(1) Any transfer of an interest in property consisting of a life estate, a remainder, a reversionary interest, or the release of a life estate to other than a remainderman, which is subject to taxation pursuant to Item S of T.C.A. §67-4102, is to be valued as follows:

(a) If the interest is the right of a person, for his life, or for the life of another person, to use non-income producing property, or to receive the income of certain property, the value of the interest is obtained by multiplying the value of the property by the figure in column (3) of Table A (1) or A (2), whichever is appropriate, appearing at 26 C.F.R. §20.2031 - 10 (f) opposite the number of years nearest to the actual age of the measuring life.

(b) If the interest is the release of the right of a person for his life or for the life of another person to a person other than a remainderman, to use non-income producing property or to receive the value of certain property, the value of the interest is obtained by multiplying the value of the property by the figure in column (3) of Table A (1) or A (2), whichever is appropriate, appearing at 26 C.F.R. 20.2031-10 (f) opposite the number of years nearest to the actual age of the measuring life.

(c) If the interest is a remainder or reversionary interest in property, the value of the interest is obtained by multiplying the value of the property by the figure in column (4) of Table A (1) or A (2), whichever is appropriate, appearing at 26 C.F.R. §20.2031-10 (f) opposite the number of years nearest to the actual age of the person whose life measures the preceding estate.

(2) The filing of an instrument evidencing the transfer of an interest in property consisting of a life estate, release of a life estate to a person other than a remainderman, or a transfer of a remainder or a reversionary interest, which is subject to taxation, pursuant to Item S of Section 67-4102, shall be accompanied by an affidavit, made under oath and signed by the grantee, which shall state, as of the date of the filing with the register of the county, the following:

(a) The value of the property;

(b) The number of years nearest to the actual age of measuring life, or the number of years nearest to the actual age of the person whose life estate measures the preceding estate, whichever is appropriate; and
