engaged in an act of self-dealing.
Correction and correct. The terms

Initial Taxes on Self-Dealers
Disqualified person. The term “disqualified
person” means a person who is:
1. A contributor to the fund.
2. A trustee of the fund.
An initial tax of 10% of the amount involved
(defined later) is imposed on each act of
self-dealing between a disqualified person
and a nuclear decommissioning fund for
each tax year (or part of a tax year) in the
taxable period. The tax is required to be paid
by any disqualified person (other than a
trustee acting only as a trustee of the trust)
who participates in the act of self-dealing.
3. An owner of more than 10% of (a) the
total combined voting power of a
corporation, (b) the profits interest of a

8. A trust or estate of which persons
described in (1) through (5) above own more

A tax of 21/2% of the amount involved is
imposed on a trustee who participates in the
act of self-dealing. The tax is not imposed if
the trustee unwillingly or due to reasonable
cause participated in the act. The tax is
computed on all acts of self-dealing that
occur within the taxable period. The tax is
required to be paid by the trustee who
participates in the act.
7. A payment by the fund for the
performance of trust functions and certain
general banking services by a bank or trust
company that is a disqualified person, if the
banking services are reasonable and
necessary to carry out the purposes of the

or trust company is not excessive
(considering the fair market interest rate for
the use of the funds by the bank or trust
company).
Exceptions. The initial tax on the act of
self-dealing of a disqualified person or a
trustee is not imposed if the acts of
self-dealing are corrected within the taxable
