This document contains corrections to final regulations (T.D. 9446, 2009-9 I.R.B. 607) that were published in the Federal Register on Wednesday, February 11, 2009 (74 FR 6952) concerning gain recognition agreements filed by United States persons with respect to transfers of stock or securities to foreign corporations.
The final regulations that are the subject of this document are under section 367(a) of the Internal Revenue Code.
The final regulations (T.D. 9446) that were published in the Federal Register on February 11, 2009, inadvertently removed Treas. Reg. §1.367(a)-3T in its entirety rather than removing §1.367(a)-3T(e), (f)(1), (f)(2), and the second sentence of §1.367(a)-3T(f)(3). This document correctly adds the text of §1.367(a)-3T back into the Code of Federal Regulations.
