Special reporting date–clearing organizations. A
corporation must file Form 1099-CAP and furnish a copy
to each of its shareholders who receives any stock or
other consideration in the transaction and who is not an
exempt recipient. A clearing organization, such as the
DTC, is not an exempt recipient. The corporation is
therefore required to file and furnish a copy of Form
1099-CAP to a clearing organization with respect to
shares held by the clearing organization unless it makes a
consent election, as discussed below. Furnish Form
1099-CAP to the clearing organization by the due date
shown in the current General Instructions for Certain
Information Returns. If you are furnishing the DTC with
Forms 1099-CAP, see Notice 2004-9, 2004-04 I.R.B. 334,

obligations on nonresident aliens under section

CAUTION

Acquisition of Control
An acquisition of control of a corporation (first corporation)
occurs if, in a transaction or series of related transactions,
before an acquisition of stock of the first corporation
(directly or indirectly) by a second corporation, the second
corporation does not have control of the first corporation;
after the acquisition, the second corporation has control of
the first corporation; the FMV of the stock acquired in the
transaction and in any related transactions as of the date
or dates on which the stock was acquired is $100 million
or more; the shareholders of the first corporation receive
stock or other property pursuant to the acquisition; and
the first corporation or any of its shareholders is required
to recognize gain under section 367(a) as a result of the
transaction.
Penalties for Failure To File
The penalties under section 6652(l) for failure to file
information returns under section 6043(c) apply. For
purposes of the section 6652(l) penalty, Form 8806 and
all Forms 1099-CAP required to be filed are treated as
one return. Thus, the penalty will not exceed $500 for
each day the failure continues, up to a maximum of
$100,000, for any acquisition of control or any substantial
change in capital structure. If a corporation (transferor)
transfers all or substantially all of its assets to another
entity (transferee) and is required to file Form 1099-CAP,
the transferor must satisfy the reporting requirements. If
the transferor fails to file Form 1099-CAP, then the
transferee must meet the filing requirements. If the filing
requirements are not met by either the transferor or
transferee, then both are jointly and severally liable for the
applicable penalties.
For these purposes, control is defined as the ownership
of stock possessing at least 50% of the total combined
voting power of all classes of stock entitled to vote, or at
least 50% of the total value of shares of all classes of
stock.
See Form 8806 and Regulations section 1.6043-4 for
details and special rules with respect to constructive
ownership of stock.
Section 338 election. An acquisition of stock of a
corporation under which a section 338 election is made is
treated as an acquisition of stock and not as an
acquisition of the assets of the corporation.
Failure to file Forms 1099-CAP also includes the
requirement to file electronically. For more information on
penalties for failure to file electronically, see part F in the
current General Instructions for Certain Information
Returns.
