g)(3)(i)(B)(5) or (6) of this section apply. * * *
    (1) * * *
    (vi) The stock of the transferee member (or a higher-tier member 
other than a higher-tier member of an 80-percent chain that includes 
the transferor and transferee) is disposed of within 12 months from the 
assignment of the intercompany obligation, unless at the time of the 
assignment, the transferor member, transferee member (or in the case of 
successive section 351 exchanges, each transferor and transferee 
member) and the debtor member are all in the same 80-percent chain; and 
all of the stock of the transferee (or in the case of successive 
section 351 exchanges, the lowest-tier transferee) held by members of 
the group is disposed of as part of the same plan or arrangement, 
either directly or indirectly, to persons that are not members of the 
group.
* * * * *
    (7) * * *
    (ii) * * *

    Example 4. * * *
    (ii) No deemed satisfaction and reissuance. Because the 
assignment of the B note is an exchange to which section 351 applies 
and neither S nor B recognize gain or loss, the transaction is not a 
triggering transaction under paragraph (g)(3)(i)(B)(1) of this 
section, and the note is not treated as satisfied and reissued under 
paragraph (g)(3)(ii) of this section.
* * * * *
    (iv) Transferee loss subject to limitation. * * *
* * * * *
    Example 5. * * *
    (i) * * * The terms and conditions of the note are not modified 
in connection with the sales transaction, the transaction does not 
result in a change in payment expectations, and no amount of income, 
gain, deduction, or loss is recognized by S, B, or T with respect to 
the note.
