Privacy Act Notice. —
Section 6109 requires most
recipients of dividends, interest, or other payments to give
taxpayer identification numbers to payers who must report the
payments to the IRS. The IRS uses the numbers for identification
purposes. Payers must be given the numbers whether or not
recipients are required to file tax returns. Payers must
generally withhold 28% of taxable interest, dividends and
certain other payments to a payee who does not furnish a
taxpayer identification number to a payer. Certain penalties may
also apply.

Penalties

(1) Penalty for Failure to Furnish
Taxpayer Identification Number. —
If you fail to furnish your taxpayer
identification number to a payer, you are subject to a penalty
of $50 for each such failure unless your failure is due to
reasonable cause and not to wilful neglect.

(2) Civil Penalty for False Information
with Respect to Withholding. —
If you make a false statement with no
reasonable basis that results in no imposition of backup
withholding, you are subject to a penalty of $500.

(3) Criminal Penalty for Falsifying
Information. — Wilfully
falsifying certifications or affirmations may subject you to
criminal penalties including fines and/or imprisonment.

CONSULTANT OR THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE.
