any time on or after July 25, 1991, and on
or before such date of enactment by the
taxpayer or a related person,
‘‘(ii) the intangible was acquired from

use such intangible to a person (or a per-
son related to such person) who held or
used such intangible at any time on or
after July 25, 1991, and on or before such
date of enactment.
For purposes of this subparagraph, the deter-
mination of whether the user of property
changes as part of a transaction shall be deter-
mined in accordance with regulations prescribed

apply to an intangible acquired by the tax-
payer but for the last sentence of subpara-
graph (C)(i), and
1401
‘‘(ii) the person from whom the tax-
payer acquired the intangible elects, not-
withstanding any other provision of this
title—
‘‘(I) to recognize gain on the dis-
position of the intangible, and
‘‘(II) to pay a tax on such gain
which, when added to any other in-
come tax on such gain under this title,
equals such gain multiplied by the
highest rate of income tax applicable
to such person under this title,
then subparagraph (A) shall apply to the
intangible only to the extent that the tax-
payer’s adjusted basis in the intangible ex-
ceeds the gain recognized under clause
(ii)(I).
‘‘(C) RELATED
PERSON
DEFINED.—For
purposes of this paragraph—
‘‘(i) RELATED
PERSON.—A person

TION.—A person shall be treated as related
to another person if such relationship ex-
ists immediately before or immediately
after the acquisition of the intangible in-
volved.

REASON
OF
DEATH.—Subparagraph (A) shall not apply to
the acquisition of any property by the taxpayer

PARTNER-
SHIPS.—With respect to any increase in the
basis of partnership property under section 732,

each partner shall be treated as having owned
and used such partner’s proportionate share of
the partnership assets.
‘‘(F) ANTI-ABUSE RULES.—The term ‘am-
ortizable section 197 intangible’ does not in-
clude any section 197 intangible acquired in a
transaction, one of the principal purposes of
which is to avoid the requirement of subsection
(c)(1) that the intangible be acquired after the
date of the enactment of this section or to avoid
the provisions of subparagraph (A).

such regulations as may be appropriate to carry out the

section through related persons or otherwise.’’
